If we knew the cares and crosses Crowding round our neighbor's way; If we knew the little losses, Sorely grievous day by day, Would we then so often chide him For the lack of thrift and gain— Leaving on his heart a shadow, Leaving on his soul a stain? If we knew the cloud above us, Held by gentle blessings there, In our blind and weak despair? Would we shrink from little shadows, Lying on the dewy grass, While ’tis only birds of Eden, Just in mercy flying past? If we knew the silent story. Quivering through the heart of pain, Would our womanhood dare doom them Back to haunts of guilt again? Life hath many a tangled crossing, Joy hath many a break of wo, Cheeks, which are tear washed, are whitest, This the blessed angels know. Let us reach into our bosoms For the key to others’ lives, And with love toward erring creatures, Cherish good that still sury So that when our disrobed spirits Soar to realms of light again, We may say, dear Father, judge us, As we judged our fellow mon, C85 | pole” rule of constancy appl* Select Viterature, Would we turn nwityralletrembling, | arm clasped her close, and its mate struck out boldly for the shore. Now you will suppose, according to the invariable rule of such affairs, Lam going to tell you that these two, at the instant ol their mecting in the limpid element, so near + to Letty, * looked into one another's eyes,” and straightway discover- ed they loved each other. No such thing. Letty, at the moment Such an event should have taken place, Was most unromantically saugling, and ejecting the water trum mouth, uose, and eyes, Which, in other heroines, always so opportunely expressive. Yet, as the Steady strokes brought them nearer safety, and she in some degree revived, she tlt Pthe delightil strength of the arm which held her so firmly, and glanced at the quiet face, and found there a beauty she had never seen belore, I fear the irresistible Kingsbury lost im- measnrably in the comparison, and ce tainly one more in love than Letty had been, an hour before, might have torgotten that he was so very handsome, as he stood rather sheepishly gn the shore when they at length reached it. “Thank you, sir!” But her steady glance at Harding point- ed and limited the words, _ Kingsbury offered the pretty dripping little figure the as: ance of his arm, but it was declined, and the three sought the house where, after the first spasm of aur. agement, the motherly aid of Mrs. Arue,jo:, furnished dry garments, and seated, tliont shugly a! tea, that night.

Kingsbury felt a Jittle his “ oice instead, but concluded it was be- ed'ase she did not wish even the rival of a wool to share his eyes. The truth was reading was not among the gentleman's fortes. Letty had discovered that he read in a singularly soulless, tasteless manner, as different as possible from the one who now poured out the thoughts of the author he held, The shadows of the trees had crept allover the cottage porch. Letty sprang up. “Oh my berries! Mother will want them for tea, and they are on a log over atthe ‘yveach.’ All your fault, sir.” and she shook her finger playfully at Harding. ‘A fault I will endeavor to expiate by going alter them straightway,” returned he, ‘Ah, thatis much easier said than done. How are you going to find them whea you get there? They are quite hidden from sight, and you might huntall night in such a jun sie without a glimpse of them. — Twill take the boat and row across, and, if you like, you can come down to the beach and wait for me.” The tiny boat had but a single seat in the middle, and would yery comfortably hold but one, though two persons might be smuggled upon it. Letty did net by any means covet such un arriungement, 50 the utmost the gallants could do was to assist her in and push the shallop afloat, | The pond was not above a fourth of a mile from end to end, so it y hot long before the light craft had left the lilies, which fringed deeply the edges, quite .be- hind, and rode in the smooth, deep water of the centre. A certain pricking about the head made Letty aware that the pins which bound her hair were becoming loose Hers was one of those few heads graced vy long, heavy, shining coils of original hair, most dificult to restrain from its natural downward tendency. Shipping her ours for a moment, she took olf her bonnet, but her hair was farther gone than she had imagined, and the little avalanche of coils rolled triumphantly down, one long end reaching down to'the water. “There, now, they will think I did that just for effect!” thought Letty, with a weird consciousness of the two spectators on shore, She began hastily to gather it up, but it wasnot so etsy amatter; the treach- erous pins had to be sought out among the hair, and she almost forgot she was in a boat over waters thirty feet deep, A creeping coldaess over her fect made her start undlook down. Merciful Heaven ! ‘The water was swiltly rising in the frail cratt; already itv beyond the lattice of her shoe. Her heart sank down within her, silent and cold, then it rose again with a hot, aching bound; she stood up in the trembling boat, aud stretched her bare white arms towards the shove, « Kingsbury —Cariton, heip mo!” As the ery tloated to the land, the two w forthe first time her tearful str 1e man to whom she had appealed ¢ ed his hands in nervous, incapable dr but the other, though his teeth wer set, and his lace covered with gray ness, flung away coat and boots, and was in the water, forcing himself through it with mighty strokes, as il it wore his own life he sought to save. : There was good need, for even with this speed he did not reach her before the boat had sunk fur below the water's sur- face, and the bright head, though strug- rling wildly to ged itself up in the free essed air, and had gone down and risen up for tho-first of those three terrible times allotted to the drowning, in which, per- chance, succor may come before they sink down into the depths, while and stark, forever beyond all aid.

It was to him she had called in her agony, and why had he not come? Yes, why? ‘Phat question can never be answered to Letty in such a manner as to bring back her old feeliue towards its subject, f But we, who have nothing to do with the matter, may dispassionately inquire how it was that Carlton Kingsbury, being, as he considered himself, very much in love with Letitia Arn » Was not the first to fiy to her im her deadly peril? Well, in the first place he was not’ by nature a prompt and courageous man. © All his life long he had stood by and seen other meu fill up br haye been, Jn that kuight-errantry pecu- ligv.only.to the parlor carpet. he was ins else. “Then, also, if he loved Letty Arns- den, he loved himselfimuch better; nature’s self-preservation cry—*' Thyself, first of all,” rose strong within him. ‘Lrue, he was a@ good swimmer, and might possibly have reached the shore with his burden; but then there were the long, tangling, twining lilies— they would catch her trail- ing garments, or she herself might cling to him with that frantic, unreasoning grasp with which so nany women insure the destruction of themselyes and their rescuers, It takes along time to parade these motives in review, but they shot quick and full through the man’ Letty’s appeal rang over the w hoot was partly with relief and partly with shane he had seen the one to: whom she had notappented rush to the dangerous errand. But he thought he had studied too long every phase of the feminine mind to let his nonchalance tail him now, so he greeted Letty as we haye seen, not think- ing his‘¢hances over or much diminished by any means, After this occurrence, this yeteran flirt dis¢oyered himself to be quite as much in love us it Was possible for a man of his calibre to be, so, in order to case this “sweet sorrow,” little doubting the result, he one day alighted at the Arnsden cottage gate, his ilirting veculubary being in the sume exquisite state of arrangement with his elegant person, But these desirables, together with the eyes, which assumed to the fullest their role of tender, irresistible ding, sired etlec upon Letty, who preyed, to her own entit istuction, that eyes may be very lovely and entrancing, without hay- ing any immediate connection with the soul of their ow) Not long thereafter Letty had another visitor, who scarcely looked at her at all, y put on a greater cloquence n ever have, as the owner igurative sense) for the lite he plead (in had saved. What Letty said here we are unable to relate, but tancy the drift of her sentence can be gathered from the fact that the firm arm which threw its shield between her and death, often encircles her now, with- out any such obvious necessity.
