Now [ will tell you mine. You are the
one woman without whom must forever
be lonely. You have been only too
faithful to Barbara, or you would have
seen it before
Rapid, earnest, passionate, grew the
strong mans words as he uttered them,
and he closed with sudden forward
movement. Before the widow knew it.
Dams arms were around her, and even
her tears betrayed her.
It was too late for anything but to let
Dan have his own way. Such willful
fellow he was. too. And when at last
the widow insisted on going homeward,
their arrival at the gate was signalized by
Just such another theft as he had perpe-
trated twenty times already, for Bar
bara's exclamation had been simply,
"Kissed herp'
Never was lamp lit so quickly in all
the world before but, between the find
ing and the scratching Of the match, Bill
Emmons managed to say-for he was a
fellow of excellent mind Perhaps,
Barbara, that may remove some Of our
difficulties"
And Barbara made no reply; but when
Dan and the widow came into the parlor,
it was not easy to say which Of the two
women was blushing the most violently.
"It's all right, Bill" remarked Dan.
ct don't know that any explanations are
required. You have our entire consent.
The visions of the newly painted house
had faded from the mind of Barbara
Hawkins, but it was Dams remark that
called her attention to the manner in
which she was clinging to the arm of Bill
Emmons. The latter was equal to the
occasion, however, for he replied.
"Well, SO long as I've got Barbara's,
I don't mind having yours y and then he
added, quickly, Ct say, Dan, you and I
are two fellows of remarkably good sense. :"
So Barbara's difficulty about her step
mothers future as well as her own was
removed for her entirely, and, curiously
enough, Dan Grover spent the remainder
of his natural life in the unbroken asslr-
ance that neither he nor his admirable
wife had ever known but one love-

Death on the Plains.

A letter from Deadwood City, D. T.,
relates the following sad story Of suffer-
ing and death on the plains: GA party
Of $50 men from various parts Of the
country, with fifty wagons, left Bismarck
for the Black Hills March 2. At Cannon
Ball river dissatisfaction was expressed
by many over the slow movement, and a
party of five, consisting of Tyler. Fad
dock and Frank Raymond, of Northfeld,
Mimi; G. O. Daniels, of Syracuse, N.
Y, and a Swede named Burch started
ahead, and we're joined at Grand river
by deserter from Fort Lincoln. The
six left Grand river March 81. A terri
BILE snow-storm prevailing, the wagon
train remained at Grand river several
days, and party while out hunting came
upon Paddock and Burch, who, in wan
dering about, had been lost. Burch's
feet had been frozen, and we're badly
swollen. His boots were cut off, and
walking over cactus thistles had badly
lascerated the flesh. Paddock is recover
ing; Burch will die. The bodies of
Raymond and Daniels were found twenty
miles further on, frozen stiff. The two
had dug with knives hole foot and a
half deep, throwing the dirt around the
sides for shelter. Then, discharging
their guns, which they placed by their
sides, they lay down, and, in abiect mis-
cry, expired. The remaining two of the
party have not been heard from, and the
Inference is fair that they, too, persisted
in the terrible storm. The bodies of
Raymond and Daniels were buried at
Grand river, their effects being taken
possession of by their companions.

Injurious Effects of Tobacco.

