They floated to me through an open window-a window in n tiny, little, unprotonoUtig hbttse across .a barren, dusty garden patch. I know not to whom tho tender words wer? addressed; I know^not what manner tpf lip? framed them; I only know that ahornan heart was made glad by them, and I know that there Was a home within those humble witta. * . .' ., , The words swept me backward on mo mory'e tide; until I forgot that I was a lonely old maid. Forgot that the bair was thin and ' white, whereon gentle hands used tenderly to rest, as loving lips called me "darling," in the long, long ago. ( Forgot that the eyes that onoe had grown brighter at tho sound, were faded how and dimmed by sorrow. For? got that the heart whioh was still so quick to respond to loving words, was beating in the bosom of one who stood alone itt. the world-utterly, desolately alone-alone forever. Backward, memory boro me, until I was once again ? little, tender child, with no greater sorrow than the breaking of a doJiiNrWh no graver puzzle for my little brain- than . the wondrous mystery of Santa Claus' identity; no deeper ques? tion to ponder than "where did the but ?Sgrflioa gjfctP?" Ohl happy little child, "Thrice HfbdchUd. Blest, in a mother, a f^j^Khope! 4HjjflHrhng." It is her voice I hear irj^^Hory's farthest recesses. A voice soWMFi so soft, so sweet, that it sounded ?&OTra echo from the Spirit Land. Sho was almost done with earth before her child came to know her, and when she went to loin the augel band, I am sure they welcomed her with hymns of joy, for she was of them and not of us. How lonely we were without her. My father and I; my stately father, whose voice seemed to take on a gentle tone whenever he laid hie hand on my curly hair and asked God to bless his mother leas darling. O father, dear father, como back from the land of shadows and bless your lonely child once more. Come back, and let the world-weary woman forget her desolation in the thought that she is onoe again somebody's darling. My darling-once again I hoar the magic words echoing through the cham? bers of my heart-chatnbors whose one? time guests lie Blumbering with the doad -chambers whence the light of joy hos fled forever. And to this echo my heart responds with wild, quick, passionate throbs, answering to the coll of my first, my one, my eternal love. Here, too-O ruthless memory!-"I smell the mould above the rose." No more. Memory's task grows bitter. Come back, poor dreamer, to your work - a-day World. Comeback to tho know? ledge that for you no moro is the bliss of loving and being loved. That for you the flowers of life have ceased to bloom, while .the thorns stand out bleak and sharp. But the joys I have tasted aro I mine forever. My memories are mino, and the dreary present is none the drea? rier for calling to mind tho time when I was somebody's darling. I New Orleans Sunday Times. A clergyman offered consolation to a dying New Orleans Alderman, telling him that it waa nature's decree that men should die; that resignation was n Chris? tian virtue, and that it was sweet to die. "What!" screamed the Alderman, "sweet to die!" "Yes, my dear friend, it is sweet to die. Don't you think so?" "Yes, sir, but I ain't fond of sweet things." Prosperity is not tho just scale; adver? sity is the only balance to weigh friends. Religion ia the best armor, bot the worst cloak. ^Liberality is, not giving wisely. Ho who makes an idol of his interest will make a martyr of hie own integrity. If yon would inoreaae in wisdom, yon most reflect. The mere sight of tilings amounts to nothing. A fool may go around the world and return a fool at last, because he baa no reflection. Ooo man learns more from a mole-hill than another does from a mountain. A crabbed old baohelor of our ac? quaintance aays that he never bears a placo oalled "Boee Cottage," without thinking of tho lota of thorns that there most be inside. A wise old gentleman, who knew all abont it, on retiring from businees, gave the foll owing sage advice to bis eon ?nd snooessor: "Common sense, my soo, la valuabl e in all kinds of business-except love making. Tuerais no row foVmoJo ,W parlor. It'Islrao0s,?B.b^^ ai one aide, sat Bose and Horace talking in an nnder-touo. I ?find that number three is crowded oat, aa number Arty could not be. It is a surplus, a some* thing to be carried, a useless fraction. I betake myself to the back porch. There I find Peleg and Pamela. 'They look at me so amiably-deceitful creatures!