Weary and worn. at close of day,

Fainting and dying by the way,

A wounded Pilgrim sleeping lay.

While Silence, stealing to his side,

And winding her soft arms around.

sighed ill her dreams and prcssed his wound. And so, be, walking, caught a. sound—

A footstcp on the other side-

lIow many weary pilgrim lie.

And watching wait, and waiting sigh For steps that never wander nigh,

Ilut pass upon the other side;

For steps that trampled llcart ad brain, .\nd made their lives a lingering pain, And passed and never came rgaiu— Lost footsteps on the other side.

How many wall: with bleeding fcct,

Seeking the loved and lost to meet,

While the door visions flit and fleet,

And vanish on the other a. c!

While life's fresh love and youth‘s sweet trust, Those I'Idcn-bloolns ill earthly dust,

Lie bruised and brokell, stained alld crushed, ‘Neath footsteps on the other side.

And so we watcll, and watching Ligll While youth, and faith, and hope go by; While life, and lovc, and gladness dic With footsteps on the other side.

And so we wait with car and eye,

For our dear cello floating lly——- ‘ A grief, l| woe, a wandering sigh,

A footstep on the other ride.

0 heavy hearts, that ache and break

0 heavy eyes, that droop and sleep! Why must ye cvcr wake and weep

At footsteps on the other side?

Why must ye ever lie forlorn.

.tlld ache, and waizc, and weep so long, Because one foolstcp has gone wrong, i And passed upon the other side?

n me x a. hall" pitymg and half scorn- flll ex lrossiou in M: 'rl-l's eyes :il she, lookel up from re ug this heartless letter to tllc mortified, rejected Il‘t'fll‘)‘ Scarcer a year had idlip‘cd since shednul suffered, and more deeply than over (".lrl could, for Ill-vs had been the one true love, of Ilt'l‘ life, while his had been llll' \vildlv ambitious drcanlnl'ollc short twelvcmoulh. Yet she said kindly :—

“ I am sorry for you. <‘al'l: but she is unworthy ol‘you. Audit is bettcrto learn this lesson ill tiluc."

" In time!" Did Margaret intend any reproach in her words? No. She. was not thinking of the very cavalier l'l-fol'cllco to that olden relation between ‘(‘tll'l and herself ill .‘lisl lirauennlb‘s crllel lzcte: her only desire was to soften this blow to him.

“ Margaret, lknow I have. no right to your sympathy—you, ofall Women in the world whom I have wronged so!" broke. out the young man, a tide of crimson surging over his face.

“ Carl. I am your sister always: and as such you have the right you would deny. And I thank you for the confidence which brings you to lllo in your trouble. You will read Miss Iivauscolllb's letter more calmly ill ll few days.“

" Was Margaret speaking from llcrowu experience? llid people get over such experiences so easily P" (.‘url could not help asking},r himsoll. as, a few hours later, he sat moodin in the htW—Ullicc, lll‘f)0lllll‘; over the ulcluol‘y oftho false. girl who lllld so heartlessly jilted lliln. tlcrllllnly her words ulld manner would have led to such a conclusion; bllt well is it that hearts are not always writtell out on faces. and calm utterances may oltcu veil a title of turbu- lent feclillpr beneath.

Following that blow which fell sharply on Carl Ill-ellt‘s high-spiritcd, :llllbitious nature, passed another year. ' h glided by calmly and lmevcntl'lllly at. Nuu'lllll‘g. At its expiration he. was surprised to fund that he “as not so Ill crable as ho had thought to be; that life hold much that was consoling! lol' him yet - and all this he owczl to the. unselfish slstcr who had. by her killd cflilrls. won him back to his olden soll'ngaiu. He even been" to hope that, ill time. ho might win but k all that be had lost ill the noble love which, ho now tell, had been a prize he never valued aright.

And Margaret? All.tlle heart of woman is over forgiving: and trusting; alld sweet dreams again Ill-gall to m-stlc ill her breast. And so at length t'arl spoke of his latest, best love; and Margaret forgave the past; and the old judge, delighted at the con- summation ot‘tho plans of his heart. gave Ills sanction to [blur renewed engagement. A happy autumn and winter lvellt by; and March value, with its wild cqllinoctial gale. There had been many wrecks of lllto off the .‘iowbllrgr Coast; lllld one. morning: the old town was startled by the report ot‘luinute guns from a. ship in dis- tress. and the pitiful story ran from lip to lip of the vessel that lay below on the jagged reel. Illllf the inhabitants were immediately down on the beach where the wild storm was driving: ill the surf with a noise like thunder; and the hardy fishcr- men were lowering till-id bouts into the breakers.

Two hours went bv. during which time every boat which had endeavored to gain the rch had been hurled back, with its llall-drmvucd imllates. u loll the cold hard beach; and then came the tearful cry that the vessel was breaking up. Now the fishermen stood ready to rescue any whom the rolling surl might fling Slltll‘tiwal‘tl, and ' again their boats \l'l-l'ly+lllllellcll.

With the crowd who lad collie down to the beach stood Margaret Ilrent, with her ample waterproof cloak protecting her from the driving rain; while Carl. all energy and daring, was lovelllost among

delivering to rescue the passengers of the ,doomed vessel.

