They had been eleven winters in Rome, alwaysmean- ing to return, but, staying on from year to year, m people, do Who have nothing definite to calitthem home. Towards the last glidiss Kilburn taeitly gave up the expectation of getting her father away, though they both, continued to say that they were going to. take pssmse as soon as the weather was settled in.the spring. At the date they had talked of for sidling he was lying in the Protestant cemetery, and she was trying to gather herself together, and adjust her life to his lose. This would have been easier with a younger person, for she had been her father's pet so long, and then had taken eare of his heIpleraness with a devotion which was finally acemotherlyr that it was like losing at one a giarent, and a child when he died, and she reMained with the habit of giving herself when them was mo -longer any one to receive the. self:sacrifice. He had married late, and in her thirty-first year he was eighty-three ; but the disparity of their ages, increasing toward the end through his infirmities, had not loosened for her the ties of custom and affection that bound them :he had seen him grow more and more fitfully cognizant of what they had been to eh other since her mother's death, while he grew the more tender and fond with nim. ePeople who came to con- dole with her seemed not to understand this, or else they thought it would help her to bear up if they treated her bereavement as a relief from -hopelese anxiety. They were all surprised when she told them she still meant to go home. "Why, my dear," said cne old lady, who had been away from America twenty years, "this is home ! You've lived in this apart- ment longer now than the oldest inhabitant has lived in niost American towns. What are you talking aboat ? Do you mean that you are going back to Washington ?" e" Oh, go. We were merely staying on in Washington from force of habit, after father gave up practice. I think we shall go back to the old homestead, where we've always spent our summers, ever since I can remem ber." "And where is that ?" the old lady ask- ed, with the sharpness which people be- lieve must somehow be good for a broken spirit. "It's in the interior of Massachusetts— you wouldn't know it; a place called Hat- boro'." "No, I certainly shouldn't," said the lady, with superiority. "Why Hatboro', of all the ridiculous reasons ?" It was one of the first places where they began to make straw hats • it was et nickname at first, and then they adopted it. The old name was Dorchester Farms. Father fought the change, but it was of no use ; the people wouldn't have it Farms after the place began to grow ; and by that time they had got used to Hatboro'. Be, sides, I don't see how its any worse than Hatfield, in England." 'Its very American." "Oh, its Americate We have Roxboro' too, you know, in Massachusetts." "And you are going from Rome to Hat- boro', Mass.," said the old lady, trying to present the idea in the strongest light by abbreviating the name of the State. le` Yes," mid Miss Kilburn. " It will be a change, but not so much of a change as you would think: I was always very happy there, and—it was my father's wish to go back." " Ah, my dear !" cried the old "You're letting that weigh with you, I see. Don't do it ! 11 it wasn't wise, don't you suppose that the last thing he could wish you to do would be to Sacrifice Yourself to a sick whim his ?" Many times after the preparations began, add many times after they were ended,Miss Kilburn faltered in doubt of her decision; and if there had been any will stronger than her own to oppose it, she might have revers- ed it, and staid in Rome. All the way home there was a :strain of misgiving in her satisfaction it doing what she believed to be for the best, and the first sight of her native land gave her a shock of emotion which was not unmixed joy. She felt for- lorn aniong people who were coming home with all 'sorts of high expectations, while she only had high intentions. These dated back a good many years; itt fact, they dated back to the time when the. first flush of her unthinking girlhood was over, and she began to question herself as to the life she was living. It was a very -pleasant life, ostensibly. Her father had been elected from the bench to Congress, and had kept his title and his repute as a lawyer through severe' terms in the House before he settled down to the practice of his profession in the eourts at Washington, where he made a good deal of money. They passed from boarding to house -keeping, in the easy Washington way, after the imper- manent Congreafiional years, and divided their time between a comfortable little place in Nevada Circle and the old home- steed'in Hatboro'. He was fond of Wash- ington, and robustly content with the woild as he found it there and elsewhere. If his daughter's compunctions came to her through him, it must have been from some remoter ancestry ; he was not apparently BS. HAYS, Barrister, Solicitor, Conveyan.oer and Notary Public-.