-and say, "Do Come and sit with us, Aunt Patty." With us, indeed! You are too sweet to be genuine, my dears," I reply, with as deceitfully amiable a grin. "I'm altogether too busy darning stockings;" and aside I add, "Darn the Blockings," with another emphasis; and retreat to the front baloony. Hero I find Confucius Jones and Arabella. They are talking volubly, but on my approach are stricken dumb. Arabella looks indignant, and glares at vacancy. I feel tempted to tell ber that the baloony is just os much mine as hers," but I remark upon tho moon instead and depart with dignity; at least, I hope so. The street door remains. I descend to this haven of peace. Bo? linda j amps violently, and cries, "Oh, I thought it was a moase," and Rufus nearly breaks the glass of the vestibule door with his elbow, and shakes bonds with me os though I had just returned from a journey with a will in his favor in my pocket, forgetting that I have greeted him already this very o vening. Why should I be taken for a mouse? Why should I be superfluously shaken bands with? Plainly because 1 am num? ber three. I retreat to the kitchen. Boso jumps up, all ablaze in the face, and an indi? vidual in his Sunday best ducks his head to me. "Me cousin, mum," says EOBO, "jest come in to tell me that me sister's broth? er-in-law's bobby is to be waked the mor ror." That identical baby has been "waked" ten times already. Perhaps Bosa has forgotten that. I am number three again. I retire "in confusion." As I fly I hear the "cousin" say, "What was she wantin'?" and Bosa roply, "Only to shpy on us. What else?" Where sholl I fly for air? since an odd number feminine has not the blessed privilege of an odd number masculine, and cannot fling on a hat and stroll out into the moonlight. I climb to the roof. My pet Thomas cat is on the parapet, evidently paying court to a white kitten with a blue ribbon on her neck, who resides next door. He looks at me and says angrily and offensively, "Miunll." Even here I am nnmber three. I de? scend in despair and retire without pat? ting my hair in crimps. "Why am I number three? Why did I settle down to darn stockings and bake pies for those darling young things who were "never going to leave Aunt Betty while they lived?" "Why did I say "No" to that pretty blue-eyed fellow who wanted me to be nnmber two? Why don't I go to tho top of a pillar, like Simon Stylites, and bo number one? I look at the three green china ornaments on tho toilette table, and pity the odd one. I wonder why any one ever thought of making an odd thing of any kind. I open my Bible, and read of Mr. and Mrs. Adam, and of Mr. and Mrs. Noah, and of the very beasts and beastesses going two and two into the ark. Tho only odd thing is the serpent-that probably made him so spiteful. And I go to sleep and dream that all the rest have ascended in pairs, as in the last scene of a "specta? cular drama," and that I am left alone in the midst of chaos, which has "come again." AUNT BETTY. "IF I ONXIV HAD CAPITAI?."-"If I only had capitol," wo heard a young maa say a few days ago, as he pulled away at a ten cent cigar, "I would do something." "If I only had capital," said another, as he walked away from a dram-shop, where he had just paid ten cents for a drink, "I would go into business." Tho same remark might have been heard from the young man loafing on the street corner. Young man with the cigar, you are smoking away your capital. You from the dram-shop are drinking 3'ours and destroying your body at tko same time; and you of tho street corner are wasting yours in idleness and forming bad habits. Dimes make dollars. Time is money. Don't wait for a fortuno to begiu with. If you had $10,000 a year and spent it all, you would be poor still. Our mon of power aud influence did not start with fortunes. You, too, can make your mark if you will. Bat you must stop spending your money for what you ! don't need, and squandering your timo I in idleness. Go to work. Do whatever you con find. Befuse no useful or honorable work until you can get better. It is not honest work that degrades men. Mako good use of your time. Save your earn? ings, and improve your leisure moments by storing your mind with useful know? ledge. Be true to your employer. Care for his interests as if they were your own. Such conduct will make you friends, aud a judicious economy will accumulate you capital. Then you mny begin for yourself whenever a favorable opportu? nity offers; and the samo industry, econo? my and attention to business will give yon a competence. This is tho way you can attain to power and influence. If you get them any other way, your bad habits will waste your patrimony and destroy your in duocce. If you are unwilling thus to labor for them, you aro unworthy to en? joy them. There still is no excellence without labor.
