YOUTH AND LOVE.
f outk and Lore fell out on day.
Bald Youth to Lore: "I'll go my way
Aud leave yon broken-hearted.
I'll a thrmiph life Without ymir aldj
I'll ueitber Rare on man or maid '"
And foolishly they parted. ,
Off went haughty Touth alonet
lie hummed a tune In merry tone
And never looked behind hlui;
While Love, at home, was aad and sore.
And longed for merry Youth once more
Alas! abe could not Cud hliul
But Youth had not been walking long
Before he hushed his merry sons-
His heart was full of sorrow.'
He found It hard to stay away
From Love, if only for a day
He came bak on the morrow. ?
For Tove and Youth apart would dla
Like flowers without dew or sky
They'd fade if they would sever!
Aa long as there is tide and time
In every land, in every elime.
Youth and Low will be together, ,v

.Kow, Harry Watson was so fortnnate
as to have a charming widow as bis
coDfjtlant'and friend. She was several
years bis senior, and be was once much
In love with ber or thought be was.
She had poobpoohed bis proposal and
ftold hi in that, although she. thought
him a fine, clever young fellow, she bad
no desire to take a boy to raise, and tbat
e mustn't talk nonsense. Of course he
was tragic and went out West to bunt
for grizzlies, hoping to be masticated by
one, but he presently came to his senses
and returned to the city. --He-was nat
urally rather shame-faced when be met
the widow, but she was so jolly that he
soon forgot his previous absurdity, and
they became fast friends. - " ' '
I "You poor boy!" said the widow In
humorous sympathy.- "What would be
come of you If It were not for me? But
if you obey my orders 4 will guarantee
tbat you will win her."
After thinking the whole matter over
Harry felt comforted, and he felt sure
that the clever widow was going to do
all In ber power to help him. But he
did not Imagine tbat while they were
discussing the subject the . peerless,
self-sacrificing Esther was weeping bit
terly and almost rebelling against ber
fate. It was only by magnifying her
duty to an appalling grimness that she
finally recovered ber composure and
soothed the pain at her heart to an ach
ing numbness.
As soon as the widow felt that Harry
Jiad recovered from the first bitterness
of bis disappointment, she ordered him
to go and call on Esther. He obeyed,
aud a few such calls restored to some
extent their old relationship, and they
could talk more like brother and sister.
And one evening she talked to him In a
most sisterly fashion, warning him
wistfully to beware of the wiles of the
widow.
. "Yon know I look on you as a brother,
and should not like to see one of my
brothers as much In her company as
yoo are. Of course she Is nice, but
people say she Is so designing."
"The little minx," said the widow
when she heard of It "I know I am de
signing, but she will find thnt It Is for
ber happiness I am doing It now and
Incidentally for my own or Just the re
verse." ''" ' ' .
She of course diagnosed the case as
one of Jealousy, and was pleased. Har
ry didn't understand the last part of
bet remark, but he did not question.
, "Are you going to the Madison musl
caleT" the widow asked. - .
"Yes. Esther and her father will be
there," Harry replied.
... "Well. I shall be there, too, and I may
want you to do me a favor. ; Will you
do itr
"Certainly." . ,-. , '" ..
; On the nlgbt of the muslcale the
widow was triumphantly beautiful.
There was the light of battle In her
eyes, and that with good reason, for she
bad brought her own affairs and those
of several other people to a crisis. But
no one could look at her perfect figure
and animated face without feeling that
sbe could conquer the most obdurate
ly her charms and have her will. 1 Har
ry had never seen her looking so be
witching, for he had never seen her so
thoroughly alert and aroused. Had Es
rther not been present to allure and yet
repel him with her Illyllke sweetness
and nobility of soul It Is possible that
old thoughts might have been aroused.
But his eyes were dwelling constantly
on her pure, calm face, and she seemed
(to blm more than ever unattainable.
,Wben the evening was well advanced,
the widow tapped blm on the shoulder
rwlth her fan. -
'"I have come to ask yon for that fa
.yor," she said.
"I am ready to do your bidding."
"Take Esther Into the conservatory
and propose to her.", ...... . .
"I can't." ' -
"You must If you do, I think I can
promise you that yon will win her if
not to-night soon afterward. But you
must propose to-night."
- Hope made him courageous, and be
did as be was directed. .
When he had found a sufficiently re
tired alcove In the conservatory, he re
newed bis proposal with the stately
. beauty. But it was In vain. ,
"It cannot be," she answered. "My
duty Is quite clear to me, and I must
sacrifice my own feelings to It I feel
Unit ta tnbe puro nf mv fnthor In him
declining years Is a trust Imposed on
me by my dead mother." -
"Thou you are not Indifferent to meT"
She was too honest to deny her love.
She bowed ber bead In assent, and tbe
tears welled in ber eyes.
"I must get papa to take me home.
She turned and walked away from
htm quk-kly. Before she bad gone a
dosen paces she stopped as If trans
fixed aud looked with dilated eyes Into
an nlcov she was passing.
Then she ran back to Harry, and a
most fainting, caught Ida arm. .
"Take me bouiel Take me way
from here!" ;
He hastened to call a earn age. When
they bad entered it Esther began to
cry, and he tried to console her. In
stinctively he put his arm stout ber,
and sbe did not resist. A moment af
terIt was the natural thing to do he
kissed her, and, leaning her bead on his
shoulder, she wept until her sorrow had
abated. He could not Imagine what
was the matter, but when they arrived
at ber home she enlightened him. As
she -was leaving blm In the conserva-l
tory she had seen her father kneeling
before' the widow, proposing to her, and
had seen her grant blm a kiss of accept

