The young man seized his hat and
put it on hind side before.
I'm going to take a little walk" he
said. II want to think this thing over.
It comes to me suddenly that a good
deal has been happening in the last
few weeks that didn't know about"

'Inside my poor carcass" said he.
"In my so called heart, that doesn't
keep posted on its own business. Oh,
to think that I shouldn't find it out til
right now when this other man comes
in, by heaven, to take away my very
name. I guess I'll walk around the
park bit"
he laid his hand upon the knob Of
the door.
you see" he said, turning, 81 never
fancied you as having loved before
You're such a child"
But what Of it, Donald, what of it?"
He turned suddenly and seized her
in his arms, lifting her face toward
his.
'Why, you little blue eyed angel of
paradise sent to redeem my soul from
black despair, don't you know that l

in a second that I'd have revenge for
Fanny. I've stood her week after

you couldn't stand a much less painful
ordeal for ten minutes. Swear that
you love me, Donald, and don't call
me Fanny by mistake while you're
swearing it, nor praise her eyes while
you're looking into mine. Do that,

any one upon the subject since that
most unfortunate calamity had over
taken him, and it was a great relief to
unburden his mind. 1t seemed to him
as If this innocent child had been sent
by plying Providence to be the re-
cipient of his confidence.
Though he spoke with the utmost re
spect Of Fanny, and did not hint nor
indeed think, that she had acted from
an unworthy motive, his story made
the facts absurdly plain to Helen, and
she was filed with wrath. For the
poor little girl was already In love with
Donald had already set his image on
a lofty pinnacle, and she ragged at the
thought that her idol should have lost
his heart to the commonest Of money
hunters.
Delicacy restrained her from ex-
pressing her real sentiments, and SO
she could say only that she was sorry
he had suffered so much pain. She
said it so tenderly and so sincerely
that it went straight to his heart,
which was not really so seriously frac-
tured as he had supposed
After this experience there was a
new Joy in life for Donald. He could
sit in Helens studio and talk about
Fanny. A beautiful girl was Fanny,
if one would take Donald's word for
it, and she had a walk like Juno's and
a singing voice that made the nightin-
gales turn into green poll parrots with
envy.
1t seemed to Helen that whenever
she herself felt doubtful Of her at
fractions Fanny was an absolute
ideal This was bad enough, but she
suffered worse, perhaps, when Donald
described Fanny's beautiful hands and
never gave a hint or word that he
thought Helens pretty. Now, Helen
knew they were pretty. She could
prove it by all the canOns of art but
what was the use if Donald did not
know? And then her eyes! People
whom she didn't care a penny about
were always telling her that she had
the finest eyes in the world, yet Donald
would sit there for an hour talking
about Fannys eyes and looking into
Helen's as if he saw nothing but two
little glass marbles.
All this the unhappy girl bore for
many weeks, but she rebeled at last.
1t was after they had become real
good friends, so that she called him
Donald and he called her Helen-that
is, he called her Helen part of the
time and Fanny the rest.
"Please, please, don't call me Fan,
n.y." she said in a moment Of despera-
ton. eff you can't. think Of my real
name, Cleopatra win door Bridget
But Fanny can't stand. There's a
girl Of that name that hate"
He said that he was very sorry
Such slips were very annoying to him
as well as to her, but the tongue was
an unruly member.
81 was at q summer hotel once" he
/ said, "and there was q man at the
same table who couldn't depend upon
himself in the matter of language.
4 When he wanted to say Please pass
the BUTTER he was just as likely to
say Go to blue blazes.' Aphasia,
think they call it. I must have a little
touch Of 1t, Fan-Helen. It's a shame,
for you speak my name so sweetly.
You never mlscall me-"
She laughed softly, and her eyes
looked thoughtful
II have the advantage Of you there"
she said. 1.-THE last fellow that 1 was
in love with was named Donald. 1t is
the name that comes most readily to
my lips"

A Pleasant Remembrance.

