ROCKING THE BOYS TO SLEEP.
I rif me down In the twilight cool
Of b busy summer's day.
And close mjr eyes, and lire again
The time so far away.
When Eddie and James and John were
here.
And the tear to tnr cjes will creep.
For I seem to ait In the oW brown chair,
A-rockin' the boys to sleep.
1 bring John back from a home of wealth,
Where fame ami nwr dwell.
And rfntr and rock him to weep once
more,
More bamr than toscne can tell.
I brave the storms on a shorele sea
Where tempest and surges sweep,
"And James is here and I rock again
"My wandcrius boy" to sleep.
I bnlld a stair to the heavens tall,
And reach In its sweet domaiu
For little Eddie and bring him back
To my lonely home again;
My throbbing heart Is heavy now
With a Teaming strong anil deep.
As I smooth the curls of tnr only babe
And rock biui once more to sleep.
They say' the old chair Is useless now,
'Tis creaking, and dull witb age.
And mast be forever put aside,
Like a well learned, worn-oat page.
Bat the old brown chair sings a song to
me,
Aa It whispers of other years.
And it tells of the roughened places
smoothed,
And 'murmurs of childish tears. .
Yes, the old chair tells In an undertone.
In a voice so creaking and old.
Of the comfort it gave through bummer's
heat,
' As well 4s In winter's cold:
How those little dependent lives were
soothed
Through their childish sorrowr deep.
As.it did its host-to ease each paiu.
While rocking the boys to sleep.

ivci i was sitting in a
low chair on the balcony, her
' head leaned back, her eyes
lowered to the face of the young man
who lounged on the steps near her a
handsome young man, the "second
Adonis," the ladles were wont to call
bltn.
"What an awful pity that Tom Itow

selves, with the most pathetic em
puusis. -ins tace anu tils manners

"They like to tllrt with me," be said
with a smile of self-disdain, "but they

were only Idly glancing.

"Let us be practical. What would

"But the reward?" quietly persIs.eJ
the young man.
Myra Kent laughid the sweet, sin

know so well, and which was so differ
ent from that of most girls of fashion.
"There la little I would not give,"
she said, half In earnest. "I believe I
would give my hand, If the man did me
the honor to want it."
Tom Itowen rose to his feet. Though
Ills eyes glowed peculiarly, though his
face was pale, he yet commanded his
voice, so as to say, mocklugly:
"Of course, Miss Kent, you are safe
enough in adding that last clause to
your offer of reward. You know the
bracelet Is gone Irrecoverably. You lost
It on the highway more than a week
ugo; you nave yourself looked over
every foot of the road. Some trump
nas round it; it is probably In some ob
scure pawnbroker's shop by this time."
lie added a few more words on some
other subject, and then he sauntered
slowly nwuy down one of the walks of
the garden aud disappeared among the
trees.
As soon as ho wns out of sight his
whole nppeumuee changed. He looked
alert and alive. He stood still a mo
ment, glauclng about him.
"It Is nil folly, I know, but I am go
ing to try to llnd the bracelet for her.
I should Ike to do tlmt. Of course 1
cannot ask her to be my wife; sho Is
the last person under the suu to be a

disinherit her, and how nm I going to

While ho walked ho wns looking
nmong the dust-covered golden rod and

barks of satisfaction as he went, nud
was constantly turning about to see
that Itowen followed. He went faster
and faster, so that Anally Itowen was
nearly running to keep him In sight.
Suddenly tbe dog leaped and scram
bled down the steep bank of a dry wa
ter course, and when Itowen came to
tbe edge and looked down be uttered
an exclamation of alarm and surprise
and then swung himself down from a
birch tree and fell rather than walked
to a place where lay a figure whose
blue dress and bright scarf were fam
iliar to his eyes.
"Myra!" be cried, as be flung himself
down by her.
All bis love and agony were In that
word. He had feared to llnd her
senseless, dead, but she looked at blm,
and a faint smile came to her white
lips. As she met his eyes, as the tire
In them poured down iiou her, a tinge
of color came Into ber face.
"I think most of my ribs are broken.
and perhaps tbe rest of my bones,"
she said, with an effort at speaking as
lightly as ber. words sounded. "But
I've found my bracelet."
As she spoke the last words her face
turned deathly white, and she sank
still further back in unconsciousness.
A quarter of an hour later, when life
returned to her, she fouud herself sup
ported in Itowen's arms, aud before she
opened ber eyes she felt a pair of trem
bling .Hps pressed passlouatily up.n
her own.
"Forgive me! Forgive me!" murmur
ed Itowen. "I was wild I thought you
dead! May you never suffer as I have."
She tried to withdraw herself, but he
held ber fast; be could not let her go.
There was something In her face that j
emboldened mm, that made bis hopes
rise Intoxlcatlngly.
And now that I am not dead?" she
whispered, at last
"Ah, now now I will never let you
go!" he exclaimed, holding her yet
closer. "Have you ever guessed bow I
love you?"
"Yes I half fancied but " was
the low response.
"But what?"
"I dared not think of It because be
cause I was nrrald I should discover
that I loved you!" was the delicious reply.
A few moments after ho snld:
"I Intended to have fouud that brace

"It's ail tbe same," she said, shyly
smiling, "since I have fouud It."

he Jumped from the wall, and was try
tag painfully to escape the notice of the
bull by crawling Into the shelter of the
little clump of trees In tbe corner of the
cricket ground
Suddenly, the furious beast caught
sight of him. and with a tierce bellow
turned on him. Poor Dan. nearly dead
' with fright and pain. Just managed to
elude the mad rush by the aid of a
friendly tree, but a few minutes of
dodging tired him out, and he screamed
for help, while the men and boys
seemed paralyzed and unable to su
gest any meacK of diverting tho bull's
attention
Then they all held tbelr breath In
fright, as little Dickie, with a shout
burst to tbe front, dribbling before him
a football right up to. the bull.
"Come back, come back!" they cried
you'll be killed!"
But Dicky was no coward now. With
a tlrm kick he sent tbe ball slap In tbe
face of tbe bull as be was on tbe point
of tossing tbe now fagged-out Dun.
Staggered by the sudden sting of the
ball the beast In its blind rage turned
to follow tho football as It rebounded
from Its head, seeing In It a new enemy,
and, butting at It fiercely, was soon at
the other end of the field, while the
boys helped the badly-frightened Dan
over the wall and hurried over them
selves as two meu with r I lie 3 made
their appearance.
Stopping for a while to take breath
the bull glared around him as If uncer
tain what to do next. He bad not much
time for decision, however, as two re
ports rang out heavily on the nlr, and
the bull fell headlong, rose with a roar
of pain and anger, and then, as another
shot echoed against the school walb,
fell again, with n thud, this time with
a bullet through bis heart.
"Three cheers for Dicky Ford!"
shouted the boys, as they gathered
round the dead beast. And they gave
them, too, with a will, while Dan, with
tears in his eyes. In broken tones
begged Dicky's pardon for calling blm
a coward.
"Fancy going for a bull with a foot
ball!" they all cried; "why, nobody but
Dicky would have thought of such a
thing."
"I don't know why I did It," said
Dick, blushing at the enthusiastic greet
ings of the other boys; "but I Just
thought perhaps n kick at tbe bull with
a football might take his attention
away from Dan."
"Hurrah for Dicky Ford!" they all
shouted again; and Dickie could't help
thinking that he had bad, after all, his
revenge on tbe boy who called blm
coward. Wnverley Magazine.
