After the guests had departed, and
Mrs Dale WAS alone with her brother,
she remarked:
Leslie. l did not know you had seen
Miss Rogers before this evening. May

''CertainlY, sis. met her in an
orchard not far from here on the day OF
my arrival"
"Well. wish you had not made your-
self quite so conspicuous this evening
with her. She is a perfect hoyden."
my dear sister, cannot see in what
/ made myself conspicuous. l presume
II l had chosen Miss Eldridge or any
other young lady it would have been all
proper"
II tell you, Leslie, she is a child, aud
and hope you have said nothing to
her that will lead her to think you are
serious"
My dear Ceeily, do not make yourself
nervous over Ine. lam a man, and OF
age, Good night"
Mr.. RU9ers had invited him over to
dine next day, and be had accepted, So
that afternoon he told his sister not 10
wait dinner for him, as he had an inyi-
tation TO dine out.
"Are you going to Rose cottaqe9"
"Yes, am. Why2"
II do wish you would think OF what
I said last night, Leslie"
"Cecily, do not like TO be rude, but

er adjust for HIMSELF
So be visited Rose cottage, and it was
only the first of many visits. He knew
this little hoyden watched for his visite.
he saw the bright color come and go in
the peachy cheeks; Eud, although bis

turned deaf ear and gave his heart ints
the keeping of this child-woman, who
had grown wonderfully quiet and digni
fed under the overpowering influence oi
deep, true. and lasting love.
Once again be finds her in her accus

GARRY THIS KISS TO MOTHER.
BY THKo. D. C. MILLER.

Carry this kiss to mother,
A dying soldier said;
While on the neld Of battle
He lay beside the dead;
And tell her am thinSing
or home and friends afar,
Ere am called to journey
Above the shining star.
Garry this kiss to mother,
Aud tell her not to weep
When l am laid forever
With comrades braYe to sleepl
This night will soon be over,
And then life's day will come,
When l can meet my mother
Within the angels home.
Carry this kiss to mother
Last token Of my love-
And tell her in life's morning
III wait for her abovel
My feet will tread the valley,
Where flowers immortal grow,
Where souls will live forever,
Aud sunbeams brightly glow.
Carry this kiss to mother,
So she may feel andlatnow
How very much | love her
When am called to goj
And tell her not to sorrow,
But dry each falling tear,
While waiting for he dawning
OF life's bright morn SO clear.
Garry this kiss to mother,
When am laid To rest;
And tell her shall never
Lean on her Toying breasu
Our home in dear New England
Will charm my eyes no more,
But shall be so happy
Upon the other shore.
Carry this kiss to mother
The last one | shall send;
Now Heaven is drawing nearer,
My earth. life soon will endl
But o'er the silent river
The home of love see,
Where shall dwell forever
Beside the crystal sea.

Three Unhappy EmpsrorA
From Life. 1ondon.)

An immense amount Of rubbish II
both written and talked about the meet.
ing of the three Emperora According
to some folks, these three worthy gen.
tlemen met to plan out schemes of in.
ternational robbery; others declare that
they met only to "isolate 10 belle
France"-whatever that they mean;
whilst third section assure us that the
old topic of the imperial tongues was
England, and her base schemes for an
nexing the whole OF this world and the
next too. Poor Emperors! how amused
they must be at all the inconsequent
chatter that goes on snent their pro-
ceedings! The fact is. they met solely
to form themselves into mutual pro-
lection society. They are so beset by
Anarchists, by Socialists, and by Nihi-
lists that they are at their imperial Wits
ends. and don't know which way to turn.
So they said, Let us meet, and see il
we cannot devise scheme whereby
some small modicum of human happi-
ness may not be reserved for us. They
are indeed pitiable sight, these three
Emperors, lodging bombshells, scut-
tling from corner to corner of their
vast dominions in the dead of night,
hiding under sheaves of sabres, driving
through streets made gay by official
bunting. Who would be an Emperor,
indeed!

"This is very bud. I an extremely
sorry it should have happened" said
Mrs. Selden, gazing sadly at her dear,
wretohed. wayward little daughter.
And to have it happen just as tho
beautiful Christmas is coming, when
everybody ought to be glad and happy!
What kind of o Christmas day is it

