JEfflE MINISTER'S WIFE
H ( coKct-ur.r.i ) . )
It wna not the reputation of the Rev.
H Silas Ormsby that drew so largo nn al-
H tcatlsaxva at the little church on the
H start Sabbath. Curiosity led most of
H these who wore TjonnctB and crinoline
H fiMihcr , and it was gratified to the ut-
H . sbjcwJ , for In his very first prayer the
H fc > W ScaUeman uttered a devout and
M -nsamesi annplicatlon for the pastor of
14be congregation , who at that very mo-
H xneni , perhaps , took unto himself the
B solemn obligation of married life.
M 3JIgct Henvcn give him strength , and
M ltcsa him and his young and pious
H j&tUi , etc It was a prayer worth 11st-
M < join ; ? to , but the ladies of Appleblow
H heard nothing after the word .wife.
fl They were lost in astonishment ; and
H Worried out of church , after the bene-
M -cXicUon , with indecent haste , to discuss
B the affair by their own firesides. And
H on Monday , , when it was known by all
H thathlark Betty , the charwoman of the
H "place , was engaged to scrub and scour
H * ho parsonage ; that . an ingrain carpet
H J&rtd been sent down from New York
H far the parlor floor , and that a tea-set
H fei < 3 arrived In a box , marked "this side
H - qjwith care , " the certainty of the asH -
H onlsfcins fact became established , and
H JVjjpleblo ' joined in denouncing Mr.
H SSedlaw Tia a despicable flirt. "And , "
H kimI the plump mamma of the nine
H ecrsssy Misses Pish , "of all men , a
H ' tnlztster should blush to earn such a

W hymn-books , presents from Walter

Wmslill Gtrong on the next Sabbath when
H "Xhe minister walked up the church
WM aish > Willi a beautiful girl upon his
WM ana , and the Appleblow girls looked
Wm upon a face so exquisite that none of
Wm them could resort to the usual course
H a declaring her "not the least good-
WM Tanking. "
B They were decorous and prudent in
H Appleblow , and all the forms of cour-
H tftsg * vrere gone through with. The new
H minister's Avife was invited out to , tea ,
wM wan called upon by the ladies of her
WM 'Cock , and was favored with a donation

B KaI feeling in Appleblow. The ladies
WM < lld not take kindly to their pastor's

WMnot zealous In good works. By-and-by

H < mly with the minister's wife , but with
H the minister himself.
B The woraea began it ; the men were

H I- first step was taken. 'Squire Gorse and
BfkMs family gave up their pew , and
Htcrand themselves more edified by the

