Ours was a runaway match and a

As tho bitter realization of tier fate
crew upon her, a deadly rage, a hideous
'fipcli took possession of hor, and a
season dragged on when foul days were
ours. I becamo degraded and shamed
in my own eyes; a sickliness camo be
tween mo and all the world's light;
ambition, faith, and all things noblo
.died within mc.
One night my wholo spirit of endur-
3uv:o died. Thero was a pnsslonato
econe, and a struggle over which I draw
a veil. I left my wife wounded and I
knew beyond hope of recovery. I fled
far into tho country.
' Months passed. I had secured a sec
.. retaryshlp In a growing town by wild
.and distant but boldly picturesque hills.
JV winter passed, and spring came, and
with its greon unfolding my heart
lightened and expanded, too. I had got
but meager details of my wife's fato
tfrom the local papers. She recovered
, ,L:Crom her wound, but a drink-mania
j .(Seized her, and her condition been mo

dnrlng one Btago too far," said .tho
townsfolk, and then with sorry humor,
"sho was not ono that loved wnter for
its own nako; yet it has given her a
grave." Then I heard no moro news
from the old place. I wanted no more.
I tried to bury Its memory.
With tho green unfolding of spring,
as I havo cold, my heart and my life
expanded. Up among tho mountalus,
In tho prettiost of cottages, I camo to
know ono who brought back all the
delightful fever of tho flno young world.
Ethel Wilson was 18, a'n only child,
nnd tho tenderest flower in that In
6omowl8o primitive mountain land. A
wild thrill runs through mo as I recall
our dear, gracious ovonlngs in tho lit- t
tie flower-garden fronting tho cotlago, ,
or on tho bold mountain road that ran
beside It, Tho Bummer grow, and May,
and Juno made a glowing and holy
sotting to our love. After a lurid,
fiend-haunted night I had awakened In
tho sacred flush of songful morning. '
Ah, Ethel, Etholl J
Memorablo memories arise of the
wedding morning when wo sped away
to the lake country. Lovely memories
como of that glorious stroll In tho gath
ering night, nnd tho roturn to our hotel, :
llko a return Into Eden. Hallowed
times of tenderness, fringed with poaco
though pence, as tho stars peeped out ,
in a shining sotting to our wedding
Joys, was a llttlo ponslvo,
Ethel had gono ror a moment to tho J
Inner room, and I wntched tho fair
prospect from tho window of tho other.
Ah, I was full of tho passion and rap
turo of a now, full-hoartod life.
Suddenly thero wero heavy steps on
tho landing, tho door was thrown open
quickly, nnd with a rude, accursed
laugh Mrs. Whymper as I always call
ed her staggered In. Her face told a
molancholy Btory of drink and degra
dation. "Hal" sho said, in tho malignant note
I can never descrlbo; "you see I havo
como to your wedding."
I havo but a vague momory of tho
ensuing scene, with tho blackness and
tho madness that camo over me. Ono
thing only will I say In my own Justifi
cation. My deepest rago arose at tho
thought of tho position in which I had
placed poor Ethel. Heaven knows I
was Innocent of tho shadow of an in
tent to wrong her. How was I to know
that my first wife had been rescued?
I had seen no later papers from tho old
place. I had had no tidings, and want
ed none.
As Ethel returned to tho room, white
fncod and terror stricken, I hnd struck
Mrs. Whymper her death blow.
And so I dlo tomorrow. Dear, dear
Ethel, but for you, how gladly I would
lcavo tho wounding world! Ha! Sho
comeB. It Is tho hour of our last In
terview. Now tho gods give mo truo
endurance.
Kyrle Harding was wrong. Tho vis
itor then wna not Ethel. It was tho
messenger with tho tidings of roprlevc.
"Pcnnl servitude for life" was to bo his
fate.
"They will release you yet after
years, aftor years!" sobbed Ethol, a few
days later, an sho sobbed farewell; "but
Kyrle, I will watch and wait with a
brave heart," That was many
a year ago. Today they are ponslvoly

Accustomed all their lives to tho jingle
and clack of bells tho horses did not
know qulto how to act when they heard
the lively tlng-a-llng of tambourines
and tho strumming of banjos. Some
of tho horses thought It wps a signal
to go ahead and others regarded the
sounds as n command to stop.
A horse trainer, however, gavo tho
animals a course of Instruction so that
they now are quite tho equal of Sev
enth cavalry mounts as far as discip
line Is concerned. When the captain
plnys on her banjo tho opening bars
of "Break Away, Break Away from
Sin!" tho horses know It means "Col

cpenlng melody of "Hallelujah" means
charge, and tho soothing strnins of
"Kick out tho Devil" Is understood by
the horses to mean "Halt for Sing

MILADY IS MILKINQ COWS.

