A GOLDEN RIDDLE.


The husbandfnan one golden morn
A white seed dropped among the corn.
Beneath the summers mystic spell
II burst erelong the prisoning shell,
And 'twixt the brown loans rifted crust
Its emerald leaflets upward thrust.
Through lengthening days OF rain and shine
Fast grew and thrived the generous vine.
And meath the changing skies held up
For sun and dew its golden cup,
Till in its veins these forces fine
Had wrought mystery divine,
And given to tho world boon
Fair as the goldcn.hearted moon.
The rudy globe against the mold
Outvied the tabled crock OF gold.
Each day n ripper hue 1t gained,
And, while the season waxed and waned,
Tall knights with cleaning lance and sword
Guarded with ceaseless watch and ward
Through midnight hush and MONDAY heat
The golden treasure at their feet.
And when the crops were garncred in.
Ana granary and barn and bin
with wealth OF goodlier gold were stored
Than that which greedy misers hoard,
When glad lips sang the harvest-home
Meath lowly roof and lordly dome
And kim sAd kin, from great 20 least,
Had gathered for the harvest feast
All richer than The rarest wine
This yellow fruitagc OF the vine,
Transmitted by the housewives skill
To golden disks in flaky frill.
No fairer fruit the fields AFFORD,
No choicer Wand decks the board,
And grateful hearts their praises lift
To Him who gives the golden gift.

CHAPTER V.
OLIVES wELCOME.


The journey seemed tedious and long
to Olive, sitting in the corner of the
third-clasS carriage with her basket of
flowers in her lap. As the train drew
near London she was seized with in
ward quaking and misgivings, and
looked down upon the flowers as il they
could give her comfort. But the breath
of the hyacinths was sadly sweet, and
reminded her of that grave on which
she had laid her Faster wreath, Was
IL n gloomy omen that u thought of
death should come 10 her, just ns she
was entering a new path in life?
And then She recalled her last wall;
with Michael, on that April Sunday
evening that seemed SO long ago, His
earnest voice sounded in her ears once
more; his eyes looked into hers with
passionate tenderness; the memory was
SO sweet that it made her heart throb
fast and flushed her check She was

find the present richer i'm happiness
than the past; what could there be to
fear? Olive was too young and too ig-
norant TO know that the anguish of u
reunion is sometimes worse than the
pain of parting.
She remembered that Jane had
gathered that bunch of dark velvet
pausies, and the girls words, spoken

ing and bcwildering day of her own
life. so much was crowded into IL, and
yet 80 many things seemed TO be left
out. Jane went with her into the gar
den, and gathered baslSetful of the
best flowers that they could find-rich
velvety pansies, delicate hyacinths, jon
quils, tulips, violets, all mingled with
plumes of fresh green ferns. And
while they fingered over the flowers,
they talked again of Aaron, and looked
forward hopefully to the meeting that
should bring the long-desired cxplana-
| ton.
II was to Aaron's fathcr--old Fen
lake, of the "Boar's Ilead"-that Olive
was indebted for her drive to Peters
field. Ills ostler was to convey her and
her box to the railway station, and when
the cart came up to the garden gate,
Olive was waiting with n little group
around her. Mrs. Ilooper's farewell
was the last.
This is something that Lucy left for
you, my dear" she whispered, putting
sealed envelope into her hand. ~
was charged not to give it you till you
were setting off on your journey; and
I've kept it all these months. Good-by,
come back to me-"
The cart moved off. Olive, seated on
her box, looked back on the little group
at Tie gate, and waved to them until II
turn in the road hid them from her
sight. Her driver was old and deaf,
and did not talk TO anyone but his
horse, and she could open the sealed
letter in peace. Ii contained u five
pound note and three words, written in
feeble hand: with Lucy's love"
1t was the last proof of her friends
thoughtful care. She kissed the
written words and put the treasure in a
safe place. The old horse logged on;
the old driver chccrcd him in husky
tone, and Olive sat silently watching a
few white clouds travelling slowly
across the fresh blue sky. Here and
there, in n cottage garden, there was Il
cherry tree in full bloom, lifting up n
dome of silver blosSom but the spring
was advancing with tardy footsteps,
and only few flowers were scattered
over the eXpcctant earth.
They came ut last to the railway
station, and Olive watched for the train
with a throbbing heart. The waiting was
soon over, her seat was taken, and she
was speeding on and on to her new life
before she had quite realized that she
had done with the old.
Some minutes went by before she
was composed enough to observe her
fellow travellers; but presently Il baby,
sitting on the lap of rosy mother,
gave a crow of delight at the basket of
flowers. Smiles and pleasant words
followed, but Olive was in no mood for

