\j& 7 yet it always
1"v brought with it a
- • wS- strange , s\v ee t
'H ' thrill. Truly sis-
5 " = St > terly affection was
. s a holy and a ucau-
. - tiful thing ! She
had read as much in moral philosophy ,
and likewise in poetry. Few feelings
could compare with it in unselush fer
vor and constancy. And , as she had
said , Edward was one brother in ten
thousand and not to be compared with
common men.
She began the preparations for the
two pursuant to her
drive at half-past ,
husband's directions. Not that she
expected to leave the house that after
noon , Edward's judgment being , in her
estimation , but cne remove from infal
libility ; she could not believe < hat the
trial of the horses would result as Mr.
Withers had predicted , hut that they
would he remanded to the stable and
custody of the unreliable jockey with
out appror.ching her door , or gladden
ing Harriet's ces. . Nevertheless , the
order had gone forth that she should
don her cloak , furs , hat and gloves be
fore three o'clock , and Mr. Withers
would be displeased were he to relurn
at five and find her in her home dress.
Harriet tapped at her door before she
was half ready.
"Just to remind you , my dear ma
dam , " she said , sweetly , "of what iry
cousin said about keeping the horses
standing. " She was equipped cap-a-
pie for the excursion , and Constance re
newed her silent accusation of imper
tinent forwardness as she saw her trip
down stairs to take her station at a
front window , that "my cousin" wight
see , at the first glance , that she wr.s
ready and eager fcr the promised and
because promised by him certain
pleasure of the jaunt.
Constance was surprised , five minutes
before the hour designated , to hear a
bustle and men's voices in the lower
hall. They had really come- then , in
spite of her prognostications. . Draw
ing on her gloves that she might not
be accused of dilatoriness , she walked
to the door of her chamber , when it
was thrown wide against her by her
maid.
"Oh , ma'am ! " she blubbered , her
cheeks like ashes and her eyes bulging
from their sockets. "May all the bless
ed saints have mercy upon ye ! There's
been the dreadfullest accident ! Them
brutes of horses has run away , and Mr.
Witherses and Mr. Edward is both
killed dead ! They're a bringing them
up-stairs this blessed minit , and"
catching her mistress's skirt as she
dashed past her "you ' re not to be
frightened , ma'am , the doctor says ! He
sent me up for to tell you careful ! "
Unhearing and unheeding , Constance
wrested her dress from the girl's hold ,
and met upon the upper landing of the
staircase four men bearing a senseless
form. The head was sunk upon the
breast , and the face hidden by the
shoulders of there who carried him. but
her eyes f ll instantly tipov5 the right
hand , which hung looselyy" his side.
She recognized the fur gauntlet that
covered it as one of a pair of riding-
gloves she had given Edward Withers
at Christmas , and which he had worn
since whenever he drove or rode. She
bad seen him pocket them that morn
ing before going out.
"Mrs. Withers ! my dear lady ! you
really must not touch him yet ! " said
the attendant physician , preventing her
when she 'vould have thrown her arms
about the injured man. He pulled her
back by main force , that the body
might he carried into the chamber she
had just quitted.
"Let me go ! Let me go ! Do you
hear me ? " her voice rising into a
shrill scream that chilled the veins and
pained the hearts of all who heard'it.
"Dead or alive , he belongs to me , and
to no one else ! Man ! how dare you
hold me ? You do not know how much
I loved him my darling ! Oh , mv dar
ling ! "
The doctor was a muscular man , hut ,
in her agony of despair , she was
stronger than he , bade fair to master
him , as she wrestled to undo his grasp
upon her arms.
"Is there no one in this place -ho
can persuade her to be calm ? " he
asked , imploringly , looking back down
the stairs.
There was a movement at the foot
of the steps , then the crowd parted in
stantly and silently , unnoticed by the
frantic woman. She was still strag
gling , threatening and praying to be
released ; when a pallid face , streaked
with blood , confronted her a tender
hand touched her arm. "Constance ,
my dear sister , my poor girl , come
with me ! Will you not ? " said com
passionate tones.
"She has fainted. That is the best
thing that could have happened , " said
the doctor , sustaining the dead weigat
of the sinking figure with more ease
than he had held the writhing one.
They bore her ncross the hail to Ed
ward's room as the most convenient ic-
trcat for her in her insensible state , and
while the maid-servant loosened her
dress and applied restoratives , a more
anxious group was gafikered in her
apartment about her husband. His vis-
ibis injuries were severe , if not danger
ous. His collar bone and right arm
were broken , but it was feared that
there was Internal and more serious
hurt. Just as a gasp and a hollow
groan attested the return of conscious
ness , a message was brought to Edward
from the opposite bedroom.
"She do call for you all the time ,
si" or I would not have made so bold
aC ; o disturb ye , " said the girl who