Harry.' . :- ;;.-' ? ;.Jl
,. It never occurred to Harry that the
widow had ordered him to propose to
Esther so that she could bring her fath
er, aa if by accident to see the little
scene. She had watched bis move
ments, and. Judging the correct moment
to a nicety, bad brought Mr. Townsend
to that part of the conservatory. He
liked Harry too. much to interrupt.
which. Jhe .widow bad taken care to
learn before she took the step, but he
was naturally surprised. Of course she
promptly sympathized with blm on los
ing bis housekeeper, and so wrested
from blm the proposal which she bad
long ago planned. She bad not counted
on Esther overlooking her part of tha
drama, but that only hastened the ac
tion of her plot, and she was not sorry
when she beard of It. , .
Harry was naturally profuse la bis
thanks, for his happiness so blinded
him to everything else, In the world that
be thought it was for his sake that It
had all been done. When this dawned
upon the widow, sbe laughed loud and
on, :.
Oh, go away," she laughed, "to your
billing and cooing with Esther! You
are such a pair of fools you should be
bappy together. And she added, some-i
what mischievously: "Yon see, I am, in
a sense, taking a boy to raise, after all.
But you will find me an indulgent moth

In the suburb of Hcavitree, near Ex
eter, a qnarrel recently arose between
two neighbors, women, which before
long came to the knowledge of the peo
ple of the neighborhood. One of the
women uttered this accusation against
the other: - - - -,. -
"Yott wretch, yon always keep a
black pig and a white pig, so that you
can wltcb us!' You ought to be scrag
ged!". ': ".' : ' .. '' .... -
"Scragging" means hanging, and tha
woman who made the accusation wa
evidently convinced that the other had
committed a grave offense.- Inquiry
was made into the ase of the woman
so accused, and it was found that she
bad lived In ber cottage at Heavitree
some twenty years; and throughout
that period, ber neighbors arerred,; she
had always kept two pigs of course
not always . the same pigs one of
which was always white and the other
black. -. . ...
No butcher In the neighborhood will
ever buy her pigs, as. If he were known
to do so, he would certainly lose his
custom. Sbe therefore has to sell them
at a distance. It la assumed that .the
woman herself believes In the notion,
since If sbe did not she would hardly
take the trouble to keep always a white
pig and a black pig.

Such-a-One, asking about him. Mow,
madam, as all ber acquaintances know,

She wrote tjie note, but In it there was
