I LOVE YOU
6I1C climbed upon my willing knee
And softly whispered unto me
I love you
Her dainty arms wore round my neck
Her sunny curls were in my face
And in her tender eyes I saw
The kouI of innocence and grace
And like a sunbeam gliding through
The clouds that hide the skies of blue
Her smile found access to my heart
And bade the shadows all depart
O moment of apocalypse
In which I saw the stately ships
That erstwhile sailed away from me
Come riding back across the sea
1 would you might return and stay
Within my lonely heart alway
-God bless the darling little child
Who looked up in my face and smiled
And wrought into my heart a spell
More sweet than songs of Israel
O angels listen while I pray
That you will make her life as sweet
As that brief moment was to me
Wheneer I heard her lips repeat
I love you

IM BOURN and I
were boys together
at Westminster we
went to Oxford to
getherto Balliol
we took our degrees
together in the
Classical Honors
School and were
ordained together
by the Bishop of
L as curates for
his diocese Here
our paths separated
for some years and when next we re
newed our old friendship I Avas the
vicar of the town still single at 34
and Jim was the chaplain of the fa
mous jail in the same town and mar
ried
We were talking in my study as in
plclen times Somehow the conversa
tion drifted to the subject of a recent
newspaper article Ought Married
People to Have Any Secrets from Each
Other I said No Jim said Yes
We both smilingly stuck to our text
It was not often that we differed in
iminion but this was one case anyhow
Why Jim said 1 you would have
been the last person I should have ex
pected to take that line for 1 am sure
from what I have seen that if ever two
folks were happy and loving they are
Ella and yourself I cant conceive of
your having any secret which you
would not wish Ella to know
Ah retorted he -with a peculiar
smile thats just it Well Howson
Ill tell you one if you like though
he added it must remain a secret be
tween us two I have never spoken of
It to any one in the world and never
shall except to yourself
Thanks Jim you need not fear me
as you know 1 am only curious to
know the case and I assumed an
attitude of eager attention to Jims
story
1 was the chaplain at Lowmarket
hs you are well aware before I came
here It is a pretty place and one won
ders whatever made the government
build a jail there However there it
is and there was T The amount of so
ciety that one got in Lowmarket was
perfectly astonishing nad I had the
time and inclination for it 1 might
have turned out a regular society
clergyman As it was I hud a full
amount of lectures soirees parties and
entertainments Among the people I
got in with none were nicer than the
Yorks Miss York a maiden lady of
50 lived in a large and beautifully fur
nished house called The Cedars in the
best part of the town She was known
all over the district for her charity
Kindness of heart and pure life Every
body had a good word for her Nor
was her niece Miss York any less pop
ular People in Lowmarket fairly wor
shipped both of them
I was 2S when I first saw Ella York
and at once succumbed to her charms
For weeks her praises had been in my
ears and now on acquaintance I
found her beauty her manners her
kindness of heart not one whit less
than report stated I loved her Of
course I could not say so at once and
whether after two or three meetings
In the course of my work for Miss
STork the elder took great interest in our
sphere of labor she guessed my love
and reciprocated it I could not then
iiy I found upon judicious inquiries
that Miss York Ella had lived with
her aunt from childhood that she was
now 24 that her mother was dead and
her father lived on the Continent for
his health also that she was her aunts
pole heiress These facts were of
course only learned by degrees as one
cannot go to the fountain head for such
snformation
After much heart searching and de
bating within myself I thought I saw
that Ella York was not wholly indiffer
ent to me and I resolved to ask her to
be my wife I need not go into details
as to how I did it beyond saying that
it was one summer morning rather
more than five years ago when having
gone to see her aunt who was out I
met Ella in the grounds and after talk
ing as we walked along on various sub
jects somehow it came out unexpect
edly and almost before 1 could eoin
preliend what it all meant Ella York
had promised to be my wife subject to
lier aunts consent
But her auht didnt consent I re
ceived a dainty note that night how
tenderly I regarded it Howson from
Ella saying that she had spoken of my
visit to her aunt and had told her I
was coming to morrow for her ap
proval Miss York had been very kind
but acted rather strangely and said
she would see me but she eotdd not
T JL
consent as she did not wish to lose
Ella My dear girl went on to say that
she had in vain tried to get from her
any more than this
I was in a curious frame of mind
