-. i hi wl h in & i! i THE MAX THAT ANNIE LOYED. She was crocheting something oat of soft scarlet and white wool. Milton Etheredge sat watching her, pretending to read the Journal at the same time. She was looking very charming in her buff muslin drcs?, with pink ribbon at the throat and looping back her brown hair. Prate as we may of the unimportance of dress, it more or less influences the destiny of us all. Venus herself would be ugly ia a tattered gown, and only imagine Apollo iu a swallow tailed coat with bright buttons. Annie Huntly knew the value of dress and, what is more, the knew how to attire herself in just the manner moet becoming to her. She was not m much prettier than doz ens of other young ladies, but everything about her was in harmony, and people had fallen into the habit of calling her beautiful. She had a clear, wild rose complexion tolerably regular features soft bro'Au eve?, and blown hair that was struggling continually to break into curls and riny'uts s natural to it. MiiMu Ktl trede grave, hi lent, wi-e Uwjer wondered within himself how long he ti.id loveJ tnis little Annie. He cuu'd not rciueiubsr. S:i years ago she had come to them the dyinjj request ol M:t. Ethertdge's best valued friend. The good lady had been a mother to her ever since, anil Milton had, played the part of a kind elder brother. Annie was eighteen when sLe came to Grayhcad she was now twenty-five. Yes, he was suie he had loved her for six years. She had made everything so different. Her pretty ways of arranging curtains, and books,and knick knack?, had brightened up the stately old house wonderfully. Miltou thought it was strange how he and his lady mother had ever managed to live without her. So he sutand looked at her as she made the shining steel flash iu and out the bright fleecy wool. Not that he thought of ever being anything more to her than ne was now. His love was nuiet yet it had not reached that passionate stage when it will not be subdued by any obstacles. He was old thirty at least and it would be childish for him to hope she would ever link her you.ig fresh life with that ot a man whose hair was already getting gray on the temples. But there was something more to des troy the hope, if lie had dared to in dulge it. At one time, perhaps, he had indulged it,lmt certainly.not now. Annie Huntly had had her life romance as well ar other women. It had been sweet at first painfully bitter at last. It had made her smile graver her color mure fleeting her manner at times subdued and sad so Etheredge thought. Annie and Leigh Richardson had met under somewhat romantic circumstances. He. had saved her from drowning at Cape Mav, when she had ventured be yond her depth; and, after her removal to Graymnad, he had followed her there and located himself in the practice of his profession the law. He had been a constant visitor for two years. People began to speak ot them as belonging to each other, and Mrs. Etheredge had, with a woman's peculiar delight, Degun to anticipate the wedding supper and the bridal tromseau. Etheredge had looked on with a dull pain at his heart, for which he felt half angry with him self. Surely he ought to rejoice that Annie would be so happy, lor Richard son was every way estimable,, and was rising rapidly in his profession. Suddenly, however, about two years before the opening of our story, his vis its ceased, and he began a vio lent flirta tion with Nellie Seymour, the belle of the village. Annie did not die on ac count of it she did tot even mope, as girls generally do when crossed in love. Her manner was a little more subdued, her laugh less frequently, but she wa3 not heart broken. She put aside the sympathy Mrs. Etheredge would have offered her, quietly, and gave her con fidence to no one. Sometimes she met Richardson, but they txchanged no words not even the ordinary ceremonious greetings of mere acquaintances; they were as completely separated su if an ocean rolled between them. This night, as Etheredge sit watching Annie, and thinking of all this, he no ticed, with a thrill of pain, that she was a little paler, a little more quiet than usual. He remcmlercd that she had met Richardson at the picture gallery that day. Some magnetic influence in the gaze of Ethcrc3jc made Annie look up. She flushed under the serene luster ot those dark gray eves, and her fingers forgot their cunning, and dropped the ball of zephyr she was unwinding. It rolled toward the fire there was a genuine old ashioncd wood fire upon the hearth and in stooping to recover it, her light sleeve dipped into the blaze. The flames leaped up 3Iilton sprang forward, caught her in his arms, and crushed cut the fire She was fiightcncd, weak and dizzy with remembering what she had escaped, and for & moment she stood circled on his arm, her head on his shoulder, her soft hair resting against his cheek. The touch thrilled him with startling power. He was hardly himself. All the love he had so lon kept under foot rose up like an unbound tyrant. He pressed his lips passionately to hers he would have told her then how dear she was to him, but something seemed to hold him back. He would wait a little until the excite ment of her recent peril would be over would wait, and think it over calmly. All that night he sat up, thinking of his course. He loved her with all his soul; he should never care for another wo man. But he was not quite sure of the condition of her heart. What if she had Etill a lingering