No matter what our faults have been, - The angel, Death, steals gently in, And covers over every sin, Under the sod. Our brother man we hated so, And wished him every mortal woe We pity, as he lieth low, Under the sod. Oh! could we to the truth agree As taught by Him of Galillee. How different would our judgment be Above the sod! LEO?NIE. --- 'Miss Cameron.' Leonie Cameron, lazily looking Dut of a bow window upon a gar den flaming with autumn tints and sunset glow, lifted a pair of soft dark eyes to Mts. Tollman's face. It was an anxious face just at that moment, and, being usually full of placid content, the arxiety was very apparent to Leonie. So, af ter her first careless glance, she straightened herself in her low chair, and said, qietly, yet with every appearance of interest : 'What is the matter ?' An awkward pause followed that question. Mrs. Toliman fidgeted under the inquiring glance of the dark eyes, cleared her throat twice, and fin ally said, with nervous empha sis 'John Furber.' Miss Cameron's face seemed to freeze. It was a very beautiful face, with pride for a leading ex ression. Sweetness lurked in the mouth, intellect beamed from the radiant dark eyes, but pride shadowed all. It~ carried the small head grac.efully erect, it swept the folds of the dress with a regal motion. It touched the small patrician bands, and was evident in the well modulated tones of the refined voice. 'There,' Mrs. Tollman said de spairingly. 'I've made you angry already, and haven't said any thing.' 'I am not angry,' Leonie an swered, and there certainly lurk. ed a smile in her mouth at the good woman's consternation ; 'but you have not told me what trou bles y ou.' 'It's-its-John, Miss Cameron, and-, then rapidly,as if the words were forced by a fear of her own inability to finish her self appoint ed task, she hurried on: 'He's my nephew, Miss, as you know, though his father is a rich man, very rich, and John is above his moher's place in her life. She's dead, and John was spoiled some where between the year she died and two years ago. I don't know whre he took to bad ways. He was brought up an idler upon his father's money, and from idleness to drinking,gambling and bad w ay s is an easy road. His father is a hard man and he thrust him out nearly a year ago and disinherited him. He came here, for I love him. I've nothing else to leve ; hus band and children in the grave yards, so I love John.' There was a piteous pleading in the woman's face, but Leonie's was blank, save for an air of polite interest. 'He was most desperate when he came here but I've coaxed him up a little. But-buL-O, Miss Cameron, you know what I want to say. You are beautiful, rich a lady far above me in education and position, and only staying ere for country quiet. I've no0 right to find fault, but-but-don't firt witb John. He is in trouble, despondent, disinherited, and he's falling in love with you as fast as he can. I believe if you play with him, he will kill himself, body and soul.'I Fairly out of breath with her own earnest utterance, Mrs. Toll man paused, looking pleadi ngly in Leonie Cameron's face. The ex presion of polite interest never wavered, a that yong lady said: ,If I understand you aright, you wish me to ignore your nephew. It is not so easy, as he is in your house, so I had better leave it.' 'Goodness!' cried the widow, sgbast, at this interpretation of ber words. 'I never meant that. Where can you find another board ng place near here?' 'I can return to London.' 'I've put my foot in it. John will never forgive me,' said Mrs. rollman, disconsolately. But there was no sympathy in Leonie's face, and she turned away t last, perplexed and more anxi ous than ever. And Leonie, sink. ng bjck in her chair again, look Ad at the sunset clouds and varie gated foliage, and thought per haps it was time to return to Lon Ion. She had come to S-, weary with a round of fashionable life, Ared of flattery, dancing, flirting, nd she bad found rest and quiet tnder Mrs. Tollman's motherly aare. She was rich, richer far than the landlady had any idea of; but She bad no near relatives, only a second cousin, to keep her lonely home and play propriety. Society constituted itself her amateur guardian, and, lying back in her cusbioned chair, in the sun. set glow, she wondered indolently what society would say about John