Cecil Sutherland sat by her window, ktinc at the hit of blue sky, with 1 he leafless branches of an elm outlined aptinst it. .She was a handsome girl of twenty -live, with a dark oval face and mklnmht hair. Jlvr ej s were the most noticable feiutirts of her face; V ey could soften and shadow forth a won- .rful depth of woman) love, 01 they wm'l look merciless and cold as steel, when pride held its iron hand on her heart At present there was a cold glitter in their dark depths, and liei small mouth had a determined expres-sio-. "I wonder if he thinks I shall overlook this iieclec'. ?" she said, with hei eyes st:li HxkI on the blue sky, over which a 1 jj'cy little cloud was sailing slowly. -lie has ceased to love me. that is evi dent. I have humbled myself sufficient ly. J have written him three letters, and now, after a two weeks' waiting since the last, there is still no word from him. Well, if lie does write now, I will register a vow that I will send jfrnek Ins letter unopened. I will accept no tardy restitution. 2s o one but m- srif knows what I have sufiered through liis iiejrlecl during the past weeks, a:.d f 1 will not vield one iota. 1 can be ft t. lovt-, liut hard a. irm Wtn-12 di--pitf ol me ir- thrown,' ., and mv pride, which is ever the aid of tortured love, will not fail me in the 'irir that may come." Mie rose from her seat with an air of resolvt settling over the rare beauty of her face, .-vhe walked to the glass and contemplated her lace a moment. "They tell me I am beautiful," she said, "and 1 know it is true. I am lich. well-born and accomplished. "Why should I be negh cled by a lover ? "Win hould 1 stand insult from any man r Perhaps he did not get my letters," she continued doubtfully, ;is Si m whisper ed tend rn of her li ver came to hei tlt'n.ght by a subtle association.

How she loi a d to break th" seal he was in dam,ei of breaking the vow which he had made half an Lour be- fore. Nothing but pride kept her back. "I must hot allow curiosity to ruin im 'solve." she continued as she turiud it ver and over in her hand. "It is prob ably a note telling me he has fou.id out he does not love me. I will not risk the mortification. 1 can think of nothing more dignified than to return this lettei unowned. He will see that I am iiottt te tr li d with. 1 will not relent now if 1 die for it," j As if afraid to trust herselt longer, slf drew her writing desk toward her. and penned a short note, which she in closed with the letter in the envelope, and directed it to Mr. Howard "Welling ton, care of , New York. "Without waiting a moment she put on her hat ;uid shawl, went out and dropped it into .letter box before she had time to change her mind. "There, it is done," f-he said, as shere enteied the house, "If henegltctsme he ihall not triumph o er me," JJut in n few hours her mood changed, al. woman like, she began to fear she bad acted too rashly in the matter. Howard "Wellington, pale and weak from the t ffccts of an exliaurting ill ness, sat in an easy chair in his room. Tor weeks he had hovered ietwtn life nd death, insensible most of the tfcue. When (Veils letter was handed to him lie opened the envelops with quick, nervous lingers, as he recognized the handwritimr. M darling." he murmured, "how I wish vou wer here. Your soft touch and loving smile would almost make me well acain. What is tins? Noth- "ing but a note and my letter returned?" and he uttered a low cry as if a knife had pierced his heart, for there, instead of the expressions of affection he had expected were the freezing words: Mil Wellington : Your letter, came too late. What its contents may be is not of the slightest consequence to me. You have forfeited my love. Take our dismissal it is what you have been wishing." "Cecil." Theshjsk cause! a sudden I change and although the doctor had said that morning that he was doing finely, when the nurse came in in he was in a faint ing fit. liut recovery had set in, and he soon began to rally again, and day after day grew stronger. All the reserve force of pride in his nature came to hi s aid, even as it came to Cecil. "I will not seek an explanation," he thought "ahe lias ceased to love me, that is certain, and the cause can be of no consequence to me. Perhaps she has grown angry at my long silence. Why did she not say so? i would write and explain that I have been sick, but the tone of her note forbids me. 1 will be as proud as she ; aye prouder. "Why, Cecil, I never knew until to day that Mr. Wellington had been at death's door," said one of her callers to Cecil, a few weeks afterward. "I should have thought you would have men tioned it." "I didn't know it. How did you hear?" and Cecil's li s grew white as she remembered the returned letter. "liert was at the commercial house where he is employed, and heard them speak of ilr. Wellington's being sick. He inquired and found that it was Mr. Howard Wellington, of Philadelphia; so ol cou.se it's your friend. They Thought him dying for weeks; some sort of lever, 1 believe. The doctois said they never knew any one to be so low and yet recover." Cecil's face was as white as marble, but she managed to control lit rselr. "He is better now ?" she asked, "Yes, recovering slowly," said Miss West, noticing her agitation. And then she told the next lady she called on that she believed all was not exactly smooth between Cecil Sutheiland and Mr. Wellington. As soon as Cecil was alone she dipped her pen in the ink, ai.d with trembling lingeis wrote; "Hi.Ai: Howard: 1 never knew you had been sick until to-day. Porgive me for sending back your letter unopened. 