Elizabeth Clifton had been married just a month, and the first shadow had come over her happi ness. T suppose it whs some tiresome business that upset Henry so,” she sighed, “for it-was just after he had read his letters; it must have been the one thrust into .his pock et that had the bad news. But how completely his manner to mo changed! I don't understand it. When I asked him. if anything was tue matter he actually mumbled something-I couldu’t make out, and then the clock struck, aud we heard the whistle of the train; that provoking train! it always comes at the wrong time. But the worst of all was his not kissing me good- by! To be sure, he had done sa once when he first got up from the breakfast table, thinking he would not wait for the mail, aud I know he was iu a hurry when that whis tle sounded, for it just gives him time to reach the station; but it. wouldn’t have taken a minute to say good-by again, and instead he ushedoff without a word!” By this time the young wife, ip ipite of herself, was crying quiet ly. But she was a brave girl, and did not give way any more than she could Help. After a little she decided to go ont and lake a wyilk. She would probably have time be- fore her mother-in-law had risen, and the fresh air might do her good. For she would not sit and mope any longer; sc?, jumping up suddenly, Elizabeth carefully re moved all traces of weeping, aud put on her garden hat. She was about to step to the door when a knock sounded thereat. Looking hastily in the mirror to see whether any tear stains, were visible on her face she opened the door as little as possible, that she might not be seen. Her mother- in-law’s maid stood in the hall." “Mrs. Clifton is ready to see yon, ma’am, whenever you wish to come,” the girl said respectfully. “Very well, Jane; I widbe there iu a few minutes.” And giving another peep into the glass to be sure that her eyes-were not red, Elizabeth went to make her regu lar morning visit to the invalid. The young couple had the first part of their honeymoon in a pleas- ant trip to Niagara, returning thence to pay a visit to the elder Mrs. Clifton in her pretty country home in one of the picturesque val leys of-Peunsylvnnia. The bride had never seen her husband’s mother, and rather dreaded the ordeal of making her acquaintance. She fonndher very charming, but was haunted by a secret fear that, her admiration -was not returned; she fancied that she was undergoing a critical scru tiny from the fond parent whose only child she had married. This mornings Elizabeth particularly shrank from the interview, for she feared that her face “was a telltale one. -However, the visit most-be gone through with, so, summoning ; all her courage, shelioldly knock ed at the door of her mother-in- law’s sitting room z and was at once admitted. “Good morning, my dear,” said ■ the eider Mrs. Giifton in a low, sweet voice, and the young lady kneltdo -receive her usual kiss. The invalid pressed her pale thin lips against Elizabeth’s soft rosy ones,- and then, laying h<-r hand gently on her da‘nghter-in law ? s shoulder, looked mildly, but searchingly into the upturned face. “How do you feel this morning, mother?” asked Elizabeth gently.. “Very well, thank you, for hie. But how are you, my child? Didn’t ypu sleep well last night? Tour eyes look dull and heavy.” “I have, a slight headache,” an swered-the young wife, hoping thus to account for her clouded face. “How did you think. Henry seemed when he stopped iuHo say good morning and good-by to you before he came in to breakfast?’' she continued, trying to speak carelessly. “He looked very well—splen did,” was the reply." “Didn’t you ihink so, too?” - • “Oh, yes, certainly,” said Eliza beth hastily.-" ‘Itis too bad foryou that he had to rush off to'at tend to that both ersome business of mine, leaving you all alone, with nobody but a stupid old woman to keep you company; but never rniud it; it won’t take him more than a day or two, and the^matter was very im portant—it involved considerable money. Besides,” with a little laugh, “the honeymoon ended yes terday; you must come down out of Paradise.” ~ . ‘■Don’t trouble about that, I am not in the least lonely,” answered Elizabeth, “and, as you say, the honeymoon is over.” But her heart sank within her at the omnious words. Was this what Henry’s manner that morning meant? “My dear,” said the elder lady, closing the book 1 which had l:ec-"n lying open on her lap and putting it on a wicker chair that stood close by*'' “I was only joking;.! hope aud pray that Henry’s and your honeymoon will never be over.' As long as you love eacli other yon have a glimpe of Para dise.” There was silence a few mo ments. Elizabeth seated herself iu a rocking chair, tookofi her hat, which she had forgotou iu her preoccupation, and began talking about indifferent matters. At last, in obedience