THE LOST LOVE-LETTER
gow Jessie's Forvetfulnesa Nearly
Wrecked Two Lives.
Taff," "Tag," "Tag," In quick suc
cession from a number of tiny throats,
and s group of children were scampering
ill over tbe garden of a suburban resi
dence of New York.
"Little girl, little girl" said a rolce
from tbe other side of the hedge, "will
toil please do me a favor?"
"Yes, sir," replied the little maid.
"Kow toll me, are you not visiting for
I few weeks at this house?"
"Yes, sir, I am" rather curiously
this time.
'"ihen, of course, you know Miss
Ellsler, tho governess?"
"Oh, yes, sir, she just went into the
louse, Shall I tell her you want her?"
"Oh, no, but would you please give ber
tbii letter?"
"Certainly, sir; I'll take it right In to
her," and she was moving away.
"So, dear, don't do that; wait till she
comes Into the garden she will like it
better," bo added, blushing very red, as
he turned tuv.-ty
Now, little Jessie could not play tag
with a letter in ber band, and as she
could not deliver it at once, began
thinking where she could put it for safe
keeping.
"Oh, there's a place," she thought,
snd without more ado she squeezed it
tinder tbe loosened bark of an old elm
tree which grew close to the house and
returned to her game. Childish sports
have not usually an all-important im
pression on the affairs of their elders,
but that afternoon's game of tag was
fraught with destiny, ohanging the cur
rents of two lives almost to their utter
ruin, for Jessie in the excitement of her
play forpot the letter entirely.
Miss Ellsler, tbe governess, had been
bappy during the early part of the day,
even till late in the afternoon, but as
darkness full and bedtime came a heavi
ness at the heart possessed her and she
was thankful when she found herself
alone in bor room.
"Oh, birdie!" she cried, addressing the
only confidante she had a golden ca
nary, now quietly asleep "he has broken
bis word; be has not come. What shall
I do? Must I live this drudgery all my
Hie, made doubly heavy by bim? Oh,
why did he spoak to me at all? He
knew I was only a governess. Why tell
me of his wealth and ambitions why
draw from me my story of daily humili
ation if he had no comfort to offer?"
And all the while the leaves of an old
dm tree were brushing the mosquito
bars as if to say:
"Come d play with us, we know
something; search our old trunk where
tbe bark is loose and find a reason why."
Let us accept the invitation and just
read the letter:
"Mr Own Darling: May I call you sot I
promised to let you hear from me to-day bow
you could better yourself In the world, and I
tlilnk you must have guessed, dearest, the way
1 should sucgest If your life is half as burden
tome as you aay, I entreat you to give me the
iweetjoyof ministering to your comfort Be
my wife and make me bappy. as I ahall strive
V make you. I hasten this avowal, as I sail for
the South In a week or two, to be away many,
nany years. Your 'No' will be the death of me.
Consider well, but let me hear not later than In
twee days' time of my great good fortune. If
'No,' let your silence tell me; it would pain ma
tan. In deepest lova and anxiety, yours de
votedly Robert Hickmam."
A few days later at breakfast Miss
Ellsler dropped her knife and fork on
ber plate and reeled senseless from ber
chair to the floor when Mr. Maywood
read from the paper that Mr. Robert
Hickman had sailed on the Cambria for
South America, to be absent many
lears.
A doomed ship, battered and swept by
enarmous waves, confusion everywhere,
in men's souls as in the air above them,
curses and prayers, shrieks and cries,
all go to make up the terrible scene
uich is taking place within a few hun
dred yards from the Jersey shore.
"Lower the boats! Lower the boats!
Lively, lads!" shouts the captain. "The
women first!"
Only a gunshot from land, but what
open boat can live in such a sea?
However, the ship has struck on a
feef. and every wave lifts her and
washes her down, ripping the keel and
ides at every stroke.
In all the mad despair and rush for
the boats there stands one man who is
doing an angel's work in preventing ab
solute panlo seizing alL
The captain has noticed his quiet
speech but firm restraint, and can not
kelp remarking:
"You are a cool one; you have done
Jour share; now save yourself."
"No hurry," replies the stoic; "these
people love life I don't I have nothing
left to live for."
Just then a cher goes up and tbe cry
hope is: "The life-boat the life
krot! Hurrah 1"
Two of the ship's boats have made the
hore within a few feet when one fills
with water, half of the occupants getting
shore, the others being lost
The life-boat, loaded full, start for
tts beach, when tbe ship split In two,
lls over and disappears.