as I went next morning to see Miss
York
I was destined to know her objec
tion As I approached the lodge the
porteress met me
Oh Mr Bourn this Is shocking
I was more puzzled than ever Why
my engagement to Ella should be
shocking I couldnt see and I no doubt
expressed it in my looks
So sudden too sir said the wo
man Nobody expected it
Whatevers the matter said I
Why havent you heard that Miss
York is dead No Oh dear Poor
think had a fit In the night doctor
says was quite unconscious when Miss
Ella got there and died at 9 oclock
this morning
My heart sank I felt faint and
giddy It was some minutes before I
could move You will never know how
it feels Howson unless you should
have such a blow which I hope you
never will But I am bound to say that
my one thought was My poor lonely
darling Ella
There were no more details to be
learned about Miss Yorks death She
was buried in Lowmarket churchyard
Ella was ill for weeks and could not
see even me When she was well
enough to attend to business it was
found that she inherited all her aunts
money and as she had already accept
ed me we were married a twelvemonth
afterward She had been awfuly lone
ly she said since Miss Yorks death
but no couple have ever lived happier
and been nearer and dearer to each
other thau Ella and I May God bless
her
Amen said I solemnly and rever
ently
Ella and I pursued Jim could
never give the remotest guess as to her
aunts objection to our engagement
and it would probably have remained
a mystery to me as it has to Ella even
now had it not been for the following
circumstances Some time ago I was
sent for at the prison to see a rather
desperate character whose end was
very near He had been sent to seven
years penal servitude some three years
before for forgery and after serving
two years at Portland had been trans
ferred to Lowmarket His appearance
was superior to that of the ordinary
convict even when a forger Although
I had seen him several times and cer
tainly been struck with his face and
appearance we could not be said to be
friendly as he had been indifferent to
all my advances
I found him living in the hospital
and I soon saw that he would not live
xery long
You seem pleased to see mo I
said
Yes sir replied No 152 T am
glad youve come I hardly expected
you would considering how standoff
ish Ive been But I wanter to see
you as the doctor says Im not likely
to last much longer
I talked to him about his soul and
spiritual things That we may pass
by Howson I believe he was thor
oughly penitent I asked him if there
was anything I could do for him
Yes sir there is one thing if you
will Its such a curious one I hardly
like to ask you His eyes looked eager
ly at me
Go on I said Ill do it if possi
ble
Ive had a queer life sir said the
convict I might have been somebody
and done some good but I got led
astray after marriage and broke the
heart of my wife who died soon after
ward Yes Ive led a bad life and its
precious few friends Ive had lately
anyhow But I hope I may be for
given as you say God will pardon even
the worst of us And if youll promise
me to do one thing when Im dead I
shall die happy
Ill promise as far as I can said I
What is it
Its to take care of your wife an
swered No 152 Ah said he smiling
I thought that would astonish you
Take care of my wife I gazed at
him In amazement Why of course I
shall But what is that to you
A great deal said he
Why
Because shes my daughter
1 looked at niin in terror and aston
ishment and was about to send for the
nurse and for the doctor feeling sure
he was rambling when be said slowly
Sit down sir please I cant talk
much longer You need not send tor
Dr Darton Im all right I feared it
would gve yor a shock sir as it gave
me one the firnt lime I saw her here
with you Ella York you see I know
her name all right was taken when
quite a child by her aunt who dis
owned me and never told the child
what her father was In that she was
quite right She changed her name
from Wilson to her mothers name of
York and completed the disguise
Whenever I desired and oh sir I did
often desire to see Ella my darling
Miss York has always threatened me
with the police and I knew better than
to have them on my track if I could
help it Yes sir I see you cant realize
it yet but youll find Ella Wilsons
birth and baptism in the registers of
Northfield and I give you my word it
is true
I sat in dumb silence What could
I say Ella my wife a cccvicts
daughter
Please sir dont tell her said he
She has never known dont let her
know But I felt I must tell you sir
and youll not think any worse of her
and his eyes looked pleadingly and
wistfully at me
My senses had somewhat returned
No said I of course not I am
hflJx dazed but I feel what you say is
trae But Ella is my own now and
always shall be -while I live I wish I
A
had not heard this but It cannot alter
my love for Ella
Thank God he said And sir
theres one thing more The doctors
say I shall sleep myself away Do you
