Seven wee b: Were singing

be* Singing and swinging, flitting and flutter­

ing, Chat t ing and spatting, twi t ter ing, sputter­

ing, All in the best of good-nature of course, Till it seemed as though each little throa t

would get hoarse. Now, when the gay frolic was about at

its height, Three s t rangers appeared and prepared to

al ight; Three demure little s t rangers wi th sorrow­

ful faces, Who sighed as they But in the pleastmtest

places. " I am jrrieved," said the oldest, with a sort

of a wuil Of distress and a sad little shake of his

tail— " I am grieved to hear singing, see gladness

and mirth, When there 's sorrow and trouble all over

the ea r th ; Where through the wide world there is

hardly a nation Where some aro not dying of th i rs t or

s tarvat ion." These words on the seven produced quite a

shock, When up spoke the tiniest bird in the flock; "If people are suffering and t imes are so

bad, We should t ry to make every one cheerful

and glad, Sing more and sin*? louder it appears to me. So together! chirrup, chirrup, chi r -oe-e!" All joined with a will, and their gladsome

singing Sets wood . and hills and valleys a-ringing, Till the found reached a lonely old woman

in bed; •'After all, life is still worth the living,"

she said, '•While tjho sun is so bright and the birds

arc so {jay," And their glad music cheered her for many

a day. When the cnorus began, the new comers

departed, And they seemed, as before, very sad and

down-hearted; But, s t range to relate, as they flew out of

sight, The three were a-singing with all of their

might. —Christian Union.

A FAMILY AFFAIE. BY UUGII CONWAY.

You have follow-

left my humble1

C H A P T E R X X X I I . VVHSUF.V.

For hours and hours Mrs. Mil 'er re­mained blissfully ignorant of the fact that the wheels which were bearing her to her destination bore also sorrow and ruin in the person of Maurice Hervey.

But sometime after the train had left the Par is and Lyons station ha rah opened the door of her comfortable compar tment and in the narrow gangway of the train came full upon Maurice Hervey. He was smoking and watching the flying landscape through the glass windows at the side of the narrow passage. He turned, looked at .Sarah, and laughed in cruel merr iment as he saw her ga e of horri ied surprise

" ou l " she gasped. ' ed me. "

'• ver. step sinoe you ab"de, my dear S a r a h . "

Si e turned and r e e n t e r e d the compartment she had left. Hervey fallowed her, and with a laugh t i r e w himself down on the seat nearest the door. The train was not full, an I the comj ar tments were small ones, so it hap­pened that the two people were alone.

" h. yes, Sarah, ' ' he said .eer ingly; "I followed you, and I shall never leave your si ie until you Wad me to my belo ed wife. I t 's no go id thinking you can give me the-slip. To ;ave trouble I may tell you I know you are going to Munich. What a clever woman you are, Sarah. 1 am so much obliged to you ,"

She wrung her hands convulsively. then covered her face and moaned. She had acted, a; she thought, for the best, but this man's craft had overcome her. Her mistress was to be made to sai ler and through her. Through the O n e who would willingly sacrifice body and soul to save her from p a n !

"Don ' t be sulky, !-arah," said Hervey. "The game 's up now, you may as well give in. Here, make yourself us:>fnl and fill my pipe. 1 can' t use this confounded right arm of m i n e . "

J*he took no notice of his request, but presently she raised her head and looked at him.

"Be warned, ' she said, in low tones. ' O n c e more, 1 say, be warned in time. Leave this train at the n e \ t station. Fly while you can ."

He laughed scornfully, "Now is it l ike ly?" he said.

She made no further appeal, she sunk hack Into stony silence, and from that time no remark, no question, no t a u n t of the man 's coul l draw a word from her thin lips. Hour a ' te r hour wont by and Sarah Miller sat in her corner motionless and silent as a statue.

No food had passed her lips since she left London. All do ire to eat had left her when she r.ist caught sight of Her­vey's hateful form. Her hands were hot; her veins :eemed full of fever, and now and again n mist seemed to close round her, from which she emerged only to see once more the cruel face of her tormentor. SOjthe hours went by.

