THE LIGHT OF LOVE. Dark is the night! The hills are hid; Nor on the earth, nor skies ami^, There gleams a ray of light. Dark is the day! The future, hid; But shining bright the gloom amid, Her love illumes the way. ?Garfield Fuller, in Gunter's. The Pink Dress. By MARION PORTER. Thf?v oat tncpthpr nn the Blairs piazza as Hester broke the hard news as gently as she could. He had beer so glad to see her upon her return from the city?so eager to see what she had accomplished?so willing tc praise. It hurt Hester to see him so brave about it. "I didn't think even the city and a year's study could make you forget me." was all he said when she had finished and was looking at him appealinglv. "It isn't that I don't admire and love you, Jasper," she protested. "It's only that living in the city and seeing bo much going on somehow makes Fou long to do something for yourself. Before I left here I dreamed of nothing but a home with you. But this year?it's made me long for other things." "What kind of things?" "I know you'll think it's silly," she hesitated. "I can't explain the hold these things?luxury, friends, good times?have upon me. I suppose it's because I've lived such a quiet life." "It was a happy one before you itnew anything better," he said sadly. ^5,1 vn? first tool *Mq 1 f>Tl eH T) 2 W UCU liiu J UU Ut?V for new things?" She laughed, a little ashamed. "There was a pink silk gown in a store window near where I boarded. It was beautiful, Jasper. It was made of lace and silver tissue and beautiful shimmery silk. I used to look at it day after day and by and by I went in and asked how much it cost. It was $300. I began to wonder if I could ever own such a dress. Afterward, when they gave me so much encouragement about my voice, I began to hope I might. Now it has come to the place where I know that if I work hard I can." He looked at her thoughtfully a long while. When at last he rose tc go he took her hand in his and held it. "I'm sorry, Hetty, for myself and for you," he said gently. "Somehow I feel as if you won't be happy in this new life, but I wish you luck, dear, and all success. Some time, when I, too, have made something ot myself, I'm coming to see you again and find out if you did well to choose between me and a pink dress." "When you come," she said steadfastly, "I shall be ready to show you, I am sure." fP^r* vfldKp olonao^ "PTocf pr "Rlair awoke one morning in her luxurious, half-darkened room, forgetful of the great triumph of the night before, forgetful of everything except that she was tired. The sun fell in little streaks past the sides of the window Bhades and made long, bright lines on the floor. There was no joy for Hester in waking up. No consciousness of rest or renewed vigor. Simply the same dread of the beginning of a new day, which she had felt every morning for the last two tired years. She called the maid and asked to have the mail brought in. The woman slipped out silently and returned with a handful of letters. Hester dragged the pillows into a mass as the curtains were being raised and leaned back against their support, There were a half-dozen congratulations on last night's performance, an invitation to dinner, two or three pleas for interviews from ambitious young singers. She read them through without interest, and separated them into piles to be answered later. At last there was only one en ' velope left ? a broad, thin one marked in a clear, decisive hand. She looked at it silently, but with a shod of recognition. At last ? after ter years. She broke the seal with a faltering hand. \ "My dear Hester." she read. "The time has come when, as business calls me to your city, I am going to youi concert of the 10th and hear yoi sing. You remember, I said I woulc see you some time. I am sure yoi will still have sufficient interest in ar old friend to be glad to hear that ! am about to be married. I hope t< have the pleasure of presenting m] future wife to you after the concert if you will let me. I am looking for ward with great pleasure to meetins you again. Yours faithfully, "JASPER HUNT." The paper fluttered from Hester*! fingers and she lay still. Until nov sbe had not realized how she hat hoped that he had remained unmar ried so long for her sake. She ha< not realized how utterly dreary lifi would look when the one little possi billty of happiness that she had hel< in her heart was banished forever After a while she sat up, thinking in tensely. He would see how every thing was. He would know that hi prophecy had come