Furber. It would grant him a rare perfection of manly be.uty of face and form, and forgive the evident traces of dissipation, if it was only known that he was the son of a rich man, and had been educated an idler by profession. But in what holy horror it would turn aA ay with uplifted hands when it was known that he was disinherited, with no home but a room in the house of a widowed aunt eking out her narrow income by taking in boarders. It would smile at his biting sarcasm, his brilliant conversation, cynical sneers, if he was reinstated in bis father's fa vor, but how rude these would be in a poor man. Leonie, from thinking of socie ty's opinion, quite unconsciously glided unto considering her own. The dark browed man had made a fair portion of her summer pleas ure for three months, had been her cavalier in many country walks, drives, and sails, had quoted poetry under the trees, sun; in a superb baritone upon murmnuing waters, looked into her eyes on a moolit porch, and whispered delicately-worded flattery. No more than many another man had done. A beauty and rich, Miss Cameron had looked upon more than one languishing suitor, and forgotten him when her amuse ment wearied her. Scarcely a flirt-for she encouraged no down. right love-making, but a beautiful fascinating woman whb5 wounded hearts with merely careless grace. Musing in the sunset it was im pressed uyon the proud heart that unconsciously she had poisoned a life that was already sinking. There were capabilities for better things than dissipation or suicide in John Furber, and she shivered as she thought he might be upon some dangerous precipice waiting for the clasp of the hand to draw him back, or its repulse to throw him over. She passed in review her host of male friends, and found none who had wakened her heart to hours of such keen pleas ure as John Furber had given her. She tried to recall one mind whbose grasp of intellect had dwarfed her down as his had done, who had met her fairly in so many argu ments and worsted her, and she could only remembsr soft flattery of her 'A'onderful mind.' Finally, lifting her eyes with a sigh, she saw him leaning agaimst a tree opposite the low win dow, looking at her. A vivid flush stained her cheek as be said: 'What have you been thinking of? Yo,u have not stirred for half an hour. Only that your eyes were open, I should have thought you asleep.' 'Your powers of observaion are marvellous,' she answered, light ly. 'I was dreaming.' 'Of what?' 'The world in general, my world in particular. It is almost ti.mno I rturend there.' She was preparing for some pc lite show or regret, but not fo the ghastly change in his face. She shuddered, rememberin bis aunt's words. 'Going away ! Why, of cours( you would be soon,' he said, try ng to speak carelessly, while hi ayes hungrily devoured her fac( and his white, parched lips wer Irawn as if in sharp physical pair '1 have been here three months She said, feeling her own hear eche at its misery. 'Yes, yes! You will go certai: V.' 'And you,' she said very gentl you will be in the city, I pr sume. I should be glad to wel .ome you at my house.' 'No,' he said harshly; 'I wil )ot take such advantage of you rindness ; I am a man your friend ould tell you to shun, Miss Catm gron-a man who has wasted hi life till it is too late to take up th threads again. You do not knov perhaps, that my aunt keeps m from charity.' 'I know you have offended you father,' she answered ; 'but yo are a man scarcely thirty, and i is cowardly to talk of despair a your age.' Her words cut him like a whil lash. The dark blood mounted t his forehead as he repeated: 'Coward ! I mig.ht fight th world yet, but,' and here his ton was bitter, and yet strangely p, thetic,'the battle is scarcely wort winning. What would I gain Money? I do not r.iue it. P< sition ? I have thrown it behin me. I have played the fool, and must take a fool's wages.' '1 will not have you say so,' s1 said, roused by an earnestness sL never had intended to betray. 'Ye shall not uselessly throw awa your life.' A hope sprang to his eyes, ne there, lighting them to dazzlin radiance. 