The Lawyer's Secret.
It was in a luxuriously furnished room, where a glowing grate threw genial light and warmth upou the occupants, that Oeneral Langton, lawyer and millionaire. listened with bated breath and pallid cheeks to a low and melodious voice that told a story of a life.
TJie speaker, a beautiful woman of about thirty, yet ten years younger than Mr. Langtou, reclined iu a low, cushioned cliair, her "attitude bespeaking the ease which wealth gives, but her face was full of the deepest anguish as her lips re¬ counted tiJie stoiy.
"You love me," she said gently, yet sadly, "and I love you as I never loved any one before, althou^^h I am a widow. Tliat you knew, but did not know my husband's name. By my uncle's last re¬ quest I dropped it and took his with the property he left me. Do not look at me tenderly, Gerald, do not shake my voice or my heart, for wheu you know who I
"Day after day the request was renewed but I would not yield. Upon my mar¬ riage, Uncle Ricliard had sold his city residence and took up a permanent abode at Grassbank, wliere, kuowing ray hus¬ band to be an unwelcome guest, 1 never visleed him. I wrote occasionally, but tlie love of years, like that of fatiier and child, had been so sadly strained by my persistence iu marrying Alexander that even our correspondence was languid and commonplace.
"I would not, therefore, write to him to ask a favor that I knew wouldnot have been necessary without criminal reckless¬ ness of expenditure, and each refusal made my husband more furious. Then came au overwhelming blow. Alexander forged a check, and drew £2,000 of Uncle Richard's money from the bank. I tlon't think my uncle would have prosecuted him, had he guessed who was the forger ; but he handed the whole matter over to the law as soon as it was discovered that the check was forged.   It was then traced
am you will not repeat the offer you made ij^^, Alexander, and at the same time it ine, and which heaven is my witness I  ^yas found that he had robbed in thesame
tried to avert.''
"Let your conscience be at rest there," said her listener, in a grave yet tender voice; '-you have never given me one hope, Maude. By what instinct I knew tliat you loved me I can never tell—some- thing ill your eyes, some tone of your voice betrayed you. If, as you say, some- tliiiig in your past life does separate us, you have been no coquet to torment me But, Maude, tell me
way his former employers. lie had given up all work on his marriage; but wiien he found himself without money, his knowledge of the business enabled him to forge the note of Lerkiss & Co. Even if Uncle Uichard had spared liiin for my sake other forgery would have entitled him to penal servitude. He was senten¬ ced to seven years, and Uncle took me home full of heavenly pity and forgive¬ ness for tlie child who had treated him so
"Then your liusband is in prison ?"'said Gerald in a Iiard, strained voice.
"No, no, he is dead ! He died within liitt year. Uncle Uichard saw the death iu a pai)er and sent the money for

"I love you," she said gravely, "and it is because I love you that I will not let you link your honorable name with that! y,g

"But nmie tlie less," quoted Garald, "the woman I honor and love above all otheis. and hope still to make my wife." It took, however, more than one inter¬ view,   full   of   love's   pleading,  to   win : ^[aude   from   her   resolution.   She   so fvcry girl  on the  grounds thought sl«e | honored her lover, and was so proud of had cui.tivated him, his attentions were; j^j^ ^^,^,,,1 j^.^,^j^ .^„j ,.,,y position he had

ing at Gnvssbank. Uncle Richard has a country seat near the village. I first met Alexander at a picnic, where he was the very life of the party, everybody's cava- iier, courteous to all, full of wit and animation and service to all.    I believe
ij.) well dividend and vet so impressive lo each one. He claimed to be no more than n .salesman in a large wholesale house witli a good salary, but he had the man¬ ners of a geutlemau of good education, <inil the most i>erl"ect beauty of face and form that I ever .saw in a man. It was not long before it was evident lie wished to will my love, and he had an e;i.sy task. ;Such love as a child of sixteen can give I gave him. He was the imper.sonatiou of i'very hero of poetry and (iction with whom my limi'^ed reading had made me Jamiliar. School girl like, L had made an ideal hero, and lilted this, my tir.-it admirer, with all his imaginary perfections
naUire shrank from even the shadow of her misery upon his life.
But the victoiy was won at last, and the lawyer w dkel home oue evening full of a proud, gl.id joy, for Maude iiad tlien promised to be his wife.
"If ymi are willing to take Alexander Hull's widow to be your wife," she said, ••1 will not ojipose you any longer, for I love you with all my heart."
He liad no thought but of that glad triumph when he turned up the gas in his otlice. He was iu the habit ol making a last visit there before going up to his