1 thought you had slighted me. 1 w;is desperate. 1 had written you three let ters asking you why I did not heai irom you. I suppose now. you were too sick to know auytlnng about them. When 5 ours came at last, I had lost my iaith in you, and pride would not permit me tw open it. I would gladly undo the deed now, if 1 could. Please write and tell me how you are, and let me know that you accept my apoloey. 1 shall be all impatience lor vour answer. "Cecil." "He may send it back unopened," she thought. "It would sei veme right if he did."' liut day after day passed and it did not come back, neither did an answer reward her waiting. "He is too proud to forgive me. I might have known more than to have asked it. 1 must try to forget him. Heaven help me, for it is not so easy as 1 thought." So when Sylvester Hammond, who had loved her long but hopelessly, asked ner again to marry him, she consented. "The wond must never know what 1 carry in my heart. Mr. Hammond is noble and true; why should 1 not mar ry him and hide my disappointment? i can never love him, but 1 can respect him." Accordingly she acquiesced in bis wishes for a speedy mairiage, say ing 1 should like it better; I do not be lieve in long ei mgements." Several weeks had passed since Cecil sent the explanatory letter to Howard, and he was now his old-time self again, lie had crushed out his love for Cecil, that had been interwoven with his na lure, by the overmastering will that characterized him. He could not for get her intirely, but he thought her heartless, and schooled himself accord- uigly. 0::e day, while hurriedly tossing over some articles on his bureau, he up set a bottle of ink that he had left there carelessly ; the stopper dew out, and a stream of the daik fluid ran down be hind the bureau. He hastily pulled it Mit from the wall to ascertain the amount of mischief, but nearly forgot the accident as lie found lying there close against the wall an unopened let ter with his name on the back. He opened it hastily. It was Cecil's note oi-ni-uijitinii. He was nuzzled. He ooked at the date and then read it "Good Heavens!" he exclaimed. She wrote this in explanation, and I never received it. Wrote three times! T i.ev--r saw the letters. I wonder wb be came of them? This letter slipped be hind the bureau by some mysterious fate, I'll see if .lane knows anything about it, or about the others." He went in search of the girl, who happened to be in a room near by. "See the mischief 1 have been in," he said, showing her the ink. "Can't you make it all right again? I'm sorry to give you so much trouble," and he slip ped some silver into her hand. "Oh, yes, 1 can take it up in a few minutes," said the girl, cheerfully. -How do vou suppose this got behind the bureau?" 1 just found it there; it had never been opened and it is several weeks old." . Jane took the envelope in her hand. It was long and narrow, and directed in violet ink. "Oh I remember bringing this up one afternoon, and laying it on some waiters risht here where 1 thought you would see n as soon as you lighted the gas. I remember the long envelope and the violet int as well as if it were yester day." "Well, I suppose I came in in a hurry and pushed it .awkwardly I ehind the bureau before I 'ghted the gas, in the same way that I upt the ink. But I find, by reading this,mr there were some letters that came -0 me whtle I was sick, that 1 have nev. seen. Mr. Simmonds opened and answer an the business ones. These were friendly .!. nliot Yio H5n hi. ones, x wonuei !. "- - W1LU t,,o tri-cfi Tirnfnnnd for a momen- then went to a paper rack in the corneiy over the remark of some false friend, and took out its contents. Underneath all the reading matter lay three letters. She gave them to Howard, who was watching her eagerly. They had been opened, but proved to le the ones Cecil had written to him. "Mr. Simmonds told me to put them all carefully together until yu got better, and then give them to you," said Jane, regretfully; "but I forgot all about it" "Never mind !" he said cheerfully. "I hope there is no real harm done," and he sat down to read tliem. All the love which he had thought dead rushed back with overpowering force. "I don't wonder she was angry. She thought I was neglecting her. She ought not to have sent back my letter unopened, but I can forgive that. 1 know that she is proud and sensitive. Let me see. I can take a train this evening for Philadelphia. I must see her at once." Time moved altogether too slow for his impatient fancy. He reached the city too late to call that evening, but he decided to call as soon as practicable the next morning. As early as etiquette allowed, How ard ascended the steps of her house.rang the bell and asked for Miss Sutherland. He noticed that there were three or four carriages near, and that the e seemed to be an unusual stir. The girl gave him a quizzical look when he asked for