And wa tmconselous of the symmetry of her small hand and feet. To their beauty she attached no importance, and thought only 6t the plain face on which so many of her ac quaintances remarked. Sho had paesod the evening at a balL and while dancing a quadrille had heard a gentlemaa in the next set say: "Isnt the lady in blue and white the one we hoard sing no divinely at Mrs. Springer's?" The reply of his partner came distinct ly to Lucille's oars: "Which young lady? It was the plain Miss Barstow we heard sing. Yes, she ia dressed in blue and white, I see. She is the same." How well Lucille remembered every word! She could sing. No one ever de nied the sweetness and strength of her voice, and she had sung her best at Mrs. Springer's. No wonder Geoffrey Wayne had remembered it. Few could forget tho beauty of that clear voice, but Lu cille would have willingly bartered hor voice for a lovely face. At laet. the weary girl turned off the gas, and went to bed; but it was kmg before ehe could find rest in sleep. Breakfast was nearly over when Lu cille appeared in the dining room the next morning. Her grandmotbec and sister were just rising from the table. , "Mercy, eis!" cried Emily, how swollen your eyes ajse, and you look like a ghoet! It doesn't improve your ap pearance wry much to look eo woe be gone." "I am not always studying my ap pearance," answered Lucille, taking a seat at tho table. "Lucille, Geoffrey Wayne spoke to mo last night of the excellence of your sing ing at Mrs. Springer's," said Mrs. Bar stow. "Yes, I heard him speak of it," said Lucille, with a bitter smile, for she re membered that she had also heard the answer of hia partner in the quadrille. "But dont let his praise caus9 you to lutvc hopoa of fiuwrinating him," laughed Emily, "for I have entered the lists, and naturally you will have no chance.' "Naturally, of course," said Lucille. "Emily, dont fret Lucille this morn ing. She looks half sick," 6aid Mrs. Bar stow, with a fond look at the beauty, whom she idolized. "I am wholly sick," said Lucille, push ing away her coffee cup. "I wish there was some place on tma eartn wnerei could go with the certainty of not hear ing the changes rung on my uglmees." "I am afraid there is no such blissful 6pot," said Emily. "But I must be off to drees, for Geoffrey Wayne is to call thi3 noon. This is November. I will wager a pair of gloves to you, Lucille, that I have a chance of becoming Mrs. Wayne before January."

Catarrh being a consxitu tional disease, requires a constitu- ona white dimpled had in weloncna to this tall, glden haired fellow who was so sought after in society. "Where is your sister? I hoped to have the pleasure of hearing her sing," Mr. Wayne said whea be at last arose to go, . "She has a headache. Indeed, she ie a perfect martyr to all the petty iTJa t which flesh is heir," replied Emily. "She cares very little for society, and seldom receives morning calls," she added. That night Lucille came into her grand mother's room, and knelt beside the low chair in which the old lady sat She did not speak, aad her face looked worn and sad. , ' . ..; . 'What is the matter, Lulie? Has any thing gone wrong?" asked Mrs. Barstow, kissing the upturned brow of her grand daughter. . "Everything is wrong, grandma. I am leading a vain, useless life, and I am tired of it. What does it all amount to this continual round of balls and pax ties? It brings no peace, no joy to me and I am sure I bring no joy to any one else. I hear myself spoken of every where as 'the plain Miss Barstow.' It ia thus that I am distiniruished from Emily Let me go somewhere else, dear grand ma. Let me try to be happy in my own way." "Where do you wish to go, Lucille?" asked the old lady gravely. You know Amy Winter, my old schoolmate, who lives ia Barnstowa? Let me go there for a few months. She and her mother live very quietly, and I know they would be quito willing to have me board with them. I could eul- tivate my voice, and here. I am not happy. I am restless, unsatisfied. I want, I really need a change." My highest ambitioa ia to make the orphan children of my poor boy happy, said Mrs. Barstow in a sad tone, "l can not forset that he oonsighed them to my care with his dying breath. , You Bhall do as you wish, Lucille; but you will be practiced all her old taiuuc, wt rt j book wtkh came iu her way and did a large amount of worsted work. But after a v?hile time dragged very heavily. The Email circulating library was exhausted, aod every bureau and mantlo in the bouee was supplied with wonted mats. The days grew weary again, and Lucille began to question whether she was mak ing a better use of her life in Barri-towa than she had made ia her owa home. During this eeaaon of doubt a letter came from Eonily containing great news. 'oirgratulate me, dear La," eo the letter ran, "for I have bagged my bird. Yes, I am actually engaged to that gold ea haked Adonis. Geoffrey Wayne, aod have a solitaire diamond three times ae large as the one Will Oorham gave Mol UePTiohard. I was undecided at first between Geof aad Count Laaon do you remember him? Oh, such dark, languishing eyes and such a thrilling voice! Bot he is poor, and I am not adapted for love in a cottage. It would not suit me eves with the count as wor shiper. If his old aunt in France would but die conveniently and leave him a fortune t Bit she won't, of course, and Geof is richer than she is anyhow. He is madly ia love with me. Wont you like him for a brother-ta-law? When I am married you and grandma can live as humdrum as you please; and you needn't vegetate into the country to avoid being overshadowed by me. The count told me last night that I had a face like availing star. Wasn't that pretty? Oh, dear, how I wish he were rich! Geof is too dignified to say such things. Send me your congratulations, little plain face. Your turn may come soma time. Love in a cottage might suit you admirably; but for heaven's sake don't marry one of those Barris town pumpkins Amy used to tell about." "What a different letter I should write to her if I should become engaged!" murmured Lucille, allowing the epistle to fall in her lap. "But then Emily and I are not at all alike." Then she drew her chstr to the center table, opened her desk and began the congratulatory letter required of her. When it was finished sno took it to the poetoffice herself, for she felt the need of a brisk walk. On her way home she bought a newspaper, and when she reached her own room again threw her self on a comfortable lounge, and began to read. Almost the first thing her eye fell upon was an advertisement for a gov erned: "Wanted, a governess for two small children. House in the country. Good salary. English branches only required. None but homely women need apply. Address Mrs. Julia Lamotte, Wildwood Park, Queenstown." Over and over again did Lucille read this singular advertisement. She knew that none but foolish women ever in serted such strange productions, and vvundercd what kind of a person Mrs. Lamotte could be. "She must be jealous of her husband, and won't throw temptation in his way in the shape of a pretty governess," Lu cille thought. "I wonder if I would prove homely enough to suit her. I hardly think she would be jealous of 'the plain Miss Barstow,'" and the girl glanced ia the long mirror which hung opposite her. "At any rate, I mean to try for the situation. .1 am tired of the dull monotony of my life here, and yet I can't go back to the old one, only to go through that dreary round of pleasure seeking and dissipation. What an ex perience it will be to go out as a gov erness!' I will tell Amy at once." Of course Lucille met with opposition from her friends. Tbey thought she would find the life of a governess very irksome- and that her grandmother wouldn't approve of the plan at alL "But I can leave the place wheoever.I nlesse. aad I don't intend to tell grand ma a word about H. You can forward all her letters to me, and I will send all my lettepvto you to post here. She will never know that I am not with you, and I am bent on being Mrs. Lamotte's gov erness if Mrs. Lamotte will have me. So dont try to stop me." " Mrs. Winter and Amy at length ceased to oppose the wishes of their guest, and Mrs. Lamotte's answer to Lucille's letter having been favorable, she found her self a week later oa her way to Queens town.

