SI 1 TELL you, Caleb, that it is 1 a pitiful letter after you HCris read it two or three times it gets a sad little sound about it, that it don't have jost at first. Kathie is my own first cons io's little girl, and I remember tbat pitiful little pucker her red lips used to get If she was grieved. She is grown now, and I've not seeD her for years, but, Caleb, I see that pucker in her letter." Aunt Dolly brushed the tears from her eyes, and her husband b!ew his nose furiously. 'It's my belief sbe is just dying starving, Caleb, in that hot, burning city, and here is a world full of all she need," went on Aunt Dolly carefully examining a handfull of big ripe strawberries. "I want her here right off. She thinks she will come in a month or two when she bas paid the doctor's bill. Think of it, Caleb, a .young strip of girl pay ing a doctor s bill? Who knows how sick she was, or what she need ed, and her mother dead." Here Aunt Dolly sobbed out-right, and Uncle Caleb, almost ready to join her, said: 'Why couldu't I go after the child what is the use of her wait ing! 1 reckon I ve a dollar or two to help the Lord take care of the fatherless with. Just get a few things for me, Dolly, and I can go tonight." He wasn't a handsome man, bnt Aunt Dolly thought so, and he was very beautiful to her when, now and then, she caught a glimpse of the kind, tender heart tbat beat beneath his rough exterior, uYoa are a good man, Caleb You'll not be sorry for this." There was quite a stir and bustle in the old farm house that afternoon, for a journey from it was an almost unheard of event. After a while, 'all shaven and shorn." and shin- ingly clean, Uncle Caleb set out for the station. "I'm sorry the doctor isn't here. Dolly, I'd feel sarer about you, and I venture he'd be able to help that poor child when I get her here. I see uo use in prancin' off to Europe, myself. Make Lige feed the colts and 'tend to that lame calf Good by, Dolly.'' Aunt Dolly watched him down the road, aud listened, while she fed the chickens, for the car whistle. When it sounded, her heart was peifectly fresh and sweet, for it was a new heart a heart that never grows old. While she was feediug the chick eas and doing "the night work," and Uncle Oaleb was journeying on iu most uncomfortable fahtou, a little lady,was seated in front of a narrow window in a cheau citv boarding honse, looking out but seeing, instead ot the dirty street, or opposite walls, pictures of the past. Her face was pale and her pretty eyes full of tears. "Why am I so foolish," she said, half smiliug. "Other women forget half a dozi?u lovers, and I can't for get this one who was not a real Jover at all, only, I wish I knew if he ever did care for me, to be sure be never told me so not once, but I am so silly, it is only when I am weak that I feel this way though. I shall get over it atter a while." She closed her tired eyes, and fell asleep It was so easy to lose her poor weak little self that way. The supper bell rang, but she did not hear it, and uo one came to call her. The uioon came up and its cold, calm light tell upon her. Sortie times her Hps smiled softly and thea tears crept down her pale cheeks, but she slept on. Uncle Caleb reached the city, and, aften many troubles and difficulties, succeeded in fiuding the address on Kathie's letter. The pert servant giil eyed him curiously when he atked tor Miss Bently, but even sbe could see the gentleman beneath ihe rough, embarrassed farmer, and invited him to wait until the lady came. "A gentleman to see me!'' Kathie rubbed her eyes open. 'It must be late, Nannie. I have been asleep. Who is it!" "He didn't seem to know what to do, I don't kuow who he is," the girl answered. But Kathie was not long finding out; "Iou remember Uncle Caleb! Why bless your little heart, how proud Dolly will be that you hain't forgot me. She sent me for you Dolly did. We can go early in the morning if yon can get ready in time. Just never mind tbat doctor, I venture he's no good. I'll speak to him before we start why Kath ie!" For she had put her arms around his neck and was crying like a little child. "I am so glad that some one cares for me, that is all," she sobbed. Lucie Caleb let her cry till sb had finished all her tears, then he gave her Aunt Dolly's messages,au helped to make plans for their go ing home. "How did yon know I was bun gry for the country! It is twelvi years since 1 was there, longer siuce I saw your dear old farm I was a little girl then,with mother." Kath ie was stroking Uncle Caleb's rough hand. "Yes," he said, "I remember it well it was just after your father died. You went to Kosevill from there, and your mother died.'' "Then I came here," said Kathie "I could not be a burden to our friends there. I have worked evei since, and now lam to rest." "I can't see why you didn't go to your Aunt Dolly it muster been pride, Kathie you'd have been mighty welcome.'' Aunt Dolly stood on the long piazza looking down the road. Lige had gone with the buggy, and now she heard the approachiug train Her face was bright and her bands fluttered nervously. Now and then she smootbod her clean white apron, and once or twice she loosened the une,snowy kerchief that was pinned about her throat. "Mandy," she called to the girl who was moving about inside the house, "be sure that every thing is nice. I am real excited; it's not only that the little girl 13 coming, but I feel real set u pabout seeing Caleb, he hasn't been gone from me as long since that Smith trial, three years ago." Mandy laughed softly, but an swered gravely enough, "I will, Miss Dolly." And then the buggy drove up and Aunt Dolly, with one arm around Uncle Caleb, and the other clasping Kathie, cried aud laughed, asjthe manner of women is, till she tired. "Iam so glad to see you, child, and you too Caleb. Come in. Aud you are to rest and get strong. Why, Caleb, I can lift that girl with one arm, and me in my sixtyothird. It won't