PRISCILLA COMES. A col.) gray sliy, the clouds droop low, Before the wind the white lUkea tly, And yet the sweet world smiles, ng'.ow, And blithe and swift my heart boats hi#)* I step as If I beard the drums Exultant, marching down the street, For homo to-day my darling comes, To clasp my neck with kisses sweet The laggard hours I measure by The stations where they stop her train, As stroko by stroke It brings her nigh, My darling, homo to me again. I buy and sell, and shyly hold My secret safe whero none may see, The stock unprized in worthless gold, That means far more than gold to ma The cat curls up against the pane, The flowers shake out their odors sweet. For wee Priscilla comes again, Small princess whom her vassals greet The house was very still last week, With wife and baby both away; The very walls are fain to speak. And shout their welcome home to-day. Twos core am I, and growing bald: Iler lifo has scarce three winters known. And she by my plain name is called. And I, than monarch on a throne Am prouder far, and envy none 1 walk as if I heard the drums, For home to-day. at set of sun, My little maid Priscilla comes, —Margaret E. Sangster, In Harper's Bazar. mwm EY£>B'BUf\Gin [Copyright, IH9I, by the Author.] The way wound through a long lane of pink chestnuts, the spikes of which were just bursting into bloom. Be yond the lane was a leafv avenue of trees bordered on each side by green fields, through which sparkled a little river, blue with the sapphire tint of the spring sky. Along the road came raonv men. of all kinds and degrees; also women in strange costumes and huts wherein blue feathers of fantastic shapes largely abounded; most of them bent upon the enjoyment of sunshine and sweet air. Somo of the men rode noiseless little bicycle , others drove high-stepping ponies; and there were still others seated behind broken-down horses, which, hired for the day. pain fully dragged themselves along, their large eyes wistfully gazing at the green of the fields by the roads id \ or the seductively cool overhanging branches. It was "first day;" the day of rest for everything but patient beasts of burden; a uay of rest for dappled kine in the shallows, for dogs lazily sunning themselves before the alehouse door; for world-worn dames in white mob caps by the porch of the "Poor Cot tages;" for bowl egged laborers spent with their week's work. Presently from out the "Poor Cot tages" came sweet Grissel Gray, with the aged mother who had given of her fiibstunce to the needy until she had naught left to give; and so took no shame to her .elf that she accepted not the aid of her Quaker friends, but dwelt in the "Poor Cottages." For although the Quakers are a thri.ty folk, they like not to sec their poorer brethren dependent on other aid than theirs. But the "Poor Cottages" had been given for the use of Amerton by one Guy do Burton, the record of whoso good deeds lived after him through the ages. The "Poor Cot tages" and a stone tomb in Amerton church bore eloquent testimony to his memory. No mail-clad knight had he been, but n pious palmer from the Holy Laud, whose effigy lay recumbent on a marble tomb beneath the old stained glass window of the church, a palm branch on his breast, and in his hands u fragment of Holy Cross. On this "lir.-:t day" morn as sweet Grissel Gray and her mother, chid in dove-hued garments, entered the sun shine, the mother leaning on the maiden's arm, a fair-faced youth of twenty came from behind the old oak at the churchyard gate. His eyes were blue as speedwell, his hair fair and curling, his features resolutely firm yet comely to behold. He was clad in homely gray, ami bore a stout oaken staff in his hand. Slowly he came to wards them, drinking in the quiet beauty of the maid, and deeming it a part of God's sunshine as her f.„ir hair strayed tendril wise from out the 200l depths of a lavender bonnet and fluttered round the white kerchief pinned across her breast. "God's dove!" he murmured reverently, and gave mother and daughter greeting. The maiden's blue eyes looked into his with tender trust. Her mother took his arm, and Grissel fell behind us they mounted the hill with slow steps, for the breeze began to die awa} god the day was hot. At the top of the hill reverend Friends awaited them with outstretched -&r tt>A n "GOD'S DOVE," nrc lIUBMURED. hands of welcome and tender care. 3tliera entered the little wicket leading to the meeting house and placed fresh flowers upon the quiet graves of loved ones gone upon their journey of all •Jays. The old bell of the church in the village below gave forth its clang ing ns to prayer; the cuckoo called from a neighboring copse; and the tall elm by the meeting house sh wered down a benison of blossom on the folk below as they entered the rustic porch and sat within the rigor orously plain aud simple building. At the end opposite the door were croee- i benches for the ministers, male and fe ' male, the women sitting 1 to the left, and the men to the right. As the vari ous families of Friends entered, the women and girls turned to the right, the men and boys to the left. All the seats were of plain deal, the grain of the wood showing darkly. In the wood j itself were quaint shapes, huge lizards, ■ lakes and mountains, and gruesome animals grievous to behold. In frout j of the benches, at a green-covered ! table, sat some one appointed to read a chapter of Iloly Writ if the meeting were "silent." The walls were pan neled and of varnished deal. Stray beams of sunlight came through the windows, which were live feet from the ground, and danced across it in fantastic motes. Even the little chil dren sat quietly there to worship God "in spirit and in truth." They did not shuffle their feet about or cough or play like other little children, but sat, with solemnly sweet eyes, holding theii parents' hands. One little child, the youngest of the flock, slumbered in its mother's arms. Presently the woman, still holding the child, rose up, aud, in tones of silver sweetness, uttered her I leaven-born message. A stray child from the village looked in at the open porch, and, frightened at the universal ; quietude, ran softly away. Silence brooded over the little gathering, a silence which was only broken by the rustling of the boughs against the leaded windows. One of the iniuisters sat with closed eyes, his fine, serious face upturned to Ileaven. At half-past twelve, there was a soft rustling of gray robes as of angels speeding upward. The male minister on the right hand shook hands with the female minister on his left. Then the women, the light falling on their rapt shining faces, moved slowly away down the path, lingering here and 111 wk t MFW ¥ HWf i IIJL, TIIE YOUTH WAS BESIDE HER chere to exchange a few gentle words with each other. The men followed, nost of tliein clad in somber black or Jrab. but with very few outward 'narks of distinction from their fellow beings save thick, soft, snowy cravats wound closely round about their throats. Ten minutes after, the meet ing house was empty. . for a few minutes, Grissel's mother sat in the porch, thinking, as her cus tom was, of all the dead Friends buried around. The :ainshine fell so lovingly on their giaves, their peace was so eternal, that the shadow of death ap palled her not. Grissel moved from jiie grave to another, her dove-like eyes full of brooding peace. Aud ever as she walked the. youth was beside her. Where she stayed he ling..red also. When she moved on his sturdy steps kept pace with hers. He said nothing, but his eyes were ever on the maiden's face. Insensibly they came back to the porch and stood hand in hand be fore Grissel's mother, the maiden's eyes filled with happy tears. "Mother," said the youth, gently. "Mother, lean on me, and we will journey together always." Then Grissel's mother arose ami blessed them: "My children! 'May the Lord bless thee and keep thee; the Lord make His face to shine upon thee; the Lord lift up the light of llis coun tenance upon thee, anil give thee peace!' " '1 lie youth and maiden bowed their heads to receive the blessing. A •uckoo's wandering voice wooed them woodwards, tall trees nodded and bent to them, a butterfly hovered over Oris .del ere fluttering away into the blue. The youth gave his arm to Grissel's mother. Grissel walked beside theiu iown the hill until tliey came to the "Poor Cottages." The mother went upstairs, leaving Grissel and her lover j together. He opened liis arms, and she ! 'luttered softly to his breast. The Transom Did It. "What is the matter with you?" said the Pickings man to an acquaintance he met the other day, who was looking a little down in the mouth.
