heartcd Edard Liviiigs;on j died. That
' ' almost crushed her, but ste bore up
for the sake ot his son ber bright eyed,
golden-haired Eddie.
And now Eddie was gone. And
since the day tile y laid Iiiui beside his
' father, all her energy t was gene. All
ber hopes and iuterests in life left "ber
and all day long the lay topon the sofa
'Y or tat in a dep lounging chair in her
darkened chaiube vfcaicaly ei ting fo d
enough to sustain life, refusing to see
any friend except her own family, and
renting all entreaties to go out for a
breath of ir. '
And here hersis'er, 51 Maxwell,
found her, ns -hcameote bright mom-
" 1112. and 1 ringine a breath of Heaven's
freeh loveliness into the clofe, perfumed
and lu'tit'e' chamber,
"Come, Helen, do come out for a lit
tie ride," the eutreated. "I've brought
my own earriuge and ponies', arid .I'll
drive you myself. It is such a lovely
Rioriiiiipl Please, Helen "
But Helen only turned, wearily on
her si'fa, , "
' No, no, Sue! How can you ask
" in r . ' . '
'It will do you good, Helen," plead
ed Sue.
. "Won't want to be done good. I
only want to be let alone. I never want
to leave this room until I'm earned out
us poor little Kdd:e jrax," moaned Hel
en. 1
'J 'Andvtbjt jron'tbe Jon?, I'm think
ing, if you are allowed to go on in this
fashion,'' muckered Sue,, under her
breath, while she mid aloud, using a last
argumi nt, "l'lse couie, He'en. We'll
diive out to L .iirel IL11 and tike soxe
fljwirs to Edward' an d Eddie.''
Uut still the ,moun,er only sighed,
"No, Sue, no !" I send flowers out every
day. Hut I cau't go myself; don't
teaee me, Sue."
- Poor Sue stood still, ber brLht eyes
full of tears, looking at her cister for a
little while. Then sh? turned alru'ptly
and left the room without another word.
And sbo drove her pretty ponies straight
to the house of a dear old'' Quaker
friend in two senses into whose pres
ence she carried her petition,
"Aunt Ilachsl, do please go and see
Helen !" she 'egged. ' I can't doany-
thing with her none of us can, and if
you cau't I don't know hat will became
ot Ber I"
V "Thee knows I will do what I can,"
ft 1 . 1 T m .
. eoiiiy returned itaeftel Iiah-ymple. "Sit
thee down here and tell me all about
Hlon."
And hating heard, Aunt Rachel
donned her dove-culored plumage, and
went in Sue's carriage to the mourner's
borne.
"The scrvauts, will not want to admit
you, but don't be denied," taid Sne as
Aunt Rachel got out.
The dear bid Jady nodded, and when
i . . lL- J- ' . . . . .. -.
lueuworwas opened sue walked in at
once. t
1 haya coma to, see Helen Living
6tone," she sd.
"Mrs. Livingstone does not see vist
tors," exclaimed the waiter.
"She will pee me. I will not trouble
'thee to go with me,' Bhe. f aid, as she
continued straight op to Helen's dark
ened chamber,
Entering with a soft tap, sne crossed
the room and took Helen a thin, .white
hand.
"I have come to see thee, Helen,
the said, softly. "Bnt I cannot say
do see thee thy chamber is too dark
dear."
- She walked at once to the windoT,
and drew aside iho beavy curtains; let
ting in a flood of golden sunlight.
''Oh, the light," moaned Helen, turn
ing away her head.
"We cannot live without the light,
my dear," said Aunt Rachel, returning
to a seat close beside Helen.. "Now
Helen," she! said, gently, "I am older
than thee, and I've beeu through the
deep waters of tribulation. Tell me a!
thy troubles, and I will help thee if
can." .' .'
The gentle words and tones went to
l.
Helen's Wart, and she burt into a tor
rent of s'icb tean as she had not shed
before since her bereavement.
Two or . three boora Aunt Rachel
staid, and continued her tender minis
trations, and when 'she left she bad
wdn from - Helen a promise that she
wouIJ no longer.; nurse her 'sorrow in
selfish loneliness, but "go ahout in the
world and endeavor do the duties btill
" "If tnTe tries io"do right, tnee fffiudT
there is some happiness left yet," said
gentle Aunt Rachel. And thought
Helen did not quite be'ieve that she
could ever be happy, she knew her
wealth afforded her large means of do
