DELIGHT OF HIS SOUL.

As for the people, am, and always
shall be, Of good st. Francis Xavier's
feeling: This nation is the delight of
my souln Never have I passed days
more happy, tranquil or restorative than
among Japanese, of all classes, in the
| cities, towns and villages of Japan.
Possibly that is because 1 have had no
business relations with my kind and
pleasant Niponese friends, and have
never talked very much metaphysics:
but it seems certainly an easy way to
keep on the right side of folks, to let
philosophy and theology alone. More
over, it is, no doubt, necessary for such
experiences to go little behind that sort
of Japan which you find on the Hatobas
of Yokohama or Kobe; in the Yoshi-
waras of those and the other open ports.
At very little distance from the surface.
which we civilizing Westerners have done
our best to spoil, will be still discovered
the old, changeless, high-tempered gener-
ous, simple and sweet-mannered Japan of
old. | frankly confess il has entirely
charmed me; and therefore what 1 say of
this Japanese nation, and their manners
and customs, must be received with the
proper caution attaching to the language
of friend, and even lover. But where
else in the world does there exist such a
conspiracy to be agreeable; such a wide
spread compact to render the difficult
affairs of life as smooth, as graceful as
circumstances admit; such fair DEGREES of
fine behavior fixed and accepted for all;
such universal restraint of the coarser
impulses of speech and act; such pretty
picturesqueness of daily existence; such
lively love of nature as the embellisher of
that existence; such sincere delight in
beautiful artistic things; such frank en-
joyment of the enjoyable; such tender
ness to little children; such reverence for
parents and old PERSONS; such widespread
refinement of taste and habits; such
courtesy to strangers; such willingness to
please and to be pleased.-ScTabner'

emotions she sank back exhausted. Guy,

ened bewildered. Then, as she contin-
ued, he drew himself up and asked her
to explain what she meant.
So she told him between choking sobs.
Guy heard her to the end, and then in re-
proachful tones said:
"Amparo, you-you my best beloved,
heart of my heart, thought this of me,
doubted me, thought me murderer, an
associate OF evil companions, thief?
Well, with those thoughts in your mind
had better not disabuse you. Adios.''
At the sweet old familiar word Amparo
fell at his feet, claSping her hands in pit
eous entreaty for forgiveness, saying:
"Oh! Guy! | wronged you bitterly.
Forgive me, forgive my unjust suspicious
for my dear sainted mothers sake.n
Then Guys old love for her conquered
his wounded feelings. Raising her he
clasped her to him, saying:
before God and your dead mother,
Amparo, am innocent of your charges;
put forgive you as | hope to be for
given. Now, darling" he said, when
she had become calmer, 81 will tell you

All those boats carrying pilots have

ter to meet our steamer, the one we were
to come over in. Jim Thornleigh, my
partner, sent me that cablegram. The
yacht had been in one severe gale; the
weather was still stormy, and he cabled,

He knew l would understand it. How
| little he thought my own wife would put
such a misconstruction on it, or what ag-
ony that simple message would make me
undergo for years"
During this recital Amparo chung to
him in an agony of shame and repent
ance, pleading for forgiveness for his
loves sake.
So he, loving her, forgave her freely,
fully. Her friends, coming in at the
close of the meeting, were surprised on
being introduced to her husband. She
explained 1t to her intimate friends. and
seeing her radiant, happy face, not one
doubted that now it was well with her,
and her woman's right to love and be
loved was voted without dissent.
Her speech that night was not finished.
The next night, however, she gave an
eloquent, thrilling one, that touched all
hearts. Then she gave up her position
at the convention and went to New York
with her husband.
So we will leave them 'With long
years of love that go beyond this life,
their days all peace and joy, with sweet
hopes rife"

still following the course OF the yacht as
she bore away with her white wings the
lady whose beauty provoked the discus
sion.

The poet holds the whole universe in his

the storm-lashed waves of old Ocean; in
the sigh of zephyr as she kisses softly the
dew-laden flowers; he sees beauty in rad

twinkling OF an eye, love comes and there
is no melody. no beauty anywhere i'll all

The hope that springs eternal in the

letter cheered Amparo, for she dearly

a sisterly way.
Guy said he just knew it would turn
out that way. 1t did not surprise him at
all, but said: ELMER could never be az
perfectly happy in this life as he was"
When Amparo asked, with lifted eye
brows in establishment "Why?' he said
The has not you" To which pretty re-
ply Amparo answered, by a kiss under
his ear, Guy demonstrating that that was
no place TO kiss people. and, grumbling,
asked for another, please, nearer his
mouth.
But she declared that. she had no time
for kissing as they were both due for

a good scheme to turn this over to the

success OF the carnival, yet at the
public reception at the chamber

the carnival not any mention was made
of the ladies' annex and the work they
had done. They were not even thanked
and the mayor even did not refer to the
annex. That was a slight which no
member OF the annex should overlook"
The next lady met by the HERALD
man was one in favor of continuing the
annex. "All the trouble is on account
of two or three women who were not
put in Office. They will not succeed in
breaking up the annex. There are too
many members in favor of keeping the

Effect of Railroad Building.

The interviews with Counsellor Mcknight of
the Northern Pacific, which have recently been
published give very vivid idea of the amount
of railroad building that is being done and pro-
ected in the northern part of the state but II is
very evident that the rich Skagit country will
be developed most rapidly.
Mr.. Mcknight, who is of all men, one of the
most qualified to speak on such matters. says:
Sin regard to the country north between Se-
attic and the Canadian boundary, it is, think,
the richest section of Washington; it is the
richest country in natural advantages and re-
sources know OF anywhere. Its resources of
coal. iron and timber are unequalled, and dur
ing the next few years no section will compare
with il in rapid development
The natural commercial center of this region
is the city of Anaeortes, at the head of the
Straits OF Fucs, and to this point must be
shipped all the output OF the country for distri-
button. II is because of its commandine posi-
ton, that all the railroads now building in that
Its growth in consequence, will in the next few
wears be marvellous.
