but neither saw.
"It is not quite what we expected OF
life, is it, a1nty2" said May. "But God
and heaven and hope and love remain
just the same, only the present is hard,
and hides the truth from us at times.
You must not believe" she went on,
"that Hal and are less dear to each
other than of old; but when he comes in,
full of his politics, and angry at this
man, and eager about that one, and finds
a cross, faded wife, who somehow seems
to blame him, I dare say, though she
never means it, and when the children
trouble him with their noise, and don't
look as neat as they used; and I feel all

worse than pain, or give one dreadful
shrek and 60 mad, and get rid of it all;
and I have to fight it down, and go on

see, dear, we cannot exactly be as we
were five years ago9 And yet if were
to die, don't you suppose know how
Hal would feel, not counting the need of
me for the children or the work, but just
the loss of me and my love? And if
Hal should be brought home from one of
those political meetings to speak noword

word to me ever again May rose and
clasped her hands" aunty, it would be
worse, a thousand times worse, than it
would have been five years ago, when I
was his itty bitty pa'idge." And May
sobbed wildly.
A deeper sob, like an echo, startled
them, and they saw Harry, who, with
his head on his arm, had sunk into o
chair by the door.
"My May my poor little love" he
cried, as he took her in his arms and
looked into her eyes, ~ came home to-
night very angry and obnoxious fellow.
I have lost the election, and, what is
worse, Martin has gained it. But now I
am glad, and not sorry, for am going to
spend my time and streng tn in serving
my May instead of my conntry."
And Harry was as good as his word.
Six-eighths Of the time he had given to
political excitement he restored to his
business, and the mortgage was cleared
from the homestead in short time. The
hours at home were hours of mutual
help and harmony; for strong. deter
mination will carry all before it, like the
turn of the tide.

the maid-of-all-work was putting the
kitchen to rights after tea, did May en-
JOY.
Many an evening, when the children
were asleep, her husband sat beside her,
her sensitive clinging spirit resting in his
loving presence, and her strained nerves
relaxing from their long fatigue.
"Hany," said Aunt Dodo, during q

come to the conclusion, az M abso.
Lutte certainty, that "from republican
point of view, it is ineXpedient as
well rs unjust to assume an attitude
which may drive the president into
the arms of Southern democrats, and
so afford them the very opportunity
they desire for influencing his policy
on questions still unsettled.p The re-
publican organ perceives that Mr.,
Hayes has given himself up to the
democratic southern policy and the
democratic civil service policy, and
fears that he is about TO surrender to
the democratic financial policy. Thus
he has not far to go to land in 1.-THE
arms OF southern democrats and a
vigorous republican opposition may
push him entirely over.
