O city bullded not by human hands.
And atretchlng far beyond alt reach of
thought.
Whose myriad mansions, ' beautiful and 1

Are far beyond what human hands hav
wrought;
That city hath no need of nun or moon.
No dawn there break nor evening shad

'Tin one unbroken and eternal noon.
The glory of the Christ doth light It all.
In that bright home shall come no grief
or pain.
Nothing to mar the perfect Ml; that reigns
Within the heart of all who truer In.
Up I rum the throne akfer.i, ire glad new

That only the redeemed from earth can
sing
"AH blessing, glory, praise and power be

King!"
This earth of ours Is full of beauty rare
What else could, be when made by Uod'i

Tet all thfe beauties but dim shadows ere
Of the trunicendfnt glories of that land.
No human eye hath st-en, nor ear hath

Nor boldest human heart hath e'er eon

On those who have the victory achieved.
There bloom In faded beauty fruits and
flowers
No human tongue may speak or pen re

And there the Tree of Life, with mystle

Is no more guarded by the flaming sword.
Joy In Its fullness sweeps through every

And love enraptures every quickened

A sweet and willing service prompts the
whole,
And praise crowns all as fruitage and as

O city or God and Saviour King,
From which we catch at times soma
strangling gleam
That e'en though lalnt surpasses every

Of which our brightest earth-born

THE child AgMha counted buttons,
and by so dnliitf Ik-oh in e the uu
vonscioua arbiter (if a dentin)'.
The years of Atfathu's life were as
ninny as were the Knerg on one of her
plump hands, and during this abort
time she hud always been n teller of
fortunes, doling out husbands to such
us were the happy poKHi-NHors of but
tons. For those poor creatures who
hud yielded to a mandate from fur-ulT
1'nrirt, and m'cepled hooka and eyes as
gowii-fiiHteiiiiitfS, Agatha could do
nolliing-not the trhost of a hiisbnttd
could hhe conjure up without the help
of her little round allies.
Hud yoti not a single one In sijrht
you were doomed to Mplnaterhood, but
If one Just one co'Ud be found
umonjr the folds of your draperies,
you were saved, and Agatha's fut fore
tinker would be laid upon It, while her
shrill little voice would auuoiinre tri
niupbmilly : "Kleh maul "--looking
into your eyes to find a reflection of
the Joy In her own dancing blue ones
at having so satisfactorily - thanks to
the button settled your fortune.
I he result of a two-hiiitoh fortune Hiie
always announced with a falling In
flection, and the corners of her mouth
would droop in copy of the expression
he had seen on oldur fares when "poor
man" wus found to be their portion.
At "heggiir man" her voire invariably
grew Mid and low.and if you were fool
ih enough to display four buttons,
the chubby finger would touch the
futal one mournfully, while a pitying
voice would murmur, as she shook her
golden curls, "thief," begging your
pardon for the cruet truth; but again
happy smiles would chase away the
sadness If doctor, lawyer, merchant
or chief fell to your lot. Two, three
and four were the only fortunes that
troubled the illtle lady.
Oh, but it was a thrilling game to
play! It was a grief to the child
Agatha that so seldom rould she in
dulge In It, owing ti the disappearance
of buttons from the feminine horizon.
Hut now and ntfaiii it would chance
that some one great enough to resist
the decree of fashion would drift her
way and display the longed for fas
leuingH. To such a one Agatha would
turn with screams of delight, while
the chubby hands would touch the but
tons lovingly, and the childish voice
ring out in words of prophecy.
It was a matinee day at the opera
house, and an enthusiastic throng was
Kiirging through the entrance gate, at
tracted by Mine. i'aUe as "I arinen."
The hoioie was crowded to the doors,
and when the iiurtniu rose on the
Sevilla Square there was not a vacant
seat 1 1 v hail, and scarcely an unfilled
hoi. No. 11 grand tier, how ever, was
empty, and many of those standing
turned envious ryes up to its comfurt
able seal a. For a matinee the audience
was brilliant, and one could see many
well-known faces from the "Mimrl set"
as well as the suburban sent (udders
and real muic lovers. Funetiona of
every sort had Uen karri rWd fur the
Idol of the hour, the cigarette girl,
'Carmen," and the house was gay w ith
handsome women and resplendent cos
t tune.
In hevt ral boxes of the grand tier
there were children, and one framed
a pretty, much iiotn-id picture. In it
sat gnl.li n hair d li;t and her blue

