ROCKING THE BABY.
I hear her rocking the baby—
Her room is just next to mine—
And I fane/ I leel the dimpled arms
That round her neck entwine.
As she rocks and rocks the baby.
In the room just next to mine.
I hear her rocking the baby
Each day when the twilight comes,
Audi know there's a world of blessing and
love
In the “baby by ” she bums.
1 see the restless fingers
Playing with “mamma's r ngs,"
And the sweet little smiling, pouting mouth,
That to hers in kiss.ng clings.
As she rocks and sings to the baby.
And dreams as she rocks and s.ngs.
I hear her rocking the baby,
Slow r er and slower now,
Ad 1 know she is leaving her good-night kiss
On its eyes, and cheek, and brow.
Trom her rocking, rocking, rocking,
i wonder would she start,
Could she know, through tlie wall between us.
She is rocking on a heart.
While inv empty arms arc uching
For a form they may not press.
And my emptier heart is breaking
In its desolate loneliness,
I list to the rocking, rocking.
In the room just next lo mine,
And breathe a prayer iu silence.
At u mother’s broken shrine,
For the woman who rocks the baby
In the room just next to mine.
—Madye Morris, in Golden Era.
FACE TO FACE.
A Fact Related In Seven Well-
Told Fables.
BY R. K. FRANC IL LON,
Author or “A Great Heiress,” “Quit*
At Last,” “A Real Queen,” “ Elahl’s
Dive,” etc., Era
FABLE THE SEVENTH.— CoNCr.unF.n.
“Now, sir,” said Enoch; “’tis nigh
noon.”
But tho b ide, with her face from the
aitar, and and not turn.
“Now, nrss,” sai l the clerk, touch
ing her—for her father was beginning
to look wild “parson’s waiting. Say
‘i w 11.’ ”
“I can not,” she whispe ed to he •
father. “I must not. Stephen is alive.”
Enoch heard her wouls, and glared
round, Lut could see nothing. “She
must be going mad!” sai l he.
The parson cioufcd Ids book, and
looked at Patience. "If—if so—l c-m
not jjo on.” he sad, searching for his
presence of mind. “We had better go
into the ve-try—we had, indeed. Very
sad—very strange. I never knew such
a thing; never, in all my days.”
But for t.ue lovers to be face to face
is as good as being heait to heart, un
less they are blind. Neither understood
wi'h reason; but re. son is a poor cheat,
at best, and tb'-re is something better
than understanding. lie followed; for
who had a heller right than he? She
was not Patience Marrish yet: and, till
then, she was h s by a law higher than
law. And then, its he entered the ves
try, Enoch saw that Patience had not
gone ma l; that tlie dead was alive.
And Patience would never have urned
her head before answering “1 will” but
for that accursed ring.
“Filth" r—Enoch— ’ said she, hur
rie lly, but without moving a step near
er her lover. “I thought he was dead
he is alive. I am his 111 he bids me
li ave him; whatever happens, 1 can be
no i tiier man’s.”
“Patience!” cried Stephen; And at
his volte her lips parted, ami her heart
cried through them; “Patience—you
are true, iu your soul? Never miml
any hing else; anyth‘ng that seems.
All that w 11 keep; are you true to me,
as I am to you?”
“Oh—?”
“Then come to me, my wife, for I
am come home.”
“Aid I!”
Then she came to him, and their
hands clasped: it was Patience; it was
Stephen. Hand in hand, they could
walk out of a worse wilderness of lies
than even an Enoch Marrish could
weave.
Enoch was in a storm. But he count
ed six-and-thirty: then turned to Tom
Blackthorn, and said:.
“Have that blackguard soldier turned
out oif the door.”
“It is Stephen, father!” said Patience,
bursting at last into tears. “Stephen
come h me! Ah, I knew be would
come—if be were alive; and see!”
Old Tom shook his head. He bad
fo gothm a good deal of late. “Ah,
that solder I met in the meadow; a
Talaveia man; only he wouldn't come
home to dinner. My daughter seems
to know you, sir—”
Stephen looked at Path nee, full of
wonder and pity; and then at Marrish,
full of wrath and scorn. He understood
HOW. a
“Mr. Marrish,” sa : d he, “I am the
man whom yous light to destroy by a
lie. I am now iu charge ot this girl
and this old man. You are too old and
too - too much yourself to punish. Be
off with you, and leave my own to me.”
If ever a despera e and baffled villain
looked bis full hate, it was En ch Mar
rish tin n. Nothing was left him but to
turn, like a snake under a strong heel.
“Perhaps,” said le, “you think
yourself very noble and grand to come
home a beggar and bully a girl into
sending her own father into th • streets
for a common tramping sold er. Per
haps you will pay me that throe hundred
pound.”
For (hi re is one passion even stronger
than such love as Enoch Marrish could
feel; and that is revenge.
“My lather owe you three hundred
pound?’ said anew intruder, in the
voice that had brought about all th s
to-do. “Then here you are!” And a
young gentleman dessed in the very
height of the fashion yet looking un
born thereto, throw down u|K>n the
table a bundle of bank notes big enough
to daaale the eyes even of revenge.
“There; pick ’em up, Marrish. They’re
Bank of England, every one. I've seen
and heard enough to guess how tilings
lie. Patienc : haven’t you got one eye
for me? Father— l'm come home, too;
I may, now; I couldn’t as a Black
thorn, w.ien it looked as if it was for
the fatted calf—could I* jea knowP
Father, don’t you know Dick? To
think t\l tind him like this!’’ he cried.
“ Patience, what levs eorue to him?
Don’t he know rue? Father, look here.
Is it because you can’t understand Dick
turning up like a gentleman, with li.a
pockets 1 netl with these?”
Tom Blackthorn only looke 1 at him
vacantly. ‘Til smoke a pipe,” said he.
“I’ve been a soldier,' said Dick,
de-pcrately. “lu Spain. Spain, do you
see? And when l discharged myself 1
was that hard up I didn’t know which
way to turn; and there wa; nothing