Mrs. Edwin Frost of this city lately re-
of Portland, who is now a student in the
Emerson School of Oratory in Boston,
which recalls in pleasing manner custom
of Mrs. Frost's mother, the late Mrs Char
lotte Jones, in sending birth-cake to newly
arrived infants in families of her acquaint-
ances. Miss Pollister is daughter of Geo.
c. and Belle (Pillsbury) Pollister, and the
mother was for several years telegraph
operator here. The cake referred to in the
letter was received in due time, and is in as
the letter:
MY DEAR MRS. Frost:
Twenty-one years ago yesterday Isabel Z.
Pollister began existence upon this wonder
full sphere. DO you remember that upon
that day, in celebration of my arrival your
mother, whom have always heard lovingly
spoken of as Aunt JONES'" sent beautiful
blrth-cake to mamma and me? Very likely
you do not, as the incident would make a
greater impression upon the recipient. But
now that have revived your memory thus
far, must tell you the rest of the story
Part of the cake was carefully put away and
no eye has seen it until I opened it myself
in honor Of my twenty first birthday. Nv
thoughts went Immediately to the giver, and
1 said l must send some to the daughter
OF the dear lady, who seems like some friend
must have known at some time, yet have
never seen. I send you small piece, know
ing that you will prize it and keep it always.
With kind regards, believe me
Yours sincerely,

Gov. Burleigh some time ago introduced
bill to pension Lena E Patterson of Mon
roe, Maine, as the dependent daughter of
Was hington Patterson. who served in Com
pany B, 18th Maine volunteers, and to pay
her pension at the rate of $40 per month.
This bill was favorably reported by Rep
resentative Sulloway, and passed the House
without any debate. Mr.. Patterson received
gun shot wound in the forehead, which re-
suited in impaired vision of the left eye, ,rheu
matism and resulted in disease of the heart.
He died Oct II, 1898, and his wife died May
8, 1898. Miss Patterson was born July 27,
1876. She received an injury some nine or
ten years ago, and is obliged to use crutches
or cane to get around the house. 1t is said
that she will be cripple for life, and being
very feshy person from childhood, now
weighing about 25O pounds, it is very diff
cult for her to move about. 1t is claimed
that she would become an object of charity
within few years. The committee voted
to reduce the pension from $12 to $8 month,
and this was agreed upon by the House.

1t was pleasure to visit the Monroe Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union last
week, and to find them 80 interested and
active. They are not eager to boast of their
labors, but, reading between the lines one can
see that it is a live Union. They are preparing
for the county convention which meets there
in June, and are also learning the Declara-
ton of Principles and Catechism in way
which will leave behind some other Unions.
unless they hestir themselves. Sides were
chosen, and regular lessons are assigned and
recited. They have lately secured some
White Ribbon Hymnals, and it was a pleas
ure to listen to tie choir, because every
song was the closing part on the evening" 8

Northport Union is the first to send in an
nual dues: with an increase of four or i've

All Unions will keep careful record of all
work done during the year, and send to the
county corresponding secretary at least a
week before convention. From these rec
ors the secretary will make up her report.
Local superintendents should do the same,
sending to their several County superinten-
dents, who report both to the County and
State superintendents. A list of these lat
ter will be given next week. We must not
forget to increase our membership as much
as possible. For convenience the names of

that time. The committee has decided to
increase to $40 a month the pension of the
widow of Lieut.. Col. John NJ. Hamilton,
9th Cavalry, who was killed at the battle
of San juan. The Senate, March 22nd,
IN ex xecutive session by an almost unani-
nous vote, ratified the treaty between the
United States and Great Britain relative
to the estates Of citizens of one country
who die in the otGer...... Newspaper pub
fishers all over the country will rejoice at
the defeat of the Loud bill in the House.
The vote to recommit the bill is practically
its death warrant, especially as the vote
was by so decisive figure. The measure
was directed fairly against the country
weeklies and the smaller dailies imposing
conditions that could not have been met
without financial loss. In many cases the
passage of the bill would have meant
cessation of publication. Senator Hoar'S
generous proposition to give ex Queen
Lllluokalani pension of $40, 600 a year
has been very properly sat upon. Just
what distinguished service this interesting
woman has done to entitle her to a place
on the national pension roll is something
that Mr. Hoar entirely fails to explain.