did not even ruisr her' lorgnrt' and
sweep the house with an inwntoryiiig
glance. Many glai-Krs, howew r, were
leveled at her. Kirn in the family
circle there was a murmur of recog
nition. Kydenham Wilinitghby's
laughter was familiar to ail classes of
society, for reporters heralded her iUf
liifrs and printed her portrait when
there was the slightest exciiae for it
and often when Ihere was none, be
cause ahe was a U-nuty as well as an
heiress. Innlur hack In her seat he
waa a raviHhinfr vIhIuii. Her black vel
vet costume was in sharp contrast to
the ivory-whiteness of her skin, and
there was an unumial charm in her
expression and luiiiiner, which her air
of unconcern heightened.
The curtain rose. Thera was twi
light and flre-rlow in the tmtifrirlcr's
stroiiKhold. The audience drew iilet
breaths while the strains of the ex
rjuisite prelude sounded. Klinore Wil
loiirhby looked on as one who. seeing,
sees not, anil having ears, hears not.
Bhs had not drifted to the opera house
that day, nor yet had she come to hear
"Carmen" for the twentieth time.
Kach motif and action she could an
ticipate, but for her there was no
motive of any importance except that
which was the key to herown personal
affair. The lingers might have been
puppets, might have left the stage, the
audience might have dispersed and
she would scarcely have tak u note of
it. She only saw before her those
scenes which for many days hud been
filling her mental vision.
Hbe. had come to the opera for free
dom; to think, to decide; to avoid
rpiestioning eyes and jetting voices,
for her world was wailing breathless
to hear the truth. The solitude of her
own room was oppressive-- khe craved
the alonenesi that only n crowd can
give. To come to a decision-- why
should she? Life was pure pleasure
us it had been why must it change?
She was possessed with I feeling of
profound irritatiou that all the po
tentialities vof wealth and beauty
which before had shielded b r from
every annoyance now availed nothing.
Decision could not be bought not put
aside on any prstext. What should
she do? Which should It lie? Pros
and cons presented themselves in
quick succession. Moods ns varying aa
the colors In a bubble claimed her for
their own. What should she do?
In the stage twilight Mercedes and
Prasiiiitji shufilsd cards and read their
destinies in clear tones. To Klinore
ths recitative brought only the famil
iar voice of one in her miml-picture;
'luomo die amareil iimiiro!" ("Him 1
loved and will love ever"). Ilrfore
Klinore Ihere stood a form, young and
fining and masterful, with a proud
joy In smile and gesture. There waa
moonlight - the dash of waves over the
rocks-a woman's promise given.
"I'll amor dl Carmen non pun
duriir!" ("Carmen's love does not
last").
(JulrUly KUiinrs's first, mind picture
gave place to a more brilliant one, and
in it she was central figure against a
background of the luxuries she loved.
She saw a retinue of attendants, thor
oughbred horses, rnte jewels, houses
and lands ami beside her small, bent
ami insignificant the master of It all.
With nervous restlessness she changed
her position, feeling Ihut emotion waa
overmastering the voice of calm rea
son, 'the curtain fell on the twilight
scene, the lights flushed high attain.
Klinore drew herself up In dignlrled
erectnrsa as if to defy the weakness
thai was enticing her, and spoke with
in herself.
"It is right and best. The other
would be madness. I should he un
hup ," toil even the thought shrank
back untlnishrd ill the priei nce of a
great truth. Hush! the first violin
the haunting, thrilling Toreador mu

wave of stern resolve. And jet the

The pastor, Peter Moerdyke, in yield

the vice-president had "already given

the text of His sere t's sermon, 111 which
he 1 1 110111 il a sluggard in faith to a slug
gard in l u-ine.ss. "Heroism," he said,
"does not consist in striking deeds
alone; it is in little things of daily life
that the noblest heroism is proved. A
man might perform one f un, his, gallant
deed nml vi t be a coward in the worst
sense. The greatest heroes are those
whose mums arc unknown of men. but

many have surrendered to a handsome
face or a dashing manner even though
their possessors were men of plebeian
birth, says a London exchange.
Princess Isabella, grandauut of the
present king of Spain, eloped wi:h the
Polish Count tlnrowski. One dark
night the count repaired with a car
riage to Knghien, near 1'aris, where
his inamorata lived. Leaving her
house by means of a rope holder, she
soon joined him, and the couple es
caped safely to this country, where
they were married. Alas, the glamour
soon faded, for after awhile the pair
quarreled and a separation ultimately
ensued.
Kven more romantic was the elope
ment of her sister, Princess Joseph
ine. A certain Senor Henede, a poet of
. t: . .
promise and a journalist attached to a
; J . ,
Havana paper, askeil a rich planter for
his daughter's hand, with the result
I that he was ignoininiously shown the
dl)I)r Kurioii,, at t,iK treatment, the
y1)UK poet 8Wlire that he wotild'show
the W()rld nU worth by marrying a
princess.
Quitting Cuba, he journeyed to Mad
rid, where, after years of want and
suffering, he gained a reputation as
a poet. At last his genius uttracted
the notice of Princess Josephine, to
whom he had dedicated several of his
elTus?:ns. The royal lady made his
actitaintance and became enamored
with the poet. Her love was returned,
t(fe pair eloped to Paris. On heuring
the news the princess' family were
aghast and strove by every means to
have the marriage annulled. Their ef
forts were, however, futile, and, com
mon sense at length prevailing, the
poet and his royal bride were for-
given hiuI taken into favor
Some six rears since Princess Kliza-
beth, a graiiihlaughter of Ihe emperor
of Austria, fixed her affections upon
Karon Otto 'on Seefricd, a young in
fantry lieutenant. Her relatives' ef
forts to prevent the mesalliance were
of no avail, for oae morning the lovers
escaped to (lenoa, where they were
married. Another Austrian royalty.
Princess Klvira, likewise contracted a
runaway marriage hv eloping with a
Havarian count,- while the mother of
the present tpieen of Italy eloped with
an artillery otliccr, who, on the union
turning out unhappy, committed sui-
, cide.
Siittie two years since a desperate
duel was fought between Lieut, (iezn
De Matachich and Prince Philip ' of
Sn xe-Cuhurg, in which the lailer was
wounded. This encounter was the out
eonicof the action taken by the prince's
wife, lriifcess Lou is , eldest daughter
of the king of the llclgians. who, driven
to desperation be her husband's cruel
ty, had. after vainly appealing to her
father for protection, thrown herself
upon the honor of the" Hungarian olli
rer of hussars, with whom she lied to
Spain.
An elopement that failed was that
planned by Grand Duchess Olga,
