THE COUNTRY AUNT.
MRS. GORIIAM iut down a letter
she bad been reading, aud looking
around tbe table at ber blooming daugh
ters and two tall handsome sons, she
said In a doleful tone :
" Your Aunt Sablna Is coming, and
bas Invited berself here without cere
mony." "Wheal" asked Arabella, with an
intonation of intense disgust.
"She will reach here this afternoon.
Wilbur you will have to meet her."
" Sorry ma, but I promised to drive
Miss Caldwell to the park. Fred can
go."
"Certainly, I will go," Fred said
gravely, though there was a hot flush
on his forehead. " I aru very fond of
auut."
" Nonsense 1" said his mother.
" You have not seen her for fourteeu
years, I never visited the detestable
old farm after your father died."
" Nevertheless, I have a vivid recol
lection of aunt Sabina'g kindness while
we were there."
"Dear me, Fred," drawled Lucilia,
"don't be sentimental. I wish tbe old
thing would stay at home. I can't im
agine what she is coming here tor."
" She is our father's sister," eald Fred
" and I cannot find anything surprising
in her looking for a welcome ampng her
brother's children."
Mrs. Oorham shrugged her shoulders.
If she had spoken her thought, it would
have been" Fred is so odd 1 ' Just like
his father." But she only said
" I may depend upon you, then, to
meet your aunt, Fred V I will see about
her room."
It was a source of great satisfaction to
Mrs Gorman that all her other children
were like herself. " Every one a 'Greer'
except F(ed," she would say, congratu.
latiug herself that the blood of "Gorman
pere," was not transmitted in the feat
ures of her elder son, Wilbur, or auy of
the three girls.
That Greer pride meant Intense self
ishness ; that Greer beauty was a cold,
bard type; that Greer disposition was
tyrannical and narrow-minded -did not
trouble Mrs. Oorliftm. That tbe son
who was "all Oorham" was proud to
the core with the pride that knows no
false shame; that be was noble in dis
position, handsome in a frank, manly
type, generous and self-sacrldcliig she
could not appreciate. His hands and
feet were not snsrntill as darling Wilbur's
he had no fuiliionable affectations and
no "Greer" look. Ho his mother
thought him coarse and rough, and his
sisters declared that he had no style at
all. Hut outside tbe home, where a
great show of wealth was made by many
private economies Fred was more appre
ciated. When he beenme a man, aud knew
that his father's estate, though sufficient
to give every comfort, was not large
enough for the extravagance his mother
Indulged in, he fitted himself for busi
ness and took a position in a counting
house, thus becoming self-supporting.
Darling Wilbur had studied law, but his
first client had not yet appeared, and
Mrs. Oorham supported him, trusting
his fascinations would touch the heart
of some moneyed belle. Miss Caldwell
was the present hope. She was her own
mistress, an orphan heiress, and very
handsome. That she seemed proud and
cold In manner was only an additional
charm to Mrs. Oorham ;. and Lucilia,
Arabella and Corlnne were enthusiastic
in their admiration of " Cornelia Cald
well's queenly manner."
Nobody suspected Fred.blunt.stralght
forward Fred hid one secret In bis heart
confessed to no living being. And that
secret was a love, pure and true, for
Cornelia Caldwell a love that would
shut Itself away from any suspicion of
fortune hunting that only drooped and
mourned thinking of the heiress.
By four o'clock Fred was at the sta
tion waiting for Aunt Sablna. What a
little old-faubloned figure she was, in
her quaint black bonnet and a large
figured shawl. But Fred knew her kind
old face at onco, though he had not seen
her since he was twelve years old.
"You are aunt?" he said, going
quickly to meet her.
She looked at the handsome face aud
caught a quick, gasping breath.
" You must be one of John's boys,"
she said. " How like you are to your
father."
WI am Fred," he answered.
" Dear heart I How you have grown I
Is your mother here V"
" She is waiting for you at home."
The good old couutry woman had
never had tbe least doubt of a warm'
welcome at ber brother's house, and
Fred certainly confirmed her expecta
tions. He found the old black leather
trunk, the bag the bandbox, the great
bulging cotton umbrella, and put them
in tbe carriage. He made his aunt go
to the restaurant aud refresh herself be
fore starting on the long drive home.
He listened with respectful interest to
all tbe mishaps of the long journey, and
sympathized with the " Ruination of
every mortal stitch I've got on, dear
with dust and smoke."
" And he chatted pleasantly of his
childish recollections of the tiny bouse
and wide farm where Sablna lived.
