them, than had been hitherto. The proposition was, of course, firmly and Instantly refused. But seeing that the prosecutions of both father and son would socn be unendurable, the sisters one day left their uncle's roof, and be- took themselves to place where they were utterly unknown. For a long time the elder sister sought in vain for employment; ard, at last, to avoid further privations and prosecutions of fered a helpless woman. tle high spir- ited girlwas driven to novel expedi- 'ent--that of donning male apparel"
 Here the, thrilling voice again waver- ed, and light was gradually breaking over my mind. But I kept my eyes resolutely upon the floor until s e gain ed courage and proceeded:
 "The young girl now engaged room for an artists studio, and, to her joy, found that her talents and productions were appreciated. After short time she was enabled to place her sister at a good school, where her health would be sure to receive proper attention.- For a time the young artist labored in cessantly, scarcely leaving her canvass, and giving herself but few hours for recreation. Part of the summer was spent at q pleasant summer place, from which she was recalled by the danger ous illness of her sister, Whoa reliev- ed from anxiety on her account, she returned again to her summer resort, but only to suffer many days of illness caused by over-exertion. During this illness the lady of the house proved herself to be a true christian and a mo- ble, disinterested woman. Day by day she watched by the sick-bed; and to her, and warm hearted girl in the same house, was confided the story of a young. struggling artist. After her recovery the young girl learned that large fortune had been left her by a distant relative. Once more the coun- try place was left behind, and with thankful hearts the two sisters took possession of their ample inheritance. And now, though Helen Meredith earnestly desires MT. Brookfeld's good opinion, and knows he does not appre- ciate a woman who has .once left her proper sphere,' yet she has told him her story, and is ready to hear him l speak for himself" n
 "And I, Helen, having beard your story, and understanding il, wait pa- tiently to hear your answer to my question" l answered, quietly holding out my hand. M
 ! 'sIhen you are satisfied with me P she asked treinblingly.
 Perfectly" I answered, and her hand was lightly laid in mine. l had my answer.

Bay The people of Princeton, Indi

Ba- The people of Princeton, Indi- ana, were regularly sold the other day: A travelling dentist went around and proposed to insert fine sets of false teeth at avery low price and wait six months for his pay. He only demand ed that the parties should pay him down for pulling the old stumps. All the old women with poor teeth, and all the young ones with yellow ones, came to the doctor, had the unsightly grinders. etc., removed, and paid for the job. The next day, the doctor was missing, and has not been heard from since. There is weeping and wailing in Princeton, but, owing to the pecu- liar circumstances of the case, the gnashing of teeth is unavoidably post poned.

A Telling Argument.

A man on trial for murder was successfully defended by his counsel in the following argument:
 Thou shalt not kill" Now, if you hang my client you transgress the command as slick as grease and plump as a goose's egg in loafer's face. Gentlemen, murder is murder, whether committed by twelve jurymen or an humble individual like my client. Gertlemen, do not deny the fact of my client having killed man. No such thing, gentlemen. You may bring the prisoner in guilty, the hang man may do his work, but will that exonerate you2 No such thing. In that case you will be murderers. Who among you is prepared for the brand of Cain to be stamped upon his brow to-day? Who freemen? Who, in this land Of liberty and light? Gentlemen, I will pledge my word not one of you has bowie-knife. No, gentlemen, vour pockets are odiferous with the fumes of cigar cases and tobacco. You can smoke the tobacco of rectitude in the pipe of a clear conscience, but hang my poor client and the scaly alli- gators ofremorse will gallop through the internal principles of your animal viscera, until the spinal vertebrac of | your anatomical construction is turned l into a railroad for the grim and gory goblins of despair. Gentlemen, be- ware of committing murder. Beware, I say, of meddling with the eternal prerogative. Gentlemen, adjure you, by the manumitted ghost of temporal sanctity, to do no murder. l adjure you by the name of woman, the main- spring of the ticking timepiece of Times theoretical transmigrations, to do no murder. I adjure you by the American eagle, that whipped the uni- versal game cock of creation, and is now roosting on. the magnetic tcle- graph of Times illustrious transmigra- ton, to do no murder. And lastly, if you ever expect free dogs not to bark at you, if you ever expect to wear boots made of the free hide of the Rocky Mountain buffalo--and, to sum up all, if you ever expect to be anybody but sneaking. lowflung, rascally-brained small ends of humanity, whittled down into indistinctibility, acquit my client and save your country. The prisoner was acquitted, of course.

Your First Sweetheart.
BY MARY KYLE DALLAS.

] Ou never can 1Ofget her. ono was so very young and innocent and pret- ty. She had sucha way looking at you over her hymn-book in church. She alone, of all the world, did not think you a boy of eighteen, but wondered at your size, and your learning, and your faint foreshsdowing of a sandy mustache, and believed you every inch a man. When at those stupid evening parties, where boys who should have been in the nursery, and girls who should have eaten suppers of bread and milk, and gone to bed hours before, waltzed and fiirted, and made them selves ill over oysters and champagne. you were favored by glance from her eye or whisper from her lip, you as- cended to the seventh heaven imme- diately. When once on certain mem- orable eve she polkaed with the drug gist's clerk, and never looked at you, how miserable you were. It is funny to think of now, but it was not funny then, for you were awfully in earnest.
 Once, at a picnic, she wore white dress, and hadroses twincdin her black hair, and she looked so like a bride that you fairly trembled; sometimes you thought in just such snowy cos tune, with just such blossoms in her hair, she might stand by the alter, and you, most blessed of all mortals, might place a golden ring upon her finger ; and when you were alone with her, for Ia moment, some of your thoughts would form themselves into words, and though she blushed and ran away, and would not let you kiss her, she did not seem angry. And then you were somehow parted for little while, and when you met again she was walking with a gentleman, a large, we'll whis- kered man, of twenty eight or thirty, and had neither word or smile for you. And some well meaning gossip inform I'd you shortly after that she was len gagged" to the tall gentleman with black whiskers, and that ''it was a splendid match It was terrible news to you then, and sent you off to the great city, far from your native place, where, af- ter good deal of youthful grief, and many resolutions to die and haunt her, you recovered your equanimity, and began to make money and to call love stuff and nonsense. i
 You have Il rich wife of your own, now, and grown-up children--aye, even two or three grandchildren tod ding about your hearth; your hair is gray, and you lock your heart up in the fire-proof safe of your counting -house when you go home at night. And you thought that you had forgotten that little episode of your nineteenth year, when you read of her death in the pa pers. You know she was a stout lady, who wore glasses, and had daughters older than she was in that olden time but your heart went back and you saw her smiling and blushing, with her golden hair about her face and yourself boy again, dreaming of wedding robes and rings, and you laid your gray old head upon your office desk and wept for the memory of your first sweet heart,
