She pot forth her hand; he caught it

leased her, a bracelet caught in his but ton
and broke. Tlie little charms cross

it separated, the cross still hanging to
the button, the others falling at Caroline s

With a frightened look she pointed to
the broken trinket and eaid: 'O, Edgar,

'Nonsense! At your feet behold my

in a mournful voice.

'I feel a presentiment, Edgar, that

Thus Caroline Ainsworth communed
with herself in the splendid boudoir of her
suite of apartments.
Going to a jewel casket, she unlocked
it, aud drew fotth the little golden heart
and anchor.

A knock at the door announced the
coming of some one, and a footman pre
sented liim-eit, and said, handing an en-

The pressure made the impression, not
a ring, on the paper in which it whs en
closed, but a cross. As Caroline a eye

A REMARKABLE DREAM.
o
Conrad, the Emperor of Oermsny, was
remarkable for his auspairing punishment
of all who crossed his purpose. A quaint
but true legend recites that a certain
Count Lupoid, who was one of those
tearing death, tied into the remote
forest and lived iu e hut awith bis
wife.
It happened that the Emperor, while
hunting, came to the spot und passed the
night with them. That night the Count's
wife t.ecame the mother ol a son, and ' lie
Emperor dreamed tha' the ch.ld then

moved to compassion by its smiles, ih -y
placed it under a tree, anil brought back
a hare's heart to the E nn-rnr.