Hervey had food sent into tho carriage. H e also cons led himself at short inter­vals with brandy and water. He bought cigars, smoked them, and grumbled at their badneAn :rometlines lie rose, walked cut* into t # R » n g w a y and stretched his

A withdrew. Tho travelers tore alone, in less than five

tjould be at an end. iof inspiration flooded

the poor woman ' s harassed brain. An Inspiration which made all th ings clear as day. A s t range brilliancy shone in t er eyes, i n a flash she saw. or believed she saw, to wha t end these th ings were lead­ing. God's hand was at wo k.

Once or twice she turned and looked a t her companion, aud by the same strange fancy vtblch had before sel ed her, per­suaded herself tha t the something which she imagined she saw in his face and which betokene I app: caching death, grew more and more d i s t inc t S h j felt no pity for the man nor would she have dared to a t tempt a s e o n d warning; but she gazed on him with a kind of awe. raised by the thought tha t in a b ief space of l ime this wretched creature would be lying in the place appointed for him, lying there, and to lie there, fore er and ever and ever!

Suddenly ahe turned and knel t <n the floor of the carriage. She ofered up a prayer that things might be made clear to her ; tha t her agon of suspenso might be brought to an end. Hervey watched her and laughe 1 aloud.

'Mui te right, S a r a h , " he said. "Never neglect your lellgious observances. 1 am afraid you can t pray yourself ont of this situation: but there ' s no harm in t r y i n g . "

The soun I of his voice gave another and a fresh turn to her thoughts . At tha t moment her prayer was answered and every h ng grew clear. The clouds which troubled her rolled away, or, t may be, closed round her to break no more.

She s imered , and still kneel ing turned her face to the speaker. Her look for a moment start le I him in spite of the con-temp, he felt for her religious vagaries. And well i t n Ight s 'urtle him.

Li t t le did Maurice Hervey, as from tho efl'ec s of fatigue, cig rs an i b a n d y , he sat h d f d o i n g in the corner o f t e com­partment , dream what thoughts were passing through the mind of the woman near him. To him she was nothing m re than an addle-headed sor of creature, who once upon a time had done a great d e l toward bringing him to ru in ; an act which he rightly believed lie was now paying her in full.

How was she to do it.' The time was passing, and >et the path was not yet pointed out. See. the man ' s eyes were close 1! Had the moment come.' If she had a knife she m g h even no v drive it into his h e a r t But she had no knife; had nothing which would s e r e her need, or ra ther Cod's need. Suddenly she re­membered, as one remembers a dream, that hours and hours ago she had seen a fellow passenger opening a hag, and had noticed on the top of that bag a pistol. Had she been allowed to catch sight of the weapon for the purpose which she was depntied to carry out.' If so. where was the pistol, and how could she get it into,her bunds? She rose, and without any ; settled o b e c t passed Hervey and stepped out into the gangway.

Her movement awoke him. He put his head through the door and watched her as a cat watches a mouse. Sarah went the length <.f the long carriage, but found nothing to guide her to the end. Every door was hermetically sealed, it seemed as if she and her companion were the only persons awake. The only sound heard was the ceas less rush of the train as It tore Its wav on and on through the night.

The womau returned and resumed her seat. The means had not yet been given her. A phantom of common sense also riitted through her mind. If sho killed this man in su h a manner, it meant ar­rest aud trial of herself. I; mean shame and exp . su re to her loved mistress. No, she must wait yet a while. <iod had nol yet spoken h s last word; nor yet shown the exact w a y in which His -work wus tc be done. Yet her belief never swerved, neve uavere .

She clinched her hands convulsively, digging the nails of one into the i.esh of the other. >he glanced once more at Hervey's face which, from his fatigue, looked pale and wan. She rose and me­chanically, like one in a dream, stepped out o: the compartment into the dimly lighted gangway. I l e r -ey followed her.

