water rose Clem dragged me further up
the tree, both of us :wet andshivering.
Around U:4 as far as we mil? e0e was
a wide world of dark wavar
rolling, hurryingon. There ss'as A Strang°
fascination in it too. I knew no swim-
mer could breast that awful eurrent ;
that the treacherlAis ssial would drag
him down like, a giant armed ‘,ctopus,
yet there was such a rolliking, dancing
glee, such a whirling of air and ahore,
that one wanted to join the proceasion
and harry along too." The waves were
full of rotten tree trunks and debris of a
Wooded hillside, showing the cloud had
come down some mountain side miles
away; and with the trees were homely
household utensils and furniture, a calf
and a washtub that sailed jovially along
till it struck a timber and succumbed.
I had seen our wagon disappear on the
crest of the first wave but I was sure the
horses were safe. Then I began to
think of ourselves. The tree was §-wily-
ing perilously, the water seething about
its roots.
Is it still risin''a-T1 I said to Clem,
who answered ")Ces," quietly holding
me tight all the while,
"Don't let me go I" I cried piteously;
"at least let us die together." I be-
came aware that he held me very close
and was brushing the wet hair off my
face,
"I wish I had my coat;" he said ten-
derly, "that poor little dress of yours is
is so thin. How you tremble! Do I
hold you too tight ?- Is this the end of
your martyrdom,. I wonder:- Poor Molly,
your married life has been one long tor-
ture."
"It would not have been if you had
laved use," I cried, and then I told him -
all my troubles that I had hoarded up
and gloated over as a miser .does his
• gold. I told him of the saddle he
promised, the many other, little acts of
neglect, of things that go to make up
the sum of a woman's happiness; his in-
difference to baby's sickness and my own
woes. "I had no friend," I stammered,
" DO one to bid me have hope and take
up heart again. Oh, Clem, there are
more tragedies in the homely every day
life than will ever be written in books or
understood by men !"
I saw his face droop, his mouth quiv-
er, and then I felt a sob rise in his
breast. Clem crying—the great, strong
man!:I could not bear that. For-
give me, I was wrong," I said, "I fan-
cied all this. You did not mean it."
But he only muttered, "Blind ! blind!"
Still the flood went on ; still the dark
waters encompassed us about, till I
thought, Verily, the floodgates of
Heaven are open." Then, as the old
tree rocked and writhed in the torrent,
Clem told me simply and honestly, that
hehadnot understood. He thought I
will contented, and he was not used to
the little caresses that come natural to
other men; he had no mother or sisters
—dear, quiet, old Clem—to teach him.
But he was bitterly sorry, and lie
thought from my ravings after baby
died that I hated him and blamed him
for the child's death. It was so good to
hear him reproach himself and to have
him kiss me in that passionate grief that
I was indifferent to the flood or future.
- For a moment we were silent, and
looking into his dear face; I -mercifully.
did not see the coining wave, but I
heard the loader roar echoing the far
away thunder peal and corning with the
crash of a gale in a pine forest, or the
breaking of the surf on a rocky ceast.
There was one swift moment of agollized
expectation when it washed over us,
bending the tree to its level, but it
went on and the tree did not follow.
I remember Clem kissed me and
said he thought the water was going
down, but somehow I did not heed.
f think I fainted. When I. did begin
to realize again, the flood was quite
low, gene as swiftly as it came. Only a
muddy brook creeping down the sandy
creek bed where a mighty river had
been ; the sun had come out bright and
warm and the storm was past: What
havoc and desolation the flood'caused
was recorded in all the -papers, but
our deaths were not among the disas-
ters. I fancied that great volume of
water roaring on to the Platte River,
swelling its tide to wash the shores of
sandy plains and fertile meadow lands,
far to the turbulent Missouri, ending at