She had a certain beauty of feature; she was nearsighted ; but her eyes were brown and soft, her lips red and full; her dark hair grew low; and played in little wisps and rings on her temples, where her complexion was clearest; the bold contour of her face, with its decided chin and the rather large solient nose, was like her father's g it was this,probably, that gave an impression of strength, with a wistful qualification. ° She was at that time rather thin, and it could have been seen that 'she would be handsomer when her frame had rounded out in fulfil- ment of its generous design. She opened her lips to speak, but shut them again in an effort at self-control before she said ",But,I really wish to do it. And this momeut I would rather be in Hatboro' than in Rome." "Oh, very well," said the old lady, gathering b.erself up as one does from throw- ing away one's sympathy upon an unworthy object; "11 you really wish it—" "1 know that it must seem preposterous and—and almost ungrateful that I should think of going back, when I might just as well stay. Why, I've a great many more friends here than I have there ; I suppose I shall be almost a stranger when I get there, and there's no comparison in 4mpathy and congeniality ; and yet I feel that I must so -back. I can't tell you why. But I have a longing; I feel that I must try to be of some use in the world—try to do some good —and in Hatboro' I think I shall know how.' She put on her glasses, and looked at the Old lady as if she might attempt an explanation, but, as if a clearer vision of the veteran worldling discouraged her, she did not make the effort. • ' "Oh !' said the old lady. "If you want to be of use, and do good—" She stopped, as if then there were no more to be said by a sensible person. "And shall you be going soon ?" she asked. The - idea seemed to suggest her own departure, and she rose after speaking. "Just as soon as possible," answered Miss Kilburn. Words take on a color of something more than their explicit meaning from the mood in which they are spoken : Miss Kilburn had a sense of hurrying her visitor avViin, and the old lady had a sense of being turned out-of-doors, that the pre- parations for the homeward voyage might begin instantly. 44,4 Sometimes a burglar only suc- ceeds in damaging the lock of a safe so that the combi- nation won't work. Next morning the bank officers can't get at their own tnoney. There may be millions in the safe, but if their credit depended on getting at it in a hurry they would be bankrupt, !simply because the combination won'twork. I . A sick man is in very much the same fix bout getting at the 'nourishment he needs Ito keep him alive. , There is plenty of good 'food at hand, but his digestive organism is out of order; the nutritive " combination " of his systeni won't work. He can't possi- bly get at the nourishment contained in the food. He takes it into his stomach, but it does him no good. It isn't made into good blood. lie is j net as badly off as if the food was locked up where he couldn't touch it. He gets no Strength or health out of it. All these anal- utritive conditions have a perfect and scie tific remedy in Dr. Pierce's ,Golden Medical Discovery. It puts the nu- tritive combination" of the system into perfect working order. It gives the diges- tive and blood - making organs power to make pure, red, healthy blood, and pour it into the circulation abundantly and rapidly. . It drives out all bilious poisons and scrof- ulous germs, cures indigestion, liver corn - 'plaint, nervousness and neuralgia, and builds up solid flesh, active power arid nerve force. Mrs. Rebecca P. Gardner, of Grafton, York Co, Va., writes; '1 was so sick with dyspepsia that I could not eat anything for over four months. I had to starve myself, as nothing would stay on my stomach. I was so badly off I could not eat even a cracker. I thought I was going to die. I weighed only 8o pounds. I tried almost everything, ,and nothing did me any good, until I took two .bottles of the 'Golden Medical Discovery.' I am 'now as well as I ever was, and weigh 125 pounds," characterized by their transmission, and probably she derived them from her mother, who died when she was a little girl, and of whom she had no recollection. Till he be- gan to break, after they went abroad, he had his own way in everything ; but as men grow old or infietn they fall into subjection to their women -kind ; their rude wills yield in the suppler insistence of the feminine purpose-; they take the color of the femin- ine moods and emotions '• -the cycle of life completes itself where it began, in helpless dependence upon the sex; and Rufus ,Kil- burn did not escape the common lot. He was often complaining and unlovely, as aged and ailing men must be; perhaps he was usually so ; but he had moments when he recognized the beauty ot his daughter's aspiration with a spiritualsympathy, which showed that he must always have had an intellectual perception of it. He expressed with rhetorical largeness and looseness the longing which was not very definite in her own heart, and mingled with it a strain of of homesickness poignantly simple and direct for the places, the scenes, the per- sons, the things, of his early days. As he failed more and more, his homesickness was for natural aspects which had wholly ceased to