Ho was sitting in his study at home, later in the afternoon than usual. Nothing unimportant could have detained him so long fi-om his fac¬ tory, and, besides, there was a look of unusual solemnity on his face. Philip Breton had just j written his will. It was a very elaborate in¬ strument, prepared from memoranda of the ablest lawyer in the state. A moment ago he bad signed it, and the names of the witnesses were not dry yet. He had been uneasy for a long t ime that the destiny of the thousand creatures who worked in his mill, and of their successors forever, should hang on so feeble a thread as a human life, which might snap be¬ fore ho could give spontaneous energy to the plans that now only lived in his brain. Ho wrote in large, plain letter across the back of the paper, “The Last AVill and Testament of Philip Breton.” Then he read the whole in¬ strument over again—the magna oharta of Bretonville. How glad the village would be when his will came to be known—when it was found that the mill owner had not been satisfied with what he could do in his lifetime, but had placed his benevolence o:i a perpetual foot¬ ing, had reached back his hand from his grave to shower blessings on the laboring poor God had committed to his charge, borne men had wives and children to work for, to defend, to hope for. If he had been Happy, and blessed with love and kisses, ho might have been like the rest, never listening to the groans of his poor under burdens too heavy for them to bear. His heart would, perhaps, have been full of the little wants and trivial discomforts of his own circle, his mi: 1 busy with plans for the future of his sons, while a thousand dreary hopeless lives wore themselves out in tho struggle for then- scant bread, with never one pitiful thought from him. Philip Burton was relieved now that he had made his will. He folded it carefully and put it in his inner breast pocket. Per¬ haps, he thought sadly enough, if ho should die this moment it would be better for Bre¬ tonville, for iiis will might waver while ho lived. He might not be able to sustain his high tone, but once dead, nothing could be changed. The words that an idle stroke of his pen could make null and void when once his hand became rigid in death, would leap forth from the written page into potent everlasting life. Suddenly he remembered another occasion when, as ho had sat at this very table, lie had been interrupted by the servant bringing him a letter—no, it was a note from Bertha. And ho had been very happy, fancying the shadow had gone from his life. Ho just had opened this very table drawer when the maid had tapped at tho door. Ho had been searching for something at the time. Oh! it w r as one of Bertha’s pict¬ ures, and it must be hero still. In a moment more ho was unclasping a morocco ease, then gazing with such tenderness as one has for the dead on the delicately tinted oval of Ber¬ tha’s beautiful face in porcelain. Tho great blue eyes seemed to look surprise and ro proach at him. It had been long ago, beforo so much as a dream of sin had tainted tho holy innocence of her girlhood. Philip closed his lip8 very tightly; ho longed unutterably for her lost innocence; ho hungered so desperately for the maidenly purity that looked out; of these startled eyes. If she had died then, ho might at least have cherished her memory. What had he dona that he should be punished so terribly ? Then tho memories of the day when tho picture was taken came rushing back upon him. They two had been sitting in her garden on the afternoon of a summer day. It was two, three, almost four years ago, but ho could see the blooming roses and bear tho drowsy hum of the bees as if it had been yesterday. He had been reading a love poem to her; that was as near as lie dared come to love making; sometimes letting his voice soften and tremble a little over the tenderer passages, lie was but a timid lover, and Bertha so royally cold. Suddenly glancing at her, ho saw she was overcome with tho heat, and had fallen asleep leaning her shapely head back against the rough bark of tho tree. Her fingers loosely clasped in her sloping lap suggested perfect repose, the girlish bosom rose and fell with her still breathing, and there w-as an exqui¬ site pout on her lips, as if vaguely mutinous against the hardness of her pillow. His heart was beating