From the iirst Uncle Richard disliked ¦ bed-room, in case notes or messages were him, pronouncing him false and shallow, j left for him.   One lay there ou this even-
ixnd asHuring me that my personal attiac tions had not won his heart; but the fact -of my being an lieiress to the large pro¬ perty liad gained me the protestations iu which I so tirmly believed.
"It is a painful story to me now, Gerald. Let it sullice that I had lived in a world of pleasant dreams while Alex¬ ander remained at Grassbank. When he left me he carried my promise to be his wife at Christmas. 1 think if my money Jiad depended on Uncle Richard my mar- liage might have been prevented by his threatening to disinherit me, bnt both from my fatiier and mother I had inheri¬ ted money that made me independent in pecuniary sense of his control or consent, after searching inquiry about Alexander, resulting in no worse report than that his employers thought him fast, idle and just the man to be a fortune hunter^; Even then my dear uncle would have protected my fortune by settling it upon myself; but with the reckless generosity •of extreme youth, I refused to liave this <lone. Never, I was fumly conviueed, would my adored Alexander wionj; rae iu any wav.
"For a year after tlie splendid wedding that made me Alexander's wife I was 3iai)py. 1 was too ignorant of value lo uudersland that we were living far be¬ yond our income, enjoyed in the utmost
the luxuries  around mo—the constant. i...„,io wi.ite -nul
gayety that was in such strong contrast j'""^-^^^''^ ^^"Itless   las 1''^" ^^J;"^^' ^« ' ' to the school routine from which 1 had ! ^"-^^"'^J looking.    He arose from ins seat
ing, a shabby looking euveh»pe, but di reeled in a bold, handsome hand, which ho recognized at once.   He   tore  it open. After a few words of introduction the note ran :
"You did the best you could on my trial, but the facts were too strong for you. I have now a last favor to ask of you. I die, as you Know, at noon, to¬ morrow. You as my lawyer cau see me at any time. Will you come as soon as you receive this and win the gratitude of the man you know as James Fox ?"
"The mail I know as James Fox," muttered the lawyer; "the smooth, plausible scoundrel who actually made me believe him innocent of the hideous mur¬ der for which he was convicted. 1 can find extenuation for some murderers, bnt this cold-blooded assassination of an old man for money only was revolting. How he deceived me, though for a time, and how he exulted over his success in doing so when he saw facts were too strong. Shall 1 go to him? I suppose I must. It is still very early."
It was not yet midnight when Gerald Langlon was ushered into the cell of the man wlio, in a few short hours, was to meet the extreme penalty of ilie law for the worst of all crimes.
Yet there was nothing revoltini: in the appearance of the criminal. His dress was neit, his hair carefully arranged, his
been released.
"Then began a life of neglect, often of (piarreling, when I objected to my 1ms-
ui)on the bed as his lawyer eutered the cell. "I knew you would come," he said.

