 FEOM APBIL TO JUNE. I. We knew we were not the first married people vno had had miaun^^rstandinKS, though we both seemed to try to understand. It went along month after month, until my wife said she couldn't bear it any longer, and told me frankly that she could'nt live with me in this way, and must go away â€" somewhere. So we agreed to see what a temporary separation would do for us. We had known and seen so many happily married people, aa well as many others whom we knew who were completely miser- able in looking back, and more hopelessly forward, that, before starting life together, we had agreed thafinthe latter case, under similiar circumstances, life would be unbear- able to us, and we would find a remedy some way that life was short, at best, etc., etc. Yet here we were, less than two years married, growing farther apart every day, and less happy, scarcely realizing why. One thing she said, I continually aroused her combativenesa as no other person had ever done, awakening a resistance in her nature which she never knew she possess- ed in such a degree until she married me. And, in return, 1 told her that she tried my patience more than any living being, tnd sometimes, beyond its utmost limits. When the good-byes were said I remem- ber the regretful look in her eyes as she said, " I am afraid sometimes, Albert, that you do not love me " and, hard as it was to part from her, and in such a way, in the en- deavor to conceal my emotion, I, perhaps coolly, replied, "I shouldn't wonder if there was something of the kind the matter on both sides." She made no answer to this, but said "Good-by" once more. Only two weeks since she went away, and it seems like two years. There there I'll be a man, and not a silly, lonely boy. I guess I can manage to get along without her very well. I'll ride I'll walk I'll write, read, and smoke. Oh, there are plenty of ways to occupy one's mind, aud get out of one's self â€" confound it II. Two weeks since I left home. Home It wasn't a home in the true sense for it lacked nearly everything but external com- forts. Still â€" if " the home is where the heart is," I think â€" I will not be so foolish. I can scarcely believe I possess a heart, or I should not be the woman I am, and here. Oh, I shall get along by myself, all alone How beautiful, how quiet it is here 1 The view from the window alone would charm the eye, and warm the heart of any sensitive appreciative beholder. Nature's restfulness a night like this should calm all inward restlessness. Strange it does not mine. Ah there are some bicyclers coming around the curve in the road. I'll watch them. Per- haps my husband is with them. But, no I am sure he would come alone tor me. How often he used to laugh at me, and say it seemed the height of my ambition to ride a bicycle. Well, I couldn't think of anything that I imagined would make me happier sometimes, when he would mount his wheel at the door, and ride off. The thought of being able to do the next thing to flying, your own will the master ot the thing you guide, few unseen obstacles in the way, giving courage to conquer the seen, if there are any. I remember saying to my husband once, when he left home looking very sober, and came back with his face lighted with real pleasure and the healthful glow of exercise, that it seemed to me there were more re- creations and pleasures in life, at any rate more panaceas for lack of pleasures, for men than for women. He replied (though I don't believe he really meant it), "You wo- men don't ask for them, thereby creating a supply for the need. A woman's way, if anything is the matter, is to think, a.nd feel, principaJly the latter, instead of actively taking hold of some kind of work or diver- sion." I always seemed to provoke such replies Irom hire, thoigh there isn't a bet- ter or kinder-hearted man in the world, I know. If a woman's only true place is in the home, and her mission to make it happy, then, indeed, my life is a failure in spite ot my efforts. But what's the use of sitting here so down-nearted 1 came to get rid of it. I'll take a walk. HI. "It seems to me 'twould be better to go back the same way we came, and take the first road to the right after we get around the curve, for I am sure we ought not to have come this way," said one of three bi- cycle jiders to his two companions. "All right," replied the others. "Look at that house over yonder, George," continued the first speaker. "I wouldn't object to the daily view one would have from those upper west windows for a morning tonic and evening sedative, would you " " 'Tis fine, that's a fact," answered the person addressed as George. " I caaght a view of a woman's face at one of the windows, as we passed before, that attracted me. Did either of yon notice it " asked the third gentleman, who had not spoken until now. "No," they both repli 3d. "I believe there it is now, coming toward us. Yes, I am sure " rather eagerly said the one who had seen the face first at the window. The three rode past her, meeting her in- terested half look at them with a soi t of respectful response, as seemed allowable on the quiet country road under the circum- stances. " I don't think it would be a very griev- ous act of impropriety to ask her if she can direct us to K do you " said Number Three, after they were some distance by, ad- dressing the others. " Y'ou can if you want to," said One and Two, "and we'll dismount and wait here." Turning