SINGING ITSELF.
I Asked a wee maid with winsome way
How she sang her songs through the livelong
day,
e they woodland echoes that come at call?
Art? they fairy footsteps that 'round you fall?
"lid you borrow or steal each happy note
Prom some feathered songster's bursting
throat ?
Ho you make them out of the flowerets gay?
Or weave in the Stinbeam's golden ray?
‘Oh, I cannot tell.” said the merry elf,'
“I cannot help it, it sings itself."
There's a song in my heart whose gay notes ring
Louder than woodland songsters sing,
‘rander than those which have found a tongue.
Sweeter than any my lips have sung,
brighter than sunbeams or flowerets gay.
This song that sings through tile livelong day.
It never ceases, through storms or ill
Of one sweet joy will it carol still.
I will borrow your phrase, my merry elf,
For this song in my heart that sings itself.

EVA’S LESSON.
I
There were indications of a domestic
storm brewing as Richard Hayes entered
his house at 7 o’clock one fine evening in
June; his little 3-year-old Mary ran
eagerly to meet him, and baby Harry
Stretched out his dimpled hands and
prattled a glad welcome, but bis wife’s
face showed that no pleasant grueling
awaited him from her.
“So you have condescended to put in
an appearance at last!” she said angrily.
I concluded you intended to stay all night
watching that silly baseball game and
guzzling beer.”
Richard's face flushed painfully at the
last taunt, so wholly undeserved. Al
though harsh words were becoming of
almost daily occurrence in his once
happy home, he felt them most keenly
now, as they were uttered in the presence
of an intimate friend, who had never be
fore seen these too frequent outbursts of
anger.
“Well, come to supper,” Eva said un
graciously: “you have kept us waiting
m hour, and I’ve no doubt Clarice; is
half starved.”
Clarice protested pleasantly, and Rich
ard made courteous excuses for his de
lay, hut Eva was too angry and impa
tient to heed them. Her sharp words
and unkind reproaches marred all the
pleasure there might have been at her
neatly spread supper table.
At the earliest moment Richard es
caped from the unpleasant home atmos
phere and took his little ones out for «i
walk.
To Clarice the whole scene had been
painful. Slight indications of growing
unhappiness between her friend ‘and her
husband had been betrayed before, hut
nothing like this. Audit had been such
a pleasant home. She remembered how
proud Eva had been of her handsome,
even tempered husband, how devotedly
she had seemed to love him in those early
days. She recalled the tender confidences
Eva had poured into her ears of his
patience, his constant kindness and gen
erous devotion; but now, in her impa
tience and ill temper, everything was
wrong petty faults and foibles, that
would have passed unnoticed in the old
.lavs, were dwelt upon harshly and mag
nified into serious defects.
A merry, thoughtless girl, fond of
society and gay pleasures, Eva had taken
upon herself the duties of wife and
mother without a thought of how weary
the burden might prove to be.
For two or three years she bore thqjn
remarkably well; she was very proud of
her handsome husband, her pleasant home
and her bright, sprightly little girl, whom
every one admired and petted. But with
tin* coming of the second child her cares
increased, the household duties became
heavier, and her confinement to home
closer. She never realized how largely
t he nervous irritation, which made her so
cross and fault finding, was caused by
these things.
Confuted to her close, warm rooms day
after day. with rarely any other society
than her little ones, wlio-shared her irri-
tabilitv. the troubles had increased
■ rapidly.
From an occasional impatient word, it
lhad grown to shsrn. angry reproaches
• and constant fault finding, until Richard
. was lieginning to seek pleasure in the
' societ v of friends outside, only to lie met
..with still harsher words each time on his
{'return. Thoughtless and ignorant of the
laws of health, it never occurred to either
t hut a ride or a walk each day. a few
, hours in the .open air. would do more to
cure all this trouble than would either
: - ermons or good resolutions.
The day of Clarice's visit everything
had gone wrong. It had been very "aim.
ind Eva had spent many hours in her
dose, hot kitchen, over the ironing and
baking, while May. mischievous little
iiiss. had been unusually trouble some,
scarcelv out of one piece of mischief he-
- fore she was into another, keeping the
babe in constant fretfulness by her teas
ing." until Eva's patience was exhausted,
without the additional vexation of having
^ j^r husband take advantage of a half
holiday to attend a baseball game, and
delay bis return beyond the usual hour.
‘•Oh. if girls only knew when they
were well off. they would never marry,”
:she said bitterly, as she seated

