COMMENCEMENT DAY. OB, the story op a sister's bweet sympa ' THY. It was Commencement Day in G High School. The people were pouring in to the church as I entered it, Tather tardy Finding the choice seats in the center of the audience-room already taken, I pressed lorward, looking to the right and to the left for a vacancy. On the very front row of seats I found one. Here a little girl moved along to make room for me, looking into my face with large gray eyes, whose brightnest was soft ened uy very long lasnes. llcr tace was open and fresh as a newly blown rose be fore sunrise. Again and again I found my eyes turning to the rose-like face, and each time tho gray eyes moved, half smiling, to meet mine. Evidently the child was ready to "make up" with me. And when, with a bright smile, she returned my dropped handker chief, and I said "Thank you !" we seemed lairly introduced. Utntr persons, now coming into the scat, crowded me quite close up against the httlo girl, so that we soon felt very well acquainted. "There's going to he a great crowd," she said to me. "Yes," I replied ; "people always like to see how school-boys are made into men." Her face beamed with pleasure and pride as she said : "My brother's going to graduateo he's going to speak ; I've.brought these ; flowers to throw to him." They were not greenhouse favorites just old-fashioned domestic flowers, such aa we associate with tho dear grand mothers ; "but," I thought "they will seem sweet and beautiful to him for sister's sake." mat is my Drotner, sue went on pointing with her nosegay. "The one with the light hair?' asked. "Oh no," she said smiling and shaking ner head in innocent reproof ; "not that homely one, with red hair ; that havJ9-"ie one with brown wavy hair. His eyes look brown, too : but they are not they are dark blue. There I he's got his hand up to his head now, You see him, don't you ?" In an eager way she looked uom nie to him, and from him to me, as if some import ant tate depended upon my identifying her brother. "I sec him," I said, "lie's a very good looKing urouier. "Yes, lie is beautiful," she said, with art less delight: "and he's so good, and he stud ies so hard, He has taken euro of me ever since mamma died. Here is his name on (he programme. He is not tho valedictor ian, but he has an honor, for all that.' I saw in the little creature's familiarity with theso technical college terms that she had closely identified herself with her broth er's Btudies, hopes and successes. "lie thought, at first,,' slio continued, "that ho would write on the 'Romance of Monastic Life.'" What a strange sound theso long words had, whispered from her childish lips! Her interest in her brother's work had stamped them ou tho child b memory, and to her they were ordinary things. "But then," she wenj on, "ho decided that he would rather write on "Historical Paralleles', and he's got a real good oration, and he says it beautifully. Ho has said it to me a great many times. I 'most know it by heart. Oh t it begins so pretty and so grand. This is tho way it begins," she added, encouraged by tho interest sho must hare seen in my face : " 'Amid the permu tations and combinations of tho actors and tho forces which mako up tho great kalei doscope of history, wo often And that a turn ot Destiny's hand' " Why, bless tho baby!" I thought, look lug down Into her bright, proud face. I can't desenbo how very odd and selfish it it did seem to have thoso sonorous words rolling out of the smiling infantile mouth. The band, striking up, put an quotation and to the confidences. As tho exercises progressed, d to the and " ftp pronched nearer and neater the effort on which all her interest was concentrated, my little friend becamo excited and restless. Her eyes grow Urjrer and brighter, J wo NEW SERIES NO. 301, deep-red spots glowed oa her cheeks. She loucncu up tne flowers, manifestly making the offering ready for the shrine. 0 "Now, it's his turn," she said, turning to me a face in which pride and delight and anxiety seemed about equally mingled. But when the overture was played through, , and his name was called, the ciiild seemed, in her eagerness, to forget me and all the earth besides him. 8h rose to her feet and . leaned for ward for better view of her beloved as he mounted to the speaker's stand. I knew by her deep breathing that her heart was throbbing in her throat. I knew, too, by the way her brother came up to the steps and to the front, that he was trembling. The hands hung limp ; hia face was pallid, and the lips blue as with cold. I felt anxious. The child, too, seemed to discern that things were not well with him. Something like fear showed in her face. He made an autotomatic bow. Then a bewildered, struggling look came into hia face, then a helpless look, and then he stood staring varantiy, lik, somnambu list, at the waiting audience. The mc ments of painful suspense went by and II 1. ...... 1 - !. . . , . sun ue sioou as n struck aumo. I saw j.1? !' was; hc h'J been seized with 8t3SG- fright. Alas ! little sister I She turned her larsro. dismayed eyes upon mc. "He's forgotten it," sho said. Then' a swift changocame into her face; a strong, determined look; and on the funeral-like silence of the room broke the sweet, brave, child-voice : Amid the permutations and combina tions of the actors and the forces which make up the great kaleidoscope of history, we often find that a turn of Destiny's :,and " Every body about us turned and looked. The breathless silence ; the sweet, childish voice; the childish face; the lonar. ua- childlike words produced a weird eflect. liut the help had come too late; the un happy brother was already staggering in humiUiatioa .from the stage. The band quickly struck up, and waves of lively music were rolled out to cover the defeat. I gave the little sister a glance in which I ment to show the intense sympathy I felt; but she did not see me. Her eyes. swim. ming with tears, were on her brother's face. I put my arm around her. She was too absorbed to heed the caress and, before I could appreciate her purpose,' she was on her way to the shame-stricken young man sitting with a face like a statue's. When he saw her by his side, the set face relaxed, and a quick mist came into his eyc9. The young men got closer to gether to make room for her. She sat down bside him, laid her flowers on his knee, and slipped her hand in his. I could not keep my eyes from the sweet, pitying face. I saw her whisper to him, he bending a little to catch her words. Later, I found out that she was asking him if he knew his "piece" now, and that he answered yes. When the young man next on the list had spoken, and while the baud whs play ing, the child, to the brother's great sur prise, niadojier way up to the stage steps, .. and pressed through the throng of profes sors and trustees and distinguished visitors, up to the collego president. "If 'ou please, sir," she said with a little courtesy, "will you and the trustees let my brother try again? He knows his piece now." For a moment, the president stared at her through her gold-bowed spectacles, and then, appreciating the child's petition, he smiled ou her, and went down and1 spoke to the young man who had failed. So it happened that when the band h , again ceased playing, it was briefly an-' nounced that Sir." would now deliver his oration "Historical Parallels." "Amid the permutations and combina tions of the actors and the forces which Muke up the great kaleidoscope of his tory ." This the little sister whispered to him as he rose to answer the summons. ' A ripple ot heightened and expectant interest passed over the audience, and then all sat stone still, as though fearing to breatho lest the speaker might Hgain take fright. No danger I The hero in tho youth was aroused. He went at his "piece" with a set purpose to conquer, to redeem himself ami to bring the smile back into the child's tear-staiued face. I watched the face dur ing the speaking. The wide eyes, the parted lips, the whole rapt being said that the breathless audience was forgotten, that her spirit was moving with his. And when the address was ended with the ardent abandon of one who catches en thusiasm iu the realization that he is fight ing clown a wrong judgment and conqner ing a sympathy, the effect was really thril ling. The dignified audience broke into rapturous applause; boouets intended for the valedictorian rained like a tempest, and the child who had helped to save the dav that ono beamimr little face, in its . pride and gladness, is something to be for- , . .1 a.. ever rcmemiHTcii. furai ninrcr nei- ' 'SS .
