We went sailing on beautiful Lough Erin one day during our stay in Ireland, and were becalmed for three or four hours of @ misty September afternoon. Then it was that we heard an Irish love story from the lips of our guide, philosopher and friend, Mr. Conrad Kane, whose personal experi- ence is herein set forth. If [ live to be a hoondhred I'll niver for- get that night! I was lavin’ Ailsle home a bit av the road, for I darrn’t go the lingth av her gate, an’ it was seldom, indade, I yintured beyant the bridge, but this time, howiver, it happened, I crassed to the odher side with her, an’ we were well oop the bend, houldin’ aich odher’s han’s, an’ sthrol- in’ along, the stars coomin’ out like weeny white flowers in the sky above us, =o Ailsie gev a joomp, an’ a bit av a screech, an’ away with her, roontn’ for the dear life, an’ there was her fadher stannin’ fornist me, in the big black shadda av the hedge. “Good avenin’ ti ye, Misther Conrad 2 he, mekin’ a sthep into the road twirlin’ a black thorn he had in his fist, 4 avenin’ Uye, Misther frogan, sir, . gapin’ me eye on the s-hick, for I knew to be handy enoof with the same. asn't for the dacint fadher’s I'd bra’k this shillelagh ly young head,” sez he. sez I, “for it's the dacint » Lam, that wudn’'t lift a fingher an’ son ye arr. over yer rr: “An’ we wer me, ye villin,”” sez he. shoome to spake up io my m askin’? ure, an’ ye know well what I mane by it, Misther Brogan, It's a year since I toul ye me manin’, “Ye brat, ve, . “An it's you that "a marry Ailsie, is it, ‘ldthout the roof to coover yez or a patch av petaties?

But Rafe wint on, rasinin” an’ showin’ me how wrong it was for Ailsle to be made to suffer, an’ how it was long | Waitin’ for whet might niver come. An’ IL knew he was right—not a doubt av it! An’ more an’ above, it was three months that I hadn't got the sight av Allsie, nor the us, man,an’ man. “Not my Allsie?* scrape av a pen, but, for all that, it was hawd to mek me give in that he’s spake to her, an’ run his chance, but at last, with the dint av bis perstashins, I did consint, an’ the next day he kem, smilin’ an’ happy as a young prince, to say they were be- spoken, an’ it was left to the oul’ folks to rame the day. Well, from that time forrit th@re was wurreck, an’ enough to be done at the fo an’ mesilf was glad o’ that same. I was backward at meetin’ the neighbors, for the whole town lan’ was talkin’ av me, an’ Refe, an’ Ailsie, an’ blamin’ him, an’ blamin’ her an’ pityin’ me; but it was liltle they knew, when cll was said. I kep’ a good hoult av me tongue, an’ except to give a civil answer, I nayther made nor med- | @led, hopin’ the talk would dhrop the soon- for what must come will come, shmall | matther who sez yis or no. Ivery avenin’ av me life was spint with Rafe an’ Ailsie. An’ many’s the time, walkin” through the Gap, an’ 'roun’ be An- dhrew's bank whin the moon was liftin’ up out o° the bog mist, as roun’ an’ yalla like it was the sun had lost its way—many’s the toime Rafe would walk the throw av a stone forninst us, me an’ Ailsie, lavin us to walk an’ talk together through the fields an’ places we used to walk, when we were swatehaarts! * * * We'd be chattin’ aktout the house Misther Brogan was buildin’ an’ plenishin’, in bein part av the bride's fortune—besides a fine young heifer, an’ the pigs—or mebbe jokin’ about the pots an’ pans I was mekin’ for her, down at the foorge. * * * Well! well! ‘The time went on an’ the bans was read in chapel, an’ the day set, an’ like before I cud turn roun’ twice at me worruk, there was the weddin’ mornin’. As foine a day as ever ye saw—the birds singin’ an’ the grass that full av cowslips that ye cudn’t step for thrampin’ th! nhs , an’ the sky shin- an’ not a clovd aist or wist. Nothin’ 21 do but that I must stand oop with afe—he was that wishful I cudn’t find me haart to disappoint him. So. I wint boldly to the