A MINISTER OF THE WORLD.
BY CAROLINE ATWATER MASON.

"Stephanie will recover !" This sentence
was ringing through Stephen Castl 'is brain
like bells of joy, as he Welked up a cl down
his study, his haggard face ill rnivated
again with something of the hope ajid cour-
age which had been 'absent from it for so
many days.-- Mr. Loring had just left him,
having rushed in, almotit wild with excite-
ment and the reactioiafter the suspense,
to tell him that the doctor's pronounced
that the force of StePhanie's disease had•
spent itself, and that, oceintrary to all their
expectations, her strength had endured the
terrible strain, and there was reason to
hope that she would recover. •
"They say they never saw such elastieity,
such rebound, such a superb organization."
This Mr. Loring had said to Stephen, un-
aware himself that , tears were running
down his cheeks, and he hurried away to
give an hour or two tci the business inter-
ests which for the la.st few weeks he had
utterly ignored, . . .
"Stephanie will receiver !" All that this
meant to Stepheneleirneelf he did not—he
could not—eensider. His beautiful, peerless
friend was given back to life, to the air, to
the sun, to freedom and to joy! The won-
derful radianee -of her 'smile was not to be
quenched.; -hr beauty and grace and charm
were not. to e .given to- the embrace of
death. Life, which had Seemed of late so
bare and joyl ss, now looked. bright again,
and.Stephen felt all hie pulses run full and
fast. And yet there was a swift pereeption
which :clouded his brow and steadied him in
the joyful tumult of the moment. Now,
with life and strength coming back, and the
ordinary considerations of convention as-
serting themselves, how would - a proud
woman like Stephanie feel, in remembering
the revelation of her love which she had
made to him, Stephen Castle, when she
supposed heraelf to be near the gate of
death? He felt himself growhot and cold
for her, knowing by intuitive sympathy
what she would suffer, and how shewould
shrink from the reeolleetion which he felt
sure would haunt -her day and night, even
in this time of restoration.
Hardly had this perception made itself,
clear to his consciousness when Stephen's
mind leaped to 4i, solution of the .difficulty_
the only natural -and adequate solution, he
instantly.felt. One thing only could recon-
cile Stephanie to the thought of her confes-
sion to him, betithat Min thing was suffi-
cient. It was that he should ask her to be
his wife. A Man of a different mentel.
and Moral orgariliation would have taken a
day to reflect and decide upon a .step like
this. A cautioue man .would have seen ser-
ious considerations ag„ inst it, which mu,st
1
be carefully weighed. For in -the past week
Stephen had gradually reached the point of
believing that the only svay back to his in-
tegrity as a minister of Christ lay in a com-
plete break from his present surroundings..
But all this -was imPoss ble to Stephen. • Nc
consideration of self, h Weyer just at other
times, could hold again t the instinct' of a
chivalrous nature in ,a crisis like this.
Stephanie's happiness was clouded, her re:
covery perhaps retarded by a hinniliation
from which it was in his power tosave her.
He hesitated no more to throw himself into
the breach than a knight of King Arthur's'
time would have stopped to consider his
own delay when called upon t to do battle
for a fair lady. -
Within an hour of Mr. Lbring's call, a
note was on its way to Stephanie, in which
Stephen Castle said : •
” Will e. forgive ITIQ that I do not wait,
as I ougirt, until you are stronger, but that
now in my great Joy that God is giving you
back to us, I dare to ask that to me, more
than to all others, you may be given?
"1 know, in some faint degree, I think,
how surpassingly great ,is the favor I ask.
I know, too, how unworthy I am to ask it,
but all that I am or can be is yourp if you
will take it. Do not try to write or to see
me until you are quite strong. I can be
patient, now."
A day or two passed. There was a great
Ptorm at sea, with awful shipwreck and dis-
aster. ' Stephen, restless and unable to, force
himself into any of his wonted occupations,
left the city and went out to a little settle-
ment on an exposed point of the Lona Is-
land coast to watch the effects Of the storm,
and to fight, with the men of the life-saving
station for the lives of shipWrecked sailors
Who might be washed ashore at that point.
He found something of relief in the strug-
gle of the elements; his own personal con-
flicts were lost for the time, and he seemed
to come into touch with the majestic powers
of nature, which even in their moat terrible
manifestations can quiet the fever and pas-
sion of the human heart.
Returning late a,t night to his apartment,
helound in a pile of letters waiting for hina
not the one he half expected from Stephan-
ie but one from Emily Merle, asking him
when he came to Thornton to bring her a
certain book which she had sent for in vain
to different bcioksellers.
_
_
Stephen Ptafted to his feet in consterna-
tion. Thornton! To be sure, he was under
engagement to go to Thornton the fifth of
J unee to attend Waldo's1 ordination. The
experiences and excitemerits of the last six
weeks had entirely driven the matter from -
his mind, and now it was the fourth of
June. His ordination sermon had not even
been thought of, the arrangements for his.
absence were not made, and yet he must
start at seven o'clock the next morning;
even then it- was doubtful whether he could
reach Thornton, which was not on the main
line of railroad, the same night.
Stephen turned the leaves of his calendar.
Yes, there was no room for doubt in the
matter; he had written "Thornton" across
the spaces occupied byethe next three days.
When he had written it the tiine had seen -id
far away. How distinctly it all came back
to him now; it was the night at Mrs. Peter -
sham's, the night he had last nen Stephanie
Loring in health, the evening he had heard
of Aunt Eliza'r death. There was no time
new to be spent in meditation. He must
make ready for his journey. Fortunately
the book which Emily wanted was in his
own library. It went first into hie gripsack,
which he at once proceeded te pack, throw-
ing in another book or two to help him in
working up his sermon, which he must pre-
pare on the cars. Then he wrote hail a
dozen hasty notes, arranging for different
appointments to be met during his Osence ;
among them was one to Lloyd Petersham,
asking him to explain his sudden departure
fully to the Lorin0,. and to attend to the
immediate forwarding of any letters which
might come to him the next day. Having
_done all these things, Stephen ordered his
breakfast for six o'clock, and lay down for a
few hours sleep.
At eight o'clock the next eveeing a train,
evidently impatient at the necessity, slowed

