That leads to heaven and Thee.

The brother man. I lie pitying friend.
Who weep for human woe,
Whine pleading nords of pardon blend
With cries of ruing for.
If, 'tnld the gathering sturme of doubt,
Our hearts grow faint and cold.
Tliestrengili we cm not live without,
Thy love will not withhold.
Our prayers accept, our sins forgive,
Our joiitliful coul renew,
8lniie for us boiler Urea to live,
And nobler work to do.
How Grandma Went Home.
Dear old G minima Jackson, like
everybody clue, bad the grippe, and
hnil it bndly, loo. She iliil not die,
but alio came nenr it. After a long
tlino, when llio doctor allowed her to
croon down-Main, weak and wliito
mid wuti, licr ooc mind wu filled
with the queerest iio ioii. She thought
alie was making a visit at tier brothor's
in Now Hampshire.
L)ny nfiuf day alio spout In tlio big
rocking-chiilr ut tlio sitting-room whi
tlow, gazing out ut tlio familiar street
willi m Nt ful, dim blue eyes, nud
keeping up it pitiful in ti t-tn it i of "Oil,
if I could only go hoiiii ! I know I
Should get bolter right straight oil', if
they'd only Just let mo go homo !"
Grandpa, in bis seat opposite, wor
ried inucli over licr unhappy fancy.
There were even moments wliou alio
did not recogulzi him, but bent upon
liim, too, the sumo troubled look, na if
a strange face had suddonly replaced
that wliicli she I mil known and loved
o long.
Diu't you think wo'd bolter bo
talking of going homo, father?" slio
would ask every iiiorulng In mi noxious
whisper. lt aoom to mo wu'vo been
here loo long now, and thoie's no
sense in wearing out your welcome. 1
guess Ezra's l'olks'll npvnr want to set
eyes on us again; nud I aliould like to
get back to Itoalon pretty soon. There's
nil my spring cleaning to see to. Oil
dear I I do want to got home!"
Well, but mother" the old gentle
in i n wjuld begin; but she went on
wl.heut heeding him. -
"Ezra's wife is woll-iiicunlng
enough, but she's dreadfully wealing,
and lb hi bod up iu llio north cliumbor
la hard at a pi no log. Now Unit I'm
feeling poorly, seems as If J'd like to
got back to my own bod. There Isn't
one to compare with It in this place
all livo gnoo feathers, every one of
'em! O rutlicr, I don't belluvo I shall
over get any stronger here! AVon't
you seo if you can't in on ago to tuko mo
homo omoliow ?"
Thus sho kept up her never-ending
homesick cry. Tlio sunshiny May
days ciimo and wenl, llio elms on the
Common tossed thoir boughs agnlnsl
'tlio bluest of blue skies, children
played once moro in the long mulls
with shouts of liuigliier, wandering
buuds flooded tho nir with music, the
world whs filled with the Joy of
apringtime.
But tlioro were ilecpenliig wrinklos
on tho geutlo old face boiieiuh the soft
while cap that res tod on still softer
wliito hair, mid grandma's shrivelled
bands, busied with their knlitliip,
trembled mull (ha ueodles glittered in
the ami.
A nolo of despair had crept into her
longing fur homo. Slio could soo
from her placo at the window tho
Common growing green and tho ru.h
of sunlight lighting up overy cornor
of tho stroct to which she had come us
a bride half a century before.
Ibis was the house whore all her
ohildrou wore born, where soino of
them had died. In tills vory room
Baehel and Martha had beeu murrlod
many a year ago. Hare her boys hud
clung to her neck with tears, as one
by one they had said godd-by to her
and gone out into the world to mako
their fortunes.
Loving momories were associated
with tlio vary chairs and tables. But
to grandma's bewildered and failing
alght they were only strange, unfa
miliar shapes.
"I want to go borne!" she mourned
till. "I want to go home!"
The doctor shook Ills head oue day
as be strapped up his case of medi
cines and draw on his driving gloves.
Miss Lyilla had followed him out into
the entry.
"You dou't think she's falling, doc
tor, do you?" she asked with a sudden
dread.
'Well, I don't know. Her mind la
woarlng out her body, and if slio does
u't gel over tho bleu that she isn't at
homo soon, I'm afraid slio may break
down under tho strain. The only
thin to bo done Is to give her nour
ishing food and keep her as cheerful
as you cnn. Good morning t"
Tho doctor hurried away.
Miss Lydlu turned slowly bnek to
tho silting room. Thoe few words
bad removed scales from her eyes, as
it were. Slio realized with n pn-'g
how worn the dour figure by the win
dow had grow u of late, nud how her
mother's strange delusion bad tight
