and the deepeht xorrow that can come
into a woman's lifn an I Mot out for
ever tho isuiihhino from the pathway!
And hhu was thinking of tho jiast
to-ni-ht, this ChristiniiH time, when
every one was happy in thu (society of
their dear nncH, and when love and
joy were the theme of every hymn and
nullum that was miu in thu ureut

wreathH of holly and ivy uu.l box,
and tho vicaritK" children had helped
her, pricking their umall lingers with
the hharp holly loavee, and tying her
htritiKiuto tuuumerabletauglod knots.
Yet tiho loved thetn ho much, thu
darlingH, that hIio was only too hajipy
to havo theui uear her, to hear their
littlo bright voices, to Bee their roHy

Enid."
"Wo love you so much, you know,"
gray-oyed Angela had fiuid, "that we
wuut to do all we can, and it itm't very
much, but we doea our best."
And lioliby had broken iu with un
account of (ho Christmas card that hu
meant to send Misu Enid very gor

Hiiniliir treasures tho children's morn

Miss Enid thanked htm before and,
htooping down to kiss tho bonny lit

would like it very much, and would
keep it always iu memory of him.
"That's right," the little boy said,
heartily. " Iih quite tue proper
thing to say, isu t it, Martorie?
And Marjorio and Angela nodded
assent as the niire came to carry them
oil' homo to tho vicarago tea.
Miss Enid had declined their en
thustabtio invitation to accompany
them something had neiit her
thoughts back to tho pust with a uud
tleu rush of memory, and tuo Huene
around seemed fctrungcly drcumlike
and unreal. Sho fai-teued np tho long
ends of her wreath and put ou her
cloak, and then, before her flight was
noticed, she clipped away, out into
tho darkness and the btilluess of the
winter's evening. Shu wanted to be
aloue, to think- nho hud uot hud much
time to think lately, there wan always
so much to do ; and then the had been
glad of it before, for tho memories of
Christmas time were pouernlly ead
ones, liut now sho longed for quietude,
for tho sympathy of her own thoughts
and of the dreamt of that bitter sweet
past, the post that bad so strangoly
affected all ber life.

And onoa in her ooty oak parlor, in
her own chair by the bright fireside,
he lay back with half closed eyea and
gave herself np, for a brief time at
any rate, to the memory of , the past.
It wais not a very eventful past, after
all, that the children's talk of Christ
maa had bronght back to her.
She was young thru, thut was all,
and life was rose-tinted with health
and happiness and should sho con

she believed that love had come to
her, an it comes once, and only onoe

depths of Mist Enid's heart tho fnoo

Aud fcho fancied sometimes that he
meant to toll her to, that the words
had trembled 011 his lips, tho words
that would havo changed her life aud
his ho greatly t Sho hud road part of
his story iu his eyes clear, grave
eyes that were truth and honesty it
self and yet ho had never uttered
what his heart surely knew well, aud
she had never listened to the sweetctst
words that tho human ear can hear.
For tho old, old reason. lie was
poor aud proud, and ho wanted, oh I
no much, to win ho ior and futno for
his lovo and ho had gono on, mean
ing perhaps to toll nor if the oppor
tunity otlere 1 beforo the end. And
suddenly their porting had come, and
sue had known that ho must go away
from her. He had told her so hi in
self, walking home from the old church
at Christmas time, under tho stars.
"Wish me God-speed, will you not?"
ho had asked her, and her goutie voieo
had bidden him farewell quietly and
evenly, so that he never knew how
deep was tho pain iu the loving heart,
or how near tho tears wero to the
pretty eyes that strove so bravely to
biuilo on hitu for thu last time. And
now, ho thought to himself, how he
would tell her everything 1 lie would
ask her to wait for him, to be his wife
when he ciiruo back again with fame
aud fortune to lay at her feet. And
tho stars shone down ou them as they
went up the quiet lane, as if to bless
his plan.

little guessed, poor child, tho sorrow 1
had only been time for "Good-by" at
the gate, for he would not eome in,
he saidonly "Good-by" and a trem
ulous hand shake and he was gone.
And Miss Enid's love story had
never really begun it had only been
a dream, perhaps, who was to know?
So the long years had passed, tak
ing one by one of her loved ones
away, as the autumn takos the flowers
that are wearied with the long, long
summertime, nntil she was left alone
-alone in the pretty old house where
the swallows built nnder the eaves in
the spring, aud where the garden was
ablaze with roses and syringa and
clematis all through the summer. And
the children of tho village were her
friends, and the vienrage babies came
and grew np like flowers around her,
weaving themselves into her calm,
sweet life, so she had something to
love, and no one ever knew how some
tiraos she longed and yearned nntil her
heart felt almost breaking for what?

