The exquisite little laughing shout he ut
tered was enjoyed on every side, and flow
ers rained down from all the windows as
the cherub passed. In the humming silence
of the street, one could only hear the deaf
ened sound of the regular movement Of
feet in the procession, while flowers by the
handful still continued to fall silently upon
the pavement. Very soon there were heaps
of them.
But now treasured upon the good order
of the laymen, the Able Cornille grew
impatient and disturbed, inasmuch as the
procession had been stationary for nearly
two minutes, and he walked quickly toward
the head of it. bowling and smiling at the
Huberts as he passed.
"What has happeneda What can pre-
vent them from continuingp said Angel
ique, all feverish from excitement, as if she
were waiting for some expected happiness
that was to come to her from the other end
that was stiIl in the church.
Hubertine answered her gently, as usual
"There is no reason why they should
run"
There is some obstruction evidently
perhaps it is 'reposoir' that Is still unfin-
ished,n Hubert added
The young girls of the Society of the
Blessed Virgin, the daughters Of Mary" as
they are called, had already commenced
singing q canticle, and their clear voices
rose i'll the air, pure as crystal. Nearer
and nearer the double ranks caught the
movement, and recommended their march.

September.


Nh season Of the sunset gown.
Remember! when the leaves are sere;
When winds grow cold and valleys brown
"IhI saddest, strongest of the year
September! when the summer dies,
And waters wear a grnyer hue
iron mirroring the paler skies,
where ashel gath ring on the blue.
MARX the beginning Of q change,
Which leadet past October's glow
ghrough dull November's bleaker range
To dead DEFENDERS paleless snow.
oh passing sadl--oh, sad as strange!
A. when we seek the face of one
INST poised upon the verge of life
and catch that subtle pallors dawn
which writes the ending of the strifel-
How much of pain, and how much more,
IN this first hint of change begun,
Where pale hope passes out the door,
Than when the sad work all is done!--
September, alb, of chilly breath,
nj sorrow symbol--seal of DEATH
Since June with all her happier train,
Before and after, has passed on
And out beyond the glad ming grain
OF summer harvests, and the sun
Has turned to follow them and shines
Rut coldly backward, with light
Akin TO that sad moan of pines
In vigil with the winds of night,
IA silence broods along the shore
filmy mystery on the sea-
And sorrow passing on before,
Spread sadness over wood and lea;
Illomened ravens leave the hedge
To haunt the long lanes all the day,
And purpling marsh and rllstling sedge
Hide frightened things that start away
At sound Of every footstep near,
As though expectant of some fear.
The BIRDS departing madrigals
For this strange season dirges seem;
The aitumnS crimson cardinals
Flame hectcally by the stream;
The last of summers flowers CLEAN
Along the sobered hills and dales;
The brooks down through the meadows seen
To murmur half forgotten tales
OF loves that lived through summers tide
OF hopes that with the meadows doomed
OF all that with the summer died,
And in September hes entombed.-
Al, clouds that gather overhead
And airs that Chill the afterdayl-
Ye find your dull refiexes shed
In many heart grown ashen gray
Grown gray with white ash overstrewn,
For burning with the summer flown!
And 1t is thus, and thus Away,
Where lives and loves in blending must,
Or soon or late, find in decay
The end of all-and all in dust!-
Where still, when ends life's summer song,
And painful waking finds it fed,
We brood in silent grief among
The dust and ashes of our dead;
Where breaking twig and falling leaf,
And autumn's paleneSS on the flowers
And barren field and scattered sheep,
Bleak waste and lonely ways, are ours
The joy--the light--the life departs
Despair paints all our horoscopes
In the September time of hearts
The pale September of our hopes!

A Life On the Ocean Wave

Indurates the stomach against sea-
 sickness, but 8 single or occasional
 transit across the "illimitable wetness" is productive of grievous qualms, es-
 pecially when it is stormy. Ocean travellers, yachtmen, ship surgeons, commercial buyers sent abroad, voy- agers by steamboat, and all who are occasionally or frequently called upon to be where "billows are buffeted, i" should take along Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the finest known antidote for sea-sickness, malaria, biliousness, and disorders of the stomach and bowels. Many tras elers by railroad, with del-
 icate stomachs and nerves, likewise suffer severely en route. These will find the bitters surely helpful and consolatory. Travelling, even in swift, steady and commodious steamships and sumptuous palace cars, is not al- ways c eource of unmixed joy and de- light, and the Bi.ters does much to counteract the discomforts attending it, aggravated by delicate health. Rheumatism, brought on by damp weather, kidney troubles and debility, are effectually relieved by the Bitters.

