(Vdar Grove, X. C. e NOT L VAIN. BY LOIS. He Was only a farmer, tall, hand some and strong, with a breadth of cbost and swelling muscles that would have been an admiration to tbe an cient Greeks and Romans. There was a restless look in his eyes ; but his attitude was one: of native grace and carelessness, as he leaned against the ponderous bars of a gate across the road ..wh ere it divQjgefrom the across the v stream to the house be yond.. He was expecting some one, and was softly whistling to himself, " I am- sitting on the stile Mary." Over and over he whistled it ; but the sorrows of the Irish emigrant were not iouclnng his heart, for he grew impatient as the sun. sank lower- till the shadow fell on the earth, and on ly the tree tops were burnished with his golden light, and then a quick light step was heard rustling the withered .leaves as a beautiful dainty creature cipne in sight. And if Luke Aubrey,' had been standing there waiting for her a year, t would have felt himself amply rewarded by the gladldylc of surprise that she flashed upon liiin. " Why are you so late, Mary ?" he asked, as he advanced with the eager haste of a lover to meet her. " I have been waiting for you an hour." " An hour,?1' she repeated. " How did you know that. I was to have been back jn that time ?" " Because I sent for you," Le an swered, with a merry twinkle in his eye. "I bribed a little ragamuffin to tell you that your mother desired your services at the cow-pen and in the kitchen at half past four precisely, which!. positively knew she did." " How dared you do anything so impertinent?" she asked, laughing. "I wanted to see you, darling," he answeredj ; and his yoice changed to Isober tenderness. ' . - The; slight trembling pressure of the little fingers upon the broad palm ' that covered hers sent a thrill to his heart ai;d a great choking lump in his throat ;-i for he loved her better than all. the world beside, and he had - .come to say " good by " loved her with a jealous devotion, for he asked after a pause I " Was Carson at the quilting to- day, Mary?" " Yes,!' she answered, wondering why he asked. " And why didn't he bring you home?" ' " He did come a part of the way." she said. , y ; . . . " Why didn't he come all the WTay," he asked persistently. H " He, I, I told himi- " "Told him what, dear?" and he bent his head, lower. "Told him I loved you," she saidj softly.", - ' - '. - Impulsively he drew her head to his slioulder, and kissed her tenderly, reverently. " I can guess ,why yon told him that, Mary ; and I am half inclined to bo sorry for. him, though I hate him iutenselv." xt O Luke," she said sadly, " I am afraid your intense hatreds will bring you into trouble some day." He laughed lightly. "Some day! YVhy,- Mary, they have. brought me hito t'rouble times without mention ; but would you have me love a scoundrel who. takes advantage of every opportunity and circumstance to worry you ; who would make your life and mine a living death, who would Mary. I I am going away to-moi row," he said desperately. " I can staud no sort of chance with your father, I don't know that I could, even if there were no wealthy rival to contend with. Everybody says I am wild and reck less. - No one believes in me but you. Even in my father's household from my youth up, I have been consider ed a sort of Pariah I despise the plow Father has boys enough to scatter the grain, reap, sell, and hoard, as he has done all his hfe : if he had given me an education, or let me work; io-piy my own tuition, I might not have been an Ishmaelite; but he has kept me cabined, cribbed, con fined till I think, darling, that I care for no one but you, and that I hold no place in any heart but yours. iLook up, my .Mary, and let me gaze for the last time into the eyes that are my des tiny. It ranv be years before- I can look into them as I do now, hold your hand in mine and tell you that I love you, love you, love you, Mary," he pleaded, "don't look as if I had bro ken your heart already. Speak tome, one word ,of love or hope." But the blue eyes gazed helplesslv in his; and the pale hps refused to speak' ; ' ; . "Mary, I will come back, come back7 sometime, and claim you in spite of them all. But it is geti ing late. You will be massed, and JJurfpi dearest, I dare not stay longer.'' Still she spoke not; the shxfjpw of an undefinable' sorrow had fallen on her heart. "Am I to go, and no good bye ?" he asked; and he drew her close to him, while the tears fell like rain on her up -turned face. ' ' v "Yes,! you must go now, Luke," she spoke at last; and the 'voice was husky and full ol pain. . "Goolby, and Got! bless you! God keep yqu in the wa'; you should go. And remem ber my last prayer shall ' be for you, my best thought, but one, of you. Kiss me, Luke,, kiss me, and go." A few. moments later, and she was standing alone gazing at the opening in-the woods where Luke Aubrev had disappeared. Nearer arid nearer drew the