Your mothers ring taken from her hand
IN death, and which was the sole token
by which we recognized her. Gave!
1he corals which never left your
childish neck, and gave meaning to
your name. Gave! Your grand
mothers diamonds, precious as valu-
ables, but still more precious for the
murmured blessing with which she
placed them in your hand on that
solemn evening when she died. Gavel

demanding reply which she did not
seem to know how to make. Mr.. Beau
champs face had changed also; and.
while simple shrug of the shoulder
answered Mr.. Cassetty's allusion to
himself, this high-spirited and sensitive
young, man showed in every line of his
face that he felt only too keenly that
mere was mystery which she ought to
clear up at once
ITO whom have you given these
jewels?" insisted the father.
Whisper the name in my ear"
urged the lover
81 cannot" she moaned. "Let the
clergyman 60 on; will tell you after
wards"
But George Beauchamp, who comes
OF very proud race, with no recorded
blot on its history, resolutely shook his
head and, while gentle with her, replied
with quiet dignity:
No, Coralie, we will not enter into
marriage with any secrets between us.
Ii our friends here will pardon the
trouble we have put them to, we will
postpone this ceremony till we can both
enter upon it with free and light
hearts" And with bow to the deeply
Inundated father, he rose from the bed
side.
Thus repudiated in her turn, Coralie
lay crushed under her load of shame
Searching in wild entreaty for svm-
pathizer among the persons about her
she caught my eye and feebly thrust out
her arms.
Glide me-" she cried. "Burv nv
face away from them ALL Throw your
arms about me, and let none of them
see me again"
But her father would yield to none
other this task, and took her to his
breast, even while launching a question
at young Beauchamp.
You refuse to marry her, them" he
asked.
The year-long lover, the all but
husband, paused, looked back softened
at the touching spectacle of stricken
father and covering bride, then slowly,
but resolutely, hardened himself again
to cold but digniied courtesy.
"Miss Cassetty will herself wish to
explain as soon as she is able to view
this matter clearly"
Able! Some of us thought she would
die before the words had left his mouth.
But she did not; she even started up,
alert and eager, as new voice-a voice
which had been silent during these last
few minutes-struck in, with sudden
decision:
"This is all an insult to Miss Cassctty
AS you are now pleased to call her.
Explain! she-when she can hardly
utter two words from weakness! Shame.
What if her Jewels are
gone? You surely don't suppose she
gave them where she should not?"

thought his attitude noble.
Il have said to Mr.. Cassetty all that
had to say on this subject" replied the

TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE

On the afternoon Of Saturday,
June 5, 1918, the wonderful spectacle
Of total solar eclipse will be visible
weather permitting, over a track ex-
tending from the Pacific Washing
tom to the Atlantic (Florida). This
track of the moons shadow is 20
miles wide at the western coast, mar
rowing to 40 miles in Florida.
For about an hour the moon viii
gradually encroach upon the SUMS
disk, the daylight will fade, then the
narrowing crescent of thesun will sud
denly appear, and around the jet
black ball Of the moon, hanging in
the northwestern sky among the
brighter stars, will be seen the pearly
radiance Of the mysterious solar COR
one. The remarkable spectacle may
be enjoyed for 1872 seconds at the
western coast, and for half that time
in Florida. Then the crescent Of the
sun will appear on the other west
ern) side Of the moon, and after an
other hour the full disk Of the sun
win shine as usual.
This event happens at any one
place, on the average, only tree times
in thousand years.

TELL HIM HOW.

If with pleasure you are viewing any
work a man is doing,
If you like him or you love him, tell
him now.
Don't withhold your appreciation till
the person makes grafton,
And he lies with snowy lilies Ger
his brow;
For no matter how you shout it, he
won't really care about it;
He won't know how many tear
drops you have shed.
If you think some praise is due him,
now's the time to slip it to him,
For he cannot read the tombstone
when he's dead.
More than fame and more than mon
ey, is the comment kind and
sunny,
And the hearty, warm approval Of
a friend.
For it gives to life a SAVIOR, and it
makes you stronger, Drawer,
And it gives you heart and spirit
to the end.
If he yearns for praise--bestow it.
if you like him, let him know it;
Let the words of true encourage
mentibe said.
Do not wait till life is over, and he's
underneath the clover,
Fore he cannot read his tombstone
when he's dead.