"You see," she said, I made up my
mind this year I would como to see you
all once more before I died. I would
have tried it before now, but something
or nuther alters hindered. Dear, dear 1
You're all grown up, I s'pose, and you
was but a lot p' babies last time John
brought you to see me."
. " Corlnne Is the youngest, and she is
eighteen. Wilbur is tho only one older
than I am."
" Yes, I remember. Well, dear, I'm
glad that John's wife brought up such a
fine family. I'm only-an old maid, but
I do love children."
But a chill fell upon the kindly old
heart when home was reached at last,
and four fashlonably-dressed ladled gave
her a strictly courteous greetlug. But
for the warm clasp of Fred's Land, I
think she would have returned to tbe
station In the same carriage she came, so
wounded aud sore she felt.
" Not one kiss," she thought, " and
Fred kissed me at the train, right before
all the folks."
Fred slipped a silver coin into the
hands of the servant girl who was to
wait upon his aunt, and promising an
other if she was very attentive, he him
self escorted the old lady to her room.
It was not often that the young man's
indignation found voice, though it grew
hot over many shameful acts of bard
selfishness In the house of his mother;
but he said some words on that day that
called a blush to the cheeks of tbe world
ly woroau.
It was not a very busy season, and
finding Sablna was likely to have a sorry
time if left to tbe other members of tbe
family, Fred asked for a holiday, and
-appointed himself the old lady's escort.
He was too proud to caw for the fact
that the qualut little figure on his arm
attracted many an amused glance, but
gravely stood by while a new dress for
Dolly, the dairymaid, and a city necktie
for Bob, the hired man, were being pur
chased. 1
He gave undivided attention to tbe
more lmHrtant selection of a new black
silk for aunty herself, and plenHantly av
nppted a blue silk searf, with largo red
spots, that was presented to him, appre
ciating the love that prompted the gift,
and mentally resolving to wear it when
he paid the promised visit to the farm.
He drove Aunt Sablna to the park and
took her to see all the sights.
Once or twice, meeting some of his
gentlemen friends, they had thought
" this queer old party Is some rich rela
tive, Oorhain is so attentive," aud had
delighted Sat ina by their deferential at
tention. ;
Once Fred had not counted on that
lu a picture gallery, Cornelia Caldwell
sauntered in alone. She had heard of
Sablna through the disgusted comments
of Lucilia, and knew she had bo prop,
erty but a " miserable, farm," but she
greeted Fred with a smile far more
cordial than ulie gave her admirers. A
great lump came lu Fred's throat. Then
he gravely Introduced the stately beauty
In her rustling silk to tiie little old fash
ioned figure on his arm.
" My aunt, Miss Oorham Miss Cald
well." They admired the pictures together,
and the young , lady was cordial and
chatty. After they came down the steps
Miss Caldwell said:
"You must let your aunt drive an
hour or two with me, Mr. Oorham. I
am going to do some shopping, so I will
not tax your patience by inviting you to
jolu us, but will be pleased, If Miss Oor
ham will dine with me, to have you call
for her this evening."
Then she smiled again, made Kahlua
comfortable In the carriage and drove ofT
leaving Fred forty times deeper In love
than ever, as she intended he should
be.
"He is a very prince of men," she
thought, " and I will give him one day's
rest. Bless the dear old soul I she has
such eyes as my dear old grandmother
has."
Then She wou Kahlua's confidence,
and found she was worrying about the
purchased of certain household matters
that would not go in the black leather
trunk, and she did notjlke to worry
Fred about it.
She'drove to the places wheVe the best
goods could be had, keeping guard over
the slender purse against all imposition
till tbe last towel was satiitfactorily cli oft
en and directed. Then she drove her
home and brought her in the room
where " grandmother " was queen,
knowing the stately old lady would
make the country woman welcome.
In the evening that followed Fred's
heart was touched and warmed till,
scarcely conscious of his own words, he
told his long cherished secret and knew
that he had won her love.
Aunt Sablna stayed two weeks and
then went home, to the immense relief
of the Oorhams, aud carrying with her
no regret at leaving any but Fred and
Cornelia.
It was not even suspected that Cor
nelia spent four weeks In the height of
the summer season listening to the
praises of Fred at Sabina's farmhouse ;
and Fred did not know it until he came
too, after she was gone, and had his
share of listening to loving commenda
tions of one he loved. He wore the
necktie and made himself so much at
home, that Sablna wept some of the
bitterest tears of her life when he left.
"To have you both and lose you!"
she sobbed.
" Next time we will come together,"
Fred whispered and so consoled her.
