weeks had nearly elapsed and, al
though they were weeks of torture,
the latter part had been cheered by the
smiles of Lula Weston. From day to
day, as he saw her lovely character
more fully displayed, he loved her
more foDdly. The reply just given was
made in answer to Dr. Hartly's ques-

For the Clarion


Of all the agonIes in life, the most |
poignant and narrowing is the conYic-
ton that We have been deceived where
we placed all the trust Of love. The
moment the anchor snaps the storm
comes on-the stars vanish behind the
cloud
The heart that once fondly loved
may do so again. Notwithstanding the
contrary belief is so strongly urged by
many. Bitter enemies may become
devoted friends. Hope may wave a
sad adieu as she takes her flight to the
eternal shores, yet she will return and
fold her bright pinions to rest again
in our hearts Those we dearly loved
may be shrouded in the chill impene-
trable gloom of the grave; others will
be as fondly cherished. The bright
flowers that charmed us by their beauty
and fragrance may droOp and die IN
spite of our fond care and attention,
but their places will be filed by others
as lovely. Sun, moon and stars may
vanish from our sight as dark and
angry clouds loom up i'll in majestic
grandeur, sending forth deatening
peals from Heavens artillery, yet, ere
long, they will gladden. the earth with
their radiant beams. Old ocean, which
clashes its foaming pillows in bold de
fiance of all earthly power, will again
smile in calm serenity.
These, and numberless other things
NAV return, but there are many which,
! once gone, can never be recalled
! Youth and innocence can never return.
The unkind word, wrongs and injuries,
when once they start on their dark
missions of evil, are gone forever
| Lost confidence, when once desecrated,
can never be fully and entirely restored.
| Oh when our hearts have been blight
ed, crushed and ruined by falsehood
and ans! treacherE, from l a. the 20! one being we
bodiment of all that was noble, pure
and good-when that cherished name
was ever remembered in our petitions
to Heaven, when self was forgotten
| when we feel that there is one in whom
we can trust-then to have the bitter,
blighting conviction unfolded to our
fond, confding hearts, this one has
proved false Oh death, | imagine,
would be far preferable to this living
despair We may forgive and still
love, but can the vase broken and
cemented ever be as safe again
We would give worlds to forget,
but, alas this is not in our power
Our lips cannot again be wreathed in
| trusting smiles of atfection-the same
endearing tone is no more ours-we
struggle to conceal our disappointed
hopes, our broken confidence, until
our hearts bleed at trying to appear
what we are not, Oh how earnestly
we should strive to retain that affec-
ton so devotedly bestowed, and which
in after years we would give much to
recall How little can be employed to
wiring from our hearts such bitter
grief What a mystery the human heart
is, and how little understood How
careful we should be to let no rude
hand touch it's delicate chords, lest
they be shattered beyond the power
of restitution LULA.

About twenty-five years ago he was a

attend court in neighboring county,
but, being without a horse, he could
not go His landlord knowing his
want informed him that if he (Hamil-
