A (lu«h roae lo John's sun-br«>wned fa?e as he quickly lose and began to take dowo ihe b^irs. “Out for a walk, Mlaa Lily ?’* **YeS," very briefly. *'Soyuuaie fond of quiet strolls t I am, too.’* L'ly drew herself up and looked at the pre* suiDpluoua speaker. "Ue illy, Mr. tlollaway, I don't tee what it Is to you—” Theu she »topp(*d. She did not ncan to be rede, but truly, she thou;;bt to herself, H waa high limo ahe ahoull ahow this young msn that his openly-eipreased admiration wus ex* ceedln;(ly distaatoful to her. It b.id been Koln}( on for some time, and ev-ry one, even Lily hti’aeir, had come to see that the son rose riid set for John llolliway where she was. "Memust be in’enaely suipld not to know how utterly IndltTerunt 1 am to him,*' ahc thought. But John waa not stupid. He understood the nndnished sentence, and as he drew buck without anoiher word to let her pass Lily saw he didi tnd a ebame-faced, compuuctious look stole Ip!o her eyes. For, from the richest to the pooi-tst, eveiy one acknowledged ,John UoPaway's noble, sterling cb»ractcr. Lily walked slowly alon;; the road, half de termined to 'nm hack und apolo;;jzi] for her ludeiieas, aotli a lurn brought her face to fui e wlih some one whoso handsonao eyes met her own wiUi such a gUd welcoiiie that ali other ihou^h^a iMre for ihu tliuo diiven ompletely away. It waa Richard Blakc, the most admired and eturted young man in the village. **Ah, good afternoon, Mlaa Luwience! 1 was hoping I would moot you." And the wavy bUck leeks were bared to the breeeie as Richard courteuuslj lifted hia bat and walked on beside her. What a contrast to John Ilollaway ! And the eontrasi was great in mmiy other ways than Lily thoti:;ht. But the girl was bu'young to read character, and that lilehurd Hluke wus very handsome and elegant none could deny --a lover of whoitt any one might be Justly prou I. W.teu Lily's home was reached, und with another graceful bow Uichurd had left ht-r. she did not go directly into the house, but llngjred awhile among the Sowers that tilled their little garden. Her thoughta were very busy. 8he knew that ahe had behated very unkindly to her old friend, and her memory wentbiiuk to the llrat time she had met him. It wus at a picnic, and »he hnd fallen und sprained her ankle. Slo*. remembered how the great feliow, so much stronger than his ai.its, bad persisted in carrying ber hI{ the king dN» tanco back to her home. Since then he hud ah twn in H hundred w»y what she wus to him, aud knowing his noble nature, perhaps her heart would ha?e gone out to him b-fore thla if Kiehard Black had not come back from col- lege. But be had, and Lily fancied his gay, de bonair manners, and hU entertaining conver* aation, and like many another young girl hud begun to take for true, heari-deep love that liking which we all have for things pleasant lo iha aiglit. And so she shook o0*Btr reproachful feel ings aud w^ni into the house. *‘Why, mother, dear, what It the matter? Crying, and 1 out enjoying myself! Tell me, what is it, dear t Let me share your trouble.” Mrs. Liwreueo lifted a face, smiling through her tears. 'Tes, crying, Lily, darling, but not from grief. 8lt down here bestde tmi let rae show you what a load has bet n lifted from toy mind this rooming. Liiy, I did not iell you, but som4 time ago Mr. Barton, the law yer, came io rae and Informed mt) that the bolder of the mortgage on our home w^a Ip need of money, aud intended to foreclose, un« less the mortgage was paid tn full when be should demand It. J\^ow, child, you know what a trouble has b en wel»;hlng upon me, for I knew that It would be imposaible for me to ralae the sum necessary, and that we muai leave ihe dear old home that we had loved so well. And now. this very morning, Mr. Bur* ton came and told mo that a kind friend, hear* i ng of the intetdtd for^Itavre, has paid the amount In full. ;7''T *'Who Is It that helped you.VOtlietf^ **That Is the atrangest part’ll It* X>fl]^. M^. Barten said he had atrietly prouiifeed Ml It tell the name of my benefactor, tnd it • t()> ttean be I have no idea.** ^ ^ . But though she did not mM ; and when later, la her usual- she lold Jobd Ilollaway bow torrj the was that ahe bad been ao rude to him> tnd then tsked bim frankly whether be was or not ihe kind friend who had come so opportunely to her motber't relief, hit mtnner confirmed her tusplclont.

