He who spoke then was calling for her he loved, and Is there not a saying that love's fire burns fiercest at the age of twenty? She whom he called Joanna had sworn to visit him after death, and she had broken her promise. But he waited and waited, and whenever he heard steps above him he longingly called, ‘Joanna, is it you?’ Oh, the pity of it. No one ever heard; no one ever answered. But I, I could not leave him there alone. I answered him and I lied to him, forlI said, ‘It is I, Joanna.’ Was I wrong in doing that?

happiness of love, of those by-gone mo- ments of bliss, of the cup of delight that only lovers are allowed to taste of, and I answered him as Joanna would have an- swered, for how could I tell him the truth and break his heart, when he was so alone down, down in the cold earth.

And so I came again, day by day, and

| sat above him, and listened to his words | of love and happiness.

But one day we were parted. The stillness around me was broken by the footsteps of many people, and I felt that they had come to take me away. I put my arms about the pillar with his name and cried aloud in the anguish of my heart; but they were strong- er than I and they tore me away from his grave and brought me here. And they are so cruel, for they will not let me go to him, and I know that heis waiting for me and counting the hours and days, until I return.’’

With a loud cry of despair she hed flung herself at my feet, pleading, *‘Oh, take me to him; take me to him or he will have to die out there alone without me!”’

**My child,’’ I said as gently as I could, 1 cannot take you with me; I cannot help you.”’

The terrible helplessness and misery ex- pressed in her face actually startled me. Still I felt forced to repeat: ‘My poor child, I cannot help you.”

‘*Then all is over and I shall see him nevermore.’’ And in a paroxysm of grief ske fell sobbing on the stone bench, still tightly holding the little bunch of forget me-nots in her right hand. Suddenly her sobbing ceased, and rising she addressed me, speaking hurriedly:

“Ah, very well, I cannot go, but you will go in my place. Take these forgot me-nots and go to the Pere La Chaise. You will soon find his grave with his hame engraved on the marble pillar, and the urn above it. And when you have found it you will place these flowers on it and say tohim: ‘Joanna sends these for- get-me-nots.’ You will do this for me?’

“" wit,”

“I thank you, oh, I thank you,”’ and after tenderly kissing the little bunch of flowers she handed them to me.

I left her and went—at the risk of being laughed at—I will tell the truth—I went to Pere La Chaise, and walked among the graves until I had found it—her grave with the warble shaft, and ‘‘Daniel Rob- ert'’ engraved on it, and the urn above it, and around which the little birds fly and sing.

And I reverently laid the forget-me-nots on his grave, and, bowing low my head, I whispered: ‘Joanna sends these forget- me-nots.”’

A long, deep-drawn sigh answered me. Had he heard my message, or had I sigh- ed myself? I know not,

I was so run down I had togive up work.

Scott’s Sarsaparilia the kind that cures.

Indigestion or dyspepsia is the bane of thousands, andis one of the most de- pressing of afflictions. I: arises from an impure or impoverished conditior of the blood, which weakens the digestive and assimilative organs, @endlering them in- capable of performing their natural func- tions, and if neglected, the sufferer loses flesh, complains of exhaustion afterslight exertion, and becomes rapid®y debilitated.

Mr. Wm. W. Thompsoa, a prominent resident of Zephyr, Ont., inaletter dated Aug 12th, 1895, says: ‘*It gives me great

leasure to testify to the fact that Scott’s

arsaparilla has caused a most 1e:nark- able change in my condition. 1 was so much run down I had to give up work and felt as if life were net worth living.

FINISH IN SINGING,

It Marks the Distinction Between Real Excellence ahd Mediocrity.

It is amazing how few good voices reach the maturity of their powers, and especially how few Am- erican voices are ever given or realize their proper opportunity,” writes Charles R. Adams, the venerable and famous teacher of singing, in March Ladies’ Home Journal. *"The habit of school singing, as it usually exists, is a pernicious one, and one which should be discouraged until instruction is made to accompany it. Children will force their voices beyond their regis- ters and beyond their volume by s-nzg- ing, Or more properly, screaming, in a chorus. One of the special evils of chorus singing arises from the depend- ence upon other voices for note and tune. The voice needs individual de- pendence as much as any other fac-

ulty.” Mr. Adams, after touching upon the value of chorus singing, under proper conditions, repose, the

specific value of operatic training, en- unciation and pronounciation, phras-

ing, ete:, asserts that ‘Finish is_ the greatest factor in public success. Finish,” he concludes, ‘has been said to mark the distinction between ex-

cellence and metiocrity, and who that lives and strives in art with any real love for his mistress but would prefer the honor and glory of the former to the self-confessed inferiority of the lat- ter? The times change, and our stand- ard for the singer, as for the individu- al, advances with them, The advance is steadily along all lines—toward per- fection, toward completion, toward ex-

cellence—and although the gual in art,

asin humanity, is still distant, yet each personal advance increases the possibilities and hastens the time for

the entire race of mankind.”

A Pair of Little Shoes.

Could we but see all that drink is responsible for, the cruelty. the disgrace, the misery which follows its use, there are few who would de- liberately put themselves in the power of so fearfula master. A commercial traveler, meeting a number of ac- quaintances in one of our large cities, was asked to drink.

He promptly refused, and when his friends called on him for an explana- tion, gave it as follows:—

‘Well, boys, I will tell you; yester- day I wasin Chicago. Down on South Clark street a customer of mine keeps a pawnshop in connection with his other business.

“IT called on him, and while 1 was there a young man of not more than twenty-five, wearihg threadbare clothes and looking as if he hadn’t seen a sober day for a month, came in with a little package in his hand.

