N the golden past there dwelt in a kingdom far away, a humble cottager, who lived with his good wife and little daughter, Myra, and worked from early morn till dewy eve to keep them in comfort and health. So well did he succeed that his family was known far and near for the happiness and cheer within the tiny plaster walls of its habitation, But it could not last. Truly have the poets sung of fading stars. So failed the ascendant light of the cottager. In the very prime of his existence, a blighting pestilence fell upon the l ,.; Village wherein they dwelt, and when it had passed on its scourging way, it was seen that some were missing from the familiar streets. Among them was the father of Myra. On the morn the Village bell ., T'i tolled his dirge the faithful wife sickened in her lowly home, and with lem. . , idealist to be revealed to her after months of earnest supplication of ' - ' the Muse. . the coming of the crescent of a new moon she gave up the struggle and slipped away to join her husband. Pitiable was the position in which the orphan was left; pitiable for i. t the sorrow which overwhelmed her heart, shaken with its two-fold grief; pitiable for the extreme poverty of her condition. Indeed, so utterly destitute of resources for a livelihood was she that when her future was Viewed for the hrst time dispassionate of any recollection of her loss, it was evident that there was but one solution to the prob- She realized she could not tarry for the fastidious career of an Her active young body must be clothed and the ever-stab- hing pangs of youthful hunger satisfied in a sufficient measure. So advised her faithful friends, and thus she yielded to the wisdom of their suggestions, and made ready to enter the factory of the far dis- tant metropolis. VVhereby unfolded this tale of grief and consolation. Now it befell the young girl that her long journey was attended with success, as was the application for entrance to the chosen estab- lishment, but despite all this, peace came not to the heart of Myra. 1va .r ?a r , . 11 t l' .

'l. nth' Elen now the day seems marvelously long when our task suits not our taste. So dragged the time with Myra, who dwelt alone in her tiny room, living and grieving for the beloved memory of years gone by, and feeling each niorn as she rose, not the slightest semblance of the usual exhilaration which springs from wholesome rest. . Now it chanced one day that a fellow worker, o-bserv1ng the hope- less droop of her shoulders, held speech with her and effected a great relief. In the center of the city, said he, there stood a house .ofoprayer, which lifted its mighty bulk to the very stars, and afforded 1n 1tsqpro- portions accommodation for all who might choose to come. Hlther came those whom sorrow had visited and whose hearts. bowed down in despair; hither those whose spirit knew no consolation and could not rest content.
