A Pretty Girl station Agent.

Passengers over the Rumford Falls
and Buckfeld road always noticed upon
the platform at East Peru a plump and
pretty girl who wears the regalia of the
station agent. She wears cap with
gold lace and brass shield, and on the
shield is ''Station Agent" This is Miss
Lille Howard, and she has had charge
of the station at East Peru for some
time. She is attentive to her duties. The
trainmen always have smile and Q
pleasant word for her, and many aErum-
mer vainly attempts to appropriate a
share of her smile as the train whisks
past. 'Tis needless to comment on the
neatness Of East Peru's station.--Lewis-

How Lightning Kills.

The cause Of death by lightning is the
sudden absorption of the electric cur
rent. When thundercloud which is
highly charged with positive electricity
hangs over any certain place, the earth
beneath it becomes abnormally charged
with the negative electric current, and a
man, animal or other object standing or
lying directly beneath also partales of
the last mentioned influence. If, while
the man, animal or other object III in
this condition, discharge takes place
from the cloud above, the restoration of
the equilibrium will be sudden and vio-
lent, or, in language that we can all un-
derstand, the negative current from the
earth will rush up to join the positive
cloud current, and in passing through
the object which separates the two cur
rents, if it be an animate being, will do
so with such force as to almost invari
ably produce instant death.
According to the above, which seems
a tenable hypothesis, to say the least,
a fellow is really struck" by the ground
current and not by the forked fury from
above at all-St. Louis Republic.

LOVED AND WAITED.

Mme. Novar reclined on lounge in
she magnificent boudoir of her Moscow
house. Between her lips was a small
cigarette, and from the salver by her side
she from time to time raised tiny cup
of coffee to her mouth.
"Tonight l shall toll him ALL" she
murmured, throwing one hand beneath
her head and gazing at the wreaths of
smoke as they curled upward. sit is
scarcely fair to deceive the boy longer.
He loves me passionately, and well,
Martha Novar is also in love-" She
knocked the ash Of her cigarette into a
silver tray.
At that moment man entered the
room. He was clothed in the uniform of
an officer in the imperial guard and was
as handsome asa man well can be.
:'Ah, good evening"" he said gayly.
'You see have not kept you waiting to-
night" He threw down his shake on
the table and drew his chair close to the
lounge.

Then, after slight pause: Il have some
thing of great Importance to tell you to-
night-something that my cowardice
has prevented me from telling You long
before this, and for which Ihave to suf-
fer by marring the happiness of such a
ime."
She threw away her cigarette impet-
uously, and then continues:
''It is about Ivan Novar."
"Do mot talk of him now. Heis dead and
should be forgotten. What reason have
you for speaking of him to me? Today
you are his widow; tomorrow you will
be the wife of Stanislos Feovitch."
'sYou misunderstood me. My hus-
hand is dead, but did not lose him by
death. He married me because was
wealthy, because had many servants
and was rich in gold, but three months
after the wedding he went away from
me to live with the woman he loved.
He never loyed me, nor did / ever love
him, yet believed did at the time. /

WHOM THE GODS LOVE.

You say that being 30 old
Twas time for him to die?
Rings not your comment cold
And even inhuman? Why
Should tenderer tears be shed
When death lays young lives low.
Spared years of sorrow and fret,
Spared ages overthrow
When young, we are called away.
We shirk untold regret;
For austere Time will slay
Not merely ourselves, but yet
Brand with authentic sign
His despotism elsewhere--
Drape wisps OF silvering hair
Ger eyes beloved-plow line
And furrow on treasured cheeks.
Whom the gods love die young"
All, mel there wisdom's tongue
With sovereign accent speaks!
Pity the old who die.
The young behind them leave
Such bounteous grief whereby
Fate bids they should not grieve.
Heart racked with many q sigh.
Wounded with many scar.
Pity the old who die.
The young are happier far.

with the intention of handing it herself

That evening she had an engagement
at Nine. Zernovo's. There were more
lines on the forehead and cheeks of the
image reflected in her mirror than she
had ever noticed before. The gray hairs
stood out with distinctness that she
had never realized hitherto. After bend
ing close to the glass, she stood erect
sharply.
"What am I doing? This childlike
vanity is foolish. But where is that
beauty which brought my ruin. Where
is the luster Of my eyes or the roses of
my cheeks? All, it is sad that while the
heart is still young the flesh should have
aged so much"
She went down the staircase and en-
tered her carriage, driving to the house
of her friend.
There were large number of guests

self once more and played and enchanted
the company with her captivating voice.
There was one song which on this
particular night she sang with all the
fervor of her heart. 1t was "The Sleigh
Bells" duet of which she sang but one
part, while no one accompanied her.
People wondered at her strange freak,
but she laughingly told them it was her
whim. Never had she been SO gay since
the time of that terrible parting.
During the second verse @ tall, hand
some man, dressed in the uniform of the
Imperial Gdard, walked quickly over to
the hostess and whispered:
''Will you bring Mime. Novar over to
my wifep I should like to introduce
them to one another"
When the song was inished-the one
In which he had so often accompanied
her five years ago-Mme. Zernova led
her across the room to where Stanislos
stood by the side of his wife.
Madame, let me introduce to you a
new arrival in st. Petersburg, Captain
Feovitch."
There was an awkward silence for a
moment, while Mime. Novar went ghast-
ly pale and pressed her lips tightly to-
gether.
"Allow me to introduce to you my
wife," he said, holding out his hand to-
ward a lovely young girl, who glanced
shyly at the woman before her.
"Let me congratulate you. You have
indeed sweet wife"
The words were slowly and painfully
uttered.
When the others had moved away, he
said: "You did not write to me. l wait

He spoke with the same frank, boyish
voice that had poured out it's torrent of
passionate love in her ears five years ago.
She refrained from telling him the
whole truth now-now she was free--and
how she had waited all these years to
claim him. She said nothing about all
this.
Some one was playing a dreamy waltz,
while amid the throng Of dancers was

had fallen and cast her eyes round the

to forget me. You are young and have

not ruin your peace of mind by refusing
to see reason through your love glamoured
eyes"
Her voice trembled, for the effort to
speak calmly when her very soul was torn
asunder had caused her cheeks to blanch
and her lips to culver. For some time
he pleaded with her, implored her to
make the uniop with him possible and
honorable by the intervention of the
law, or at least to hold out some hope Of
all obstacles being eventually removed.
But she told him with firmness that they
must part forever.

"As you wish. We are both young and

She shook her head sadly.
"Not even the love bear to you can
induce me to unsay what have already
said.''
"Then we must say goodby."
All the coldness went out Of her heart
at sweep when those bitter words fell
upon her ears. She looked full into his
eyes and said falteringly:

key that unlocked those chains which
had bound her LIES happiness for 80
