MAKINO THE BEST OF IT
There is nothing o cheering

You're sighing anil brooding,
Mj n ighbor, that's certain
Qu ck ! Let in the daylight

Now toss olf the burden
And have a ligh breist of it
But, if you mutt bear it,
Why, then, make the best of it.
At door, or at window,

Enlarge. yiur dominions.
Your neighbors h.tve sonow
ho are not in quest of it,
And many, full many,
Are making the bit of it.
Yr u met t with a friend.
Ho seems giy even jolly;
You know he Ins care.
You art shocked at his folly.
Why, nnn, though he Hufitrs,
He'll not toll his guest of it
He's breasting the billow
He's making the btst of it.
There's nothing that mikcth,
When woo drains his utals,
The fate so transcendant
As patitneo through tnils
It makes the heart better,
And this is a test of it.
That patience brings faith
When wlVc making the best of it.

"And you love m, Jennifer," murmured
he, still kneeling, still not daring to touch her
although she sti oil so close to him that it
seemed almost as if she meant to tempt him
to take those white hands and woo her for

'Toriive'" rcpe ited she, not heeding him.
"Why, there is nothing to forgive. You told

And ho went, llus was Jennifer's tunc of

I wenty years have bioaght changes upon
the room fiom which Jennifer Morland ills
imsul her lovei, havo nu How oil the glow of
dinptrics and nigs, cracked the tono nf the
piano, eivtn to tvtrytlung tho indent able
touch that robs of youth without conferring
any ntvv thartc'tr, but still the room seems
blighter th n of old, for m more than one
plate it is v it iht.il by touches that re leeni its
former charatttr ml maku it more at one
with human in tenet mid taic for human life
A gpiithi Mndonrn hoi ling high the lltbo and
In iking down wit i mild Milan eves smiles
abovo tlm mantel; two work baskets and one
writing elesk make an amicable group by the
window; a llihlo and books of devotion are
piled upon a tab'o standing in a recess; a flute
Iuh upon the piano; a little tahiuet holds
some thoito toys, apparently, r hts of a happy
thililliriod, and tin
ee e hairs drawn together
about a round table on which stands a mi
troscrope with several open boaks stems to
militate joint study. The room is not so
pretty, his less unity of elftct, but it is nioio
beautiful.
i i thought Alexander I'mrhjiias ho loohtd
about it, and Hushed w th humiliation, re
calling Jennifer's words when she sent him
outof it twenty ears bofote.and remembered
the long lov el) eU)saud uvruiiigs tint hu had
spent in it in that far off cuth when he and
Jennifer htd loved. Ho had never expected
to sro h again, and ytt lute had drawn him
hither, and once moio his feet had justed tho
threshold and ho was waiting with sickening
impatience to hear Jennifer's toot on tho stair,
to know from her whether his Christmas gift
was to be happiness or misery. He had vowed
never to look at her face ag tin, and now he
was longing for it with almost tho old tagti
ucss, yet with a far liflerent motive, and
thinking what that motive was, he was stnil.
Mi: at himself when she glided in, unheard, in
spito of his listening, anil seeiug hint, crinl,
before discretion anil prule warned tier, "iou
do w oil to smile, do you not?"
"And why not: asked ho.
"Truly, I do not know," salil she, "unless
it is that I do not remember that y on ofttii
miltd. We have received your note, my
husband and I, aud 1'ray ait."
"it is of no consequence," answered he.
"And you"
"Well, wo. But have jou spoken to
Bortha?'
"Yes."
"And she loves vou'"
"Yes."
"And )ou are sure that this is not a mere
boyish amusement on jour part, a little en
tanglement from which you may escape light
ly ; or a mistake on her part You will not
take an Italian journey next year, or was it to
1'gjpt that you went when you made an error
be fort'"
"M idam!"
"Kxtuse me. A mother takes precautions,
jou know. Well vo refuse."
"You refuse I"
"Yes My husband and I have nothing
gaiuat jour tharactei, Mr, l'eiirhyn; your
wealth is undeniable; your fame makes vou a
desirable husband for our daughter, hut we
have memories "
"You can have none that are not creMittble
to him," aud a third voice, and Bertha
entered, tho veriest unleam that ever glad
elenrd a home, small, slender, swift of move
ment, her mother's opposite in complexion,
and stiHhl beanie her lover "Tell your mem
ones, mamma," said she, "I do not fnar them.
Or, do jou tell me, Alexander."
"Alexander! already I" cried her mother,
"Certainly. You called papa Uicliard. did
you not? We are engaged. This isn't Kng
laml, mamma. What am your memories,
Alexander"
"You must not ask," he answered, and as
he did so he saw lu Jennifer's eje's that he
ha I spoken utmiielj, but he would not take
the word back,
"Then tla you tell me, mamma. Tell the
very worst. You cannot change me. I am
ruck, adamant, diamond, if yon like, sir. Tell
me 1"
"I cannot," answered he.
4 Then I shall marry hint. Papa will not
say no. l'apa will be glad to give me to any
one so learned and wi.eai Mr. l'rnrhju I
am not afraid. I shall bring him here," and in
a moment she had ttraggeet him from a neigh
boring room and confronted him witht.ie
ether two, pouring out her enteatie and her
liroteltltiona of t-otiitanev w ith a nrtttv mir-