Jy | beckoned him to the entrance.
"She is a hit out of her head , poor
lady ! "
"Where is Miss Field ? Why doer
she not attend to Mrs. Withers ? " asked
Edward , glancing reluctantly at his
brother's bed.
In after days he could smile at the
recollection of the reply , uttered with
contemptuous indifference : "Oh , .lie's
a-going into high strikes on the back
parlor sofy. "
At the time , he was only conscious of
impatience at the call of pity that
obliged him t leave his perhaps dying
relative in the hands of comparative
strangers. He ceased to regret his com
pliance when the tears that burst from
Constance's eves at sight of him were
not attended by the ravings which had
terrified her attendants. He sat down
upon the edge of the bed , and leaned
over to kiss the sobbing lips. "My
dear sister , precious child ! " he said , as
a mother might soothe an affrighted
daughter , and she dropped her head
upon his shoulder , to weep herself into
silence , if not composure.
When she could listen , he gave her
the history of the misadventure in a
few words. Mr. Withers had insisted
upon handling the reins himself. This
accounted to the auditor for his use of
Edward's gloves as being thicker than
his , although their owner made no men
tion of having lent them to him. The
horses had behaved tolerably well un
til they were within three blocks of
home , when they had shied violently
at a passing omnibus , jerked the reins
from the driver's hands , and dashed
down the street , the sleigh upset at the
first corner , and both the occupants
were thrown out , Mr. Withers striking
forcibly against a lamp-post , while Ed
ward was partially stunned against the
curb-stone , They had been brought to
their own door in a carriage , the
younger brother reviving in time to
alight , with a little assistance from
a friendly bystander , and to superin
tend the other's removal to the house
and up the stairs.
Constance heard him through with
out interruption or comment , volun
iarily raised her head from its resting
place , and lay back upon her pillows ,
covering her face with her hands. One
or two quiet tears made their way be
tween her fingers ere she removed
them , but her hysterical sobbing had
ceased. "I am thankful for your safe
ty , " she said so composedly that it
sounded coldly unfeeling. "Now go
back to your brother. He needs you ,
and I do not. I shall be better soon ,
and then I must bear my part in nurs
ing him. If he should ask for me , let
me know without delay. " She sent
her servants out when he had gone ,
and locked her door on the inside.
"Who'd have thought that she and
Mr. Edward would take it so hard ? "
said the cook , as exponent of the views
of the kitchen cabinet. "If so be the
masther shouldn't get over this , it will
go nigh to killing her. I never knowed
she were that fond of him. Ah. well ,
she ought to be , for it's her he'll leave
well provided for , I'll be bound ! Them
as has heaps to l' ave has plenty to
mourn for them. "
An hour elapsed before Mr. Withers
understood aright where he was and
what had happened , and then his wife's
face was the first object he recognised.
It was almost as bloodless as his , yet
she was collected and helpful , a more
efficient coadjutor to the surgeons than
was fidgety Harriet , whose buzzings
end hoverings over the wounded man
reminded Edward of a noisy and per
sistent gad fly.
The moved gentleness of Constance's
tone in answering the patient's in
quiries was mistaken by the attendants
fcr fondest commiseration , and the
family physician's unspoken thought
would have chimed in well with the
servant's verdict. Mr. and Mrs. With
ers were not reputed to be a loving
couple , but in moments of distress and
danger , the truth generally came to
light. No husband , however idolized ,
could be nursed more faithfully or have
excited greater anguish of solicitude
than spoke in her dry eyes and rigid
features , even if her wild outbreak
at first seeing him had not betrayed
her real sentiments.
In her calmer review of the scene ,
Constance could feel grateful for the
spectators' misconception which had
shielded her from the consequences of
her madness ; could shudder at the
thought of the ignominy she had nar
rowly escaped. But this was not the
gulf from which she now recoiled with
horror and self-loathing that led her
to avoid meeting the eyes bent curious
ly or sympathetically upon her , and to
cling to the nerveless hand of him
whose trust she had betrayed. To
him , her husband , she had not given
a thought when the dread tidings of
disaster and death were brought to
her. What to her was an empty mar
riage vow , what the world's reproba
tion , when she believed that Edward
laj- lifeless before her ? "Man ! j-ou do
not know how I loved him ? " she had
said. She might have added , "I never
knew it myself until now. " And what
was this love coming when , and as it
did but a crime , a sin to be frowned
upon by Heaven and denounced by
man ? A blemish , which , if set upon
her brow , as it was upon her scul , would
condemn.her to be ranked with the out
cast of her sex , the creatures whom
austere matronhood blasts with light
nings of indignant scorn , and pure vir
gins blush to name.

