THE CAUSE OF THE sMAsHUP.

The old darkey was suing the rail-
road company for damages. The
man contended that not being warn
ed by whistle or engine bell he had
started to drive his rig across the
company's track when shunted box
car of said company crashed into his
outfit, causing the death of the horse,
loss of the wagon and minor injuries
to himself. After the prosecution
had closed its side of the case, the
company's lawyer called the old dar-
key to the stand and went at him
"Mr. Lamson," he began, "your
rig was struck by the box car in full
daylight, was it not?"
II fink dar was some clouds ova-
head suh," answered the caviling
witness.
Never mind the clouds And
only few days before this accident
the railroad company had put new
sign at that crossing?"
"Dar was a sign dar, ya-as, sub. "
"And didn't that sign say Stop
Look Listen !"
'Now dar am de who'll accusation

with animation. eff dat stop sign

Days went on like this, and Mrs.
Beal was gradually won over to the
enemy's camp. Every one who knew
Wint Miller loved him-loved him
despite his careless, hapless ways, for
his kindly spirit and other things, but
most because he was he. In the days
that followed he had many nurses, as
all the family took turns wheeling
him across the room so that he might
bask in the sunlight, but his happiest
hours were when Isabelle was in
charge.
One afterooon as she patted the pill
lows at the back of his chair and left
a glass of milk at his elbow he caught
the hand that had brought so many
comforts to him during his illness.
won't you stay little longer,
Miss Nightingale ?" he pleaded as he
held tightly to the hand. "Wait un-
til Jack comes. He's due in a few
minutes now if the train isn't late
please
"You old silly" said Isabelle as
she sat on the window ledge with the
shadows encircling her.
''I wish you knew more about me, "
said Wint. II wish you would ask
some of the fellows if I'm not a de-
cent sort. You see, I've something
to say to you, but I can't until you
know me better. It would be like
taking an unfair advantage.
"Oh, but 1 know all about you al
ready" she said gaily. 'Jack and I
talk about you all the time" !"
He reached out and pulled her lit
tie closer.
"I'm clumsy old thing, as Jack
always says, but there's nothing very
bad about me, and don't play this
sick trick very often. You wouldn't
care for a life job Of nursing, would
you. +" He was holding the hand
tightly now as she looked up at him
and said coyly:
"Ask me, why don't your
His arms were not very strong as
yet, but both of them went around
the girl as he drew her to his lips.
Sweetheart" he whispered.
"Well, I'll be hanged, Wint Mil
ler, none of that" sang out Jack as
he stood in the doorway, grip in hand,
as he had hurried from the train. II

to steal all the preserves on the fami-

"Yes, Jack" said Wint as he
reached out one free hand. "You
brought me down to fish aud I'm the
champion, for here is the catch of the
season, the best ever"

stars, ana the nappy laughter OF young
people, and the click of the stee
skates, ascends to US in pleasing ca
dence. There is something infectious
in the laughter of childhood, and il
brings back memories of happy days,
which, though forever past, shall yet
be forever remembered.
The planets and systems overhead
slowly change their position as the
earth swings around in its appointed
path. The stream of stars flows on
in endless motion, and shall forever
follow their destined course, when the
tribes of men shall be swept into
eternity, even as chaff before the con-
quering blast, into the starless night
of oblivion.
Resting awhile from our climb along
the hillside, VIC gaze at the innumera-
BILE points of light and speak of the
recent discoveries of the astronomers
and their conjectures concerning Mars,
which they believe to be inhabited.
The milky way, with Its kingly road
strewn with countless sparkling gems,
seems to lead up to the very gates of
the world beyond. We have for some
time believed that the great planets
are inhabited for we reasoned that
God, who created not this earth in
vain, but formed it to be inhabited. )"
according to his word, must surely
have created those other worlds for
the same wise purpose. But we did
not trust to our reasoning powers
alone, for they are so apt to err. We
learned further from Gods word that
one time in the far past years, when
the arch deceiver was cast out of the
heavenly courts, the triumphant COM
mand was heralded to the universe,
Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and
ye that dwell in them"
Thus we learned that there are
dwellers on the other planets, the
ninety and nine that left not the fold.
Tonight, amid scenes of gladness and
peace they rejoice that we, too, are
under the shadowing wings of the
great Father of all men. And per-
haps they, in those realms where the
ghostly presence of death has never
been permitted to intrude, nor the
voice of mourning is ever heard, go
about their vocations. even as did our
first parents, before they placed to
their stainless lips the sparkling cup
of transgression. And were Our eyes
but opened tonight to behold the deep
and hidden things of the Omniscient
One, whose hand swings the curtains
of futurity, we might witness such
sights as were witnessed by the seer
of old, who, exiled upon lonely Pat
mos, was thus brought even nearer his
home; yes, even into the radiant
presence of the King of Kings.
There are dark shadows among the
hills tonight, but the light shines upon
US from above, and as we retrace our
way homeward in the starlight, we
repeat the comforting words of one,
who o51t of tl5e suffering of his souf-
learned TO know that,
$50 long thy power has blest me, sure it still
Will lead me on,
Ger moor and fep, DER crag and torrent till
The night is gone,
And with the morn those angel faces smile,
That have loved long since, and lost awhile"
