GLADYS M'NULTYs LAMENT.

God pity me T.
Gladys McNulty, usuelly SO proud and
composed, and who moveh about in the
little world of those who knew her with
the stately grace of New York Post
editorial, sank on a fauteuil as she ut
tered these words, and sobbed as if her
shoestrings would break.
In the lindens that lined the entrance
to Brierton Villa the robin redbreasts
were thrilling their merriest lays, while
over by the woodshed the haggard out
line of an abandoned hoopskirt through
which the daisies we're peeping showed
that spring, the most pulmonary and
beautiful season of the year, had ar
rived. In the broad fields that stretched
away to the westward the farmers were
preparing the ground for the seed which,
nourished in the bosom of Mother Earth
and warmed by the genial rays of the
sun, would soon become the ripened
grain, yielding to it's owner a bounteous
harvest, and enabling him-toplay against
the banco>when'he visitsC Chicago>in the
fall. A ruddy-faeed boy, picking seed
burrs from between his toes, decks the
horizon and lends an added beauty tc
the enchantment of the scene.
And yet, lying there on the fauteuil,
whose velvety surface is not more soft
than her cheek, Gladys McNulty is sob
bing away the hours of this beautiful
June morning., and ever and anon there
comes from between her white lips
low, despairing moan that is pitiful in
its sad intensity. But finally the con-
vulsive sobs that are racking her. dress
waist grow fainter, aud in q little while
| she sits up. the pink suffusion Of blush
telling all too plainly which side she had
been lying on. ~:
And as she sits there gazing listlessly
into the middle of next week her mother,
| pleasant-faced woman without cdrsets,
entered the room. ,s:s '
"Why are you weeping, Gladys ?' she
asks.
The girl does not answer, and strive
as she may to keep down the sobs that
are yelling up from her heart the effort
is in vain. and again the pretty face is
bedewed with tears. But an instant
later she has conquered her emotions
and looks bravely up at her mother.
II will tell you, mamma,"- she says,
''the cause of my sorrow. l was CRYING
to think that you cannot 60 to the mat

the monody Of death; at tho door, in
place of the coach which waa TO convey
those who had just been made one 70
the festive joys of wedding breakfast
there stood the vehicle which conveys
| all that is left OF man after dissolution
| 10 the dark and narrow house.