his wheel, and quickly overtaking her, as quickly dismounting and raising his hat, he said, â€" "Madame, pardon me; but would you be kind enough to tell me, as a represent- ative of my party, the nearest, most direct way to K " In a full but sweet voice, that was an in- fluence in itself, she replied, â€" " I am not thoroughly familiar with these surroundings yet, as I have only been here a few days but I think you take the first road to the right after passing the curve. If you wish to feel more sure about it, the peo- ple in the second house on the left will glad- ly tell you, and more in detail." " Many thankf,iand I tmst you will ex- cuse diie interruption of your walk," said the bicycler. " There ia nothing to excuse, and I should 1^ happy to tell ^rou more deffllitely if I knew," replied ahei Gracefully lifting hia hat again, he mount- ed hia machine, rode to the house she had mentioned, and after a few moments joined his party, and told them the result of hia inquiries. "We never knew before that you were such a auBceptible follow," said one of hia companions, laughingly, sifter he bad told the result Of his inqairies. "Why didn't you go to the house first " asked the other. He made no reply to either, and seemed unusually indifferent to their attempted jokes. It has always been unexplainabje, and probably always will be, the instantaneous but lasting impressions that men and women sometimes make upon each other, â€" impress- ions that, under favorable conditions, throw the remainder of their lives into real and actual associoation, of greater or less intimacy, for the happiness or misery of all concerned and, on the other hand, if not amounting to this, never w holly losing pow- er or influence at different times, and in different ways, all through life. This woman who, from a moment's con- versatic u, had been able to cause immediate and noticeable abstraction and inattentive- ness on the part of the man who was always one of the most attentive and appreciative companions, had brought such a moment to his life, though he did not at once realize it in any great degree but he did realize that he meant to see her again, somehow. It was not so difficult a matter, after all for, in his inquiries and short conversation at the house to which she had directed him, he had learned tliat summer boarders were solicited. And following the thought came others as quickly that vacation time was near at hand what a place it would be for a man to rest in, to ride in, to fish in 1 etc. All the country around was attractive and picturesque roads good fishing good, so they told him; and besidesâ€" ob, well! let that take care of itself. In a week more he and one of his friends were domesticated at the house. IV. I never thought five weeks in a man's life could be so long. Can there be any way or anything that I have not thought of to- wards solving a problem that will turn the scale of two lives for the future years, for happiness or its reverse I begin to know my wife since she left me, â€" to see and un- derstand her better, I think, than when she was with me. I begin to see now that it was possibly the strong, intense individual- ity of her nature, coming in close contact with mine, that irritated and annoyed me, and aroused my impatience. I used to think often, before we were married, that her will would be hard to bend to another's and yet she had the noblest heart, â€" kind, lov- ing, impulsive, forgiving, charitable, high, and sincere in all its motives, but yet in constant conflict with her head perhaps I have not studied the heart enough. This letter before me doesn't help matters much in that direction, however â€" M June 10, 1882. My Hpsband â€" Believing that every sin- cere letter is worthy of an answer, I answer yours, though I understood you were not to communicate with me. It almost seemed like a love letter, and that you missed me very much but I dare not call it so, and attribute its being sent out of regard for my personal comfort as to manner of every-day living, etc. I thank you, and am glad to write that I am very comfortable in fact, this is an unusual place in every way. One funny thing I must tell you, and a joke I rather enjoy they all call me Miss Woodbury. In answering the advertisement of course I signed my name as usual, Emily A. W^oodbury and not being inquisitive people, and I not correcting their mistake, they took it for granted that I must be Mi^s I suppose â€" an old maid with some means, very likely, and here for rest and quiet. After I had been here a week two other ladies came, â€" a middle-aged lady and her very pretty young sister, â€" and a day or two later two gentlemen made their appearance. It seems that they were attracted by the beauty of the place when riding by a few days before on their bicycles. They are all really very delightful people as it hap- pens, and a good deal of the same mind, as they like to be let alone when they feel like it. Mr. Arnold and Mr. Barker (the two gentlemen) have made some very pleasing discoveries in riding around the country on their bicycles and, last night, for the first time, but perhaps not for the last, the two gentlemen, on their bicycles, and Miss Ray- mond and I, on very fair saddle horses, rode several miles and back, reaching home about nine o'clock, finding a jiice little lunch awaiting us. Mr. Barker says he often rides this way with his sister. All this in answer to your inquiries as to my surroundings and towards you, as you ask "how" so earnestly, like the friend I al- ways mean to be.