True Unte Death.

iileciion ef Water Commassieners ezinte

The twilicht shades fell thick and fast The night was cominy on,

The sun had sunk into the west, Kach bird had ceased its sung.

When from a mansion threshold stepped A mniden young and fair,

wes were bine as summer skics.

A of of gol de n tint—her hair.

She quickly crossed « verdant lawn, And vanished inthe shades.

With step as light as time fawn, Which roams thro’ forest glades.

Hard by an tree a form she spied, With hahdsome manly face,

She soon wae close beside him there, And clasped in his embrace.

My darling Eisie were the words With which he greeted her,

How did you manage to elade Your father the Commodore.

T left him sleeping soundly Guy, So you need have no fear,

He bas no knowledge of this piacc, He knows not Lam here.

I have no fear he firmly said, As he gently ki sed her cheek,

Altho” my bloo suld stain the grass Itwe should c ands to meet.

You would be true to me my love, rue tho’ the worst would come. True thy’ my heart would cease to beat, True tho’ iny lips be damb.

And with a voice both sweet and clear, That thril! ed his very soul,

She said, [ wou!d be true tu you Even tho’ the w orst would come.

They bent to kiss, their hands were clasped,

Soft as the rustling of the leaves, Or the fluttering of a bird.

With quick impulse they both drew back. As it touched by servent vile,

W hile on the lovers lips there grew A half disdainful smile.

Another inatant anda man Came gliding towards the tree, He paused before the lover there, And addressed him angrily.

Vile wretch, what meaneth this he said. While shook his very frame.

Why dare you meet my daughter here, Teli me your traitorous name.

My name is Guy Faiconwoed, The unbappy y: mith replied,

And if you’ve c alled me traitor sir, Leay, sir, you have lied.

Iam no craven traitor, sir, But a noble son and heir,

And I have come to ask your child My name and wealth to wear.

The only one I love ; Oh. if you will, you shali exchange This world for that above.

Quick as a flash his arm he raised ‘Towards the lover’s head,

And in less thant a Smemianit Guy Falconwood lay dead.

-}

A wild and piercite scream rang out U poadhe balmy air

And E'sie tottering towards his form, Feil dead beside him there.

The father gazed one moment there, Then fied in wild dismay

And a raving meniac he has been, From then until this day.

/

Together they departed this, ‘together they will rise,

When sin and sorrow are unknown Above the bright-blue skies.

dispute the fact, but if they had lived in kJdon during the past winter their opposi- tion would be a thing of the past.

selections reflect vreat credit upon the managers. The continue+ and hearty applause tell their own stor, cbout the performers. All was done in such a thorougli manner, and rendered with such taste and talent as to please the most

genteel person ‘in the assembly.

Mri'™. J. McLeod and Mr. John A. Nicholson have returned home from their studies, crowned with honor, to recruit for the winter term.

The electors of this district are consider- ably put out about the manner in which the Legislative Councillors treated the Govern- ment subway bill.

Even the Indians threw him over, yet certain of our Legisla- tive Councillors will listen to his balder- dash. Were he living in Belfast as he is in Charlotteown the people would orna- ment a tree with him.

| She Wished to be a Widow. sini | The Sacramento Bee says: A remarkable story is told of a woman’s freak which brought her a surprise she had not counted upon. The story comes from Oakland. 'Frankie Brown fell heir, on the death of her father some years ago, to a comfortable fortune of perhaps $50,000. Frankie yearned for the approach of the day when she should become of age, and chafed under the restraint of alegal guardian until last October, when she was 18 years old. With her fortune in her own hands she began to spend it in extravagant living and expen- sive fancies. Meeting a dashing widow she envied the freedom which widew- hood seemed to confer upon her new acquaintance and resolved to be a widow herself. She accord- lugly consulted a docter in San Francisco and asked for an introduction to one of his patients who had but a brief time to live. The doctor knew of a consumptive ‘printer with the chances against him of surviving more than a week at least. Miss Brown said she would pay the physician’s bill of $700 for attendance on the sick man, and the introduction was given and the parties married. The husband, however, to Frankie’s great alarm, began to recover, and now manifests no symptoms of anjinten- tion to shake off his earthly coil. The un- willing wife sought a lawyer, and is engaged n trying to undo the com plication in which her desire to become a widow involved her.

Putting Away Clothes.

An authority on fashions for half a cen- tury gives some good advice in making one dollar do the work of two. In the first place, she advises to have as few clothes as

it is possible to get along with. The second is to take the very greatest care of

what you have. Never buy anything but good materials. Never turn a dress inside ‘out when it is put away. It creases and spoils the trimmings. Dresses should be {kept in bags which buttou down the front, jso that the folds are not disarranged in puttiug them in. Blue paper is the best weservator for white gowns, Bodices 'shoukd be laid down flat; on sleeves the bows stuffed out with paper, if they are ‘used for trimming, ‘and each bodice kept 'from dust. Furs should be well beaten, taken out from time to time, covered with insect powder and sewed in a holland bag. Boxes for evening dresses should be the length of the skirt and furnished with a couple of hooks, so that if set on end they form a sort of hanging wardrobe. Summer | wash fabrics, if carefully smoothed out and |folded after wearing, will last longer and fresher than when they are hung up, and will not become so stringy. if thrown down carelessly when taken off they will soon lose their freshness.