Without knowing why or wherefore, she walked the whi.li> length of the car­riage. In a dazed w y she opened the doo. at the e::d and stepped out into the open air. Hervey followed her. and the door closed behind them, and the man and the woman stool alone on the iron platform which lies between one carriage and its forerunner.

The train had not yet slackened its speed. Its wild ru-h still whipped the natural ly calm air into a tierce gale. The woman's dark hair, which had come un­twisted, streamed behind her In elf locks. A tall black figure, with a white, a death-white faccand burning ey, s, s taring fix­edly at the destination to which the train was hurry ing her, as tixedly as her mind was turned to the work which she yet be­lieved she was doomed to execute.

Tho night was cloudy and moonless. Some way ahead, a little to the right, the lights of th'.> great city lit up the dark sky. I t was on these lights tha t Sarah Miller's eyes were fixed; her lips th > while mut ter ing inaudiblo words.

For a few moments Hervey stood in silence by her side. Then he spoke. " I t ' s no good Sarah, you can ' t give me the slip. I'll follow you everywhere, l i e a sensible woman for once, and don' t give me more bo the r . "

She s^oke, but not in answer to his words. " T h a t glare! that red g l a re ! " she cried in a thri l l ing vojee. "Look at it! Look at it well! Do you know what it means to you and to me? ' ' .

Before he could reply she answered her own (itieston. " t is the red glare of h e l l , " she cried in still wilder accents. " T o e glare of the fire which burns for you and for me. The shriek! Hear the shriek of the damned!"

Once more the whist le sent its piercing scream of warning far on the night air; and in another moment the strong brakes would have fallen on tho great wheel-. Hervey, really startled by his com­panion ' s wild bearing, tu rned to her savagely.

"Here , no nonsense!" he said roughly. These were the last words he spoke.

Suddenly, and without the sl ightest warn­ing, the woman threw herself upon him. Her arms clasped him with tho strength of frenzy. Her weight t h . e w him off his balance. He staggered backward, lie made one wild grab with his uninjured arm a t the iron rail missed it, and most likely could not have held it had he

canght it, then slipped down f t * four iro l s teps, and, wi th t h a wesyifVf a i m s still holding him, the two M l v U f c a tearful t hn 1 on to the six His cry, if he had t ime to raise lost in the rush of t h e t rain ami t h e shr iek of the steam whist le. All Was over in a second—the t ra in was speetlftaf on, leaving behind it a dark mass lylfeg between the up and down lines. At tie* very last moment the way had 1 een made) clear to Sarah Miller. Even as she fell with her victim her one thought was of f r e n l e d joy tha t she had found the means to do God's work.

For a minute or two after the last car­r iage of the train had swept by, that black mass 1 iy motionless in the six foot way. T h e n pa r t of it began to show signs of life. Slowly and painfully the woman detached herself from her victim. She rose to her knees and remained there s ta r ing fixedly a" the white face tha i look­ed u p to her own. Her frenzy for the moment had passed, and she scarcely knew what had happened or what she bad done.

She was u n h u r t T h e man had struck the. ground t.rst, and s > borne the brunt of the shock. I l ls head had fallen heavily on the ballast line, an I he lay without sense or motion. Was he dead?

H e breathed! She felt the faint breath on her cheek! She laid her hand on his hear t and fei its pulsations, slowly dis­tinct. She sprung to her feet with a wild cry of distress. She had failed! Hervey was alive and wo ild recover. The work had not been done! She jeered wildly into the darkness. She scarcely knew for wha t she looked. A large stone, a piece of iron, anyth ing which would show that the hand which had guided her so far on the tearful r ad of fate had not deserted her; but sho found nothing, absolutely nothing which could serve her need.

li . i t suddenly away along the down line she saw a round red light creeping appar­ently nearer and nearer. Her heart leaped at the s i g h t To the ut termost bitterest end the way was clear. The final word had gone forth, the linal revelation was made to her.

.She placed 1 er hands under the man ' s .boulders, and by an effort of s t rength, desperate and far beyond what might be exp cted from her frame, dragged him over the lew feet of roadway which lay between him and the metals . He groaned once or twice, but remained senseless and motionless as she placed him right, in the tracK of the coming train.

