she used to be. Ono day. when his
mother and sister were taking quiet
half hour before dressing for dinner, he
came into the apartment carrying an
umbrella.
81 say, mother, this umbrellas been
in the stand for a month. The fellow it
belonged to has forgotten all about it, I
expect; don't you think l might have
''lsn't it yours ?" said Mrs. Brace
glrdle. 81 gave you silver handled
one last year" y
ooh, lost that long ago." replied
the youth coolly, "and | NAV as we'll
have this instead. It's like mine, but
ever so much sweller There's name
engraved on it, but | could have that
scratched out"
Let me see the name, Harry" said
Mrs. Bracegirdle
She took it and road "Fortescue."
An odd look came over her face. She
said notheng for moment, but seemed
plunged in thought Then rose and
went down stairs to tho dining room.
She rang the bell, and the stern-eyed
maid appeared.
ELIZA" she said. "can you remember
the appearance Of that young man who
came one day and asked for On umbrella Z.
He came twice, | think you said, and
asked For me the second time. De-
scribe him if you can"
"He was quite n gentleman to look
at, ma'am," said Eliza, "but this sort
mostly are. Tall and broad shouldered
and military looking, with blue eyes,
very short, fair hair and long, heavy,
fair mustache."
THAT will do. Eliza,' said Mrs.
Bracegirde, "You can 60"
Then she called Harry down to hcr.
Harry" she said, IL want you to
go to Captain Fortescue's rooms aud
take this note aad the umbrella. SEQ
him If you possibly can and try to ex-
plain about this unhappy umbrella and
that stupid Eliza"
Then she told Harry the stor,
which he laughed immensely.
Nov, you must not laugh; but think
how you can do the thing nicely, Harry
You can manage it admirably If you
choose. It is too absurd to put on paper.
And make Captain Fortescue promise to
come to lunch, just to show that he bears
no malice
Harry put on his best manners and
accomplished his task we'll, though he
felt much aggrioved at having to give
up tho umbrella. Captain Fortescue
came to lunch, and this time Eliza ad-
mitted him aud blushed as she did 30.

THE INDIAN SUMMER.

THE INDIAN SUMMER.
There is minging in the sky,
OF mist and golden light,
Like thoughts of heavens futurty,
Half shadowy and half bright.
There is mournful hush about
The once gay laughing earth,
No out. door song, no harvest shout,
No sound of ringing mirth.
The woods are dark, the gardens bare,
The wind with htful breath,
Sings softly through the trembling air,
A requiem of death.
Autumn lies dead upon his bier
The hectic glow is past
From the wan face of the sweet year,
And she is dying fast.
She hath numbered her remaining hours,
And laid to quiet rest
Her children, the bright leaves and flowers,
That were nourshed on her breast.
And she hath parted with her friends;
They have now all passed away,
But one, who now in silence bends,
To watch her slow decay;
The Indian Summer, grave not sad,
With mild countenance,
Serenely bright, as If it had
An Unborn radiance.
Like good minister, who tries,
When other friends are gone,
To shed sweet peace DER one who dies,
To comfort those who mourn
So, when red autumn's sun has set,
And winter comes like night,
The Indian summer fingers yet,
With u soft, solemn light,
And doth sacred stiffness keep,
While the cold year sinks low,
Til peacefully she falls asleep,
Wrapt in her shroud Of snow.

recently, says the N. A. q. Cable, the
Emperor set out at dsybleak from his palace
with numerous and magnificent train Of conr.
tiers and others. Before breakfast the En-
peror arrived at the sbrines OF the DEITY pre-
siding over agriculture, and his Majesty
stopped to offer np hts thanksgiving and sacri-
fees. After changing his dress the morning
repast was served, at the end of which the EN-
peror proce ded to the field. az the four cor
ners OF which were erected four paviIions where
the seeds Of wheat and other cereals were
placed.
In the center were numbers of magnificeptly
attired conrtiers, each holding aloft a maNy-
c0lored flag. while on the side OF the passage
were scores OF agedIand white aired farmers,
each having In his hand some agricultural
implement. Placing his left hand on the pillow,
and holding the whip In hia right hand,
the Emperor began the ceremony OF the
occasion. By Encouragement the officers
did their allotted share, some welding
the agricultural implements, while others
scattered seeds out the baskets as if sowing,
while the Emperor busted himself with the
pillow, which was hitched to richly caparisoned
bullock. draped in yellow and led by two OF the
Emper0rs bodyeuards. On the Emperor finish
Ing his round at the plow the three Princes
were ordered to 20 through the performance.

turn. after which the performance closed.
Having received the greeting of the officers,
the emperor returned to his palace.

born and educated in this city. While no
member of his Immediate family adopted
art as a profession. they were all artistic

home life was tinged with the love for
music. painting. and all things beautiful in
nature.
