I.isten not, my iove, I pray
To the tale they’ve told to thee—
’Tis not true; the words they say:
I have e’er been true to thee.
None but thee my heart has known,
It shall ever heat for thee.
Love, my heart is all thine own,
Thou art nil the world to me !
Do believe me, then, I pray,
, I have e’er been true to thee—
Tou'll remember wbat I lay
When the daisies cover me.
Come, my love, ch I come, I pray!
Eo not longer stay away
Listen not, to what they say—.
I have e’er been true to thee.
In the yens before us yet
We may 3till so happy be—
And the past we will forget,
If you come, my love, to me.
Do believe me, then I pray,
I have e’er been true to thee—
You’ll remember what I say,
When the daisies cover me.
JEALOUSY PUSHED.
[Selected.]
Lilian Whitney looked out into
the gathering twilight—her fair
face, with the nut-brown curls
clinging about it, brought out in
startling relief by a background of
vivid blush roses.
She was expecting her lover—
noble, handsome Frank Carleton !
Only a week ago he had poured in
to her ears the story of his love,
and had asked her to be his wife.
And she smiled softly and blush
ed as oho looked at the diamond
tl ring which gleamed in the tender
Ugh* cf t>u glorious Juno moon,
just grandly rising behind the far
off purple hills.
“Oh,” murmured Lilian, “what
have I ever done that such a grand,
noble man should love me?”
The love-light in her eyes be
came brighter, the blushes on her
cheek deepened, for she heard a
footstep which she could never mis
take.
With a fluttering heart Lilian
shrunk back among the rosebushes,
thinking fondly that Frank would
soon find her.
But Frank Carleton was not
alone—for a woman, tall and grace
ful in form, dreseed in sembre
black, was walking beside him.
Hark! Frank was speaking; and
Lilian strained her ears to hear
What a look of love and devotion
there was on his face as he beet,
over her! Lilian clinched her
hands, and her lips grew white and
rigid.
“Dear Maud,” he said, softly
and tenderly, “you can never
guess how very, very thankful 1
am that that man is dead. Now
you are free, and nothing shall
part os again.”
“Nothing, Frank?” she said,
looking up at him; and Lilian could
see the passionate love shining in
his eyes. “Not even your mar
riage with this beautiful Aftss
Wbitney?”
'■Surely not.” ho answered, al
most reproachfully. “Why should
it?”
And then they passed on.
With a low moan, Lilian fell
prone among the rosebushes.
Lilian did not stop to reason
did not stop to considerthat there
might be a mistake—that deceit
and falsehood had ever been for
eign to Frank Carloton’s nature.
And so the next day Frank re
ceived a small package—a few
books, soma old love letters, and
a diamond ring. There was no
noto of explanation; but he well
knew who had sent them.
Enraged and astounded, he im
mediately sought Lilian for an ex
planation; but the servant who an
swered his impatient ring said that
she was “not at home.
[ESTABLISHED TV THE YEAR 1805).
A week later, Frank C&f'eton
started for Europe; and so these
two 1 ive9, that might have boen all
in all to each other, drifted furth*
er and further apart.
Fiv6 venrs later. It was the
evening of Mrs. Roderick Forrost's
ball, and the best society of Mel
ville was there.
Lilian Whitney leaned back in
the embrasure of one of the win
dows, and, hidden by the flowing
draperies of the curtains, watchod
with droamv, half-closed eyes, the
bright, merry throng in the ball
room.
Her beauty was moro spiriluelle
than it had been five years ago,and
the proud look on her face had
softened into more lender, more
womanly curves. Sfoe was decid
edly the belle of the evening, and
it was only by much skillful manu
vering that she had been able to
gain this quiet retreat for a few
moments.
All at once she caught her
breath with a sudden gasp of pain,
and, placing her hand on her heart
to stop its wild beating, leaned for
ward and peered out.
Yes, it was surely Frank Carle'
ton she saw, though he was much
changed. Tall and straight, and
browned, with heavy mustache and
board, he looked at least ten
years older, and certainly ■ great
deal more handsome and manly,
than he had looked five years ago.
“ ZTow noble he looks !” Lilian
thought, with a sud len thrill: “Oh,
hew could I misjudge him 89 I’J
ray dark suspicions? And now I
have lost him for evor!”
Atid the hot tears of bitter an
guish and remorse trickled between
her daintily gloved fingers.
The curtains parted, and Mrs.
Roderick Forrest and Frank Carl
eton stood before her.
“Lillie, love, you thought you
would outwit us this time, but you
see you have failed, for I knew
where you were all the time. AD
low me to present . Why,
child, are you ill ?”
For, white and trembling, our
heroine had sunk down, looking
like a broken lily.
She had thought she could bear
the meeting firmly and calmly, hut
her strength failed her at the last
moment.
When, a few minutes later, she
opened her eyes, she found Frank
Carleton's arms were about her,
and that he was showering kisses
on her face.
For a moment she felt as if she
could die for vsry happiness.
“Frank,” she whispered, “oh,
Frank, can you forgive me after I
have wronged you so deeply?”
“Hush !” he said; “hush, my
darling! I have nothing to for*
give!”
“She has toll me all,” she went
on—“your sister Maud—how you
loved her, and how much you help
ed her whilo her miserable, drunk
en husband was alive! And, oh,
Frank, I misjudged you so cruelly!
I did not know she was your sis
ter!”
‘Of course you did not,’ be said,
tenderly, “ifas not your mistake
made us miserable for five long
years? Do not mention it again,
my darling!”
And he stopped her lips with a
kiss.

