Alaf, for the young- hearts awaklnsr,
To the hppes and the sin and the breaking
Ami the prodigal tears ' -
Of the burdensome years
That plow bright In the future with promise I
Alas, that the dreams which we olicrlsh
III Die Arcs of fruition should perish ;-
That It darkens the sun
, When the real Is won
And we banish the Ideal from us I.
The story Is ever repeated -
Of Youtfi's aspirations defeated.
We battle' and dream-- 'SET "
Of achievement supreme; "' "
But, oh 1 the deceitful to-morrow
Is foreTtr Its promise brfvlhe,' '
And thotcjir-drons forever are drying:
On Ijopo's fallen leaves
v nere numan
Clad about with
v here humanity grieve,
the mantle of sorrow.
Tlic goal where we thought that tho burden
Would fall, and the eovcted guerdon
Of rest would be found,
Is the desolate hound
Where n demon of restless endeavor
Itlscs tip In the boom to taunt us
With tasks that still lure and duunt us,
Till we turn onec again
To tho battle u Ith men
In the glare of the pitiless Never.
Aye; but labor Is manfully human.
Toll, toll Is the test of the true man;
Though success yield him light,
Though he reel In tho light,
Though his pathway be sunless and dreary,
Ptlll he feels for his Imrdcn-hcnt brothers,
And shrinks from the goodness that smothers
The feellmr divine
Of tho heart-throb benign
That would hold up the hands of the weary.

LIFE IN A FIAT.
1IY EMMA A. OrPKK.
Wh6n tho Harrisons decided to move
from their pretty, suburban-looking
eottngo in tho upper part of tho city
into :i Hat downtown, because it wouiil
bo nearer to Mr. Harrison's business,
several reasons wiiy they should not
lmvo decided wero immediately discov
ered. Mrs. Harrison was certain that there
wero no ministers downtown who could
compare with Doctor Barron, and that
she shouldn't enjoy thorn if there were.
Ollie, the elder daughter, was afraid
that Charley Matron, who lived around
the corner, could 110L continue to call
live evenings in a week, as wils his
present habit; and her father was fear
ful that tho rather small parlor of their
new abode would not take the place of
their pleasant little porch for smoking
nnd ruminating on warm spring eve
nings. But Jossio, who was barely out of
school, was eagerly enthusiastio con
cerning tho Hat.'' She was-posit ir that
of all the charming places to live, a Hat
must uq me most ciiartntng; ami sao
could hardly wait to get into one.
Had it not been for Jessio's contagi
ous good spirits, tho Harrisons would
have boon inclined, at tho end of their
lirst week of Hat-life, to move back up
town without further adv.
I They had begun to despair of over
becoming accustomed to a Hut. Mr.
.Harrison, being forgetful, was freshly
startled every evening when thu door
opened by apparent inagio in responso
to his ring. Hut Jessie, by repeated
explanations, convinced hint that, so
far from being a spiritual manifestation,
it was the direct result of a small brass
handle attached to the kitchen wall.
Ollie, whoso hour of rising was not
of the .earliest, was disturbed every
morning by tho whist lu of tho janitor
up tho dumb waiter shaft, and the con
sequent sending down of ashes on tho
pari of tho girl. Hut Jessie grow elo
quent over tho extreme desirability of
tliis arrangement.
Mrs. Harrison, whose taster, were
quiet, was annoyed at meeting pooplo
in (lie hall, and hearing them on tho
stairs. Hut Jessie defended these sights
and sounds as being remarkably phies
unt and sociable.
Sho herself.however, hud one cause of
disturbances Sho drew Ollie close to
tho hall door, ono morning, with her
linger raised.
Tlioro listen!" she whispered. "It's
tho gentleman on the Hoor above, it's
just the same every morning."
A quick step was coming down sUdrs.
At their foot it paused, wliile a feminine
voico called down sweetly:
"Good-by, Willy. Ho'hoino early bo
sure."
And a manly voico responded cheer
fully: "I'll be on hand. flood-by!" and the
ball door closed upon tho speaker.