exist through modern changes and im, provements, and for people long since dead, whom he could find only in an illusion of that environment in some other world. In the pathos of this situation it was easy for his daughter to keep him ignorant of the passionategebellion against her own ideals in which he sometimes surprised herself. When he died, all counter -currents were lost in the tidal revulsion of feeling which swept her to the fulfilment of what she hoped was deepest and strongest in her nature, with shame for what she hoped was shallowest, till that moment of repulsion in which she saw the thickly roofed. and many - towered hills of Boston grow up out of the western waves. She had always regarded her soul as the battle -field of two opposite principles, the good and the bad, the high and the low. God made her, she thought, and He alone; He made everything that she was; but she would not have said that He made the evil in her. Yet her belief did not admit the existence of Creative Evil ; and so she said to herself that she herself was that evil, and she must struggle against herself ; she must question whatever she strongly ,wished because she strongly wished it. It was not logical ; she did not push her postulates to their obvious conclusions ; there was apt to be the same kind of break between her reasons and her conclusions. She acted impulsively, and from a force which she could not analyze. She indulged reveries so vivid that they seemed to weak- en and exhaust her for the grapple with realities ; the recollection of them abashed her in the presence of facts. With all this, it must not be supposed that she was morbidly introspective, that her life had been ascetic. It had been ap- parently a life of cheerful acquiescence in worldly conditions '• it had been, in some measure, a life 6f fashion, or at least of society. It had not been without the inter- ests of other girls' lives, by any means ; she had sometimes had fancies, flirtations, but she did not t hink she had been really in love, and she had refused some offers of marriage for that reason. III. The industry of making straw hats began at Hatboro', as many other industries have begun in New England, with no great local advantages, but simply because its founder happened to live there, and to believe that it would pay, There was a railroad, and labor of the sort he wanted was cheap and abundant in the village and the .outlying farms. In time the work came to be done more and more by machinery, and to be gathered into large shops. The bnildings :increased in size and number ; the single line of the rail - 'road was multiplied into four, . and in the region of the tracks several large, ugly, windowy wooden bulks grew up for shoe shops ; a stocking factory followed; yet this business activity did not warp the old village from its pictuasqueness or quiet. The railroad tracks crossed its main street; but the shops were all on one side of them, with the work -people's cottages and board-. ing-houses, and on the other were the simple, square, roomy old houses'with their white paint and their green blinds, varied by the modern color and carpentry of French -roofed villas. The old houses stood quite close to the stieet, with a strip of narrow door -yard before them ; the new mansions affected a certain depth of lawn, over which their owners personally pushed a clucking hand -mower every summer after , tea. he fences had been taken away from the ne houses, -in the taste of some of the Bostonsuburbs; they generally, remained before the old ones, whose inmate e resented the ragged effect that their absence gave the street. The irregularity hit ; hitherto been of an orderly and harmonious kind, - such as naturally follows the growth of a country road into it village throughtare. The dwellings were placed nearer or farther from the sidewalk as their builders fancied, and the elms that met in a low arch (above the street had an illusive symetry in the perspective ; they were really set at uneven intervals, and in it line that wavered ca- pfeiously ia and out. The street itself lo e 1/41 d and curved along, widening and eon cting like a river, and then suddenly lost itself over the brow of an upland Which formed a natural boundary of the village. Beyond this was South Hatboro', a group of cottages built by city people who had lately come in—idlers and iiivalidie the fernier for the cool aumnaers, and the latter, for the dry winter. At chance intervals in the old village new side streets branched from the throughfare to the right and the [ left„, and here and there a Queen Ann cottage showed its chimneys and gables on them. The roadway under the:,,elms that kept it dark and cool with 'their hoveringshade, and swept the wagotetops with their pendulous boughs at places,- was unpaved ; but the sidewalks were asphalted to the last dwell- ing - in everydirection, and they were promptly broken out in winter It the pub- lic snowplough. Miss Kilburn saw them in the spring, when their usefulness kwas least apparent, and she did not know Whether to praise the spirit of progress which showed itself in them as well as in other things at Hatboro'. She had come prepared to have misgivings, but she had promised herself to be, just ; she thought she could bear the old ugliness,if not the new. Some of the new