A Song of Love’s Coming.
To aome Love comes so splendidly and
soon,
With such wide wings, and steps bp
royally.
That they, like sleepers wakened sud
denly.
Expecting dawn, are blinded by his noon.
To some Love comes so silently and late
That all unheard he is and passes by.
Leaving no gift but a remembered sigh,
While they staj^d watching at another
gate.
But some know Love at tlie enchanted
hour;
They hear him singing like a bird afar;
They see him commg like a falling star;
They meet his eyes and all their world's
in flower.
When Ned Dalton married Una Per
kins the village gossips reaped a har
vest.
Every one had something to say
except the man whose heart was
smarting under the wrong dealt him
by the friend and schoolmate of his
boyhood and the woman he had loved
ever since she was a wee lass.
When some of his friends came to
him to offer sympathy, Tom Reed met
them with an impenetrable reserve.
He turned with renewed fervor to his
work upon a wonderful invention,
which he never ceased to believe
would one day make his fortune.
Una and Ned went to housekeeping
in a cozy little cottage on the edge of
the village, and for a time it seemed
as if the dark prognostications would
prove false.
Then Ned got into bad company and
neglected his wife and home. After
the baby came it was worse. Una
expostulated, entreated, rebelled.
They quarreled bitterly and one
dark,.dismal November night Ned
took the midnight train to Greenfield
and the next morning was speeding
away on the Northern Pacific express
to Seattle, the gold fever in his veins
and the Klondike a dazzling vision be
fore his eyes. He left a letter for
Una:
“I’ve gone to make my fortune in
the gold fields. If I never come back,
marry Tom. He always loved you,
and it will be some amends for the
wrong we both did him.
“NED."
Una read the note with blinding
tears, and fancied her heart was bro
ken. But as the months passed and
grew into years, and no word came
from her husband, it was Tom she
thought of most.
For the first year after her husband
left she watched every mail, hoping
that it would bring her some message.
Now five years had gone, and she had
given up all hope.
One day as she came home from
work, her mother met her at the
door. “Una, we have heard at last,”
she said, as she put a western paper
in her daughter's hands, and pointed
to a small notice marked in blue pen
cil.
Died—In Denver, May 18, Edward
Dalton, aged 32. Westbrook, Conn.,
papers please copy.
"Now Tom will surely come,” Una
thought. But he did not.
One day she learned that he was ill,
in dire poverty in a ne ghboring city.
She went to the address that had been
given her, and stumbled up the dark,
ill-smelling stairs to the wretched hall
bedroom that he occupied. Knocking
timidly at the door, she received no
response. She opened the door softly.
"Una!” He had awakened and rec
ognized her.
“Una, why have you come?”
“To ask your forgiveness, Tom.”
“You had that long ago. Do you
think I don’t know what you have suf
fered?”
“Then why have you stayed away
all these years, Tom?”
“Can you ask? Book around. What
Y '
Una read the note with blinding
"tears.
have I to offer any woman You’ve
had enough of poverty, my girl.”
“But your invention. Surely, Tom,
you can interest some one in that.”
"I’ve tried, Una—every friend I
know.”
“But have you tried our manager,
Mr. Norton? He made a fortune in oil
last year, and has plenty of ready capi
tal.”
"Why do you think he would help
me?”
“From something his wife told me.
You know, she has been such a friend
to me, Tom.
That was the beginning of Tom's
good fortune. Mr. Norton was inter
ested in his behalf and advanced
funtls. Soon Tom had regained his
former ^strength and was working att
day and long into the night at the fac
tory which boro the name of Nortoa.
Rood & Co.
Una and Tom wore married on the
day that tho factory wheels first start
ed to run, and even the village gos
sips admitted that they would surely
be happy at last.
And so they were until the tide
turned. A wealthier firm than Norton,
Reed & Co. manufactured sweaters
and ceps at prices with which they
could not hope to compete. Tom was
in desrair, for again ruin stared him
in the face.
One drizzling night a stranger
alighted at the station, took the only
cab the village afforded and told the
driver. Old Bill Streaker, to take him
to Thomas Reed's. On tho way they
conversed.