My soul mourns for tbee ns n grieving
child ;
I live again the hours that made our past,
Till with its memories my heart grows
wild.
Asa caged bird’s and cacli throb seems
its last.
One picture rises with intensest power,
When on thy breast at twilight’s gloomy
hour ;
I breathed farewell! as pilgrim at some
shrine—
Breathes liis last gasping prayer, oh,
love of mine !
Mine, by this deathless, longing—right
divine.
Come back ! Come back !
Much hast’ thou to forgive— hut canst thou
know,
What pangs this heart has suffered since
from thee
'This torn away ? the sad days ebb and
flow,
Have passed unnoted : what were life to
me
When reft of thee ? each word and look of
thine
In memory’s depths'undinirncd and s;ar
like shine.
Oh !if the days have left thee still un
changed—
If whispering tongues have not thy love
estranged—
Como back to me, whose heart has never
ranged.
Come back ! Come back !•

About forty miles from Green Bay,
on a highway blazed through the
woods, and no house within six miles
of the spot, a Boston pine land man
met a family in a one-horse wagon
with a ragged cover, and drawn by a
horse so thin that the grinding of hi<
limbs could be plainly heard
‘Stranger!’ called the immigrant,
‘are there any lightning-rod men in

‘Guess not.'
‘Any life insurance agents ?’
‘No.'
•Any sewing machine fellers?’
‘Haven’t seen any.’
‘Any temperance reforms, marriage

boss races, lawyers or doctors ?’
‘I think not. This is anew town'

settler yet.’
‘Then whoa, Lycurgus !’ called the
man as he drew rein. ‘This is the
place I’m looking fur! Unload the

to squat ! If this ain't next door to

\ .Keninrkitlilc Surgical
Operation.
The Paris Academy of Medicine was
yesterday informed by the operator
that the young man on whom the oper
ation was performed for the extraction
of a spoon from his stomach has com
pletely recovered from the effects of
hazardous operation, and is now enjoy
ing his usual health. Interesting
particulars are given of this operation,
which was performed by Dr. Feltzert.
By the use of the Faucher tube in
troduced through the mouth, the
stomach was cleansed prior to the
novel operation, which prevented the
risk of peritonitis. An incision was
made in the epigastric region. In or
der to render the coat of the stomach
easily accessible, M. Feltzert employed
the following contrivance : To the end
projecting from the man's mouth he
fitted a spherical vessel containing
ether. This he heated by submersion
in water of sixty degrees temperature.
The ether vapor rushing through the
tube filled the stomach, which becom
ing distended, was brought forward to
the wound effected by the operator’s
knife. The spoon was thus readily
found and extracted. It measured
over nine inches. It had been acci
dentally swallowed by the man, a wait
er at a cafe, in an attempt to imitate
the feats of a famous sword swallower.

The first gossip the world ever had
was the devil. And ns if out of honor
for this pioneer misihief maker. the
order has boen kept up most, as-idu
ou s ly. lie came to our first parents
with two tilings, a truth and a lie. both
nl which God had wisely kept from
them lie told them a truth that if
they ate of the tree should become as
Gods, knowing good and evil. lie
told them a lie, saying, ye shall not
surely die. It would be hard to tell
which had the greatest influence to
ward leading them into trouble the
truth or the lie; in fact, the one seems
to be as bad as the other.
There is one kind of gossip to-lay
that reminds me very much of tin
granger’s way of doing business. With
these people the article is brought di
rectly from the manufacturer to the
consumer. This was the devil’s plan
in his second statement to Eve. These
people manufacture their own stories
and bring them to you Their work
shop is their imagination; the only iir>
pleirent needed is a sharp tongue, the
mateiial upon which they work is the
reputation of a neighbor. T hese peo
ple have the kuack of keeping up a live
ly trade; the supply is always equal to
the demand, and human nature makes
a great demand in this direction, hence
the tulc-bcarcr keeps his manufactory
so busy and his stock so largo that
really giving doth not impoverish him
The gossip venders arc not at all exor
hWtuit in charges; the only pay they
ask is your appreciation, and some>
times they are willing to do a trust
business at tint.
Then there are gossipers who act the
part of rni'l llemen entirely. They take
about the Paine positions in the gossip
trade that the ordinary saioat)keepers
who enn buy a gallon and a half ot
bad whisky and sell from it a Darrel
of good. The persons who make a
business of repeating those things
which they knew to be false, are no
better than those who originated them.

One of the most senseless, and
vet a very common habit of the
American people, is the reining of
driving horses so tight as to inflict
upon them a great del of pain
under tho mistaken idea that it
adds lo the stylish appearance of
'the animal. When people see a
horse's bead drawn tip by the bear
ing rein, and see him stepping
short and champing (he bit, tossing
his head and rattling the harness,
they assume that ho is acti gin
1 1be pride of his strength and full
l ness of spirit, whereas the animal
lis really sufleting agonies of pain,
and is trying to gain by these
movements momentary relief. To
our view, a horse looks better, and
we know he feels bettor, when pur
suing a natural, leisurely, swing
ing gait. It is as necessary for
his head to oscilate in response to
the motions of bis body as it is lor
a man's hands to do the same thing
A horse allowed his head will work
easier and last longer than one on
which a check is used.
Blinds ere another popular ab
surdity in tho use of horses. They
collect dust, upon tho eye and are
in every way a nuisance. A horse
that cannot be driven with safety
without them should be sold to a
railroad grader. No colt should
be broken to them. |Ex.