thing, how- ever, were not so ugly ; the youlig station- master was handsomer in his railroad uni- form, and pleasanter to the eye than the veteran baggage -master, incongruous in hie stiff silk cep and his shirt alcove's and spectacles. The station itself, one of Rich- ardson's, massive and low, withred-tiled, spreading veranda roofs, impre'ssed her with its fitness, and strengthened her for encounter with the business. architecture of Hatboro', which was of the florid,' ambitious New York type, prevalent with every American town in the early stages of ita prosperity. The buildings were of pink brick, faced,with granite, and supported in the first story by columns of painted iron; flat -roofed blocks looked down over the low wooden structures of earlier Hatboro', and a large hotel had piashad back the old- time tavern, and planted itself flush upon . the sidewalk. But the stOres seemed very good, as she glanced at them from her car- riage;and their shop -windows were taste- fully arranged ;. the apothecary's had an interior of glittering neatness unsurpassed by an Italian apothecary's ; and the peovis- ion•man's, besides its symmetrical array of pendent sides and quarters indoors, had banks of fruit and vegetables without, and, a large aquarium with a spraying fountain in its window. Bolton, the farmer who had always taken care of the Kilburn place, came to meet her at the station and drive her home. _Miss Kilburn had bidden him drive slowly, so Shat she could toke in all the changes, and she noticed the new town -hall, with which she could find rid fault; the Baptist and Methodist churches were the same as of old; the Unitarian church seemed to have shrunk, as if the architecture had sympath- ized with its dwindling body of worshippers; just beyond it was the village green, with She soldiers' monument, and the tall white - painted flag -pole, and the four small braes cannon threatening the points of the com- pass at its base. "Stop a moment, Mr. Bolton," said Miss Kilburn ; and she put her head quite out of the carriage, and stared at the figure on the monument. It *as strange that the first misgiving she- could really make sure of concerning Hatboro' should relate to this figore, which she herself was mainly responsible for placing there. When the money was sub- scribed and voted for the statue, the com- mittee wrote out to her at Rome as one who would naturally feel an interest in get- tihg something fit and economical for them. She accepted the trust with zeal and pleas- ure ; but she overruled their simple notion of an American volunteer at rest, with his hands folded on the muzzle of his gun, as intolerably hackneyed and commonplace. Her conscience, she said, would not let her add another recruit to the regiment of stone soldiers standing about in that posture on She tops of pedestals all over the country, ; andso, instead of going to an Italian statu- tory with her fellow -townsmen's letter, and getting him to make the figure they Want- ed, she doubled the money and gave the commision to a young girl from :Kansas, who had come out to develop et Rome the genius recognized at Topeka.. They decided together that it would be best to have some- thing ideal, and the sculptor promptly imagined and rapidly executed a design for a winged Victory, poising on the summit of a white marble shaft, and clasping its hands under its chin, in expression of the grief that mingled with the popular exulta- tion. Miss Kilburn had her doubts while the work went on, but she silenced them with the theory that when the figure was in position it would be all right. Now that she saw it in position she wish- ed to ask Mr. Bolton what was thought of it, but she could not- nerve herself to the question. He remained silent, and she felt that he was sorry for her. "Oh, may I be very humble ; may I be helped to be very humble !" she prayed under her breath. It seemed as if she could not take her eyes from the figure ; it Was such it modern, such an American shape, so youthfully inade- quate, so simple, so.sophisticated, so like a young lady in society indecorously exposed for a tableau vivant. She wondered if the people in Hatboro' felt all this about -it ; if they realized how its' involuntary frivolity insulted the solemn memory of the slain. "Drive on, please," she said, gently. Bolton pulled the reins, and as the horses started he pointed with his whip to a church at the other side of the green. "That's the new Orthodox church,' he explained. " Oh, is it?" asked Miss Kilburn. "Its very handsome, I'm eure."- She was not sensible of admiring the large Romanesque pile very much, though it was certainly not bad, but she remembered that Bolton was a member of the Orthodox church, and she was grateful to him for not saying any- thing about the soldiers' monument. "We sold the old buildin' to the Cath- olics, and they moved it down ont' the side street." Miss Kilburn caught the glimmer of a cross where he beckoned, through the flut- ter of the foliage. "They had to razee the steeple tiome to git their cross on," he added ; and then he showed her the high school building as they passed, and the Episcopid chapel of blame- less church -warden's Gothic, half hidden by its Japanese ivy, under a branching elm, on another side street. tommlaMENIONIMPOIN YSPEPSIA CUBED BY DR.__CHASE. . .