Christmas Day broke white and
culm and beautiful, for snow had
fallen in tho night and the whole world
was shining. And Miss Enid, as she
sat ut her solitary breakfast table,
hearing a uumber of voices without,
smiled expoctantly. Were not tho
children coming to give her Christmai
presents, and would they not bo de
lighted with tho purchases that she
had made for them? And she glanced
towards a pile ot neatly wrapped par
cels with some pleasure they were
just tho things that she knew they
wuuted. As the door burst opon, tho
four children crashod in, in even
wilder spirit than Christmas Day
usually called forth.
"Merry Kis'mas, Merry Kis'mas,"
shouted Bobby, holding up his rosy
mouth for a kiss. "We've got a big
present for you, such a beauty ; mother
said you would liko him.
"Hush, Bobby," the little girls said
hastily ; "Miss Enid, dear, dou't mind
what he says. Mother s love aud all of
ours, aud oh I" forgetting all thoir de
tail roness and flinging two pairs ot
arms around her neck at onoe, "we'll
bring it this uiinuto. Promise that
you'll bo pleased."
But Miss Euid'a promise was never
made, for at that instant the door
opened again, and some one, tired of
waiting oetside, eame inl
There was a shout from the cVflJren,
and a cry, a glad, atartled, tender ery,
from Miss Enid and then everything
else was forgotten, and the astonished
bairnes sawtbelr friend's slender form
clasped closoly in the arms of the
"present," who was usually called by
them "Uncle Edward."
"Darling, darling," they heard him
say, and just tden Angela, with wonder
ful tact, discovered the pile of parcolr
addressed to each of tbem. and sug
gested that they should carry them
into the kitchen to show to old Jennie,
which the children were nothing loth
to do, leaving tho lovers alone to thoit
wonderful new-found bliss I
"And I've forgettod to give h er my

Poisoned by u Flower.
A singular case was that of thit actor,
Mr. Joseph Whoeloek, who some four
or live years ago was said to havo been
bewitched by a tlower. While travel
ing iu tho West iu pursuit of his pro
fession ho suddenly developed peculiar
symptoms. Ho could not bleep, ex
cept by taking occastoual uups at ir
regular intervals. Toward midnight,
ut tho closoof the performance, though
usually a calm, phlegmatic man, bo
would become unusually talkative, de
monstrative aud full of enthusiasm.
Ho was usually a man of few words,
but on these occasions he would grow
very tlueut and redundant in expres
sion. Ho would relate to his friends mar
velouely eloquent descriptions oi
scenes and incidents. In diagnosing
his caso some physioians said that the
covering of tho actor's brain was in
flamed, others said tbat he had in
some way absorbed into his system
some deadly poison. The last named
explanation proved to be tho true one.
It seems that two weeks previously,
while tho company was passing
through Washington, D. C, the Su
perintendent of the National Botani
cal Gardens invited Mr. Wheelock to
bo presont at the unfolding of a night
blooming oereus.
Tho aotor accepted tho invitation.
At the conclusion of the phenomenon
the suporintendeut invited Mr.
Wheelock to take tho flower. Takiug
a penknife from his pocket, the aotor
cut the flower from its stotu. In do
iug so ho indicted a slight cut upon
his right thumb, and iu this way he
became inoculated with tho juice of
the flower, which is very powerful aud
if distilled for use as a bomeopathio
medicine. The actor hud also pre
served the flower in alcohol, keeping
it near his bed, thus inhaling tho
slight vapor and emphasizing the in
fluence of the deadly drug. Hoineo
pasbists say that there are one or two
oases where men have purposely placed
themselves tinder the stimulus of this
poison for its effect upon their brain,
and while under its influence have dic
tated weird poetry aud extravagant
romance. The Independent.