"They go through with all that everv
day," said Jessio disgustedly. "Anil
once or twice l'vo heard him call her
dear' yo actually! If there's any
thing 1 abhor, It's the public demonstra
tion" of young married couplus!"sho con
cluded with a shudder.
She stepped to the window hastily,
closed tho bliuds, and peeped through
tho shutters.
Yes, ho doesn't look moro titan
twentv-four," sho announced. "Thov
probably haven't been married long.
Hut that's no excuse not tho slighest.
'Willy' for that munensu thingP' she
added, scornfully, us she watched tho
tall iiguro to tho corner.
That afternoon Jessio went up town
to call on several of "the girls," and re
turned at 4, having hnd tho best kind of
time.
Sho had gouo first to Mamie Duke's,
nnd Minnie had gone over to Cora
Bradley's with her, and they had all
gone on to MyraSellwln's, where Jos-
nio had cntcit&iucd them with a vivid
description of tho Hat, and amused them
wlth'ii slightly exaggerated account of
tho doingH of thu amorous couplo ou tho
second lloor,
Shu had in fact represented Mr, San
dersonSanderson was tho nanio in the
ulit over tho letter box -as being in thu
habit of shouting "Hy-by, Tootsey,

and receiving the my a tie rospou.su of
"Nlcoy plcey oozy boozy goozy.
Hut thu statement had not been fully
eredltod.
Sho was smiling over tho recollection
of her afternoon's jollity as site stood In
thd vestibulo- waiting the ruspomo to
Jior ring.
Whether tho gentleman ou tho sec
ond floor, who ascended tho steps at tho
moment, regarded her musing half
smile ttti intended in soiuo degree for
himself, or whether ho was charmed out
of all self-restraint by JessluN fresh,
young faco and her pretty, fall costume,
'was not dear; but he lifted his hut
hesitatingly,
The motion wm very Might and niot
twpeotful, but Jewle rained her chin
and regarded, the young man with chill
ing haughtiness.
What business had he to low to her?
He wps extremely presumptuous; ho
was impertinent. If that was the habit
'of people in Hats nothing could be hor
rider. Had she not boon determinedly re
garding ono tan-colored kid hand, where
It rcsteil on tho door knob, she would
have seen that Mr. Sanderson's frank
face' hnd shown n quick distress and
confusion, as lie noted tho effect of Ids
impulsive act; but she did not look up.
Some three minutes had passed by
this time since sho had pulled the bell
and. sho jerked it again, impatiently.
A silence of three minutes more, dur
ing which Jessie') frown deepened,
i Then Mr. Sanderson, with rather a
timid' "I beg your pardon!" roached
across her to his own boll and pulled it.
Another pause.
Tho door did not open; there was not
even a demand through the ppcaking
tube of "Who is it?" There was pro
found silence.
The situation was somewhat cm
barassing. Jessie bit her lip, and look
ed down at the tip of her shoo.
Then sho raided her oys to Hnd Mr.
Sanderson's lixed upo:i her. There
was no helii for it; they smiled, and
rather broadly.
"I have not my latch-key with me,"
said Mr. Sanderson, apologetically.
"It is most unfortunate. 1 usually car
ry It."
"I can't imagine what is tho matter
with Nora!" said Jessie, indignantly.
"She must have heard tho bellP'
She gave a third emphatic jerk to the
handle.
"If I could attract my sister's atten
tion," said the young "man, stepping
out and looking up at the second-story
window.
His sister! Jessie's eyes opened
wide. Tho idea gave a new and not
unpleasant aspect to tho case.
Perhaps though, his sister was liv
ing with them. Hut, no; in that case,
would ho not have wished to attract
his wife's attention rather than his
sister's?"
Two pennies and a leail pencil
thrown against thu window brought
no response, however.
Mr. Sanderson came back into thu
vestibule, hopelessly.
"It's rather a peculiar situation." ho
said. "We're aliens' and outcasts at
our own door."
Jessie laughed.
"I suppose wo shall havo to wait
till somebody conies in with

a key,'
She went out to the top step, and
looked ui) and down thu street anx
iously.
