A KIND
HEART.
The woods were gayly bedecked with
their autumnal foliage, and the robins
had ceased chirping their
but,the brook murmured
sweet lays ;
on, with its
lulling intonation, beneath the rustling
branches of the trees, as happily as it
did when its banks were luxuriant with
summer's green verdure. And it was
by thi tiny rustic bridge that spanned
ithe stream in the shadow of the trees,
'that Nettie, first met Lennox Vale. He
had been listlessly tempting the speck
led trout ih' the stream with his rod
when shej3aroA,down from.1 the cottage
nSar by,oTtch,a pil o'f waf er ; and on
meeting the pretty girl he rose from his
recumbent position, gallantly doffed his
hat, and laughingly demanded her toll
to cross the bridge. She blushed pret
tily, and would have retraced her steps
in dismay had ho not reassured her by
a lew joking words, and .to her astonish
1ment filled her pail and carried it tohe
cottage for, heir. '
That was the way th? y became ac
quainted, and it tyas not long before
both were hopelessly in love with leach
other, although tho sweet' words, had
not yet been spoken which1 would reveal
their passion. Her was handsome, and
being from New York,- poslesvsed the
polished manners of a thor$gh gentle
man, w iiile she, reared in the quiet lit
tle village of Roeelle, was as innocent
and si'niple as a cpuntlry girl could be.
He afterward called at the cottage
where dwelt Widow Borrowdale a
graceful little lady, if possible more
beautiful than her daughter. An air of
mystery surrounded the ipretty widow,
wichas only apparent to Lennox Yale;
but he, too, was a mystery to them, as
the extent of his confidence was that he
was a
New Yorker, rusticating a few
months' for
recreation. He boarded at
the hotel in. the village,- but from the
day he., met Nettie most" of his time was
BTio-nt npiir nor. - V
And thus the happyldays of
summer
ana autumn sped rapidly by.
and cold
bleak winter approached in biting gusts
1 over the Blue Itidge, at the base of
i wlich , the stream wound its sinuous
course. And winters approach brought
, terror to the widow's hearty for she had
been unfortunate all summer ; the bank
in,which she had deposited what little
money, she own ed had laiied
and . left
comma
her penniless. This news she
hicated to Nettie, one evening1, as they
sat in the tihy 1 parlor before the cheer
ful fire, a few minutes after Lennox had
returned to his hotel. j
't do not know yfhat we v shall doj
. Nettie dear," she said, dolefully; 3 ?The
- few - thousand dollars -were . alL your

. money he brought from'England.", '
"From England, mamma ?" queried1

Well, he was," continued Mrs."Borr
rowdale: "The story of mv KfW is an
uphappy oner but J wiU tell it A briefly.:
Your father was tho only child' of Lord
Borrowdale, and I was the daughter of
a "London merchant.'! , My -father and
mother died leavin g me dest ttuta, and I
was obliged to earn my bread by teach
ing in a private seminary. Your father
met me, and falling in . love with each
other, we were married; 3y i

disowned his son, and forbade him ever
to enter the home of his'' childhood days
again.. Your father, Nettie, . was ' as
proud as his unjust parent, and though
we straggled hard at,first for sustenance,
we finally amassed enough money to
carry us over the broad Atlantic, and ! we
found a comfortable home here where
you were born. I
"Welles I declare !" ejaculated the
girl., This. is a revelation to.; me,
mamma. But . my possessing noble
blood does not r alter our situation.
What shall we do?" ;
4,I cannot tell," replied tho widow,
despondingly. . ' ,
The next r day Lennox? called at the
cottage, and Nettie told him their mis
fortune. He tried to comfort her as
' j. . ..' ,
best he could, and then left her. He
called several times after ' that,: but
seemed to -grow less affectionate, as the
time passed by.
He left Eoselle for four months, and
returned again when the flowers were
beginning to bud ;nto beauty with ihe
advance of another spring. By this
timfe Nettie, and her mother were
sorely pressed for money ; they had
Jived comfortably through the winter,
owing to the kindness of the grocer,
who had brought them such groceries
as they needed every week. Mrs. Bor
rowdale had told the man she had not
the money to pay for it; but he smiled,
and saying no money was needed, went
away with her blessing. This had con
tinued until Mr. vale s return inj&Jig,
when the grocer su-alj.

bearing the post-mark of .New xrrrKitfas
handed to Mrs. Borrowdale, and won
dering who her correspondent could be
ad she had never received a letter in the
twenty years she had resided in Amer
ica; she opened and read it. Its. con
tents seemed to perplex her considera
bly ; and her leaving Hosello with Net
tie for New York that same day, per
plexed the villagers "still more. ! !
j Lennox called during her absence,
and he was attired more fastidionsly
than he ever appeared before. There
was an extreme nervousness in his man
ner, too, and when lie found the house
16ckd up, although he appeared to be
disappointed, he breathed a sigh of re-
' lief and went away again. )
Nettie and her mother returned to
Eoselle the next day, and both seemed
to be greatly excited at something which
had occurred. Lennox called again in
the afternoon, and as he approached the
garden he saw Nettie weeding .the
flower-beds.' ! A little cry escaped her
lip3 when she saw him, and she flew to
him with a hearty greeting. Then she
noticed how grave he looked, and a
chill came over her heart when she
thought of his coldness when she. told
him of their poverty. Was he a fortune
seeker, and: thinking her financially
"well off" had been hoping to gain her
and her fortune ? 1 The widow's having
had a comfortable amount of .money in
the bank was no secret, but none knew
of her losses a save Nettie and. Lennox
besides herself. In her innocence Net
tie did hot i imagine that Lennox "was
anything else than a poor man, and il
he proposed she would have accepted
him as such ; but now ' ;
He spoke gravely to her as they wan-
dered in the shade of tho trees in the
garden, and in the course of his conver
sation declared he loved her, and asked
her to be his own. The sweet words of
consent trembled on her lips, but an
instant later a thought occurred to her
that sent the blodd from her face and
left it as white as 6now. She trembled
violently, and with a negative answer
she burst into a passipn of weeping, and
breaking from his embrace ran into the
house. i
He stood still a moment;, utterly
dumbfounded ; then, with contracted
brows, he hurried after her, firmly re
solved, to hear an explanation of her
strange conduct. He found her in the
parlor, weeping on her . mother's breast.
Then a, dim. idea of why she acted as
she ',did crcssed his mind ; but he
said,-;-;. j,', ;:.'.'..; .; ;j f-;