last in a shining blue seaethe great Gaff
of Mexico.
" Shall I carry you, you little, thin
thing -said Clem.
" You might slip," I said, so -hand in -
hand like two children we eroseed the
slippery laud to the ranch two miles
away. On a hill by the creek I saw our
wagon flung bottom up, and by the ranch
we found our horses feeding quietly.
Luckily Clem's matches—in the silver
case I had given him long before we
were married—were dry, and he built up
a fire in the fire -place in the log cabin.
When I stood there to dry my clothes I
took my treasures out of, my wet pocket
and put them by the fire. Clem came in
with some wood and saw them. He
stooped down on one knee and teak them
in his hand.
I was running away when I s'aw
you," I said, determined to keep no
more secrets from him. He loaked up
at me and said slowly.
"I—i was running away myself. I
thought you hated rne—I sold the ranch
to Mrs. Frances -good business woman—
mean though—haggled a year about the
price—five thousand dollars. I was
going to mail you the particulars and
she would pay you.' One of thoSe
vii-
to.rs of hers has offered me a place on
his big Cattle ranch in Texas -4 was go-
ing there. Y-ou have had four years of
misery—the money would pay you a
little and you could go home—I would
not trouble you any more—wrote this in
a letter."
Can I see it, Clem ?I'
"it was carried off in any coat—pro-
bably on its way down the Platte now—
letter was hard to write—nearly broke
my heart—told Olsen to look out for
you --was going to send the teem back,
so you could gback all right --came
down Dry Creek Canon—afraid I'd meet
Mrs. Prance and her crowd." He spoke
in quick, jerky sentences, looking at my
treasures; he turned them over in his
hand and looked up at me, " Fifteen
dollars, the photograph of a man who
ruined your life, and—and a dead baby's
shoe. wonder if the Pilgrim entered
the gates of Paradise with so light a
load
Clem," I cried, "it is Heaven now
if you will love me and forgive me."
He jumped -up and took me in his
arras. Miserable cowards that we
were, Molly, running away from each
other, too silly and proud to tell each
other the truth. Shall webegin all over
again—let me win you once more and
keep you, pet?"
It did not seem like sober, indifferent
Clem at all, this eager, passionate lover.
It was very dear to me too, I had atary-
ed for love so long.
"And you will take me to Texas?" I
said.
"Of course," he laughed, " we are
just married, are we not? and no more
ranches for me of my 01.4111 ; somebody
el se can do .he work, It's beyond Illi two.
We don't want tobc rich, we want to
be happy."
While vie stood there hand -in hand,
,
like two young lovers, we heard a loud
rattling and there caMe Olsen and Mrs.
Bohm, driving at full speed across th,e
1
prairie. - Mrs. Bohm had come over to
1
spend the day with le and then Olsen
knew I was gone some other way. Elle
liorrowed her team and went to find Me.
He tracked my steps to the Cann and
the Mable tracks acrogs the mud tO the
ranch; Luckily he had missed, the
flood. .
"My Nide is going to Texas with me,"
said Cleat proudly. The dear fellow
had suffered, knowing Olsen knew how
unhappy we. _were.
"That is good," said Olsen in his slow
way, " f r Mrs. Bohm and me are agreed
id not go with
to get m rried, and I co
you."
Later, Clem and Olse
wagon and hitched our 1 orses ahead of
Mrs. Bohm's team. We had quite a
procession. M. Bohm sat with Olsen
in the front seat, and Clem sitting be-
hind with are, insisted on wrapping a
blanket about- me and holding it too.
He'had given me back my treasures ex-
cept the little worn shoe. He kept that
"to remind him," he said, but he would
.not saY any more. Men's feelings are
buried deeper than -women's, and I
have le rued to know that only in times
of gre t trouble and danger are the
depths of Clem's nature roUsed into
motion.
The unlight flamed out red and gold-
en 'behind the foothills, the sky was
glowing with glorious color, the cloud-
bursts of Dry Creek Canon and of our
lives w re over. Nature and love laugh-
ed aga-iji in the sunlight:

