Mrs. Schubert was delighted with
her nephew, and be in return rocog-
nizod lofty character in his Aunt.
The coming night was happy one; a
night Of music. Aunt Helen presided
at the piano, and Uncle Carl ana Junen
accompanied with yiolins. They play
ed several OF Schuberts own compost
uon, and as they passed along through
the graceful melodies, his eyes shown
with strange fire, and his violin be-
came q mere toy, in the mighty grasp
Of him that held it. There was no ces-
sation, till the night was far advanced;
50 intense was their delight that the
hours flew like moments. They stop
ped at last and went to rest; Julien los,
in thought, Mr.. and Mrs. Schubert
commenting on the music and Its per-
Torrance.
The next day was devoted to social
pleasures. The more they became ac-
qpainted, the stronger grew q mutual
feeling of respect and endearment. A
goodly portion Of Aunt Hslen's youth
tai days had been spent IN the study
and practice Of music; and here was Il
mighty link in the chain OF affection
that bound the inmates of the Wood.
Few understand the influence of music,
in welding together hearts that deyel-
ope ii largely Could this spirit cord
be wound round all humanity, binding
them ia one whole, far different would
be their moral and social condition
from what il is oday, What picture
would the harmonious blending of all
the shades of character present A few
days rolled pleasantly by, and Miss
Omstead took her leave She was a
woman Of soul and principle; and her
absence was by no means unfelt by the
warm hearts remaining. Julien espe-
cially, respected her, for her kind care
over his infant years and her strong
friendship toward his il-iaied father.
He was from strange fortune,
knowing & many Of her valuable lind
nesses, which The good woman herself
never would haeo revealed u HIM. Tue