house, an’ there the widdineers was assembled, sure enoof—all the young peo- ple that knew us, Allsie an’ me, it was | haard on me what to do, or where to look. An’ whin I shu’k han’s with Ailsie, wan av the bridesmaids—God loove her for it—bu’st an’ roon cut av the room. There was a foine faste cookin’ in the kitchen—turkies an’ geese an’ leg o’ mut- ton, an’ a big table spread an’ the best av the company ready for it. We were to walk in cooples, twice roun’ the town an ‘thin to the chapel. ul’ Roger, the fiddler, was tunin’ an’ squalin’ up his fiddle, ready to march forninst us, an’ ivery wan was as foine an’ gintale as ye plaze, an’ the bride, in white, settin’ her lone near the dure, an’ we were all waitin’ for Rafe. He toul’ me the night before he wud go first to the chapel, to his duty, an 'mate me at Auslie’s an the sthroke av Un. But whin the sthroke was past, an’ he didn’t coom, they began to be onaisy an’ go in an’ out—watchin’ the road and whisperir.’ an’ noddin! PART Il. I didn’t like to be puttin’ meself forrit, but at lest I tuk me hat”from the flure an’ miutioned that I'd stroll away down a bit te mate him, as bein’ best man it was the laste I cud do. So I wint along a bit av the road an’ anodher bit, an’ an- odher, till I kem to the dure av his house, an’ there wasn’t a hilt nor hair av him to be found His people had staarted away to the chapel, to be ready for the weddin- eers. I seen them sittin’ In the pews whin I kem by—out—no Rafe. What cud I do but go back to the house, an’ be this toime it was more like a wake nor a weddin’. The br.desmaids was cryin’ an’ lamentin’ and the oul’ weemin was shakin’ their heads, put not a word nor a tear from Ailsie. Wan neighbor hed it to say that Rafe was seen gom’ through the | gap with a thravellin’ bag in his han’, at the clearin’ o’ day, and anodher was ready to swear he watched him, not one hour ago, skaitin’ down be Reiple’s bog, for it was taiked a bit that he had a swatehaart on the hill beyant, an’ there was pits in’ holes he might fail into, for the surest foot is niver sure crossing’ a bog, an’ mebbe the peor b'y was sunk deep an’ dead. But in the middle ay all the floory in kem little Dinny Quin, roonin’ with a letther in his fist. Oop he goes to the fadther: “Rafe O'Neil gev me this,” sez he, “an’ he’s away an’ the coach with Tom the Post.” Oul' Brogan bruk the wafer, the letther shakin’ in ‘his han’ till ye cud hear it rat- tlin’, but sorra the word he cud mek out, hed or tail. It was Craig the schoolmas- ther stud oop an’ read it out as plain as a, b,c. ‘Rispicted Misther Brogan, Miss Brogan an’ kind friends all— “I pen these few lines to let ye know that saircumstances bein’ such I can’t marry the yoong leddy, an’ wishin’ her her de- sarvin’s av a betther paartner. The sair- cumstances is well known to Misther Bro- San, av the mare not coomin’ to the fore, an’ the pigs be.n’ none av the best; it’s lit- tle I'm carin’ for the valye, be it what it may, but no man’ll say he met a fool in Rafe O'Neil.

The pigs were the pick o’ the market, an’ whin he axed me to throw in the mare, it was laffin’ an’ jokin’ he was, an the more so, whin he got ‘No’ for an answer.

WILLIAMS.—Dear Str: My wifo-has been 3 sufferer from rheumatism for more than three years, suffering at times with terrible pains in her limbs, ‘and other times with a severe “‘crick”’ in her back, which causes great agony. She spent much for pby- sicians aud medicine, but secured only temporary relfef; finally che concluded to try Pink Pilis. She has taken eight boxes, and I can say from the first ove she has improved, until now she 1s almost en- ‘tirely free from pain, and has grown much stronger, and feels confident that, by the blessing of God, they will effect a permanent cure. We take great pfeasure in recommending them to our friends. (Signed) Rev. J. H. BUCKNER, Pastor Bethel A.M.E. Church, Eimira, N.Y.