violently as lio laid aside his book and seated himself on the bench by her side. But he dared not profane tire vestal purity of such sleep as hers; he devoured hey faco with his eyes, but did not steal one kiss from the red lips, though there was such a sweet, mute invitation on them. But he put his arm about her and drew her tow ard him as gently as if she were a sleeping infant, and made her head rest on his shoulder. Then ha looked down the red tinged cheeks, like the woods in autumn’s tenderest mood, swept by her long, golden eyelashes, and tried to fancy she was awake, though her eyes were closed, arid that she was willing her head should rest on his breast and her hair like fine threads of twisted Roman gold kiss his burning face. But slie moved in her slumber, and then her star like eyes opened and looked mut o astonishment into his eager face. For one startled moment she did not move, and in sudden boldness from the liberty he had al¬ ready taken he poured his passionate doclara- tks imm IIoi'KiNRvrhtE, Kv., Feb. 24,1887. ;. ik, r » vt-ar ; >.,o I commcncer! taking g ^ >. ■■*«,•; . £ . i i f%v«x(or':a "»tU bottles SwiiV* entirely Specific cared I 7‘., ,! v* ; 'i , I I begun began h«Hh, ’ and could . hardly ,,, )m.m Af f I I liutl hail finished finishe d thec the d»“*K t ... t. a c f r r and course ur r n«* strong I I,re-:*iM regard buoyant, it it and as as a a most most me l»r Cdi.’-i I.i weak,< ak, edit*hie ddl- r , 1 -h.

But suddenly j she affected to 1>“ stru'-k with an idea. “Oh, t know wny you ore not raw* talka¬ tive, you didn’t come to see me at all.” She step;-ad to the door “Susan, call Mi* Eilingsworth." "Miss!” Then there was no longer any room for doubt. Philip shrank at tho blow she gave him. He had thought all uncer¬ tainty was gone long ago, but he found that up to this very instant ho had cherished a spark of bo;s: that Bertha had a right to the name of the man she had fled with. And she was “Miss" still. Hia hostess way saying something, but he did not hear it, there was -uch a deathly faintness about his heart. Then there came a step/ In the hall, and his familiar thrill of tenderness at her coming. She lingered an instant on the threshold, an old habit of hers that gave him time to step forward and meet her. Mi-s. Eilingsworth had risen, too, and was waiting to speak. It was only tenderness in Philip Breton’s eyes as he took l/oth Bertha’s hands so gently, but she said: “Am 1 very much changed, then T’ and a pained look flitted across her face. Philip did not answer her for a moment, he was so distressed at her interpretation of the lovo that made his sight misty as he gazed nt her. “Well, I sup;>ose I am in the way,” re¬ marked the mistress of the house, with in- bred vulgarity. She was smiling sweetly, but women’s smiles do not always signify amiability. “I suppose,” sho added, letting her skirts touch her two guests ns she passed out, “you want to talk over old times with Miss Eilingsworth.” Now came tho last terrible assurance; Philip winced at the heartless blow, but not so much as a flush passed over Bertha’s cold face. She accepted the name without even a shade of silent denial on her calm features, though it was the badge of shamo for her. “Oh, no,” but he dared not look her in tho face for fear sho should see his anxious pity for her. “You have been ill, perhaps, but I always thought you tho loveliest woman in the world.” She smiled os sho let him lead her toa sent. “You always aiid that.” Then she glanced sadly into the mirror. “But it is piore pleus- ant to hear now, for 1 know I am not pretty any longer." Could she understand that the change that had come over her radiant beauty only changed his lovo to make it deeper? Could she not see the new intensity of yearning in his eyes as he raised them to her face again! He hmged to draw her into his arms and kiss her tired face into eternal smiles. His love ha.l been refined into a new divinencss; ulove capable of ^ill sacrifices for her; that asked no price, but would pour itself in an eternal flood against her dull indifference, if It must be; a love more pain than joy, of unutterable yearnings for what he believed sho ceuld never have for him; that would seem to grow on her unresponsiveness; that welled up the mightier for her coldness, content if liercaf- ter it might throw a little brightness