do; I am sorry the doeter is gone, I kuow he could set you right up. Caleb, you are plum beat out. there sit down and rest." But Uncle Caleb could never rest in Sunday clothes. So the travelers were taken in, and Kathie was sliown the cool, big room that was to be hers. At two of the windows the elm trees pushed in their beau tiful leaves, and on one of the branches, where Kathie could see and touch it, a mocking bird had 'built a nest. Mandy tied back the! curtains and pushed open the bliuds of the third window. "What a lovely vie!'' Kathie exclaimed. "The doctor lives there; it is a splendid place he is mighty rich aud tbey live high, but he is awful kind hearted, they've gone to to I think its to the far Nord, or some where, now, and we misses 'em powerful.' As she finished, Mandy went out, andKathie stood before the opeu window looking out upon the beautiful picture spread before her. "I am sure the people who live there are never tired aud heartsick," sbe said half aloud: "If Aunt Dol ly, aud eveu Mandy, love 'the doc tor' so, what must he be to thoe who live with him to his wife." And then she began to picture the sweet, sheltered life of the woman who has a noble, generous man for a husband. She saw "the doctor," streng, bansome, happy, and hs wite, sweet, womanly, and tenderly cared for. Then the old, oft seen pictures of the past arose before her and she saw a frank boyish face with merry blue eyes, aud laughter loving lips. --I wonder where he is, what he has growu into. Twelve years! Am I never to forget! At twenty-eight am I still unable to forget a childish dream'j Mandy came then, to call her to supper. What a supper it was! "I shall never get done eating, Aunt Dolly. I'm afraid I'll get to be the fat woman in a circus if I am to feed on such dainties. I'd forget- teu what true and true milk is like! ' said Kathie, smiling. "You are a little goose; but the doctor says no one else has such cows as Caleb," said Aunt Dolly, looking across at Uncle Caleb who was enjoying his supper atter his fast in the city. "That ain't what he said, Dolly it was that nobody kept milk like you do," said Uncle Caleb, his eyes twinkling. "Well it was somehow that way, it all amounts to the same thing. Well, let' me 2ive you another glass full of milk, Kathie. We won't dis pute about it." One by one the long golden days went by. One by one the sweet cool nights crept between them. What a rest it all was to Kathie. -Lt uight oho wout to sleep lieten- i ig to wonderful chorus of birds and insects, with the soft breeze stirring the elm leaves in the win- cow, and the sweet smell of the clover and dewy grasses coming up to her. In the morning the cheery country sounds woke hor, and smil ing she listened, just as she had dne when sbe was a little girl, waking from her sleep in the same room, to the roosters crowing "Tur key, where is J-o-e?" and then the answer from some neighboring farm yard, "Gone to Baltim-o-r.e.'' Sucn days as they were to be sure. "I think the child is very happy, but I do wish the doctor was here. I don't like the look of her face when she's quiet," said Uncle CaN eb, as he watched Kathie go down the garden path, where a little gate opened iuto the medow beyond. Aunt'Dolly pat on her glasses and looked too. "That's where she loves to sit, to see the sun go down. I tell you, Caleb, I never like to gee a girl get to watcbing sunsets aud things.' I have my serious doubts as to whether the doctor could help that child," "Well I know he eould cure her if he was here,' persisted Uucle Cal eb. Td risk a good deal on it," Auut Dolly shook her head. "I am a woman' she said "and 1 can see whata man never can." "And what in the land do you set? Beat a woman, if you can, talk intr niioot!" "Y'ou wouldn't know, Caleb, if I told you suppose I'd lost you, m ny way, what sort ot a woman do you think I'd be?" asked Aunt Do!- y, softly. Uucle Caleb's eyes grew tender. It keeps me busy trying to think what sort of a man I'd be. But we idn't lose each other. Dolly. Do you tbmk the child's loat some one!" xjul auui .uony auiu't answer. Her eyes were fixed upon some thing over in the pasture. "Caleb!" she said, "Caleb, who well, the heavens shelter us! Caleb, look!" "I'm a lookin- Dolly well the great spread eagle! It's the doctor, Dolly, the doctor shore's I am a liviu' mau. Tou reckon he's gone crazy!" Aunt Dolly's face was a study. Her earnest eyes were fixed upou the two persons at the IittU gate, "The doctor" holding Kathie in his arms, and she ciying on his breast. As Auut Dolly gazed, "the doctor' lifted K&tbie's face aud kisaed it. Then a light broke over Aunt Dol ly's countenanc-. "Caleb" she said -'what fools we ate. Come in. How would you have liked to have bad some oue watch ing you and me that night at sing ma!'' Uncle Caleb looked reviled. "Is tbat it, Dolly?" he whispered. "It seems mighty sudden, somehow, but times are progressing. I've heard of love at first eight, but I didn't know they begun where fplks used to leave off.' 'What moles even the best o men are," sighed Aunt Dolly. "You can't see that they have met before." Presently the young people came in. The doctor's face was shining aud Kathie was a very April mix- cure of smiles and tears. "Aunt Dolly!' as all she could say at hr$r. Aud then: "This is Charlie. 1 didn't kuow he was anv where till he came up so the gate. And he had lost me just as com pletely, since I was a girl at Kosei ville and now " "Kathie, it is the doctor!" cried Uncle Cateb, "I aways said he oud cure you. Hasn't he done it, Dotty-' And Auut Dotty, almost as happy as Kathie hersef, couM onyjrepeat, over and over, "Wett Caeb, I never did!" And Kathie, in her own loom kneeling before the third window. with the curtaius tied back, aud the blinds pushed open, looked, with nrPPy eyes, across the woods aud fulds where the beautiful home nestled amoug the trees, aud smiled ud recalled her picture of "the loc tor's" wife.