true. She couli not bear it. She lived over the inter view of ten years ago. A bitter smil curved her lips as she thought of th pink dress. "And I have worked so hard?ani cared so little that I have neve thought of a pink dress for years, she whispered to herself. It set he thinking on a ne.7 line. "Why not," she said aloud after few moments. "It is the only idea that I ever had that I can realize, wanted friends and I have not one. wanted good times ar.d luxury. Oh of what use are such things when on is weary and cannot enjoy them. Bu there was a time when I wanted pink silk dress, and I can have it an I will." She called the maid and dresse hurriedly with her help. Later sh drove down town to call upon he L dressmaker. The latter was rauc ^ astonished by the order which sb | gave, but Hester was nrm. i ne areas t I must be cascades of beautiful lace I upon it. Madame shrugged her i shoulders and consented to make the ! gown at once. "I must have it for the concert of j the 10th." said Hester. The gown came home in the after- ; noon while Hester was asleep in preparation for the evening. The maid j opened the box and spread out the ) rich folds of lace and silk with ?n exclamation of wonder. Hester's taste j was not usually like this. Even when at last she had it on the maid could i not seem to make it natural. There i was a carmine spot in either of the ; singer's cheeks. She had never looked I so well. Her manager gasped as she j ; swept into the anteroom. The man i who came to warn her that it was time for her to go on stared with wonder. Hester noticed neither of i them. One moment she hesitated i i and then went out, brave in the beau-i ty of the pink dress. : The critics said afterward that she 1 had never sung so well. They spok? 1 of her high notes and her phrasing and her intelligence. Hester knew i nothing during the whole perform- I ; ance but that he sat breatlessly in a box above the stage, leaning out, won dering, admiringly. She hardly noticed the woman at his side, so busy was she in singing to him. At the ? close of the last number amid the ' crash of applause she saw him writi ing something. Then as a great bunch of violets fell at her feet and as she picked it up she saw that he had written a message on his card. She did not pause to read it, but ran out?sickly?eager to be away. She had done what she tried to do and she wa3 tired. Later when the maid had been dismissed she sat by her Are and looked at the violets lying in her 1 lap. Upon the card she took it out she read this: "You are wonderful. I take back my prophecy. You have won a victory." She raised her head with her eyes full of tears. The pink dress lay in all its beauty before her. "A victory," she said, "a victory." ?Boston Post. BURDEN OP PROOF.

( One of Her Atrocious Deeds is Now Basis of Searchr For Treasure. ] Three hundred and twenty years ago, in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, of blessed memory, the Spanish Armada, broken and beaten by the English fleet, fled northward and around Scotland to meet with storm and I wreck on the Scottish coast. One of j the great ships, the Floridaf more fortunate than others, found her way into the Bay of Tobermory, on the Sound of Mull. The Spaniards, thinking themselves safe in those neutral waters, leisurely began repairing the ship and provisioning the troops. Scottish visitors came to the vessel and were hospitably entertained. News of these happenings came to Queen Blizabeth. She waa advised there were costly stores and much money on the Florida. She determined the vessel should be destroyed and not be allowed to escape to Spain. The man chosen for the work of destruction was named Smollett, an ancestor, it is said, of the novelist. He went to Mull as a drover, and as * he spoke Gaelic and wore the Highland dress, he had no difficulty in going aboard the Florida. Watching his opportunity, he placed combustibles in the magazine, and shortly after he went ashore the ship blew up. Nearly all on board perished, including a number of Scottish visitors. The vessel and the treasure were gone but not forgotten, for in this prosaic money hunting age an effort is being made to recover the treasure buried so many years in the sands of Tobermory Bay. Queen Elizabeth, not by any means i always nice in her methods, as witr nPRs hpr nart.JH nation in thf* murder of Mary, Queen of Scots, by this act did a most atrocious thing, as the law ' of nations should have been a protection to the Florida in this neutral . port.
