'A HASTY DECISION

She was dead; an old woman, with sil- very hair brushed smoothly away from her wrinkled forehead, and snowy cap tied under

jher chin; a sad, quiet face; a patient mouth,

with lines about it that told of sorrow borne with gentle firmness; and two withered tired hands, crossed with a restful look. That was all.

Who, looking at the sleeping form, would think of iove and romance, of a heart only just healed of a wound received long, long azo?!

Fifty years she had lived under that roof; a farmer’s wife. If you looked on the little plate on her coffin-lid you would see *‘Aged 70” there; and she was only twenty when John Phillips brought her home a bride.

A half century she had kept her careful watch over dairy and larder, has made but- ter and cheese, and looked after the mnu- merable duties that fall to the share ef a farmer's wife. And John had never gone with buttonless shirts or undarned secks» had not come home to an untidy house aad scolding wife. His trim, tidy Martha had been his pride, and though not a demen- strative husband, he had boasted some- times of the model house-wife that kept his home in order,

But underneath her quiet exterior there was a story that John never dreamed of, and would hardly have believed possible had he been told. She did not marry for love. When she was nineteen, a’rosy, hap- py girl, a stranger came on a visit to their little village, and that summer was the brightest and happiest she ever knew. Paul Gardner was the stranger’s name; he was an artist, and fell in love with the simple village girl, and won her heart; and, when he went away in the autumn, they were betrothed.

“I'll come again in the spring,” he said ‘**Trust me, and wait for me, Mattie, dear.”

She promised to love and wait for him til! the end of time, if need be; and, with a kiss on her quivering lips, he went away.

The inonths passed by, and Mattie was trying to make the time seem short by study- ing to improve herself, so that she might be worthy of her lover, wheu ke should return to make her his wife.

**It must be about the time he is to start,” she said to herself one day.

And bye-and-bye as she glanced oyer

, name, and with white lips and dilated eyes, she read of his marriage to another.» ‘*Mar ried! ‘l'aken another bride, instead of com- ing back to marry me! Oh, Paul, Paul! I loved and trusted you for this !”

She covered her face with her hands, and wept bitterly.

An hour afterward, as she sat there in the twilight, with the fatal newspaper lying on her lap, she heard a step on the gravel walk; and, looking up, she saw John Phillips coming up the steps. He had been té see her often before, but had never yet spoken love, and had, of course, received no en- couragement to doso. He was a plain, hard-working farmer, with no romance about him, but matter-of-fact to the core. His wife would get few caresses or tender words. He would be kind cnough—would give her plenty to eat and to wear.

Now he seemed to have come for the ex- press purpose of asking her to be his wife ; for he took a chair, and seating himself be- side her, after the usual greeting, reserving scarcely a moment to take breath, began, in lis business-like manner to converse. There was no confession of love, no plead- ing, no hand-clasping, no tender glances ; he simply wanted her, would she be his wife? His manner was hearty enough ; there was no doubt he really wanted her-- would rather marry her than any other woman he knew ; but that was all.

Her lips moved to tell him that she did

not love him, but as she let her eyes fal] upon the crimson-hearted rose that swung from the vine over the window, she caught sight of those few lines again. **Married !” she said to herseif. ‘‘What can Ido? He doesn’t ask me to love him. If | marry him I can be a true wife to him, and nobody will know that Paul has jilted me.”

The decision was made. Her cheeks were ashy pale as she looked up, straighi into his eyes, and answered quietly, ‘‘Yes, I will be your wie.”

Her parents were pleased that she was

chosen by so well-to-do a young man ; so it was all settled, and they were married that same summer. People thought she sobered down wonderfully ; more than that, nothing was said that would lead any one to suppose any change had taken place. Yes, she was sobered down. She dared not think of Paul. There was now hope ahead. Life was a time to be filled up with something, so that she might not think of herself. John was always kind, but she got worried of his talk of stock and crops, and said to herself, ‘I must work harder ; plan and fuss, and bustle about as other women do, so that I may forget, and grow like John.” Two years went swiftly by. A baby slept in a little cradie; and Martha—nobody called her Mattie but Paul—sat rocking it with her foot as she knitted a blue woolen stocking for the baby’s father. There was a knock at the half-opened door.

replied with dignity; “my name is Phillips.” *“Phillips !" he echoed. ‘* Are you

* ihese are strange words from you, Paul Gardner; did you think 1 was waiting all this time another woman's hus- band ?—that I was keeping my faith with one whe played me false so soon ?”

