To love the cross they bear; and even so
Should I love thee, whose pomp of somber state

George Schuyler went home
from the office with two problems
on his mind.
The first did not worry him
much, for it was only a small mat
ter in connection with his bnsiness.
He was a young architect grap
pling with his first large order, the
erection of a thirteen-story office
building.
In one corner of the lot which
the structure was to occupy a
troublesome bit of quicksand had
been discovered, but he knew sev
eral ways of oyercoming quick
sand, and it only remained for him
to cboose the best of them.
The other question was of more
importance and difficult.
What sort of a Christmas pres
ent should he give to a girl who
had always had everything she
wanted from her cradle up?
He could estimate exactly the
tensile strength of any species of
aDy building material, or the num
ber of pounds weight that a steel
truss would have to sustaiu; but he
knew of no fdl-mnla that would
help him m such a case as this.
The trouble seemed to be that
while George .could look at the
building from a professional stand
point, he could take no such view
of anything which concerned Rose’s
happiness.
He was not in love with the gi
gantic mass of brick and iron; but
he was violently, and, so far as he
knew, hopelessly in love with her.
He was willing to give her any
thing that would please her, bnt
he doubted the good, taste of a too
lavish expenditure. No; it must be
some elegant trifle that she had
never seen before, and that would
move her irresistibly to “Love the
Giver." Something that would give
her a hint of.the condition of his
heart, and prepare her for the
words he hoped to utter, some day.
Rose Wyckoff was the daughter
of a man who valued the substan
tial fruits of the harvest above the
pink and white buds of the spring
time.
Most of George’s”prospects were
still in the bud. When that big
building was rgally. finished, and
one or two more that he hoped to
get orders for under way, it wouid
be soon enough to approach the
old gentleman.
Although George had a very
clear idea of what Mr. Wyckoff
would say if he spoke now, he
eould gain no idea of what* Rose
would say; but he was grimly de
termined to try to be worthy of her.
He left the rest to fate, and con
tented himself with drawing the
designs for magnificent and glitter
ing castles in Spain.
When George went to call on
Rose that evening, he tried to be as
cherry and animated as usual, but'
his nervous and absorbed manner
must have given her some hint to
the heavy load of anxiety he was
carrying; for, as he stood dragging
on his overcoat in the hall, after
the last good-nights had been said,
she threw herself across the out
side door, and barred his egress.
As she stood with her gracefully
rounded body well set out by the
polished oaken door, andber bright
face turned up to liim with au ex
pression which a bolder man might
almost have'construed as an invi
tation, George felt that he would
have given the value of all the
buildings that he ever hoped to
plan, to tell her how much he
thought of her.
He was somewhat surprised at
her sudden movement, or as much
as so as he ever permitted himself
to be_at anj'of her actions, which
were generally unaccountable from
a masculine standpoint He only
tfibught that if she were going to
appear inthe oharacterof a jailer,
Lie:could stand a life sentence with
considerable equanimity. .
“How, before you go, George,”
said Rose, with her hand still
the knob, “I want-to ask