shadows, the cold November shad ows, creeping up from the Eastern hills, shutting out the golden glorious sunlight, shutting in the ' earth, shut ting in the girl. But harj thiough the still evening air comes the dull heavy sound of a blow, and a shriek that is scarcely moral in its agony. - For one instant a stunning sensation came over her,, as if she herself were the victim. The next she was speeding rapitlly in the direction of the sounds. She knew instinctively wha-t had hap pened. I God pity hex; God pity them all;! for, with-a bloo.1 -bespattered cudgel! iu his -hand, Luke Aubre bent abWe the prostrate lifeless form of Carson. While Mary,-mute with borrow, stood before him like an avenging angel; ;ud Luke Aubrey -r who had never be fore turned his back on danger or death and who had faced both in a hundred ways turned and fled from the dead body of the man he had slain and the grief-stricken face of the woman whose heart, he jhad broken. Alone in the gloom and solitude, alone" with' the murdered man and Luke Aubrey . the murderer ! JHere her father found her in. a state that was neither consciousness nor un consciousness; for a numb, dead feel ing of borrow and dispair had taken possession of every faculty. No word escaped herT lips; no answer to any question. There were no tears; no sign of any feeling. They carried her home, and for w eeks the' passed noise lessly in and out at hei chamber door and spoke in low tones about her bed. No one who saw the pale, pale face that pressed the white pillow, thought that the beautiful white head would ever again be raised. Luke Aubrey had been arrested on suspicion,-; and he now lay scared less alive than Mary, awaiting his trial which was? fast approaching. There were few witnesses against him. The principal ones were a hoy, who carried the surreptitious message from Luke to Marv t6 be at home that fatal after noon between four and five o'clock, and Mary who lefthe house of a neighbor in com pany with the mur dered man, and who was found beside his body. It was well known thoughout the neighborhood that the two men were rivals andj that Mary favored Luke and that her father favored Carson. Many couhl testify to the open hatred which they; bore each other. ! Carson never mentioned Luke but in terms of lowest scurrility, which Luke resen ted in a spirited manner. But that could scarcely be brought tc bear in the evidence. Tbe public was much divided in its sentiment, j Old men who have sowed their wild pats have very little patience with young men who are sowing. The old men of this neighborhood were no exception : and many of them had severely ce;nsured Luke's conduct and fallen under the keen lash of his satire! Indeed, there was nothing low or mean or miserly jthat escaped 'him. He had torn into shreds the tenets of the Pu ritan and the Phylactery of the Phar isee.. -(Did you ever think what a large ckssjof such mon there are in a hese All cried out with one voice, leeathtof Carson was a piece ol hoitbie Dutcnery: Lmke Aubrey is the gtity . .man. Let the law take its courd. .Tooth for tooth eye foy eye life fr life.t i But the young people said, "Luke is a splendid felh v, chivalrous as a knight of the oldeh time; and, if Luke was the man who spick the blow, hje had sufficient prWccation. They knew how . fri-bsslvJjTolent" ('arson luTelvas a gen 1 v eral favorite; for he was wild, daring, foremost in a hunt or inenwmaking, genial, : courteous true to his word, constant in friednship, generous to a fault. ; At length the day of the trial arri- rived and into a court room densely crowded with intensely interresteel and excited men, Luke Aubrey was brought. Not a vestige of bis former glorious manhood ' remained. His -' . 1 form was thin, and bowed as ' if the weight of years rested upon him. His step, which only a few weeks bef fore was so firm and elastic. ,was now slow and haltiug. A murmur of surprise and pity ran through the crowd, as he passed painfully on to his seat iu the prisoners' dock. The trial began. Witness after witness was examined: but the prison er evinced no more interest than if they were playing a game of chance,; with onlv a few dollars at stake instead of a human life, aud that life his own-. His eyes, restless and eager, wan dered toward the. door of the court, room. Mary, he knew, was to be .the principal witness; and what mattered life or death to him if he had lqat her love ! I ' "She was .coming at last,; and he half arose from his seat and rested his manacled hands on the railing. Com ing ! Ah, me ! and at sight of her he sank back, week as a helpless infant. Had he taken the life of only one that evening in the 4?ll fods Va4 the pale, shadowy woman Mary, his Mary? O, the agony that wrung his heart! He had killed her: he knewj it as surely as though her confined j form lay before him. Supported by her father's arm, she j moved mechanically on, looking nei: j tiler to the right nor to the left, gaz-' ing