THE DREAMER.

All day the white-haired woman sits
Beside the open door and knits;
No living thing her dim eye sees,
AS, busy with old memories,
She dreams her dreams of what has been
And knits her old-time fancies in.
Though years have fallen like the leaves
Above the grave where Summer weaves
her grass-fringed coverlet, to keep
Safe hid from the ones asleep,
Whose face was loves interpreter.
. dreamer! young again to-day,
What matter if your hair is gray!
She talks with them. When brown-winged
bees
Make merry in the locust trees,
She thinks he comes and sits with her
Whose voice was loves interpreter.
y dreamer! young again to-day,
What matter if your bair is gray!
Sometime she thinks that round her knee
Her children play in happy glee,
And when they tired and sleepy grow
She sings some song of long ago,
And on her loving mother breast,
She rocks her little one to rest.
0 dreamer! knitting all the day
Your dreams in with your stitches strry,
Yours is n happy, happy heart
\ haunted world from our apart,
The years that turned your tresses gray
Have given you back your youth to-day.

CHAPTER III,

The next morning. to Maggie's very
great surprise, Miss Patterson came into
the schooI-room before the children had
assembled.
miss Dunlop" she said, stiffly, 81
should like to know where you say you
met Mr.. Granger"
"At Porlock. His uncle lived next
door to my mother. He is very old
friend indeed -
"Thank you. I merely wished to in
quire, because, of course, you must be
aware that it is not usual for any one in
your position to make herself remarkable
by having long confidential talks with any
gentlemen who may visit the house."
"I don't know what you mean, Miss
Patterson2" Maggie said, Indignantly.
But Miss Patterson had swept out the
room without deigning to reply.
Then Maggie went into her own little
room, the one place she had in the world
entirely to herself, and cried till her eyes
were red and her head ached.
The lessons did not progress that morn
ing Maggie was thinking of Alic, who
was no doubt strolling about the common
listening to the band and making love to
the heiress. The children were more than
usually stupid, too, and all the world
seemed upside down, and all its ways
turned crooked. Suddenly, at about
twelve o'clock, just when Maggie was in
the middle of expounding as best she
could the eccentricities of the French
grammar, there was knock at the school
room door.
"Come in" she said.
The door opened, and there stood be-
fore her astonished eyes the form of Alic
Granger, and behind him was man evi-
IDENTIFY his servant-with box on his
shoulders.
"All right Tim, put it down; that's
right; now be off. There, I've brought
the curiosities round, Maggie; thought
you'd like to see them."
ooh! what will Mrs. Marshall and Miss
Patterson say2" said Maggie, in conster-
nation.
"Nothing to you for the next half hour
or so, for have seen them safely on their
way to Woolwich, and thought I should
Just get quiet chat with you. My dears, .
he said turning to Maggie's wide-eyed
open -mouthed pupils, "I'm sure you'd
like to be off for half an hour; run along
my little dears," and he opened the door
| for them, and shut it after them.
:. aOh, Alicw she said, in fear and trem.

'0h, Maggiel" he answered, mimick.
| ing. What did you mean by going
away from Porlock, and not leaving any
| address?"
81 couldn't help il, and you never
wrote" she answered, helplessly.
"No, ] never write letters; don't know
how to spell well enough. But / have
been hunting for you all over the place
and never dreamed of finding you here
Now we'll unpack the box; I had il

by lock.
"But, Alic, they'll never forgive me-"
"Never mind, it doesn't matter, because

week. Besides, they'll forgive me any
thing. saved the colonel's life when he

"vhat Everybody says Must be True"

The incontrovertible testimony offered by
those who have used DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription induced the doctor to sell it under a
positive guarantee. Many ladies have re-
frainedfrom using it on account of general
feeling of prejudice against advertised medi-
cines. Let me ask question. Are you pref
udiced against sewing machines because you
have seen them advertised? or can you doubt
the ingenuity and skill required in their in
vention? Again, would you refuse to insure
your house because the company advertised
that it had paid millions in losses, and yet had
a capital of several millions? Do such adver-
tisements shake your confidence and create
prejudices? Then why refuse to credit the testi-
mony of those who have found the Favorite
Prescription to be all that is claimed for it
in overcoming those ailments peculiar to your
sex? Why submit to the use Of harsh, andper-
haps caustic treatment, thus aggravating your
malady, when relief is guaranteed, and pos
tive, perfect, and permanent cure has been eff
fected in thousands of cases?
WABASH STATION, ILL.,, October "a, 1876.
R. V. PIERCE, M. D., Buffalo, N. Y:
Dear Sr:-Allow me to extend my most
sincere thanks to you for the great benefit my
wife has received from the use of your Favorite
Prescription. She suffered almost intolerably
before using your medicine, and had tried the
skill of several physicians, but to no purpose.
Finally 1 thought would give the Favorite
Prescription trial, and she is now sound
and well.
Very gratefully yours, D. A. HUNTER.