Mr. Sanderson followed hor.
"Oh, we've a last hope!" ho said,
with a sudden inspiration. "Wo can

Ho pulled the janitor's bell vigor
ously.
"What a delightful idea!" cried
Jessie: and Mr. Sanderson looked
fully rewarded.
'1 he janitor was a good fivo minutes
in getting to tho door.
llu grinned slightly as he opened it,
appearing to take in the situation. -
"That Ik'11 wiro's broke," ho ob
served, indicating tho row of handles.
"How long you been ringing at 'em?"
"Oil, not long," said Mr. Sander
son, evasively, and joined in Jessie's
laugh.
He raised his lint again as he left,
her at the door, and ran on upstairs;
but she did not. appear to resent it
she even smiled in return.
. "He is not married, after all," she
saiil to her sister, as sho took oil' her
"things" in the room.
"Who?" said Ollie.
"Mr. Sanderson - the gentloin.in on
tho second lloor," said Jessie, emphat
ically. "It is his sister who live
wit li him; and he is quite pleasant."
"Jessie Harrison," said her sister,
stonily, "what have you been doing?"
Shu was not. entirely satisfied when
Jessie had explained.
"Did you ask him to call?" she naid,
suspiciously. "Yes, 1 see it in your
eye you did. you dreadful girl!"
"I 'didn't," said Jessie, laughing:
"but it's quite probablo that 1 shi.ll
yet!"
Tho Harrisons- grew reconciled to
their Hat as time went on.
Mr. Harrison grew accustomed to the
door, and Mrs. Harrison was no longer
disturbed by her occasional encounters
with the t'amilies upstairs, and OUiu
was speedily reassured as to Charley
Matson by that young gentleman's
faithful appearance livo times a week,
via the hor.-o ears.
It was some three weeks after this
removal that Mr". Harrison's cook, fol
lowing a faithful custom of cooks, sud
denly deserted her.
Oilio was, on a two days's visit to
friends just out of town. Mrs. Harri
son wak" not as well as u.stial, and tho
household burden fell on Jessie.
That young lady was capable of car
rying it'.
Shu was rather pleased with the nov
elty of having everything in her own
hands, for she would not allow her
mother to assist her in tho remotest de
gree. She madeoiit a bill of faro for thu
day, ami her mother having smilingly
approved it, started out to market im
mediately. On her return, she put on her oldest
dress and took down the cookbook.
Lobster salad was tho programme for
lunch, and a lobster salad ot exception
al merits was presently produced.
It was rather annoying, to be sure,
stopping every two or three- minutes to
answer thu dumb-water bell and call
"All right!" down to grocery, meat
market, lisli store and bakery buys, but
that was a necessary result of her rather
extensive marketing.

Shu was looking over the plcnlliul
lennsr whether to have peaches for

or grapes ami pears for lunch ami
peaches for dinner, when thu duAih
waiter bell jingled again. She opened
thu door impatiently and looked down,
A red faced man stood below, staring
up with some aggressiveness.
"J n row tiowu me Key oi your collar,
and I'll put your wood In," he said not
too gently. 1
"Woodr" Jessie repeated with a
frown for his griifthuss. "1 don't want
any wood.''
A'ladj ordered it In the tret jut
now" said the man, raising his voice,
"Ono barrel of kindling wood, for twen
ly live cents, and cheap, too. First Hat,
sho said. Ihrow down vour key
"It couldn't have been the lirst flat,"
said Jessie, nrenarmir to shut the door.
"No lady has ordered wood for tho lirst
Hat."
"I know what I'm talking about,"
the man retorted, loudly. "And T don't
propose to bo cheated out of an order.
ion can throw down that key as soon
as vou've a mind to, and tho mone3
too.'"
Jessie returned his fierce gaze doubt
full- Sho was not frightened, but sho
was somewhat at a loss.. How should
sho get rid of him? Where was tho
janitor?
"I'm awaiting for that koy," said tho
man threateningly.
The door above opened at that mo
ment, and Jessie, looking up, saw two
heads appear in succession a pleasant
Irish face surmounted by a dark cap;
nnd that of the second Hoor gentleman,
n hat and overcoat.
