WILLIE lee.
His tuuuo wns Willie i,ee, but no one
thought of culling liliu Willie except liia
sister. Willio was poor and homely.
His hnir as whnt might bo nulled n
fahio white. Iiis oyc werv pale mill with
out xpresMon. ntnl he wns altogether a
verv p'ain person He and his sister
Alary had n little house in tlio outskirts
of the city near tho car bnrns. llisclose
proximity to the burns doubtless was
what led him (n think he would become
a car conductor. At any rate, ho did
become one, and Mary, as she used to
bo weeding in her littlo garden beside
the street, would look up and ecu him
pam and my to herself:
"Now, don't ho just look lino with
those blue clothes and brass buttons?"
His bistrr'h eyes could not see that the
navy blue of tho clothe painfully
brought out the uickly pallor of his face
and made bin sleepy eyes dimmer. To
Jiar he was handsome and the uniform
made him h indsoiner. Mary was partial
to uniforms. Then! was a policeman in
thnt suburb for whom sho had the great
eat regard, and in tho evening when she
would go out to watch for Willie's car
going by on its last trip tho policeman
used to come and hang over tho gate anil
r,ho would toll him what a gopd boy Wil
Jio was.
Tho men at the barns did not know
much about Willio. Ho never met at
thoir gatherings in tho offlco and btables
, and sung and danced and joked as the
others did. Half of them did not know
his name, but tho linio keeper said his
car was always on lime and tho nickels
ho turned over woro always right in
number.
Willie's passengers did not liko him
-either. They njd bo opened and loft
pon tho door in winter and shut it in
ho heat of hiiiniuer. lie made them sit
close on the seats, and gravest offense of
11 ho would make tho mengo insido tho
ar when there was loom instead of
stnndingon the rear plat form in a crowd.
All this served to make him unpopular,
still he never violated a rule of the com
pany, mid tho keenest "spotter" coidd
novor huvo leported him for iiHitiglo mis
demeanor. Willie did not liko girls. Ho used to
nay to Mary, "Girls aro a nuisance. I
wouldn't let ono of them get on my car
if I could help it." There was no uso
ttrying to get up a flirtation with Willie,
'ho was adamant. A neighbor, rosy
chocked llachcl Moore, had loved Willio
ever r.inco they were children and played
In the dust of tho road beforo tho city
"had moved down to them. Willio liked
Rachel, loo, after a fashion, very much
as ho loved Mary, but ho never thought
'of marrying her or any ono else. .Mary
msed to Kiy to him. "Willie, suppose I
should die, what would you do for .
housekeeper?" Mary didn't think 01
dying, she was thinking of tho police
man, and Willie would answer, "Don't
talk about such absurd things. Mary."
That was all tho satisfaction sho over ro
colvod. Vet it was through u girl that Willie's
3ifo was changed. How these women do
change our lives, some in one way and
gome in another! Willio was supersti
tious. Ho said ho was unlucky every
time bu ran on car No. U!l. A man
had shot himself in it once, and another
had fallen oil' tho front platform and bro
ken his leg, and Willio was always hav
ing trouble when he was on it.
One February d.iy ir ll!l started from
tho barn at its usual hour with Willio
Leo tut conductor Everything went on
well all. day and Willie was flattering
himself that ho was going to escape ill
luck for once, but sho lurks around us
when wo aro least conscious of her pres
ence. It was nearly u'rght and a rain wt
in, a rain that froze to everything and
mado the track very slippery. A young
Jady who often went down on Willie's
car asked to ho left olT at tho avenuoand
"Willio rang tho bell.
Sho Mopped otr, but as fato would
Siavo it another car was coining from
tho opposite direction, tho track was
slippery, a now driver was managing
tho brake, and instead of stopping, as is
tho usual etitpietto in such a case, tho
car camo on. Willio standing on the
stop took in the situation at a gkinco,
and though ho was id ways slow he made
this tho exception, Ho jumped from tho
car and almost throw tho girl from the
track just in time to save her, but he
slipped and fell and was ground under
tho horses' feet and tho cruel wheels
Then tho car Mopped and tho p;utcn
,gors crowded out anil around him.
"is ho dead, Ol is ho dead?" cried tho
girl whom he had saved, and sho ki clt
down Ix-sido him, took off his cap aid
brushed tho damp hair back from Lis
iorehead.
"No, ho Is not dead," said a policeman,
Mary's polivenian, who happened for
oucoto be where ho was needed. "Ho
lives just below hero. Wo will carry
him to the house." Thoy picked him up
and carried him gently into tho littlo
cottage. Mary was overcome with
fright and would have fainted had not
"Teddie" been I hero to assure her that
Willio was all right, "only hurt a bit."