Interested in parish work, Invented, or
rather Inaugurated, this fad for charl
tablo purposes, with tho result that bo
clety has taken It up and for tho mo
ment tho Holstclns and other breeds
of cattlo aro wondering what on earth
is the matter. Bazaars may net consid
erable for tho church, but to seo dainty
daughters of society In plcturcsquo
coslumo or evening dress Bitting on the
inwn milking a gentle-eyed cow Is bo
great a novelty every man for miles
around will como and buy a glass of
milk for sweet charity's -jako, thereby
swelling tho receipts for milady's pet
work. What tho cows think of it can
not bo recorded. Their expression
would load ono to suppose they feel
highly honored. Milady's tapering
fingers and deft manipulation of their
udders does not lead them to suppose
she is not an expert, nor can it be said
sho is not. As soon as milady is In
terested, languid and Indolent as sho
may Beem, whatever 1b a fad with her
will quickly bo learned. It was with
Borne trepidation, however, that tho
milking of cows began. Every time
tho cow looked around or switched her
tall milady grew frightened and ex
pected tho pail to bo kicked over. On
ono or two occasions this did happen,
to tho great amusement of tho persons
who stood around. Wo Bhnll hear of
Innumerable lawn fotcs, whero the
principal feature will be tho milking of
cows by society women this summer,
and many a flirtation, carried on over
the milk pall, will later on terminate
in an ongagement In the conservatory.
There Is nothing more bewitching than
two rounded arms, bared to the elbow,
two roguish eyes glancing up at you, a
sensitive mouth smiling at you, and

sign, and then she is like a picture.
Two or three girls whose houses are
adjoining had tho cows brought up
near the veranda 'and while milking
them kept up a fire of conversation
about tho current evonts in society.
Another time six society women de
voted a morning to tho "art" or milk
ing. Six cowb wero led on the lawn
and six men, who were experts, taught
their mlatresaes how to milk. What
a sight for the bystander! In dainty
muslin gowns, large picture hats, the
milkmaid of society cuts a dash, as she
does in everything.

WHV PERSIA IS PEACEFUL,
Mohammedans Are Not ns Ascreiitlve
There as They Are Elsewhere.
Communications from Persia explain
the remarkable quletudo of tho people
nnd tho absenco of the usual attempts
at rioting and assassination, notwith
standing tho violent removal of tk
lato shah, says tho Edinburgh Scots
man. For moro than a generation
there has been in Persia little or nono
of tho Mohammedan fanaticism which
la at present foredooming tho more or
thodox rule of the pultan of Turkey.
Tho Shlah form of Islam, which pre
vails In Persia and In North India also,
Is considered a dangerous heresy by
all other Mohammedans. The Porslan
Mujtahids and Moollaa aro few in num
ber, and oven they are not unaffected
by the growing Soofl belief, which sat
urates Persian literature and Is really
a form of HIdoo pantheism. Bishop
Stuart, tho Edinburgh citizen who has
given his later years to continuing tho
works of Henry Martyn and Dr. Bruce'
at Isphan and Julfa, as well as at Yezd
and Kerman, finds tho people open to
tho Influence of medical missions and
schools. What tho Soofl mysticism be
gan, In sapping tho tenets of Islam,
has of lato been continued to an even
wider scalo by tho Babl faith, which
is held Intensely, though secretly, by
about 1,000,000 of the people. All Ba
bls aro friendly to Christians. Islam
Is rapidly losing Its hold on Persia,
Occasionally when the church mission
aries seem too openly active tho paid
Moollaa try to excite tho mob to ter
rify tho converts, but they treat the
blBhop and his colleagues with pro
found respect, as their fathers treated
Henry Martyn at Shlraz. Six converts
from Islam havo recently been baptized
in Julfa alone In spite of the legal
death penalty,, and they are most ef
fective agents among thel- kindred and
countrymen. The largo coioa" of Ar
menians in Julfa prospers and ad
vances in culture, sending out represen
tatives to Calcutta, Bombay and tho
chief trading centers of southern Asia.
Bishop Stuart finds them willing co
adjutors, so that altogether Persia, for
the time, presents, a striking contrast
to Turkey. Tho EnglUh mission in
Persia gained a hold on the gratitude
of the people In tho famine of 1871-72,
when Bruco and Gordon were the only
men who saved the people, but tho
earlier Sir John Malcolm and Martyn
are not forgotten.
Stopped the Kxcltement.
When Charles Hutchinson, the eldest
son of "Old Hutch," but a very differ
ent sort of man, was president of tho
Chicago stock exchange, he calmed a
tumult In tho pits one day by coming
out upon a little balcony abovo tho
crowd and standing with his hand up
raised in an attitude half commanding,
half entreating. Everybody stopped
talking after a little while to see what
tho beloved "Charley" had to say. But
all that he Bald was "Gentlemen, gen
tlemen!" It turned tho tide of affairs
that day almost as effectually as clos
ing the stock exchange might havo
done. Boston Transcript.