Cant ever, ever take it back?"
''Yes; you can ask Jessie to forgive
you..,
20 mamma, mamma, mammal jessie
was had herself! If ask her to forgive
me- she will think she was goodl And,
oh, she wasn't good! She was almost
half as bad as II"
Mrs. Selden said no more, but wisely
left her little daughter by herself 70
think.
At supper-time Zaidee's eyes we're
still pink from weeping; but her face
looked serene, and the smiles were
playing about her mouth. The truth is
she had written letter to Jessie. It
was very neatly done in violet ink, and
she had put in the left-hand corner of
the envelope, Kindness of Zaidee, {"
thinking that was the latest stvle.
though the person who took the letter
was Nancv, the cook. And she laughed
to think Zaidee called herself kind!
The letter was short:
Ny AFFEcTIoNATE FRIEND:
l. ! am very sorry l nockt you down first
respectively, rs
This was all Jessie needed to mako
her happy, for she had the tenderest
little heart in oil the world.
She wrote in reply. II forgive you."
And in the left hand corner Of her en-
yelope were the words, Kindness of
jessie" for she supposed that must be
the proper thing, and she never allow
ed Zaidee to be more fashionable than
herself if she could possibly help it.
And, indeed, there was kindness"
now in the hearts of both little girls,
and sincere repentance, too, for their
foolish bad behavior. "The angel with
pearly wings" had come back again tho
unhappy little "breeze" lad blown over;
and in "three nights and two DAYS."
Zaidee aud Jessie were enjoying the
merriest Christmas that ever dawned
in Boston Town. Wide Awake.

are under strict military discipline and
the captain has warrant to place any
mslefactors in irons. The officers ap-
10 rank and the sailors have their pecu.
liar garb all marked with the arms of
the anchor given to which the ship be-
longs. Officers are not allowed to talk
with passengers or to deviate in any
way from straight line while on duty.
This is ell the better, since so many
lives are in their hands. The services
of the surgeon are furnished free. The
meats are kept in an immense refriger-

at zero; SO it SHOWS every day in that
section of the ship.
The menu is made up pretty much

few sea features, such rs "sea biscuits"
and "oat- bread" which is nothing but
the flour from oats done up in wster,
very simple, but healthy, and great
Scotch staff. There is well-stocked
library of standard works in serviceable
red leather, for the entertainment Of
passengers. A pretty picture is the
dining saloon. with ITS row of circular
portfolios. The round glass of the
port-hole is encased in circle of bur-
nished brass on the outside Of the ship
and through frameway of curled ma
pie. Sitting at the table you look
through the port-hole at bit of sky
and trembling blue waves-a beautiful
water-color plaque.
The expenses of these ships for
round trip range from $40 900 to &c.

plants bloom in ornamental boxes and
creeping vines fling themselves in rustic
dounces over rustic baskets depending
from stained glass skylights, through
which all tho colors of the rainbow
play in fair weather.

Auecdote Of General Scott.

General Stone related an anecdote of
Gen. Scott which has not appeared in
print. "When was with him in Wash.
ington in the early days of 1861" he
said, "the old general has charged with
the work Of dozen men. Every Wis.
'tor who came to the capitol, however,
felt it necessary to see him. This both
cred and worried him 80 that ho was
nigh distracted. One day my friend,
Licnt. Governor Arnold, of Rhode Is
land, came to me and said lie wanted
to call on the general. I tried to dis.
suade him, but he persisted. So I told
HIM all right, but added: Arnold,
when you do see him, for heavens sake
say something; don't let him do all the
talking. He promised me lie would, and
he did. After his presentation, and
before tho greeting had more than
passed, he said: General Scott, I
want to tell you story. The general
looked wearied, but said nothing.
When was in London, during the
war'-the generals attention was at
once fixed-I dined frequently at the
Army and Navy and United Service
clubs with my friend Colonel Byrne,
one of the staff of the Duke of Yelling
ton The general was now thoroughly
excited. 'One day we were dining
and the papers brought tho news that
you had shut yourself up in Puebla,
and had withdrawn all you outposts
between the city and the scacoast.
This aroused the contempt of the Off
GERS present, who declared the Ameri-
can officers set of ignoramuses, and
all prophesied your capture. 1 was
mad enough to throw bottle at some
ones head, but 1 should have had to
throw it everywhere, as the opinion
was universal. Noticing my wrath,
Colonel Byrne said to me; Now
don't lose You temper, and list
ten to what the Duke of Yelling
ton said. You know he got this
news before the papers, and was con-
versing with me about it, anxiously
waited, and Byrne continued: Scott
said the duke, has withdrawn his out
posts, cut off his communications with
the coast, and has shut himself up in
Puebla. 70 miles from Mexico. Very
we'll. The country is rie'., and he can
gather the crops and sustain himself
until reinforcements reach him from
the United States. Ifhc is good gen.
eral he will do this and it will be all
right; but he added, with twinkle
in his eye, if he is great general, the
next You will hear Of him he will be in
Mexico, and the war will be over 'As
this was really what happened con-
tinucd Gen. Stone,' you can imagine
the delight of Gen. Scott. All weari-
ness for that day was gone, and the
visit inspired him as nothing else could
have done.'"
