THE ROOM BENEATH THE RAFT

Soaetitncs whoa I havo .dropped to sleep,
Draped in imoft, luxurious Rloom.
Across my drowsftiK mind will creep

Forth from his mud-walled hanging house.
Droned in tiLi black and yellow blouse.
Ther". summer dawns, in drop I stirred,
And wove into my fair dream's woof
The chattering of a marlin b nl.
Or rain-drops pattering on the roof.

For somo wore ln.ting. firm and fair.
An.l I am one who lives to say
My life has held more old than gray.
And that the fipiondor of tho real
Surpassed my early dreams ideal.
Hut still I live to wander back
To that old time and that old place:
To thread my way o'er Memory s track.
And cuftoh the early morning's grace
In that quaint room boncat'i tne miter.
That echoed to my child Mi laughter:
To dream again the dreams that grew
More beautiful as they ojiiic true.

really is the prettiest little
1 oversaw," said Mr. V illough-
by Vane, as ho turned from the window
for the fiftieth time that morning.
"Jane," he added, acfdrossin the house
maid, who was clearing av.'ay the
breakfast tiling, "have you any idea
who the people are who have taken old
3Ir. Addcrly'H house opposite?"
p "Well, yes, sir, if you please,'' re
turned the han((-maiden. "I met their
cook at tho grocer's th other day, aid
he said that her master's name was
Hhick Capting Choker 151a k and
that he waistayinir'here on leave of ab
senee'Hvith'hifi wife arid daughter, .sir.'"
"Oh, indeed: did .she happen to men
lion I he young lady's name?"
"Yes, ir: .she called her Mi-: Fva."
"Kva What a charming mime.'"'
murmured .Mr. Willoughby to himself;
itml ihci) he added aloud:
"That will do, Jane, thank you'
Mr. Willoughby Vane was a bachelor,
twenty-eight years old, rich, indolent
and tolerablv good-looking. lie lived
with a widowed mother in a pleasant
house in Albany, and, hav-ng nothing
else to do, had f:ilicu desperately in
love with Irs pretty riv-rt-w, and anx
iously sought an apporltmily for an in
troduction. However, having discov
ered the name of his enchantress, he de
termined to address her anonymously
by letler.
Having decided upon taking this step,
the next thing to be done was to put it
into execution, and having shut himself
iu.his litlle. study, after many futile at
tempts, ho succeeded in training an
cpisile to the lady to his satisfaction,
begging hor, if she valued his peace of
mind, to return an unswer to "VV. V.,
l'ostoflico, Albany." That done, ho
went out for a walk, and dropped tho
Jetter in the nearest box.
llegularly three times a day for a.
week afterward he called, at tho post
ollice to see whether an answer had ar
rived for him. As the week advanced
Willoughby began to lose his appet te,
and grow ho restless and irritable that
Airs. Vano, like a fond mother, landed
that her dear boy was unwell, and
begged him to consult, their medical
attendant. lint her son laughed at the
idea, knowing well that Irs complaint
-was boyond the doctor's skill to cure.
He was beginning to despair of ever
receiving a reply, when, to his great de
light, ou tho seventh morning a letter
was handed to him by the postmaster,
written in a dainty leinalc hand, and
addressed to "W. V." Almost unable
to conceal his emotion ho quitted tho
post-ollicc, broko open the seal and
drank in tho contents.
They Vore evidently of a pleasant
nature, for ho road the letter over again
nnd again, kissed the envelope, put it
into "his breast-pocket, and hurried
home to sec his inamorata looking out
of the window of tho j(posite house as
usual.
For a moment his first impulso was to
salute her respectfully; but immediate
ly afterward he bethought himself that,
as he was still incognito, the young
lady would perhaps feel insulted by the
action. Besides, how could she have
any idea that he was "W. V?" So he
wear, in-doors and amused himself for
three, hours in inditing a reply to her
letter, wh.ch he posted tho same after
noon, and in due course a second an
swer arrived.
And so matters went on, a constant
interchange of letters being kept up for
n fortnight, during which time Mr.