on
you one question,
thinking of making a Christmas
present to me this year, are you?”
George owned that he had taken
the matter into serions
tion.
“And yon are determined to per
sist in doing so in spite of my dis
approval?” she asked, with a smile
that mnst have warned him that
her disapproval would not be of a
serioasnatare, for he bad the fine
presence of mind to signify firmly
that he was not only adamant in
that respect, but even iiidum.
Well, I like a determined man,’’
admitted Rose, and with an admire
ing glance at his sufficiently asser
tive chin; “and if you are deter
mined, I want to ask yon to allow
me to choose my own present.”
“With pleasure!’’ exclaimed
George.
“That is awfully nice of you,” ex
claimed Rose; “but be sure to re
member not to get any until you
hear from me. -1 will let you know
in good time. Mast you really
now?” she asked; for George* with
the fortuitous absent minded
ness of a truly bashfal man, had
placed his hand over hers on the
knob of the door. “Good-night,
then,” she said, as' it yielded
their united efforts, and George
found himself standing outside on
the steps. .He raised his hat as the
door closed gently, as if reluctant
to shut him out from her presence,
That night George drew some
preliminary sketches of the Span
ish chateau, that were full of de
tails as to the chatelaine, bnt hazy
as to the stairways.
After that, he saw Rose quite
often before it was time for the
green wreaths to hang in' the parr
lor windows; but she always said
that she was not yet ready to tell
him what kind of a present she
wanted. It was not until Christ
mas eve that he < received, a little
note hastily scribbled on the back
of a visiting card.
Dear George:—I find that £ have neg
lected to give you the information I prom
ised. But it doesn’t matter. We have
gone to the country for our winter out
ing, and mother wants me to ask you to
join us for as many days as you can
spare from business. I hope you will
come and give me a chance to keep my
promise Sincerely yours,
Bose.
George accepted the invitation
with alarcity. He put an “Out of
Town” sign on his office door, and
left the big building to its own de
vices.
On New Year’s morning Rose
suggested a ride to Sunset Hill
one of the wildest and most picjnr
esqe_ spots in the neighborhood
and after the horses were brought
around to the door, they set oat to
gether through the bright frosty
air. They rode half-way up the
hill and then dismounted and,
leaving their horses tied to a bar-
post, followed a rough foot-path to
the summit.
Rose stood close to George, look
ing far out over fields and woods
and groups of cottages, and gazing
witlf thoughtful eyes on the Sound,
where the* snow-covered ice-cakes
glistened in the morning sun. The
strong wind rushed through the
trees and pressed her closer ‘to
him. He steadied her with very
unsteady hands.
What a wreck I am,” sfae said,
as she put back a brown tress which
strayed across her face. “Oh, I
nearly forgot to tell you about my
present. Frankly, would yon mind
giving a ring to me?”
George’s face fell, as he return
ed, “what kind of a ling? You
have so many of them; and I want-
ed to give yon something origi
nal.”
“A riDg wonId*be original from
yon;” and she smiled demurely,
“and I fancy a plain tnrqaoise
would be the proper thing, now.
Here, yon may measure iny finger;
the third. finger, please.” And
drawing off her glove, she slipped
a warm, little left hand into his.
“The third! Why, that is the en-
gagementfinger!”exclaimed George
as the air assumed for him the
balmy, mildness of an Indian snm-
mer. •
“You. said it yourself, George
Schuyler!” she cried, with a brave
attempt to be saucy; but her voice
was timid and choked; as ehe rest
ed her delicate head lightly against
his shaggy coat; “and, now, yon
can never tell any one I proposed-
to yon, even if—even is tbia is T

New York are beginning, to.take
view of the situation not very pleas
ant to the friends of Mr. Hill,, bnt
the name of the party before the
people and its success demand that
it ahoulcbbe so. Democrats who
have pot yet yoked themselves in
Mr. Hill’s collar, do not appreciate
yet-to the fallest extent the su
preme importance of gratifying the
political ambitions of that astute
.gentleman, bnt are considering the
welfare of the party, and a plan of
campaign that will entrench it in
the hearts of the people and at
Washington.
It was in that view of it that the
Enquirer-Sun turned to the proba
bility of Western candidates. There
can be no doubt that Mr. Cleveland
is the first choice of the Democrat
ic masses of the country, outside of
New York. If the New York De
mocracy makes it inadvisable and
unsafe for the Chicago convention
to recognize and yield to the popu
lar demand, it is not improbable
that the logic of that condition will
lead the Chicago convention to seek
elsewhere for its candidate.
Taking the same view of the
matter, the New York World gives
the names of nine prominent citi
zens that are household words in
the great democratic family, any
one of whom it claims could carry
New York, and be elected Presi
dent. ’Here is what the World
says

tional Democratic convention shall
drop all New York candidates,
then, on a sound tariff reform and
Tionest money platform, we believe
that any one of the following

Care of Country Roads In Germany.
The highways of Germany are
built to last forever, and their ex
cellence is not surpassed anywhere.
In addition to the main road there
is a sidewalk for foot passengers,
and another path for horseback
riders. All along the sides trees
are planted as soon as the roads
are finished. Usually these are
fruit trees, the crops of which fur
nish a part of the income ' of the
men who take care of the road, or
of the toll gatherer. For everv ve
hicle a small toll is collected for a
given distance, except farm wag
ons, which are free. Heavily load
ed trucks have to have broad tires
on their wheels. The cost of build-
and maintaing these roads is
not put cn the rural population
alone, but the cities, desiriug to
secure the rural traffic, assume
the largest share of it. The prin
cipal highways are macadamized
and are built by the State*, which
has also the control of them.—