"Is there anything the matter?" said
Mr. SandorsoiMuueting Jessie's upturn
ed gaze, with much concern.
"Oh, dear, yes!" Jessie responded,
with a smile of gratitude. "This man
is behaving very disagreeably. He says
somebody ordered wood for our lloor,
and I am sure nobody did."
"Take vour self oil', then," said the
young man sharply.
"1 ain't going out of this cellar till
I've put in that wood," was the fierce
response.
"I'll settle wiili him," said Mr. San
derson, looking down at Jessio reassur
ingly. Ucforo she had realized his intentions,
she had heard a rapid descent of thu
two flights of stairs, and quick steps in
tho cellar, and saw the man below turn
angrily.
She hurried to the head of the cellar
stairs and listened with startled intent
ness. There was a slight setttllo, and
then a hasty retreat toward tho base
ment door, with an accompaniment, ol
sullen muttering..
Jessie ran downstairs. Mr. Sander
son was standing near the dumb waiter.
His hat was lying on the ground and hu
was holding one hand to his face.
"He has hurt you!" cried Jessio, dis
tressedly. "Untried to,'-' said tho young man,
picking up his hat hastily. "It's noth
ing." "I am so sorry!" said Jessie, earn
estly. "It was all on my account."
"There couldn't liave been a better
incentive." said Mr. Sanderson, gal
lantly
"It was so kind in you!" murmured
Jessie.
"1 was only too glad to bo of service
to you," Mr. Sanderson insisted.
They had reached tho top of the stairs.
A pretty young lady in hat and jacket
stood tli ere.
"Dear me, Willy!" she cried; "you
aren't hurt 1' I just came in, and Maggy
lias been telling me about it. 1 ordered
wood of that horrid man, and I said the
second Hal as plain as anything. You
are hurt. Coinu right upstairs and get
some arnica."
Ami, with a friendly nod and a smile
at Jessie, she dragged the second lloor
runt Ionian away.
it was not surprising, alter this oc
currence, that the second Hat should
have called on thu first Hat only two
evenings later, that thu lirst Hat should
havo returned the call, and that the
acquaintance should havo grown into
an intimacy.
The astonishing part was that only
six months later Miss Sanderson ful
filled an engagement of long standing,
and that Jessie, trying her best to seem
matronly, and failing ignoininio;;sly, as
eighteen-year-old brides generally do,
became the mistress of tho second Hat.
Certainly it was most natural that
she should occasionally have thrown
her young husband a kiss from the top
of the stairs as ho took a reluctant de
parture; and certainly it was most
unkind in Ollie, who witnessed tho
harmless act one morning, to observe,
audibly:
"If 'there's anything I hate it's tho
public demonstrations of young married
couples!"
A Woman's Charm.
Tako the novel. The interest of the
novel the real story, not tho social sci
ence tract is in love-making. And the
interest in the love-making in tho novel
lies in tho uncertainty and individuality
of tho female mind; that is to say, every
ease is positively a now one. Mot only
is it impossiblu'to lay down a rule of
action for this mind, a rulo evolved
from the study of innumerable cases in
fiction and in real life, but it is next to
impossible to predict what will bo its
action from a study of its own tendency.
Hence thu iiuudtaustililo jnterest'of the
comedy or tragedy, as it may be, and
the infinite resources of the student of
love-making and the adjustment of the
relation cf man to woman, which is the
great business of life. Tho interest in
the novel, if it is a story of love, is in
exhaustible, not only becauso every
woman is different from every other,
but became every real woman has an
infinite variety of impulse and action in
herself. If tho lover in thu novel were
sure to find Ids beloved every day just
the same, tho public would not care to
read about one interview. Fiction
would perish of monotony. If thu fe
malu mind had a law of uniformity, and
the novelist were to discover it, lie
would simply kill tho gooso that lays
the golden eggs of literature. Ho would
dissipate all tho mystery and charm of
Ids art. Hut there' is no danger. Tho
novel in tills is a reflection of real life.
The great interests of thu world lies in