studies, especially language aud music. I  was   fond, too fond, of    water-color
painting, and made presents to my friends of specimens of my skill in tliat line.
"It was four years after my marriage, when I was tliunder-struck by Alexander asking me to request a loan of money from Uncle Richard, with tho informa¬ tion that every penny of my property was gone.
"Since then 1 have know that a large 4)ortiou of it was lost at the gaming table.
"Long before this I had lost all love for
"Not if I   can grant it," was tiie re¬ ply-
"This," said the murderer, "is not my first offense against the law. Some years ago I was sentenced to a term of years for forgery. Ry a strange accident I escaped the penalty. Ou the same day James Fox was sentenced to two years for petic lar¬ ceny, and we were sent together to prison. James Fox—my companion, understand notmyself—was deranged, but his lawyers had not been able to save him, as his aberration was not always apparent. When we were entered upon the books of
my husband. Respect had died out when i the prison, imagine my amazement wnen I knew the dissipated life he was leading, my fellow prisoner gave my name for his and foolish as I was I could not continue own.   Like a flisli I saw the advantage
to love a man whose actions were so des- 4iicable. I lefusid the errand, and brought down a torrent of such great abuse that I really expected that Alex- >*»der would end by striking rae,'
to be gained by the deception, and allowed the error to pass. My companion com¬ mitted suicide, aud I escaped with two year's imprison ment instead of seven. But I feared recognition, and went to Canada.
There I lived by my wits until a year .ago when I yetumed to try to raise money for my wife, and thought I saw an easier plan by committing the crime for which I die to-morrow. But I want to see my, wife. I wronged her—I robbed her—but heaven is witness I love her. When 1 was in prison she dropped my name aud took her own again. 8o it is not for Mrs. Alexander Hull you must ask, but for Mrs. Maude Temple."
Was the room reeling—the ceiling fall¬ ing—the wall closing around him ':* Ger¬ ald Langton felt as if they were as the name fell upon his ear. Maude—his Maude—the wife of this cool villain who talked of his hideous crimes as if they were ordinary events V Well, he knew tli:it to carry this man's message was to separate himself from Maude forever. Never would she let him marry the witlow of a murderer. Very rapidly all the terrible facts passed, one after the other, and he said : -'If you love her why add a misery to her life? She may live down the old pain you caused her ; why, for a seltish gratification, will you make her whole life a misery ":"'
"She was my wife. I would bid her farewell."
"She is not your wife. Your own crimes have released her from any allegiance to you."
"You know her ?"
"Yes. I know what she has suffered, and beg of you to let her still believe you died years ago ."
"She is happy ?"
"Scarcely that. Such wounds as herg never heal entirely, but it is cruelty to tear tliem open when they are quiet."
"Has she married '¦*"
"No.   She is still your widow."
"It is hard to deny myself oue more sight of her face, and the hopa I had that she would say she forgave me,"
••Think of her, not yourself."
There was a long silence in the cell.
Every  throb   of    Gerald    Langton's
heart was pain to iiim, but Alexander Hull sat fn m lody silence, evidently reluctant to give np his AVish.
At last he spoke.
"You have been very good to me. Tell me, now, if you have any personal reason for your reciuest. Ftjrhap.i you love her':"'
"I do," was th(! brief reply. "S'le has promised to be my wife."
"Tlien it will be James Fox who is hau.Aed to marrow. I meant to'give;iny real name, but 1 will carry my s -.cret to my grave. It may be in another world that the littK^ last self-denial will b;a plea for me. (Jo novv. You may trust me."
He kept his word, and Gerald Langton his .secret.
When ilaude, a few weeks later, be¬ came his wife, she little guessed the terrible ordeal vvhich he had spared her, or the added di.sgraee that belonged to the name she had given up.

A Touch Customer for Editors.
"Thar was true grit in that little cuss," remarked old Rob, recurring to the com¬ bat with Maguire,"and the biggest rough in the territory gave him a wide berth. As fur me, I know'd all the time what kind of stuff he was made of. Maybe I warn't down to 'Frisco wlien Hicks Graham fought the great filibuster, Wal¬ ker. He was a youngster, then, working as clerk in a law olHce near the Plazer. Walker had a newspaper and used ter pitch inter everybody redhot. Nobody liked to tackle him, for somehow or other he had got the reputation of the gamest mau that ever came to Californy. Well, one day Walker's paper made an allfired savage attack ou an old friend of little Graham's, who held an otlice there, and the youngster went right off and writ the worst kind of a letter to the fighting editor, calling him a coward, a liar and everything else. Of course, thar was bound to be a fight, and the old question about North and South got mixed up in it, too. Yer see, Walker was a regular Southern tire-eater, and the young bloods from the .South rallied around him as their champion. When it was known that little Hicks was to liglit the famous duellist, peojile just smiled for pity of the poor yoiuig fellow who was a-throwiu' of his life away. But he fit him -c\ll the same, and showed that Williams Walker met his match when he met Will Hicks Graham. The duel was talked about all over town, and a terrible big crowd went out to see the fun. Walker was just as game as Graham, but he couldn't shoot worth a cent, and the end of it was that the Pennsylviania boy shot him so bad that the surgeon said he couldn't liye an hour. But Wa'.ker pulled Uirough as you all know, and afterwards became a great filibuster.
"And that wasn't the only fi.jht Hicks Graham had in 'Frisco. Another of them editor chaps,.named Frank Lemon, got after him on the street one day, knocked the spunky little cuss down, and shot nearly all the teeth out of his head. I tell ye, boys, it's a pretty close call when a feller gets yer down, and then jams a pistol inter yer inoutli and teches it off. Everybody thought it was all up with Graham that day. But got 'round again, although badly shot in two places. And would ye believed it, 'fore he was half well, and while toting his left arm in a sling, Graham challenged Lemon to a duel ito the death.   They fought, it 'pears to
me, near  Benisha,   and   this time  the tables war turned, and the big feller didn't have   everything   his   own   way.   Like Walker, Lemon was a brave man, but he had met his match.   By the terms of the duel, proposed and insisted upon by Gra¬ ham they were to fight to the death.   At the first fire nobody was hurt and friends tried to make it up betwixt 'em, but 'twas no use.   Both insisted on fighting, and at the second fire Graham shot him through and through.   Dr. Hitchcock sed it was all over with Frank Lemon and so Gra¬ ham left the ground.   He got well how- somever, after a long spell of sickness, and just so soon us he got round again Graham sent another challenge.   Friends interfered with better luck this time and the trouble between 'm was patched up."