Then 1 thought of grandfather in
Thames strait, father; 1 thought he
might make me a clerk; and if not,
give me a guinea to be rid of me—”
“Ah—Thames street, sir. I know;
a skinllint; the most infernal old—”
“Hu-h! Poor old boy—lie's been in
the grave these two years: and without
a will. Patience, you and I have got
to divide eighty thousand pmnds. The
la wyes had l>een looking for next oi
kin high and 1 >w —”
“My wife’s father died—two years
ago?” asked old Tom, slowly. “Mar
rish saw him iu les* time than that
time, sir. You’re very kind. I dare say.
But it can’t be—it can’t be.”
Dick groaned. For he, also, had had
1 is visions of coming home w ith a glori
ous surprise.
But the mind of old Tom, though at
its latest gasp, was laboring. The
ft. anic of having bogged of his father
in-law. and begged in vain, was the dis
grace of lis life; and even if all other
memory went, that would remain. He
looke l at Marrish with such gentle up
brai' ing, as of a man who, even when
ho had i eas< and to be himself, can not
comprehend a cheat, that the other was
forced to hang his head, as of one who
is at li st brought fa e to face with con
science—not that conscience had much
to do with Enoch, who, all because he
h and dropped a liitle gold ring, was los
ing the wSman he loved, aud forty
thousand pounds besides.
It was < ruclly hard. There was the
cost of that first journey to Loudon,
when lie found that Patience had be

so e slyan i so well. There was the
marvel us stroke of good fortune that
had removed his rival out of his way.
But there is no re and to repeat this story
through and through. For over and
aba e it all, over even the half of eighty
thousand pounds, he was balked even
of r \ enge. And over and above even
tliat, f such could b.*, the rival whom

unhapoy lies. And therein lay the
tragedy of Kn.-ch Marrish, the unhappy
man. And now his last chance was
gone. And, since a fable without a

with s> me une pressed thought of

If you would he good, be happy; if

That is worth thinking over, be the
rest of the story w. at it may.
“Father,” whispered Tatience in old
Tom Blackthorn’s ear.
Her voice had new life in it. soft and
low as it fell upon that struggling
brain.
“No, 1 say. There’s no Dick. /

he’d only had t e spirit t > and e for hig

him then. But now, never let me hear
his name. Oh, Dick—my bov—my
boy!”
“Father!”
And his father ran, and fell on his
neck, and kissed him. And, in rain of
tears, the cl >ud that had fallen over
him melted away.
But who shall say how Stephen* ard
Patience met when there were no eyes
but their own to see how? They h and
much to tell; hut it was soon told—for
the first time at !e ist, since it wanlo 1
over i.n l over again. But there
was no need to tell the story for a hun
dred times n order to know that si e
had yielded on y to death and duty, and
that he—veil, he had beeu-guilty once
of loss of faith, which she never had
been. The woman came out the w in
ner in that; as she lias a way of win
ning. taking her all round.
“My darling! What could I think
when I saw you in cluuch, and T will’
about to come?”
That was all his defence; but it was
strong.
“Dearest, you should have disbel eved
your own eyes, as I wou and have disbe
lieved mine!” answered she. It was
all her reply, but it was stronger still.
“And have been too late.’ said he.
“Oh, Pa'.ience, I feel as if I had fallep
over a precip eo, and been saved by a
hair!”
“And have let me be married to

