Sleep.
BY j. r. s.

beautiful up from the depths of the solemn sea
Gometh sweet Sleep to me:
UP from the silent deeps,
where no one waits and weeps:
Cometh, as one who dreameth,
With slowly waving hands:
And the sound of her raiment seeMeth
Like waves on the level sands.
There is rest for all mankind,
As her slow Wings stir the wind;
With lullaby the drowsy waters creep
To kiss the feet Of Sleep.

Iudt Is StduuLu0r tfuuk, sure enough,
have seen it hundreds of times" exclaimed
the ghostly being called Mary. But while
the pair examine the trunk and its contents,
by the light of the lantern, let us go back in
our story and close up matters somewhat.
A few months previous to the adventure of
which this unpretending tale is chronicle,
there lived in an old farm house mile or two
from POtterstown, grabbed, misery old
man named Wilkins, better known to all the
country people Whereabouts as Granther Will
kins. His only living relative, an orphaned
grand daughter, kept house for him. 1t was
a hard trial for the young gill to endure the
fretful whims and misery economy of the
crochety old man, yet, because she looked
upon it as her duty, she served him most
faithfully. Granther Wilkins, in his turn,
loved his granddaughter Mary with as deep
an affection as a nature like his could feel,
and he made no secret of the fact that, at
his death, she would be his sole heir. Mar
vellous tales of the vast amount of Granther
Wilkins money were circulated about the
country, and it was his delight to keep these
obOllCo al SiASuidtlOh duu CfCu W duu W tu6m
by dropping sly hints, now and then, in re-
gard to certain shares of bank stock or GER
tain mortgage deeds, which were locked Eup
in trunk at home.
Ofcourse it would be thing unheard of if
pretty, intelligent girl like Mary Wilkins,
having a prospective interest in SO much
money, should ave no lovers. In fact there
were many, of all ages and conditions; but
she turned a cold shoulder to them all.
Among these lovers was Dick Barker, a -four
ishing young farmer who lived near. He
alone had succeeded in arousing an interest
in the young lady's heart, although she had
given even to him so little encouragement
that at times he completely despaired of ever
winning her love.
Things were in this situation, when one
dark, stormy night, an attempt was made to
rob Grandther Wilkins of his trunk of valua-
bles. The burglar had nearly accomplished
his purpose; he had seized the trunk from its
usual place at the head Of the bed and was
retreating from the room with his plumber
when he stumbled over chair and fell.
Aroused by the noise the old man cried out
Justify for help.and, the burglar, hearing steps
approach escaped as speedily as possible
leaving the trunk upon the floor, where he
had dropped in his fall. From the time of
this attempted robbery Granther Wilkins be-
came exceedingly anxious in regard to his
valuables. By day he brooded continually
over the subject and at night he became SO