T h e red light was close—close at hand, bi'3 the man lay still and recked nothing of is. The woman having accomplished her ghas t ' e work, wound her black shawl t ightly round her head, then fell upon her knees, waited and lised an age in every moment.

She heard, through the mu Ting, the rush, she felt on her hands the wind of the metal monster as it swept by; but she heard or felt no more. She rose and shuddered convulsively; then, without a glance to see what her hand had wrought, stepped over the line, down the steep em­bankment , and was lost in the night. She had done what she beloved to !>• her appo 'nted task. No longer would Mau­rice Hervey stand between 'lleatriee and happiness!

The poor wretch was almost cut in two. The body was picked up, placed iu a truck, taken to the Munich station, and thence to the place ap] ointed f r the reception of the bodies of unknown men who met with a sudden or a violent death.

If by any chance Ueatrice, who certain­ly had trouble enough to make her wake­ful, had risen wi h the dawn of the morn­ing wlvch followed the tragedy, and look­out of her casement she wo hi h a \ e s e e n a sight which would have caused her much surprise.

She would have seen Sarah Miller, whom she believed to be in i ng l and , s tanding on the opposite side of the street: utter des­pair and anguish wri t ten in every linea­ment ; ga . ing at her m i s r e s s ' s window like one bidding the ob ect the clearest on ear th an eternal farewell-—eternal because even the consoling hope of meeting In some future state is absent. Hu . Beatrice who, in the earlier watches of the night, had been a ^ ake for hours w ith her sorrow, slept on unt ' l the sun u as high. Perhaps it was well tor her she did so.

The poor self-ap. ointed ins t rument for working the Divine Will, had, after she left the scene of her dark w ork, \ andered about the outskir ts of M u n i c \ aimlessly and hopelessly. Had it been bread day­light, and had there been persons to see her, an occasional s itied moan and a wr inging of the hands would have been all tha t showed the agony of mind she en­dured, h i it was not, as might be sup­posed, the agony >.f remorse. It \\;,s agony at the thought of the further saera-fice which such sense as still was hers told her she must make in order that the de­sired and predestined end might foilow the act of the night.

So when at last the morning broke gray. and trees and «ther objects loomed phan­tom like through the mist, Sarah Miller planned and schemed, seeking the way to insure what she ha,I so dearly bought. All her thoughts reached one end. She must i y far. far from the spo t Beatrice must never hear of her a^ain: never know that she left London. If h e r proximity to the dead man became known the iruth might be guessed and all be lost.

Yet before she went she must sec the house In which her darl ing l i \ed. She mus t stoop and kiss the door step on which those loved feet had trodden. Sho must wall her one passionate and unheeded farewell, then leave t h e place and be as one dead.

She struggled against the desire but it overcame her. U ith tho firs: s treaks of dayl ight she entered the sleeping city, and ut ter ly worn out stoo I before her mistress's window, and for a while watched it as one watches the last falling ray of a sun, \\ hlch has set never m a i n to rise and l ighten the darkness which shall be eternal.

At that early hoar of the morning the s t reet was silent and deserted. There was no one to notice the strange-looking crea­tu re who stool, and, with" wlFd despair in her eyes, forever ga-ed on one spo t Her look for the time was such that no one, not even the one most preoccupied wi th his own affairs, could have passed her wi thout feeling his cariosity raised as to why she was l ingering tfcate, and wha t Save her tha t appearaaea a t dire distress.

A s trange sound, a fierce rushing sound, was ever In her ears; great wheels seemed tu rn ing and turning in her head; and if for a moment she dared to close her hot and weary eyes, she saw through theda rk -nes> a light, a fierce light, red like Hood, and drawing nearer and nearer.

Hut in spite 0 all th is she was able to take her seat in the train able to exult that she had found the s t rength to bear her so far: ab e to pi ay that her s trength might last unti l she once more stood In London. Then .all would be sate. No ma ter what became of her then. The work was finished, what did the future of the tool matter. '

The train left Munich, and as it steam­ed out of the magnificent station, the woman veiled her face with her black shawl.