Dick had not iouud you; if he had not
noticed the ring you wore; if you had
not thrown it away; if—if he had not
found it—oh, Stephen, think how it
wou and all have teen. You would have
come back, and—dearest, dearest; I
have you now; but it has wanted all
this to do what one little bit of tru-st
would have done a thousand times bet
ter by far! Stephen, never, never doubt
me again. Whatever you think, come
to me at once a id ask me, just as 1 will
come to you.”
“Darling—l will.”
They could not bring themselves to
speak of Enoch Marri h. That was left
to ti e parish, who assuredly found ple.i
ty to say, and everything all wrong.
But, r'ghtor wrong, he found or thought
it needful to silence unprofitable gossip
m the most telling wav. He married.
She was the sister of aflunchester jew
eller, who had enough fortune to recoup
him for his expenses in attempting to
win Patience Harlow and forty thousand
pounds. And such a life she led him,
and so she made his money fly, that if
poetic justice ever prevailed gloriously
k was over Euock Marrish, and no
other man.
I’hat, however, belongs to a later
time, when Stephen Harlow, who was
not the man to live ou his wife s fort
une, was beginning to make another of
his own, and when Tom Blackthorn,
confused only as to the part his boy had
taken in dr.ving the French out of
Spain, was growing younger with the
years. The only time with which we
have to do is the latter part of that
eventful day when right prevailed over
wrong, thauks to a plain gold ring with
a posy that had done it, after all- that,
and a dint as of the stroke of steel, such
as wedding-rings seldom bear.
“And it wasn’t the ring quite, though,
after all,” said Dick that evening, as
Stephen sat holding the hand of Pa
tience, so long lost, and he (Dick) was
holding old Tom’s. “Fancy all this
having come from an artful, treacher
ous. spying cat—”
“A cat'. l ’ asked Patience.
“Yes; commonly called a woman; a
creatuie at the bottom of all mischief
since the days of Adam; except when
it’s a horse; and then it’s ten to one the
horse is a nitre.”
“Dick,” said Stephen, “if you hadn’t
saved more than my life. I’d—”
“Make me a surveyor’s clerk? Thank
you—not for me. I’m a farmer now.
And then, there’s a woman—”
“Another woman, still? Oh, Dick!
After all!”
“Not exactly a woman. She happens
to be an angel, this time—and that
makes a difference, you see. lu fact, I
met her in London, when I was about
that legacy —not that she knew of tba‘;
I know the sex, and 1 wasn’t going to
be bought an l sold again; and she
mightn't have been the angel aud the
lady I know her to be now.”
“And this lady?” asked Stephen,
doubtfully.
“This angel?” asked Patience, with a
smile.
“Is my wife,” said Dick, defiantly.
“And the beat wife in the world—bar
none.”
“Till I have mine,” said Stephen.
And so he thought even until—

BTORY OF A RING.
How a French OUlcer was Restored to Life
mi l tUcf.tines*.
Many stories have been related of the
recognition of persons by' a ring. The
following instance has been recorded by
De Thou and other French historians.
In 1562 llouen was besieged by the
Protestants, and the Governor of the
city, Montgomery, having ob-erved the
dauntless bravery of an officer under
his command, Francois de Civille, in
trusted him with the defense of a forti
fied gate. Wh le thus engaged he was
shot tarougli the head by an ar ue
buiser and rendered in-ensible. Fall
ing from the rampart and considered
dead, he was thrown into a ditch, and
some earth was lightly thrown over
him. He lay thus f.om ten in the
mo ning until six in the evening,
llis faithful servant, named Barre, hear
ing of the sad fate of his master, ob
tained permission to sear h for the
body and h,v it buffed. All his care
seemed fruitless, for five body was dis-
I gured and covered with mud. He was
about to return disconsolate, when he
observed, by the light of the moon,
something shindig br lliantly, and,
stooping down, he found it proceeded
from a diamond which his master wore
in a ring. On touching the linger he
fancied there was some warmth in it.
and he eon eyed the body tenderly to
the garrison, where the body was ex
amined and pronounced lifeless. The
servant, howe'er, was not satisfied with
this ( pinion,and remained watching h s
master until, after four days of insensi
bility, Civille re adied 1 is senses and
was restored to consciousness. This re
markable m an. who was born in 1537
and died in 1614, wa the hero of num
berless adventures and efftical escapes.
D’Aubigne, the historian, relates: “1
saw him at the National Assemblies, a
Deputy from Normandy, forty-two
years after his wound, and I observed
that when he signed our depositions he
always added: ‘Francois de Civille,
three times dead, three times buried,
aud three times, by God’s grace,
restored to life.’ ” —All the Year Round.
HUNTING SCRUBBERS.
The Capture of Wild Cattle on the Cluing
of Au-traJla.
Extending for many miles backward
from the banks of the Barwon and the
Darling are va>t scrubs, in which a few
years ago were situate 1 the haunts of
thousands of wild cattle or “scrubbers.”
When the country iu that dTection was
first settled old cattle strayed away into
the bush. In course of timo these bred,
and were continually being joined by
other strays, till at length the settlers
fouad it well worth their while to have
Boriodical gatherings and brandings.
y daylight it would have been hope
less to attempt to get stock out of the
dense sei üb, in some parts of which the
sun hardly ever shone, and through
which neither man nor horse could
penetrate. The only way, then, was to
watch by moonlight until the cat le
came out of the forest, as they were in
the lmblt of doing every night to feed
in the open couutry; tuen, having
ready a mob of tame cattle or “coach
es,” rush between the “scrubbers’’ and
their retreat, and once “boxed” or
mixed up with the “coaches” there was
never much difficulty iu taking the lot
to the stock-yard. It was a game that
required the most fearless riding, with
plenty of pluck, aud the best horse esh
obtainable. In those davs, and even
now in some p. ris, to hold the reputa
tion of being a first- lass scrub rider is
still the summit tf the nati\e-born Aus
traliau stockman’s ambition. But as
fencing ine. eases, moonlig. ting is al
most. except in the far-out scr. bs of
the * Never-never” country, abandoned,
rn -st of the w Id ea tie having be n got
in as settlement extended year by jear.