Tho next day tho young lady whom
Willio had saved came down in her car
riage to see how ho wns She swept in
through Mary's little Liivluui liko a
queen, and Ituuhul, who wua bitting on
tho step of the backdoor, looked at her
iu amazement, at tin- long sealskin cloak
and the diamonds in her emu "My,
ain't bhe grand'; Mio said to herself. "1
wonder if Willie l.tuw hr before? 1
wonder if he would hae juiiied right
la front of two great lug honed mid a
car if I bad boon in lur pUoo.'" Jealous

Day after duy Helen Carpoutor onmo

eJio called hiui, and when he began to
et bettor bho brought him flowers mid

brought him books, too, and road to iiini
by tho hour stuff that ha did nut Ijunr.
JJo did not caio for booku, but ho liked
lo look at hi t as she sat by his side read
ing lie liked to hear the tone of her
voice and smell tlfe perfume of the vio
lets she always wore, and after a while
her daily visit was what he lived forund
looked forward to When it grew
warmer he began to sit up by the win
dow iu an easy chair she had sent from
her own home, and she would come and
sit on a stool at his feet and talk with
him iilsint lu-rwlf and her daily life until
she made him her abject slave and ho
loved her with a love that only such
people have who have never loved before.
She was the light of his life and he
forgot that ho was poor and homely, a
thing that he had never forgotten before,
that bho was as high abovo him as tho
heavens are abovo the earth. When lie
held her little jeweled hand in his, as
she sometimes allowed him to do, ho
would have been willing to huvo died
for her a thousand times over.
Itachvl was entirely forgotten. She
would come in sometimes to o" him, but
ho would always be bleepy or watching
for Helen and would not talk to her.
One day Mary eaw her eyes filled with
team, and she put her arm around her.
"Don't cry, Undid; ho will seo tho light
by and by." hhe said, and Undid broke
down and sobbed, "I used to think he
cared for me, but he don't now."
Ono day Mary said to him, "Willie, I
don't think you treat llachcl just right,'"
hut he never heard her. Willie was a
long time getting well. Another man
had taken hiscar, but the superintendent
said lie was at liberty to go back any
time when he was able. Tho policeman,
too, was in a hurry for Willio. to get
well. Mary had promised him that tho
friendship begun last year over tho onion
beds should terminate in a happy wed
ding, and he had been scanning intently
"the house hunters' directory for a suit
able place to put his bride just as soon
as she would consent to become his.
Ono day Willie made up his mind to
tell Helen when she came again just
how. much beloved her. and when sho
cai.ic iu and sat'down at Ids feet and
looked at him with her gieat liquid dark
eyes, full of tender solicitude, and asked
him how he was, he took her hand and
attempted to speak, but could not.
"You are weak yet. aren't you, Mr.
I,eo? How angry you ought to bo with
mo for having been the cause of all your
trouble. Hut you'll hurry up and get
well by Kaster, won't you?" And she
childishly laid hor cheek against tho
hand sho held. "Do you know, I am
going to bo married on Master Monday,
and I want you to come to my wedding."
"Oo to her wedding! Go to her wed
ding!" He said it over to himself, then
the room grew dark and everything
seemed' uncertain, and ho fainted.
"It is warm and ho is still so weak,
and 1 suppose 1 talked him to death,"
she said to Mary, who camo in answer
to her alarmed calling.
Mary was quick wilted and sho know
pretty nearly what had happened, and
bho told "Teddie" all about it that even
ing and said sho loved Willie, of course,
but she thought ho had treated liachel
badly, and may bo this would bo a les
son to him.
For several days Willio was too weak
to sit up again in the easy chair. Ho
seemed helpless and unconcerned as to
whether he got well or not. Helen had
not been to seo him since tho night iiu
fainted. She was busy with tier wed
ding preparations and just stopped at
tho galo one day to ask if he was better
and wondered if Mary thought ho could
coino to her wedding
"No, I do not think he can go," Mary
said, and she said it coldly, and Helen
did not come again.
It was the day ..of Helen's wedding.
Willie heard tho carriages roll past on
the pavement and ho turned his face to
tho wall and the tears came intohiseyes,
that had been strangers to tears for
years. llachcl had brought in it. bouquet
of Master flowers and placed them on his
tahlo. There woro violets among them;
everything to remind him of tier. Just
in tho dusk of evening llachcl herself
camo in. She paused a moment at the
door to seo if lie was asleep, and as his
eyes were closed bhe concluded that he
was. She sat down on the low Mool
and ns her face was partially turned
away from him Willio opened his eyoa
anil looked at her slyly.
Ho never thought Uachol pretty be
fore. In tact, ho had i.ever thought
much about her. but now as she sat be
tween hint and tho fading light ho noted
tho roundness of her cheek, her w Into
throat, and the pretty curls of brown
liairaiound her face and neck.
