In the house, big hive of work peo-
ole, situated in the Rue Delambre,
where for six months Tony Robec had
occupied room, everyone thought that
he was a widowe,:. He could not have
been widower very long, for his little
bov Adrien, who lived with hfm and
who was always well cared for, was
not more than six years old. Yet nei-
ther of them wore mournin3!

was employed as a cornpositor in a
printing house in the quarter Latin,
left his room with the child still half
asleep on his should er He.left the lit

selves up in their garret, and nothing
more was seen of them until the follow

The xind-hearted gossips were full Of
pity for the poor fellow. He couldn't
be more than forty and was still good
looking, although sad and pale, and
with Silver streaks in his black beard.
Behind his back they said: That man
ought to marry again"
They wished to make his acquaint-

Certainly Tony had been very de-
voted to his wife and would not be con-
soled now that he had lost her-but he
was not widower
His life had been simple, but not by
any means happy. Although a con-
scientious workman he was not partic-
ularly good at his trade, and therefore
until he was thirty he had not succeed
ed in making a tolerably good living,
and could not think of marrying.
When he did resolve to marry he ought
to have chosen sensible, economical
wife, who had known want as he had.
But love does not occupy itself with
such trifes. Tony lost his head over a
pretty, light-minded, light-hearted
hover girl of nineteen, honest doubt
less, but frivolous, and thinking more
OF her toilet than of anything else un-

ever, that she could make a dress out

cruelty deceived him. Where is she

he
On arriving at the grave he started,
for at theafoot OF it were strewn sew
eral little playthings such as the poor
give to their children-trumpet, jack
in-the-box and a whistle. They had
evidently just been placed there, for
they were quite new.
''Oh, what pretty playthings!" cried
little Adrien, ,excitedlv But his father,
having detected scrap of paper pinned
to one of the toys, opened it and read:
For Adrien, from his brother Felix,
who is now with the. child Christ
Suddenly he found the boy pressing
against him and murmuring: Mamma. I"
There, only few PAGES away, under a
clump of cypress trees, knelt the
mother. She was clad in wretched
dress and thin shawl Her eyes were
sunken and her checks hollow and
pale. She was looking at her husband,
| and her clasped hands were stretched
toward him in supplication. Tony
pushed the boy gently toward her,
saying: "Adrien, go and kiss your
| mother"
The poor creature strained the child
| convulsively to her breast ard covered
| him with kisses. Then rising and turn
ing toward her husband, but. always
with the air of a suppliant, she said:
''How good of your
! But he, already at her side, said
huskily, almost harshly: Don't talk.
Take my arm"
1t is not far from the cemetery to the
R1e Delambre, and they walked quick
ly and without uttering word. The
child, engrossed in his newlyfound
treasure, trotted along at their side,
thinking only of his toys.
| When they reached the house the
door-keeper was standing on the steps
Madam" said Tony to her, this is
my wife. She has been six months in
the country with her mother who was

with me-"
When they reached the room Tony
made his wife sit down in the only arm
chair, placed the boy in her lap, and
opened drawer from which he took an
old cardboard box. Out of this he took
the wedding ring, which he pressed on
his wife's finger. Then, without a
word of reproach or bitterness about
the sorrowfnl past, silently, gravely,
with the overfiowing generosity of a
simple, childlike heart, he gently
pressed his lips to her forehead as the
seal Of his forgiveness. Translated fo1

In years gone by Ireland had sacred
oak dedicated to st. Columbian, one eff
the peculiarities of the tree being that
whoever carried small bit of the wood
or bark in his mouth would never meet
with violent death, it being especially
ef1icacious in saving Christian martyrs
from the block. 1t was known through.
out the British Isles as the Holy Oak
of kenmare. After the lapse of many
centuries this sacred oak was uprooted
by storm, after which it was said to
be guarded by angels to keep heretics
from gathering the wood for fuel. At
last a wicked tanner "barked'' one of
it's largest limbs and tanned some
leather, which he made into shoes for
himself, imagining that such relics
would bring him wealth and power.
He wore them but once, however, but

GRIN AND BEAR 1T.
is not a motto fine as some.

aTis not motto fine as some,
Perhaps, in terms high sounding;
Rut as from coal rare colors come,
Truth richly worth expounding
Lies in this adage-truth sublime
And would here declare 1t;
A,ndif a bore you deem my rhyme,
Why, simply "grle and bear it"
When cherished projects come to naught,
Or pain embitters pleasure:
When banks and bonds you tirmest thought
Bring loss, to boarded treasurer
When frie nds forsake, and foes increase
Put or though hard to wear it,
Asunr.y smile OF perfect peace
Twill help-Iust grin and bear it,.
Wien woes come thick and still more thick
Disasters gathering daily;
when hope deferred the heart makes sick,
While round you, jesting gayly,
The world knows not how sad your soul,
Dreams not what griefs do teartt
Keep over self q calm control,
And bravely grin and bear ii"
All, meath these homely words there lie
Vast mines of deepest meaning;
Whole tones Of sound philosophy
Well worth most careful cleaning;
Yet not mere stoic's lore urge
Forever forswear it
Let earth's and heavens best wisdom merge
Trust God, then grin and hear it,"

An American Sardine.

The United States fish commission
calls attention to the food value of the
anchovy of the waters of the North
west, which, it is predicted will dis
place the Sardinian sardlne as a small
fish canned in oil. 1t is said to far
surpass the sardine in flavor and rich
ness. Russian fishermen on Puget
sound have already tried the expert
ment of putting these anchovies up
with vinegar and spices, and have
found a ready market for them. 81
have known them," Mr.. Swan says,
''to be in such masses at Port Had
lock, at the head of Port Townsend
bay, that they could be dipped up
with common water bucket, but as
there has been no demand for them,
the fisherman do not consider them of
value, and when hauling their nets for
smelt they generally let the anchovy
escape" " The anchovy of the sound
Is seldom more than six inches long,
and il is much better adapted for can
ming than the Eastport (Me. variety
of "sardine," which is either young
herring or the small fry of other fish.
A test of the favors of the Pacific
coast anchovy as fish canned i'll oil
was recently made, and experts pro.
