The Lost Pleiad. -:0: "A Star would be a flower. Lost night there came to mIle in the ftill daikness a little bird, and pereb. Ing itselt on my pilb.w it. s-ng sweet songs to me. Atid this is oie r.f them. Lon1g, long ago, ah evnrybody kw.s, thero were seven Pleiads, sis t C rs. Likten, and t will tell of th dIII. Vrmtures of that ofh which omei say Is )o,t. Th seven sisters lived happily for any y'ors, 'msleeping by day, and by Iight playing hide, and seek behind tolft olouds that fliated over the sky, or binlging tle sweet star-musio which mortals canuot 1itt afier many thousand years of Lappinles,, dise.mlent crept into the Ie1t of tie largest a1nd bi'ightest of the seven. She was tired of being a star :iol wished to changn places with one if' he, fiair cousins, tihe floweris. Moreover, she loved ia zephyr. 8mar.i li.l wooted her vainly. Hor love was lix:d u1poln tho Liy, light breoz that roved in the garden o'er which I-he so of-en shonle. So at laIst she slipped mlway. It Was Venu's time to see that tlo stars were all ready to go-to sloop. I'hatt i what, mortals moan whou they say that Venus is the morning star. But I hey know nothing of her dutiC. lHow Should they ? Vetns Could not go (o ecle one sepe. rately, t. ) sec that theirfauces were down anld their hlair vimooUlh. FVmr it is against thue rles of star eti t ietIto for a star to Icave iti cour.,e. 13ut sho kept her bright cyo open and having viti .fied liorself th:1r all were0 in their polaces, bhe sank below the hori Voll. "N ow," thought the naughty Plaiad, "i. miy Chanee."

She rested on a blade of .grass ; bhe hid in a olump of violets I oho swayed on'the branobes of trees; she lay in a deserted bird's nest. Once climbing on a honey. suckle vine, she looked into a window, and saw lying oi a couch the gil who had walked in the gai den. Sho lay, pal and fair-, with i withered rose in bor band, and her golden hair like a halo in the moonlight. And still the lost Pluiad must gl on, for so much of her celestial nature clung to her. Weary, faint, broken hearted, her lustro dimmed, liar na. ture saddened, her hopes proved fahe, her dearmst wishes denied, sho longed, indeed, for her home, aid but that she must own herself in the wrong, be would now have tried to seek her home But the proud spirit was ut broken, and she would not ownl her fault, or asked to be recei ved into the home she had so wilfully left. After tany wanderings, she come to a still churchyard. S) quiet it secmed, so Calm and pea:-eful ill the punre noonight" it looked to the lost Pleiad even like unto the heavenly home sho had left. No longer proud, but humbled to the dust she sank oi a baby'a grave, and cried aloud-not to be taken back, only to be pardon ed. One, two, threo, on the hushed mid. night air, came borne the id notes of the p 8sing bell) tolling for the soul of the iaiden who lay dying. The maiden who wva8 glad to (lie in her youth and beauty , for her lover had gone down at sea. Seventeen, eigh-. teeln, ninleteen,-as the list stroke (died oi the still air, the same moun beam bore to heaven the ponitent star and the sinless soul of tihe uaiden, A ud the freed sotl rec.-gnised the star in the garden, and as they floated hea':enward together the stars, and the atigels, and the "spirits of the just Iade lerfect," joined the tri umnphal song of' welcome ; and with their oings were mixed the glad peals of the Citristmas climnes, and strains of the Christiman earola rising from the e:irth below. 13nt the lost 'leia-1 was doomed to shino no more for tihe space of hun. dreds of' years, for t:; beauty was marred, its streljgibI wated, and It mu,t bear the pini,ihment of its dis, content and disobedlence. Sometimes in the silent summer niights wlien flowers are sle,ping, or in the lung nights, which winter gives, when tlie earth is wrapped in white garments of snow, a lonely traveller may be staitled by the appearance of another 'leind, whose light is softer and more brilliant than the others. It is the lost Pleind, made perfect ''through suffering.' suffirod for a few brief moiments to claim itsplace. But ages most elz.pi e o'er it can be restored forever to the plaoe it once forfeited. So sang my bird, and so believe, spite of philosohors an.1 fools.
