A Tale of q Tunnel.

A newly married couple were en-
route to Washington by the Baltimore
g Ohio. There are many tunnels Oh
this road the other side of the Ohio riv-
er. All through Ohio the face of the
Young man wore occasional looks of
pain, despite bis great joy. He seemed
to want something. Apparently he
yearned. Over in West Virginia the
train entered tunnel. Upon emerg-
ing into the light the young mans face
was seer to wear a studious expression.
He was thinking. At first be seemed
perplexed. then interested, then trium-
phant. He had had revelation. Then
he smiled with firm, manly, cOntinu-
uous smile, and his eyes peered ahead
for the first sign of a yawning cavern
in the mountain side. The bride was
happy and demure. Whish-shadows-
rumble-darkness. The veil is drawn.
It Is another tunnel Light again, and
the young man looks happier than ever.
The brides cheek dispOrts a gentle
blush-a modest, experienced blush,
discoverable only TO the initiated and
envious. No perplexity, no anxiety
now. The revelation has been tested
and found o success. There are many
tunnels, but not enough. If the whole
line were tunnel the bride and groom
would net care how slow the tram pro-
ceeded. The man who has not lived to
bless the builder of tunnels does not
know what happiness is. He is but lit
tie above the brute which never troubled
the Creator for passing clouds oyer the
moon on prayer meeting night. But
our bridegroom was not one of these
parties. He appreciated all the bless
ings which man and nature had bestow-
ed upon him. He did not miss a tun-
mel.
But all things must have an end.
Daylight always comes to the newly
married. Strawberries and cream must
be paid for at the cashiers desk. With
i'm the blissful cucumber hides mic
robe. Our young husband goes for a
drink of water. While .on this errand
his eager eye catches the signs of an
other tunnel. Of course he fears his
birdie will be sore afraid if left alone in
the darkness, and he hastens to her
side. Quick are his feet, but faster
moves the train. Darkness gathers
while he is not yet half dozen seats a
way. But the brave man does not falt-
er. He groupes along. he reaches tn 9
seat for thinks he does] and slides into
it. Deep are the shadows, and huns
the train.
A scream ,long and vigorous-a sound
Of scufling-a thump or two-and the
bright hight of May day breaks upon
the scene. The young husband franti-
cally endeavors to dlsengage himself
from the grasp of an angry colored wo-
man sitting in the seat just behind the
bride. He at length succeeds and re-
tires sullenly TO his seat.
The tunnels come and go, but their
shadows are scarcely deeper than those
upon the face of the young honeymoon.
