EVEN SUPPOSE.

Even suppose that I could forget What you were, I should know you yet; Even suppose (and my hope ia this) That, bathed in the tides of an exquisite bliss, Your face has lost, through those cloudless years, The lines of trouble, the stain of tears, I shall see it then, as I see it yet, Even suppose that I could forget. Even suppose I might choose to bo Friend of an angel, it seems to me Heart's choice is once, though the flesh forget. Not knowing why, I should choose you yet, Even Euppose that I could forget. What will It be that will make you known? I claimed you once; you are still my own. A kiss, perhaps, that I left on your cheek- Where all is spirit, will kisses speak? Dead or living, I love you yet, Even suppose that I could forget. —E. M. Hewitt in Pall Mall Magazine.

THE MILL HAND'S DAUGHTER.

§C One Touch of Nature 5 ft Makes the "Whole World Kin. 2

By

W. R. ROSE.

He hadn't slept soundly. He rarely slept soundly now. It wasn't his age, surely, he was only 57; and it couldn't be his business affairs, for all his in vestments were sound and highly re munerative, and his large Income was rapidly increasing. No, he must look for the cause elsewhere. Perhaps it would be well to consult a doctor. He arose and, lighting the gas, look ed at his watch. It was half past 4. He went to a window that faced the east and raised the sash. The air came in cool and fragrant. Low down by the faraway ridge streaks of pale light were showing. "I'll see this sunrise," said Amos Brandon. "I haven't seen one since I was a boy." He hastily dressed him self and bathed his face and hands. "I'll see it from the outside," he added, and softly creeping down the stairway found his hat and opening the great door descended the stone steps that led to the street. As he faced the east and moved slow ly along the avenue he snuffed the air and found it good. He even took off his hat and let it cool his head. "It certainly seems to me that this is better than tossing on that comfortless mattress," he muttered. "Wonder why I never thought of it before?" The pale streaks in the east grew broader, a pink flush rose behind the wooded crest, the clouds became hazy. Swiftly the flush deepened, spokes of light were flung upward, and then came the sun. Amos Brandon walked slowly on ward, eagerly watching these magic changes. "Oh," he said, "that's fine. Its worth the trouble. How many people know anything about it? Precious few. Look at the present audience. One restless, lonely old man and a night watchman or two. What a shame!" He came to a street intersection and paused and looked at his watch. "Quarter after 5," he muttered. "No, I'll not go home. I feel like a runaway boy. I'll stroll down to the lake. I don't believe I've really seen the lake in a dozen years." He walked at a leisurely gait, breath ing in the tonicky air and ever and anon turning his gaze on the sun tinted clouds. His eyes were brighter and ! his step more elastic. He seemed to grow 3 rounger as he advanced. Labor ing men, swinging their dinner boxes, looked around as they passed him. His was an unusual figure at that ear ly hour. Once he heard a man repeat his tame to his companions, and they all stared curiously at him as they ; passed. As he came within sight of the lake's blue ripples a girl came across the av enue and turned in on the sidewalk just ahead of him. She was a girl of perhaps 14, rather slender, with a clear olive complexion and thick dark hair. She was neatly dressed, save her shoes, which were dingy and frayed, and in her hand she carried a basket whose contents were concealed beneath a white paper. Amos Brandon quicken ed his steps a little. "You are an early riser," he said to the girl. At the moment he was inter ested in early risers. "Yes, sir," said the girl, who showed no surprise at his abrupt remark, "I have to rise early to carry my father's breakfast to him. He Is a helper at the mills over there." She pointed to a long row of dingy buildings not far ahead. She spoke well and with a lack of constraint that the old man admired. "Why doesn't your father come home to his breakfast?" he asked. "He goes to work at midnight and quits at noon," she answered. "And how far do you come?" "About a mile and a half." She gave him a little nod and turned to cross a vacant field that would save her a few steps. Amos watched her for a moment as she sturdily stepped for ward. •'A good little woman, and her father should be proud of her. I hope he is." He sighed softly as he plodded on. He enjoyed the lake with Its dimply surface, and the swash of the little waves as they struck the piling, and the black banner of smoke trailing aft er a faraway steamer. Presently he turned and strolled over toward the iron mills. Almost in a moment he came upon the girl of the lunch bas ket. She was sitting on a low pile of boards, and #jse beside her sat a work- Sngman, bare armed and sinewy; a swarthy man, with small black eyes and a short black beard. He was eat ing, with evident enjoyment, the break fast the girl had brought him. Amos Brandon paused at the picture. It pleased him. He nodded smilingly to the girl, who nodded back, and when the swarthy man looked up he nodded

