To be gently, yet firmly, thwarted, to have to listen to opinions opposed to his own, had not occurred to him sin m his marriage. He had been ever abeolute mester in his do- mestic affairs as well as he his busi- ness affairs. His experience of his wife in her short married life was one of entire submission on her part to his slightest word.. She had never cross- ed him by word or look, had never re- fused to obey him. He did not pause to consider that, having truly loved her during that brief time, this might have been because he was fairly in- dulgent to her, and because he gave her many evidences of his affection. It may be that this happy state of affairs weuld not have been continued, and that it was fortunate for her that she lived only long' enough to. bask in the sunshitte. of his favor. He did not pause to consider that, even if to be kind to the poor is ere not natural to his daughter, he had by neglect driv 'en her tato occupation and companionship foreign,Ato his own thoughts and ways. The dominant feeling in his mind was that Rachel had set herself in opposi- tion to him. There occurred. to hittt at this Junc- ture the remembrance of the letter Aunt Carrie had written ;to him when she was en her death -bed, and that there was something in ;t to which he had not at the time pael careful at- tention, concerning Rachel's disposi- tion. "1 wonder if I can find that letter," he muttered; "1 think I did not de- stroy it." He searched among his private cor- respondence and lighted upon the let- ter. He sat down and read it care - tiny through, and certain sentences in it produced, in his present mood, a strong impression. In speaking of .:aa- chel Aunt Carrie had said: A nature like hers—trustful, depend- ent for strength upon the strength of others, craving and drawing nourish- ment, as if indeed it were a necessity of her being, from visible evidence of affection—is difficult to deal with. "Difficult to deal 'with 1" he mutter- ed. "But Rachel is a. child, or, if not a child, at leaat a young woman who has been brought up in easy circum- stances, without anything* around her to develop strange and unnatural quali- ties." He continued his reading of the let- ter "Nat that she does not possess a certain strength of character. The opportunities for the development of this strength. which in the course of life may serve her in god stead, have happily not occurred, but I have been. fondly and earnestly attentive to her ways and moods, and I know that be- hind her gentle, sweet and quiet man- ners there is a. force of will for which few would give her credit. This pecu- liar and hidden quality would never be exercised, and. would never show itself, unless under circumstances in which, let me say, as a probable case, hEr affections were engaged, and. In which, having two courses before her, she would unhesitatingly choose that which she believed. would be the right one, even at the risk of great suffering to herself. You, also, my dear Rich- ard, possess this force of character, and doubtless have transmitted it as an inheritance to your daughter." He finished the letter and laid it aside. "A certain force of character," he muttered, which I have doubtless transmitted. as an inheritance to my daughter! Well, if that really be the case, and Rachel is obstinate and self- willed, it will be a battte between us. Behind her gentle, sweet and quiet manners there is a force of will for which few would give her credit.' Upon my word, there seems something like. it in Rachel's disinclination to meet my views! She must meet thein; she shall meet them! She shall obey me and da as X wish. That my own. flesh and blood should turn against ine—it is monstrous ! For whom am X work- irg ? For her. Who will inherit the money I have made? Why, she. I had no other thought. Now that my attention is, from what has occurred, seriously directed to her, I resolve that sne shall marry ; and marry well. No poor man ; no beggar ! She shall marry one as rich as I am myself, as rich as she will be. If Rachel: thinks that 1 shall let drop what has oc- curred to -day between us, she will find herself mistaken. It is 1 who am mas- ter of my house and family. It will be a wholesome lesson to her when she :tarns the folly of placing herself in direct opposition to me." There was no thought in his mind of reproaching himself ; there was no thought ;that he was in any way to blame for his neglect of his daugh- ter, for his lack of affection and com- mon feeling toward her. He had worked himself into a mood in which it was Impossible for him to see that he could be in the slightest Way to blame. A little while afterward he was in bis office, talking to his manager upon business matters. He glanced toward the desk wItich Henry Wyatt occupied. The stool was empty. "Where IS Wyatt ?" he inquired. "He asked for leave of absence," re- plied the manager, "and as he has been rather hard worked lately, and there was nothing of importance for him to attend to, I told him he might go for the day." "Hard worked !" exclaimed Mr. Inglefield, "Is he Unwell." No, sir," Said