But alas I the next time Fred came
was to superintend the fdneral of tbe
gentle old lady and though Cornelia
came too, his happy wife, there was no
welcome in the pale lips, or the blue
eyes closed forever.
But the will the old lady Jefi gave all
her worldly possessions to her " dear
nephew, Frederick Oorham" the farm
and farmhouse. It was apparently no
great legacy, and Cornelia smiled at
many of the old fashioned treasures she
touched, all with the lender reverence
death leaves.
Teu years ago, Sablna was laid to rest
in her narrow coffin, and there in a busy
flourishing town around tbe site of the
old farm. Mr. Frederick Gorhom lives
there now, aud handles large sums of
money the rents of stately buildings.
"Made his money sir.by speculation,"
you will be told, if you inquire as to his
source of Income. "Fortunate pur
chases of ground before the town was
thought of."
But I tell you that the only specula
tion ho made was In the kindness of his
heart extending loving attentions to his
father's sister, and that the only land he
ever owned was Aunt Sablua't farm.

" My Influence."
Gather up try ivjlueiwe ' and bury it
with me," were the dying words of a
young man to the weeping friends at
his bedside, as stated tn the speaker
awhile since by one to whom he was
dear. What a wish was this! what
deep anguish of heart there ninst have
been as the young man reflected upon
his past life I-a life which had not been
what it should have been. With what
deep regrets must his very soul have
been filled as he thought of those young
men he had Influenced for evil! influ
ences which he felt must, If possible, be
eradicated, and which led him faintly
but pleadingly to breathe out such a
dying request "Gather up my Influ
ence and bury It with rpe."
My young friends, the Influence of
your lives, for good or evil, cannot be
gathered up by your friends after your
eyes are closed In death, no matter how
earnestly you may plead In your last
moments on earth. Your Influence has
gone out from you ; you alone were re
sponsible ; you had the power to govern
to shape; your influence no human be
ing can withdraw. Such a request can
not be fulfilled. It is Impossible. Your
relatives and friends cannot ''gather up
your Influence and bury it with you."
Young men, live noble, true, heroic,
lives. Possess this "moral courage" In
full proportions, and at all times
everywhere.
The Dram Shop.
Dr. dimming said : "What ought
not to be used as a beverage ought not to
be sold os such." Do what we, will to
strengthen ourselves and others against
temptation, we shall not outgrow the
need, for them aud for ourselves, of tho
Lord's Prayer: "Lead us not Into
temptation." And we believe that we
ought lo organize our prayers into ac
tions. It Is pitiable mockery for us to
ask the Lord to keep men from tempta
tion when we set up dram shops, by tbe
authority of the State, at every corner
la our large cities, to tempt, not only
the strong and educated, but the weak
and the Ignorant, the reformed, and our
own Innocent children. God only
knows who may be the victims! We
have a merciful Father in heaven ; but
He is too wisely merciful to divorce tbe
greatest of His children from a common
bond with tbe least, and too wisely mer
ciful to reverse any of the eternal laws
of retribution. We are sowing to cor
ruption : we shall reap a harvest of de
struction. . . .
Another There.
A notoriety-seeker was badly sat upon
in tbe presence of a large social gather
ing which was discussing conflicting
creeds. One said he was a Catholic, orje
claimed to be a Presbyterian, a third, a
Unitarian, and the notoriety seeker said
with a kind of swagger :
" And I belong to no church at all. I
believe in no religion at all. I believe
In nothing at all, and I suppose I am
the only one in this company who can
so think."
"No, sir," said sflady to him in a loud
voice, " you are not the only one here
who so thinks of religion ; there is an
other here."
The nothingarian wanted to know
who it was.
" My dogjying there under the table"
answered the lady.
That man hadn't another word to say.
Christ Our Only Rest.
My heart can have no rest, unless it
leans on Jesas Christ wholly. But lam
apt to leave my resting-place, and when
I ramble from it, my heart will quickly
brew up mischief. Some evil temper
now begins to boil, or some care would
fain perplex me, or some deadneas or.
some lightness creeps upon my spirit,
and communion with my Saviour ia
withdrawn. When these thorns stick
In my flesh, I do not try to pick them
out with my own needle, but carry all
complaints to Jesus. His office is to
save, and mine to look for help. John
Berridge,
0 The only true wisdom for boy or
man is to bring the whole life Into obe
dience to Christ, whose world we live
in, and who has purchased us with
his blood. Or as Dr. Bushnell has
said of the putting on of Christ as the
garment of a needy soul : " There can
be no choosing out here of shreds aud
patches from his divine beauty; you
must take the whole suit, else you can
not put him on. The garment Is seam,
less and cannot be divided."
