CIIAPTFR TIT.

The six years that followed tho
death Of his wife and the loss of
his child, passed wcnrily to James
Durant. lfo visited nearly cvory
country in the Old World, seeking
among scenes Of beauty md gran
deur as well as historic interest for
the mental rest that could never be
found. Once moro he turned his
steps towards America and sought
his Masonic friend, Mr. Wads-
worth. Finding that gentleman
about setting out with his family
on a journey to tho Atlantic coast,
MIR. Durant accepted tho invitation
to accompany them to Saratoga, and
Niagara, then to Now York, whore,
leaving tho ladies, Mr.. Wadsworth
and Mr.. Durant wandered from
town to town along The coast, en-
joying the beauty of the scenery
and tho quiet hospitality that greet
od them, moro than the crowded
hotels and tho fashionable styles of
tho popular watering places. Fancy
and the kind hand of Providence
at length lod them to tho little town
of B, and the second evening
aftor their arrival they visited the
Masonic Lodge. A warm welcome
WAS extended to these Brethren
from such distant homes, and both
were invited to address the Lodge.

"Here, wife, is q child that has

"Poor child" said Mrs. Turner,
81 do not wonder sho is nearly

"You had better examine hel

Mrs. Turner lifted tho gossamcl

over. Tho square and compass
placed by Mr.. Durant flashed upon
the eyes of all at once. The DIR
and Mrs. Turner looked at eacl

Turner did not notice the tear that
ghstoncd in her husbands eyes.
The doctor fears that Eva woulC
not recover rapidly, proved to be
well founded; days and weeks ot
fevor succeeded the awakening tc
life, during which she talked incoho
rently of papa" and "poor dea6

TIE HAND.-Profound study has
led NJ. dArpcntigny to tho conclu-
sion that the hands represent thrco
types. Those whose fingers have
pointed tips arc possessed Of q rap
id insight into things; aro extra
sensitive and pious, impulsive. TO
this class belong the poets and ar-
lists. no the "sqnaro tops" belong
scientific people; sensible, sclf.con-
tanned characters, professional mon.
The spade shaped tops-thick tips,
with little pads Of flesh on each side
the nails-arc matcrialists, CONNER
cial, practical, with q high apprc-
citation of all that tends to bodily
ease and comfort. Each finger, no
matter what tho kind of hand, has
also one joint--that which is near,
est the palm-rcprescnting the
body; another tho middle, the mind
aad the top, the soul. Each OF
these divisions corresponds with
one Of the types above given.

SeIeeten Story.
Eva, or the Mason's Daughter,
CHAPTER T.

Faster and faster spread the
flames, and now the ship was en-
veloped in fiery sheet. Men and
women rushed madly over the side
to seek q quicker but less painful
death. The boats, with one exccp-
ton, had been overloaded and cap
sized. There were hasty prayers,
and heart-rending cries of misery
and distress. Death lowered, yul,
ture like, over his victims; some
clung desperately to the vessels
side, some supporting themselves in
the water by articles snatched
hastily from the burning ship, and
with which they had leaped wildly
into the sea. The Captain sang
through his trumpet, "Tako heart,
and sustain yourself as long as pos
sible. A ship is coming to our re-
lief"
James Durant stood upon the al
most deserted deck, with his only
child, but four years of age, folded
closely in his arms. His eyes swept
the horizon in search of the ship to
which the Captain had alluded. He
discovered it at length, but it was
at least four miles off. Before
the ship could arrive, they must be
burned to death; or, if ho sprang as
others did down into the water,
both he and tho child would be
drowned, for he was not q swim
mer.
Tho little arms wero twined
about his neck, tho pale check rest
cd confidingly against his own, but
tho bravo child did not tremble.
go, my God, is there no help 9
cried tho dcspairing father, as the
flames swept nearer, and he felt
that his present position could be
held but little longer.
"Herc, give tho child to me
and L will savo her." and turn
ing quickly Mr. Durant stood face
to face with stranger who holt
a life preservcr in his hand.
"Quick there is no time to b,
lost. The child can have nv lif,
presorvcr, and it will float her oasi
ly. Yonder is another ship;
have been watching it for the las
five minutes. It will reach ,s il
half an hour at the most. There
is that fastened securely? Now
little girl I am going to throw 20,
into the water. You are not afraid9
"No, no, but my papal"
The Newberry herald. [volume] (Newberry, S.C.) 1865-1884, 1874-12-02

The father caught her frantically
in his arms.
My darling, Eva, you may never
see your father again; but do not
fcar--God will guard on, and some
body will find you and caro- for you.
IT you never see pnpa again, re-
member he is in heaven with mann
ma"
"ITas she no relatives 2" asked
the stranger.
"Nonc in this country; L am
from England and am travelling for
her health"
"TaEe that pin from your bosom
and fastcn it to her clothins.'
"Hcavcn help you for the
thought" said the father and in q
moment Tho square and compass
was glistcning in the bosom of the
child and the stranger took her
from her fathers arms, saying: 81
am stronger than you; and she must
be cast beyond tho reach Of these
poor drowned wretches, or hey
will rob her Of her life preserver. "
The white drapery fluttcrcd
through the air, and sank below the
waves; then rising it Hoated lightly
upon the waters.
James turned to the stranger
with fearful eyes:
"NIay God bless and preserve
| you, nohlcst of men. But you and
myself must be LOST.
"No; I an n good swimmer, and
! here is piece Of board with which
you can sustain yourself till relief
arrives
The father cast another glance
at the white spccll floating rapidly
away and with an inward Good pre-
serve her!" sprang into the sea fol,
lowed by the stranger; but tho two
foatod III different directions and
they saw each other DO more.
Two hours later James Durant
awoko, as from tho sleep of death,
and found himself in the cabin Of a
strange ship, with kind and sym
pathizing faces all around him. In
q moment he realized all that had
passed, and said eagerly, though
feeble, "NTy child, my little Eva, III
she safe?''
There was no response, and a
low moan escaped the fathers lips.
"Courage, Sir, said the lady with
fearful eyes, "somo passengers were
saved by another ship"
The fathers countonanoo lighted,
Good grant that she may be saved!
Mr.. Durant recovered his usual
strength in q few hours, and sought
among the saved for the stranger
who had proven himself so true a
Masonic brother, but he was not to
be found.
Gle must be on the other ship,
said MIR. Durant, "and he will care
for Eva"
Both ships wcro at port in Now
York the following day, but al,
though Mr.. Durant found the
stranger who befriendcd him, and
who proved to be a Mr.. Wadsworth
from q Southern city, Eva had been
seen by no one, and was given up
as lost.
