    WHAT IS WANTED.
Not long prayers, but Anient teal,
Tills is what is wnnted more:
To put the shoulder to thoVhccl,
And bread unto tlio hungry deal
From tho store.
Not high-sounding notes of prai?o
Ringing through tho vnuHod dome,
But that wo tho fallen raise,
Bring tho poor from life's highways
To tho home.
Worship God by doing good;
Help the suffering in their needs.
Ho who loves God ns ho should
Makes his heart's lovo understood
By his deeds.
TEN TEAKS LATER.
"So ho has coinongnin!"
And protty Ncttio Dovcrcaux trcm
bled from hand to foot as slio glanced
at his card.
"Tell him," sho said to tho servant.
"that I will ho down in ton minutes
for," said Nettie to herself, "I cannot
go down like this I must calm myself
down to ordinary coolness."
Woman-like, sho first went to tho
mirror, and, in suite of her agitation
noticed that sho looked unusually well
Then, with her hands clasped tightly
beforo her, paced rapidly up and down
tho room a number ol tunes
JNcttiowas by no means a vain
woman, although sho was a remark
ably pretty one, and tho half-anxious
glance sho had givon her rellection in
tho mirror was rather of inquiry than
vanity.
It was ten years, at least, since sho
had mot tho gentleman now awaiting
ncr below, aim at that timo ho was
her accepted lover; so Nettie, with al
a woman's consciousness that beauty
carries its weight, had iirst of all asked
herself tho very femnnno but natura
question:
"Will ho think mo changed?"
Tho mirror told her, as ho did, ten
minutes later, that sho had not. So
there was but ono thing to bo done,
and that was to still tho tumultuous
beating of her foolish littlo heart, and
go down.
Poor, protty Nottio! Sho loved him
still, although sho had not seen him
mall theso years, and ho, as well as
herself, had married another!
Self-control, over ono of hor charnc
tcristics, soon canio back, and in less
than tho prescribed ton minutes her
fnco was steadily sot into an oxpres
sion of friendship, and sho was do
Bconding tho stairs.
Hut, alas for human efforts and hu
man resolves, they often melt away
boioro other instincts moro deeply hu
manl And tho pleasant greeting rest
ing so firmly on her lips, and tho modi
fied phraso so carefully plannouonhis,
vanished into thin air when they met.
"ixarryi"
"Nottio!"
And tho two, so long parted, gazed
with happy freedom into each other's
eyo.
A hundred questions thoy asked and
answered. Tho dead, tho married and
gono wore all talked over, and old
Bcones and old occurrences recalled.
Then a thought enmo to Nottio, bear
ing with it a sickening dread, a miser
able, crushed feeling nbout hor heart.
I Harry was, after all, not tho Harry
of old, though, heaven help her! sho
loved lii m as tenderly as over.
Tho question on his part "Nottio,
will you now tell mo about yoursoli""
had awakened her from the delicious
flroam. As in tho darting light of a
single flash of lightning lnnumorablo
objectB can bo clearly discerned, so in
that ono painful instant tho hopeless
ness, tho unfathomable dopth, tho very
linfulnoss of his lovo camo beforo hor.
Tho sight of his dear faco had chased
away overyotherfcoling.butsho could,
sho would, crush it now, nov and for
over. Her faco grow a shado palor, and tho
curves of hor delieato mouth grow