Willoughby Vane spent his davs in run
ning to and from the post-oluce, writ-I
jug letters and watching his fair neigh
bor from tho window of the dining
room. "Confound it'." ho would sometimes
say to himself. "How provoking the
dear girl is! She never will look this
way. 1 do wish I could catch her eye,
if only for a moment. What a horridly
sour-rookiug old crab the mother is!
Depend upon it, Willoughby, that poor
child is anything but happy at home
with these two old fogios. Indeed,
her letters hint as much. And having
giving vent to his feelings, he would
put on his hat and walk to the post-office,
or shut himself in his room and
compose another note to his "Dearest
Eva.'1
At length three weeks having tlown
rapidly away in this manner, he re
ceived a letter one morning from the
young lady, which ran as follows:
To-w. v
?ir As it is useless to continue a corre
spondence in this manner, I think it :s now
tune for you to throw olf your incognito, an J
xevcal your true name and position to ono to
whom you uro not totally indifferent. Believe
me that nothing inspires love like mutual
-couliilencu. Prove to me that I have notbeen
imprudent in answering your letters, by at
once inlorming ine who you are. It is with tin
iee'.irisr of idlo curiosity that I ask this, but
.fi.inp'y for our mutual satisfaction. Yours,
etc "Eva."
To which Willoughby replied by re
turn of post:
"DBAm:!T Kva (if you will permit mo to call
you so): Have you not for weeks past ob
served aj young mar., with his hair brusned
back, anxiously watching you from the win
dow ot the opposite house? And. although
t-ou havo apparently never taken tho si ght
ost notico of him. 1 trust that his features are
-not altogether repulsive to you. I am that in
dividual. '
'Charmed by the graceful magic ot thine
eye,
Day after day I watch and dream and sigh:
Watch thee, dream of thee, sigh for thee
.Fair Star of Albany may I add mie own?'
to quote with some alterations the noble
stanza of tho poet -Brown. And now I hare a
favor to ask you. Whenever you see rae at
the window tako'no notico of me at present.
Jest my mother should observe it. In a few
,..lays she will be gone out of town, and then
are caa throw off all restraint. Till, then,
adieu! Adieu, my adorable one. adieu! My
eyes arc ever on you. Your own,
"WiLLocounr Vjjsr,"
To which epistle came the following
answer:
Dkah Sin: Your explanation is perfectly
satisfactory. I may also add, your features
ttrc not at all repulsive to Kva."
"IJlcss her! what a delightful little
soul she is!" ejaculated Willoughby.
And he went out, ordered a new suit
of clothes and had his hair cut.
'Willy," said Mrs. Vane to her son
the next morning, "I wish 3011 would
do something to improve your mind,
and not waste vour time looking out of
the window alf day as you havo lately
done. Come and read tho Assembly
debate. to me if vou have nothing else
to do."
The worthy lady was a red-hot poli
tician, and lor three mortal hours she
kept him at his delightful task; at the
expiration of which time he succeeded
in escaping to his own room, where he
wrote the following note to Kva:
DrAitE-rr I'v a.: I uin over'oye 1 at the con
tents of your brief comtmii.caMon. If. as
you fay. mr features are not alJ03cthr re
pulsive to you. may I hope that jou will con
sent to be mine mine only.'
"Wit.r.oroHBr."
Back came the reply the next morning:
Dkah Vtr.!.ormiBr : Your reply ha made
me feci very happy. It Is very dull here no
Hociety except f.ither mil mother. I long for
men; congenial companionship. Thine,
Eva."
In this delightful manner the days
few on halcyon days, too, thev were
for Willoughbv, and sweetened bv the j
interchange of tlrs and similar lover
like correspondence. On tho following
Monday morning Mrs. Vane left towu
on a visit to some friends in Saratoga,
leaving her son to keep house, at home.
The same r.fternoon one of Captain
Black's servants brjnjrht the following
note for Willoughby:
Wim.ie: Mine you any oh'cctioii to my
telling inv dear pipa a'l' Mnt'crs have now
gone to lar ihut it will IhjI nposlb!e tor either