Miss Sutherland, but said nothing and showed him into a back parlor. "No name," he said ; "tell her a friend wishes to see her." "Cecil, in a rich traveling dress, look ing cold and stately, opened the door and entered. She uttered aslightscream as he came toward her with outstretch ed hands and face radiant with gladness. Hut the words "My darling!" died on his lips as he understood by her manner that something was wrong. "What is the matter, Cecil ? Tell me for the love of Heaven! I never got your letter of explanation until yester day, and hastened at once to you." "Oh!" she moaned, dropping into a chair. "Why did you come now? If you had only come before! but now it is too late!" "Too late!" he exclaimed. "What do you mean?" and his foreboding heart anticipated the answer. "1 was married last night," she said, in cold, calm tones, "I thought you were dead to me. Don't you see 1 am dressed for my bridal journey ? Didn't you see the carriages? I have sacri ficed my happiness to pride. I must bear it now as well as I can." "1 was proud too," lie moaned, with white lips. "1 should have written again and explained. Oh, Cecil, this is cruel cruel !" "We must both live it down." she said in a steady voice. "My husband is an honorable man. I mu3t be true, though I do not love liim. Good-by !" They clasped hantts a moment, and she whs gone. Cecil met her husband a few minutes later, looking pale, but self-possessed. "An old acquaintance," she explained. "He was quite surprised to find me a bride." bo Cecil went on her bridal tour haunted by an undying regret, TTro verley Magazine. Carrier Doves. These useful birds increase in value with each new development of their usefulness. The latest application of the "homing" faculty, as it is called, of this bird, is the establishment of com munication between lightships and the shore, at times when it is impossible to convey intelligence by any other method. The maratime code of signals is taken advantage of, and two or three letters are stamped on the wing, intimating the nature of the assistance required. The bird is then let loose, and makes its way to its haunts on shore. By this means many a shipw recked mariner may be saved from death. In a great many cases a "pigeon service" might be made to supercede the electric tele graph. This would but be reviving the practice of the great stockbrokers at the beginning of the century. During the war relays of pigeons were kept all along the road from Paris to London, so that these speculative gentlemen ob tained the earliest news of the course of events. The carrier pigeon came in to special prominence during the late seige of Paris ; letters photographed on the minutest scale, were carried to and fro by its means. The Prussians could not intercept the birds, and ended by adopting the system themselves. At the present time every fortress and forti fied town in Germany is provided with docks of trained pigeons, by which means communications could be sent into town, if invaded by a hostile force. The True Lady. Beauty and style are not the surest passport" to respectability. Some of the noblest specimens of womanhood the world has ever seen, presented the plainest and most unprepossessing ap pearance. A woman's worth is to be estimated by the real goodness of her heart and the purity and sweetness of her character, and such a woman with a good disposition and a well balanced mind and temper, is lovely and attrac tive. If her face is ever so plain and homely, she makes the best of wives tuid the truest of mothers. She has a higher aim in life than the beautiful yet vain and supercilious woman, who has no higher purpose in life than to flaunt her finery in the streets, or to gratify her inordinate vanity by attract ing flattery and praise from a society whose compliments are as hollow as they are insincere- Keep Stra'gnt Ahead. Pay no attention to slanderers and gossip mongers. Keep straight on in your course, and let their back-biting die the death of neglect What is the ip of lvim? awake at niaht. brooding that runs through your brain like light ning? What is the use of getting in a worry and fret over gossip that has been set afloat to yeur disadvantage, by some meddlesome busybody who has more time than character? The things cannot possibly injure you unless, in deed, you take notice of them, an in combating them give them standing and character. If what is said about you is true, set yourself right; if it is false, let it go for what it will fetch. If a bee sting you, would you go to the hive to destroy it ? Would not a thou sand come upon you? It is wisdom to say little respecting the injuries you have received. We are generally losers in the end, if we stop to refute all the lrck-biting and gossiping we may hear by the way. They are annoying, it is true, but not dangerous, so long as we do not stop to expostulate and scold. Our characters are formed and sustain ed by ourselves, by our own actions and purposes, and not by others. Let us always bear in mind that "calumnia tors may usually be trusted to time and the slow but steady justice of public opinion." A Day with the Oneida Community. It will be seen that when people visit the Oneida Community they may have a day of quiet pleasure, with