A Gloomy
Shertly, in the raised, feverish tones, und the mute, eager question of the dy- eyes spoke vaguely and miserably in the silence, a silence broken presently by Royden’s voice, as, on his knees be- side the bed, he pleaded with the Father for this troubled child. The woman’s hurd, quick breath wag softened as she lay and listened.
“Oh! my dear Lord,” she sobbed, when Royden’s yoice was hushed, “ac- cept that prayer for me.”
When he rose, he took a Bible, which he saw lying open on a chair, and sofitly read to her the Saviour’s precious words of pardon and of promise. Amd while he did so, the eyes, which he could not see, lost somewhat of their troubled fix- ity of gaze, and there struggled into them a gleam of hope.
“She read to me,” the woman’ falter-
ihicr Lila
ed, with a faint gesture toward the closed door, “but she read of other things. There was—always the great
white Throne—always; and [ could see Him there—a Judge, my Judge, and she read—it might be only once, but I heard it afterward in every line—that all liars
shall—have their part—ah! I forget it 1] while you read. I—saw Him—a I'niher—ready to pardon me—waiting to parden me. I—shall see—other things—
clearly if—if you help me still.”
And while the quiet hours of the June night on, Royden’s own kind words, and calm and wondrous werds he read, did help her.
The exndle had burned down to its socket, and the faint summer dawn was creeping through the epen window,when the neighbor who had fetched Royden entered with a cup of tea for the sick woman. Instinctively he made a movre- ment then to leave the room, but sud- denly all the wistful, troubled eagerness

Yet still, whem left again with Roy- den, she lay in silence, and told no- | thing:
Then the hours crept on again, until the light fell straight from heaven up- on the dying face to which no sleep had come; and to which no sleep would ever come again, until one last touch should close the troubled eyes forever.
Just Roydea returned to the bed- room, after carrying away the smoulder- inc candle, the little boy awoke; and, waking just he had fallen asleep, with a vague sense of misery and lone- liness upon him, he stretched out his hands to his mother, and sobbed as if his little frame could not contain its lead of fear and grief. The mother, powerless in her weakness, saw Roy- den take the child tenderly within his arms, and heard the sobs grow faint and few at last upon his breast. Them her long, watchful silence was broken sharply, a light broke across the fixed gaze, and with sudden, feverish strength she rose in her bed.
“T want—a magistrate!” she and clasped her burning hands. “It is all clear before me no. My child—it was for my child I feared—but he will rot suffer. I read that in your face. Ah! God is good—so good—and it is not too late! Let me magistrate!”
“Y will bring one.” said Royden, gen- the eSs-'1 ant af big arms,

Future
Made Bright, and Health and Vigour Re- stored by the Use ef Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food.
Headache, backache, sleeplessness, despondency, and irregularities are the result of an exhausted condition of the body and nervous system.
No treatment was ever so efficacious in restoring health, strength, vigour, and vitality as Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food, the great blood buiider.
Mrs. J. M. Bradley, 100 Jane street, Ottawa, etates:—' For several years I have been gradually running down in health. I became nervous and weak, and worried greatly over my future,
“ Hearing of Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food and the wonderful results it has ac- complished in others, I obtained a box and began using, it as directed. I be- gan to improve immediately, and am now restored to full health and vigour,
“Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food is an ex- cellent remedy, and I can recommend it to all who are weak, nervous, or rug
down in health.”
Dr. Chiser's Nerve Food, the world’s greatest blood builder and nerve re storative, 50 cents a box, at all dealerg er Edmanson Bates and Co., Torenta,
crept up and climbed to lay his head on his shoulder.
“I think so. He will scon be here,”
“But I am dying fast, am I not?’ Not for the world would Royden have ccncealed the. truth from one (whose
every breath might be her last; but he uttered it so kindly, and touched with such faith upon the happiness beyond, that a glance almost as peaceful as a smile shone in her eyes when they met his.
“Let me bid him good-bye.”
Royden laid the child upon the bed and turned away. That long, last part- ing between mother and son was most sacred in his eyes-
“You have promised,” she whispered, wistfully, when Royden came presently to take the child from the bed. “You have promised—to help him—that his life may be different from—his mother’s. There is the book—it is but little—yet his father wished—’”
“It shall be used wisely for him,” Royden said, holding a cordial to her lips when her voice failed. “Rest in perfect peace. He shall never feel him- self uncared for while I live.”
And now a real smile lighted up the thin, worn face.
“Now—if he wili come—in time—that is all.’
He came almost as she spoke—a light- hearted gentleman, who looked upon all magisterial duties as the comedies of life; and yet the dying woman's solumn earnestness infected even him.
“I am much obliged to you for com- ing,” she faltered, humbly. “I will not keep you long. I know what to do— my father told me. I”’—moving her hand restlessly about the pillows—“have it here. Margaret, where are you? I can searecely see. You put it here, when I bade you bring it from my box—for me to burn—before I died. I meant to burn it. I left it to the last; but I— meant to burn it—sealed as it is. I can- not now. He saved my only child— he helped me, and will help my boy. But for him I should have burned it, and the truth could never have been known. Where is it—where is it? My strength is going.”
Murmurirg soothingly the the woman who had bronght in the magis- trute moved the pillows one by one, un- ti) she found a picket tied and sealed.
“There, there,” cried the dyirg wo
man. trying to grasp it in her hot, weak

do not forget how you questicmed me of Gabriel Myddelton—the questions from which I fled. It is for you—let me leave it with you—but I have something t Co first. Father told me of it. ‘In the presence of a magistrate,’ he said. Now I am ready.”
Formally, with little need of help or direction: and clearly, in spite of her fniling breath and feeble tone, she took the packet im her hands; and tenderly touching the Bible which they gave her, she testified on oath to the truth of whut the documents contained. Then, with a sigh which sounded almost hap- gave the packet into Royden’s hand, and turned away her face.
The sun was shining high above the city roofs before the last heavy breath She had begged that the

and anxious, carried him away to her ewn room, and Royden was watching niore when the end came, for the doctor lind left her, knowing he had no power to do anything further.
Just as Royden closed the dim, wide

“IT see,” said Royden. as he left the inner room; “then I will wait for your return.”
He wrote @ few directions to leave with his card; after which he saw the mistress of the house, and took upon himself the responsibility of all expenses