Stephen ran up the long ight of steps
the ofithe hill, and struck out on t
road -which Iran between clover -fields up
the village. It was twilight, and the gres
path by the roadside, along which:
walked, was wet with dew. The wh
farmhouses, each with its company of bar
red or ochre oaunpainted gray, lay .in! u
broken silence, with broad meadows 'a
orchards between. The air was pure
crystal, and sweet with the breath 61 ma
blossoms. How stilla was ! His own foci
steps were the only sound except the ri-p
of the brook as it ran beside the road, !ae.
under the old bridge. The clear w -at
broke in shallow cascades over; the e
brown stones, rust as -it used in the WC
old time when he was wont to come the
Saturday afternoons for the rest and cooli
of its music. And the man the boy rathe
eager and free -hearted, who used to ling
there was himself, Stephen Castle r who no

pain and a bitter sense of failure ever wit
him. Of course there came the longing

this was impossible as well- as useless. Ti
time for peace and repose in . his life yv
ever, until old age should bring it back 'pe
chance; he was in the years of conflict -nos
and must endure hardness as a soldier. '
Stephen left the bridge and passed on 'b
the familiar path. He had reached a farm
house now -where:he had always been a we
come guest. He noticed with a smiles
pleasure, as he passediche hayfields, tha
the crop m as large and fine. The old saeis
faction which he used to share with th
Thornton people in "a good year" cam
back to him. No one was in sight abou
the house. He was glad and sorry too. H
was not quite ready as yet to meet hi
Thornton friends, and yet he longed fo
Such an old-fashioned grasp of the hand a
he knew was ready for him. Up the h:il
now and past the parsonage, but the dusk
was deepening, and the house could hardly
be seen among its vines and bushes of Mee
and syringe,. There was a light in the mid-
dle room. Stephen supposed Waldo wes
there. He wondered if he were to be mar-
ried, or whether he would live with a sister
or with his mother as he had done. , The
fragrance of the lo ust blossoms, high in the
dark above his hea , came to him with the
mysterious power ver memory -which odors

ceiolling draught in is fever and pain, Steph-
eri
felt the girl's resencee What would

t ey called it--the-orld in which he had

8ho was busy With flowers and ferns, and
moved about quietly but with evident ab-
sorption in her worl sometimes stepping
back a few paces to i ote the effect, .then re-
turning -to lift a vine o turn a flower with
dainty touch. All r attitudes were un-