Bnt John ot coarse did not know ti. lie wtt not one to wear bis bttrl upon hit tleovo, tnd ti length, tMer« btrd tirutrgle, had decided to tbandon hts hopeless salt and leave the d«1d to that rival who evidently wtt ihe favored one. Lliy noticed the difference; but, woman like, she dkl n4t tppetr to ctra, tnd so the months went by mach the ttroe, until tt longth the crisis came. The village In which our heroine lived wss Jaat on the shores of t Httle bay, and many Ww-re the pleastre parties that enjoyed t trip over lit limpid watert. One tfternoon KIchard Blake, obtaining Mrs. Lawrance't consent, Invltod Lily to take a sail. When thev resched the besch who should be Waiting in readiness to mtnsge the bott but John 7/olt.ttray. **lUlio, Ilollaway, are you turning Into b>atinan T" rxclaltneil Blakr, In aitoniahment. **Llfting his cap to Lily, Jt»hn answered: "Not eia^ily; but Joe came to uie In gieat dlatre>«a, S'tyin^ he did not f«el well enough to gi» out, but had promised not to diaapptdot yoo. and knowing I could manage t bott he aalred me take his pitce.

Else I should not havt eomt; i would not fur the world he a mar sport. 7*he bitt rness In hit tone touched t like chord in Lily's heart For >nio little time back ahe had b> en slowly but surely lesrnlng a lesson—the difference between real worth and mf're glittei; and now ber heart sank as she saw, or thoui(ht she s:tw, how completely her coiiduet h:d driven all affecMott teward her from John's mind, and that »he had fooUehly thrown away ber own happlncAs. "Well, Ilollaway,Tm aure I’m ninch obliged. It’s very kind uf you." was Blake's reply. And the two young men aoon had tbo little craft tn readiness for its fair frelieht. Bluk) had seen John's liking for Lily, but his vanlt/ bad uot been alarmed; he knew by experience tht power of hit dtrk eyes, and Lily Lawrence was like any other young ludy If ahe were ten tiroes prettier. So she rea soned. They fioafed lightly over the hlae wafer, to- choring after a while under a bluff, and drop ping their lines to ilsh Lily chatted gayly in her own fascinating way, and never had she seemed more lovely in Kiehard Blake’s eyea, white pnor John, who bad thought of late that he had driven ber Image from hit mind, fell the old charm creeping over him again strongrr than ever before; but he hid his p:tlu ni'infully, and kept bis part lu the lively con- veisstlon. Time crept on, and Just as they decided on returning, to their dismay the heavens aud- derty cloud^*d over, and t pi*al of thunder brou;;hl them to tht'Ir feet In alarm. Squalls were not common u^on the bay, bat one was evidently now upon them, tnd John saw the great danger. A moi.ient and they were dash ing at t mad rate over the waves, while overhead the awful darkness gathered luore ominously all the while, and every now and then vivid fl4«hes of flaiuo seenicd to envelop them on alt sid« t. Suddenly there was :i blinding glare, then a tenlllc flash, tnd half the mast dropped over the boars, while the sails wm-o dragged Into the acethin/ water, For an Insiant John waa al most stunned; then hia H^st thought was Lily. Wbere wus she? A second more and he caught the glejin of yellow curls In the cruel waves amont; the tatteied sails; the ropes had twisted about her light (Igure tnd dragged her to Blake's side. # **ir»he IS to be youra,|it Is you wh > ougl t tosavehi r! Quick, or It will be loo lute I Your chance will be gone !" But Blake still cowered trouiblingly where he waa, unheeding the peril of the one he pro- feabed to love. Another instant John was struggling among the sails; a few teconda of awful suapenae while the waves were tu;;glng aava«elv at him; then, weak, almost falmlng. he crcft ('ac-k into the boat with Lily's Inseiiaibte form clasped cloae to hia brave heart, lie hnd Maved her! Then,still in Imminent, danger, they remHlned olinuiitg tn the disuiantied boat, until, aa sud> denly tilt had fallen, the squalls lified, and a welcome hall from the shore proclaimed that help was near at hand. Lily came to herself at last, to Hnd that John was holdtcg her fast, with her face close to bis own. In tu Instant the memory of what had passc(t came back to her. She did not draw awty. but raised her lustrous eyes to his at If to read bit lumost thoughts; then the cold cheek preased ilself closer tgalHtt his own, while ber arms wound themselves auftly around his neck. "John—dear John I was tll she said. And John knew that with the greatest peril the grustest blessing of hia life bad come to him; while Kiehard Blake, looking on with pale, teowling /tro, comprehended clearly that John's words had been prophetic when he htd tald, "Your chance will begone."