'Miss Cameron-Leonie,' h cried, 'were there a prize to wii were one hoart's hope centere upon me, I would trample dow these demons of temptation. would prove myself a man if had any motive.' There was no mistaking ti prayer in his eyes, the pleadingi bis voice. Only for one moment, close no to the low window, before a hari like a snow-flake fell upon h shoulder, a voice low and swee murmured low in his ear: 'Be a man for my sake.' She was gone before he spoki again, and be wandered off to tb woods to muse upon a possibilit of this new life. Thbe next day Mrs. Tollman loi her summer boarder. Socfet; languidly contemplating Mi: Cameron for the next three year found her eccentric. She was gay and grave b~ flases, fascinating in every mool but she was mysterionsly una) proachable. The bravest suitor found hsti self met at the point where frien< ly attentions merge into lover devotion by a wall of icy resers that was impassable. She nev< flirted, but she had the reputatio of a flirt, because she was populk and admired, and remained sing until she was twenty-seven. Sti was known to be truthful, and st had distinctly told several inquis tive lady friends that she was no engaged, so there was not eve the spice of romance in the gossi) S- knew her not in thos three years, but Mrs. Toldman wi recipient of various hampers < city delicacies from her, an would acknowlcdge the sameb letter. One of these, dated three yeai after the beautiful Miss Camero left S--, after elaborately than I ing that young lady for a hamp( of dainties, added : Do you remember my nephev Jo n Furber?

So, society had a ripple of se sation in a rashionablo weddii e when John Furber married M e Leonie Cameron. y But only you and I, read know the romance of that sumn t in S-, or how John Furber 7, deemed his manhood for Leoni is sake.

Debating what sort of sign 2e it was best to put up for the pur. DI pose of attracting attention, at last be a happy idea struck him. He be I bored an auger-hole througb the is door-post, stuck a calf's tail into it. with the bush end flaunting out After awhile he noticed.a grave he looking porionage standing neai . the door, with his spectacles, gaz )ft ing intently on the sign. And in there he continued to stand, gaz s ing and gazing, until the curiosity of the proprietor was greatly ex cited in turn.

B. Gough makes about $20, The following superstitions, handed down by tradition, are yet fervently believed in many parts of America. White specks on the nails are luck. Whoever reads epitaphs loses his memory. To rock the cradle when empty is injurious to the child. To eat wbile a bell is tolling for. a funeral causes toothache. The crowing of a hen indicates some approaching disaster. When a 'mouse gnaws a hole, some misfortune may be appre L ended. He- who- has teeth' wide apart must seek his fortune in a distant land. Beggar's bread should be give.n to children who are slow in learn ing to speak. Whoever finds a four-leaf tre foil-shamrock-honld wear it for good luck. If a child less than twelve months old-be brought into a cel lar, be becomes fearful. When children play soldiers-on the roadside, it forbodes .the ap proach of war. A child grows proud if suffered ' to look into the mirror wbileless than twelve months old. He who proposes moving into a new house must first send in bread and a new broonr. Whoever sneezes at an early hour either hears some news or receives some present the same day. The first tooth cast by a child should be swallowed by the mo ther, to insure a new growth of teeth. Buttoning the coat awry, or drawing a stocking on inside out, causes matters to go wrong dur ing the day. By bending the head to the hol low of the arm, the initial letter of one's future spouse is represent. ed. Women: who sow flax should, during the process, tell-some black lies, otherwise the yarn will never bleach white. When women are~stuffEng beds, -the men should not remain in the house, otherwise th-e feathers will come through -thbe ticks. Whenr a person enters a room he should be obliged to sit down if only for a moment,-as- he other >wise takes away the children's sleep with him~ The following are omens of -death: A dog's scratchirig on. fthe floor or howling in a peculiar manner, and owls booting in the neighborhood of the house. Domestic harmony must be pre served .when 'w ashing day comes, >in order :o insure fine weather, which is indispensable, as that ceremony is generally performed out of doors. .PorUtA1a EaRos.-To think Fthat the more a man:eats the fat ter and stronger he will b,ecome.
