her cheeks, -leaving theui sis white as new
fallen fnow,
per eyes wuo heavy a-J dull
ts lead, goring vacantly forward with an
expression of utter mbcry ; her step was
?Iow and feeble, and she trembled as if
unable to support her own weight. She
seemed to have aged years in that one
hour of anguish pased in hc room en
tered with f uch a light step and happy
heart.- s
Slowly she went to her own room.
Baby Bertha lay in Lex dainty cradle
sleeping profoundly in a morning nap,
and the young mother, sinking upon her
knees !csldc her, found some relief from
her agony in a pivdca of tears and sobs.
Aqain and ngain her husband's name
mingled with the moans wrung from her
white, quivering lips, till the. violence ol
her grief wakened the sleeping child,
who broke into wailing cries. For a
moment the inotber forgot her own grief,
as she soothed the little one with all
love's tender carose-;, kissing the velvet
cheek, and whispering soft worJs of af
fection. - .
. Hut when the child lay quitcd in hei
arras, the shadows fell again over Isau
ra's face, and her tears dropped fast upon
1he little face nestlosd against her bosom.
The burden; of grief was not lifted,
though thq first wild paroxysm was over.
Lsaura Gardiner was a fair woman, U'-l
but slight,:and possessing much beauty,
of.a purely blonde type, rippling, golden
hair and blue eyes, with a soft, delieat
complexion. Her dis:Hsitiou was genth
nnd loving in U r..:nai A ihl- degree, suit
ing well the cwquLsito 1 cr.r.ty of fare ::u
form. ; j
It is no exaggeration to say that she
actually lived in her affections, and these J
were centered absolutely in her husband
and child. Orphaned when only ten
years old, sho had lccn under the guar
dianship of her aunt, passed from one
boarding school to another, spending
even her holidays in the care of her
teachers, unless invited to visit a fellow
pupil. !j
It wa3 during such a visit in the vil
lage that was to become her future honie
that she met Julius Gardiner, ami her
heart, starving for sympathy ami com
pansionship, sprang at once to answer
his warm avowal of deep, sincere love.
She had never known what it was to re
ceive such affection as her lover gave her,
and sho gratefully returned it. And in
her love she had found only happiness.
It was Julius who had consoled her when
licr aunt died, leaving her alone in the
world. I Julius who had urged a . epeedy
marriage, that he might- have tho right
to comfort and protect her. Julius who
had made a bridal tour of his long busi
ness journey and given her every leisure
hour to explore all the sights of the many
new places in which they sojourned.
Julius who had watched licr tenderly
when her life seemed going from her,
after baby came, and gave her new life
by his loving voice and gentle caress.
She had thought their love perfect
as strong in Jus heart an in her own. Hut
on that June morning, .ill this happy cer
tainty had gone from her, and her heart
seemed breaking at the loss. . Siie took
no further interest in the exploring ex
pedition through the old house upon
which she had started so merrily, but
rocked her.Uaby in ber arms, and mued
over the one appallidtj'dUcovcry she had
already made.
Julius found her so when he came in
to his dinner, and arxioirdy inquired the
cauc of her woe begone lace and red
cjci. ;But for the first time his tender
sympathy met a repulse; not an angry
4. no, but one that was equally purzling
to him, it was so full of mute reproach,
anil no entreaties could give him any ex
planation of the cause.
For days, this atmosphere of glm
trirsterv bun about Isaura. She
- j
neglected all the little household duties
in which &he had delighted; he would
sit for hours in silence and illenem, her
face white, her eyes fixed mournfully
on vacancy.
Julius was distracted. Loving his
wife with all the fondness of a tender,
true heart, be was grieved and angerd
to see her fretting constantly, yet refus
ing to give any reason for such excess of
sorrow. !
In vain he tried by every tender de
vice to win Lcr conSdccce. She only
kept a more profound silence, while yet
most evidcatly doubting the sincerity of
his professions of love and regret.
At last, the result Julias dreaded fell
over Isaura, and sh was prostrated by
low nervous fever nd became very ill.
The ihystcian hinted at some mental dis
turbance, d prescribed quiet; and the
husbrmd, thoroughly around by fear, ex
cited hiV authority with r.m. how o!
harshness, j
' Voa are . xiur.dng some chimera, tf hi

The woaoaa you Iotc I am sorry,
Julias, that I have stood ia the way so
long. It would have beea better to have
been frank with me and told me the
truth before we were married."
She is insane, thought poor Julius,
bursting into a cold sweat of horror;
she has been nursing some delusion till
it has turned her brain and made her a
monomaniac !
All anger was gone fiom his voice as
he bent low over his wife.
Darling," he said, "do not think of
such things. You cannot doubt my love
for you!"
The blue eyes that had grown dinr
with excessive weeping searched his fact
eagerly. Then, as if nerved to a desper
ate effort Isaura took a lolded ' paper
from the drawer of a tablo beside her
bed and handed it to her husband.
"Read that," she ssid. "I found it in
the room tip-stairs that you told me was
your room while your parents lived. It
was in the drawer of a bureau there,
with other papers. You told me I might
overhaul anything I pleased, and I read
tliat."
Wonderingly, Julius opened the paper,
while Isaura scanned his face, watching
for the confusion of detected guilt. To
utter amazement, Julius, after reading
the paper, barst into a fit of laughter,
clear, ringing and hearty.
"Oh, Isaura," he cried, when he
could catch his breath, "the sins of my
youth are being visited upon my head
with a vengeance. Oh, it is toa good!"
And another paroxysm of mirth fol
lowed.
I don't ee anything funny about it,
said Isaura, crimsoning with anger.
Julias read aloud, with mu?k em
phasis f

"Oh, T-aura," said TuTTus, wlio haa
been interrupted by frequent spasms of
laughter, "have you really been frettln;

Then, looking into the pale, wan lice,
Julius became grave agaiu.

"Ob. Julius!" Isaura casned. "I

Why aa Amputated (Jab Piles. .
A very singular, form of neuralgia - is
that affecting the nerves of amputate)
limbs. It not rarely happens that after
an amputated stump has hcale 1 the
nerves of the stump, being compressed
in the scar, becomes exceedingly painful.
Curie usly enough, the pain is not felt in
the stump, but seemingly in the extrem
ity of the limb, which has probrbly ln
buried for a year or more. In one ca-t
coming under the notice of the writer a
man whose arm had beea amputate 1
above the elbow often referred to th
pain he felt in the little fingrr of the
severed member for years after th? oper
ation. An old, onc-lcggcl soldier, ap
plying for an inreav; of pension, said:
'I have more pain in the foot that tdnt
than in the one that are." This was.' his
terse way of saying that he continued to
have pain in the foot which was lost on
the battle field years before. j
The explanatiorrof these curious phe
nomena consists in the fact that the ter
minal" filaments of a nerve are its mosi
sensitive parts; they are the " feelers,'! the
points from which the sensations start on
their course to tho brain, where they give
notice that something il wrong with1 the
outlying. districts. When the nerve i
injured in this continuity the sensation is
often referred to the terminal end.
Everyone who has struck his "entry -
bone" the point alove the elbow,
where the ulnar nerve is very superficial
and easily injured must have noticed
how much the sensation tvas affected in
the little finger, tko paiu being often
greater than that at the point where, the
blow was struck. .Sf. IjvvU Iijulic.