And now the horrors of the shipwreck culminated. Body after body came. in on Itbc tremendous surf, sometimes harm: to »tbe grasp of the boatlnen. bllt oltcner ,suatchcd back by the sw"t undertow to tllc mow of the hungry sell.

Every house llear’tlle shore was opened for the reception of tho rescued; aul Carl was busy ill directing the removal of some to his adopted talher‘s, when suddenly turning to look upon a. pair who, clasped in each othev‘s arms, were. can! up at his feet. he grew p- . . death t Iculatillgz—

“ My God! Far. and .ilvlrlr.

In a minute more Margarot was beside him; alld as she looked upon the pale, \vct laces of these tlvo, a. cold shiver up through her heart. Were they deal? llad her rejection of Paul Ilrllllscolllb driven him to '

:t iOI't ion land—and had the Cl‘llt'l sca east him lifeless at her fuel, to reproach llcr evcrluoro? And Carl, too, was fearllllly agitated; but this 'as no tilllc to think of ought bill the restoration of the half-drowned pair, who were ilu- lncdiatcly carried to the house.

Weeks followed after the wl k of that proud government sailing vessel Ironl foreign shores off the Newburg.r coast. M-lny lifeless bodies had been washed up long after the. fierce elpllnoctial storm had sponth fury. and suehlollnd decent burial, or we ' claimed by their friends; while ll ho survived the peril of the wreck .ld returned to their homes save l'alll lll'anseolnb and his sistcrl‘llaric, who still lingered ill tho mansion of Judge lh'cnt; for Marie hall, for some. time, lain from the chill and exnosura ofthe out. . ion. llut now she was fast convalescing; her old spirits lverc returning with her bloom; yet still sbn lingered. Why did she not depart from the pr ellce nl‘tuat man near whom she, of all, ought not to linger?

Who that has ever witnessed the tactics nfrllllornugbly heartless Ilirt—a woman, vain. ambitious, ca )l‘lcitllis, and tickle—— need wonder at. her conduct? Marie Ih'alnsclnllb had been flattered by the ad- ' ion ofth handsome. aspiring young collegiau; she had even fancied herself ill love lvitll hllll: but she had not scruplcd to cost him otl‘ for tllc wealthy and titled suitol she met abroad. And umv, though she had been less tllau WUIHHII il' SIN? llilll not. felt emotions of gratitude to the man who, with his own hands. had ‘ll‘flWll her Irolll the cruel surf, and though so” lolllld it very pleasant to linger ill his llolll'r l'r- ceiviug his attention, . It‘. did not hesitate to try her corplettisll arts llpoll him anew. Not that this vain, cruel beauty repented lll'l‘ past conduct. or intended to accept (‘an llrcnt. Oh no; for she expected hol- lit‘.e.l c/lnrlli'.“ from England ill the follow- ing autumn, and to return with him a ' do; :bllt allllliratiou was so much a lsslon'with the heartless girl that pour passer 1e lrnlpix (.‘arl was to be trillcd with anew.

And how could Margaret—alums: mad- dv-ncd by hcrjenlolls fe lrs, and mistaking; the polite : leutions oi lllc host for a warmer fl ( ling renewed for their artful :llld beautiful guest—reason ‘lllmly null dispassionatelv? .‘illo lllll not: she asked lu-rselt', bitterly, “ Am I to live overagain what they once made me suffer?“ And So shccaluc to a sudden do siou, horn of her jealous, i‘.. sting love; alld without waiting, this time, to assure llt sell that t‘arl might not be falling: readily int-l tllc toils of llll' beautiful tenlptress she cx- claimed: "I hold the powel in my own band: now. and I will turn back upon him what he once meted out to me! This is my decision.“

Ilut Carl? Dill be hand again at the shrine at the beautiful cmplotto? Not ill his very heart; but it cannot be denied that it gave him strange. pleasure to behold that haughty woman grow submissive and plialltat his approach. and to note how the lnSl'illIlllllg polish she had nctlllll‘tlfl ill the Old World circles was held ollt to hiln as o bait—and so ho was not so careful of his conduct as he might have been. llnlil he was awakened by his decided alld uu- equivocal dismissal by Margaret.

“Carl, I see how it is. You wish to be free, and return to your old allegiance, "Alli. You are like the lnolll that hovers around the blaze of the candle; and I will not bear this treatment 3" said tllc girl. "Take back your rillgL-mui never, never speak to me of your wavering, vascillnting all'cctiou again—4hr Margaret Ilrcut will share no divided heart!" she said, with lil unless in her tones.

” You nl' take. me, indeed you do! Listen. Margaret!“ began (‘uvl. but she would not listen; for “ tl'if‘ - lgllt as air" had become, to her heart, “ cmlfirlnntiou strung-5' lllld sllo honestly b vcd that this step was rendered illlpcra l -.

And so they parted for the. second time; and Margaret ndllaretl firmly to the role sllo had lllal'ked out, and announced to her father that her engagement was at mt end the day billowing the departure of their guests, lor Paul and Marie now brought their stay at Newbllvg to a close. .ludgo llrcut looked at his daughter ill rpriso; bllt upon her nssn Ill: him that It was llcv own wish that dictated the dc-