suh gen tle amusements as men and women may like to enjoy. But there are no great excitements, no horse-racing, no liquor drinking. Not even a particle of tobac co can be bought on the place. Never theless, people seem to like it They have free use of a piano and an organ in the large hall, and may sing and play to their hearts' content. Many of the wo men learn something by studying com munity cooking. All of them get new ideas of household arrangements. The men like to examine the blooded cattle and go through the shops. And it often hapDens that unlooked for entertain ments offer, as in the case of Adams, the jedestrian. It is one of the advan tages of the Communist that he does not have to go abroad to see sights and shows and to hear music. They come to him. The lesser wonders visit the greater. Hotel Life. While the novelty Ia3ts, the wife and mother, weary with the cares of an es tablishment of her own, rejoices in the freedom afforded her by hotel life. It is all very pleasant spacious rooms, good attendance a great variety at ta ble plenty of excitement and compa ny; one has nothing to do at all excupt to make arrangements for pleasure.and feel that one Is really in the world. But what is the influence of this easy, aim less life upon the moral character? In dolence is almost enforced in a hotel ; the dropping into this j (arson's and that person's rooms, this person and that person dropping into yours, the neces sity of calls upon those who have been properly introduced, the lingering at table, the morning gossip, the multifa rioii3 engagements that would never lie made were oire living at home all these render work impossible. Domes tic life is utterly destroyed; and while wives are relieved from its responsibil ities, husbands are relieved of all the restraints. The desirability of dressing as well as the next woman, occasions a myriad of demands and exactions on the one side, that become annoying and wearying, and sometimes unbearable, on the other. The husband and father, seen seldom but at meals, and then in the presence, if not in the full hearing, of others, runs great dauger of soon beii g regarded only as a convenient vehicle for paying kills. Home is no place of sanctity to him, no permanent and peculiar shelter. It is everybody else's home, as well as his, and the word conveys to him no sacred meaning. Hotels have their uses; but for family life they are totally unfit They are calculated to make the best of husbands careless, since there are so many things to take the place of his attentions; they will make the sweetest children refrac tory and subject to the acquirement of bad habits; they will brush the bloom off the most delicate woman, and by close contact with unknown numbers, give her an air that would be brazen if she were les3 a lady. Therefore, the simplest home, with all its cares and responsibilities, is safer and better for all. Take Warning. "When a burly youth betakes himself to the vile habit of carrying concealed weaions, he straightway broods over the act of killing somebody as a thing to give him high standing in the com munity. The current of his thoughts always in this channel wears away mor al restraint and then on slight provoca tion he becomes a murderer, hated by God, shunned by good men; perhaps hanged like a dog, or imprisoned to show a white face beyond iron grates the balance of his life. Young man. start not downhill thus ; otherwise, let us say farewell to you as a felon as a wretch whose damnation is certain! What! will you go to God's bar with tne red hands of a murderer? Will the friends who applaud you as a bully, soothe you in the death hour when the mystery and helplessness of the last dread change drape3 the universe in the blackness of darkness? What good will your pistol do you then? Think! Hare a Good Cry. A French physician is ont in a long dissertation or the advantages of groan ing and crying in general, and especial ly during surgical operations, fie con tends that groaning and crying are two grand operations by which nature allays anguish; that those patients who give way to their natural feelings, more speedily recover from accidents and operations than those who suppose it unworthy a man to betray such s m toms of cowardice as either to groan or cry. He tells of a man who reduced his pulse from one hundred and twenty-3ix to sixty in the course of a few hours by giving full vent to his emotions. If people are at all unhappy about any- thing, let them go into their rooms and comfort themselves with aloud boo hoo, and they will feel a hundred ier cent better afterward. In accordance with the above, the crying of children should not be too greatly discouraged. If it is systematically repressed, the re sult may be St Vitus's dance, epileptic fits, er some other disease of the nervous system. What is natural is nearly al ways useful ; and nothing can be more natural than the crying of ch'ldren warn anything occurs to give them ei ther physical or mental pain. "Mother, mother, here's Freddy teas ing the baby. Make him cry ag.iin, Freddy, and then mother will give him some sugar, and I'll take it from him : then hell squall, and mother will give him some more, and you can take that, and we'll both have some."
