The Ea nd Organ.

Hush! hark! Draw your breath lightly,
very lightly! There's music somewhere.-
List! do you hear it? know It's but the mu-
sic Of hand organ; but is there need Of Civ
ING ulteranceto the~words SO scoYH!lly, fair
lady?
Sit here lady Enna-hefo, on this low ot-
toInan by the raised window. Silver hands
hold back the heavy folds Of the satin cir
tajns, but the richly wrought lace oaes arc suf-
f.rcd to fall in light waves to the soft yielding
carpet in which your tiny foot lies nearly
buried. or in every coming Of the breeze 10
sweep in huge willie h:llows around yoar peer
less form.
You ale very beautiful, lady Emma. Feciin-
inc on the low ottoman, robed in soft white
r1uslin, listening to the low. rich tones of the
hand organ, that come swelling in at the low
easement; VERY beautifuI-faircr than any
dream but you mus, }et no one know that in
the beautiful casket is cWshrined heavenly
gem; you must let no one even dream that
you possess a soul
It is a sad tune that comes waihag from
that organ, and the notes steal down into the
heart, and stir the deep waters that have lain
so motiouless-waveess for so long g
time
1t is hard to keep back the fast-comiDg
tears. Press the lips cIose!y-let the snowy
cycids sweep over the deep blue orhs-fDd
the white arms tightly above the heaving
breast-let 10 one know lady Emma, how heart
rcnding are the strains that arise from a hand
organ.
Hark The ruby lips may uncIoso-you
can uufol" the arms-you can raise the blue
veined eyelids; merrier strain strikes lighter
OH the car.
You can smile now lady Enna-you can
converse in you own sweet joyous tones, if you
choose.
Still silent ?-no word, not even a parting
of the ips-not glance Of the dimned eye I!
All, lady Emma peerless in your beauty, as
YOU value the opinion OF the world, never let
it know the music of a hand organ affected
You TO tears. Never nevcr.

Now came the low, Wild wall that precedes
the breaking up of the storm. The air seem
cd filed with yiewless spirita Iaournflllly sing
ing and sigl:ing. never thought her any
thing else than human bsla6. It was that
humanity, ike deaElikeEessbf life that enGear-
ed her to me. 1 wound my arm around her
and drew her close to my heart, and bowed
my head over her, and insthe rildress of the
moment pressed my lips tohers in long,
passionate kiss of intense lose and agony
She gave ii back, murmuring icme name Of
endsarment, wound both arms around my
neck aud laying her head on my shoulder
with her forehead pressed sgainst my check,
fell into a cau sluiaber. The kiss burns on
my lips tins hot!r. BAH century of the
cold Kisses Of the world haze not suiiicod 10

clasp of these unknown kfnls, and the soft
pressure of that forehead knew nat car
ed not, If sh6 were o!d iiaI .a:gll, o. Young

l only knew and fejo;eed With iey untold
that she was human, mortal OF my own Ein,
By tie great Father of our race
1t was night Of Ihoughts and emotions,
and phantasHla that uerer can lie described

ing ocean with tl:at form cIingirg to NE, and
my arms around it, and my lips ever anon
pressed to the passior!ess lips of the heavy
seeEer asked no light. It was an intru-
der on my dorr,ain, and would drive her from
my embrace | was mad.
But rs ! saw the face of my companion
gradually -eroalcd in the dawninG light, rs
my eyes began to make out cna hy one the
features, and at length the terrible truth came
slowly burning into my brain, | mourned
aloud in my agony, God Of heavens she IS
dead = and it was Mary Sinclair But she vas
rot dead. We Ioated all day long or the
sea, and at midnight Of the next ! hailed
ship and they took us of. Every man from
the Foam aud the other vessel was saged
with one exception. The other vessel was tie
Fairy schooner yacht belonging to 4
friend of Miss Sinclair, with whom she and her
brother, ard Tnrtv Of ladies ard gentlemen,
had started, buttLree days previously for a
weeks cruise. need not tell you how ex-
planned that strange thrill as the schooner cross
ed our bow the night before the collision, aud
what felt again at the moment OF the crash,
nor what Interpretation gave to the wild tu-
mutt Of emotions all that long right.

thirty years afterward, and ! sometimes have
the same evidence Of her presence now, that J
used TO have when she lived on the same earth

Minor tIorals for Married seot.fs

The last word is the most dangerous of
internal machines. Husband and wife should
no more fight to get it than they should strug
gle for the possession of lighted bomb
she'll
Keep an Epictetus in your dining room, to
read while waiting for the completion Of wife's
toilet.
Married people should study each others
weak points, as skae ers look ont for weak parts
of the ice, in order to keep off them,
Ladies who marry for love should remcm-
Der that the union of angels with women has
been forbidden since the food.
IS The wife is the sun of the social system
Unless she attracts, there is nothing to keep
heavy bodies, Ike husbands, from lying oil
intQ,shaca.
Wives be Iesiert to the martial cigar. The
smoke always hides the most disagreeable part
of the battle
The wife who would properly discharge her
duties must never have soul above buttons.'
The liberties of England have been won by
mutual concessions. Let the hasband who
would acquire the privilege Of asking friends
TO dinner without notice, remember this VIXEN
his wife hints at a new bonnet. The wifes
want is the husbands opportunity.
Notwithstanding 4 the assertions of rathema-
G.ians;; The marriage ring Is circle which hus-
band. and wife have the problem set them of
making all square.
Don't trust too much to good temper when
you get into an argument. The Indians pro-
ducea FIRE by. the rubbing Of the driest sticks.
Sugar Ts the substance most universally diff
fused through all natural products. Let mar
ried people take a hint from this provision OF

The uabit OF Eaaggeration.

Some peoples tongues are continually e1au-
lating the frog in the old fable and always
straining into an OK. There are those who
never experience a moderate and occasional
degree OF pain. but they speak of it, as split
thug headache, awful spa5m, or dreadful tor
ture. If they meet with slight incision Of
the skin, they have 'cut their finger to the
bone:' a common cold is mentioned seriously
sas q most violent influenza and week or two
Of fever is recorded as q severe and fright!nl
Illness The 'supcrlative' Is thcrcigninr mood
with them; ssuPurb' exquisite 'wonderful,'
Glorious horrible tremendous, delicious
charming beautiful, astonishing and such
extreme adjectiyes, TEEN on their lips as pleu-
tifully rs conjunctiens, and we citen wopder,
while gaugiug the narrow cahber OF brain,
whence the big torrents issues-kow such
large furniture could be found in such a small
house.
Let these people re3ea: = story or circlm-
stance. and you can hardly detect the original
they see everything through magnifyiug
glass and Kaleidoscope blended. Talk Of paint
ing in veritabie co!ors, the foreground ard out
lines often given in mere words, beat the PIE.

declared herself half dead with fatigue every
few minutes and we found that she had died
exactly eleven times at the end off the short
Journey. whenshe swallowed victnals IN a most
vital fashion.