ened Its hold weuk by weok.
Slio went about her work all day
with a weight nt her heart, an tin.
spoken pruyer on her lips. Anxious
Miss Lyillu, an old maid lit the old
homo, was returning to her parents
the lender, untiring caro which they
bad bestowed on her as a child.
Through tho long night she lay
awake, wondering l( nothing could bo
done to c ear away the cobwebs from
that poor befogged brain. In the
early dawn an Inspiration enme to her
si happy that sho breathed a deep
algli of relief, and fell asleep only to
bi aroused by tho birds twittering In
the vines omsido, and a broud lay of
sunllif lit drifting across her face.
As soon na she was dicsscd alio hur
ried Into her mother's room and drow
the curluins aside briskly, Ictti ig I is a
flood of light and the warm, sweet
morning air.
"Well, mother." sho crloil, cheerily,
"llils Is a splendid day tor your Jour
ney, Isn't It? You know you're going
homo today !''
"Why, so I nml'' said grandma,
Willi a sinilo of childish delight as sho
sat up in bod. "1 dccluro I'd almost
forgot about it. Seems as if llio time
would never come! Wo nron't going
till after break fust ore we, Lydlu? I
hope you'll seo that your father's
ready. He's growing very slipshod In
his ways lutoly."
'Oh, he's at homo already," an
swered I .yd hi. llii wants to be on
hand when you get there."
So grandma roso In a state of ex
citement, to lako her toa and toast mid
a dropped egg with a rollsli sho had
n it shown since her Illness.
Then she was ilroased ns If for n
journey, In licr best black cashmere,
c unci's hair shawl, tho big bluck bon
net witli the purple violots within tho
brim, tho shiny ono-button . black
gloves, hor ovorshocs, and the little
worslod work-bag on hor linn to hold
her "specs," her haudkoreliiof and
her porto-moiiuaie. She was roady to
it out.
Miss Lyilla took bur arm, and they
sturlod slowly, slowly down the long
II14I1I of alali a.
Sho helped hor down the front steps
liidiiig to tho sldowulk, tulking to hor
all tho time about hor return home,
nud keeping her attentions uwuy from
t'10 scones ubout hor. Then sho liolped
hor into a carryall that stood waiting.
"I'll warrant that when wo get
there," said Lytlin, after tlioy wore in
the carriugo, "fuihor'll bo waiting for
us at tho top of tlio steps."
Tlio drit-or took 11 turn around tho
block, and returned to tlio houso ho
had lust left.
'Well, hero we nro at lust," said
Lydlu. "It's been a pretty long mid
tlrosomo luui noy, but I guoss you've
rood it pretty well."
For un instance tlio old lady seemed
dazed. But Lydlu culled out, "Well,
If lliore alut father, juitas I said he'd
bo!" Graudma caught sight of him
rubblug his huuds at tho lop of tho
stops.
Ha was looking for us, suro
ouough!" sho snld.
They helped her out and up the
stops. All tho rest of tho family had
been taken into the plot. Cynthy
Ami, tho hired girl, came out buhiud
grandpa.
"Well, well, motliorl" said grandpa,
stepping forward and taking hor bunds
iu his, then stooping to leave a kiss
upon the faded cheek, "it does seom
nico to get you back again. I thought
you was nover coming. Aren't you
tired after your ride? Come right
'nto the sitting-room and tuko oiryour
things."
Well, Mis' Jackson," jolnod in
Cynthy Ann, "I've tried to keep 'em
straightened out whilst you'vo been
gone, but I'm mighty tickled to git
you home again. Wouldn't you like
it dish o' loaf 'Twould kinder rest
you after eomln' such a ways."
Grandma' face lighted up with
pleusuro. She was led luto the sitting
room uureslstlngly. Glancing about
with deep satisfaction sho sank into
her rocking-chair and drew a long
breath of happiness.
Lydla look off hor things, then
brought the whit cap lo tie on lov.

Hint tho Augers could begin theli

The old lady looked out throngh tbt

"Well, there's no better ploco thai

Sho laughed again. It did Lydla't
heart good to hear her.
"But tlioie's one qneor thing about
my being up'at Ezra's. I en u't seem
to remember how 'twas I ever name t

But In most cusot of this sort which
1110 brought to his attention, the
physician Hods nothing out ot tho way

As uaympton, palpitation Is valuable
to tho physician in that it directs the
attention of tho patient to the heart.
An unusual sensation in this region
usually lends 0110 to consult his phy
sician nt once. Symptoms folt In
other purls of tho body usually wait
for "tlio more convenient seuson."
itjetor Austin Flint was ouco sum

heart disoase. Tho family luforiuod
