Somehow their eyes meet just here, with
q strong, mutual regard of each others
faces. No matter what the search pre-
cisely tells each Of them 1t results, as
far as Dalgrish is concerned, in some
words something after this fashion:
Lillian Martel, you and both started
with an idea Of marrying each other for
money. We were the merest blind pup
pets in the hands of rather clever and a
very revengeful woman. To-day we have
both been undeceived. Mrs. Heath's re-
venge is accomplished, l suppose. She
has fooled you; she has fooled me'
Lillian Martel has avertcd her eyes from
his face She just bows for answer.
For my own part" he presently re-
commences, ait seems as if worldly policy
could only dictate one course to each OF

She shrugs her shoulders. "Do you
mean go home to dinner?"

Their eyes have met again. Rufus Dal-
grish thrusts forth his hand for her to take,
and now his voice quivers under the stress
of strong passion.

to take you even if your hundreds year

you take me with the same brilliant pros
pects?'
Her reply is not in words. She throws
herself upon his breast and sobs there for
a good three minutes of time. When she
at length lifts her face to his, he sees that
it is very April of smiles and tears
Don't you think, Rufus, that we deserve
to be called the worst match of the sea

She laughs a good clear, hearty laugh

4 COCKNEY VAIL.

THE great Pacific journey have done,
In many town and tent I've found a lodgment
/ think I've travelled to the setting sun,
And very nearly reached the Day Of Judgment
Like Launcelot. in quest of Holy Grail,
From Western BeeGsheba 10 Yankee Dan,
I've been seeker. yet | sadly fail
10 find the genuine type American.
Where is the object of nv youthful wonder,
Who met me in the pages of sam Slick:
Who opened every sentence with By thunder,
And whitfield always a bit Of stick:
Ihc more the crowd of friends around me thick
ems.
The less my chance 10 meet him seems to be;
Why did he freely show himself to Dickens,
To Dixon, Sala, Trollope-not TO me:
No one accosts me with the words, IFadi stranger.
Greets me as Festite CHss, or shouts Old HoSs!i
No grim X-shooter threatens with danger
If dom QHjcSfy pass Hts 6ltter, boss.
Round friendly boards no cocktail passes
No brandy smash my morning hour be.ats
And pettcoats worn by all the lasscs.
And the pianos don't wear pantalettes.
The ladies' when you offer chicken salad
Don tsay, Tn pretty cr0lc1ed t0r guess:
They don't sing Mrs. Barney Williams ballads
OF "Bobbing Round nor add Stree to yes
!, 100, have sat, like every other fellow,
In many a railway, omnibus, street car;
And said, Iou git, Iaisaa to sit right thar
Gone arc the Yankees of my early reading!
Faded the Yankee land Of eager guests
i meet with cafture, courtesy. good breeding
Art letters, men and women of the best.
on fellow Bntons, all my hopes are undone,
Take counsel of disappointed mani
Don come Out here, but stay at home in London
And seek in books the true American

Farmers are Thinking.

Never before III this country have the
farmers been So intentiy engaged i'll
thinking as now. Heretofore they have
allowed others t. think for them, and
act for them, and make laws foT them.
They are now thinking for themselves.
They find that thinking By .u;ory is not
quite the thing. They know that farm
ing by proay don't pay. They are in a
brown study. They find themselves in
debt They labor As hard as ever. but
sc. less pay. They have always paid
taxes, but never SO heavily as nov.
They see a heavy foreign demand for
their products, but on account of extoT-
t;ouate transportation rates, will reap
lat little advantage therefrom. They
ind that they have 10 control over tie
prices of their own products, while all
other classes fix the price of their labors
or their products. They see they axe
cliGues. Those whom they have chosen
10 represent them in the national affairs
have BETRAYED them, and become the
representatives, Of the capitalists II the
country. While most Of the other classes
have been doing well, they have been
falling behind. Is It any wonder that
farmers are thinking something is
wrong: Is il any wonder they are as
a9ciating together and discussing the
causes Of thcir grievances: IS Il any
wonder that they are turning out iy