straight forward into vacancy. Tears came into the eyes of strong men when the' saw the wreck of the beautiful girl -they had known from her infancy. Not the Judge on the Bench, not the stern 1 welvo jurors in the box, not one of them but pitied her, and would have spared her if they could. Amid breathless silence the exami nation commenced. ' "Were you at the house of JoVn Marsden on the day of the murder ?" "Yes." ' V "Was Carson there ?" ' "Yes." "At "what hour did you leave to re turn home ;?" ., "At four o'clock iu the afternoon." "Did you receive a message, pur porting to be from your mother, to leave at that hour ?" ' The answer was inaudible ; and the question was repeated : "Did you receive such a message?" "Yes." "Did 3rou leave in company with Carson ?" She hesitated. The lawyer stood patiently, he would give her time. Sud denly she turned towards the Judge. "Will your Honor give me permis sion to ask one question?" "Yes," he answered. . "Is it my testimony only mine -that must condemn or acquit him ?" And the beautiful face, the dilated mournful eyes, the pleading pathos of that voice, would have gained for her in that court room anything those men could have granted, and they told her "yes." She arose and walked unrestrained to where Luke sat She bent down and kissed his forehead, passed her hand carressingly over bis head, and said, "I love you, Luke," as a forgiv ing, sorrowing, mother might have said to an offending child. Then gently they led her back. She sat down and covering her head with her shawl, res ted it on the table .before her. Two, three, five minutes passed, and she still sat motionless? "Miss Ashton," some one called. There was 110 response. "The witness has fainted, perhaps;" and one stooped and raised her head. neighborhood?) A exclamation of. horror echoed through the court-rjxm; for on the fair face, in characters, that only the great Judgement Day would obliter-1 ate, was written Death. Tdie prayer that had absorbed all others, that echoed ceaselessly tlu'ough her heart for weeks:' "O, God, let me die, that aiy lips may not bear witness against him," was mercifully answered. "She is dead," they said.' Dead! And Luke Aubiey repeated the word I3er time he Was restored to semi-consciousness. ! "Luke Aubrey is insane," the doc tors' said; and so it proved.. For two years he. was an inmate of a Lunatic Asylum. Then he came back, and took up the thread of life which the sight of a, dear dead face bad broken. With the memory of Mary's love, her beautiful life, and withal her sad death ever with him, he gave his life to Hhn who came to save the chief of sinners, and as the Master so was the servant. For years after, when among one of the wildest heathen tribes of Central Asia, Luke Aubrey, the missionary found a lone and quiet grave. A cen vert from heathenism placed above it a wooden cross, and carved upon it in rude letters, "He went about doing good." And there it stood in the soli tude of a desert, the cross wifh the characters, a mistery to the caravans that camped1 around the lowly mound. And so what Mary Ashton would perhaps'have failed to accomplish in life, she did in teath. She died not in vaiii. A Boy's Pocket and a GiiTs Pocket. Tommy is twelve years old. "His sister jIary is sweet sixteen and a half The other morning Mary accosted her mother with, "Ma, see what a lot. of stuff I found in Tommy's pockets." And she deposited on the table the fol lowing articles, to wit: Eight marbles, one tfp, a broken bladed knife, a leath er strap, a buckle, bunch of ke3's, a fishing line, piece of lead, a smooth stonc' four pieces of slate pencil, a worn out pocket book, an oyster shell, a wounded jewsharp, a piece of blue glass, a rubber ball, lump of chalk two dried, fish worms, a sling-shot, piece of India rubber, two corks!, a fractured comb, piece of licorice root, a sonlg book, two rredals and a juve nile land tourist. Tommy looked thoughtfully, as the contents of his pockets were deposited before the eyes of his mother, and .sullenly remarked that it "was none of j Sis' business, and he iust wanted her to let his trowsers t i . alone." 1 i ' ; " Next day Tommyj capturod the out side pocket of his sirters dress, - and carrying the contents to bis mother sarcastically observed in the presence of Mary: "Ma, just see What a lot of trash I found in gis'j pocket !" and he produced from his hat the following knick-knacks, viz: Three hair pius, a soiled glove, iece lot chewing-gum, three! cards, a broken locket, elastic garter, piece of ribbon, two slaie pen cils, another piece of phewing-gum, photograph, piece of orange skin, a love letter, broken tooth brush, more chewing-gum, spool -of silk, a thimble, a piece of cotton saturated with white powder, one nickel, two sour bails, gai ter heel, ivory ornament belonging to a parasol handle, handkerchief per fumed with jocky-club, gaiter buttoner, withered geranium, leaves, ivory pen knife with a broken! blade, a fan, five visiting cards, belt-buckle, box ol rouge,' another piece of chewing-gum, fragment of looking-glass, a peach- stone, '-Char a cigar holder stolen from ie,'' a piece of damaske silk of the pattern of her friend Lucy's new. dress,1 an; artificial flower, horse-hair5 ring, a long brown hair entangled in a hunk of taffey, and a slip of paper con taining direction for handkerchief flir- tations. i rp Tomm3r placed the last article on the table and slid from the room with a gi in of triumph, on liis rouguish face. i '. - " A Sunday School child, beirg asked why God made the flowers of the field, replied, "Please, jma'ma, I suppose for paterns for artificial flowers." 