ftorn, as she answered tho man who
lad been tho ono lovo of hor life, and
who sho know had seen that sho loved
him still.
"You nsk mo, Harry," said sho, "to
toll you nbout myself. Shall I bogin
ffhoro wo left off ton years ago!"
1 "XI you win," ho answered, in a
troubled voice, avoiding hor oyo.
"I will bo brief, then," nho roplicd,
but a touch of passion trembled on
ho would-bo tones of ice. "You re
member tho night wo parted, ton years
ngo last July yes? Then, of courso,
you romomber tho rest how you sajjl
unkind words to mo and that stung
mo to tho quick. 1 bndo you go, and
lorovor, 1 know not what olso to say,
or how else to punish you. Hut you,
taking mo at my word went, and, oh,
llnrry, never returned! When I said
what I did that night, my hoart was
breaking, and when I saw your mar
riage two months later in tho papers it
laid mo at death's door. For many,
many weoks my life hung on a thread,
find never since havo I for a singlo day
been my old self again.".
"Nottio, Nettie," ho interrupted,
"you know I tried several times to see
you and to explain, but I always miss
ed you."
"Yes; I know, and avoided you. How
could you explain or I listen, and you
married to another woman?"
"But you, too, married, and wcro
happy, were you not?"
"Imarried what elso could I do? I
was unhappy at home you worso
than dead to mo. Hut I was never
Imppy. Arthur Dovereaux loved mo
dearly, but your imago was ovor bo
forome, haunting my thoughts by day
and my dreams by night, Happyl"
bho continued, bitterly, "happy when
I broke my husband s heart!' for,
I talked of you in my sleep, and so ho
got to know my secret, and, as I tell
you, it broke his heart it killed him!"
"I did not know it," sho continued,
"until ho was on his death-bed. Thon
ho told mo how I used to cry in my
sleep mid call him Harry. Ah! 1 would
luivo called him hack to lifo then, and
loved him, too, if it could have been,
but it was too late!"
And the tours chased each other
down her ohcoks as sho spoke.
"Hut," continued sho, "however
much I may havo wronged him by thus
loving you. i havo been moro than
Cinished for the crime. Tho ample
rtune be left me was swept awny,
and I. tho nroud Nettio. am onlv a
governess, glad of tho paltry salary to
maintain his child and mine. And
now you havo all that I can tell you;
except, perhaps, that your coming to
night has made mo moro wrotched than
I havo ever been beforo. Har
ry! Harry! why did you come?"
"Nottio, darling, I havo como to ask
you to forget and forgive."
And Henry Kainscroft held out his
arms.
Indignant and hurt, she turned, with
out a word, to leavo tho room, but,
quickly catching and retaining her
hand, ho murmured sadly:
"Nettie, if you could only know how
I, too, havo suffered how I was
inveigled into that wrotched marriage
you would never turn from mo liko
that."
"I havono doubt youhavosuflered,"
sho returned; and that your married
lifo is an unhappy ono; butsolong as it
exists you must bear it alone; andj
Harry," sho added, wildly, "never-)
nover seek mo ngain."
"Why, do you not know? did yoij
not hear?" and ho looked rather strangj
Jy I
"Hear what, Harry?" a faint dawnj
ing light creeping over her faco.
"That sho. mv wife, died in a mad'
houso moro than a year ago. ',
it was wed ho was near to catch boa