t^ftnim too. Amos leaned against a 1 jiile of lumber. ' "Your load will be lighter on the way back," he said to the girl. "Yes," she answered* "father always has a good appetite." The swarthy man looked up. He nodded gravely to Amos. "She good girl," he slowly said. "Come long way." "Yes," said Amos. "I'm sure she's a good girl." The swarthy man looked around at the object of his praise. There was fondness in his glance. "Smart girl, too," he said. "Teacher say smartest girl in English school." * He said this with some difficulty, but with evident gratification. I "Oh, father,-" cried the child, with a Bwift little blush. Then the swarthy man's rough voice grew softer. "She all 1 got," he said. "I see," said Amos Brandon. "Mutter dead, bruder dead, sister dead. Only Lena left." He turned a little and stroked the girl's hand. Something rose In the rich man's throat, and a mist swam before his eyes. The swarthy man smilingly looked his child over from hat to shoes. When he reached the shoes, he scowled. "Bad shoes!" he said. "Bad shoes!" The girl turned to Amos Brandon. "Father thinks I should wear my best shoes," she explained. "He doesn't know how fast this walk "would wear them out." "Best shoes," echoed the swarthy man; "yes, yes, best shoes." He looked at Amos Brandon. Then he softly touched the girl's shoulder with a fore finger and Btruck himself sharply on forearm and chest. "She what I work for," he smilingly said. "I must go," remarked Amos Bran don hurriedly. He paused and stepped forward. "I would like to shake hands with you," he said to the swarthy man, who met the advancing fingers with a warm clasp. Amos nodded to the girl and strode away. There was a cross town car waiting for the signal to start. He caught it and 20 minutes later opened the front door of his home. The housekeeper met him in the hall. Her anxious face cleared, "Glad you have returned, Mr. Bran don," she said. "We were beginning to worry a little over your unusual absence." "Out for an early stroll, Mrs. Em- I erson," he said. "Kindly have break j fast ready in half an hour." He stepped into the library and open ed his desk. For a moment he sat in deep thought. Then he rapidly indit ed this letter: My Dear Mary—l find it is quit© impossible to hold out any longer. I am growing old, and I need you, dear child. The door from which I turned you two long, long years ago is open for you and yours. You are all I have in the world, dear. Without you the house is cold and deso late. For what have I been toiling all these years but for you? Come back to me, daughter, and all will be forgiven and forgotten. Tell your husband that a hearty handclasp awaits him. Say to him that I confess that I sorely misjudged him. Write to me, dear, as soon as you receive this and tell me when to expect you and George. Your affectionate father, Amos Brandon. He looked at the letter when he had finished it and shook his head. Then he carefully read it through. Again he showed his disapproval. After a moment or two he raised the sheet and deliberately tore it to bits of jagged paper and tossed them into the waste basket. "Pshaw," he smilingly muttered, "that's too slow! I'll hurry do^»i and telegraph Mary that I'm coming for them, and then I'll follow by the first train." The housekeeper stood in the door way. "Breakfast is ready, Mr. Brandon," she announced. The rich man whirled toward her. "Mrs. Emerson," he said, "I want you to put Mary's rooms into the nicest possible shape at once." The housekeeper started. "Is Miss Mary coming home, sir?" she eagerly asked. "Yes," said Amos Brandon, "she's coming home." — Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Captivating a Queen.

It was by his graceful execution of a dance that young Hatton first capti vated the heart of Queen Elizabeth, says Edward Scott In his book on "Dancing In All Ages." He had been brought up to the law and entered court, as his enemy. Sir John Perrot, used to say, "by the gaillarde," as his first appearance there was on the occa sion of a mask ball, and her majesty was so Btruck by his good looks and activity that she made him one of her band of pensioners, who were consid ered the handsomest men In England. It is said that the favors which the virgin monarch extended to her new favorite excited the jealousy of the whole court, especially that of the Earl of Leicester, -who, thinking to depre oiaie the accomplishments of the young lawyer, offered to Introduce to Eliza beth's notice a professional dancer whose saltatory performances were considered far more wonderful than Hatton's. : To this suggestion, however, the roy \ al lady, with more vehemence than el egance, exclaimed: "Pish! I will not Bee your man. It is his trade."

The Words That Won.

In London one of the weekly papers offered a prize for the best list of strong words, to number ten. The announcement specified that but ten words would be considered from any one person, and a committee of literary men would select from the numbers offered the ten strongest words In the English language. These are the words that won: Hate, blood, hungry, dawn, coming, gone, love, dead, alone, forever. Do you think of any stronger, fuller of suggestion?— Exchange.