The senior physician of the Metro
politan Free Hospital in London writes
as follows "But [ can testify, from
long observation, that the chronic use of
tobacco in any form is very prevalent
cause of debility and manifold diseases.
Take, first of all, the sense of sight. One
of our most celebrated London ophthal-
mic surgeons tells me that he is continu-
ally consulted by young gentlemen for
weakness of vision caused by smoking,
and [ myself have, in many cases, seen
the prolonged use of tobacco, especially
when it is chewed, cause total loss of
sight Then take the circulatory sys-
tenn, and we find smokers subject to pal
pitation Of the heart, and far less able to
bear up against extremes of cold and heat
than they were before making use of
tobacco. The teeth are often, very often,
rendered black and unseemly by the use
of cigars and pipes; and the mouth OF
the chewer is a filthy object, in many
cases, to contemplate with the eye Of a
lover of human health and beauty. The
use of tobacco is apt to cause relaxation
of the muscles of the back of the mouth,
and dusky discoloration Of the fauces,
with hoarseness from congestion OF the
vocal cords. The overwhelming ma
jority of cases Of cancer of the lip are
found in men who smoke, and cancer of
the tongue has often been said to be
caused by the irritation of the fumes of
the pipe, or cigar. Great smokers lose
to a great extent their vivacity, i. e., they
are less vital than they used to be, and
less easily moved by slight stimuli which
might prove pleasurable to non-smokers.
They are notoriously dyspeptic. [ need
hardly refer, indeed, to such a well-known
fact. They are subject to constipation
and naoloise and when deprived of their
stimulus are more miserable, perhaps,
than even drinkers. I cannot see why
men smoke when women do not. We
should, I am sure, object strongly to our
women destroying the pearly whiteness
of their teeth or losing their vivacity and
impressibility by the use of any such
poison as nicotine, even in small doses.
Hence must take the liberty to protest
against a custom which has been in
Weighed against by Brodie, Copeland,
Crichett, Guerin, Mantegazza, Caco-
pardo, and numerous heads of my pro-
fession in all countries.

GOING HOME-A BOHEMIAN SONG

BY RICHARD HENRY STODDARD.
went home with Ludmllla-
AS j very often dc
We sat on the grass together
But what is that to you?
Beneath the trees we chatted,
But not word of love;
AS innocent as children.
Or the birds that sang above.
Isqueezed her little fingers,
That pressed, methought, my own
"Ludmilla! o LIldmilla
1t you were only grown!''
At the cheeks of poor Ludmilla,
Who turned away her head,
You might have lighted a CANDLE
They blushed so red, so red !!
s. What is it, dear Ludmilla,
What maiden hopes or fears %
Her answer 20 my question
Was sudden stream of tears,
Weep not, weep not, Ludmilla,,'
Or let your tears be few
My heart is constant ever
And only beats for you!"
The moon stole out of the darkness.
AS bright as bright could be;
She smiled when kissed my darling,
And wished that she were she!
Wen meet again tomorrow?
And each the promise made;
Then something rustied near us
But we were not afraid.
I went home with Ludmilla-
Not as I used to do;
For I covered her with kisses
But what is that to you?

Black Hills Litigation.

At Deadwood, Dakota, a few days ago,
a dispute arose, in which seven persons
we're engaged, concerning the title Of a
town-lot. After some harsh language,
all hands drew shooters and commenced
firing. Result: Dan O'Bradoyitch, of
Eureka, New, killed; Steven Corsich, of
same place, mortally shot; and N. Mil
Itch slightly wounded. Another dis
turbance, caused by town-lots jumping,
occurred about the same hour, during
which several shots were fired, but no
body hurt.

SEEKING THE MAY-FLOWER.
BY EDMUND G. sTEDMAN.


The sweetest sound our whole year round
TITS the first robin of the spring!
The song of the full orchard choir
Is not so fine thing.
Glad sights are common; Nature draws
Her random pictures through the year,
But oft her music bids us long
Remember those most dear.
To me, when in the sudden spring
hear the earliest robins lay,
With the first trill there comes again
One picture Of the May.
The veil is parted wide, and 10,
A moment though my eye1ds close,
Once more [ see that wooden hill
Where the arbutus grows.
I see the village dryad kneel,
Trailing her slender fingers through
The knotted tendrils, as she lifts
Their pink, pale flowers to view.
Once more I dare to stoop beside
The dove-eyed beauty of my choice,
And long to touch her careless hair,
And think how dear her voice.
MY eager, wandering hands assist
With fragrant blooms her lap to fill,
And half by chance they meet her own,
Half by our young hearts will.
TILL at the last, those blossoms won
Like her, so pure, so sweet, 80 shy
Upon the gray and Hchened rocks
Close at her feet lie.
Fresh blows the breeze through hemIock-treee
The fields are edged with green below;
And naught but youth and hope and love
We know or care to know!
Hark from the moss-clung apple bough,
Beyond the tumbled wall, there broke
That gurgling music of the May
Twas the first robin spoke!
heard it, ay, and heard it not
For little then my glad heart visit
What toll and time should come to pass,
And what delight be missed;
Nor thought thereafter, year by year
Hearing that fresh yet olden song,
To yearn for Hnreturning joys
That with it's joy belong.