So anxious was Mrs. Lamotte to Bee whether the homeliness of her new gov erness was as pronounced as she wished it to be that she came herself to the hall door when the carriage arrived, aad af ter one glance into Lucille's face gave her a cordial greeting and led the way to a handsome parlor. "Do you admire my home?" she asked when Lucille had divested herself of her traveling wraps. BHOOKLT2. Oct. 1L nA.uk the vast audiences whieh crowd the Brook lyn Tabernacle at every service are largo n ambers oi young urea, many of whom are theological stadeata. Dr. Talxoatre'a sermon this morciag had a special interest for them. At this time wbea so many are giving up the Bible, or holding the truth less firmly than before, the eloquent preacher put him self on record bo clearly and forcibly that no one who beard him could hare any doubt ae to his attitude. Hie text was II Sainoel xxltl, 10. "And his hand clave nnto the .word." A great general of King David Eleazar. the hero of tho text The PliillstJnce opened battle agalnet hliu, and his troops retreated. The cowards fled. Eleasar and three of his com rades went into the battle and swept the field, for four men with God on their side are Btrooffer than a whole battalion with God against them "Fall back!" shonted the commander of the Philistine army. Tho cry ran along the host, "Fall back!" Eleazar having swept the field, throws himself on the ground to rest, but the muscke and sinews of his band had been so kmg bent around the hirt of the sword that the hilt was imbedded In the flesh, and the gold wire of the Idlt had broken through the ekln of the aalm of the hand, aod he oould not drop this sword which be bad so gal lantly wielded. "Hit hand olave unto tho word." That is what I call mag nificent fighting for mo Lord God of Israel, and we want more o it. I pro pose to show you this meaning how Eleacar took hold of the .word and bow thA cvonl took hvfcl OX EleaZAT. I look at l.leoxar'B hand, and I come to the conclusion that be took the sword with a very )ght grip. The cowards who fled had no trouble in dropping their swords. As they fly over the rooks I bear their swords clanging In every direction. It Is easy enough for them to drop their sword i, but Ekex- ars band clave unto the sword. HALF HKASmCD CHRIfplAKS. Oh, my friends, m thU Christian con flict we went a tighter grip of the Gos pel weapons, a tighter grasp of the two edged sword of the truth. It makes me ead to see these Christian people who hold only a part of the truth and 1st the rest of the truth go, so that the Philistines, seeing the loosened grasp, wrench the whole sword away from them. The only safe thing for us to do is to put our thumb on the book of Genesis and sweep oar hand around the book until the New Testament comes into the palm, and keep on sweeping oor band around the book until the tips of the Angers clutch at the words, "In the beginning God cre ated the heavens and the earth." I like an Infidel a great deal better than I do one of those nambyparaby Chris tians who hold a part of thS truth and let the rest go. By miracle God pre served this Bible just as It is, and H b a Damascus blade. The severest test to which a sword can be put in a sword factory is to wind the blade around a gun barrel like a ribbon, and then when tho sword b let loJe wrong, ana k mum tnwa i aa that b good.

We see bow men foegwt themselves In worldly achieveirwnt We hart often eeen men wbo In order to achieve worldly success will forget all physical fatigue and all aruoyaaoe and all ob stacle. Just after the battle of York town, In the American Involution, a musician, wounded, wm told he murt have - hie limbs amputated, ana they were about to fasten him to the sur geon's table for It was long before the merciful discovery of anavtbetloa. tU said, "No, dont fasten me to tbat ta ble; get me a violin." A violin wai brought to him and be said, "Now go to work as I begin to play," and for forty minutes during the awful pangs of amputation he moved not a muscle nor dropped a note, while he played some sweet tune. Oh, ie it not strange that with the musts of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and with this grand march of the church militant on the way to become the church triumphant, we cannot forget ourselves and forget all pang, and all sorrow and all persecu tion and all perturbation f We know what men aocompllah un W worldly oortosition.