"1 wonder if she would do just as
Helen did had she been in her place," he
said to himself. "Would she have coino
hero and made me love her and then
have cruelly told mo she was going to be
married? Yes, I suppose hln would- wo
men are all alike, coquettes, every ono
of them."
liachel was thinking over her life, and
by some strange, uncxplaiii.ibli' mes
meric sympathy Willies mind went back
over the past too. What a friend slu
had always been to him and Mary, and
how bravely she had li.u.;ht her own
battle of life thus lur. "She is a nobl.
littlo woman." lie said to himself, "and
I wish 1 was worthy of her." Then the
clock struck, and liachel started up. Sho
drew a half si;;hiug breath, paused a
moment, then looped over him and
lightly touched I.h lip with horn. Ho

Accoiding to the scientists, who area
dull sort ol lolk, however, and who love
to hide their ignorance behind long
names of learned nouud, the violet is a
genus of exogenous herbs of the order
Violaco and is a native of the northern
temperate zone I5ut the (siets know a
great deal more than iho scientists, for
they were horn hefoie them and will
survive them and the poets tell us all
about the creation of this fragrant flower.
When Jupilei was lit love with lo ami
changed her into a hoifer, dooming that
common glass and Mowers were no fit
diet lor a sweetheart of the king of gods,
lie created the violet that sho might feed
upon its dainty petals And, it is added,
when lo died violets sprung from her
body Shakespeare alludes to this old
tradition wjien ho says:
lty Iter I" the earth
Ami I lorn litr lalruud unpolluted flesb
May vlok'ls xpriiiK
The ( i reek name for violet was Ion. and
possibly because that suggested Ionia,
whence the Athenians were fabled to
have sprung, the flower was a great fa
vorite with the Athenians, who adopted
it as their badge and loved to weave it
into the chaplets which they woro at
hantpiets, thinking, indeed, that it was a
guardian against drunkenness.
Alcibiades went to Agathos crowned
with ivy and violets. Tho only lines
that have survived from Alciuus' odo to
Sappho begin by addressing hor as
"Violet crowned, pure, sweetly smiling
Sappho." The Athenian orators, when
striving to win tho favor and attention
cf tho people, woro wont to address them
as "Athenians, crowned with violets!"
Among tho Romans also tho violet wns
highly esteemed. Ovid, in speaking of
tho ancient sacrifices and contrasting
their noble simplicity with the garish
display of more degenerate times, says
that "if there was any ono who could
ndtl violets lo the chaplets wrought from
Mowers of tho meadow ho was -a rich
man." And Virgil, to emphasize tho
desolation of nature mourning the death
of Daphnis, speaks of tho violet as re
placed by the thistle.
Till'. VIOI.KT IN THE CAST.
In tho east the violet bad a groat repu
tation among those races whoso religious
wore rather emotional than mystical.
Tho Arabian poets, liko their brother
bards of other climes, bado the wealthy
and haughty learn humility from this
lowly wayside preacher It was a favor
ite Mower with Mohammed, and henco
has acquired a peculiar sanctity in Mos
lem countries. "As my religion isabovo
others," quoth tho prophet, "so is tho ex
cellence of tho odor of violets abovo
other odors. It is as warmth in winter
and coolness in midsummer."
It is likely that it was from sonio long
foreground of popular homage that tho
violet became the badge of tho mediiuval
minstrels, as iu the poetical contests of
Toulouse, where the prize was a golden
violet (.'lenience lsaiire places the vio
let among the flowers with which victors
in the gai science were crowned.
Tho superstition still survives iu widely
scattered countries that to dream of tho
violet is good luck In Hraiidenhurg
and Silesiii it is held a specific against
the agtio In Thuriugia it is a charm
against tho black art lu many parts of
rural (jorinaiiy the custom is still ob
served of decking the bridal bed and tho
cradles of young girls with this Mower,
a custom known to have been in uso
among tho Kelts as well as among tho
Greeks.
No one, indeed, names tho Mower but
to praise it; no one uses it but for 6omo
pretty, useful or octicnl purpose. Its
popularity is liignly creditable to human
nature. Except that in sonio regions of
tho east it has been used to flavor sher
bets, and that in Scotland it has been
mistakenly used as a cosmetic, it has
been universally cherished only for its
modesty and its beauty and its delicate
fragrance,
COnrolt.M. VIOI.KTTR.
In modern France the Mower has been
adopted as the emblem of the Houaparto
family "Corporal la Violette" or "Papa,
la Violette" was the title bestowed by his
partisans upon the first Napoleon after
ins banishment to Elba significative of
their ixMilidcncc that ho would ' return
again in the spring
Kaily in January, 181a., a number of
coloicd engravings made their appear
ance in Paris representing a violet in
full bloom, with the leaves mi arranged
ns to form the protile of NajKileon. Un
derneath was this significant motto, "II
roviendra uvea lo printeinps." The phraso
became an imperial toast, and tho Mower
and color were worn as a party distinc
tion And, in fact, the sentiment was
realized. When March 20. 1815, saw Na-1
poleon enter the Tuilleries, after his escapo '
from lilba, ho found tho grand staircaso
tilled with ladies, who nearly smothered
him with violets.
On tho death of tho king of Homo very
pretty devices in violets were made,
showing on tho edge of the petals pro
Mies of the members of the Houaparto
family, each prolile forming thb outer
dgo of the petal looking at tho Mower
and leaving the face hito.