the manager, "He wished to attend the funeral of a fr4encl of his, a poor lad in the east, to whom he was much attached." The coincidence immedlatelY struck Mr, Inglefielth " you know the :Wane of the lad?" "1 tltirtic It Was joSeph—e, biight bOY, of whom Wyatt had spoken hi terms of great admiration." It Was On Mr, Inglefleld's lips to ask whether the manager was aware that his daughter had one to the funeral, and whether there weal any acquaintance between her and his clerk, Henry Wyatt, but he oheelced himself. He was not the kind of man to expose his private affairs to a stranger, It was a day pregnant with both joy and sadness to Rachel and Henry. Joseph had made himself loved in the neighborhood in which he had lived, and a. greet many persons attended the funeral in token of their serroW at his death. There were some also who attended because they knew that Henry Wyatt and his father and the young lady who walkea like a minister- ing angel among them, intended to fol- low the remains of the poor lad. to the grave, This deeire for vicarious die - Unction is natural and not blamable, tpecially when it is allied with sincere feeling. The prayers for the deal NS ere said, and Rachel and Henry stood side by side, looking into the grave of their departed friend. She moved a step forward, and as she bent over and scattered some flowers upon the coffin, her hand, for support, rested in. Henry's. There it remained, and pre- sently, hand in hand, they wandered a little apart, a secret of joy stirring within them even itt the midst of their sorrow. " On such an oucasion as this," said Henry, "1 have always felt the true solemnity of life and the littleness of its surroundings. Sometimes at night, what,. I have looked up at the stars, I have thought what pygmies we are, and haw we fret ourselves unnecessar- ily, because we are not rich enough to purchase pleasures and luxuries which others enjoy. As if it mattered, SO long as one does one's duty! Do you know that at times I have even looked upon the loss of fortune as a blessirg7 I think it opens one's eyes to what is sweetest and worthiest. To do one's duty—to be kind and helpful ta others— it is in that way life can be sanctified. Bow I honor you for the good you have done! How proud it makes Inc to hear people speak of YOU i" She raised her eyes to his. "It makes me proud, too, to hear people speak of you." "No merit is mine," seta Henry. "I was forced among them; you came of Your own prompting, you sought them Gut; .„from the sweetness of your own na.ture you held forth the helping h "It was you who showed me the way," she murmured. "Among all your friends there is not one who lion- crs you rnore deeply than I." Her voice was tremulous, but she did not cast dowa her eyes ; she kept them upon his face ; and if ever true love found expression it found expres- sion in her. "1 do nat think," he said, presently, " that in any place than this, or un- der any other circumstances I should have the courage to speak; but at least we are equal here; and if, in saying that I love you with a man's full heart and devotion, the words pain you, forget tl'em and forgive me." "There is no forgiveness needed," she arid, softly and sweetly ; "your words will live ever within, me as a most cherished remembrance." He clasped her hand more firmly, and she returned the clasp timidly and trustfully ; and there, in that solemn place and at that solemn time, they plighted their hearts. Thus upon joseph's humble grave, Heaven was al- ready shining. "Perhaps it Will be best to speak ,now, Papa." "Much the best, While you have been absent, I ehave looked up a letter written to me by your Ana Carrie, and I have read in it what I did not pay Suiliciera attention to—that you have a knack of iesisting upon your own way; and that, when you have made up your mind to a thing, you will ad- here to it, whether it be right sr wrong." "1. shall always de- what I think is right, papa," said Rachel " never anY- thing wrong, 1 hope." " I hope not. You, have been to this funeral, I repeat. .Answer me." "Yes, papa, I have been." "Did you meet any persons whom I know? I will have the truth, Ra- chel." "Mr. Henry Wyatt was there, papa.' He slapped his hand upon the table. " I suspected as much. Have you known him long ?" "1 have known, fer some time, papa?" "What are the relations between you ? Sueely not friendly ones 1" "Certainly friendly ones, papa." He noticedthe rising color in her face, anei. he played with a book which lay on the tablet and. then thrust it roughly from him. "There is something more in your mind." "Yes, papa., I vras going to speak to you about it to -nig -ht. Papa, Mr. Wy- att and 1 "— " Stop 1" he cried. "It will perha,ps be advisable for you to leave unsaid what is in your mind, and to listen to certain views of mine which bear upon your future." "Yes, papa, I will listen." " You are now a woman. I recognize the fa.ct, and. that you cannot always remain with me at home." These words bore so closely upon the new ties she had, formed on that day that Raclael's heart beat fast ; but she did not know -whether to hope or to fear, "A. father's hold upon bis children," continued Mr. Inglefield, "lasts only for a certain number of years. When they become men and women their thoughts turn, naturally perhaps, to - Ward a, new sphere of life; and If it happens that they choose for them- selves, it is well for them, if their choice meets with their parents' ap- proval, Do you understand me, Ra- chel ?" "Only partially, papa." "1 will make myself quite clear to ydu. It is time that you should marry. You are what is oommcnly called a good catch in the market ; that is to , say, you will be a good catch if you act according to my wishes—not other- wise. Whoever may be the lucky man, he will have no reason to grumble, for I can give him a fortune with you. Of course he must be In your own rank of life; and I promise you that, in your cwn interests, I will be wary of adven- turers. As I am rich, he must be rich; whether he be a merchant or not matters little, so long as he occupies a position. Do you understand me now ?" "Yes, Pana." said Rachel, in a low trine. "And you egree ?" "No, papa, I cannot agree in all that you have said." "What part of it displeases you ?" he asked, sternly. "1 shall never marry, papa, unless I "Loire !" he sneered. "Girls' talk, learned from cheap romances. Love comes after marriage, not before. When girls' heads are turned by such weak, sentimental nonsense, they are unfitted for the duties of life, and they generally suffer for their folly—and serve them right ! It is well for you that you have a wiser head than your own to direct you, and if you are wise —1 will not say if you are dutiful and affectionate, because that seems some- what too much to hope for --you will be guided by me in this matter. There is time enough before us. I will, for your sake, depart from xny usu-al hab- its. You shall enter into society ; if I find it necessary, I will take a house in a fashionable quarter. Wedded as I am to my business, and deriving my chief pleasure from it, you will ac- knowledge that this will be no small 5s orifice for me to make ; and if you have any proper feeling in you, you will appreciate it. Yes, you shall go into society ; and 1 have no doubt, when it becomes known that you are an heir- ess, you will meet with plenty of suit- ors. You will be able to pick and choose, and X shall see you a happy married woman." Rachel felt that it would be an act of evasion and. hypocrisy to delay the confession which was upon her lips but she had to nerve herself for it; and while she was whispering to her- self, "Courage, Rachel, courage ; for Henry's sake as well as for your own," Mr. Inglefteld kept his eyes fixed upon her face, and noted the color come and go, and the rising and falling of her betiom. Presently she spoke, in a tone of sweetness, modesty and decision. "Papa, I have made my ohoice." He started to his feet. "You have made your choice! With- out consulting me, your father, your natural protecter." He paused in anger, and Rachel's appealing looks did not tend to pacify him ; but he did not allow his eager to overcame hint. There was a curious likeness in his and Rachel's methods; he inwardly ochooled himself as she had done, and when he epoke again it was calmly and. coldly. "Perhaps you will favor me with the name et the man yea have chosen," " It is Mr. Heruy Wyatt, papa." She was about to proceed, whet,. he sternly stopped. her. "Enough—not another word.

Children Cry for Pitcher's Castpria) CHAPTER IX. Sorrow quickly trod upon the heels of joy. On the same day that the lovers plighted their troth they decid- ed in their calmer moments that it was in honor and duty necessary that Ra- ' chel's father should be inform.ed of ' their engagement. It was with a sink- ing heart that Henry acquiesced in this arrangement; indeed, it was he who had proposed it ; but after a while he was unworldly enough to feed upon the hope that Mr. Inglefield would con- sult only his daughter's happiness, and would not take into account the dis- parity of their circumstances. However, it was not left for him or Rachel to act.... Mr. Inglefleld himself I took the matter in hand. Upan Ra..1 °hers return from the funeral she was confronted by her father, who said, abruptly: "So—you have been to this funeral, although yoa knew it was my wish that you should not attend it! I per- eeive that I must speak to you seri- ously. In what I am about to say, and the questions I am about to ask, will have no evasions ; I will have plain : and truthful answers." " I have never been anything but truthful to you, father," sold Rachel. " / am unable to form an opiniun upon that at present," said Mr. Ingle - field. "An untruth may be acted 115 well as spoken." " X have never acted an untruth," said Rachel, firmly. "Papa, why do you speak so unkindly to me ? Why do not love me 7" " Love you! Who has put the idea into your head that I do not love you? I have for yon the proper feelings of a father for his child, and I trust you have the prOper feelings of a child for her father; but 1 shalt Soon discover for myself whether that is so or not.

