A VISION.
It is mi Hi in a, and with delicious plans
tiro I arise aofi wander into the wmod
land and behold, what a bowildnrlng
sight moots oy gtizo! I look Into the
distance and the hills, that uoMd, In
tholr wldoswoop, tho colored Intxtenpe,
seemed iike)cings In purplo and fid.
I have the;gay company of 'thelroos,
tinted front the palo yellow to rich
gold and bnewn, mingled with the rich
dark green of the firs, the chirp (if the
squirrel, tto rustling of tho tinted trees,
and the rippling of the little brooklot
atmyfoet,nd at last I see tho sun,
which t II J adds more beauty to the
soene, slowly sinking to bis ret.
Alt atoerce mothlnks I see the beau
tiful mountains change iotooae rugged
steep and, as if led on by some unseen
power, Ifir-d myself climbing the stoop
one stop t a time, oim step 'forward,
then one hackward, but now And then
gaining a ftttlo until, at last weary and
worn out reach the top ad there I
And a slgfet never before surpassed, but
reminding .oie somewhat of the one I had
left behind. AH at once I aot startled at
being touched by a soft hand and turning
around I see a beautiful ell w&o Imme
diately boffins to bind up say wounded
hands and feet. I ask the (question,
"Why a I bore?" She answered,
"You have 'been on a long Journey and
bave now wached the aututaa of Life.
Led on by .a noble purpose you have
climbed the rugged steep aod are now
on the border land of fame." At last I
am awakened and find the beautiful
river and accnery I had see "to be the
rippling brook and the tandaeape at my
foot, and the elf my little sister.
With some regret at flndiiur myself
still at the Aeottom confronted by the
rugged stoep.of lire, I turn hoaueward,
but not without a deep Inspiration and
determination, to go onward, if but gain
ing a little at time, until I reach the
blessed Autumn of Life. '00.

of young Mr. Holmd-ao, Commander

proof ngninat flattery, so I exprepsnd an
interest in Mr. So-and-so, nnd told her
she might bring him to foe me some

" 'It would he nit's if he con Id oome

A MOST PECULIAR CASE.

Ike Attorney's Hill.
"Most peculiar case I ever had,"
mused the attorney who is still n favor
ite with those requiring a strong de
fenso in the criminal conrts. " Yon nev
er sawn finer looking yonng fellow. He
had a good face nnd a weUahaped head.
He was olefin and neatly dressed. He

from the first that be had never com

he stood aconied.
"He told me his story, frankly and
without reservation. I was eonvlnoed
more firmly than ever of bis Innocence.
He outlined his own def once by account'

ni(bt of the robbery and informing
me jnit where thewitnesxes to snbstan

by tbe jury's firet ballot. He was very- -grateful,
shaking hands with the judge

" 'Now, sir,' be began, when we bad.:
reached the office, 'what do I owe you?4'
" 'Only wbat you can afford to pay
me. Tbe saving of an innocent man is
something of a reward in itself.' -.
" 'Well, 1 would like to pay yon
more, but at present I can only afford
