A STRANGE HIsToRy On last Sunday
an old gentleman entered the cars at Sa-
bula of the train coming north, and in
conversation with fellow passenger
con61ed to him an interesting portion Of
his history, which is as follows: Some
time previous to the late war be pur-
chased farm near Green Island paying
half the purchase money down, and mar
rled widow. who was also his second
wife. When the war began he entered
the army and in one of the holly
ed battles lost leg, for which. upon re-
turning home, he substituted cork limb.
His last union was blessed with several
children, and all went along smoothly
until the year 1866, when he and his
wife began discussing the virtues Of their
former spouses, which produced serious
quarrel ending by the wife driving him
from home like Grip Van Wrinkle"
he kissed his children and departed with
out one word of complaint or reproof.
From his own threshold he wandered
over almost every portion of the world,
and for eight years his family never re-
ceiyed either letter or message from him
] On Saturday, when he took the cars at
Sabula, he was within few miles of his
old home, from which he, too had never
heard word since the day he left. On
the train he met an old acquaintance,
who informed him that his wife, suppos-
ing he had died, had married again. and
had two children by her last union; that
she was living on the same old farm,
and, rs Enoch Arden was told of Apnie.
was happy" The old man replied
that he was not greyed at that, but that
he returned to see his children, of whom
he spoke very additionally.
The third station the train stopped and
a young lady entered, who, upon per-
ceiving the old gentleman, examined him
very closely, after which she asked his
name. He told her, and cxclaiming.
Then you are my father" she threw
herself into the old mans arms. Both
shed tears of joy at the reunion, and our
informant describes the scene as very af-
fecting. The old gentleman has accu-
INFLATED quite neat sum Of money in
his wanderings which he saysh be intends
himself aud children to enjoy, and that
he will leave his wife and her new hus-
band to themselves on the old farm add
ing that he will be happy in company
with his daughter, who is married, ard
that he feels no desire to interfere with
the happiness Of his wife. Dubuque

Making Up with Her.

We fellows have all been there aud we
can remember all about it. We loved
her guess we did ! and we knew that
she loved in return. But one day she
gave Sam Tomkins smile, or she let
Tom Watkins walk home with her under
an umbrella or she did some other simple
thing and we got huffy. We loved her
all the time, but sat down and wrote her
letter, dating it at midnight, saying
that we wanted all those letters and that
ring and that photograph back. We
hoped she wouldn't return em, but we
felt a malicious pleasure in furnishing
her. The letter was sent, or handed to
her personally, and we met her with u
cold good morning." as she came to
school, but bestowed our best smile on
Lavina Wedge, the hoinliest girl in the
town.
Our heart ached when we looked across
the desks and saw her slyly reading the
letter and trying to keep back the tears
but we went over to the third girl behind
to borrow a geography, and to the second
girl in front to borrow a grammar, and
we were entirely unconscious of the pres
cnce of the girl we loved. We stood be-
side her in the class as straightas a pole,
never letting on that we saw her and the
mutual agreement that if one missed the
other should do the same, in order to
keep together, was broken. We tried to
feel maliciously glad when We went to
the head and left her near the foot, but
we couldn't do it.
1t went on this way for three or four
days. Once in while we caught her
looking at us with a sad sweet smile, as
if she were some poor orphan with no
friend in the world; and her note said
that she couldntpart with the letters and
the keepsakes. We held out bravely
until it begun to hurt US the most, and
then we got ready to o'make up" 1t
couldn't be done suddenly that would be
acknowledging our wrong. We waited
until noon-time, then as she cat her din
ner in her seat we began looking for
lost book We thought it was under the
seat next to hers, and while we were
looking for it she spoke. We heard,
but pretended not to, and she spoke
again. Then we coldly replied but sat
down near by and asked her if ''she had
those letters with her" She said no, and
we moved nearer. She said it wasn't
her fault, and we said it wasn't ours, and
somehow our fingers touched.
No one knew what burden Of ankle
ty was rolled away in five minutes and
how much clearer the afternoon sun
shone for it. She seemed dearer than
ever before, and when the brown eyes
cleared the tears away and the merry
dimples came back, we wondered how
we could have been such an unfceling
wretch, and yet it was the same thing |
over in less than six weeks.

smooth path and married without hay
