Happy at Last

DEBECCA STONER was regarded as
n the typical old maid of Kingstown.
People said she had "soured on the
world" aud, assuredly, judging from
the sharp, bitter remarks which often
passed ner lips, one would not imagine
that she found the world full of sweet
ness and light. The Kingstown people
would have opened their eyes wide
could they have seen the old maid one
winter evening when, having returned
from a walk, she threw herself on her
couch and shed flood of tears.
"Can I never forget him, or learn to
despiss the man who spurned my love ?"
she murmured. "Ah, Dick, Dickl 1
never will cease to love you'll" Sudden
ly she rose and dashed away her tears
and bitter, mocking smile played
about her lips.
There 10 no man in the wide world
worth tear-but he least of ALL" she
said, fercely; "and will never think of
him again." Alas, poor Rebecca! She
knew too we'll how little she could keep
her promise to herself, for the very
sight of Dick Waldron, white-haired
and stepped though he was, was enough
to set her heart strings to tingling.
Her story was one not uncommon in
New England village life.' When prep
arations were going on for her marriage
to Richard Waldron, Rebecea's mother,
who was widow, fell i'll. Richard, who

oRANDFATHER's DREAM.

Grandfather sat in his big armchair
Fast asleep. .
The wrinkles that ran over his wan old face
Were furrowed deep.
The tangled web of his beard hung from
His cheek and chin,
White as the falling snow the winds
Gambol in.
His hard, brown hands were crossed above
HIS walking staff;
And we hushed to silence the talk in the
And the laugh.
For we saw a smile on his parted lips
Spread DER his face,
As a ripple DER a tranquil lake
From its starting place.
We guessed some vision the long ago
Had anchored deep
In the old mans soul was drifting now
Through his sleep.
What was that dream? Did his childhood
And leave map
OF all his early playing grounds
There in his lap?
Or was it a winding orchard path
In the twilight dim,
And his children's mother, girl again.
Walking with him?
Perhaps, through times long telephone,
He heard coo
And felt baby's hand on his cheek,
AS he used to do.
Sure we were some radiant JOY
He had met somewhere
Had come to visit the old man there
Asleep in his chair
But soon his hands dropped from his staff
And dropped his head;
And those who came and went that day
Talked of the dead.
We talked only of pearly paths
In summer land,
Where his children's mother walked with
him,
Hand in hand.
For now We knew her angel face
Glad in the CLEAN
OF golden city awaiting him,
Was grandfather's dream.

YOU ARE sPoILING TWO LIVES"

their new home would be within sight
OF the Stoner place, Rebecca could still
be with her mother and oversee q
nurse. But the mother selfishly OBJ
jected. "She knew that Rebecca would
not be the same to her after marriage;
no one else could nurse her as well, and
she wouldn't be in their way long. She
would go gladly as soon as she was
called up higher" etc.
So Rebecca, sick at heart, but not
daring, raised, as she had been, to resist
parental authority, offered Dick his
freedom.
He stormed angrily at first, but, see
ing her pain and distress, at last said
to her: 'Rebecca, you are spelling two
lives, l fear, by your mistaken notion
of your duty, but ] must submit. But
wheI you are free you have only to
write TO me-for / cannot stay here
and call me back. Whenever you send
/ will come, for i will never love any
woman but you, and will faithful to
you always"
All might have gone well had it not
been that Mrs. Stoner again selfishly in
terfered. "Rebecca and Dick must not
write to each other; it would only keep
Rebecca's mind in tumult, and she
would not stand in their way long. She
was ready to go to Heaven at any time; |;
she had never harmed a living creature;
She would gladly free them of her pres
ence," and more canting talk like this,
which did nothing to heal Rebecca's
sore heart.
AS matter of fact, the old lady held
onto life with tenacious grasp and

To the coffee drinker. Coffee drinking
is habit that is universally INDUCED in

Have you tried Grain-O? 1t is almost
like coffee but the effects are just the
opposite. Coffee upsets the stomach,
ruins the digestion, effects the heart and
disturbs the whole nervous system.