NO Time for It.
It is a question whether we can fairly or lionorably plead that we have no time to attend to duties. Our pleasures may be crowded out, onr plans for advance¬ ment or money-getting may not find suf¬ ficient time for their fulfilment; but if we have not time to fulfil the duties to others that our place in life demands something is wrong. Either we are doing too much needless work or we are trying to do work that justly belongs to others. It is told of Philip of Macedon that a poor old woman came to his place many times in vain to ask redressjor wrongs that had been done. After many attempts she ob¬ tained an audience with the King, only to be rebuked by him, as she had been by his attendants. "I am not at leisure to hear you," he replied, abruptly, when she began her story. "No !" svas her exclama¬ tion ; "then you are not at leisure to be a King." This view of the matter quite confounded the King. A few moments he thought upon it in silence. Then he told the old woman to go on with lier case, heard her to the end, and then gave orders that those who had wronged her should be punished, and restitution made to her. And ever after this he made it a point to listen toall applications brought before him, repeating to his courtiers, who objected to his troubling himself, the lesson that the poor woman had taught him—that if he was not at leisure to hear the jilea of his humblest subject, he was uot at leisure to be a King.

Odd Use for a Pocket.
.lust at the birvl-nesting season, the mau of th-^ house wanted a coat that he had left hanging iu a chamber but little used. When he relieved himself of the j garment hanging it beside the window he was engaged in somc^ warm work among the grain sacks, tlie window being open | for air. Tliis is the way things were left. A fortnight perhaps had passed; and when the owner went to get the coat, as he was abcmt to take it down from the nail, out came a pair of tiny wings and darted through the window. A bird had taken possession of oue the pockets. There was its silky-lined nest, aud in the nest were three tiny speckled eggs. What a surprise!
Now this man had other coats, with¬ out doubt; the bird had no other nest. What would be fair to do in such a case? As the father of some dear little children in the home, he was not long in answer¬ ing the question. Perhaps he brought the children to take just a peep at the nest and eggs, thus giving them a valu able first lesson in love for all innocent creatures, and of gentleness toward them.
He would not abuse the confidence of the dear, sociable little bird, who, had she been a paying tenant, could not have been more secure from beiug disturbed. This man managed to do without his coat, for the sake of lending her the fur¬ ther use of its pocket. And, in that conveyance, the mother-bird hatched and fed and reared her loved brood. When the little wings were enough grown, the young followed her into the beautiful world outside the chamber window, where now hung a coat with an empty nest in the pocket,— Watchman.

'•The fact is, sir, and you may stick a pin there, that the people of this" country are likely to bo drowneil in a flood of la^er beer," shouted an entliusiu.stic teetotaler the other day into the ear of your cornered correspon¬ dent, '"Thnt German drink has struck us hurd. it is the second delude.

"Theniidniglit 'schooner'leaves beliind it a wake of furreil tongues, headaches, torpid livers, nausea, and all wiat, and lays the foundation of IJright"-: Disease."