Save for such in uh \e* as the exigen­cies of the ourney torced her to make, and such speech as was nece-sary to procure th • iood and dr ink which nature absolutely demanded, the woman spoke no word on that Inn : ourne back. Ex­cept tha t 'n w and again she pres-ed hem to her brow in a vain endeavor to stop the wheels which whirled In her brain, her thin hands were forever clasped beneath her dark shawl. She sat and stareM into vacancy. How could she clo-e I er eyes when doing >o at once brought the red light bef re them.'

The long ^ourney by land, the sh irter Joun-ey by sea. passed l ice a protracted yet incoherent dream. All she knew or cared to know \va> tlr.it she was .speeding on to London. At hist the sound of Eng­lish voices, the sight of i n lish faces, told her that she had reached the last stage . f her o u n e y . Tin n she aroused herself and made her final prej aratlons,

King Alpnonso X, surnamed " the wise, ' ' who succeeded to the throne of Leonard Castile m fj.vj. < n learning tlr . t his pages neglected to ask the i ivine blessing before p a r a k i n g of their daily meals, he was deeply grieved and sought diligently to find the best and most impres-d e way to p.'int out to them the e r i l o f this omt -sion.

At length succeeding in finding a plan, lie invited the pages of his court to dine with him.

A bontiful repast was spread and when they were all assembled around the table the king gave a signal that all was in r. adiness f r them to beg n. They all en­joyed the rich feast, but not one r. n u m ­bered to ask Col ' s blessing on lies food. Wha t transpired at this memo:able meal:' Unexpectedly there entered a ; oor, ragged beggar, who unceremoniously seated him­self at the royal t ible . and a t e and drank undis turbed to Ids heart '* content. Sur­prise and astonishment were depicted on every countenance. The pages lcoked t'rst at the king, then ga/ed upon the audacious intruder, expecting momentar­ily that his majesty would give orders to h a \ e him removed from the table. Al-phouso. however, kept silence while tho beg_Tar. unabashed by the presence of royalty, ate all he desired.

When his hunger and thirst were ap­peased he rose, and without a word of t hanks departed rom the palace.

'What a despicably mean fe low!" cried the boys. Calmly :he good king rose, ami with much ea nestness, said, "Hoys. l>ol(!er and more audacious than this beggar have you all been. Every day you sit down to a table supplied by the bounty of your liea enly Father, yet you ask^^rtot his blessing, and leave it w i t h o u r e vpressing to h im your grati tude.

To the Editor of the DISPATCH.

Dear Sir: It is a lamentable admission lor a

"Livingston County Farmer'1 to make, that this great republic fails to pro-dace wool enough to clothe its popula­tion and is compelled to purchase in that great distributing market of Lon­don one-half of what our manu­facturers need. Now there must be a cause tor this sad state of things either the climate, the enterprise or the lack of knowledge or something else must operate against' us as a sheep raising country. A quarter of a century we contended in the "Western Rural" that the 6heep husbandry of the U. S. was in its infancy, we are sorry to say we are stilt in our pupilage. The idea of one of your correspondents to give a bonus to stimulate the sugar industry isimost excellent, suppose we serve our farmers in the same way thia coupled with the advdlorem d t l y . w t advocate MreljifcOUght to satisfiuikeM farmers

Read and Consider the Following.

Mrs. Liycrmore Tells Why She Betame a Prohibitionist.

Another great Sunday Audience lis­tened to Mrs. Mary A, Livermoie, n, Checkering hall , Sunday afternoon. Every seat was filled and^many stood during the entire service. After the usual exercises of prayer and song, the distinguished lady was introduced, and told the vast audience why she had be­come a Prohibitionist:

"I ne?er forget to love what I hav< once loved, and I lett the Republic:r, party as I left kindred and frien-.-when I separated from the church intn which I was baptised, and joined ;u> other communion, because I could'i't accept its doctrines. I had friends w ho Lold me that the reform I wanted would come in time and advised me not to hurry, but to 'hold on.' 1 have great capacity for holding on, and I held on with nails and eyelids, hoping lor better things that never came. They tell us that we ot the Prohibition party are trying to break up the Re­publican party. It is not so, we are trying to break up tae saloon. But if anybody or anything insists in getting betwpen the saloon and the blows we are dealing it, who is to blame?"