his speech which may result from his
weakness, but has led me to think that
bis mind Is a little unhinged," and
with these words of caution the doctor
went his way.
One week from that day dear Mrs.
Ellsler's heart was fluttering wildly in
the expectation of her daughter's
arrival.
She was not disappointed ln this, but
the tears started to her eyes when she
beheld the pale face and wasted form of
Martha, who really needed assistance to
alight from the buggy she who had
often prided herself upon her dexterity
in jumping over the wheels and all to
the ground.
"Oh, mother, mother," sobbed the
poor wanderer, "there's no plane like
nome. ouidl might never have to
leave this haven of peace and rest I
could lie down and die hero, mother,
without a pang."
"My deario. don't talk of dying; you
are lib child, come in. No, let us take
the back door, my patient Is in that
room, and you had better not disturb
him. He is stronger than he was, but
the shock of the shipwreck has left him
cloudy In (lie brain."
That evening Martha Ellsler stole
quiotly to the little, upright piano and
ran her nimble fingers over tbe keys.
Her thoughts were still of Robert
Hickman and his desertion of her, and
in spito of the certain evidonce she had
that he had cared but little for ber, she
found comfort in the melody as ln the
words of "Some Day."
She was singing the second verse when
the door of the pationt's room opened
gently, and a figuro, all expressive of
venoration and wonder, watched and
listened.
The last strain was floating in the air,
the last words: "I love you now," when
Martha's heart filled too full, and ber
face fell forward buried in her handker
chief, as sho cried:
"Oh, Robert Robert my darling, how
could you leavo me without a word?"
"You did not want me. I had to go!"
It was a hoarse whisper the words
were uttered in, and Martha rose as she
turaod, but stood dumfounded as she
recognized in her mother's patient the
man sho loved. '
"Martha, why did you not answer my
lotter If you loved me?"
"What letter? I know of none."
"Did not Jessie deliver my note the
day after our last chat at the gate?"
She had not as the reader knows, and
on learning this he was not slow to re
peat Its contents, and beg hor to be bis
wife.
When Mrs. Ellsler came to bring ber
daughter to supper she found she bad
company, and scarcely recognized her
late patient whose dull, meaningless
expression had given place to one of
bright intelligence and radiant hope,
"Mothor, darling, this is Mr. Robert
Hickman, my future bnsband."
It was not until many happy months
bad passed over their heads that they
had an opportunity of questioning Jes
sie, when, with a sudden flash of recol
lection, she confessed her negligence,
and led them to tho old elm tree, where,
safe in its nook, they found the lost
love-letter. Family Story Paper.
PUTTING BABY TO SLEEP.
Having Ills Stomach Well Filled Is Mora
Than Half the list tie.
A writer in tho Ladies' Home Maga
zine has this to say about getting baby
to sleep: Let me tell you first of all to
see that he is well fed; a half satisfied
stomach is a sure enemy to repose.
Have him warmly wrapped up, and be
sure the feet are warm, not hot or per
spiring, while the room should be rather
cool and darkened. Their brains and
eyes need darkness just as ours do, and
what refreshment do we get from sleep
with sunshine or lamplight shining into
our faces? Should you use your bed
room for your sitting and sewing-room,
be sure that the room is properly aired
before baby is put to bed for the night
You can take him into another room,
close the register and open tbe windows
and doors for ten minutes or so. The
air will be thoroughly changed by that
time. You can then close the windows
ind open the reeister, and in a short
time you can bring the little fellow
back into a fresh yet warm room. If
this simple rule were oftener observed
It would save many a restless night
Having done this the matter is com
paratively easy. If you nurse your baby
he will probably fall asleep in your
arms- if you feed bim then lay him
irentl'y down in his crib. During the
winter months have the pillow warmed
just enough to take off that unpleasant
-hill of cold cotton. The chances are he
will nestle bis little check in it and go
right to sleep.

ERICSSON'S PURPOSE.
Be Had Three Alms Which Governed
All Ills Invention.
Setting aside minor Inventions, three
distinct purposes are apparont in Erics
son's labors, first to improve the steam
engine and extend the scope of Its ap
plication; next to discover some
more economical and efficient method
for changing the mode of motion
we call heat into the mode of mo
tion we call power; third, to force
the great maritime nations into declar
ing the ocean neutral ground, by mak
ing naval warfare too destructive a pas
time to be indulged in, and equalizing
the conditions of the struggle between
the greater and the lessor states. On
the accomplishment of this last purpose
depended, in Ericsson's judgment tho
future of his native Sweden. Too weak
to hold her own in a contest with any
great power, under existing conditions,
her only sure hope of defense is in neu
tralizing the dominating factors of num
bers and wealth by tbe efforts of genius
stimulated by patriotism. Love of
country was with Ericsson a supreme
passion. In this controling sentiment
in the traits of character derived from
his sturdy Norse ancestry, and in the
training and experience acquired during
the twenty-three years spent in his
Scandinavian home, we find the secret
of that exceptional development of spe
cialized faculties which has placed him
in tho very front rank of constructive

The most skeptical should be convinced
by the following brief extracts from letters
recently received by ua, that Paine'sCelery
Compound is an unfailing means of cure in
all disease which are caused by weakened
nerve.
"For some months before using Taine'i
Celery Compound, I waa afllicted with in
(omnia and more or loss vertigo all
brought on by overwork and protracted
anxiety.
"Since using the Compound I feel much
better, aleep soundly, and my head trouble
me less. I have not, meanwhile, intermitted
or materially slackened niy work.
"For th benefit I have gained from your
preparation I an grateful to God and
thankful to you." L. R W. Piirtock,
Pastor of Presbyterian Church, Reynolds
ville, Pa.
Three montha after writing the above
Rev. Mr. Khryock laid: "The symptoms
for which I uaed Paine'i Celery Compound
have not returned, although I have had no
leiaur or vacation from work."
"For s long time I was ao nervous and
worn out that I could not work. I tried
many medicines, but non gar me relief
until I used Paine's Celery Compound,
which at once strengthened and invigorated
my nerves. Many of my friends have used
it st my recommendation, snd they sll
agree with me in pronouncing it the beat
nerve tonic ever discovered,"
IIarlet Sherman, Burlington, Vt
Facts lilt thee art th beat reason why
you ahould not despair of a cure. Whnt
the Compound baa don for others it will
do for you.
