At Lake Lebarge we met an English

ETC., Of course he would have to return

at his family and said, "Well, could

fond Of them to leave them here; so
think III stay here myself and let the

now, a Cockney friend was staying at
a farmhouse, and soon made himself at
home.
Charley was wandering round. close

TRULY" as the phrase is.
Miss June, as we know, was trine
self-willed, and, in spite of what anyone
might say, she declined to be married in
white with a bridal wreath and veil. Az
q matter Of fact. she wished to go to the
altar In black; but she was not allowed
to offer this insult to the god Hymen, and
therefore compromised the matter by
wearing q charming toilet Of silver gray.
And sweetly young and modest and pref
ty she looked, with faint carnation In
her cheeks, and eyes bright with tears
that she was resolute not to shed. For
was she not happy? and would she do dis
honor to her 1--we by being weeping,
mournful-looking bride?
The wedding was a very quiet one, but
a great festival was given to the tenants.
The rector and Mrs. Ellesmere did the
honors of that, while the bridegroom and
bride were bowling away in their carriage
and-four on the first stage Of their jour.
ney to Dover. For June had never been
abroad, and was to see all those lovely
parts of switzerland and the Rhine,
which we, who have often seen them, turn
up our noses at, but which to the novices
are so entrancingly lovely and charming.
And II ever two young people did, the
Continent pleasantly, Mr.. and Mrs. Elles
mere did. Tom was the most liberal crca
ture In the world, and endowed with
fair amount Of wealth, and he was sensi.
BILE enough to know that the value Of
money II the pleasure it can bring you.
The services were secured Of an admira-
bic courier (who prevented their having
the smallest trouble and made semi-pa'
ternal love to June's maid). Toms pock.
cts were full Of gold and silver and bank
notes, which he flung about with the gen
erosity and recklessness of the traditional
''milor" Qess we'll known on the Continent
now than formerly); the best of every
thing was scarcely good enough for his
his darling; his good temper was imper.
turbable, and his alteration at its topmOst
pinnacle.
One question constantly perplexed her.
How was it possible that Tom, the apple
Of her eye, the object Of her intense de-
votion-in whose absence she felt it would
be impossible to know happiness could
once have inspired disgust and WEAKNESS
in her? Sometimes she was compelled
to say, twining her arms round his neck,
"How Is it possible that did not always
love you as do now?" and he would an
swer, pressing her to his faithful heart:
ut seems more wonderful to me, dar-
ling, that you should care for me now
than that you should not have cared for
me before"

SHE RESCUED HER CHICKENS
Brave Deed Of q Lighthouse Girl at
Matiufcue Rock.

Brave Deed Of q Lighthouse Girl at
Matinicus Rock.
Several Of the violent storms that
have whirled over the Matinicus rock
have tried the fortitude Of the little
band Of faithful watchers upon 1t, says
the Century Magazine.
One Of these watchers, Abby Burg
ess, has become famous In our light
house annals, not only for long service,
but also for bravery displayed on va
riOus occasions. Her father was keep
er Of the rock from 1853 to 1867. In
January, 1856, when she was II years
Of age, he left her in charge Of the
lights while he crossed to Matinicus
Island.
His wife was an invalid, his son was
away on q cruise and his four other
children were little girls. The follow
ing day 1t began to "breeze up" the
wind increased to a gale and soon de-
veloped into a storm almost as furious
as that which carried away the tower
on Minots ledge in 1851. Before long
the seas were sweeping over the rock.
Down among the powders was n
chicken coop which Abby feared might
be carried away.
On a lonely ocean out post like
Matinicus rock a chicken Is considered
with affecionate interest, and Abby
solicitous for the safety of the inmates
of the little coop. waited her chance.
and when the seas fell Off httle rush
ed knee deep through the swirling
water and rescued one Of the chickens.
She had hardly closed the door Of
the dwelling behind her when a sea,
breaking over the rock. broke down the
old cobblestone house with crash.
While the storm was at it's height the
waves threatened the granite dwell
ing, SO that the family had to take
refuge in the towers for safety, and
there they remained with no sound to
greet them without but the roaring Of
the wind around the lanterns, and no
sight but the sea seething over the
rock.
Yet through It all the lamps wera
trimmed and lighted. Even after the
storm abated the reach between the
rock and Mactinicus Island was 80
rough that Capt. Burgess could not re-
turn until four weeks later.