Congressman Roger Q. Mills, author of the Mills bill, is in trouble. He says:

"Those Democrats who have forsaken everything for the single idea of Pro­hibition would vote for the devil in preference to me, but I can stand it.1'

Mr. Mills may stand it, but disinter­ested spectators of the fight the Prohi­bitionists are making in hia district are ilonbtful abo'it that. Two things are evident however. One is that they don't seem to appreciate downf in Teias, Mr. Mill's State, that the Prohibition party is, as we are tcld, a "J^wocratic annex," The other is that <kbtia4he.

And yet how manv men dodge about the question as if it would blast the i r whole lives to meet with a refusal. It is a pity, in this connection, that the old custom of kneeling to make an offer ever died out. Tho attitude has its inconveniences, undoubtedly. It is not suited to our modern d res s and results in abominable kneeing of one's j trousers. And it is a most uncomfor­table position m which to be surprised by an inopportune stranger. But it was definite —there was no feeling one's way about it. Tho lady couldn' t doubt your meaning, once you were literally at her feet.

Another rule, as one especially to be j considered, is:

Avoid digressions. Nothing is more deplorable than an

interval in a proposal. The matter should be gone through with speedily, once your attack ueg us. It 1 s an at­tack, alwava No mat ter how ready-hearted Angela may bo, there is -a little perfunctory hesitancv, only nat­ural to her modesty; and you must not j g.vo her the opportunity to turn the current of her wooing.,.,-Do not stop j to tell her that you only t:iko three! glasses of claret with your dinner, or that yoii don' t owe a penny in the] world. Information of this sort you should convey to her long before you j ask the momentous question; it is rele­vant, no doubt, and may abet your cfl'ort greatly, bu t , \ e t it is prosaic and ' out of keeping just at the moment ol crisis. The more nakedly you conline ; yourself to declaring your love and i asking her hand, I he better. - lUar iu mind alwa i s that a proposal partakes of the nature of an onslaught; that no ; matter how apt and willing your lady [ love may be, she has still a maidenly sense of preservation, and you must •afiord her no oppoatunity of avoidance, but bind her most strenuously to the issue. Give her but the slightest pre-1 text for branching oft* upon a side issue of controversy, and you will never pin; her to tho point j

The last rulo with which 1 propose at present to burden tho d lliuilt cour­tier is at any rato not less important :

than the others: Eschew elaborations. Under the head of elaborations I in.

elude exaggerations, affectations and false pretenses of all tor ts , object ing to them not upon the ground of tho'i vit atiug d shonestv, for 1 entertain a certain regard for tho immoral maxim j that all is fair in love and war, but upon the score of inexpediency*

At all times a woman's perception ol deceit is keener than a man's , and it is peculiarly so when the matter under consideration concerns her affections. It is the charity, not tho blindness, of women which makes them tolerant ol a want of charLy in men they love. You can not coz'.n Angela, and it is distinctly indtscro it to make tho at­tempt. Do not try to make her believe that you are a better fellow than you are. If sho gives her your heart it is because you are the noblest of men. If wo were loved for our deserts only we should all die lorn bachelors; it is in spite of your defects that she loves you, and it would do you no good to trick her if yon could. Tell her hon­estly that you are but an indifferent, honest fellow, not more than passably clever, not too well furnished in world­ly gear—say this by way of preface, leaving her no opportunity for other interruption than :\ formal protest at your solf-deprociation—and then—then at her, my merry man; tell her how you lovo her, and have no fear of pitching your song too high on this point—swear that you love the street she lives upon, and if you do not you aro no true lover.— Washington Irving liishopt in San Francisco Examiner.