ture of fondness and energy, while her mother
and her lnaer looked at him with wonder at
hii calmness. When she had f.ni'heil he
s-nilel slightly and said, "My dear, this was
not necessary. I consent. '
'Hacou forgotten?" asked his wife
"No; I remember. Hut one mistake dies
not vitiate a life. I consent."
"Tell mo a hat he remembered," Ilrtha
raid, giing to her lover ns her father left the
room, taking her mother with him, but he
would not; and the newly betrothed narrow Ij
missed a rjuarrel in what should havo been
their first moments of bliss; and when he had
cone and Jennifer came back she found her
sunbeam transforms 1 into a small thunder
cloud, as it often was on occasion, and she
was besieged weth eager questions not to he
answered, of course, for how could she tell
the girl that Alexander had once been her
lover, or expose the la lit that her husband
had condoned '
"And I thought that I had found peace I"
she moaned m bitterness. "I ha 1 the Iov e of
a husband and a daughter, the joys of intel
lectual companionship, even something that
I called the consolations of religion, and he
comes, an 1 in one moment sw eeps it all aw a) .
Am I his slave still'"
This was Jennifers time ot self revelation.
III.
Still another change has come to the little
sitting-room. Above the mantel hangs a por
trait, of which the calm, rather dull face and
quiet eyes arc those of Jennifer's husband,
me ot the work baskets is gone from the
window and ever thing is set in order, lenm
fer, her goldtn hair still golden, hut with
saddened eves and face from which the pride
has mercifully been taken by life and widow
hood, sits quietly at the piano and softly plays
music strange ti her skilful fingers in the old
days, but now very dear to her, and the
sound of the choral grtets Alexander I'enmyn
oa he enters, and for the fourth time ees her
on Christmas Kve.
There was holly in tho windows and
massed in tho vas-s, and the whole room
breathed of Christina", and Jennifer herelf,
with holly on her breast and in her hair, sue
gested tho festival, but l'tnrhjnsavv nothing
but her face as sho played, until, taking a step
forward, ho ttugnt signt ot a locket winch
huiij at her throat, a Ictket which he remem
bered perftctl) will. He spoke, ami in an
instant, before alio tuined, she hal caught it
from its pi ice, snapping tho thread of
chenille that held it, ami when shs faced him
she was pale and calm-
"I did n t expect you," she said
"Bertha
"1 tome to )ou from Bertha, ' he answered
grav ely.
"Bui news?" she asked, looking at his
grave face
"Yes and no," ho answeied lightly. "Jen
nifer, Bertha Ins jilted me,"
"How daro she," cried Jennifer. "She
o nnot'"
He shook his head.
"D n't believe it, Alexai der. It ctnnot bo
true. It sha'l not be true I Don't lou't
look so palo Yuu shall have Iter I You
shall ! Ah h " and hjstencs seied tier for
tho first and last time in her lite, and her
eager protest was lost in s passion cf tears
and laughter, not quenched by Penrliju's
eager remonstrince and oilers of all manner
of absurdities supposed to be soothing.
' I'm 1.1 ul '" he sai 1 bluntly, as s on at he
dared to say anything, thereby reducing her
to speechlessness
"You seo," Penihyn vvint on, eiKomaged