Mormondore with. the idea of extermina-

heart was Wiser than my head. I warm-

-pathetically 'homely' creatures, and as
I turned to hide the generous moisture
in my eyes, I said 'No; the man that

Christian charty 'which entitles him to
the kindly applause of mankind—not

—Some years ago, when I was one of
the big laddie.s at a parish school not a
hundred miles from Cupar, I was
deputed by the schoolmaster to " hear "
a class of the little ones. The class con-
sisted of two—a boy and girl—and the
girl was a ploughman's daughter. The
reading was -L-- Tom has got a hen,"
and such like words of three letters; -I
asked the boy: to spell "hen," an,
after he had done so, asked him what a
hen was. He answered, "It's jist
hen ?" The girl during this time was
holding out her hand in a state of great
excitement, indicating that she had
another and more correct answer to give,

The Drummer's Best Girl.
He hurried up to the office as soon as
he entered the hotel, and, without wait-
ing to register, inquired eagerly :
" Any letters for me ?"
The clerk sorted over a package with
the 'negligent attention that comes of
practice, then flipped ode—a very small
Oue—on the counter.
The traveling man took it with a
Curious smile that twisted his pleasant -
looking face into a mask of expectancy.
He smiled more as he read it. Then
oblivious of other travelers who jostled
him, he laid it tenderly against his lips
and actually kissed it. -
A loud guffaw startled him.
*" Now, look here, old fellow," said a
loud voice, " that won't do, you know.
Too 'spooncy for anything. Confess,
riow, your wife didn't *rite that letter."
. " No, she didn't," said the traveling
man, 'with an amazed lOok,as if he would
-like to chaege the subjtct. "That let --
ter is from my best girl."
-
The admission was so unexpected that
the trio of friends who had caught him,
said no more uutil after they had eTstan
a good dinner and were seated together
in a chum's room.
Then they began to badger ,him.
"It's no use, you've got to read it to
us,' Dick," said one of them ; " we want
to know all about your best girl."
"So you shall," said Dick, with great
coolness; "I will give you the letter
and you can read it yourselves. There
it is," and he laid it open on the table.
"I guess not," said the one who had
been the loudest in demanding it ; " We
like to chaff a little, but I hope we are
gentlemen. The young lady would
hardly care to have her letter read by
thie crowd," and he looked reproachful-
ly at his friend.
'But I insist upon it,'' was the an-
swer. " There is nothing in it to be'
ashamed of—except the spelling: that
is a little shaky, I'll admit, but she
.won't care in the least. Read it,H.ardy,
and judge for yourself."
Thus urged, Hardy took up the letter*
shamefacedly enough, and read it.
There were only a few words. Then
he swallowed suspiciously, and as he fin-
ished it, threw it on the table again,
and rubbed the back of his hand across
his eyes as if troubled: by dimness of
vision.
" Pshaw,"-he said, " If I had a love -
letter like that—" aud. then he was
"Fair Play !" cried one of the others,
with an uneasy laugh.
" I'll read it to you, boys," said their
friend, seeing they made no move to take
it," and I think you'll agree With me
that it's a model love -letter." I

, —The poultry show held last week in
8tratford was very successful in theex-
hibition of fine specimens of well-bred
poultry.- In addition to a host of city
and county exhibitors twenty-five or
thirty of the towns and cities of. Ontario
were repreaanted, ranging between Sar-
nia and Toronto. Among the Perth ex-
hibitors outside of Stratford the pens of
light Brahmas shown by Mr, R. Fergu-

special notice. That gentleman has

—During morning service. in Mails
street Methodist church, Mitchell, on
Sunday, 15th inst., the cry that the
building was on fire was raised, when
the whole congregation became wildly
excited and were on theverge of a• panic.
A aash was made for thealoors, and one
lady tumbled down stairs, while another
was nearly crowded through a window.
All -got out safely, however,- when the
roof -of the basement was found to be in
flames, having caught from the furnace.
Quite a. hole was burned, but the dam-
age was light. Had it not been noticed
when it was the massive and costly
building would certainly have been ser-
iously damaged, if not ruined. • .

"Did n't Know 't was
Loaded"
May do for a stupid hoe 'e xeuse hat
what can be said for the parent who
sees his child languishing daily and fails
to recognize the want of a tonic and
blood -purifier? Formerly, a course tg. -
bitters, or sulph; .7 and molasses, was the
rule in well -regulated families ; but now
all intelligent households keep Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, which is at once pleaSalet
to the taste, and the most searching and
effective blood medicine ever discovered.'
Nathan S. Cleveland, 27 It. Catiton
Boston, writes : " My daughter, now 21
years old, was in perfect health until a
year ago when she began to complain of
fatigue, headache, debility, dizziness,
indigestion, and loss of appetite. I iton-
elnded that all her com plaint s originated
hi impure blood, and induced her to take
rhis medicine soon
Ayer's Sarsailarilla
restored leer bleodenakirig organa to
healthy acti(rn. and in due time reestab-
lished her former health. I find Ayer's
