sea Of glass Give this woman a home
among those amaranthine blooms and be-
tween those fountains tossing in the ever
lasting sunlight. Give her a couch canopied
with rainbows TO pay her for all the IA
sigues Of wifehood and motherhood and
housekeeping. from which she had no rest
for 20 years.
~Cupbearers Of heaven, give these newly
arrived souls from earth the costliest bever-
ages, and roll TO their door the grandest
charfots, and hang on their walls the sweet
est harps that ever thrummed to fingers
seraphic Give to them raptureon rapture,
celebration on celebration, jubilee on jubi-
lee, heaven on heaven. They had a hard
time on earth earning livelihood, or nurs-
ing sick children, or waiting on querulous
old age, or battling falsehoods that were
told about them, or were compelled to work
after they got shortbreathed and rheumatic
and dimsighted.

prepared for this heavenly realm by the
mission Of the frosts stand up and wave
their sceptersl" And looked, and behold
nine-tenths of the ransomed rose to theiI
feet, and nine-tenths Of the scepters swayed
to and fro in the light of the sun that never
sets, and then understood far better thar
ever did before that trouble comes fol

PROGRESSIVE LOVE,

remember fair Florence, my very first love,
And all that told her was true, every word,
But my love was as swift as the wings of q
dove,
And ere she loved me in the distance heard
The sweet voice Of dear Blanche-she was best
of them all,
And keep her blest memory fresh in my
heart.
But the roses Of summer must fade In the fall,
As the night follows day, SO we met but to
part.
Then Emma and Isabelle. Mary and Name,
Each in turn were loved lightly, and Agnes
and May.
My song every summer would bear new name
But these, like tbs others, soon drifted away.
And then came a season of sadness for me,
A season in which tried hard to forget
The marvellous musical voice of Marie
And the faraway, oceanlike eyes of Lizette.
Fen as the gay candle fly fiirts with the flame
/ played round the hearts of the maidens
knew.
My song every season would have new name
And others would fade from my mind like
the dew.
Now look at the past as 'twere all in mist,
For my bosom's own queen is enthroned OF
my knee.
remember one name, one alone in the list.
As gaze in the beautiful eyes of Marie.
-Cy Warman in New York Sun.

And it Is on record that she did Wcr1
the daring man.
In spite Of all this opposing element IN
his flock, Mr.. Haviland could not help
thinking how dull life would be without
n certain flower whose perfume he alone
seemed TO have discovered.
One bright September day he walled
over 70 Aunt Dorothy's little cottage.
intending to invite Nellie to accompany
him upon an errand Of mercy, AS he
reached the gate he stopped a moment.
The front door was wide open. Nellie.
dressed in pink calico. with cap Of the
came material only partly concealing
her fluffy brown hair, was busily en-
gagged with broom and duster in the
hall. There was happy look upon her
innocent face. When, as il birdlike,
she could not restrain her JOY. the ruby
lips puckered bewitchingly, and the
notes Of q hymn trilled forth with star
Ting clearness and truth.
Suddenly the unconscious warbler was
electrified into silence by the sharp
words, Perfectly shocking. isn't it7"
Glancing up, she saw Aunt Dorothy
standing with watering can in hand as
if preparing to water herOwn feet, whic5
seemed rooted to the ground. 3
She was staring at Mr. Haviland, who
leaned upon the gate with puzzled ex-
preston upon his face. I
Not waiting to hear his answer Nellie
fed to her own room, where she indulged
in that which seldom spoiled her happy
face-a good "cry." For she doubted
not that she had forfeited her place in
the minister's esteem.
She was not surprised, then, when
Aunt Dorothy met her with: "Now you
have done it! My goodness. / don't
know what to do with you! You're
enough to try saints patiencer
But Nellie was surprised when her
aunt handed her note from Mr.. Havi-
land containing his request to accom-
pany him to the house of some poor peo-
pie who lived several miles away. *
"Shall go? she asked her aunt.
"Of course? No use making matters
worse by refusing"
So Nellie said she would accompany
the minister, though her sensitive nature
rebelled against the trial.
After packing basket of food for the
poor people, Nellie waited in nervous
anxiety for her escort. When he ar
rived, she quietly allowed him to assist
: her into the trap, where she sat almost
dumb, panied expression upon her
face.
; "What is the matter with you today?'
asked the minister as they trundled
through the green fields.
Nellie trembled at his kindly tones
but she would not be drawn into con
versation until
But there, no matter! What right
have we to intrude? Suffice it to say
that the next day Mr.. Haviland asked
Aunt Dorothy for Mellie's hand.
That worthy dame could not help say
ing, "But, Mr.. Haviland, she is whis
tling girl, and you know
"There, there, don't say word agains
the future mistress of the parsonager
he interrupted.
And SO, amid shocked Gin ptown's sur
: prised talk, the doomed old maid of q
4 winters was converted into happy brid
of 20 summers.
: Rumor has it that Miss Smith is prac
ticing the much abused art of whistling

A WHISTLING GIRL.

Gimptown was an old fashioned burg
full of old fashioned people, not one Of
whom pretended to deny that Nellie
Rose was the prettiest, liveliest girl in
the place.
Now, although Gimptown folk had re-
luctantly succumbed to the inroads Of
progress insomuch that they admitted
there were no witches they still clung
persistently to wise old saws. Why not
call them the wornout old saws and rele-
gate them to the rubbish heap of other
bygone misconceptions?
Thus it happened that while other
girls were "spoke for" as soon as they
came of age sweet Nellie Rose wasted
her sweetness upon transient lovers.
Joshua Jones, tho most appreciative
of these, had remarked to his mother:
"Now, nanny, don't believe there's a
thing wrong with Nellie. like her
mighty we'll"
'Gracious, JOSH" said she, holding up
her hands i'll horror. "If you're a-gettin
stuck on that gal, you had just better
get over it as quick as possible. My
grief! A whistling gal in the Jonesfam-
lily! Ughw
So honest Josh put aside his sentiment
by muttering, Eyes, Isuppose 'whistling
gals and growing hens is as true today
as it ever was"
/ Josh was right. This old saw is just
as true today as it was when the lunatic
of long ago manufactured it. Accord
ingly he married "good housekeeper''
who never whistled, and Nellie seemed

He Found His Man.

When the $50 o'clock w. & E. G..
motor arrived at Elm Grove last night,
viii Linton was at the station, with
his sleeves rolled up, inQuirlng If there
were any "scrappers" aboard. Will
liam had been having tussle with
John Barleycorn, and came out second
best. He found no one pugilistically
inclined on the motor, nor in the crowd
which surrounded him. Finding that
he could not get fight, he crossed the
track and struck George Rinkus, a boy
l6 or II years Of age. He gave George
an affectionate little punch with the toe
OF his shoe, just "for luck" He found
his man in George. Rinkus turned
about and landed strong right on his
nose, following it up with one or two In
the eye. This was enough for Linton
for the time being. His eye was dis
colored, and his nose bled profusely
He hunted a pump and washed away
tho blood. At last accounts he was en-
deavoring to renew hostllities with
George. No arrests were made.

Working An Old Racket.

Five well-dressed strangers blew into
town with the sharpers who follow the
Fairs, last weeks. Their layout con-
sisted of three English walnut shells
and little black ball. Their racket
has been worn threadbare, hut they
managed to rope in few "6ves. "
Thursday afternoon they set up stand
at the west end of the pontoon bridge
in West Wheeling, and stopped every
man who passed on his way to the Fair
grounds. They were unsuccessful
there, however, and after an hours
hard work, failing to entlce any
strangers, they "closed up shop"