Ailsie, come for- tit; ye’re iistinin’ to what's sayin’, gairl?” Allsie walked over the flure, an’ I niver seen her walk so proud, an’ she stud there, forn.nst us all, as white as the slaive av the dhress she had an.” * “I'm hstenin’, fadher,” sez she. ‘An’ is It yer wish I'd marry Connie Kane? Sure, isn’t it for you to say? An’ are ye manin’ to give yer blessin’ to—Conni+ an’ me?” ‘An’ di’ ye think whin I'd give me con- nt the blessin’ id be groodged?" sez he. ‘Say the word, me dawter, an’ the wed- din’ll go an. We'll show the schondhrel there's a betther man'll take his place.” Avlsie niver turned her face to look at me, but she put out both her weeny hands an’ clootched oul’ Patchy’s arrum. “Fadher,” sez she, “fad ser"—layin’ down her purty head with the daark curls about it an his shoulder—“ye, desarve a betther dawter,” sez she, “an’—God’s paardon, an’ it's only wid yer blessin’, full an’ free, that fll marry Connie.” Well, an’ so the weddin wint an, an’ it was like in a dhrame I was, with the spachin’ an’ dhrinkin’, an’ ‘atin’, yis, an’ the bonfires, an’ cheerin’, for the whole town haird av what happened. But whin it was all over, an’ we were alone, at last, in cur own little house, an’ the dure shut betune us an’ the worl’, sez she, “but it was the wicked shame to decaive the oul’ man! Didn't I nearly oop an’ tell him the schame from beginnin’ to end, it yas that haard to stan’ an’ hear the dacint b’y abused. Poor Rafe,” sez she, with the tears in her eyes—‘the Lord loove him. Was there iver such a friend?” *"Twas he had the brains for plannin’, anyho sez I. “Didn't he know well what wud be the resoolt?” “But I'm fearin’,” sez she, again, “I'm fearin’, dear, it wasn’t right to decaive the oul’ man. I'll not rest aisy till I tell him, dear.” ‘Di’ ye think ye'll rest aisy afther it?” sez I, laffin’; for in troth it tuk little to make me laff, at the same toime. “He'll raise ructions, high an’ low, but we hev his blessin’ anny how, an’ he can't take that back. It'll be toime enoof to tell him, Carrlin’, when Rafe comes home.” But it was five years, out an’ out afore we saw the b’y again. Thin he kem back from Ameriky an’ a wife be nis side; a fine “Didn't I nearly oop and tell him?” slip av a Brooklyn gairl, as slendher as a sally rod, with ankles like a goat, an’ lips as thin as a sixpence, an’ her as full av fun an’ divolement as a comb is full of honey, an’ as swate. She bewitched us all with her pretty talk an’ ways, an’ she took to Allsie an’ the chiid like they were her cwn kith an’ kin, an’ it’s sorry, indade, we vere whin they gev us good-bye and sailed back to Ameriky. The night before they wint, Rafe an’ me tcok a danther over beyant the gap, an’ a look about at the oul’ fields an’ places, him rot Knowin’ but mebbe he'd sce thim no more, an’ we were spakin’ av many a scrape an’ frolic we hed, an’ how he Lrought it about for Ailsie an’ me to be married, an’ the fine weddin’ we had, an’ «ll, an’ it was an me haart to tell him how tkankful we'd been to him for what he dcne. We were walkin’ in the duskn’s down the bend av Andhrew’s bank, his arrum hang- in’ roun’ me neeck like two b'ys idlin’ home from school together as often we kem an’ wint be the same way. ° “Connie,” sez he, the minnit I begin to spake, an’ stoppin’ the words in me mouth, “don't be thankin’ me. Ye niver knew what I done for ye, nor the half av it. It's over now, an’ I hev as good a wife as iver fell to the wish av man, so it’s mebbe no harrum to spake. Ye niver guessed it, Con- mie, ye oma than, an’ no more did she, but there was only wan woman in God’s worl’ for the manny’s the year, an’ that was— Ailete. Oh, yis, yis! Me haart was sore an’ heavy for her, but I knew well I had no chance as long as yer six foot two stud in shoe leather. I niver was the fool to chrame it—but wasn’t It haard, di’ ye think, to ask her for me bride, that anodher man ud get her! An’ whin the day kem, was there no temptation, I’m askin’ ye, to take tke place beside her, an’ put the ring an her firgher, for she wasn't the gairl to go con- thrary to her fadher an’ her friends. An’ I knew as well as I was livin’ that she cudn’t sthruggle nor stand agin them all. What cud aither av ye do if the divle was that sthrong in me that I’d demand me bride, seein’ it was known I hed her promise an’ her fadher’s word? I spint the night an me knees, Connie, prayin’ for what kem at last. it was only at the brack o' day I could houl’ up me head an’ look at meself for an annest man. Whin the light begin to come cver the hills beyant, where we used to go, in the airly mornin’s, afther the hares an’ rabbits, di’ ye mind? a couple av wild gos- soons, an’ that fond av odher, it was haard to paart us for tie lingth av a day; the re- membrance kem over me like it was a big river, flowin’ an’ carryin’ everything before it. I knew I looved Ailsie from the crown av her purty head to the sole of her purty foot, but didn’t I loove me comrade, too? Wasn't there times whin I thought I wud die for him, an’ wasn’t one loove as good as anodher? It was, Connie, dear, an’ betther. For av I wint be me loove for Ailsie an’ tuk her from ye, what ’ud I be but a black- haarted viilin? So, all was settled whin I ruz from me knees, an’ I wasn’t afeared to face the suun in the sky—nor frind, nor neighbor afther that. But listen to me, Connie,” sez he, standin’ still in a ridge, “niver, for yer life, tell Ailsie this. Di’ ye mind what I’m sayin’—an’ will ye gimme yer word?” It was long we talked, but av coorse I gev him the promise he asked, and I niver braithed the word to Ailsie, but, somehow, it’s often since I thought she knew it all.