to her mother-in-law's’ J suggestion, and thankful to be - released, young Mrs. Clifton started out for a walk. It would be better than staying in the house, trying to sew ' or read, and there was a shady wood uear by where she could be nndisturb- ed. It opened on the high road, but a fence kept out "all intruders. As Elizabeth neared her destina tion she noticed that a tail tree out side the wood was bent and nearly uprooted, while the branches were almost denuded of the leaves which only two days before had glowed in the red and gold glory of 'au tumn. Then she remembered that it had stormed the previous day-— one of those violent- storms which sometimes come early and rob the forests' of their ""foliage. With a. shiver Elizabeth wondered if a chill had come over every one— was the winter indeed come? Left alone in her quiet room the elder Mrs. Clifton leaned back in her arm-chair looking gravp. “Poor child! I wonder if they have had their first quarrel? Well, I suppose it must come some time. They will be all right by evening. I am sorry Henry was obliged to be gone all day; 1 wish "I conid "help them,” and she ended her so liloquy with a sorrowful shake of the head. In tlie meantime - Elizabeth did not get a chance to enter the wood; for, as she stopped by the" beut tree,- she glanced up the road aiid saw in the’ distance a party of ladies and gentlemen whom she fancied she. recognized. They evidently knew her, for they waved their handkerchiefs, shoaling and gestic ulating frantically. As they"came nearer she saw that they were the young folks belonging to- several families in the neighborhood, ail of whom had called on her and at whose houses she bad visited. Elizabeth stood her ground. ^ “There is no use in retreating into the wood,” she told herself; “they would only follow and hnut me up. I must submit.” -—She did si very -unwillingly, however, for she did not feel ia the least -like speiug strangers; she consoled herself by thinking that they probably had- some object in view aud would soon go on their way. She was disappointed in this, for no;soouer had greetings been exchangedjHban the foremost | when addressing his- wife, but a J ALLIANCE LECTURE SYSTEM. of the party—Miss Earle, a yqun lady to whom Elizabeth had taken quite a fancy aud who was a favor ite of Mrs. Clifton^—cried out: “How lucky! We were just- com ing to the'house after you. We had planned a picnic" tor to-day, but yesterday’s storm has made the woods too damp, so we have de cided to take a straw ride instead, Yon must come—1c As great fun— and yonr husband, too; isn’t he at home?” • - Mr. Clifton was called awaj to day on business,” answered Eliza beth, “and Pin .afraid I can’t leave mother for. any length of time.” Bul N the party would not accept this excuse. Mrs. Clifton, the el der, was usedto be ing'alone—they knew that, and-she—j-oungJIis. Clifton—must be lonely, with her husband away. Protestations were useless; so finally, seeiug therejvas no way of escape, Elizabeth yielded graceful ly, only stipulating that she must tell her mother-in-law’s where she was going. Two or three of the party wanted to go in her stead, but .this she positively rsfused to allow. There was a farm a short distance up - the road, where their coiiveyanco awaited them, aud Mrs. Clifton agreed to meet them there. Some of the people would have in sisted on accompanying her; but being possessed of quick intui tion, aud divining that the young bride was in-no mood for company. Miss Earle dragged the whole party toward the meeting place, leaving Elizabeth to hurry 'home alone.' If they have had r. tiff she had better forget her misery in compa ny, after she has had time to re cover herself,” was Miss Earle’s wise reflection: Young Mrs.? Clifton informed her mother-iu -law of the invitation, which she was of course urged to accept, said good-by, and went to her own room to make some changes in her toilet. She linger ed over the process as long as pos sible, patting off the moment of joining the merry makers until she reltehe must go. Then she start ed out at a very laggard pace. Hardly had Elizabeth left the room when her husband knock ed ai his mother’s door. “Why, Henry! you have- got back very early,” cried the invalid in surprise, when her sou appear ed in answer to her “Come in.” “Yes, Ormsby was away; I couldn’t do anything. I shall have to go back to-morrow,” Mr. Clifton answered, as he stooped to kiss tlie face upturned toliis. “If I hadn’t known you expected ms home this evening I would have remained all night.’.’ This total ignoring of his wife startled Mrs. Clifton, find one look into her son’s stern face strength ened her fears. “Poor babies! they must really sadden cold gust of wind made him put it On again. After she | National Farmers Alliance and Indus- said I then she spoke. “Henry, my dear boy,” she said gently, “if you and Elizabeth have had a disagreement find her at once and make it up, Dofi’t let it go on, I beseech you.” “Mother, it is much worse than" a disagreement. Has she said auythingto you?” was the reply. j, “Nothing, my son, and I do not wish to know; it is entirely be tween yon two. I only beg you to do as-! say.” - There was silence for a moment or two, and then Henry asked gloomily: “Where is Elizabeth ?” Mrs. Clifton explained, her daughter-! u-law’s whereabouts, adding: “If you go at once, Henry, yon may be able to overtake her. before she reaches the rest of the party.' And she raccompanied the words with a beseeching look. An instant’s hesitation, and with an abrupt go8d-by the young man left the room, while his mother leaned back with an air of relief. ’. “It will surely all come right now,” she told herself. Young Mrs. Clifton was . just leaving the wood to set out on the high road toward the farm when she heard her name called in a voice she recognized at once-as her husband’s, though the tone was new to her ears. She waited’until he came up to where she s^ood. Then, iu a very ceremonious man ner, he accounted - for nis unex pected appearance. In a tone equally cold Elizabeth informed him where she was going, pointing toward-, the farm honse as she spoke. had finished speaking he gravely: “Elizabeth, I have something to say to yon. Will you give up ibis pleasure party, if I make your ex cuses to them, and listen to me for a few minutes?” Theadea of giving up tins pleas ure party struck young Mrs. Clif ton- with u sense of bitter absurdi ty.^ For a moment a spirit or defi ance possessed her, and the answer No” trembled on - her lip. In that short space ot time her life’s .happiness, perhaps, hung rn the balance. “1 will wait here,”. Elizabeth said at last, and, lifting his hat very ceremoniously,* her husband, with a formal “Thank you,” walk ed rapidly up the road. The minutes seemed like hours nntil he returned. Elizabeth stood motionless just where he had left her. He came quite close and looked keenly into her face. “I have a letter here I would like you to read,” he said, iu horribljr judicial.tones; “but first let me ex plain how it came into my poses- sion. If you will loos at t he ad dress yon will notice that the word ‘Mrs.’ is written very much like ‘Mj.’—the ‘s’ is hardly noticeable. Jane gave it to me, this mornin with my mail. I hastily broke it open without even glancing at the outside, not being a woman, aud— perhaps you can explain the rest.” Elizabeth received the extended envelope mechanically,looked at the the direction and then took out the inclosure—two sheets of closely written paper—looked at that aiid then up at her husband. “I have not read it- all,” he said, in a very quiet tone. •‘Perhaps if you had you wo.nld have seen it was not for me,” his wife answered, just as quietly. Elizabeth felt only a terrible an ger—all other feelings seemed in abeyance. She looked at the let ter again, while her husband watched in dull amazement. What did this mean? Was it guilt or iu- nocence? Suddenly it flashed over her what her husband must have felt when he saw the words of endear ment ou the page—“My own dar ling”—that must have stared at him the instant he unfolded the sheet. Henry,” she begau, lifting her clear eyes to his, “if you had shown me this before yon went away”—- “I had not time,” he hastily in? terrupted. But she went on without heed ing him: “It would-have saved us both a very nnhappy morning. I have been foolisli,I knew that, and so I did not dare to tell yon.

In a moment of weakness i said he'might address his letters to me, and.then I would re-inclose them to^Kate. I have been sufficiently punished for my folly.” Elizabeth, forgive me!” was all her husband could say, and for an- -sriver she smiled at him through her tears. Presently Henry told her how near he came not showing her the letter. “It was my dear mother who in duced me to do it,”- he said tender ly, and Elizabeth whispered: “Let us go-lb thank liar;.she need not know how foolish I have been.” 'Dear, we will lock the secret of onr folly in our own bosoms,' Henry answered; “and - perhaps we have learned q lesson, we shall never forget, this one Octaber morning.” Ada Gray, of Cincinnati, is" “the only colored lady dentist” in the United States.

Heed the Warning. It"is not infrequently the case that itching pimples find irritating “cat boils” are .the forerunners of larger boils, or the more serious carbuncles. Invariably Nature puts out her danger signals, and they should lie heeded at- once. The pimples find little boils show that the blood is not in a good eru dition, and natnre is trying to re lieve the system. ~A few dosKS of -Swift’s Specific r.i this juncture will accomplish wonders, The eruption will be ’ healed . ana tlie system cleansed of its impurities.