"I cannot tell, Mr. Vale," replied the
widow, coldly. "If you truly loved jtnyj

"I will explain," he replied hurriedly.
"But first, Nettie, if you truly Jove me,

her very soul proved its strength, and

that the bid peer died repentant of his

every means of trying to find him and
bringiag him to his heart and home
again ; but, living quietly in the seclu-.

is not strange that Herbert Borrowdale
never heard from his father, as they
never corresponded. i -

A Scheme to Encoiiriage Wedlock.
1 At the next meeting of the Ontario
legislature application will be made l&tV

of the promoters of the scheme is in a-Llf

sufficient funds in the treasurer's hands:
to pay the sum to. which the newly marv

payments to which he is. liable. The
benefits are that should he marry on the J

that ladies are excluded from the asso

seem to have left physical perfection to

ullef-Proof Yts.
In answer to a correspondent's inquiry.
ai to. where he could obtain a steel
jacket, a New York Sun reporter visited
gunsmiths' shops to learn whether life-
saving apparatus was known to the
trade as well as life-destroying applian
ces. He yisited eight first-class shops
of this kind, and no one in them, hid
ever heard of such steel jackets made
or sold in this country. 'Some "bullet
proof fts4 it was said, hal been made
at one time by a firm in London, which
is now put of the business. Such things
are,tnade row in Paris, and might be
imported. . ' .
At. two shops, one on Broadtfaj, and
the other on Maiden lane, it; was said
that such jackets had been made in
Aniericft. In the Broadway .establish
ment the proprietor ' described a vest
that had been much used," he ' said, by
ifhcers in the late war. The vests were
made to order, and sent to the front.
Privates never bought them, because
they were expensive. Cavalry oflicers
especially bought them, not only, be-
causo they were heavy, but also because
they kept the body as stiff as though
it was in a strait jacket. The tailor's
work was simply to make strong pock
et; on each side , that reached to tho
bottom of hi military jacket in front,
and well around on each side. . Solid
plates ot stfeel were! slipped into the
pockets, and when the jacket was but
toned the , plates met j in front. They
reached from the collar bone to the
gioin., The steel plate was little more
fhan twice as thick as a sheet of blotting
paper. The inventor tested these plates
by putting them into an old jacket,
buckling it around a tree, and firing at
it at point-blank range. . It was found
that a twisting ball from a rifle would
go through them as though they were
sheets of paper, but a pistol ball, even
at close range, would be stopped and
the plate indented. A bayonet or knife
would make no impression. This bullets
proof vest weighed abeut five pounds.
shop it was eaid

in stock, and the
iem to be over anx-
ions to receive an order for one. It was
more bother than it was worth to make
them, he said, since inquiries were
made for such wares only three or four
times in a year. The inquiries always
came irom the southwestern . oiaies.
The vests - were made, the proprietor
said, in New York by e. man in the em
ploy of this firm. The workman's name
the proprietor refused to" divulge; say
ing that the man was an artist in this
and in other ways, and that it it wouldn't
be for the interest of the firm to make
his name public. The skill required to
make these vests, continued the propri
etor, lay in the necessity of making a
garment, cf steel that would fit. the
person so that it could be worn under
the clothing without attracting atten
tion by any bulging, wrinkles, or bag-1
giness'in appearance. The manufacture
of a 6hirt of this armor is begun by
linking four very short steel links fihto.
akc2ntral circlet of steel. These four
links point outward to tho four links of
the compass, and into the outer ends
are linked other steel circlets, and f o
on outward in every direction. By
making the links longer or . shorter, or
by leaving out one hero and there, the
garment, which is sleeveless, is moulded
to the artist's designa.
The Judicious Waters at Carlbad.
Not the least curious part of the effect
of these wonderfully impregnated
waters are the exactly opposite effects
they have on different people. Amus
ing dialogues may frequently be heard
in consequence.. The daughter of a con
spicuous New York publicist had been
drinking from the Fredericksbrunn for
some time, when, meeting a New Yqrk
acnuaintance', a young girl, she aked
in astonishment : "What are you drink
ing from this spring for?" "To get
flesh," promptly responded the other.
'Why," exclaimed the first, indignantly,
"I'm drinking it to cet thin." Then the
f two girls. tore over to their physician, a
celebrated professor from Vienna, and
besetihim for deceiving them. He ex
plained that the water on certain con
stitutions would have one effect and
upon' another a directly opposite. The
girls retired, by no means convinced of
this miraculous discrimination of the
springs, but at the fnd cf four weeks
the doctor was justified. The stout girl:
had lost seventeen pounds of flesh and
the delicate girl had gained nine. ..