Why Democracy Won. Cor. S. Y. Star. Washington, Nov. 5, The gen eral sentiment among prominent men of both parties here appean to be that the people bavo put their seal of coudem notion on three im portant measures. First, the Force bill. McComaa' defeat in a district which has a large white Republican vote and whicti he carried by nearly 1,500 at the last election, clearly shows tbaU One prominent Republican, who participated iu that election, said to. day that he believed every white Republican of his acquaintance vot ed agains. McComas, aud that some ot Mrs. McComas relatives, who are prominent Democrats, but who have always hitherto worked for him fioru pernoual motive?, this year were active in optosiDg him, all on accouut of the Force bill. Secondly, the McKinley Tariff bill. That n great measure turned the New England States against the Republican party. The Kf pub lican leaders of the two great Com a) it tees ot the House have beeu al most entirely wiped out from Con gressional exiateuee. Major Mci Kinle of Oaio aud Governor Gear of Iowa ot the Ways aud Means j Joe Caunou ot Illinois, McComas ot Maryland, David B. Hendersou of Iowa and Mack S. Brewer of Mich, igan, of the Co mm itr.ee ef Appro priations, have all been retired, as well as Ben Butterworth, who did uot covet a renomiuaUon in a dis trict which looked Democratic. There is nobody left of the Repubt lican majority except Cogswell of Massachusetts, Beldeu of New York and Morrow of California, with u slim possibility tbat Peters of Kan-. sa9 survives. Such is the DeODle'a verdict on the McKinley bill. Thirdly, Bucs Quay and his me)th -da. There is no doubt that Ihe re ult iu Penusylvauia cousigns Sen ator Quay to private life ai the ex piratiou of his present term as Sen ator, aud will cont'd his retirement from the Chairmanship of tha Nat ional Republican Committee before tbe election ot 16i)2. All thoughtful Republican out side of Pennsylvania admit this to be the inevitable loijic ot tbe elect ions. Postmaster genera I Wana maker, on iu duty bound, affects to think otherwise. lie stid to-day: "Tbe result in Pennsylvania is one of those ebullitions which meu like Quay can afford to disregard. It is the climateric of h series of arorns personal attacks upou him, made maiuJy because he w the Chair man ot the Republican National Committee aud was instrumental iu briugiug about the election of i'resideut Harrison;" There in a fourth element which leading Republicans are uuwilliu z to discus-, but which undoubtedly olayciga strong part iu tbe surpris ing results ot the contests aud that is the personal unpopularity ot fhe President with his own party. Sen ator Gorman in a plaearut little chat this morning grouped all tbepe motives together. Ho concurred in thinking tho result a eidict rf dis approval of the Force bill aud tbe McKinley tariff. But he said it was a reaction agaiu.st radicalism. It resembled tbe uprising iu 1874, when a force bill vvab proposed aud when Massachusetts lor the fiit t me iu her history Huee the war weut Democratic. The Democrat then regained control ot the House and retained it until they them selves attempted radical rn;-a sires in the shape of the Morrison and Mills bills. Now they have beeu put back iu possefsiou of the Lower House, and cm retain coutrol for many yens to come it they lemalu conservative, economical and cau tious. Gagley I have just received a check for my joke on Senator Ilm galls. Tagley Say, it hardly looks right foj you, a Republican, to gag a Senator of your own political faith. G.tgley O, that's all right I've just written to Ingalls that I am perfectly willing that he t-hould g:ig me tt bo can aiake any thing by it. Munseys Weekly.