on the path her snowy feet should tread; content if she would but let him warm her cold heart with his tenderness. “Are you glad to be at home?” he asked, gently. “Do you call this home, with my servant its mistress?” For a moment it was Bertha, as she used to be, her anger curling her red lips and flashing new fire into her tired eyes. “Does she insult you?” “It is insult enough that sho is my father’s wife. She can not go beyond that.” “Shall you stay here alway?” asked Philip stupidly enough. “I suppose so; where else is there?" A wild impulse touched him; he loved her and she needed love, had he not waited long enough? But a sudden fear camo into his mind and chilled his hope like a frozen foun¬ tain. She might have a chiliL-how strango he had never thought of it before. Ah, it would bo a strong lovo which could endure that, a baby to hang on her bosom and tako her kisses, a baby with Curran’s face. No, he could never bear that, anything better than that. Her sin ho could forgive. Though it must linger forever in his memory, ha would bury it beneath more blessed expe¬ riences. His love should hallow her, ho would kiss away Curran's caresses from her lips. But if there were a child- Philip started violently and looked at tho door; he fancied he heard a sound like tho pattering of infant feet. In a moment Bertha would catch to her arms her child and Cur¬ ran’s, and half smother it with a mother's kisses. “Isn’t that a child’s voice?” he cried, rising to his feet and his eyes rested on her in a new pitiful reproach. He thought she started strangely, as if a mother’s instincts stirred in her bosom. “Oh, no; it is only Jane—I mean Mrs. Eilingsworth. What an innocent little laugh she has.” A child, with sweet winning ways, is a strange thing to hate, a lovely little rose¬ bud to blossom no one knows how faultlessly by and by. But Philip thought he would bate her child—Bertha’s child, perhaps with his darling’s star like eyes; ah, was it not Curran’s, too, the symbol of her shame? As he walked home in tho twilight he saw in each toddling baby in tho doorways and windows, an image of his own materialized fear and horror. Philip looked back from tho hill on which stood his home to the vil¬ lage his father bad built up. Those massive mills with their thousands of looms were his; those long rows of white houses, each one of which held a family rich in possibilities of virtue and hope, they all were his, and tho new element of brightness and thrif, that had made the whole village a nursery of comfort and happiness was his work Behind him was tho great stone mansion with i:s »r :hcd gothic windows green with clustering /. red- bine, it was his too. How power! ><« he thought all that wealth and material power can do to solve one of the terrible ;e->' !«ms a heart makes for itself. . Moodily ho walked to his stables, in a kind of vague longing for companionship, and threw open the doors. Four horses Hood in their stalls within; noble looking . .res nil of them. They turned their stalely 1. ulJ toward the sound of their master’s feel: i hey returned his love with love. One of iLem whinnied welcome and laid back bis ears as his master ; ame into the stall beside him. “Poor Allow, good boy;” Philip patted his white n. k affectionately. “You would do what you c ould for me, wouldn’t you, Joe? I know you would, old fellow.” He laid his f: k&ftl 7'* 1 ! Sw 4c Sa§// ^* An image of hi* oi« n materialized fear. cheek against the animal's velvet flew.

Mr. Vanderbilt's Scotch Piper. from A depressing intimation comes to us over the ocean that Scotch pipers will soon to the rage with fashionable New York society. If such is the case, the rage will extend generally through¬ out the community, and very few pipers will escape it alive. Mr. W. K. Vander¬ bilt has employed a family piper, and it is predicted that the example thus set will be followed by many. Fuel will bo added to tho fire for pipers when tho wealthy Anglomaniacs discover, what most people have known for a long time, that tho Prince of Wales has at least one piper, and perhaps more. As a curiosity, a Scotch piper may bo for a short time tolerated in the haunts of civilization. But ho belongs to the mountain and the moor and the past, and leaves them, if he comes to this country, at his peril.— New York World. The State House Dome.