“Piayed you false! I have not. Tam come as 1 promised you. The two years are but just past, and 1am here to claim you. Why do you greetme thus? Are you indeed married, Mattie Gray ?”

She was trembling like an aspen leaf. For answer she turned and pointed to the cradle. He came and stood before her, with white face and folded arms.

**Tell me why did youdo this! Didn't you love me well enough to wait for me ?”

She went and unlocked a drawer, and took out a newspaper. Unfolding it, and finding the place, she pointed to it with her fingers, and he read the marriage notice.

“What of this?’ he asked, as he met her questioning, reproachful look. **Oh,Mattie! you thought it meant me. It is my cousin, i am not married, nor in love with any one but you.”

*‘Are you telling me the truth?” she askek in aa eager, husky voice, .

And then, as he replied, *‘it is true,” she gave a low groan and sank down into 4 chair.

“Oh, Paul, forgive me! It nearly broke my heart! I didn’t know that you had a cousin by the same name. I ought not to have doubted you; but 'twas there in black and white—and this man, my husband, came, and I married him !”

With bitter tears she told him how it all happened. With clenched hands he walked to and fro, then stopped beside the cradle, and bent over the sleeping child, Lower he vent, until his lips touched its wee forehead, while he murmured softly to himself, ‘* Mattie’s baby.” «

Then he turne, and kneeling before said in a low vowe, ** | forgive you,

And she went down on her knees beside her sleeping baby, and prayed for strength to bear her great trial. ‘They never saw one another again.

Seventy years old! Her stalwart sons and bricht-eyed daughters remember her as a loving and devoted mother, her gray- haired husband as a most faithful wife.

‘* Never was a woman more patient and ind, and as good a housewife as ever was,” he said, as he brushed the back of his old brown hand across his eyes while looking down on the peaceful face.

And not one of them ever knew of the weary heart and broken hope that had died in her breast, nor ever dreamed of the sur- rowful load she had borne through life.

Diaz as Dictator.

THE MOVEMENT GROWING IN POWER IN MEXICO—-A DEMAND THAT THE OFFICE BE MADE HEREDITARY.

—_—

A special from Nogales, A. T., says: The proposal of prominent Mexicans to estab- lish a dictatorship to replace the presidency of Mexico is attracting a great deal of com- ment. ‘The Mexican papers, with few ex- ceptions, have lately espoused the scheime and urge its adoption. El Monitor Fronter- isco says: ‘‘Gencral Diaz prepares the road to the dictatorship, the Voz de Mexico has entered the arena, and proclaims it. Congress is called on to sanction the will of the Caesar of the continent, and Senor Romero Rubio workssilently to realize this new plan. Not being able to bring to success his project to prolong the presiden- tial term,he took up the dictatorship,and so it happens that this project is fathered by a pillar of the Conservative party, and the people seem to be indifferent to these at- tempts. Meanwhile, the gubernatorial press clamors for a dictatorship of Gen. Diaz for twenty years. Why not heredit- ary? When nations do not possess the necessary manhood to be free, nothing is more evident than that despots will take advantage of their indolence and erect

thrones and assume the _ sceptre. It is nine years now since ‘* Diaz’s party’ climbed, step by step, the

ladder which leads to despotism, and once there have defied public ire. Already they ignore the fundamental laws, and ail that 1s wanted is the reign of a sole will. The life of a slave is sorrowful, and we need to re- deem it as men of action, men whose hearts belong to the country, not to the horde of speculators. If such men have disappeared, we bow respectfully to the ruins of the republic and exclaim, ‘‘Loug live Porferio.”