us take pap t Into ur confidence. I know Ins
kind and eeeeruiis tuture well, and h.ivc no
fear that he will oppose our union. J'ray send
uiea line by heater. $ Kva."
The answer was as follows:
"31 v ows Kva: Do whatever you consider

'Wn.i.orRiiiiv.' j
That evening, just as Willoughby had
finished dinner, he heard a lo d double
knock tit the street door, and on its bemg
opened a strange voice inquired in a
loud tone:
"Is Mr. Willo lghbv Vane at home?"
His heart beat violently as Jane, enter- tongue then, I'll w.ior," said the Cap
ing the room, said: j tain, addressing tho vouncr of the two
"A gentleman wishes to speak with ladies, who immediatelv rose from her
you in the library, sir.
.And she handed him a card, inscribed
"Captain ( hoker Black, One Thou-'
sand and First Kcgiinent, N. G. S. N.
I will bo with him in a moment," said
Willoughby; and ho swallowed a cou
ple of glasses of sherry to nerve him for
the interview.
"Captain Choker Black. I believe?"
he said, as he entered the library.
"Your servant, sir," said tho gallant
Captain, who, glass in eye, was busily
engaged in scrutinizing an engraving of
iIk: Battle of Gettysburg. "Vour ser
vant, sir. Ilae I" the pleasure of ad
dressing Mr. Willoughby Vauo?"
Willoughby bowed.
"Then, sir, of course 'ou know the
business that has brought me hare?"
Terribly nervous and scarcely know
ing what answer to make, our hero
bowed again.
"Come, come, sir. don't bo afraid to
speak out! My daughter has made
mo her confidant, so let there be no
reserve between us. Eva has told me
all!"
Hero poor Willoughby blushed up to
the roots of his hair.
"You see, I know all about it. You have
fallen desperately in love with the poor
girl; and although you have never ex
changed three words together, you aro
already engaged to be married. Mighty
expeditious, upon my word! Hatha!
ha! Tray, excuse me for laughing,
but the idea is somewhat comical! Ha!
ha! ha!"
As the Captain appeared to be in a
very good humor, Willoughby's courage j
began to rise,
"Don't mention it. sir. You aro her
father, and have a right to do what 'ou
please. But I sincerely tru-t that you
have no objections to oiler."
"I? None! Believe me, 1 shall be
delighted to sec my Eva comfortably
settled. But, hark ye, sir. Business is
business. 1 am a plain, blunt man, and
fifteen 3'cars' sojourn with one's regi
ment on the plains doesn't help to polish
one. First of all, what aro jour pros
pects?" And the Captain drew a note-book
out of his pocket, and proceeded to ex
amine our hero as if he was in a court
of justice.
"You are an only son, 1 believe?"
"I am."
"Good." And down went the note in
uhc pocket-book.
"l'our age?"
"Twenty-eight noxt birthday."
"Twenty-eight! Good. Is vour con
stitution healthy?"
"1 believe so. I have had the measles,
whooping-cough and mumps."
"Disorders " peculiar to infancy.
Good." And the Captain scribbled
away again.
"Are you engaged in any business or
profession?"
"None."
"Then how on earth do you live?"
"On my private income, Captain."
"Then all I can say is you're an un
commonly lu.-ky fellow to bo able to
subsist on that. I only wish I could.
What is your income?""
"About four thousand a year."
"Is it in house property, shares in
limited companies, or in Governments?'
If in ptrlic companies, I should be
sorry to give two years' purchase for
the lot."
"In the new four per cents.'
"Good. I think I may sav verv good.
What sort of temper are 3-011?"
Well, that's rather a difli ult ques
tion lo answer," said Willoughby, smil
ing for the first time.
"Hang it, sir, not at all!" returned
tho Captain. "If anyone asked me
my temper, I should say: 'Hasty, sir,
confoundedly has y" And Choker
Black's proud of it, sir proud of i!"
"i-ay about the average," answered
Willoughbv, timidly.
"Temper average." sa'd the Captain,
jotting it down. "I think theso are
about all the ciuesttons 1 have to ask
you. i'ou Jcuow mv daughter bv

"I" have had the pleasure of see'ng
her frequently from the window, sir. '
"And vou think vou could be happv
with her?"
"Think, Captain! I am certain of
it."
"Very good. Now, hark ye, Mr.
Willoughby Vane. Marry her. treat
her well and be happy. Neglect her,
blight her 3oung afleetions b harsh
ness or cruelty, and hang me, sir, if I
don't riddle 3on with bullets! Gad, sir,
I'm a" man of my word, and I'll do

" I have no fear on that score. Cap

"One word more." said Wiilonghby.
"Ami to understand that you con
sent to our union?"
"Certainly. Vou can be married to

"Captain, you overwhelm me with
gratitude."
"Saj no more about it. Clap on
your hat and come across the street
with me, and I'll introduce you to my
daughter at once."
Si arcely knowing what ho was about
Willoughby did as he was told. They
crossed the street together, and the
I Captain opened his door with a latch
key.
"One moment, if you please." said
Willoughby, who was t.tivating his
hair and arranging his cravat.
"Are you ready now?" asked the
Captain.

Captain, ushering our hero into the

"My daughter, sir," said the Cap

"And this ," ejaculated our hero,

Mr. Willoughby Vane lied from his
home that night. About a month later
his almost broken-hearted mother re
ceived a letter from him explaining the
whole affair; and the post-mark bore
the words: "Montreal. Canada."