of heathenish looking clubs and bran
dished them over her head, and then pro-
ceeded to pull out the rest of the con-
tents of the box and to decorate the
school-room with them. There's Mr.
Buddha, and there's-why, what's the
matter, Maggie?"
Nothing; only you will get me into
dreadful trouble-you will, indeed
Miss Patterson came in this morning and
scolded me for talking to you last night. y
"Never mind, she was only jealous, " he
laughed. "Now tell me how soon you
can leave here"
"What fora" she asked, innocently.
"Why, you haven't forgotten that we
agreed to get married when came back,
have you, you little coquette9" and he
put his arm around her waist just as OF
old, and was not reproved. 1t was SO
very comfortable, she thought.
"No, but you are engaged, are you
not9"
"Yes, of course am-to YOU"
cob! but, Alic"-
"Oh! but, Maggie" And then he
stopped and kissed her, and nothing more
could be said, for the door opened, and
there stood the colonel, and there stood
Mrs. Marshall, and there stood Maria Pat
terson.
"Miss Dunlopw screamed Maria, hor-
ror-struck.
"Mr. Granger!' said Mrs. Marshall in
astOnishment.
"Hoity-toity !" exclaimed the colonel.
- What does all this mean?"
"She must leave the house at once"
said the heiress.
"Of course she must" Mrs. Marshall
said. IT never heard of such thing in
my life"-
"My dear Mrs. Marshall" said Alic,
looking as if he were beginning speech,
"it is all my fault. You told me, and so
did the colonel, to consider your house
nv home, and l have done so. Miss Dun
lop here was playfellow of mine once,
and when went away we were engaged,
but somehow we lost sight of each other
when there was few thousand miles be-
tween us, and it was the happiest moment
of my life to meet her again last night;
and so I took the liberty of calling on her
this morning, and we were just arranging
to get married next week when you inter
rupted u.s."
"Quite right, quite right, my dear
Granger" said the old colonel, heartily,
"you shall be married from here -
"Oh! please let me go to mamma-do
let me 90 at once," pleaded Maggie, find
ing her little tongue at last.
6 think it would be much more salts
factory if Miss Dunlop went back to her
relations" said the heiress, sourly.
So they all finally agreed, and that very
afternoon Maggie packed up her modest
belongings and all the curiosities, and
went to the well-off and bad-tempered
aunt.
The bad-tempered aunt received her
niece very graciously when she found she
was going to marry we'll the following
week. It is amazing how fond people are
of rich relations, even though the riches
concern them little personally. As for
poor Mrs. Dunlap, she could have jumped
for ioy only she was too old for such vio-
lent exercise.
"Pray, miss, what are you laughing to
yourself about?" asked Alic the evening
before their wedding day.
"Nothing, Alic, only when you were
away, I used to think sometimes, that
perhaps you'd marry Chinese heiress
with pigtail."
"The sort of thing you would think, "
he said, grandly; 'as it is, you see, 1 am
going to marry a little girl without pig
tail; and am very happy, my darling
are you?"
every, very" she said; and she was.

CHAPTERII.

Maggie was twenty years old when her
father died, and the creditors did pounce
down, and she and her mother were sold
out Mrs. Dunlop was offered home in
London by sister who was well off and
bad tempered, and it was thankfully ac-
copied, Maggie was informed that she
must get her own living, which being
precisely Maggie's own opinion as we'll as
intention, she advertised for situation as
governess. Now, Maggie had a very
modest idea of her own merits, and there
fore only asked for twenty-five pounds
year and a comfortable home, so no less
tran five answers came to her announce
ment that she could teach English, French
music and the rudiments of drawing.
One of these answers came from Wool
Nlch, and stated that Mrs. Marshall re-
quired governess for her three little
girls. Mrs. Marshall was a stifnecked
sort of woman, and stared at poor little
Maggie (who looked almost as childlike
and twice as pretty as ever through
double gold glasses. Colonel Marshall,
her husband, was nice old man, with o
bald head and an iron gray nustache,
and there was a grown up daughter,
Miss Patterson Mrs. Marshall's daughter
by her first husband, who was really the
mistress of the establishment, for Maria
Patterson had a strong will, and she was
an he1ress. "A very nasty heiress too"
poor Maggie thought, and she was right,
for Maria was skinny, and thought her
self sarcastic, and always said nasty
things to people who did not dare say
them back again.
One evening, when Maggie had been
about year at Woolwich, and she was
sitting alone in her schooI-room as usual,
for her pupils had just said goodnight
and been delivered up to the tender mer
cies OF their nurse, Miss Patterson walked
in very much dressed, and rather flushed
and excited.