ing good and for that she would try to
lite.
A few months later the winter snow
had covered E Idie and his father with
aribe of spotless white, and it was near
th(i happy Christmas-tide.
More than one humble home in the
groat city had been brightened by Hel
ens generous Christmas gifts, and she
be; 'an to take some pleasure' in these
pleasant cut ies.' "
i The day before Christmas she had
word of an anged and bedridden relative
across the river, on the Jersey side, and
she :lat oncejwent over to see her.
Ah she stepped upon the ferry boat to
return she found it very crowded and
with difficulty gat a seat next to p!ain,
neat country woman who had with btra
little fellow of five or six years, and
Helen's heirt thrilled as she looked at
the little-face with its bright blue eyes
and golden hair, for it bore quite a re-
serablence to the dear face of her lost
Eddie.'
She could nit help speaking to the
child, and trying to win it to her, and
presently she had him upon b3r knee.
Wlif id vrinr Ittfla Knv nnmA
she said, addresMog the woman.
"KdJia Hamilton," said the stranger,
with a tih, and Heltpsi: hears1 thrilled
again at the familiar name.
'But he's not my child, Le's an oi-
an," continued the woman.
"Ah 1" commented Helm, interested
at ont-e.
"No ma'am, he's not mine. His moth
er was a widew, and came to Brookville,
where I live, a year ago next March.
She was very poor, and she had a little
house right next to us, and tried to make
er-living with ber needle. But she
made her death, ma'am, that's what she
made and we couldn't bear to see the
ittle chap suffer, and him not a friend
in the world, as we k 00 wed of, so we took
him, me and.my John, and we've kept
im ever since.'' '
"We can't ma'am. We're poor, hard
working folks, and we've got five chil
dren of our own. John had a bad ful
last week he can get about the house,
but the doctors say he won't be able to
work a lick this r. inter. It don't stand
to reason that we could keep an ex'ra
one. and be just to the rest, does it, ma'
am ' ?"
"No, indeed," returned Helen, polite-
y r
"That's what's taking me to the city
to-day." returned the woman. "We
hated to do it, me and John did, awful
bad, but we didn't see no other way to
do, so I'm a taking him to the Orphan
Asylum. Do you think they'll be good
to him, ma'am?"
A thought . whiuh had struggled in
Helen's heart for the last few minutes,
found expression now.
"I don't know,'' she said, eagerly,
'but I do know some one who would !
You say you are poor I am rich, and I
am widowed and childless. I have late
ly lost my husband and my little Eddie,
anm I am alone and lonely. Give mc
your little Eddie, and I will tove him
nnd be good to him, and bring him up as
iny own child !"
"Are you in'earnest, ma'am ?' asked
the countrywoman.
"Indeed I am! He looks lue my lost
Eddie that h what firt made me no
tice him and it seems to me as if Heav
en bad sent him to me. He is my Christ
mas present. Ob, do let me have him f'
can't say no, ma'am. I am sure he
will have a happy home with you," re
plied the woman.
"Go with me and see? cried Helen
"Your John would approve, I am sure,
Please tellme yo4r name."
, "Reynolds is my name."
"Mine is Livingstone. Now, Mrs.
Reynolds you shall go home with me

the Orphan Asylum, and you t-hall see
what I will do for little Eddie. Oh, 4
am so happy to have bun l" And as
Helen hugged the child to" her silken
bosom, she did, indeed, feel that he was,
in some measure, ber lost Eddie restored,
i So when WrsT L'vingstone's elegant
carriage met her on the city side of the
ferry, she took Mrs. Reynolds and little
Eddie to her handsome home.. And over

For Helen proposed to adopt and ed

after all, an Edward Livingstone might

Thpories almost without nam-

why young ladies do not snore,
Mr. Darwin thinks that no one
snores unless he sleeps lying on
his personal back, and that inas-
much as girls always sleep coiled
up atter the custom ot cats, ttiey
could not snore even if they were
willing to descend such a depth of
baseness. This explanation- is
