to the west, but he didn't 6nd any of the
wonderful good luck thera that some
men do. The fact is, Hess, Tom was
always lazy! Lazy folksdon'tget along
out west! But lie is dead, my dear
been dead these ten years, acd his wife
died a week ago and left a letter for
me, asking me to befriend their only
child. She needn't come here, you see,
if yoa don't want her."
"Oh, but I do want her!" I cried.
"Have I not been longing for a sister
all my life? I do want her, papa!
I'lease scrd for her. "
"Very well, my dear. I will write
at once."
Then I rushed off to find Martha,
who is our head servant, and, 1 some
times suspect, our real housekeeper,
though she lets me have all the honors.
Martha, who had lived with my grand
mother, had known Mr. Tom, but had
thought he died long ago. She was
very willing, however, to help me in
getting one of the prettiest rooms
ready for "Miss Elizabeth," and prom
ised dainties for the feast of welcome.
At the eleventh hour papa resolved
to go himself and bring the orphan
girl to her new home, and Murtha and
1 had full scope for our hospitable
plans. It was not that 1 had anything
to do, for with our small family Martha
declared she had hird work to keep
the servants bnsy, iu spite of the size
of the house, but I liked to fuss about
and select pretty ornaments and trim
mings for my cousin's room.
Perhaps 1 threw myself into these
preparations with more energy, be
cause I had never quite recovered from
the heartache it gave me to part with
Herbert Wilson. Two years before
papa had sent him oft to seek his for
tune, and I lived meantime on the hope
of his finding it. It was a romantic
little love story, and, being so much
alone, I had suffered more than papa
knew, so I was glad to think of having
a eorar anion of my own age.
She came with papa, and rushed into
mv arms, apparently as pleased as I
was. I had pulled down my face to
express my sympathy with her recent
less but it was wasted sentiment She
did not appear to bare any feeling about
it, and longer acquaintance convinced
me that she had no depth of feeling
about anything.
But she was charming, a little, fairy
like blonde, with fluffy yellow hair,
soft bine eyes and a complexion like
strawberries and cream. I f lt gigan
tic when 1 sa our reflections in a long
mirror, for I was tall, decidedly bru
nette, and. while I was just six months
the younger, looked five years older
than the child-like little butterfly.
It was pretty to see how she enjoyed
the luxuries about her. the dainty food,
the cozy ami chairs, and, above all, the
idleness. Poor little mitel She had
faced poverty ever t oca she was bo:n,
and she enjoyed OPinfort M much u a

one came a little box, such as I had
twice 1 cfore opened. And on the pink
cotton a dainty- crystal ejf. Two lay
in my jewel box; one with a tiny
locket, one with a g'olden cross inside.
I opened this one. My heart pave one
sh-kenin-; throb and the whole room
seemed to reel about me- U'h;'n my
sijrht was once more clear, I saw on
the pretty niuk cotton the rinjr I had
(fiven Herbert Wilson. There could be
no mistake. There it lay, ruock n me
with its tiny clasped hands and en
twined initials. He was faNe to me.
Some fairer face had won his heart,
and he had sent my ring back to ine.
It had never been my habit to show
my ftclinjrs on any occasion, so I closed
lip the pretty crystal ejr, locked it
away in my jewel box, and went down
todinaer. Father noticed that 1 was
ery pale, but accepted a trifling head
ache as an excuse, and Eizzie made no
comment. She was deep in the stndy
of our visiting list, and adding a few
cards to those already sent out.
The next week was all a whirl.
Somehow 1 did man ace to push bak

very busy, and only at night could I
let my sorrow have its way. How
much I had loved, how perfectly I had
trusted Herbert, I learned in those
days when all ray love and trust
seemed thrnst back upon my own
heait The last drop was added to my
cop of misery the very day before
lizzie's wedding. Father came home
earlier than U3ual, and came to my
oom.
"Bessie, my dear,4 he said. "I heard

a religious fe; st, but a festival of na
ture as well. It teds of the uomlcrful
resurrect iou of Christ; but it toils also
of renewed life throughout all the
land. The earth is alout to en mo forth
in 3,1 ,,er
and the hearts of the
people are glad for lh5 promise of
verdure, of (lowers and of fruit to
come.
So it is th.it the giving of gifts at this
blessed season of renewed life has a
special meanin-r, and so -it would seem
that the gifts should be road : to con
vey some message well suited to the
time. Cards on which appropriate
sentiments are either written or en
graved are always acceptable at
Easter, as they are at all other seasons
to which special importance may be at
tached, and nuinleriess devices and de
signs are to be seen on every side, ltut
as the spirit of giving has seized upon
the popular mind, the card of to-day is
only the attendant of the gift itself. It
may be simple in the extreme, or elab
orate, as the purse of the sender al
lows but in nearly every case it 'is an
adjunct only, and has censed to be ia
itself an object of consideration.
(lifts are a recognized feature of
Easter as they arc of Christmastidc,
and it remains only to the lover of
order and moderation in nil things to
keep the spirit of giving within certain
limits and to make the Easter gift a
tiling all of j y, both in the giving ami
receiving.

A POOR JURYMAN.

Althbngn 'Judges nnd lawyers are
often capital story tellers on social oc

grave judicial matters. Now and then,
however, stid Joke will pop ont in

Some years ago in fvockport, in the
supreme court, one day when Judge
Barker was presiding, one juryman was
absent from his scat, but the others'
chairs were occupied. A dog who
strayed into the courtroom looking for
his master quietly jumped into the va
cant place, and made himself comforta

"You see, Mr. Lanning, that the jury
men's seats are now all occupied. Are

The distinguished pleader raised his
glasses to his eyes and after, a Unci but
comprehensive survey of the jury box.
he replied as gravely as he nad been ad

Your honor, that fellow might do
for a judge, but I should hate to trust
him for a juryman.
The good-natured Judge joined hearti

A CAT'S REMARKABLE TRIP.
The Animal Makei a Tour of the World
oa llr Own Hook.
A good cat story comes from Bombay
In August a Liverpool resident pro
ceeding to I Him bay took out with him a
cat, which he intended to present to a
friend in India- Some days after the
arrival of the steamer in Bombay pussy
was raisseu, and though she was
searched for high and low she was no
where to be found, says the Yorkshire
Ircss. Her owner had quite given her
up for lost when he received intelli
gence from England that the cat bail
made her appearance at her old Liver
pool home on October 20 as calm and
collected as thengh a trip to India and
back was quite in the ordinary course
of her life- The facts are vouched for
by a Bombay paper, and there is no rea
son to doubt their substantial accuracy;
but it is not made clear whether
thereat was not stowed away in the
steamer in which i-be went out to India
and carried back in the ordinary course.

Foyal Baking powder
Is Absolutely Pure
WHILE there are so many alum baking pow
ders in the market, the use of which all
physicians decide render the food unwholesome
and liable to produce dyspepsia and other
nilments, housekeepers should exercise the ut-.
most care to prevent any powder but the Royal
from being brought into their kitchens.
In the use of Royal there is an absolute
certainty of pure and wholesome food.
The official State Chemists report: The 1
Royal Baking Powder does not contain am
monia, alum, lime, nor any injurious ingre
dients. It is absolutely pure and wholesome.
The Government reports show all other
baking powders to coiitain impurities.
In the use of any baking powder but Royal
there is uncertainty if not actual danger.
It is unwise to taks hances in matters of
life and health.