seriousness in her fa e and .a womanly dig-

ly through the e pt church.
A young girl new ame into the circle of
light around the nil eit, and Stephen saw
that her hands w re ull of tall ferns, which
she gave to Emil .
Five, ten rninu es passed as if in a dream
to Stephen alone n is shadowed place, and
memories of his y ut ful ministry clustered
cloSe about him. Th dark church, with its
one little circle of light, which seemed
strangely far awe , tie grotesque shadows
cast by the single la np, the quiet voices
and movements f he two girls as they
handled the ferns wh se shadows were like
trees as they fli tec across the walla, all
made up an imprezsi n of unreality, and he
ceased to know •r ire where he was or
why he was, there. Presently he heard a
voice say :
"1 weeder if be wi I be the same ?"
It was Emily M He's voice which an-
swered :
"No, he is not the same.”
"Do you mean tha he has grown 'proud
and will look down pon people like US ?"
the voice asked again
"No,not that; h. could never be like
that. is heart is s true as eteel. You
will find him kiuder t an ever, and interest-
ed in us as he used to be. But after all it is
different." There wa a little silence, and
then Emily Merle ad ed "He does not belo g to us any more, you
sce, a d be never can gain." .
Ste hen was awake now and alive to the
fact hat it was he f whom . they were
speaking. Wae it th *distance; or was he
right in thinking the there was a pathetic
note in Emily's voice, an undertone of sad-
ness? An impulse h could hardly control
swept over him to g to her that moment
and look into her face and tell , her that he
did belong to her, a d to her only. He
kneev itnowand und rstood what had kept
him all these years Ir in other love. Then,
even as he had risen i ipulsively and stood
in the dark uhadoWs of the gallery, as if
doubting what to de, a sudden recollection
came to him, and nbis lesely as he had en-
tered it . he left the church and came out
alone into the summe night. •

He was not ready yet to go into the par-
sonage and find Waldo and explain his
presence in Thornton to -night; He would
rather- walk on. A few steps more and he
saw a faint light shining through the win-
dows at the farther end of the church. Per-
haps he could slip in unobserved and have a
few moments alone in the stillness there to
calm and collect himself. The door was
closed, but opened readily when he tried it,
and he found no t one in the narrow vesti-
bule, which was unlighted. He knew his
way well, and in a moment had climbed thp
steep stairs to the choir gallery, the door of
which he cautiously opened. The church
was dark except for one lamp on the com-
munion table at the opposite end. Unseen,
he entered the gallery and Sat down: in the
shadow of the organ. .
At first he thought there might be n9
one in the building but himself, but an in+
stant later he perceived that a woman'e
form was bending over some jars of flowers
near the pulpit, and suddenly, as abe lifted
her head, and the light of the lamp struck
upward on her face, he recognized Emily'
Merle. His heart gave a great leap of joy,
and a strange warmth and comfort and re-
lease from pain seemed to flow through hie
consciousness. What power ef healing and
uplift lay in a womanhood So strong and
steadfast—in a nature while had never

Thet is the right quotation, but the word

Remember - that Roger Sherman and
Henry Wilsou began life at this humble
trade, and in the end were honored by the
State and Nation.
Naturally, after I becalme acquainted With
this gentlemanly shoemaker, I asked about
the big sign. He told Me he used to be a
big shoe manufacturer, eoployine a number
of men. He found thet the men did not
take pride in their work, 1 and he decided to
call their attention toi the men who by
faithful service at their trade and attention
to their duties as citizen, won high places
in the eyes of men. Roger Sherman was
one of a committee of fiv to draft the De-
claration of Independenc , and one of its
signers. Henry Wilson was then son of a
farmer in New Hampshire. He Was elected
to the State Senate, th n to the United
States Senate. He ,wa an anti -slavery

The Old Lady Too1 Her Knitting

Commend us to the old lady in Roches-

cessfal means of collecting her house rent
last week. She was an old lady of ideas,
and a knowledge of hurran nature gleaned
from a lifetime of ex erience with the
world. She Owned a iouse and lot in
Rochester, and the inco e from it Was the

parently embarrassed or ready money.
Two months' rent was dr e, and. the agent
was not able to collect.
The old lady said it s as simple enough.
She would collect it erself. Now, she
wasn't a stylish or an ar istic old lady, but
she was sturdy and imp rturbable, and her
proportions were ample nd- her spirit Un-
faltering. She rang the d or bell at an ea..ely
hour the other morning, and inquired for
the head of the family. Phe servant glow-

England's Good! 0111 Man.
Here is a new story abeut Mr. Gladstone E
A young and absolutelyi nknown man was
studying in the British useum with a view
to publishing a book on Homer. Time after
time he went there and fiaund that the very
work he most wanted for reference was be-
ing used by Mr. Gladstone. But one day
he succeeded in getting it before Mr. Glad-
stone arrived. When the right honorable
gentleman heard who had the .book he made
inquiries concerning him, and finally, sent
for him to a private room'. They were, of
course, total strangers, but nevertheless
Mr. Gladstone sat down and talked to the
young man for an hour or more, giving him
great help and many invaluable hints. The
young man said that Mr. , Gladstone talked
as if he had been etudYing nothing _ but
Homer all his life.