V'v' after his health ,

"Certainly not ! Nothing would give
me more pleasure ! " As he said it , the
respondent turned with a pleasant smile
to his sister-in-law , Avho was pouring
out her husband's chocolate at a stand
set in front of his lounge.
She started perceptibly at the prop
osition and her hand shook in replacing
the silver pot upon the tray. "I could
not think of it ! " she said hastily. "It
is kind and thoughtful in you to sug
gest it , Einathan , but , indeed , I greatly
prefer to remain at home. "
"It is my preference that you should
go ! " The invalid spoke decidedly , but
less irascibly than he would have done
to anyone else who resisted his author
ity. "It is now four weeks since my
accident , and you have scarcely left the
house in all that time. You are grow
ing thin and pale from want of sleep
and exercise. "
"I practice calisthenics every day ,
as you and Dr. Weldon advised , " re
joined Constance , timidly.
"But within doors. You need the
fresh out-door air , child. You have
taken such good care of me , that I
should be very remiss in my duty , Avere
I to allow you to neglect your own
health. "
He had grown very fond of her with
in the period he had mentioned , and
showed it , in his weakness , more open
ly than dignity v/ould have permitted ,
had he been well. He put his hand up
on her shoulder as she sat upon a stool
beside him , the cup of chocolate in her
hand. "Recollect ! I must get an
other nurse should your health fail.
You see how selfish I'am ? "
A jest from him was noteworthy ,
for its rarity ; but Constance could not
form h r lips into a smile. They
trembled instead in replying. "I see
how good and generous you are ! Inill
drive , if you insist upon it , but there
is not the slightest necessity for your
brother's escort. John is very careful
and attentive. Or , if you wish me to
have company , I Avill call for Mrs. Mel-
len. She has no carriage , you know ? "
"Send yours for her whenever you
like , by all means. But , until I am able
to accompany you , it is my desire that
Edward shall be with you in your
drives whenever this is praticable. My
late adventure has made me fearful ,
I suppose. Call this a sick man's fancy ,
if you will , my dear , but indulge it.
At twelve , then , Edward , the carriage
will be ready. Ascertain for yourself
before you set out that the harness is all
right , and have an eye to the coach

FEATHERED LOVERS.
The aiale Sous Bird Studies His r.adj-2
\Vants.
A class of lovers that may well he
considered is that of which the blue
bird is one conspicuous example and
the goldfinch another the class in
which the females do all the work of
nest-building , while the males devote
themselves to singing , says the Chau-
tauquan. At first thought these males
are so very much like some men that
we all know men who are pretty and
are given to compliments and who are
enabled to dress well through the wis
dom and labor of their wives that
they are slightingly spoken of by near
ly all students of bird habits. Even
the gorgeous Baltimore oriole is but
half complimented , for he only occa
sionally helps at the nest-making. But
let the observer consider the cases of
these birds a little further and it ap
pears that the oriole , at least , is de
serving of sympathy rather than faint
praise. No one can watch the oriole
lady at her knitting for any length of
time without seeing her good man try
to help. He will bring something and
offer to weave it in , but the chances
are that the madam will first order
him off and then , if he persists , make
a dash at him with her bill that sends
him mourning to another tree. He
really mourns , too , though in silence.
I have known of a case where a male
oriole sat watching his wife for a half
hour without singing a single note. The
bluebird , too , is often treated very
brusquely by his little better half. The
truth is the poor fellows who have
been derided for singing in idle de
light while their wives toiled are not
a little henpecked. The goldfinch can
not be called henpecked but he certain
ly does not deserve censure. Madam
huilds her nest because she can do it
better than he can. That he would
like to help is perfectly plain to one
who watches , for he goes with her as
she flies away for material , sits by her
as she picks it up and flies hack with
her as she returns to the nest to weave
it in. And wherever he , goes he bub
bles over vvith song. People who blame
the males for not helping to build do
not understand , I think , the difference
between work as we see it and work
as birds see it. To us labor is drudg
ery ; to the birds it is delightful play.

"Why , you see , everything was ready.

Advnntnzn of Sleep.
In reply to the question , is it wise for
a man to deny himself a few hours'
sleep a day to do more work , Tcsla ,
the great electrician , f > aid : "That is a
great mistake , I am convinced. A man
has just so many hours to he uwakc
and the fewer of these he uses up each
day. the more days he will last ; that
is , the longer he will live. 1 belie\o
that a man might live 200 years if he
would sleep most of the time. That is
why negroes often live to advanced old
age , because they sleep so much. It is
said that Gladstone sleeps seventeen
hours each day ; that is why his facul
ties are still unimpaired in spite of his
great age. The proper way to econo
mize life is to sleep every moment that
it is not necessary or desirable that
you should be awake. "