think of me , If I , their pastor's wife ,
fled at such an hour. "
The man listened at first unconvinc
ed. "Wo owe them nothing , " he said ;
"they have used U3 shamefully. Re
member , I am actually their pastor no
longer. "
But his wife gently pleaded ; pleaded
to stay midst the danper , to aid him in
the duties which would fall to him
amidst the sick an.d dying ; and , touch
ing his heart and soul by her sweet
Christian spirit , brought him at la3t
to say : "You shall have it as you
choose , Rosa ; we will stay amidst this
hard.heathcncd-hcartcd people in their
hour of trial ; but , God sparing us , we
will leave them when it is over , and go
elsewhere. "
And Rosa Rcdlaw rejoiced and
thanked him. But bye-and-bye a
natural womanly dread came Into her
heart , and she looked at him with tears
in her dark eyc3. "Walter , " she whis
pered , blushing as she spoke , "you
have often called me beautiful. Should
1 lose that beauty , could you love mo
still ? Should this pestilence , falling
upon me , scar and mar my face , would
I be as dear to you ? Speak truly ,
darling. "
But he had no need to speak , for she
read the constancy and purity of his
love in the one long look he gave her ,
and sobbed upon his shoulder "Nay ,
then , I shall have no fear. "
At dawn the two went forth upon
their mission.
In their selfish horror , kinsfolk fled
from each other. Sisters shrunk from
those who had been nursed at the same
breast , children deserted their parents ,
friends grew brutal to each other ; but
those two joung creatures never
swerved from their appointed task :
like ministering angels , they went
from house to house , aiding the over
tasked physician , supporting the moth
er's failing courage , coming to the
lonely and deserted in their greatest
need. Sometimes they were together ,
but more frequently apart , there was
so much to do. When they could , they
met at night in the old parsonage ; but
often dying couches or sick beds ,
whore lives hung in the balance , kept
them separated for several days. But
their hearts and prayers followed each
other always.
It was a trying time , but they were
very bravo and faithful. Some of those
who had been most cruel to Rosa Red-
la were her patients now , and lay
helpless as infants while she fanned
the flickering flame of life within their
bosoms.
When , rave for her , no friend had
watched beside the couch of loath
some disease ; when in the death-room ,
pestilence-haunted , she sat all night
and watched ; when her own hands
robed the dead infant for its last
slcen , and it was known to all what
mission she had taken upon herself ,
wonder filled the village , and in a lit
tle while there arose to Heav
en so many prayers for Rosa Red-
law and her husband that , had the
Mohammedan belief been true , they
need have had no dread of the "burn
ing path , " it must have been paved so
thickly.
And in time , though that day was
slow in coming , the pestilence began to
abate , and health came to Appleblow
again , with the sharp frosts and keen
cold air of the Christmas time. On
Christmas day joy-bells were rung
from the steeples in Appieblow , to tell
the people that the rod was lifted.
But before night sad news ran
through the village. She who had
watched with them , who had been so
tender and so faithful , who had pass
ed through those fearful scenes when
the nestilence was at its worst , as
though she wore a charmed life , was
smitten , now that she was no longer
needed.
The shutters of the parsonage were
closed , the windows darkened , silence
as of death reigned throughout its
rooms , for the angel of the house lay
trembling on the margin-of the grave.
Another pastor preached this Sabbath
in Appleblow , and all knew well why
he was there. Walter Redlaw watched
beside his darling's bed , and never left
it day or night.
Penitential tears fell in Appleblow
that Sabbath ; prayers went up to
Heaven for the pastor's fair young
wife , and the angels heard them , and
heard also those of the young husband ,
and bore them through the gates of
Heaven , and sang them to celestial mu
sic at the foot of the Throne , telling
how good she was , and how true , and
so fit for heaven that it were a mercy
to less perfect mortals to let her stay
on earth.
And the Most High listened. The
death angpl's wings flung their shadow
on the portal of the parsonage , but did
not pass it ; and , pale and feeble , but
with life still strong in her young
breast , for she clung to her husband
with all a woman's earnestness , and
loved earth for his sake. Rosa Redlaw
lay at last free from the burning fe

churcti-ytrd groups were fetfien ? ! #
girls and boys , young married coupes ,
old foka who had seen their grand
children grow to be men and women
and die. And , waiting in the morning
sunlight of a pleasant winter day ,
they saw their pastor coming along the
frost-hardened road with his wife upon
his arm. They came nearer , and they
saw how frail her form had grown ; but
still her veil was down , and they could
not see her face until standing amongst
them , she put it back , and then yes ,
breaths were held , and all eyo3 riveted
upon those features ; and there was a
hush , unbroken , until a child's voice ,
clear as dropping silver , arose upon the
air : "Oh , mother , look ; the lady is just
as beautiful as ever. " And then , though
it was Sunday , and in New England ,
and beside a church.a cheer arose upon
the air , and men tossed their caps on
high , and women sobbed ; she sobbed
also , beautiful Rosa Redlaw , thanking
God for all his love , and thanking Him
also , as a woman must , that He had
not taken from her the charms in
which her husband took such tender
pride , and of which , for his sake more
than , for her own , she was also just a
little proud , though she had laid that
pride aside , knowing well her danger ,
when- she went forth upon her mis
sion.

