sect up and cease thy outcry. The
woman was wise. Thou wouldst have
gone had she not left thee. Here is
remedy will leave with thee, which
will cure thy hurt"
And, behold! he left him year.
Then, following the woman in hot
haste, he came up with her as she sat
upon a stone by the wayside, weeping.
For why didst thou leave him? ?"
asked Time, gently.
"At the bidding of thy brother" she
answered, ''who came to me threaten
ing that he would haunt my good lord,
to my undoing, did not leave him.
Go, before Love be slain he said, thus
may'st thou hope one day to return I"
Time smiled
Here is a remedy I will leave with
thee for thy hurt" he said.
And, behold! he left her year.
And at the end of that space, Time
came unto the man, and 10! he found
him feasting and rejoicing. And round
about him were beautiful women, and
one there was more beautiful than all
the OIneTS WHO TSSucu ucT uSdu upon
his shoulder and upon whom he gazed
affectionately.
Time stopped to look at his hurt,
and found it healed, not even scar
remaining.
Softly the graybeard sped in the
night to the place where he had left
the woman, but the stone by the way
side was bare. The Night Wind
moaned down the road.
Spake the Wind:
Whom seelest thou, o Timer" and
Time made answer:
"a woman whom one year ago I left
here weeping"
"Come with me-" sighed the Night
Wind. And he led him to a solemn
place of yews, and, pointing to a grave
stone, said, softly: She lies there"
And Time, STOPPING, saw that of his
gift she had taken but 80 days, for a
mightier than he had come and COM
forted her-even Eternity. N. Y.

and smiling-but bitterly-answered:
81 see nothing"
But daily the mark grew, and daily
he asked her: what is this?" and
she, gazing into her mirror, said: 81
see naught."
''Then is thy mirror false!" he cried,
in anger, 81 will break It'll"
And shifting it upon the ground, he
broke it, and she wept, saying:
"Alackl Why is my lord angry?"
But the sight of her tears .maddened
him, and he went abroad.
And she dried her eyes, signing, and
called her maidens about her, and as
she sat among them, she sang little
song about the death of Love, nor
hearkened to their merry chatter.
Now the man in his walk met gray
beard bearing a scythe upon his shout
der, and peering in hedge and by
way, in ditch and tree.
"What scekest thou?" asked the
man.
81 seek one of my brethren" the gray
beard made answer. Hast thou seen
him?"

The Intended Compliment.

In an old-fashioned home of New Or
leans there was company at dinner, and
the ladies were discussing the woman
question. A gentleman present, after
hearing all the pros and cons, facetious-
ly remarked that two preachers were
discussing the same problem, recently,
in his hearing, and they both agreed
that it portended evil, and that women
were responsible for most of the evil in
the world-in fact, that women were
worse than men," One of the ladies
Indignantly retorted: Indeed they
are not; women are the salt of the
earth" "Dat's so, honey" put in old
Aunt Susan from the kitchen; "dat's de
Bible truf, for shore. Women is desalt
oh de earth. Just think OBJ Lots wife"
And everybody laughed at the sudden
and unexpected application of the old
Bible story.-N. o. Picayune.

May, am called Time, but he is

The man frowned.
"Your brother does not abide here
abouts," he said.
"Methought 1 saw him wander hither
but while since" mumbled the old
man. One with whom he hath enmity
dwelleth here, and doubtless he hath
come to seek him."
And whom may that be?" inquired
the man.
"Men call him Love-" said Time, and
his dry laugh ratified in his throat.
Safety ldlleth Love when he gets eE-
trance to where he abideth, and bury
the slain"
"And how doth he get entrance?"
asked the man, thinking backward.

leaning for a moment upon his scythe.
"Sometimes through the eyes of a
Jealous woman, for she is WEAKNESS
unto the soul of man; sometimes
through the foolish eyes of man who,
seeing much beauty, becometh blind to
tit; and oftenest through the heart of
her who is faithful, but protesteth her
love too greatly, for the great love of
woman is also WEAKNESS unto the
soul of man."
And the graybeard gazed piercingly
upon the man, then, cackling in shrill
laughter, he went on his way.
Then hurriedly the man sought the
woman, but he found the house empty
and her maidens running about in
search of her. And she was nowhere to
be found. When last seen, they told
him, she was talking to a stranger
who lately had lurked about the gates;
a creature of vast stature, with weary
eyes, and giant frame, upon whose
brow was writ the sign: Safety"
Then the man, clapping his hand to
his head, fell upon the ground, crying
out that she had found the curse, not
he; that she had slain Love, not he;
that she was false, not he.
Get up, fool" quoth graybeard
in the crowd about, touching the strick-
en- man contemptuously with his foot.

But afar off, the ardor of his passion
grew, and he ragged exceedingly.
"Why should thus dread a mere
phantom ?" he asked of himself. 81 will
go forth and do him battle"
But as he drew near to his love the
ghostly thing was there, between them,
looking with weary eyes into the
depths of his soul. And ever the man
fed, affrighted.
One day the woman came to him.
Her face was radiant with love, and all
his soul leaped within him at sight of
her beauty.
''Why dost thou shun me thusp" she
murmured, laying her arm about his
throat. "Lol / have waited for thy
coming and hearkened for thy voice,
but these things came not. Therefore
am here, for great love drew me-"
And he, looking deep into her eyes,
found delight there, and laughed aloud
In his Joy. "I was feared of shape
that ever came betwixt thee and me in
the hour of my approach" he said to
her.
And she laughed, asking: "What
shapeP"
"A giant figure" he made answer,
shat doomed over thee, shadowing thy
face, and upon its brow was writ the
word Safety"
"Then keep thee from me, since thou
dreadst him, for he puts a mark on
woman's beauty In mems eyes, they
say" said the woman, grayely, though
methinks thou hadst little to fear
from him, once thou hadst reached
me-" she added, proudly.
But she pondered.
And he, being mad with love and
enthralled by her witchery, caressed
her many times, praising her beauty,
and he abode with her. And she grew
even fairer in his sight, though in her
mirror she sometimes saw weary eyes
and smile that was bitter, for his
words about Safety" had sunk deep
in her heart, and she was ever watching
for the shape.
The days sped swiftly.
Once, in the dawn, he looked upon her
and noted mark upon her beauty.
And waking her he asked:
"What is this2''