Be wise, Rachel, if you have an regard for the future." She rose, Her face was white, and there were tears in her eyes. "Father 1" He strove to arrest her words by ex- claiming "1 have warned you, Rachel, and X Will not listen to you." " You must listen to me, father," 'She said. "It is very little 1 have to say at this moment, but it must be spoken. You have accused Mr. Wyatt of trick- ing to win me; he has not done so, He has been manly and honorable and up- right ; and had he not seen that I loved him, I doubt whether he would ever have had the courage to ask me to be his wife. If either of us is to blame it is 1, net he." "An unmaidenly confession," said Mr. Inglefield. " Go from my sight immediately!' She left the room slowly, with head cast down,- but when she closed the door upon her father her strength gave way, and it was with difficulty that sat reached her apartment. (TO BE CONTINUED.) LOW LAKE LEVELS. What Will be the Effect on the Lakes When the Great Chicago Canal is Opened. The low water which has for some time been the rule in Lake Ontario, is a pheno- menon whioh may well make people wonder what will be the- case when the great Chicago drainage canal is in full working order. Chicago never does things by halves, and when that great city had to find an outlet for its sewage it resolved to out through the watershed and divert a part of Lake Michigan into the Gulf of Mexico. Chicago has tried hard to keep the lake from whith it draws its water supply free from pollution. But spite orall its efforts the filthladen current of the Chicaeo river. would, when swollen with rain, iovade the lake, carrying the germs of typhoid out toward the cribs whence the water supply of the city is obtained. To obviate this and similar dangers the sanitary district of -rChics,go was formed in 1889. This " dis- trict" is A PUBLIC CORPORATION, managed by elective trustees, having the right to levy a tax and to issue bonds. The district comprises most of the oity of Chicago, in addition to 40 square miles of Cook county, outside of the city ihnits. Having to choose between pumping the city's sewage out to the sand flats of Indi- ana and sending it by a deep water canal to the lower waters of the Illinois river, the trustees finally chose the latter method of disposal. Either was costly, the drain- age channel being adulated, for construe, tion and right-of-way, at not less than $25,000,000, but the pumping plan would have cost more. In September, 1892, the digging out of a channel big enough to hold a river of large proportions was begun. The work is now more than half done, and what the result will be when the great outlet sewer is open for business has al- ready begun to excite some uneasiness. The channel is to be about 28 miles long, from Chicago to Lockport, and it will connect with the old Illinois and Michigan canal basin a little farther on at Joliet. With a depth of 26 feet, and a bottom width varying from 110 to 202 feet, the channel will carry eff from Lake Michigan a volume of water which is computed at 300,000 cubic feet per minute. When its narrower section, only eight miles of the whole, is widened out to the full limit, and the gigantic ditch assumes, as it is intended to do, the character of A SHIP CANAL, the discharge of water will be at the rate of 600,000 cubic feet per minute, which in the Henn of Commons was said the other day to amount to five per cent. of the water passing through the Niagara river. Although this is said by some to be calcul- ated to reduce the levels of our lakes, it is vatisfactory to find that this opinion is not held by all scientific meu. Some of the Chicago engineers are of opinion that it will lower the lake levels and that of the Niagara river four inches. On the other hand several engineers have come forward to maintain the thesis that it will not lower them at all. They adduce evidence to show that a paradox exists with regard to the Towering of the level of a body of Water by discharge from it. This being the case,it would seem that nothing can be done at present but investigate the truth of these affirmations. Meanwhile, nobody seems to know exactly how it is that the level of Lake Ontario is so low. That at any rate is not affected by the Chicago drainage °anal, Woodstock will soon vote on a by-law fo a $9,000 gnarket shed. How to Raise Ducks. A writer who thinks unlimited water a bad thing for young dualts, reoommende the followiug treatment for them: "Ducke are easily hatehed, and if properly Managed they are easily raised nitwit more so thee chiokens or turkeys. Probably the womb thing for ducklings is the first thing they usually receive, and that is uulimited range and water to evrim in. The little things are in a measure, nude, and should be kept in pens with dry soil floors' or stone pavements that can be washed down daily. No kind of poultry will succeed on bare boards, All the water they need is best furnished by burying an old pot in the ground and laying a round. piece of board on top of the water with rooni for the ducks to stick their heads in and fish out the corn that is put in the water, Thie amuses them and does no harm, while, if allowed to go off to ponds or streams, they are very liable to fella prey to vermin in some shape, or to get their bodies wet and chilled from remaining too long ia the water. Their pens must be kept oleau if they are expected to thrive. How to get a "Sunlight" Picture.