1 r j. Seqond thoughts are the adopted children of experience. Kind words are better than gold, and the voice of a friend has saved many a man from ruin. Greeiiland Courtship. When the Danish missionaries had j secured the confidence of the Green-; landers, marriage was made a religious ceremony. ormerly the man mar ried the woman, as the lioman did'the Sabine; women, by force. One of the missionaries, writing in his journal, describes the style of Christian court ship as follows : : The suitor, coming to the mission- ar,v3aid".I-should-like io have tSu vTTIc. "Whom ?'" asks the missionary. The man names the wouiau. . 'Hast thou spoken to her '?" : Sometimes the man will answer, " Yes ; she is hot unwilling, but thou knowest w-omankind."i ; More frequently the answer; is, "No." "- " Wby not ?"f " It is difficult ; girls are prudish. Thou must speak to her.''! The missionary summons the girls, and after a little converstioh, says, " I think it is time to have thee married." " I won't marrv." " What a pity ! I had a suitor for thee." ' ; - " Wliom V" The missionary names the man who has sought his aid. " lie is good for nothing. I won't have him. "I3ut," replies tbe missionary, :" he is a good provider ; he throws his harpoon with skill ; and h loves thce." Though listening to his? praise with evident pleasure, the girl answers, " I won't have him.'' " Well, I'll not force thee. I shall soon find a wife for such a clevrr fel low." The missionary remains silent, as though he understood her " no " to have decided the matter. At last with, a sigh, she whispers, " Just as thou wilt have it, misson- ary . " No," replies tne clerg'yman, " as thou wilt ; I'll not persuade thee.!' Then with a deep groau comes a " Yes,'' and the matter is settled. A Iteletqn iii Svery House. Tbe origin of the above is briny this : A young student at Naples, be lieving himself to be dying, and fear ing the news of his death would break tbe heart of bis widowed mother, who passionately .loved him, after much re flection adopted the following device : lie wrote to his mother and told her be was ill, and a soothsayer hadrfore told that be could not recover until he were a shirt made by a woman who had no trouble in fact, who was per fectly happy and contented. The widow, in her simplicity, thought that attaining such a garment would be an easy task ; but after making inquiries from friends, found that each had a secret care. At last , she heard from several sources of a lady surrounded by every comfort, and possessing a husband wha seemed to think of noth ing but making her' happy. The old lady hastened to her and made known her wish ; the lady made no reply, but took the visitor into an adjoining closet, where she was horror-struck to see a skeleton suspended, from abeam.. "For twenty years have I been mai ried," said the lady. " I was forced to marry my husbsind while loving an other ; shortly alter our wedding my former love came one evening to bid me farewell forever ; my husband 'sur prised us together, and instantly stab ed him, whom he unjustly suspected, to the heart ; he then caused bis skel eton to be preserved, and every day makes me visit it." . Tbe widow con cluded that no one was -without troub le, and, as her son had desired, she became reconciled at the idea of. his loss. Every one has troubles there is a skeleton in every' house. ' l- : - An Engaging Manner. Politeness' is to a man what beauty is to a woman. It creates an instan- stantaneou3 impression in his behalf, while tbe opposite quality exercises as quick a prejudice against him. The politician who has fhi3 advantage easily distances all his rival candidates, I for every voter he speaks with becomes instantly his mend. Polished man ners have often made scoundrels suc cessful, while the best of men, by their hardness and coldness, have clone themselves incalculable injury the shell being so rough ' that the world could not believe ther was a precious kernal within it. Had Ral- 1 La l iL. J eign never nung uis coat iu me muu for the proud Elizabeth to walk on, his career in life would scarcely have been what it was: though no one can be successful in life with pleading manners alone. A ple'asing trait of character .is well- worth cultivating.