They never spoke against the min
ister's wife after that ip Appleblow.
Amongst them she lived and moved as
might some loving queen , and dwelt
in tlie old parsonage , beautified as the
temple of some saint might have been ,
until her youth changed to maturity
and her maturity to age ; and there you
may see her yet , and her husband also ,
though his hair , like hers , is of frosted
silver. And his grandson fills the pul
pit , for Appleblow loves the race of
Redlaw , and will not part with them.
Had Many OfTer1 * .
Africa is the greatest place in the
world for the now woman and the old
maid. For the former it has its
charms that would put the Bois de
3oulogne in a total eclipse , and for
the old maids it is a tropical paradise ,
where yoang , unmarried men , bloom
in wild , tangled luxury the year
around. Mrs. May French Sheldon , the
African explorer , writer and lecturer ,
is neither a new woman nor and old
maid , and yet she had sixty proposals
of marriage in one day from sixty
separate and distinct chiefs , each of
whom was more stalwart and ardent
than the others , and Mrs. French Shel
don was compelled to give each separ
ately the marble heart. And as for
the new woman , why , the African ex
plorer says they can give our brand-
newest bloomer-rigged species any
number of cards and spades and then
discount them. Bebe Bwana , the
woman master , cr the white queen
man , as the merry sultans and dusky
chiefs called Mrs. French Sheldon , has
penetrated farther into the mysterious
heart of that dark continent than any
other white woman has ever done , and
the other day she told a reporter a
number of interesting experiences
which she had among the many tribps
she visited.
The sixty offers of marriage were
made one afternoon after she had form
ally received the sultan of one of the
interior districts in her tent which
tent , by the way , Mrs. French Sheldon
always arranged as near like a boudoir
in a well-appointed private house as
was possible. She was the first white
woman who had ever invaded that
district and the sultan appreciated the
honor and in his poor weak way tried
to give a sort of torchlight procession
and strawberry festival in her honor.
His resources , however , were extreme
ly limited , and after he had sacrificed
a double portion of goats and had
salaamed before her until he was
threatened with curvature of the spine
he felt that something was still lack
ing and that his guest was not thor
oughly enjoying herself. Suddenly a
happy thought struck him. Whenever a
straggling white man had wandered in
to his preserves it had been his cus
tom to unload sixty or eighty wives
upon him and then dismiss him with
a sultanic "Bless you , my children. "
Why not reverse the ceremony with
the woman master ? he argued to his
secretary of state for war. The spcre-
taiy thought it was a capital idea and
the chiefs of all the tribes or assembly
districts were ordeied before his ma
jesty and ordered to propose to the
Bele Bwana at once.
Great TiUa Wts. .
Those who see the rise and fall of
the tides in our Atlantic harbors sel
dom think of the wonderful caicer of
the moon-raised ocean-waves which
cause the tidal flux and reflux. Such
billows not only cress the sea , but flow
from ocean to ocean , and in this way
complicated movements are set going.
Thus , as Mr. Vaughan Cornish has re
cently leminded English readers , onee
in every twelve hours the moon raises
a tide billow in the southern Indian
Ocean. When this billow passes the
Cape of Good Hope , at noon , its successor
ser is already born , and by the time
the first billow has reached the Azores
Islands , at midnight , the second is
rounding the Cape , and a third has
come into existence in the southern
ocean. By 4 o'clock in the morning
following its passage of the Capo the
tide billow reaches the English Chan
nel and there the shallow water de
lays it so much that it does not arrive
at the Straits of Dover until 10 a. m.
Here the narrowing Channel causes the
tide to rise very high and almost puts
an end to the wave. In the meantime ;
another branch of the billow runs
around the western side of the British '
Islands , rounds the north point of Scotland - i
land , and moves slowly down the eastern - *
ern coast of England , until it finally i
flows up the Thames and laps the i
wharves of London. , 1