â€" Sincerely, Emily. P.S. â€" li yon want to write occasionally, I shall be glad to answer. Humph Miss Woodbury Two gentle- men bicyclers Two lady horseback riders Nice little lunches I can see pretty well, what my wife will be the last! to see, what will come next on the programme for she ia an attractive woman, and unusually unconacioua of it. If she would only tell them she is married I should feel better satisfied. However, I'll not fret about it now as ahe aeema to be hav- ing a good time. And I'll bear this way of living aa long aa I can, anyway until we can come to a better underatanding aome way. V. ' Why all delights are rain but that most vam, which, with pain purchased, doth in- herit pain. ' He had not meant to tell her so soon, but everything helped to make it easy; the earnest impulsive nature within him could not withstand the maenetic power of the surrounding scenes of this closipg of a rare June day, and the stronger magnetism of the woman sitting beside him. He told her m the smcere, ardent language of an earnest and whole-souled man, to whom love has come unexpectedly and Man unlpoked for Kesesaion, that to loved her, tto* aajhey were companions to night Ioran*our, sO be wished for her harmonious companionahip for every future hour of life »?dâ€" With a strange look upon her face, sne interrupted him with, •• Pleasie, oh, I en- treat you to stop for a monent give me just a chance to think before you go fur- ther" The look of distress on her face as she appealed to him he could not interpret, but it quieted him at once. After a few moments of ailenee she turned to him, and, in a voice filled with emotion, said, "It was my duty long ago to be frank with you and if you can find it in your heart to forgive me for delaying it until now, it will be an hour that will stand out forever m my life. I am married; and, though not wishing to or thinking of deceiving anyone, I have allow- ed a mistake to pass uncorrected that was taken for granted aa correct. I w»nt you to believe that in our pleasant honra toge- ther I have had no thought or wiah to lead you on to thia. Tell me truly if you think I have." "No," aadly, "you haven't," was hia reply. She went on "I came here tix weeks ago, to the house where we are boarding, to find respite, or relief, or remedy, or some- thing,â€" I did not know what,â€" from troubes that hung like fast gathering shadows over two lives. I have been contented to dream, to sleep, to ride, to be social, â€" in fact, to do almost anything to help find a way out, â€" and that the days have been pleasant in many ways I cannot deny. I cannot ask you, as maybe many woman would, if you can forget at once, and simply be my friend. I have found out (though not perhaps until this very moment) that the man who really loves the one woman, or the woman who really loves the one man, cannot forget, and will never be resigned, more than outward- ly, to be simply the friend. But I do ask you, with humility, to forgive me, â€" forgive me for having brought you to caring for me. Can you " hesitatingly. A longer silence, and then he replied "Let me take your hand; let me look in your face, in your eyes. Yes, I forgive, though there is nothing to forgive. I thank you for giving me an insight into your noble, womanly nature. If my lovp is a hopeless one, I can never deem it a frivolous one, when the object is the woman you are and will ever be to me." After a silence that it seems hard to ever break, at last finding courage he said, "Y^ou will not think me ungallant if I ask you to allow me to leave you here, after helping you to your saddle, as it will not be dark for two hours yet, and the way home is a safe and familiar one I cannot go with you to night" â€" "I had rather you would leave me," she replied, with deep but un- spoken sympathy in her glance and tone and with his help mounted the horse they had left grazing by the roadside, and rode away. After standing where she had left him for a few moments, he walked to his bicycle that was standing by a stone wall near by, and, wheeling it to the road, stood looking at it as if it were human and in a sort of undertone, addressed it, saying, " Y'ou have been a good friend to me you brought me health when I thought it was gone beyond return. Be my still dear- er friend now. Help, in future days, to carry me where sunshine and brightness will shine into my inner life, that seems darken- ed forever. You brought me to her you take me away from her but still 1 do not blame you, and shall always believe in you, â€"my good companion, my faithful steed " After having walked some little way by its side, he mounted and rode away and, when all the inmates of "the second house on the left" were supposed to be sleeping, he rode into the yard, entered the house, and after leaving his machine in its accustomed place went to his room. VL A thoughtful, tired man, sitting at a desk writing, with plenty of work heaped around him, is aroused by a knock at the door, enough to respond with a faint " Come in.' He cannot see from where he sits who enters the door as it opens, but soon by his side he see "Emily " " Yes, Albert, I've come home." " Dear little girl, lay your head here on my shoulder. Look in my eyes, Emily. Are you any longer 'afraid sometimes' that I do not love you I know that you are not Your dear eyes are shining with the new light of awakened love, and this is truly a joyous homecomintr. Do I want you to tell me how you learned to know No my wife, I can guess and I trust you now ever, and always." ' "Albert, I'm too happy to believe this can last,â€" that I am with you never to leave you that you are mine, -I am yours. And 1 thin^ 1 have found out one secret. If you will try and be more patieni with me, lam sure I can be less impatient myself, more unselfish, more" â€" " Stop, Emily 1 I am the one to ask this of you and Tvhen I forget to be so, I de- serve to forfeit the love that never came to me until to day, in the same way and while we may always be 'friends,' can we not be lovers too " April now, always, and forever, my hua- band, my friend, my lover."