think it could be managed for my darl
ing to give me one kiss ere I die just
one
Til try Yes said I she shall if
youll leave it to me
T will God bless you Mr
Bourn
I left him When I got home Ella
thought I was ill and indeed I was
Overwork I pleaded In another hour
they came to tell me he was asleep
and would not wake in this world
I took Ella with me to the hospital
Ella said I a prisoner who is dying
and who has no few friends told me
to day how he had seen you and would
like you to kiss him ere he died as his
own daughter would have done Will
you
Certainly my darling
And with eyes furl of tears she did
The unconscious form rose the eyelids
half opened the face smiled She
didnt know did she
I led her away weeping my own
heart full I afterward verified his
story But Ella has never known any
more Howson and never will There
is sometimes a secret which should not
be shared between husband and wife
Howson isnt there
Youre right dear old Jim said I
as he grasped my hand in silence but
with tear dimmed eyes Youre right
old fellow and God bless you both-

OPIE READS MENTALITY
His Information Covers an Astonish
ing Range of Subjects
Those who read Opie Reads books
may think they have some idea of the
mans mentality but it cannot be ob
tained in that way One must be per
sonally acquainted with him He is
one of the most interesting conversa
tionalists to be met in a lifetime As
sociation with him is a literary school
and yet he does not talk shop He
seems to have read everything and re
membered it He shows this in his
everyday conversation and without the
slightest pedantry or affectation No
matter what the subject under consid
eration he talks of it glibly and wise
ly from the standpoint of those who
have niade it a study seasoned with
common sense and logic lie is not a
politician on the contrary rather dis
likes political affairs but he talks of
such matters with a clearness strength
and spirit that would lead you to be
lieve he had made a special study of
parties their men and measures for
centuries and that he was altogether
past master of political economy It is
a part of the mans wide curriculum
He is entirely at home in what is best
for one to eat and is versed in hygiene
but he suffers from indigestion He is
informed upon the conventionalities of
high life and yet avoids conventional
society He gives strong reasons for
pessimism and yet he is a practical op
timist He loves literature but would
not allow the greatest author in the
world to read his manuscript to him
He is actually fonder of music than
any other man I ever saw and knows
not a note of it though he will catch
an air the first time he hears it He
loves art especially in painting but he
doesnt even write a good hand He is
an ardent admirer of women but does
not dance attendance upon them With
al he is great in body mind and soul
Womans Home Companion
Summed Up
It is estimated that the human fam
ily living on the earth consists of about
1450000000 individuals These are
distributed all over the world but so
unevenly as to be worthy of remark
Asia contains 800000000 people or
two thirds of the human race but it is
not the most densely populated having
only forty six to the square mile
That however is pretty dense when
compared with America with its 100
000000 and only six and a half to the
square mile
Still Europe carries off the palm for
crowding Three hundred and thirty
millions on her 3892234 square miles
is an average of eighty four to the
square mile
The continent of Africa harbors 210
000000 an average of seventeen to the
square mile while Australasia brings
up the rear with an average of only
one human being to the square mile
Of the worlds peoples about 500
000000 are well clothed and live in the
houses furnished with the appoint
ments of civilization 700000000 are
half clothed and live in huts tents and
caves that is to say are half civilized
and the remaining 250000000 wear
next to no clothing and have nothing
that can be called a home
It only remains to add that the rela
tive proportion of white black and
mixed races are five three and seven
and there is the world in a nut shell
Couldnt Redraw His Picture
An amusing story is told of the early
engraving days of the venerable and
lamented Sir John Gilbert Half a cen
tury ago or more he was commission
ed to illustrate a short story for a Lon
don weekly and was handed the proofs
to enable him to select the most telling
situation for pictorial representation
When he had finished the work the edi
tor remarked
Why Mr Gilbert the story says an
escort of infantry soldiers and here
on the block you have given us mount
ed ones
Dear me so I have responded the
artist but I havent time to do an
other drawing now Cant you make
an alternation in the story to make It
fit in
The copy was handed to a subordi
nate to make the requisite alteration
but that gentleman forgot to delete the
chapter describing how the soldiers