It iws within the walls of a gorgeous Mtihum- medati mosque, surrountiod by all iho pomp und circnmHtance of glorious Oi'iental nplondor. No croHs mttrks it to bend iho knee of the worshipping Cbrisiiati; no cnmcent shincH atop in mystio spli>ndor to make the faithful moHlem bow his fort'hoad to the ground in humble adoration. And yet, for lhr»H» thtiHsund seven buiidrtMl years Jews, Mohammcdatis and Christians, with a unity not found uii^uin on OodV oarth, havo united in doing honor ta ihiH spot and in otlVring W4>r!*ltip un- livilod and undiHputod, For hoiv lay in tiiin'H oi old—and who knows bow old ? that niystorious cave Maclipelali, bouglit in Htraiigt! ways by ilio patri arch, and held sacred from that day (or evernion*. It wart a plain stout staff, upon which Jacob lent when ho exacted the fortni- daidc promise, t!mt his son sh«iuld carry his rt‘inains to Urbron und bury himjthei'ti with his fathers in the land of pnunise. A stall'. unct>uth and un* drrNsed, in its natural state, only worn a trith*, where the hand was api lo slip up or down. Hut it was the sceptre of our day, designating, as no gaudy tool I ivory or ctistly inrtal ever conid have done, the priestly r;»nk aad |.owcr ot tin* great ruler—a badge ot dignity and hi^li aulhority still worn by every princc or sheik of m Hlmi Hclouins. No si-^lit greeted the son of the Km* press of the Hast so strange nud so startling as the way in which the Kadi and the Mufii, tlu* (fovernor and the rutriaich, of Jerusalent met him at the gates o( that Holy City, drenxed in goi*g«‘oii« robes of riehly einbroi lt‘ied tiilk, bntjbcaring in thoir hands a rtide slatf, the mere siraight bow t»f a tree, that neither kniie 1104 tool li.id ever dared to touch. It was “leaning upon the top »('■ this stair’ that Jacob, by laitli, worslupp'd, as the Apostle Paul so specially points out to us in his letter ti) the llrbrews. He hronght all his faith in itod, all his authority upon earth, to bear upon the Siict'cd oath that Josrph was to swear. For as the latter wiis lord of Kgypt, its saviour in tht* past, its wise, all-pi>\vrr- ful ruler in the present, the authori ties would, no donht, have readily lavirthcMl royal pomp and distinction upon the patriarch, lial he but chosen to rest fmever in Kgyptian 8i)il. Acres of living rock would liave sprung in e.'^istenee, hewn into deathless monti- mentK and seulplnred into qi a nl, un* ravelled mysteries. The whole of this liitid that A':ts greatest «f all nt that tiiu(\ wouM havo lamented and be- wadv-d the weary waylaier, and incense would fiave risen on fiigli (Votu the vast oc(‘an lo the mysterious Muuntains of th(* Sun. But he, strong in his I'aith, slroiig in the protnis* IVom on high, preferi’ed to rest in the land ol' l»is lathers, the land or promise. What lie g ive tip we may see from the faet that all the higli otlicials of I’haioah's palace, all thf l**adin!' noLK>s of the land wiiii a gorgeous escort of thotis* ands of the great aniiy, actually ^lid accompany the c*«llin adistanoe of four or five days’ travel. Thus he returned to the thrice hon- ored eavo, the one appai‘?nt pledge that God's promise wonhl assureiily come true. And how w*»ndrousIy lli» w(H’d protected His servant! The no blest monuments, the must sacred giMVcs, the last resting plac(*s of the mightiest phai'oahs, have been rifled or «lestroyed and lie open to reckless travellers ainl native robhers. Hut the tomb of the great patriarch ever has been and stiii is, in onr day, tlie one sepulchre in the Holy Land that has never been entei*ed, and in guarde d with ceaseless vigilance. Tlio very mosqtie, built over it by tbo present lords of the land, has been entered but by two Christians in ourc5ntury, (l:e Prince of Wales and Dean Stanley. And then two thousand soldier's had to protect them against the jealous lury of the natives, all tlio people of llehron were consigned to their bouses, and after ail tho floor of (he mos que was seen, but not tho sacrcd tombs underneuth. And yet there is little doubt that here, beneath a threefold vast dark cave under ground, there rest in peace tho wondrous ancestors of the cfiosen people of Qod. Stupendous walls sur* round the sacred place, wIhto tho Father uf men fii st bought for money a few sqtiaro yards of the promised land, and whore after him was carried in gloomy pomp the lifeless body of Jacob to lie by the side of the Friend ot God, and of the|belov^ wife of his bosom. ^ sacrilegious foot has ever since stepped on this truly holy place; no dariifg hand has ever touched this the greatest of all mysferies in Pales tine, and for well-nigh^ foui^ thousand years now the ruling races of the World have oome to bow in s^escblassw won der and silent adoratmn before the mysterious sepulchres. For, however we may doubt the identity of rive ' and mountain, of temple and of syna gogue, of well, of lake and riv^r—no one in our day can doubt the ido^itity of these humble and yet ^sp pK^ious graves. Here th^ have riwtM^hose immortal futfiers, who #alkcd with Ood as man has uev^ siooo boco able to do, iheltered by theperpetusl honor and inviolability with which the Kaat, in the raidat of ruin and decay, «uiv rounds tho gravoa of Ilia saints. Here they sleep, Abraham and 8arah, Isaae ancf Robekah, Jaoob and Leah—and well msy we ask in awo-stinok marvel, whose eyes will bo blesstHl bv tho sight of the ^aered gravea ana still more sscnnl ashes that have rested here in det^p, unbroken sleep forouunt- less ages. Or shall wo havo to wait for tho day when unseen hands shall roll away the giant stones, bural open the secret chambers in mir mother earth, and oid even tho patriarcha to come forth, to stand in the presence of Ood, lo behold tho Son on His throne, aud to enter into eternal, blessed peace ?—l*rof.