Turkish girls are unaffectedly modest. Those of the lower class who are engaged as servants m the houses of Frank residents are much preferred to Greeks or Armenians for their excellent behaviour, cleanliness and repard for truth. Looking upon marriage as their natural destiny they are careful of their reputations, and when married make first-rate housewives. No doubt a tourist who compares the lur- key of to-day with that of twenty-five years ago would find some departures from the strict womanly reserve which used to be the universal rule. The mistress of the harem dresses much like a French lady nowadays, reads French novels and playa the piano; though she has some gorgeous Turkish cos- tumes which she dona upon state occasions, such as the calvas, when she entertains other ladies. Calva means a cake, but it has come to designate a party at which the dainty is eaten. When a Turkish lady gives a calva her husband is excluded from the harem while the strange women are in the house. These guests begin to arrive toward 6, accom- panied by their maid servants and negroes carrying lanterns and bringing their chil- dren with them. Closely muflaed, they di- vest themselves of their burnouses in the ante-room, and put on delicate satin slip- pers which they have brought with them in bags. The reception rooms are brilliantly lighted up with pink wax candles and scent- ed with fragrant pastilles. There is no kiss- ing or hand shaking between the hostess and her guests; but each lady as she comes in lifts her hand gracefully to her heart, her lips, and her brow, which means, "I am devoted to you with heart, mouth, and mind." This mode of salutation, when smilingly performed is very pretty. The greetings being ended, the company seat themselves on chairs if there be any Frank ladies present, if not they betake themselves to the divans and carpets, while the chil- dren go off all together to be regaled in some other room. Cigarettes, coffee, and sweetmeats are handed round, and, while these things are being discussed, the ladies are bound to pay one another complements alK)ut their respective dresses, which are sure to be most sumptuous, and, indeed, are sometimes worth a fortune. After the coffee, dancing girls are introduced, and at this stage of the proceediugs the elderly ladies generally settle down to cards and back- gammon. In some houces, where Jhristlan manners have penetrated, a lady pianist rattles off waltzes and operatic music to amuse the crmpany; but this does not ex- clude the performance of the native dancing girls, whose gyrations and music with 1am- bourines and castanets are much appreciated. These almees are seldom older than 14, and no married woman ever joins the dance. Ojnstors Grown on Trees. For years the waters of Poquonoc River, Conn., have been noted as producing the most delicious oysters known in the world. The demand was far in excess of the supply. On account of the thick black mud that plastered the bed of the river, and which is fatal to oyster-culture, only a small margin of the bottom, a rocky strip far in shore, could be utilized by the oyster- giowers. It was not until three or four years ago that a speculative and inventive Yankee devised a plan for extending the oyster cultivation upon the mud bottoms. He went into his woods and cut down a forest of tough, wirv white birches, dragged them to the bank, bore them to his boat upon the river, and dumped them overboard, taking care that they should be left at proper intervals on the bcttom He haa an iaea that the oys- ter spawn would come sailing along in the season, catch hold of the birch boughs, and grow into a fabulous fortune for him. The idea was a good one, but not perfected. He allowed the birch to lie a suitable time and then pulled them up. Every bouch and twig was thick with half-grown bivalves, but the weight of the growing shells had dragged the brush down into the fatal mud, and the oysters had perished by the million' Enlightened by his failure he made an- other trial. He planted the birches upright on the bottom, setting them at an angle with the current. The submerged trees were from fifteen to twenty feet in length and the butts, which were three or four inches in diameter, were thrust three or four feet into the mud. Their tops just pricked through the waves at low tide It was just what the oysters wanted, a ready- made home They drifted as thick as snow- flakes to the bending boughs and pliant twigs Singly they were so small as to be almost invisible, but their legions speckled the trees with brownish patohes. The trees b^r?!'"' ^^ their load of growing shells, but the elastic wood kept the fruit clear of the mud.