accused of doing, tho consumption ol

tontnto restrict its uso by limitations
on tho salo. In tho casoofennia. how
ever, it has positively forbidden tho
drug, and the salo or purchnso of it is
penal by law. Nor is this distinction
without somo justification. Tho opium
cator is an innocuous and harmless
person. Ho injures no ono but him
self; ho sins, porhaps, by omission, but
not by commission. Tho ganja eater,
on tho other hand, is invariably a law
breaker. Ho becomes at onco a crimi

to havo tho strange power of bringing

At a negro baptizing in an Arkansas
bayou a rather small preacher con-,
ducted a rather largobrother down in
to tho water, but only partly succeeded
in immersing him.
"Look heah," said tho largo broth
er, drawing himself up, is dis all de!

"Ain't dis ornull?" tho preacheij
asked.
"No, it ain't."
"Why so, sali?"
"Coso wid dis littlo do dobil will git

"Dat's all well urnulT, but I'so sortor,

Tho preacher soused him iukIcd
again. Aiising, ho began to shout,
with a loud voice: "0, I'so got do olo

MYSTERIOUS INFLUENCES.
Dreamland Premonitions Which D Not
Comn to Vai Are Forgotten.
"Jjm going to tell you something
that's true," said a Brooklyn man the
other day to a New York Sun repor
tor. "You can believe it or not, but
it's true. I havo h, cousin who went
to Europe for her health last year,
Whilo in Franco she died. Comparing
timo between Franco and America, it
must havo been within an hour of her
death that her mother, who was knit
ting in the sitting-room at homo laid
her knitting-work in her lap and look-
. i 1 1 i r j .i
eu up wicn a sort oi bwiiuiuu oxpres
sion. 'Why! Alico is dead!' sho said
Next day wo got a dispatch by cable
Baying sho was dead."
"Thero was," said another member
of tho party, "a curious illustration of
mmd-reading, or spiritual telegraphy,
or whatover you like to call it, during
tho war. ion remember that thobat
tlo of Gettysburg was settled on tlio
3d of July, thougli Leo lay on his arms
expecting another attack on tho 4 th,
and began his retreat that night. Tho
Burrcndcr of Vicksburg occurred on tho
4th. Gettysburg and Vicksburg aro
800 miles apart, or perhaps more, and
no telegraxih messago had been re
ceived at Gettysburg announcing the
surrender of Vicksburg at least, if
thero had been, it could hardly havo
reached headquarters before sundown
on tho 4th. Tho 12th corps had been
drawn up in lino on tho afternoon of
tho 4th with a view to changing posi
tion, and was standing at 'in place,
rest,' when ono of tho soldiers ex
claimed: 'Vicksburg'stakcn!"ThoIword
passed down tho line, and a cheer broke
from tho troops. That news and tho
certainty that Leo had sustained a
sovero defeat put now lifo into them.
Hut when an attempt was mado to
traco tho news to ollicial sources it
couldn't bo done. That soldier 'felt it
in his bones,' and had spoken right
out. Next dav dispatches arrived that
proved that thosoldiorhad spokontho
truth."
"Yes, those things aro unaccounta
ble," said a third speaker. "Tho in
tuitions, or whatover they are, needn't
bo so very important, either. I ro
mcmbor that my father was sitting in
his library ono afternoon, when ho
took out his watch looked at it, and
Baid: "E will bo hero in ten min
utes. E was his brother-in-law,
who lived in a neighboring town, and
thougli he called frequently ho was not
expected that day. After ho had
spoken, my father seemed rather sur
prised at himself, and laughed n lit
tlo awkwardly. My mother asked
how hoknow tliatE would bo there,
and ho said ho didn't know, ho had
Bpoken on tho impulso of tho moment.
Suro enough, in ten minutes tho bell
rang. E was at tho door. Ho had
only como to dinner, and his visit was
not important; but ho had somehow,
projected his personality ahead of
him."
Said a fourth: "Thero really is such '
a thing as seeing beyond tho limit of
human vision. I'll tell you a littlo
sircumstanco that I can swear to, nnd
then let's talk about something elso.
When I was 10 years old I had no moro
idea of going to London than I had of
going to Nova Zcnihhi. I knew prac
tically nothing about tho city. Ono
night I dreamed that I was thero in a
park facing some public buildings,
and over tho trees nnd roofs at
tho right wcro tho towers of
Westminster abboy and parlia
ment buildings. That night an im
portant letter was on its way sum
moning mo to London. I wont thero,
arriving just as tho man who had writ
ton the lettor was leaving his housofor
a walk. I saw my trunk safely stowed,
and then went along with him. Wo
strolled out to St.James' park to hear
a band play. At ono point in tho park
I looked bohind mo, and thero was tho
nicturo Iliad seen in my dreams trees,
towers, public buildings, and all.
Before I went thero I hadn't tho slight
est idea how tho city was built. For
aught 1 know St. Paul's Wostminstor
abhy, Toniplo Bar, and tho British
musouin stood in a row on ono street.
How did I manage in a dream to sco
those buildings oast of St. Jainos' park
just in tho position and size, shape,
and color that thoy really havo?"
AGOODIIOKSU STORY.
A Story Alout .YrRjlo, tlio T.lvoly 1'ucor,
From tho Spirit of tlio Times.
"Pilgrim," who picks up many
good story in tho courso of his peram
bulations, writes from Chicago."
"Ono morning not long ago I sat on
tho stops of tho club houso and lis
tened to tho entertaining chat of tho
owners and drivers: Part of it I will
tell you. Ono of tho party, who is
usually a very quiet man, edged up to
mo and said:
" 'I'll toll you a goodstory about An
derson and his pacer, Argylo.'
I braced my feet firmly, and with
both ears wide open, lest I should loso
anything, I patiently waited tho com
ing of tho storm.
" 'You must know,' continued the
orator, 'that Argylo had shown somo
protty slick work, and was cousidercjl
by his party as a suro winner.and was
backed right well in tho pools. Tho
big, ungainly Now Hope united him to
tlio mast in an easy shape, though
Argylo was second. Well, when tlio
second placo was put upon the boards,
two days afterward, Argylo was dnnvn.
That was funny to mo, so I just saw
Anderson shout it. It would have kill