All nations, we belief, savage and
civilized, in all ages, have been monu
ment builders, that is. thev have all
practiced the custom of erecting struc
tures, whether mounds, or
cairns, or
tombs, or tunnels, or pillars, or eol
umns, or pyramids, or obelisks, or
guacas, :is in F'eni, in commemoration
of important ovents, or lor tho purpose
of consecrating and perpetuating the
fame of great men. or of those who had
exercised, for tho weal or voe of their
country, great authority. At first these
structures must havo been rude, insig
nificant and perishable. Kvon the
memorial erected to so great a hero as
Hector was but a very modest ono, a
mere heap of stones, looselv thrown to

lwtl Jt
Among tho ancients, the Greeks ami
Romans were in architecture, sculpture
and painting, far ahead of all other
uations not in antiquity, but in merit.
Leaving out of view the Chinese and
other Asiatics, of whose marvelous ar
chitectual creations some rather indi
gestible stories have been told, and
coming west to the countries bordering
on the Mediterranean, the Egyptians
aie first in order in ihe constructive
arts. They were the masters of the
Greeks in art, and in civilization itself;
and 3et, not many ages had elapsed be
fore the Greeks weregroatly in advance
of their teachers in the ver' arts, the
rudiments Of which thej had borrowed
from the conntr of the Pharoahs. Be
fore architecture or sculpture hail been
attempted by the Greeks, the pyramids
and .the obelisks had been standing.
per.aps. in tteir solitary and useless
magnificence, some thousands of 3'ears.
But soon after their erection, Egyptian
art seems to have exhausted itself, and
then to have stopped, or rather, retro
graded. To the Egyptian mind, in the
constructive arts excellence consisted
in magnitude and height, and those be
ing attained, they had reached, they
supposed, the ne plus ultra. But. al
though the pyramids are .stupendous
and sublime, thev have nothing of the
graceful and the beautiful, in which the
surviving specimens of Grecian art so
abound, and there is more elegance and
good taste, more of the quintessence of
art in a single Grecian temple or statue,
than in all the pyramids togethe .
France has excelled all the modern
nations of Europe in the magnificence
of her monuments, among which the
"Arch of Triumph" and the "Column
in the Place Vendome" are consp'cu
ons. The only trouble with the French
monuments iAhat they have to be re
dedicated as the Bourbons, tho Repub

"Oh, and not take c:ire of Baby any
more? Goody Goody!"
Allen was fairlv wild with delight
He wanted to start that ver' minute,
and all night he kept waking up to ask:
"Is it morning 3et'"
The wonderful ride iu the ears was
all too short for Allen, who had never
been out of Newark before. The;
stopped at a lovely little town and
walked right ut to a lovely little house,
and there were the three funny old
ladies on the piazza wailing for them.
".bo vou have decided to give us vour
little hoy at last." said the hrst one.
"I am er' glad you have, said the
second.
"So am 1." said the third. "And
this is the little boy! Oh. the darling!"
Then followed a gre-it kissing and
netting, and the oldest little o!il lady
had her pocket full of peppermints, and
the next a beautiful picture-book, and
the third three little puppies to show
.Allen.
"If they aint just like rats!" he cried.
"See them, mamma! Why. where !
she?"' and he looked anxiously at the
three little old ladies, who looked
anxiously at him. but did not speak.
Then it flashed across Allen that these
wicked people meant to separate him
from his mother.
"I want my ma-a-a-ma'" he scream
ed, leaving the puppies and running for
the door. But Miss Carrie, the oldest
of the little old maids, caught him in
I j,Pr arm; and thev all began promising
mm presents
"A beautiful new pairof pants," said
Miss Annie, the second little old lady.
"And a whole box full of candy,"
aid Miss .Jennie, the youngest.
"And a handful of pennies."
But Allen did not want their pennies
nor their candies. "Where is my
mamma? 1 will havo my mamma."
ho cried.
"1 am your mamma now," said Miss
Carrie.
"And me too," said Miss Jennie.
"Me too," said Miss Annie.
"You arc not!" cr ed Allen, indig
nantly. "Y'ou naughty, wicked lie
people! Let me go!"
But thev wouldnot let him go.
They took him into a pretty room
where a lunch was spread on a table,
and for one moment Allen forgot his
homesickness as Miss Carrio sj read a
mulhu with 'Clly, and Miss Annie
heaped a saucer full of raspberries, and
Miss Jennie cut a big slice of cake tor
him.
Suddenly he burst out crying. "Oh.
how Baby- would like some cake! I
want to take a piece of cake to Baby!"'
"You will never have to take care of
Baby any more. Won't that be nice?"
saidMiss Carrie.
"No. it won't!" sobbed Allen. "I
want my PaDy. I lour to take care of
her," and he cried so that the old ladies
trotted him off to take a nap, saying he
was tired out.
There was a littlo white bed in a
pretty room for himself alone. Miss
Carrie said, but Allen was not to be
