Who Jliiitf in their live* for duty—it happened
—yon ask me when ?
On a wonderful anmmcr'a evening, juxt a» hol¬

It had for it« scene old Cornwall—its hero a
Coafitguardman!
A puny nf “trippern" had ventured to visit
the rocks and caves,
Where the sea birds find tlieir houses, and ig¬
norant folks tlieir graves;
You may M arch for wild adventure on the sra
coast south and north
But for Is nntv, travel by Truro to (l.o village
of Perranporth.
It was there on this summer evening, on the
beach as the daylight died,
That a wandering, thoughtless follow was
caught at the turu of the tide;
Up Came the soa and trapped him, cutting the
ground from his feet;
He rushed, but he couldn’t go onward—then
hack, there was no retreat!
Up rame the eea still closer— was it death ?
Not a second to count—
fieri setting his teeth at the danger, to the
cliffs lie began to mount.
Tearing the tmf and the grasses, and scoring
the sea birds’ nest,
dinging with feet and fingers, and bruising
his arms and hi east,
At last with a desperate si niggle he lifted his
life to a stone,
Where lie held with a cry for a second, sus
p< nded in air, alone !
Once more death barred his passage; ami his
terrified face turned gray,
for the. ledge of tlio |oek lie clung to yes
ennobling akswly away!
“Where is the niati for a rescue T so tho err
of agony ran.
“I am that man, Ood willing!" said Regan,
the Coastguardiuan !
Then followed a terrible silence, a horror that
might he felt,
For the village was emptied of women, who
muttered their prayers and knelt;
They could see the eyes of the shivering man,
with the agonized face turned gray,
As stone after stone from liiu safety-ledge kept
(lowly crumbling away!
“JJiiug me a rope !” raid Regan, “and bind it
about my waist;
IiOok at that wrplfthed fellow! In a second

Keep the cord tight in your hands, males

How, wail till I give the signal! Then haul me

Why do you stand there staring? I’ll save him,

If I die, I hnve done my duty !” said Began.

at once graceful and easy. He

And, catching a glimpse of himself in
an opposite mirror, Mr. Castieton gave
jjj g ghjrt-ccdiftr a little twntmi, and pro
needed:

getting deuced low. T can’t play the
confidence game much longer; yeti
think Gold & Co. will trust me, if I just
whisper a word or two about ray expec
tations. I’ll make the experiment at all
events !’’
At this stage of matters, Mr. Castleton
tossed his cigar out of of the window, and
took up a tiny tray cards and notes,
which had all this time been standing
unheeded at his elbow, so rapt was he in
Elysian dreams. Some were perfumed
billets-doux, some cards of invitation
and some—his face grew very black over
these—were threatening bills, and dun
iiing letters confounded from indignant tradesmen.
“This tailor’s bill, acrain!”
growled Mr. Castleton, savagelv. “He’D
put in an execution, he says. Will he ?
May he find something worth his trouble
—there’s nothing here belonging to me
I’m very sure. That scamp of a boot
maker ! ‘Long account’—‘heavy amount’
—‘wife and children.’ Why are such
plebian wretches allowed to bother their
betters?”
And Fitzroy fiercely tore the pitiful
note into tatters. At this instant a
knock was heard at the door.
“Who’s there?” cried Fitzroy, pet
tishly. ‘
“It’s only me, sir,” said one of the
servants of the hotel. “There’s a woman
here insists on speaking to you, sir i”
“A woman?”
“Yes, sir—she her won’t take‘no’ for an
answer. I told you were engaged.
but she says she won’t detain you J i i
minute.”
“Who can it bo?” mused the seif
worshiper. “Well, show her in, Jen¬
kins.”
The next moment a poor, thin,
shadowy creature glided in, clad in mis¬
erably darned and insufficient garments,
ancLt lisplaying the ghastly on every stamp feature of of her
wan face poverty
and iflncM. A dark expression of anger
shot over Mr. Castleton’s brow as bo rec¬
ognized Her.
“What arc you here for again, woman?"
ho exclaimed. “I can’t attend to your
paltry affairs !”
“Mr. Castleton,” she said earnestly,
“I implore of you to settle this bill. It
is tho fourth time I have called about
it. I worked six weeks for yon, em¬
broidering and making up linen, and at
your request selected and purchased the
materials myself, when I could ill afford
to advance the money. Mr. Castleton,
is it right to defraud the poor of their
hard-earned support ?”
It was a part of Mr. Castleton’s pro
foasion, but the jioor widow did not know
that.
“Leave the room, you audacious beg¬
gar !” he sternly exclaimed.
“1 am—starving—my babes are crying
for bread ! Oh, for the love of all that
j H human, pay me but a trifle of what

“Tliere is no proof that I owe von a

then of years so tender as to scarcely
realize that she was changing one home

oare 0 f an adopted father in the place of
the mother’s love of winch death had
deprived her. The friends of his pa
ren ts took charge of the boy Richard
an( j gave him a home. He scarcely
knew that he had a sister, or the neces
sity w fii c h had torn her from his arms
and decreed that their homes should be
different. As Richard grew up he be¬
came a handsome, intelligent boy, and
made remarkable progress in his studies,
Q n leaving school he manifested his
competency to take a position of trust
among the business men of his vicinity,
Legs than ten days ago the charitable
Chester county doctor came to At
| an tic City and stopped at the Chester
County House with his adopted daugh
ter, Clara Orton, a pretty, dark-eyed
and dark-haired maiden of eighteen.
Last Saturday altemoon, as the young
j ad y wae strolling on the beach, her eye
lighted casually hair and on a youth rather of graceful twenty,
w i lose eyes,

smoo th,' dark complexion, made him a

u e r, and as says, some
ipHcnistible impulse, the the strangers spoke

They conversed without hesitation, each
trying to read in the other’s eyes the
oaVstery of their mutual attraction,
Richard asked the young lady if he
m ight said come and adding, call on “I her that evening;
She yes, am staying at
the Chester Cofmty House.”
in turn Richard said, “I
BU]l * p O80 j ought to tell you that my
ua me is Eicbard Orton.”
“Why,” said she, “that is my name,
j 0O J « How very strange. Where is
home?” And the story of their
ear jy years leaked out little by little;
t ,, ( -v knew they must be sister ahd
i, vo ther and the scale of ignorance ami
fifteen years absence fell from their
eyes. ’ That evening the strange story of the
two young people was told to Mrs. May,
the proprietress of the Germantown
House, jvho had known their father and
mother in Germantown. Richard had
intended home the ’
to go on narrow

morning he and his sister went to Phila¬
