Remember and regret not,
Mayhap. indeed, curess not,
But ever to forget not,
Is better than enough.

A summer swallow bringing
Some word or love's replviag,

And swt;et and subtie seeming,
Fulfillment overtaking,

In a richly-furnished parlor, its
rimson curtaims closely drawn to
hut out the piercing %inter
ight, before a glowing fire, sat
laurice Greenwood, merchant.
omewhat more tban fifty years
ad written their record of his
fe; but his hair was thickly
Prinkled with gray. and bis face,
-ith its deep-set bazel eyes and
ompressed mouth, seemed like
bat of one much clder.
That face was one where will
?as graven on every feature, as
vith a pen of iron and diamond
oint. But some regret, some
asting shade there was, about
row, and eyes, and mouth. and
[aurice Greenwood was not bap
Iv.
Wealth he had, and every out
rard means of happiness, save
ear faces, by ~his fireside, and
ones of home affection. These
e had not; in his palace-like
tome he lived alone.
Ah, there was a shadow on
&aurice Greenwood's hearth and
eart; one, too, of his own mak
ng.
His wife slept beneath the
reen shades of the cemetery ;
ond his only daughter, his beauti
,1, gentle, true-hearted Annie,
vas no longer at his side. She
iad kept her faith with the lover
vbo .lacked only gold ; and for
his be bad banished her from
iis home, and tried to banish her
wage from his thoughts. P>ut
hat he could not do. He knew
ot where Annie was ; whether,
~ven, she were living or uot.
Time passed on, and he became
tcastomed to his lonely life ; yet
~he regret he could not banish,
~mbittered every quiet hour.
At times, when, as now, he sat
done by his deserted fireside, the
bought of his daughter grew so
ivid that she seemed to stand
eside him. Tbe white brow, the
-adiant wavy hair of golden
rown, were the samie ; but the
lue eyes with a sad, reproachful
ook, gazed steadily into his own.
Once or twice the illusion had
een so strong that involuntarily
e stretched his arms toward her
nd called her name, and his
ousekeeper, perhaps coming in
with his tea-tray, had found him
early fainting, or, as he always
answered, 'tired.'
'I do declare,' she said to an in
imarte friend, 'if he would get his
aughter home, with her husband,
nd treat her like a father, how
appy the man might be ! Likely
mough, they've little children
,at would make the old house
dive again, and it's more like a
omb than anything else. But,
ear me, there's no knowing
whether she's alive ; wonder if be
nows? never can ask him ; it
won't do to mention her name;
ust set him against her still more,
f that could be ; but I wish I
new ! To think I cradled her
o my breast, same as I did him
efore her, and I never thought
o see my boy like this; just mnak
ng himself wrecbed for the sake
f worrying his own flesh and
blood.'
'Ten years today, since Miriam
eft me,' said- Maurice Greenwood
o himself.
It was a mild, sunny spring
morning and opening leaf-bud&
and a scent, of garden violets, ever
in the busy city, brought glac
tidings of that which should be
A suddn impulse came over him
to vesit tiriam's grave, and he re
solved to ride out to the cemetery
that afternoon.
It was a lovely, shaded spot
near the river, and the early flow
ers were beginning to bloom.
Maurice Green wood stood there
alone in the still glow of sunlight,
that wrapped the 'city of the
silent' as in God's great peace;
and in those moments a glimpse
of a higher, better life dawned on
his soul.
What startled ahim ? What
made the strong man tremble in
every nerve ? For the moment it
seemed to him a vision. A young
girl passed with a basket of flow
ers on her arm.
He had only a glimpse of her
face, but the golden brown hair
beneath the little sun-bat, the
form, the step and bearing were
Annie's own !
A great hunger sprang up in
his heart and he could not resist
tbu impulse to follow her. He
did so, silently, not to attract her
attention. She did not see him
approach, as she sat on the grass
twining a wreath of the flowers
she had brought, and singing a
low, sweet melody ; One that An
nie loved, and often sang.
He drew nearer; near enough
to read the inscription on the
marble tablet - before her. His
daughter's name was graven
there, and the man with difficulty
repressed a cry of pain. The
young girl turned her head ; she
saw him, and sprang to her feet.
'Pardon me, young lady,' he
said courteously, 'for my seeming
intrusion. 'She who lies here was
very dear to me; but I have not
seen her these many years, and I
did not know of this.'
His manner, his gray hair, and
worn, sad face, reassured her, and
she remained awhile, answering
simply and frankly his inquiries
about her father and home. She
was the only child his Annie left,
and likely soon to be quite alone,
for her father was fast failing.
Maurice pondered. What should
he do? Could he tell her that
he was her grand-father ? Would
she not fly from him as from a
savage beast if she should know
that he was the father who turn
ed her gentle mother from his
heart and home, and left her to
die in poverty and pain ? But
she must know or he could make no
reparation. And his good angel told
him that Annie would forget, in
kindness shown her loved ones,
even at this late hour, the deep
and hitter wrong done herself.
'I have a. carriage waiting at
the gate,' he said, at last. 'Will
you allow me to carry you home
and see your father ?'
But the revelations made there
are not for mortal pen to describe.
When he left, there was peace
between them.
It was but a little time that
the sick man lingered, Maurice
doing all he could for his aid and
comfort, and he went to his rest,
happy in the assurance that
Grace Brown should ever-hold her
mother's place in the heart and
home of the repentant old man.
This promise Maurice sought
earnestly to fulfil, and though his
daughter's presence seemed still
conscious at times the shadow on
his heart grew less, and not all of
pain. Yet thoughts of the unre
turning past, regret, softened
though it were, served in after
years as a warning, a beacon, the
reminder his impervious will still
needed.
Five years have passed since
Grace Brown came to Kdaurice
Greenwood. Her presence has be
come the sunlight of his horne;
her voice the sweetest music that
meets his ear ; her band alone
rests on his temples with sooth
ing touch, when sad memories
oppress him ; and even, as she
comes near, the shadows on the
hearth Bud heart grow less.
He sits musing alone this even
ing, and a shade of troubled
thought is on his brow. Rarely
does he talk to himself but he
feels lonely now, though Grace
Brown has been away but one
short day.
'Five years I' he says. 'How
happy we have been I And here
this girlish fancy must upset it all.

my pride, my beauty to take

A look of intense pain passe
over the old's man's face, and E
murmured:

excitement.
'Will you have dinner now, si

'But isn't it time for her to I

'It is a little late to-night, si

'Late ' The old man sprang
his feet as if his years had sa
denly rolled from him. 'Late!' I
repeated, as he hurriedly glanci
at the clock, and then walked n(
vously to the window and ba
again.
The door-bell rang. An insta
after Grace's merry voice woui
through the entries and up t
stairs, and in she came, radia
with health and happiness, ju
as she had parted from him in t
morning.
'Oh, grandpa, such a splend

'No, indeed. What made y

'Happy child I' thought Mauri
Greenwood. 'God helping n
I'll not break her heart-oni
enough ;' and the shadow gr
less than ever.
A year went by. Frank Sb
ley had become a junior partr
in the firm of Green wood & C
and in the old family mansior
bridal feast was made.
'Ah!' thought the housekeep
as she herself fastened the wh
dress, and placed the orange bI