by her silence, "she has alw.av9, all through
our engagement, been dissatified bocauxo I
would not tell hu why jou opposeel it; since
her father's diath she had insisted on know
ing this secret. I refused to ttll her; w e
quairelled, and last night, while wo were
both Btaying at jour cousin's house for tho
holulavs, she sent me a note to say that in
fact, Jennifer she's married my nephew,
Arthur."
"Oh'" was all that Jennifer could find
breath to el filiate.
"Anil that's all," l'eiirhyn concluded,
rising as if to go.
"U'litio aro they ' ' Jennifer asked.
"Oh, safe) enough; m fact I caught them
Thev ran away hkt two fool", and they nic
housed at l'eiirhyn Place, safo enough, in all
tonstience."
"Anl jou'"
"I'm going hick to jourcousiu's."
"Do you?"
"Not if you don't."
"That sounds like old times, Jennifer.
You did care at first."
' I should not wish my daughter t be
faithless, sir."
"Likome? And come? You vvoultl havo
been aveneed, Jennifer, if I had only 3ared."
She would not look at him, hut he saw her
tingi-rs tighten on the locket which she had
Held m spite of all her hysterics, and, with a
quick movement he caught it from her grtsp,
transforming her in an instant, w hat with her
rosy flush and her animation to her younger
self
"(iivo it to me '" she cried eagerly. "Cow
ardly I Unmanly I How daruyou?
"Because i love you," he said "Step!
Because I have never ecaseel to love you,
although I taught myself to think tint I had
Because, jou know that I love you -aud ami
is thcro another excuse, Jtnuifer? Look
up' Tell mo."
"And because I have always loveel you,"
he said, "in spite of pri le in spite of
another man's love, in spite of my daushter
But truly, I did not know it until I was
alone. iot truly know it until to day, my
first lonely Christmas t-.ve.
"Ami so you put ou the locket," he asked.
They will call us two old fools, she re
plied, irrelovantly,
"Bettsr than that we should call ourselves
so," ho rejoiued "We wire two young fools,
but we aro wise now."
And when Bertha ejaculated, "How every
body will talk, mamma'" Jennifer only
smiled,
This was Jennifer's time of love.

Our Pacific Empire
.Few Americans have any idea of the ca
pacity of this continent to support a dense
population. The tine will come when the
United S atcs and indeed all of North Ameri
ca will be thickly inhabited as the nations of
Europe ertho most pcpulous states of ths
tast. Some idea of the capabilities of our
own section can be had by reading the follow
ing, under head of "Our Pacific Empire"
which we find in the last copy of tho Ameri
can Aijrkulturirt:
Passine over, for tho time being, the States
and Territories oi ioiorauo, ixe .nexicn
Nevada, Aruoua, Wyoming, Utah, and Ida-.
together about as large as the combined --rea
of Germany, France, Great Britain aud-'Pnln
we find on tho Pacific Coast alone, -d a";
forma, Oregon and Washington, a' area of
323,000 square miles, or over f' VCT, cent
larcer than the German Empire or I-ranee,
and fully equaling those cotinfe3 m "J ca

With the entire present i-liibitints of the

room for from lO.OfO.OOO to 15,000,000,
without exceeding thJ population per squire
mile of either Frame or Germany.
Work along tH Oregon and Ctltfornia ex