HOT COUNTRIES.
The Experience of Those Who Have Trav
eled In Torrid Climates.
A correspondent who has had a quar
ter of a century’s experience in travel
ing in hot countries writes to the Lon
don Globe: “A man should always try
to do as long as ever he can in the early
part of the day without drinking; if onee
he tastes water he becomes thirsty again
in half-an hour. I have often ridden
hard, under a blazing sun, in clouds of
dust, from daylight uutil eleven o’clock,
but. once te opted to take a drink, have
not been able to abstain for an hour at
a time. Never fear to give your horse
a drink whenever vou can get it, A
few go-downs of water will aot upon a
tired horse Ike a stimulant on a tired
man, and put new li e in him. Never,
if you possibly can help it. work horses
long after dark in hot weather-they
will go well and gayly for an hour after
sundown, and then tlag terribly. When
you take your saddle off, wash your
horse’s back with cold water, if you are
lucky euough to have any to spare.
Austra’ian bn-hmen think more of pro
tecting the backs of their necks than
their heads from the direct rajs of the
sun, and are fond of wearing a large
white handkerchief, folded three corner
wise, well up rouud their necks. The
rays of the*sun, striking on the nape of
the neck of a stooping man, are verv
sickening in their effect. The learns of
the setting sun are particularly and sa
greeable, and to be avoided.”

A CFUTAIN C'l’BF for Catahkh.
Trim he, Tknx., Feb. 28, 1887.
Gentlemen —For seven years I have
had catarrh, Three years of that time I
was unable to work. Unfortunately,
early in my affliction my breath became
very offensive. For seven years I could
smell nothing, and I had no taste. How
offensive my breath was all those seven
years. I act'd not tell. What were my
sufferings of mind at not being able to
taste or smell anything, can be easily
imagined. 1 was treated by physicians
*all during that time, and 1 tried numer
ous medicines advertised. I bought one
course of treatment I saw advertised for
sl6 that was not worth five cents. Last
spring a year ago a pamphlet from the
Swift Specific Company came under my
notice, and I determined to try the Spe
cific. Fourteen small bottles completely
cured me that spring and summer.
Worked in the crop for the first time in
four years, and I have been working
right along since without having the
slightest return of catarrh. The won
derful cure of me has been the means of
bringing S„ S. S. to the successful notice
of many neighbors. 1 regard it as a
wonderful blood purifier, and a certain
cure of catarrh when given a fair trial.
Yours truly, Sam. A. Coles.

WHAT
AILS
YOU?
Do you feel dull, languid, low-spirited, life
less, and indescribably miserable, both physi
cally and mentally; experience a sense of
fullness or bloating after eating, or of “gone
ness,” or emptiness of stomach in the morn
ing, tongue coated, bitter or bad taste in
mouth, irregular appetite, dizziness, frequent
headaches, blurred eyesight, “floating specks”
before the eyes, nervous prostration or ex
haustion, irritability of temper, hot flushes,
alternating with chilly sensations, sharp,
biting, transient pains here and there, cold
feet, drowsiness after meals, wakefulness, or
disturbed and unrefreshing sleep, constant,
indescribable feeling of dread, or of impend
ing calamity?
If you have all, or any considerable number
of these symptoms, you are suffering from
that most common of American maladies—
Bilious Dyspepsia, or Torpid Liver, associated
with Dyspepsia, or Indigestion. The more
complicated your disease has become, the
greater the number and diversity of symp
toms. No matter what stage it has readied.