“Did you know a fellow who lived
here once by the name of Ned Dalton.
I met him out west,” the stranger said.
“Did I know Ned Dalton? Well, I
guess I did. Every one knew him.
Good hearted as the day was long, but
shiftless. Just about broke Una Per
kins’ heart, and played Tom Reed a
mighty dirty trick. Tom and Ned
were chums till Tom fell in love witli
Una, and then Ned cut. him out. Darn
ed if I know how he did, though, even
if he was a handsome cuss.
“But she got her reward all right.
wsm.1" iMjmumftiimtxwgni
I
Under the window he paused and
looked ir..
She and Ned lived a cat and dog life,
and one night he sneaked off to the
gold fields. She never see hide nor
hair of him after that, till one day
she heard he was dead.
“Then she married Tom. That’s just
about a year ago. They were happy
as clams at first, but they’ve had
mighty mean luck of late. They’re
poor as a church mouse, they say.”
When they got in sight of the
house the stranger gave the old man
a dollar and dismissed the cab.
Lights gleamed from the little cot
tage. The stranger stood a long time
leaning over the gate, smoking his
cigar. Then he threw it aside, set his
jaw, squared his shoulders, opened the
gate and walked up the path. Under
the window he paused and looked in.
Tom sat at tho open fireplace star
ing in at the fire. Una sat at liis feet,
leaning against his knee. Her boy,
sprawled at full length beside her,
played with a kitten. Una’s face was
turned toward the window, and it look
ed wan and white in the firelight.
Tom's hand was resting lightly on her
head.
A cold December rain was falling
hut. the drops on the cheeks of the
stranger were warm. Then he turned
and walked rapidly away in the dark
ness.
A week later Mr. Norton came to
Tom, his face radiant with good news.
“An order for 1,000 sweaters, caps
and leggings from Messrs. Lucky,
Strike & Co., Chicago, Tom!"
After that orders poured In so rap
idly that Tom could hardly fill them,
and with every order came a check
in payment. Other firms, seeing the
output of the factory, gained confi
dence In them, and gave them their
orders, and In a few months the busi
ness was on a paying basis.
Then one day Tom read the fol
lowing article, clipped from a Seattle
paper:
“The proprietor of the Lucky Strike
mine, on tho upper Yukon, who is said
to have’taken out some $5,000,000 of
gold in thfe last three years, owes the
discovery of this rich claim to the In
dians. He has repaid them In tho fol
lowing original manner: Every man,
woman and child of the entire tribe
hns received the present from him of
a woolen sweater, cap and leggings.
These garments are of as many colors
as Jacob’s coat, and the tribe is not
only the most comfortably clad, but
the most picturesque Indians we have
in the far west.”
Tom took the paper to Una. “Can
it ho—” His lips failed to speak the
name.
Some l*w months ago a San Fran
cisco paper printed the report of a
steamer lost ej route to Alaska.
Among the pas<vsger list was the
name of Ned Coli ns, who was once
tho proprietor of the Lucky Strike
mine, and who was known as Lucky
Ned Collins.
He had squandered a fortune in wild
plunging on the New York stock ex
change and was returning to Alaska
to retrieve his fortune. He was said
to have been worshiped by tho In
dians, who would erect a monument
to his memory on the site of the old
mine now deserted.
They did, and though the inscription
on the rude stone only commemorates
the generosity of Lucky Ned Collins,
Una and Tom read between the lines,
“I’ve made amends to you.”—Helen
Farr Hunter in Boston Globe.

HEAD NOISES CEASE IMMEDIATE^.'
F. A. WERMAN, OF BALTIMORE, 8AY8:
Baltimore, Md., March 30, iqoi.
Gentlemen .* — Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give yon
a full history of my case, to be used at your discretion.
About five years ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost
my hearing in this ear entirely.
I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted n num
ber of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this cit\, who told me that
only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would
then cease, but the hearing in the affected car would he lost forever.
I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat
ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noisesc.cascd. and
to day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I U :>rk you
heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours,