iqck at that
the road this
moment only in her dancing, then whirl
ing on her foot cast a saucy, defiant
glance at her father.
“May. do you hear me?” he said stern
ly. “Come over here!” And dropping
the handles of the baby carriage lie
started rapidly toward her. May stood
still for an instant, kicking the earth
with her tiny shoes, then started to obey.
At that moment there was a rattle of
wheels, the quick tramp of a horse’s feet,
and before the child had passed half the
distance to the walk a horse attached to
an empty, broken carriage came rapidly
around the corner not a dozen rods from
her. The whiffletree of the broken car
riage dashed against the horse's heels at
every jump, and Half maddened with
fright, he was tearing down the street at
a furious pace. To spring into the road
and catch May in his arms was the Avork
of an instant: but the horse mils close
upon them, and with a shout Richard
threAv up his arms almost in its face,
thinking it would naturally turn to the
right, hut, on the contrary, the animal in
its mad terror swerved to the left and
struck Richard with full force. In an
instant the iron hoofs and heavy vehicle
had passed over liis prostrate body, and
at the next bound the Avheels struck the
baby carriage, leaving it Avrecked about
the helpless little form. It Avas all over
in a moment, the frightened horse Avas
dashing madly down the street, and the
three lxxlies lay apparently lifeless in the
road.
So suddenly had it all happened that
Clarice and Eva had stood as if paralyzed
Avith horror, then with a quick cry Eva
was out of the house and doAvn the steps.
Reaching the Avrecked baby carriage she
lifted her child from amid the debris.
There M as a cruel ga-sh at the l>ack of the
head, from wluch the blood was flowing
freely, while the fair hair, the sAveet face
and dainty white garments Avere stained
Avith the crimson tide.
The beautiful blue eyes met hers in a
dull, glassy stare, there was a quiver of
the blue veined lids, a quick gasp, and a
little form lay limp and liteless in her
arms.
A crowd had rapidly collected and
Richard and May Avere carefully lifted
and borne into the house, Avliile Eva.
like one bereft of her senses, silently and
mechanically followed, holding the life
less form of her babe pressed closely to
her breast.
In the middle of the pleasant parlor slio
paused and looked Avith a wild, horror
stricken countenance from the pallid,
blood stained face upon her breast to the
unconscious forms of h^r husband :uid
child upon the sofa. Clarice came to-
Avard her. passed her arm about her, and
tried to lead her to a seat. Slowly Eva
turned toward her; then as she beeuied
to recognize the friendly, sympathetic
face, die cried out in tones of heartrend
ing agony: “Oh, Clarice, Clarice! I
have murdered them! I wished myself
free, and God has taken me at my Avoid!”
She staggered, threw out her hand
blindly and sank in a dead faint in her
friend’s arms.
Through all that long, sad night she
passed from one fainting lit to another,
tasking all the skill of the medical at
tendants and the kind care of her friend.
She would revive only long enough to
recall the terrible accident; then Avitli a
repetition of her first wild erv—“1 haA'e
murdered them!”—would relapse into
another fainting fit, only to repeat the
same over and over, until at last, as the
morning began to dawn, worn out Avith
the fearful struggle, she slept the'sleep of
utter exhaustion.
When she awakened a feAv hours later
her friend's face greeted her opening-
eyes. At first she gazed around in be-
| wilderment; then, as there came back to
i her the scene of the previous evening.
1 she turned her face to the wall, and the
i first tears she had been able to shed fell
i freely. (Tarice pressed her hand in ten
din' SA'inpathy. making no effort to check
her tears, thinking wisely they were nat
ure's best relief for the aching heart and
overcharged brain.
After a few moments the tears ceased,
and Eva lay motionless Avith closed eyes,
only an occasional sob shaking her light
frame.
■•Oh. Clarice.” shelsaid at last, in bro
ken tones. "1 am most bitterly punished.
1 wanted to he free, and now they are all
gone! 1 am utterly alone! Oh. my God.
how .can 1 hear it!
“But Mav is not seriously hurt,” Clar
ice hastened to explain. "She was only
bruised and stunned. Here she is now,
! as the mischievous cause of all the trou-
1 hie, awed and quieted by the strange
1 scene around her. slipped timidly into the
j room.
Eva sprang up with a Avild cry. and.
1 dropping on her knees, caught the child
I in her arms. "Oh. thank God! she ut-
; tered fervently, "that I have even one
| left.” '
• •Your husband is alive, Clarice said
softlv. laying her hand upon the bowed
head. Eva raised her eyes quickly.
i -Oh. Clarice, say it again!” she cried,
hysterically. betAveen smiles and tears,
j “Dick alive! I must go to him.” And