pink fists struck at him, and then th< child's long fingers entwined them selves In his long beard. 'NOo's oo?" chirruped the baby.
 His honor pushed his captor back, very gently, and then looked ct the sheriff"
 'sShe's a peart gal" remarked Jim.
 The judge bolied out of the door, followed by the faithful officer.
 "Jim, this Is getting serious"
 "Looks like tough old case," vol- unteered the sheriff.
 "I can't lock that baby up in our dirty old jail, and won't"
 "How will you fix it, jedgel" asked the other. "Under the law we can't bid for the prisoner" "I know what I'll do," said the iudge-"I say, Bob, come here :" he shouted to man on the other side of the street.
 Bob crossed over very reluctantly. He was tenant on a small farm be- longing to the judge, and he was be- hind with his rent.
 He expected to be dunncd, but he was mistaken.
 In word the situation was ex- plained to him.
 But I can't bid," he objected, "l ain't able"
 "D-n It, man! '" shouted the judge, "offer dollar"
 "But l can't pay that-d owe you fifty dollars now.''
 "Confound you" roared the judge, Do as tell you, and you shall have your own time about paying the back rent.'
 "All right" replied the fellow slow ly, "but Sally Black cannot work and I cannot afford to feed her."
 "See here, Rob-" growled the judge, with determined look, "you put this woman and her baby in the little cabin on the hill. They won't starve. pll send them enough to eat"
 Bob had no more to say. It was & good bargain for him, and in less than five minutes he was marching down the street, followed by Sally Black and the baby.
 The next day the judge sent in his resignation 10 the governor.
 To his friends he made a very satis- factory explanation
 "Under our special act" he said, "l receive no salary. l am paid in fees, and don't get any. Then l have to lend the prisoners money 10 pay their fines, and 1t is getting so that will have to support some of the convicts. This court business will run me in debt if stick to 1t, and that is why resigned"
 So Sally Black and the baby were quartered in & comfortable log cabin on the judges plantation, and their rations were sent to them every week from the big white house over the river.
 What became of them after Sally's term was out?
 The Blue Rock people would laugh at such a question. They knew the judge. Sally Black needs no written lease-no contract with witnesses. She will stay in the little cabin as long az she and the little baby like it, and the neighbors think she Is settled there for life.

Hard Poker Luck.
St. Lotus Post Dispatch


 took my papers and tried to read, i, but lost all interest in reading, and drew my chair close to the table 70 watch the game. I looked on for a while, and became perfectly disgusted with the players, to think what chumps they were. Why, they didn't know how to play. Here was another evidence of my luck. If l hadn't sworn of, might have won couple of hundred dollars. I watched their game so long that I thought would risk fifty dollars, and if l lost that l would quit, and-well, fifty dollars more or less for expenses wouldn't cut much of figure. So l went to the captain and bought fifty dollars worth of "corn." They used corn in those days, having no chips as we do now. I started in to play, and after a while lost all the corn had. It was not my bad playing, but simply hard luck. thought I couldn't always lose, so invested one hundred dollars more in corn, and to make long story short, lost that. After losing one hundred and fifty dollars l became desperate and played with great recklessness. invested the balance of my money in corn, and had lost all but five or ten grains, which had in my coat pocket when the boat whistled for landing. The first mate arose and said
 "Gentle,nen, am very sorry, but we have to take on some wood at this station and my services are needed. You gentlemen can continue the game or wait until we get under steam again, and will join you"
 After . while we agreed to wait for the mate. I thought I would take 6 stroll on deck and get some fresh air. walked down the gang plank, and where the boat had landed there was . great, large hou.e. l could not tell what kind of a house it was, as the night was pitch dark. I walked up to 1t and felt that there were holes in the side. l ran my fingers through the holes, and imagine my surprise when I found 1t contained corn. I had accidentally run across . corn crib. l was not of deviiish disposi- ton, but I thought if I took an ear of corn and I won, why l would place in my pocket what had taken and only cash what I had resiiy won; but, on the other, if lost--weIl, 1t was like drowning man catching at . straw. So took an ear of corn and placed it in my pocket and commenced sheliing 1t. In the course of half an hour the boat started down the river, and we resumed the game. From the start I commenced winning. Everything I drew to I got. won pot after pot. About three o'clock in the morning some one proposed that we have . jackpot and quit for the night.