gained the summit of a steep moun
tain parts of which they were obliged
to scale with ladders Horses could not
have been got there unless by the as
sistance of a crane Afterward shoals
of letters from subscribers wished to
know how the cavalry got there Lon

SUBSTITUTES FOR PRAYING
Parrots and Prayer Wheels Amonjr
the Kalmuck Tartars
Finally if you spend most of your
time as I did among the natives on the
hurricane deck your attention will be
attracted by a third class of worship
ers namely the Kalmuck Tartars who
live In felt tents or kibitkas
along the lower Volga and who
wander with great herds of cattle and
camels over the steppes of Eastern
Europe and Western Asia These flat
faced ill looking nomads are all Bud
dhists and not only do they pray but
they may fairly claim the credit of hav
ing reduced devotion to a science Pray
ing five times a day as the Mohamme
dans do or even twice a day after the
custom of the fire worshipers seems to
have been too severe a tax upon the
energies of the original Buddhists and
they set their ingenuity at work to de
vise some means of lessening the labor
The first expedient that occurred to
them was teaching parrots to pray and
then claiming the credit of the prayers
thus said by proxy This answered the
purpose very well at first but teaching
parrots was troublesome and besides
that the parrots in spite of all precau
tions would occasionally pick up
scraps of profane learning which they
intermingled with their devotions in a
manner not at all edifying So the
Buddhists finally abandoned the in
struction of parrots and calling in the
aid of applied science invented the
prayer wheel Nobody it seems to me
but the laziest of Asiatics would ever
have thought of introducing labor-saving
machinery into the realm of the
spiritual but the Buddhists not only
thought of it but put the idea promptly
into execution The prayer wheel used
by the Kalmuck Tartars on the Lower
Volga is a small wooden cylinder six
or eight inches in length and about two
inches in diameter turning upon a ver
tical axis the lower end of which is ex
tended and thickened to form a han
dle This cylinder is stuffed full of
short written prayers and every time
it is turned upon its axis all the prayers
that it contains are regarded as duly
said Could anything be more simple
or satisfactory There is no shutting
of the ejcs no getting down on the
kuees in uncomfortable positions no
facing in any particular direction All
that the prayer has to do is to give his
wheel a twirl and it grinds out prayers
with a rapidity and fluency Avhich
leaves nothing to be desired But from
an Occidental point of view the whole
performance is of course an absurdi
ty I could feel some respect for the
prajers of the Mohammedans and of
the fire worshipers but the wooden
wheels of the Kalmuck Tartars excited
only contemptuous amusement Inde

Shakspeare in London
Now Shakspeares London says Dr
Fiske in the Atlantic was a small city
of from 150000 to 200000 souls or about
the size of Providence or Minneapolis
at the present time In cities of such
size everybody of the slightest emi
nence is known all over town and such
persons are sure to be more or less ac
quainted with one another It is a very
rare exception when it is not so Be
fore his thirtieth year Shakspeare was
well known in London as an actor a
writer of plays and the manager of a
prominent theater In that year Spen
ser in his Colin Clouts Come Home
Again alluding to Shakspeare under
the name of Action or eagle like
paid him this compliment
And there though last not least is
Action
A gentler shepherd may nowhere be
found
Whose name full of high thoughts
tion
Doth like himself heroically sound
Four years after tins in 1598 Fran
cis Meres published his look entitled
Palladis Tamia a very interesting
contribution to literary history The
author who had been an instructor in
rhetoric in the University of Oxford
was then living In London near the
Globe Theater In this book Meres
tells nis readers that the sweet witty
soul of Ovid lives in mellifluous and
honey tongued Shakspeare witness his
Venus and Adonis his Luerece his su
gared sonnets among his private
friends etc
To suppose that such a man as this
in a town the size of Minneapolis con
nected with a principal theater writer
of the most popular plays of the day
a poet whom men were already coup
ling with Homer and Pindar to sup
pose that such a man was not known
to all the educated people In the town
is simply absurd There were proba 1
bly very few men women or children
in London betwen 1595 and 1610 who
did not know who Shakspeare was
when he passed them in the street
and as for such wits as drank ale and
sack at the Mermaid as for Rallegh
and Bacon and Selden and the rest to
suppose that Shakspeare did not know
them well nay to suppose that he waa
not the leading spirit and brightest wit
of those ambrosial nights is about as
sensible as to suppose that he never
saw a maypole