she rose to her feet, trembling in every
limb from the reaction of feeling.
Clarice laid her hand gently on Eva s
arm as she turned to leave the room.
••"Wait one moment, dear. Richard is
verv seriously hurt, liis head is cut
; badlv. and one leg is broken. It Avas a
long" time before Ae doctors could re
store him to con® iousness, but they
think now Avith the best of care he may
| recover."
Eva had sunk into a chair, her eyes
fixed intently on the face of her friend,
as if everv word were hie or death to
her.
-If care can save him. then he shall
surely live. How gixxl God is to me!
she added fervently,' the tears falling
again, but this time like soft summer
rain.
“And my baby. Clarice, will he live
alsoi'" She almost held her breath,
awaiting the reply. Clarice did net an
swer. on : y passed her arm around Ea.i.
■ and drew*her head against her shoulder.
“Clarice, tell me.” Eva pleaded, -i#
i he dead?' ’
••Yes. dear," Clarice said gently, her
tears falling in sympathy for the be
reaved mother, -he was dead before ihe
One moment, please,” Clarice said,
again detaining her; “let me go first.
He Avas asleep a few moments ago, and
the doctor left orders that he must not
be disturbed.”
She left the room, and in a few mo
ments returned and motioned Eva to fol
low her.
“Be as calm as possible, dear,” Clarice
Avhispered as she left her. As the door j
closed softly behind her friend. Eva stood
still a moment at her husband's bedside.
His head was well covered with bandages,
concealing the ugly Avounds beneath, the
eyes Avere closed and his face wore the
pallor of death. Her heart grew faint
within her; surely he would die. if not
already dead: and every unkind Avord
she had spoken rose up liefore her like
avenging spirits. How all the «*ld love
revived with tenfold power! He had
never, even in their happiest days, seemed
so inexpressibly dear as at that moment!
Oh. if God would but spare him. a life
time of devotion should atone for all past
unkindness.
A quick sob broke from her. notwith
standing her efforts of self control.
Richard’s eyes unclosed and Avith a faint
i smile he held out his hand to her. Drop
ping on her knees by the side of the bed
she laid her head beside his on the pillow,
while Ill's arm Avas passed fondly about
her.
“Oh. Dick, forgive me!” she sobbed,
forgetting all her caution. “I shall never
j forgive myself; I'll newer speak an unkind
Avoid again, never, never, while I live!”
The sentences Avere broken and disjointed,
uttered amidst sobs and tears.
“There, there, dear.” Richard said,
genth. as he drew her face closer to him
and kissed her tenderly. Then, with a
noble generosity, wliich seems a part of
some men's natures, he added kindly: “I
was to blame; I should have been more
thoughtful; I ought to have taken you
out instead of going off alone for my own
pleasure. We Avill begin aneAv, now”
He stopped, unable to finish the sen
tence.
“Yes. I know! Harry is dead. Oh,
my baby! my baby!” she sobbed.
Richard’s lips quivered and the heavy
eyelids were pressed upon the pallid
cheeks to repress the starting tears He
drew her closely toward him and ten
derly pressed her tear stained cheek
against his own in mute sympathy, but
cqjild utter no Avoid.
How very, very dear his beautiful boy
bad been to the young father, none but
God might know.
For a long time they were very quiet,
Eva’s sobs alone breaking the stillness,
until at last those ceased and Richard
said softly:
“Evvie!”
“Yes, dear!”
How many long months had passed
since she had heard the dear old pet
name from his lips! liow many more
since she had spoken one endearing AA’ord
to him! The sound of them now carried
them back to the old, happy days before
harsh words had been spoken or unkind
feelings held sway.
“What do you Avish, dear?” Eva
asked, waiting a moment for her hus
band's request.
“Harry”—his lips trembled—he could
not go on.
“Yes, dear,” Eva said softly, divining
intuitively, in her neAv found sympathy
with her husband, the Avish he could not
express.
Rising quietly, she passed out of the
room. In a few minutes she returned,
hearing the dead babe in her arms.
All "the violence of her grief seemed
hushed into stillness in the presence of
death.
Seating herself on the side of the bed,
she turned her precious burden tenderly
until the father's eye could rest on its
face, his hands touch it without change
of position.
Never in the full flush of health and
infantile beauty had their boy looked
more lovely than iioav, as, robed for the
grave, he lay- in his mother's arms. The
fatal wound had been deftly concealed,
and the locks of hair fell over the Avliile
forehead in soft, curling rings; the long
lashes of the blue veined lids lay lightly

the pretty dimpled hands were crossed on

Too fair and beautiful he seemed for

upon Eva’s with a gentle, loving clasp.

by emotion. “And let us, dear, make
