The course of thelr true love had run very smooth for tneir mothers, old schoolmates, had laughingly betrothed them when little Annie was but three years 0) Harry was an orphan, but his uncle, Dr. Benton, had adopted him at his mother's death, and filled the place of the father, whom the boy had never seen, The doctor was an old man, and regarded his frank, generous nephew as the apple of his eye. He was aot wealthy, but his practice was good, and he was able to give Harry a col- lege education, and looked! forward to the time when his nephew could take his place Annie Ashley was the only child of the village lawyer at Burnside, who, his practice being very small, specu- lated freely, sometimes losing, some- times gaining. Annie was his pet, and he loved her fully as well as Dr. Ben- ton loved Harry. His schemes for her education were, in the eyes of the vil- lagers, wonderful, for he proposed sending her to a fashionable seminary when she was old enough. Accordingly, Annie, at fifteen, was sent to a noted Institution, wherein young ladies are taught various use- ful and ornamental €ccomplishments; and Harry, to his great joy, was sent to college to begin his medical educa- itlen. The young friends met often, and were frequently invited to the same parties, and feil in love with each other anew every day. While affairs were thus progressing the holidays called the lovers home for visit. Harry had passed through his college course and graduated with honors, while Annie was quite a show schelar at her seminary, But they 'ound trouble in store for them at home. One of Mr. Ashley's specula- iions had succeeded beyond his utmost cxpectations, and found himseif vnddenly a man of large wealth, As svon as his daughter returned home he announced his intention of making, sith her, the tour of Europe, declaring pompously that no woman's educa'ion could be considered complete until she had seen al] that is to be seen on the others Ping ot the big pond, heard Cotsinaa his uncle's marrlage, flew to Annie, and soon won her confession of love and acceptance of his hand; then, confident of success, the two repaired to Mr. Ashley's study to ask his perraission to their union. He received them coldly; Harry poured forth his protestations of love for An- rie, spoke of the length of their av- quaintance and courtship, and finally askcd him for his daughter's hand, "Mr. Benton," said Mr. Ashley, cold- ly, "what are your financial posses sions and prospects my for rtune to make, Mr. , It is true," said the young man; I am young, just of age. My uncle will share his practice with me, and I have every prospect of doing well. I am known in the place, and have many warm friends, who will, for my uncle's sake, trust his nephew to prescribe for their aches and pains," "This sounds very plausible," was the reply; "but you must pardon my plain speaking. My daughter is now an helress, and must wed higher than a country practitioner. It is strange matrimony did not occur to you before my fortune improved. oe "Sir!" cried Harry "There! do not fly into a passion," said the lawyer. "I know all you would say of disinterested love, and «ll that sort of thing, My daughter, sir. declines your offer." "Father," sald Annie, in a low tons, "IT love Harry "Fudge! you will outgrow it. You fancy you love him because no other young man has yet been serious tn Lis attentions to you. Walt, girl, till ycu see those who ll flock around the heiress; the ou may choose a hus- Mr. Benton," and he turned from him. "Remember, Annie," he as he left the room, "I positively forbid any correspondence to keep you reminded of this nonsense." Harry left the house soon after, and Was not seen in the village for several days. Annie and her father left Burn- side the next morning. Two years passed away. Harry was alone in the world. Dr. Benton, dying soon after the young man's great grief, left him the moderate fortune he had laid by and his practice among the 600d folks in the vicinity of Burnside. The little village had, these two years, grown utterly distasteful to the young doctor; he missed Annie at every turn and his home was very lonely. At length, having sufficient means to war- rant the leisure, he started on a short trip to San Francisco. This was his only vacation since the death of his uncle, and he enjoyed it immensely. In tnree months he returned to Burnside and resumed his professional duties. He had heard nothing from Annle since ehe left Burnside, but his old love was strong and constant, as the young maidens of the village had discovered to thelr chagrin, for the handsome young doctor was the object of many a sighing, secret love. Another year and one day, while stopping at the "Palmer House, Chicago, he awoke from an afternoon siesta when it was almost dark. e sprang up. 4 was about to begin to dress for dinner, when some one sing- ing in the adjoining room attracted his attetion.

Humiliated, despat~ ing. he had'sunk beneath the leaving Annie in a strange city, alone. Mrs. Evans, a lady whom Annie hed met In Kansas City, pitying her for- lorn condition, had taken her under her protection to bring her home, and it was while they were on their way east that Annie, being left alone for a few hours with Master Evans, had sung to beguile the time and attracted Harry's attention. Mr. Evans, her kind friend's husband, was the husband Harry had so rashly supposed to be hers. Had her impulsive lover waited but a moment, he would have seen her spring to meet him, and fall senseless to the floor. Two years more have flown by. Harry was seated In the parlor of the hotel! at Tabylon, Long Island,' when he heard a noise in the hall, and then @ loud cry for a doctor, Stepping = he found a crowd in the passage, saw two men carrying a lady up "the stairs "What's the matter? ter?" he erifed. 'Oh, go up to her," said a man near him. "She's hurt, and so is her hus- band. It's Mrs. Evans' companion, and they've all been thrown out of the corriage." Long before this sentence was fir- ished, Harry was in the room where the sufferers had"been carried. The first object that met his eyes was tie man whom he supposed to be Annie's husband, lying senseless on the sofa, while on the bed near lay another fig- ure, the lady he had seen on the stairs; but her face was turned to the wall. "Oh, sir!" said the lady, springing to meet him, "are you a doctor? Oh, tell me, is my husband ad?' Her husband! Was Annie dead, and this her successor? This was Harry's first idea. Professional services, how- ever, were imperatively demanded, and he soon restored Mr. Evans to con sciousness. His injuries wefe not se rious, and fe was soon sitting up cn I am a doc- the sofa. In the meantime, her worst | apprehensions relieved, Mrs. Evacs was caring for the mysterious lady on the bed, and now called -upon- .

To lowre me after so Icng a separation!" Mrs. Evans told him all of Annic'a troubles, and he blessed her again and again as he found how true and kind a friend she had been to the orphan. He was standing one day by Annie's bedside watching her. She was asleep, and he knew that if she whe: ac that she was conscious of thin; around her, he might hope for her nt covery.

But give me the dawn, when the whole fea.h- ered tribe awakes to new life, and from every tree and shrub the songs burst forth.

But all the 'Of birds are not to be .ascri to this influence. Doubtless many birds sing only during the nesting segson, as if the husband was anxious to cheer his wife in her Semaathes cares. Such is-certainly the case with the far-famed nightingale, who ceases his song as soon as the young birds are hatched. During the period of egg-laying and in- cubation, his sounds are best described as the harsh frog-like croak, or the low gut- tural note of a raven. Others, how- ever, sing all the year round.
