Yet il Was noticed that with every
returning spring time the young husband
and father hecame strangely Reckless and

est in his usual pursuits, and absented
himself for days and nights from his
family. 1t was known that he spent
these days aud nights somewhere away
from the town, although it was not known
till long afterward that he spent them in
aimless moody roaming over the open
prairie.
For four or FIVE years this inexplicable
moOdiness possessed him. He accounted
for it to nobody, and became enraged ii
questioned concerning it. Then one
spring day when the prairie stretched
away into a sea Of golden mystery and
hither and thither were almost one, he
disappeared entirely, leaving his young
wife and his many friends tormented
with the strangeness of his taking off.
He remained away year. Then he re-
turned, came again to his family and
friends as if he had not left them for a
day, gave no explanation of his conduct,
and for another year, until another
spring. time, lived as sober and common
place life as any young Benedict in the
town. But with the spring came the
same disappearance, with return two
years later. THIS time he remained with
his family only a few weeks, and the
strange restlessness and mOOdiness never
left him while he remained.
After his next disappearance he never
returned, and nothing was heard of him
for years. Then, after many years.

common in that western city, that it
might be like Smith, Jones, or Brown
without affecting its dignity in the least.
Some years ago, certain tribes OF west

their wrongs upon the Great Fathers at
Washington. Their leader and spokes-

guage in which the Great Father clothes
his ideal. This Indian leader, who had
been educated in France, passed through

famous and populous city, and during
his stay herein, sought out his daughter.
She refused to see him, aud it is said for
better reason than anger for his desertion
of her mother, whom, by the way, he had
left with all his fortune. For, every
spring, when the warm earth ia
pierced through and through with sharp
young blades Of freshest grass, and the
golden mists sweep low like dreams upon
the wild prairies, she, too. is possessed OF
a strange unrest, gearing, and pain,
that she would die rather than confess.
Then she struggles with the awakened
nature within her, and would flee Ter

she follow him.
