"Lotchen, promise me one thing and we will epeak . no more of the cloud which the Lord has seen fit to cast over your youug life.' Promise me that you will take what care you can of your little brother Karl, and teach him to be good, that some day I. may hold you both again, mine for fevet audevcr." Liotcnen was-.uima, ana ine poor, gen tle hard-working mother, as she felt her self growing weaker day by day, often wondered what would become of her children when she was really gone, for they Jiad no . relations, and very few friends.,.':....;' 'i-:V '. ' : " " Three weeks longer(she went abou her daily work, and then sank so gradu ally that it was like night coming oh it is dark almost before the sun has set. All at once she gave up work, and Lotchen and Karl were left alone in their dreary little dwelling,' and very, very desolate it was, too. She would do her; best for Karl's sake, and some day she Would give him back again to her mother, where there was no more cold nor poverty- nor sickness. But what was there in all the world that Bho could do ? For they were yery, very poor, and Karl could, as yet, dp very little to help. In her loneliness and dosolation, she often sought the church, which was not far from their humble dwelling, for .the graiid old notes of the organ comforted and cheered her so. She was very fond of music and could sing iu her own un tutored way many a sweet tuue. One day, on being more deeply stir red thap usual at the glorious music as it crept around her, there came into Lotcheu's heart, for the first time an un accountable delight as she listened to the sweet voice of the choristers, and wondered while the thought which had so suddenly dawned upon her almost took her breath away ah 1 if she could learn to sing I even her poor, sightieas, j aioa OAfkltlAn ' new hope, as she whispered 'self: see you. Do you think I could learn to sing in your choir?" "Can you sing, my-chili? and what is yonr name?" "Lotchen Bremer, and we are very poor. My mother is dead, and she left my little brother in my care, and I thought 1 could help a little." "Brave child ! I will see what I can do for you. To-morrow I will try your voice. Came at this hour." And they parted. . Tbe next day Lotchen was in her ac customed place, . where the organist found her, and led her to the loft. At first he tried her on a few low note?, un til she should gain courage, and then little by little he brought out tones mors rich, and when, she ceased, the master turned, and placing his hand, upon her head said : ,"You will have your wish, my child, you will yet sing in this choir." . ; Lotchen was almost wild with joy. It was late when she returned borne and found Karl anxiously waiting her com ing. " '-' j, , She would not tell him now.. She would keep her secret well. With his assistance she prepared the evening meal, he never di earning what made her steps so much lighter, or tho voice so cheerful. By and by he would know. Six years went by, bringing seed-time and harvest, summer and winter, ac cording to the promise of God, and into Lotchen's sightless life had come a har vest of gladness out of her new found talent that only He could know. There was to be a solemn service "in the little church. As the time drew near, the ; people flocked from all quarters. Every corner of the building was brilliantly lighted. It had become a sacred place, that lit tle Gothic church, with itacarved old pulpit, black with age, and the choir loft, and the very high-back pews. : ? "The "Hallelujah chorus" pealed from the organ grandly, and the choir stood up to sing. - ; The' words seemed to dance -for very joy as she sung those victorious notes. Then came the words of "peace and rest,'V aud they always seemed to carry her away from all cold, ' and poverty, and loneliness; to that land Where her dear mother must be waiting and watching for Karl and her. What aglov of color was on her cheeks as 'she' closed I And to more than one in that little company how sin gularly beautiful she was I - ; ' Behind one of the quaint old pillars sat a stranger, who in breathless silence had listened to every note, and who now sent a. request upon a slip of paper that she should sing in the ,4Stabat Mater," a piece of which she was passionately fond. Although this waa unknown to bim, she acquiesced and poured her very soul into it, and when she stopped, he drew a long breath, and retired from the building. . . ; ; When the service was over and the company dispersed, the chapel-master went to Lotchen as she was about to leave, and taking her thin, white hand Sn his, told her that the stranger of the night had come all the way from Leip sic to find a voice like hers to sing in the cathedral there, and that he, was ready to pay ber any sum if she would only. i'Lotcheii'a face grew ashen white, and he aeemed like one suddenly lowered down as sh answered': ?Dear master, bow can I go t All my me J ' iiio MBa occu tag uwure f vy j " i and i my success; because I am Mind.
