"Pledge vrith'vvino pledge with wine!" cried the young and thoughtless Harry Wood. "Pledge with wine," ran. through the brilliant crowd. The beautiful bride grew pale the decisive hour had come she pressed her white hands' together , and. the leaves of her bridal wreath- trembled on her pure brow; her breath came quick er, her heart beat wilder From her childhood she had been most solemnly opposed to the use of wines and liquors. "Yes, Marion, lay aside-your scruples for this once," said the judge, in a low tone, going toward his daughter; "the company expect it, do not so seriously infringe upon the rules of etiquette in your own home act as you please; but in mine, for this once please me." Every eye "was turned toward the bridal pair. Marion's principles were well known- Henry had been a con-, vivalist, but of late his friends noticed the change in his manners, the differ ence in his habits and to-night they watched him to see, as they sneeringly said, if he was tied down to a woman's opinion so soon. Pouring a brimming beaker, they held it with, trembling smiles toward Ma rion. She was verjr pale, though more composed, and her hand shook not," as smiling back, she gratefully accepted the crystal tempter and raised it to her lips. But scarcely had she done so. when, every hand was arrested by her piercing exclamation of "Oh, how ter rible!" "What is it?" cried one and all, thronging together, for she had slowly carried the glass at arm's length, and OH! HOW TERRIHtter was fixedly regarding it as though it were ome hideous object. - "Wait,? she answered, while an In-, spired light shone f rom, her dark eyes, 'twait and J, will tU you. ,1 see" she added, slowly pointing one jeweled-finger -at the sparkling ruby liquid, "a sight that beggars all description; and yet, listen; I will paint it for you if I can. It is a lonely spot; tall moun tains, crowned with verdure, rise in awful sublimity around; a river runs through, and bright flowers grow to the water's edge.: There is a thick, warm mist that the'sun seeks vainly to pierce; trees,-lofty and beautiful, wave to the airy motion ofthe birds; but there, a group of Indians gather; .they flit to and fro with something like sorrow upon their dark brows, and in their midst lies a manly form, buthis cheek, how death ly; his ej4 wild with the fitful fire of fever. One "friend stands beside him; I should say kneels, for he is pillowing that poor head upon his. breast. 4?0enius in ruins.- Oh, the high, holy lookingbrow! '"Why should death mark it,' and . he' so young? Look how he throws, the damp curlsf See him clasp his hands! Hear his thrilling shrieks for life! Mark how he clutches at the form of his companion, imploring to be saved! Oh, hear him call piteously his father's name; see him twine his fingers together as he shrieks for his sister1 his only sister the twin of his soul weeping. for him in his distant native land. "See! " she exclaimed, while the bridal party shrank back, the untasted wine trembling in their faltering grasp, and the judge fell, overpowered upon his seat; "see! - his arms are - lifted to Heaven; he prays, how wildly, for mercy! hot fever rushing through his veins. The friend beside him is weep ing, awe-Btricken; the dark men move silently, and leave the living and dying together. . . - There was a hush In that princely par lor, broken only by what seemed a smothered sob from some manly bosom. .4 -clFSW''' The bride stood yet upright, with quiv ering lip and tears stealing to the out ward edge of her lashes. Her beauti ful arm had lost' its tension, and the glass, with its little troubled red waves, came slowly, toward the range of her vision ":. She spoke again t every lip was mute.-Her voice was low, faint-, yet awfully distinct. She still fixed her sor rowful glance upon the wine cup. j . "It is evening now; the great white moon is coming up, and her beams lay gently on his forehead. He moves not; his eyes are set in their sockets; dim are their piercing glances; in vain his friend whispers the name of the father' and sister death is there. Death, and no soft hand," no gentle voice to bless and soothe him- His head sinks backl one conclusive Shudder! He is dead!" " , A groan ran , through the assembly, so vivid was her description, so inspired her manner, that what she described seemed actually to have taken place then and there. They noticed also that the bridegroom hid his face in his hands and was weeping. '--'--. ' "Dead!" she repeated again, her lips quivering faster and her voice more and more broken, "and there they scoop him a grave, and there, without. ' a" shroud they lay him down in the damp, reeking earth. The only son of a proud father, the only idolized brother of a fond sister, v And he sleeps to-day in .that distant country, with no stone to mark the spot. ; There he. lies my fa ther's son my own twin brother, a vic tim to the deadly poison. Father," she exclaimed, turning suddenly, while the tears rained down her beautiful cheeks, "father, shall I drink it now?" The form of the old judge was con vulsed with agony. He raised his head, but in a smothered voice he faltered: "No, no, my child, in God's name no." " She lifted'tbe glittering goblet, and letting it suddenly fall to the floor, it was dashed into a " thousand pieces. Many a tearful eye watched her move ments, and instantaneously every wine glass was transferred ' to the marble table on which it had been prepared. Then, as she looked at the fragments of crystal, she turned to the company, say ing: "Let no friend, hereafter, who loves me, tempt me to peril my soul for wine. Not firmer the everlasting hills than my resolve, God helping me, never to touch or taste that terrible poison. And he to whom I have given my hand, who watched, over my brother's dying form in that last solemn hour, and bur ied the dear wanderer there by the river in that land of gold, will, I trust, sus tain me in that resolve. Will you not, my husband?" His glistening eyes, his sad, sweet smile, was her answer. The judge left the room, and when an hour later he returned, and with a more subdued manner took part in the enter tainment of the bridal guests. ; No one could fail to read that he, too, had de termined to dash the enemy at once and forever from his princely rooms. Those who were present at that wed ding pan never forget the impression so solemnly made. Many from that hour foreswore the social glass. v 4 BITS AND BREVITIES.

Central Christian Advocate. Three Ways to Deal with the Evil. Mr. Charles Eliot Norton, of Harvard, who during the past summer has made some wholesome utrterancesin regard to town and village hoodlumism and re sulting crime, commenting upon the re cent wholesale butchery by rum-crazed ruffians in the town of Gorham, N: H., said: "The conditions that produce such crimes should be met in three ways. . "First, a quickened sense of the re sponsibility of parents for the restraint or control of their children. i "Secondly, a quickened sense of the responsibility on the part of the town officers for the checkingof evils at their very beginning. "Thirdly, a quickened sense of re sponsibility on the part of the law obeying and church-going portion of the population in respect to the condi tions and character of the community to which they belong." " ' Cry Aload. Intemperance threatens our .homes, its labor, our manhood and our souls, and must we not cry aloud for protec tion? Never mind if men call this fanaticism, interference with personal liberty, destroying legitimate business. We are simply exercising the right of self-defense to protect ourselves from the abuses by which evil threatens all we hold dear. Mgr. Conaty. ' . .
