“What did you do that for?” he asked in a strange voice.
“ ’'Cause I was ’fraid you was fakin’ too much,” she answered withou
pausing to think whether he would be displeased. And they walked quickh
on in silence.
The Father went straight to the Little Mother’s room—went in and shut
the door. And when she came out all shaky and broken, all the children were
told was that the Father said the demijohn had cost fifteen dollars, and now
all that mony w T as wasted; and what would people say?—for everybody in
the neighborhood could smell it. But the children knew that was not all,
and looking at the Little Mother’s face as they sat down to supper they
had no thought for Aunt Susan’s hot tea and muffins.
The Father did not come, and the Little Mother went quietly back to
the room, they knew, to beg him, but returned more sad and troubled than
ever; and Trotty slipping down from her chair, took her turn at trying to
bring him. She got up in his lap and asked him timidly: “Wouldn’t he
come to supper?” But no—“ Father didn’t want any supper,” he said.
William waiting at table reported to Aunt Susan as he got his second
relay of muffins.
“Breakin’ dat dimijohn ain’t gwine do no good,” she said; “dar’ll be
another here fust thing nex’ week. You watch what I tell’s yer!”
And sure enough it was so. For this is a true story, or rather, it is one
chapter out of a story lived by real people, and that has not ended as some
times they do in books. Paul Lincoln.
Sonnet.
When souls are pure, oh, then ’tis sweet to die
And go to rest beneath the quiet sod;
And taking wing, to course our flight on high
And cast ourselves before the feet of God.
When all low Earthly things are downward hurled.
And we arise unto a better world.
And as the sun, declining in the west,
In shining on a cloud that hangs on high,
Imparts to it a glory manifest,
And tints with gold the occidental sky,
So does the grace of God like holy light,
In falling on a soul from evil riven
All innocent and pure and spotless white,
Suffuse it with a glory of high heaven.
W. Van Goidtsnoven.