‘He unwrapped it and handed the article to the pawnbroker, saying, ‘Give me ten cents.’ And, boys, what do you suppose it was? A pair of baby shoes; little things with the bottom only a trifle soiled, as if they had been worn once or twice.

“Where did you get these?” asked the pawnbroker. ‘Got ’em at home,’ replied the man, who had an intelli- gent face and the manner of a gentle- man, despite his sad condition.

“My wife bought them for our baby Give me ten cents for °em—I want a drink.”

“You had better take the shoes back to your wife; the baby will need them,’ said the pawnbroker. ‘No, s-she won't because she’s dead. She’s lying at home now; died last night.”

“As he said this the poor fellow broke down, bowed his head on the showcase and cried like a child.” “Boys.” said the drummer, ‘‘you may laugh if you please; I~—I have a baby it home, and I swear I'll never drink another drop.”—Exchange.

Some vears agoin the town of L—, lived an easy-going, unobtrusive per- son by the name of Tom Lawton. Like that far famed individual, Rip Van Winkle, he had a great aversion to anything like profitable labor. He took the world easily. spending most of his time at the saloon. Remonstrances were of little avail. He would promise to reform, but would soon return to his evil ways. One hot day in summer Tom fell asleep at the saloon. Whil in this state of unconsciousness, his only child, a boy of four summers, and the image of his father as far as a gen- eral state of untidiness went, came staggering into the saloon.

“There, that’s Tom’s boy!” exclaimed one of the bystanders. “A chip of the old block!”

A great laughter followed this re- mark.

“IT declare he is!” exclaimed an- other. ‘‘Tom will never be missed—

hE

the boy will fill his place!

The sport at the expense of father and son continued until someone pro- posed to set up the drinks for the boy.

The sleeper moved. He pushed back his hat, stretched out his legs, and strode leisurely into the middle of the floor,

“T’'ve not been asleep all this time,” he began. “And it’s about time this thing stopped. The man who offers that boy a drop of liquor, I'll knock down. He’s my child, and if I can help it he’s not going to make a fool of himself as I’ve done. And what's more, thigis the last time he’ll have to come to a saloon to find me.”

And then taking his boy by the hand, Tom strode out of the saloon.

For a few minutes silence reigned supreme. Someone said Tom would be back in less than a week. But he was mistaken. Tom had left the saloon for good.—Sel,

WORSE THAN THE SUN DANCE,

tn Abyssinian Torture Whie: Sur-

passes Any Barbarity of Initia.

A custom of the Abyssinian braves is lescribel by a well known traveler. [he girls themselves play an active mart there. When young people are rathered for amusement, one of them will begin peeling a straw of green millet, which is full of pith.

Her iover’s blood runs coid probably, but he must smile or own himself a craven. When she has cut the pith into bits an inch long, he stretches out his bare arm. The example set, every girl who respects herself and has a lover follows it.

The young men form a circle with arms extended. Blithely, then, with many a jest, doubtless, the maidens arrange their bits of pith upright in some fanciful design on the bare flesh and set them alight. They are nearly an inch thick, and they burn very slowly, but the hapless youth must stand and smile as well as he can till the blood of the seared flesh extin- guishes them.

Sam Jones on the Home.

Among the good things from the pen of Sam Jones the following is worthy of careful consideration:—

] ara not an alarmist. If every bank was to break I would not loss a cent and I could walk home. I have two shoulders of meat in the smoke house, and cicthes to last me six months,

We've got to get back to headquart- ers—home—to find out the trouble. Home ought to be the brightest, hap- piest and cheeriest place under the sun, on the face of the earth,

Every man shows what he thinks of his family by the appearance of the home he puts them in. A man whose home is all out of whack, the blinds down and the doors off the hinges, the steps rotten—that shows his character. The husband shows his character by the exterior of his home, and the wife by the interior. I don’t see how some men can keep pious on what they get three times a day. Spurgeon includes all human miseries under ‘‘dirt, devil, debt.” I have been in houses where they had twenty-five hundred dollars’ worth of silverware and only fifteen cents’ worth of grub. I would like to be able to digest silver but can’t. I like girls who can play on the stove as wellason the piano. Many a man has been sent to a drunkard’s grave by what he has been given to eat by his wife. You give a mana biscuit that will knock down a yearling, and he’s gotto havea drink or something else before night.

If you’ve got a good home and a good cow you're elected, as Presbyterians sav.

She Kemem pbdered the Cure, Mr N B Vesey, living in Durant, Miss, has an old black-and-tan terrier, named Tricksy, of which the following singular incidents are related: It hap- pened that early in her puppy dog state Tricksy suffered from a serious attack of the mange which baffled for a long time all efforts for its relief At last a young negro boy on the place said that he could cure Tricksy by clipping off the tips of the dog’s ears and tail, which resulted efficaciously It would appear that the dog never for- got the remedy which proved such a boon in her case, for since then every time she gives birth to a litter of pups almost her first attention to the young offspring is to bite off the tips of each one’s ears and tail Not one of them was ever known to suffer from the mange.—Philadelphia Times

One of the Wonders of Physics,

An experienced mechanic who was asked what he regarded as the most won- derful thing for general utility, replied: “The tracking of a car wheel is the most wonderful thing to me in the whole range of science and invention Here are two rails, up hill and down hill, around sharp curves and along false tangents, and upon them flies at the rate of more than a mile a minute, without jar or jostle, a dozen heavy cars, drawn by an engine weighing sixty tons Passengers realize no danger, yet there is only the little flange of a wheel between them and eternity An inch and a half of steel turned up on the inner side of the wheel holds up the whole train as if it were bolted there in grooyes’’—Albany Express