tenderness for Richard son? ne feared she might .have. He had seen her kiss a picture which he felt morally sure was his. Would he like his wife to kiss Leigh Richardson's pic ture? Would he like to think fhe had ever kissed it? Then he remembered how she blushed sometimes when he looked at her, and took courage. It might be that the old dream could be forgotten in the new. At any rate he would know before he slept, he said, with sudden resolution, and after break fast he went down town for a walk. He knew a few of the fellows belonging to tha Franklin Club, and for the want of something better to do, he sauntered into their room. There were only two or three present, smoking their cigars and idling over the papers. Their business hours had not commenced yet. A he entered he caught the nttir.e of Annie Huntley. Fred. Ormc, a reckless, young dare devil, was telling a story. E heredge reddened on hearing her utme from Orme'j. iips, and was about s'riding for ward and calling him to account for it, when Orme's next words arrested him and forced him to listen. ''You see Leigh Richardson was dead in love with her. Never saw a fellow any harder. Well, she is a charming girl dresses cxquisitlely. Never saw a better fitting glove and boot than she gets on. Leigh is trnart, but I never liked him since he won that silver cup at the boat race. I meant to have had that myself. Too confounded bad I didn't get it." "So it was," drawled Ed. Harrison; "how you sweat, didn't you Fred?" "It was hotter than the tropics, and Leigh is one of the cool blooded ones. I said that I meant to be even with him, and I have kept my word. Don't mind telling you the story, fellows, since it is such an old aflair. Pass that lemonade, Etheredge you'll be interested in it, because I've heard it said that you're rather sweet in that quarter. Matters were going on swimmingly, two years ago, between Leigh and Annie. They'd have been married before now, if nobody had .interfered. But Dennis and I you know Dennib? tiptop fellow 1 got up a little plan between us, and it worked splendidly. Didn't we raise the deuce? I gained possession of some of Leigh's handwriting, and practiced writing like it. I am an expert at that business, I flatter myself; and in a lew days I could fairly beat Richardson with his own weapons. So I wrote a letter to an imaginary chum of his giving a des cription of Miss Annie, calling her a soft little thing, telling him how sha adored the subscriber, and how the sub scriber cared nothing at all for her, but was enjoying a glorious flirtation. Of ourse the subscriber was Leigh Richard son. This note, which was a most in sulting one to any wonan, we contrived to have dropped where Miss Annie would find it, and the result was even more jolly than I had anticipated. She mittened Richardson the next day, and refused to listen to any explanation he could make, Ha! ha! a good joke wasn't it? Paid him for getting that cup. Always intended to pay him off some way. He felt dreadfully about itl My sister Lucy boarded him at the time, and there was no sleep in tho house tor his tramping up and down his chamber all night. A little more lemonade, Ed., and I don't care if there is a drop ot champagne in it. It's chilly this morn ing." Etheredge waited to hear no more. In his present frame of mind he felt as if lie could not bear it. He went home and shut himself up in his chamber. After all, Richardson had been true. How bitterly he had been wronged! Annie would repent, and love him more than ever, it she knew the injustice she had done him. That was a woman's nature. She atones for wrong by giving love. And what if an eclairciuement should be brought about? Etheredge felt faint and sick. The future shut down dark and blank. Ard only an hour before he had dared indulge such glowing visions. He saw his duty clearly caongh, but it ie not always easy to do one's duty. The was a little struggle bctweon his heart and his con science. A hundred times the tempta tion beset him to keep his knowledge to himself, and win Annie for his own She would never know that Richardson was blameless, and his great love might make her so happy! At last, he knelt down and prayed over it. He always prayed over those things which were too hard for.him. After that, he rose and sat down by the window felt the west wind on his forehead saw .the pale wintry sunshine gild the loi-g rows of buildings opposite. For him there wasano more hesitation. If hccould make Annie happy, what matter to him how it was accomplished? He wen down to the sitting, room about sunset. He knew he should find Annie there. Mrs. Etheredge was away at a society meeting. Annie was sewing by a shaded lamp. She did not like the glare of the gas. There was a rich color on her cheek over which the loose hair drooped low. Milton Etheredge s heart leaped at sight of her, but he stilled it down ard took a seat beside her. "Annie," he said, "I am an old friend, and I think you will not be offended if I ask you a few questions. Not because I am curious, bnt because I desire your good more than any earthly thing." She looked up in wonderment, noticing the strange unsteadiness of his voice and the tremor ot the hsnd laid on hers. "Offended with you, Mr. Etheredge!" she said reproachfully ; "never that. Go on I am listening." "Annie, you were once engaged to Leigh Richardson?" Her head drooped lower; the crimson came and went in her cheeks. "I was," she said, in a low voice. "You