"Ydu are all very good and kind TO me

Elsie looked up quickly. 81 shouldn't

isn't there always?-while there Is
good TO be done and evil to be pre-
vented? You found one thing yester-
day"
Eyes, II I can only live long enough TO
set it right"
She caught at the hopelessness in his
voice, and answered il out of a heart
full OF pity. You oughtn't TO look at
IL in that way. Why can't you turn Mr..
Kilgrow's trouble, and everything else.
into so many stepping stones to carry
you across TO where you can feel the
solid ground under your feet again2"
There was a swift undertow of in
ference in her question that carried
him quickly out into the sea OF inn
pulse. 'Do you really mean that? Do
you think should be justified in taking
the help need wherever find it?"
why not? Isn't II right and neces-
sary that you should? Father says II
we will look around us wei always find
something 10 make bridges out Of, no
matter how deep OF how wide the
stream Is"
"And you think there is hope for me;
/ don't mean for n mere existence
that alone isn't worth fighting for-but
that / could win some of the better
things II / should grid myself for the
battle?"
Surely you could. What is there
that you couldn't win, with health and
strength and the will 10 win it?-noth-
ing that Is worth having"
The fcrvor Of her own appeal carried
Elsie out of herself. and, remembers
ing only that man before her needed
help, she answered out of the depths
of a compassion which was as profound
and comprehensive as IL was impcr-
sonnl. She saw, as only woman can
see. the bcsetments that were drag

the heart OF al, woman &c - -. nfcr -kc=e
altar burns the light of pity and compas-
sion for ell the worlds light which Is
not divine only because IL Is human.
To the woman who frst reveals her
self TO any man in her true character
OF ministering angel is given the power
to bind and loose, and the opportunity
which Elsie had unconsciously grasped
had never been offered TO Helen save
at the moment of parting, when Philips
abruptness had forestalled IL. 1t was
inevitable, therefore, with Elsie's words
ringing in his ears. and with the con-
seriousness that he had been permitted
TO see the light OF that sanctuary which
is closed to all but the suffering and
despairing, that Philip should be swept
far beyond the bounds of his allegiance
to Helen; and since he was n man, il
was equally inevitable that he should
be unable to associate the offer of help
from the personality OF the woman who
rendered il. Raising himself among
the pillows, ne answered her with the
fire of new ambition beginning TO
quicken his pulses.
II can win-or, il not, can at least
die in harness. If try, will you help
me in the heat of the battle as you have
helped me just now? Think well before
you answer; it's graver responsibility
to save life than to take it,"
Didn't promise, yesterday, that 1
would help you? We will all do that
cheerfully and gladly"
"No, but that is not what meant.
You know what / mean, Elsie. Look
Mt me. VIII you be 10 me all the way
through what you are just now, the
enc person in the world who knows
my weakness and my need of inspira-
tion-who will hold up before me the
crown of reward when 1 am down un-
der the hoofs of the horses?"
There was no installing him now,
and in a twinkling Elsie the priestess
became Elsie the supplemented maid
en-, blushing painfully under the ruth
less questioning of his eyes. What she
might have said in reply Philip was not
to know, for in the moment OF embar-
raised silence Mrs. Duncan called her
10 the kitchen. When she was gone,
Philip was left to compound as best he
might with the throng of merciless ac-
cusers rising up in the name of justice
and honor TO demand satisfaction.
Through all the desperate assault he
chung obstinately TO the thought that
he was fighting for his life.
"Do what you will and say what you
will, he said TO himself when the battle
with his aroused conscience ragged the
fiercest, my life is my own. and mean
to live il 1 can. So far, have been
nothing better than child in leading
strings, but from this day / shall live
what is left of my life in my own way;
and II this girl had to be raised up TO
help me, why, so much the worse for
those whose opportunities were great
err"
And with such reckless shifting OF the
responsibilities, Philip made the first
entry in the book of self-reliance, re-
fusing to have his dinner brought to
him, and insisting peryersely on joining
the family at table.

dred Years Ago.
DIR. John Dome, the famous English
divine and poet, who lived in the reign
of James l., was veritable Sherlock
Holmes in bent of mind.
He was walking in the churchyard
while grave was being dug, when the
sexton cast up moldering skull. The
doctor idly took it up, and. in handling
IL, found a headless nail driven into il.
This he managed TO take out and con-
ceal In his handkerchief. IL was evident
TO him that murder had been done. He
questioned the sexton and learned that
the skull was probably that of n certain
man who was the proprietor of a
brandy-shop and was drlnkard, being
found dead in bed one morning after a
night in which he had drunk two
quarts of brandy.
Had he a wife2" asked the doctor.

"What character does she bear?"
"She bore n very good character, only
the neighbors gossiped because she
married the day after her husbands
funeral. She still lives here"
The doctor soon called on the woman.
He asked for and received the par
tieu!ars OF the death OF her first hus-
band. Suddenly opening his handker-
chief he showed her the tell-tale nail,
asking, In n loud voice:
Madam, do you know this nail?"
The woman was SO surprised that she
confessed, was tried and executed

The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1897-01-30

purely pecuniary tribunals are provided
having a so-called umpire, but all grayer
disputes are to be finally decided without
the presence of an umpire, and only by an
almost unanimous vote, unless indeed,
both parties are satisfied with the decision
made by a less majority. 1t also appears
that in case of final disagreement on
such important matters, before a resort
to hostile action of any description, the
mediation of friendly powers must be in
Yoked, which mediation in its very nature
will be only advisory, and Will leave the
two parties cAaCerned entirely free in the
exercise of their rights of sovereignty;
and that, therefore the apprehensions eX-
volve a renunoiation of the Monroe Doe
trine in any acCeptation of the term, or of
any of our legitimate rights of sovereign
ty, are entirely groundless.
For the settlement of all disputes Of
greater Importance than mere pecuniary
claims, the treaty simply furnishes to the
contracting parties well devised opportu-
mites for judicial discussion of the points
in controversy, to the end of facilitating a
peaceablc understanding, 1t will prevent
the precipitate opening of hostilities under
the spur of needless passion. 1t Will give
sudden eXcitements time to cool and make
the advocacy of war for reasons that
cannot stand the scrutiny of an unimpas-
stoned and well informed Judgment. While
not rendering war absolutely impossible
IL Will make it so improbable, so remote