He let the horses walk on the soft, darkly shaded road, where the wheels made .a pleasant grinding sound, and set himself sidewise on his front seat, so as to talk to Muss Kilburn more at his ease. "1 d' know," he began, after clearing his throat, with a conscious air, 4,f as you know we'd got it new minister to our church." "Io, I hadn't heard of it," said Miss Kilburn, with her mind full of the monu- ment still. " But I might have Leard and forgotten it," she added. "1 was very much taken up toward the last before I left Rome:" " Well, come to think," said Bolton; "1 don't know's you'd had time to heard. He , hain't been here a great while." - "Is he—satisfactory ?" asked Miss Kil- burn, feeling how far from satisfactory the Victory ware and formulating an ex- planatory apology to the committee in her mind. "Oh yes, he's so.tisfactory enough, as far forth as that goes. He's talented, and he's right up with the times. Yes, he's pro- gressive. I guess they got pretty tired. of Mr. Rogers, even before'he died ; and they kept the supply a goin' till—all was blue, before they could settle on anybody. In fact they couldn't seem to agree on anybody till Mr. Peck come." Miss Kilburn had got as far, in her tacit interview with the committee, as to have offered to replace at her own expenee the Victory with a Volunteer, and she seemed to be listening to Bolton with rapt atten- tion. " Well, its like this," continued the farmer. "He's progressive in his idees 'n' at the: same time he's spiritual -minded ; and BO I guess he suits pretty well all round. Of course you can't suit everybody. There's always got to be a dog in the man- ger, it don't matter where you go. But if anybody was to ask me, I should say M;. Peck suited, Yes, I don't know but wh 't I should." Miss Kilburn instaneously closed her transaction with the committee, removed the Victory, and had the VOlunteer unveil- ed with appropriate ceremonies opened with prayer by the Rev. Mr. Peck. "Peck 9" she said. "Did you tell me his name was Peck 9" "Yes, ma'am; Rev. Julius W. Peck. He's from down Penobscotport way,' in Maine. I guess he's all right. Miss Kilburn did not reply. Her mind had been taken off the monument for the moment by her dislike for the name of the new minister, and the Victory had seized the opportunity to get back. (To be continued.) • Ode to:Victoria. Written by Miss H. I. Graham, of Esmond- ville, on the occasion of the Queen'a Jubilee : • Queen of a realm whose sun ne'er sets, Proud mistress of the see, We meet with joy to celebrate These three-ecore yeare with thee ! So crowned with blessings manifold, Peace and prosperity. Let thistle, shamrock, rose entwine Tny brow most noble Queen, The lordly maple bring to thee A star of living green ; Tl t brightest jewel in thy crown, The fairest gem I wean. True type of highest womanhood, Thy subjects find in thee A tender, sympathetic heart That listens to their pies; For thou hest wept as others weep. Mid pomp and pageantry. The nations of the world admire Thy powers and thy might ; Dark Etheopia turas to thee For liberty and light, And under thy benignant sway The scales fall from her sight. Great sovereigns bring their offerings From many distant zones, Choosing thy royal family To sit upon their thrones, For every clime and hemisphere The British sceptre owns. Afar the dusky pilgrim cornea To worship at thy shrine, And India's countless treaeures flow From out her secret mine ; The forces of both land and sea To honor thee combine. Thy reign hath, like the diamond, Been lustrous and bright, As over all the earth it pours A flood of holy lied • For etrt and scienee flourishing Have chased away the night., And, in the land of liberty, Thy will hath well decreed' Thit men shall meet and worship Gad According to their need; Dwelling in peace and unity Though differing in creed. Oh 1 may this anniversary Be foretaste, -pure and sweet, Of that glut time when thou shalt lay Thy trophies 51 111. feet, And, crowned with royal diadem, In glory take thy seat. And, as the ehades of evening fall , Around the glorious day, We bless the Hand that guided thee On thy triumphant way; And pray God save our gracious Queen, From henceforth and for aye. H.