A Tliroc-Yeiir-Old Couple Found oh Their
Way to a Minister' * .
The youngest eloping couple on rec
ord spent several hours In Allegheny
Central police station yesterday after
noon. They were Charles M. Douglas ,
aged 3 years , and Margaret Carpenter ,
aged 3 years and G months. Both tots
are flaxen-haired and blue-eyed. They
appeared much in love with each other ,
and were somewhat indignant because
they weie prevented from going to a
minister to be wed. Miss Carpenter
j , had her arm linked in that of her boy
lover , and they were hurrying along
North avenue , headed for a minister's
house , when a lady met them and
asked them where they were going.
"Marderet and me's doin' to det mar
ried , " spoke up Charles , while Mar
garet hung her head and blushed. The
lady laughed and asked Margaret if it
was true. The would-be bride nodded
her head and tried to pull Charles past
the inquisitor. The lady turned them
over to a policeman , who learned their
names , but they did not know on what
street they lived , so he sent them to
central station , where they were placed
in charge of the matron , Mrs. Mary J.
Kellogg. It was amusing to watch the
tiny couple. Charles is a gallant and
most affectionate lover. His arm
would steal around Margaret's waist ,
and he wasn't a bit pleased when she
made him remove it. At the station he
again asserted his intention of marry
ing Margaret. He admitted that he
was rather young , but said that did not
matter. When asked what he wanted
for a wedding outfit he said : "A
wagon with 15 wheels to haul his wife
and her doll that can cry and laugh ,
and "a parasol to keep the warm off. "
Charles was asked by Mrs. Kellogg if
he really and truly loved Margaret ,
and he replied , "Yes , " promptly. When
a like question was put to Margaret
one blushed and said "No. "
"Say 'Yes , ' Margaret , " Charles said
coaxingly , as lie slipped his arm again
around her waist , and she obeyed him.
"Do you ever kiss Margaret ,
Chailes ? " Mrs. Kellogg asked.
"No , he don't ! " Margaret put in. "I
won't let him. "
"I do when it gets dark , " Charles ex
plained.
"Will you kiss her now if I give you
a cent ? " Avas asked.
"Yes , " Charles replied , and , putting
his arms around her , he kissed her as
though he was used to that sort of
thing. [
Their parents took them home abo.it
6 o'clock and explained the children's
behavior. There is to be a wedding in
one of the families soon , and the babies
had both heard a great deal of talk-
about it. Pittsburg Post.

It Was an Ktcullunt I > oj- .
Tne story is told of Li Hung Chans
that during his recent trip some one •
sent him a present of a beautiful and
valuable dog. Li acknowledged the
gift , saying that he was not in the
habit of eating that particular variety
of dog , but that it had been served to
some members of his suite and that
they had pronounced it excellent.

JOSH BILLINGS' PHILOSOPHY.
I don't suppose the biggest phool haz

yet to surprize us all.
The strongest intimacys seems to ex
ist , not between two hartes , but whare
the lied ov one controls the harte ov
the other.
Thare haz menny a woman married
a man just for the sake ov getting rid
ov herself ; this iz a sad waste ov the
raw material.
The yigle v/immin , if they only knu

a general thing , they don't seem to kno
.how to uze it.
Absolute sincerity may exist , but mi
trade with human natur haz taught mete

that will pan 45 cents on the dollar.
If man would only follow hiz reason
az clussly az the animals do their in-
stinkts , he could afford to take the
chances ov the hereafter very coolly.
The man who is allwuss anxious to

grate doubts about hiz judgment , or
haz got a kounterfit bill he wants to
get rid ov.
I hav finally konkluded to take all

hav cum from having mi most ardent
withes gratified.
It kosts more money , reckoning time
worth a dime an hour , to learn any

I have known men and wimmin to
bekum thoroly disgusted with the

not understand that it waz themselfs
they waz disgusted with all the time.
An illustrious pedigree iz a grate
burden , and responsiblity. To lug
around the bones ov a distinguished
great-grandfather and do justiss to the
bones and kredit to ourselfs , iz a cluss
transackshun.

Napoleon's Army lli'Toro Wutrrloo.
On the eve of hostilities Napoleon
had 124,000 effectives , with 3,500 in his
camp train ; Wellington had 100,000 ,
but of these 4,000 Hanoverians were
left in garrison ; Uluchcr had about
117,000. Neither of the two allied gen
erals dreamed that Napoleon would
choose the darinir form of attack upon
which he decided , that of a wedge
driven into the scattered line nearly a
hundred miles in length upon which
his enemies lay , for to do so he must
pass the Ardennes. But he did choose
it and selected for the purpose the val
leys of the Sambre and the Mouse.
Allowing for the difference in typog
raphy , the idea was identical with that
which , nineteen yeats before , lie had
executed splendidly in Piedmant. Oc

lilrmliiclmnrb Parks.
One feature rather surprising to an
American is that every park is made
for use. there is no fear lest the grass
may be injured , but in every ground
adapted for them are cricket and foot
ball fields , picnic grounds , croquet
lawns , tennis-courts , bowling-greens ,
the use of which is permitted for a
merely nominal payment. Every park ,
large or small , has one or more con
certs each week during the summer ,
paid for by a neighborhood subscrip-