said ho, "and I'll toll you. During that

A Tnle of the Sen.
The Ceylon Gazette of tho 13th of
Juno gives tho following narrative of
tho only survivor of tho steamer Speke
Hall, which recentlyfoundered:
, "When I camo to tho surface after
being washed off the bridge, I and
Quartermaster Usher were clinging to
tho samo life-buoy, and I saw the fun
nel of the Speko Hall going under
water. Boats and everything had been
smashed to pieces and washed away;
andj indeed, if the boats had been
available, they could not have lived in
such water. Catching a spar, I aban
doned tho life-buoy to Usher. It was
dark at tho time, and I could not
bco him, and I saw nothing
inoro of him or any ono
else. At daylight I managed to so
curo another spar. I lashed tho two
spars together with my bolt, crosswise,
so that I was able to sit on tho center.
I could not havo held on much longor
to tho singlo spar, because every now
and then the spar would fall abovome
and my head would go under water.
When daylight set in tho sea and tho
wind had gono down, it camo on rain.
I had a sou'-wester on, luckily, and I
held it ux) till I caught about a cupful
of water. I believe that saved my lifo
for I had swallowed a good deal of
salt water, and my mouth was parch
ed. I saw nothing that day except pieces
of wreck floating about. On tho
morning of tho second dav I saw tho
Bmoko of a steamer a long distance
off. Sho passed on without seeing me.
I saw ono or two others during tho
day, but they were still too far off.
About tho middlo of tho second day a
Bhark camo rushing along at great
Bpced. It was not a very largo one
about nine feet long. I was sitting on
tho cross pieco with my feet under
neath. Tho shark rushed over ono
pieco of wood, and I fancy he got tho
other arm of the raft in his teeth, be-
causo ho stopped suddenly. I had a
pieco of stick about three feet long
which I picked up, thinking it
might bo useful for hoisting my cap on
as a signnl. I poked him with this
stick and he cleared off at once and
Ineversawanvthingmoreofhim. That
night a steamer passed quito close to
me. I could seo all her lights, but, tho
night being dark, sho did not observe
mo. I hailed her, but sho was too far
off to hear mo. I dozed ofl onco or
twice, but whenever I dozed I fell into
tho water. I didn't feel much incon
venience from the sun. My hat saved
me. Un tho morning of tlio thud dav
I saw a steamer and a sail. I took my
oat off and hoisted it on the stick,
and tried to attract her attention.
Bho altered her course, and camo
straight toward me, and I fancied sho
md seen mo; but presently she altered
ler courso, and steered awnv from rue.
I had almost given up hope then.
"Later in tho same day another and
much larger shark visited mo, but did
not como within thocirclo of tho raft,
llo was a tremendous fellow, twenty
loot long at least, and Jgaveinysrlf up
as lost when l saw him. JNotiimg
moro occurred until evening. The sun
began to got low, nnd I could not seo
anything nil round tho horizon, nnd I
mndo up my mind for nnother night.
I must havo gono oil into a longer dozo
than usual, for I fell of tho raft on my
face; and when I got up again tho
French steamer Peiho seemed close on
mo, as if it Und sprung out of tho wat
er. I had nothing to signal with but
my hat. I held it up as high as I
sould, and ono of tho soldiers on
board saw mo. A boat was lowered
and an officer nnd four men camo over
to mo, and took mo on board, whero
thoy treated mo very kindly."
Dreams to Order.
Sir William Johnson was a. canny
Scotchman, who served tho English
Government as its agent to tlio Five
Nations of Central and Western New
York at tho timo of tho French and
Indian War. A story of his drenming
goes to show that ho had peculiar
qualifications for tho post hooecupied. 1
It may servo, also, to throw somo light
upon tho occult philosophy of drcama.
Soon after ho was appointed to the
superintendence of Indian affairs, he
wrote to England for soveral suits of
clothes, richly laced. When theso wero
received, a noted chief of tho Mohawk
nation, called Ilendrick, particularly
admired tho suits.
In tho courso of a few days tho chief
calledat tho agency again, and unform
ed Sir William that ho had a singu
lar dream, and in answer to Sir Will
iam's questions, Ilendrick told liim ho
had dreamed that tho agent had giv
en him ono of tlio lino suits recently
received. ' I
Sir William took tho hint, and im
mediately mado tho chief a present of
ono of tho richest suits. Tho Indian
chief wont awny highly pleased with
tho generosity of tho donoi .
Somo timo nfter this, Sir William,
happening to boin company with Ilen
drick, told tho chief that he to had a
dream. Ilendrick wished to know
what tho dream wns, nnd Sir William
said that ho had dreamed that his
very excellent friend, Ilendrick, had
mndo him a present of a particular
tract ol land, tho most valuable on the
Mohawk River, and including about
five thousand acres. Hendrijk was
prompt in presenting the land to tho
agent, but not without makbg this
shrewd remark:
"Now, Sir William, I will nover
dream with you ugain. You dream
too hard for mo." j