and ont all the advantage. Of living IN

and out all the advantages Of living in
. wide sphere. And you VIII have me
20 teach you everything"
Olive drew long breath. She would
have given anything for the power of
glancing up into his face with her old
frank smile the smile that he had
scared away. She could only murmur
something which was drowned in the
rattle of the cab, and he thought again
how dull and commonplace she had
grown.
II was well that the drive was not
long, for it was becoming intolerablc
to them both. The Gathering cab
stopped at last in the middle of a
crowded thoroughfare, and Michael
told her that this was the Strand and
here was Uncle Wakes shop.
Out of the shop door bolted an eager
lad, head foremost, and received Olives
box upon his willing back. She her
self seemed TO stumble blindly after

conversation. The baby soon crowcd
the other people were silent.
The quiet girl, sitting in the corner,
lost herself in n blissful dream of her
London life. 1t would all begin this very
evening. She had not seen Michael for
n whole year, and presently he would
meet her with eager eyes and loving
words, and take her under his protec-
ton. There would never be any more
partings; and Jane, poor Jane, she
must be made happy too Olive felt
that she and Michael were strong
enough to manage the love affairs of
half the kingdom, and bring them To n
satisfactory ending, Surely, oh surely,
the train was slow.

THE SUN.

Thirty years ago we hated the sun.
Our dwellings were shaded with heavy
trees. Thick curtains and heavy blinds
shut out all access of light to the best
rooms in the house. People lived in
perpetual shade, and SUSPICION of tan
upon the female face was considered q
mark Of disgrace. A student was as
proud of his pallor as of his learning.
Now all this is changed. People have
begun to learn that nature is the best
nurse, and that what she needs is as
sistance and not guidance. So when
you are attacked by indigestion the best
remedy is to cleanse the system Of all
and nature will do the rest.
To this end nothing is so good as the
Laxative Gum Drops. They are mild
and gentle, and they assist nature in
her work without violence or pain.
There is nothing delete-ious in themy
and they can be taken by the weakest
invalid without any sense of discomfort
and without the nauseating sensation
that accompany taking pills. They are
put up in two sizes. The small size
contains twelve gum drops and cost l0c;
the large size contains from thirty-six
to forty gum drops and cost 25c. Get
them of any dealer.

struction by lighthouses, and the
damage is found to be very heavy. and
a list, believe, of 100 species was re-
ceived. many being valued game birds
and nearly all others Wetl-knOWn insect
destroyers. a
Thousands of birds are killed each
season by the light in the Goddess Of
Liberty in New York barbor, as they
migrate to or from the north, and all
tower lights throughout the country are
more or less destructive, according to
their location. But these greater
dangers in a few cases are as nothing
compared to the generally dispersed,
combined lesser dangers Of the innum-
cradle city electric lights.
Ordinarily we do not have the de-
struction brought to our notice, as it is
of slight Importance to most persons,
and the comparatively few dead or
wounded birds found during the spring
flight are barely considered by those
do not think deeply, although in the
aggregate it means vast destruction. It
is only occasionally, when the dead and
f1uttering birds lie thickly that news
paper notice brings the people to a
momentary realization of the severity.
One season when a grand migration of
Warblers was taking place and a heavy
fog came on, most inauspicious time
for night travel for the impatient fly
ers, thousands were killed in this coun-
ty, mainly by the lights. One morn
ing in early May over $50 dead and
wounded birds were gathered on a few
acres of ground, and nine were taken
under or near an electric light. Over
thirty species, largely warblers and
other small birds, were brought me for
Identification It may be safely esti-
mated that fully 5000 birds are annu-
ally destroyed in Michigan by electric
lights and wires.
