fools paradise, dreams wild dreams OF
somehow winning his way to fortune
over every obstacle which lies between
Gladys and himself.
Pretty and imperious, she wants him
always at her side. Can it be. he
wonders, in a bewilderment of bliss,
that she is learning to care for him,
even ever SO little, in return?
With the first faint flush of autumn
that tinges the creepers on the old
stone wall, Mrs. Delaney, who has
fingered at the farm because ''dear
Gladys seemed so happy there" an
Eounces that the time is at hand for
their departure.
To Joe the possibility of life without
Gladys means humiliation.
''Wi1 you ride to-day?" he asks the
girl he blindly worships. for he feels
that now or never will come the chance
to speak what is in his heart
1T looks like rain" says Gladys,
and yet-our last ride! We can't af-
ford to lose it, can we, Joe? Saddle
Brown Bess for me, then, and we will
have one more glorious gallop together
DER hill and dalep'
They take their glorious gallop, and
are riding slowly toward home. Joe
has not yet spoken. His mar ticulate
passion can find no fitting words.
What a queer world this is" says
Gladys, lightly. 1--WE have been rid
ing together, you and 1, all summer
long, and now-this is the end! We
shall probably never see, never even
hear of each other again.
Joe's lips are white as he faces her.
Life would be worth nothing if I
thought that" he stammers miserably.
Gladys laughs.
81 do not mean to stay here-I hate
the farm he goes on rapidly I'm
going away as soon as can, to win my
way as others have done and make my
self worthy of-of the one love"
''Ah, yes-Mary," she says, with idle
interest. ST guessed it from the first.
And now, to return your confidence
I'm going to be married soon myself
Mr.. Howard has been in Europe on
business all summer, and that's why
we came to this quiet, out-of-the-way
little place; for, of course" with a light
laugh, engaged girls are supposed not
to care any more for mems society.
But, Joe, if you really leave the farm
you must come to US, and we'll help
you all we can. All, see the rain is
coming across the hills! Come; we
must ride hard or take drenching."
Does Gladys know? Is she willfully
cruel, or only cruelty kind? Whichever
she may be, she has given poor Joe's
hopes their death wound, and with a
smiling face.
The storm continues and increases in
violence, until at mig htfan it has be-
come furious tempest. Some of the
Trailer farm buildings are unroofed.
The little river is so swollen that il
threatens to burst its bounds.

happy girl she was two mon this ago
for Joe he's passed her by with wild
unseeing eyes, and has gone out, with
his weight of trouble, into the uproai

AT noon, next day, there comes a lul
in the storm, and Gladys, wrapped in {
large cloak, runs out for breath O.

A good advocate can make pleasur.

Below we publish a little poem
that was handed to us by a friend
of Samuel Larsons and which was
found on his person after he was
struck by lightning, on June the
Goth.
81 wonder Why some hearts must
ache,
While others are to pleasure born,
While some the fairest roses take,
And Others only feel the thorn,
l wonder why that diamonds rare
Are scattered around the happiest feet;
When by sweat and toll the worthy
poor
Strive for the meagre food they eat?
l wonder why the fairest flowers
Are always first to fade away
Our brightest dreams amid the bow
cfS
Must vanish like closing day?
l wonder why the sw ectcst smiles
Most often hide the saddcst heart,
And why, when beauty most beguilcs,
Should oft conceal the coquette's art?
wonder why that sorrow oft
Must follow in the wake of love,
And treacherous words drop low and
soft
As angel whispers from above3
1 wonder why the wolf of guilt
In close communion oft we see
The forced companion of the lamb
OF innocence and purity?
l wonder, in our other life,
Will pleasure oft be feigned,
Or will those things he cleared away
With paradise regaincdf"