loved him and he loved you was it not so, my child?" "We called it love." "And you thought him false?" "As Satan himself!" "What if you knew that he was not false that h was true to you always that the contemptible letter which you read, purporting to nave been written by him, was a vile forgery what then?" She was looking at him in mute sur prise. She drew a long breath. "Was it a forgery?" "It was. I have jast heard tLe history of it. An ill natured acquaintance of Richardson's, to gratify a petty revenge, wrote the letter and dropped it where jou would be sure to find it. Leigh Richardson was real and true." She sit very still bcfoie him, not a line of her 'ace chaDging. He waited for he to speak, but she did uot seem disposed to do m. "Annie, my dear child, shall I speak to Mr. Richardson about this mistake ?'' "If you pleas?. I would like him to know that he is clear in my eyes. I think he would be glad to know it. Tell him just how it was, and ask him to for give me if I was harsh with him." "Is that all?" "That is all." "Annie I" "Mr. Etheredge!" "Pardon me for pursuing the subject, but, if you still care want to speak yourself." "But I do not "You do not! She blushed a edge put the bl had seen her k pang pierced hi "Is it because you love another." "Yes," she said, quietly, "it is because I love another." "And that othei ?" She rose abruptly, and flung off the detaining hand he laid on her arm. "You have no right to ask me that!" she said hoarsely. "Let me go ! You torture me!" "Torture you, Annie, I?" What pos sessed him he did not know perhaps, something her eyes said to him made him bold. He put his arm around her and drew her to his side. "Annie, if ycu love another, I must give you to him. Your happiness shall be secured, though mine be shipwrecked. I did not mean to tell you, darling; but I love you so, it almost kills me to think' of losing you. O, Annie ! my little, lost Annie!" Her face grew rosy as the morning. She put her arm around his neck. "Not lost, but found," she said, softly- "Annie," he cried, breathlessly, "do not deceive me! What of the picture I saw you kissing?" She laughed a little, and crimson with confusion drew the locket from her bos om, and held it up to him. He saw his own face. "Forgive me, Milton. I got it of the artist, and have worn it these two years. Leigh Richardson 13 nothing to me you are all." The Next Germaa War. The other day a simple minded Ger mau called on a grocer to pay a iiill, giv ing him a $10 note. The grocer exam ined it closely, and said? "Hullo, where did you get this note?" "Vot is de rea sons mit dis note?" replied the honest Teuton; "don't she vash good, hein?" "Good?" answered the grocer; "why, you're a lucky man that note is worth $10.50" "Ish dot so? Why lor?" "You see the signature over here, don't you?" "Dose things like a corkscrew mit de worms? Yah." "Well, that's Spinner's signature." "Veil." "Well, Mr. New is now Treasurer of the United States." "You don't tole me so. Veil." "Well, and notes signed by Spinner are getting scarce, and people pay five per cent, more for them than for the new issue." "By shiminy, ish dot so?" "Yes. Lem me see your bills. Why, every one of them is h Spinner! Man alive, your fortune is made." In pursuance of the grocer's advice, Mr. Schneider called at the Sub-Treasury, Saturday afternoon, to get the premium on his bills What succts3 he had it is impossible to state, but he was seen later in the evening lurking round the street by which the groc:r must go home, and on being ac costed by an acquaintance the following conversation took place: "Dei pec blest von Sharmany fights well, hein?" "Ob, yes; the Germans are unquestionably a mili-ary nation of the first class." "Some big lights, hem? Leipsic?" "Yes." "Und Svlowa:" "Yes." "Und Konig gratz?" "Certainly." "Und Worth, und Mars-la Tour, und Gravclotte, und Sedan?'' "Of course, of course." "Dose was all big battles, und der Deutsca licked!" "Yes." "Veil, you jjost waits till dat grocery store shuts himself, und you saw a Deutsch victory vot makes you forgot all dem little onc3." Chicago Tribune. An investigation into the failure of O. B.

Schenck'a Pulmonic Syr tip, Sea Weed TobIc, and Mandrake I'll In. Thce deserved ly celebrated and popn'ar medicines hae effected a revolution in the healing art. and Droved the fallacy of several maxims which have for many years obstructed the progress of medical science. The false supposition that "Consumption is in curable" deterred physiciahns from attempting to find remedies for that disease, and patient af flicted with it reconciled thcm-clves to denth without making an effort to escape from a doom which they supposed to be unavoidable. It is now proved, however, that Consumption can m cured, and that it has been cured in a very great number of cases (some of them apparently desperate ones) by Schcr.ck's Pulmonic Sprup alone; and in other esse by the same medicine in connection with Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake rills, one or both, acccording to the requirements of the case. Dr. Schenck hlniPtlf, who enjoyed uninter rupted good health for more than forty years, nv supposed, at one time to beat tne very gac'of death, his physicians having pronounced his case hopeless, and abandoned him to feis fate. He was cured by the aforesaid medicines, an-, since his recovery, inany thousands similarly affected have used Dr. Schenck's preparations with the same remarkable succe;s.
