his gaze, said :
'Se, her, boy j I've only got a fifty-cent
piece, and its more money than I ought to

'Yes sir,' said the boy, gleefully, as he
scrambled up the side of the wheel. 'I will
be here, sure.'
'Paul Parker, you're a fool ! said the wo
man, angrily. 'You scatter your money about
as though there was no end to it. Do vou

'I hope so, wife,' said the old man, touch

and urging him into a sleepy jog-trot. I

The blistering August sunshine was pour-
I ing into a little garret room in one of the
most squalid and neglected purlicns of the
town, where a brutal-looking man sat smok
ing a short black pipe, and two or three

was crouched in a corner, wistfully watch
ing the door, as if resolved to avail himself
of the first chance that offered itself for
escape.
There was a wild beauty about the boy,
in spite of his svvarthy cheeks and forlorn
uniform of rags, and an attractiveness that
was difficult to understand.' His brow, over
shadowed by thick black locks, was fiank
und open ; his eyes were soft and liquid, and
there were both spirit and gentleness in the
well outlined mouth. Had Nino Berlani

Presently the man knocked the ashes
from his pipe and laid it down, with a vio
ious sidc-loog glance at the boy.
'So you'd got fifty cents hid away, you
was going to gammon me out of, eh ?' he
demanded. 'You young vagabond, I'd like
to know what you meun by it !'
'It was mine,' sobbed the boy ; 'I earned

said Nino, entreatingly, as his eyes marked
the slowly creeping tide of sunshine along
tne floor tllat formei his only substitute for
a clock
'Well, you won't do no such thing !' said
the man, evidently in a most contrary and
quarrelsome mood. 'Go back to your bench
again ; do you bear J You're not goin' to stir
out o' this before night, and not then, unless
you behave yourself.'
'I'll be back in ten mkutes, sir ; I will,
indeed.'
'Hold your noise !' brutally ejaculated his
irate keeper. 'I tell you you shan't stir an
other peg; there, now ! Dave, to one of the
other boys, 'give us a light here for this
pipe.
Nino, watching his opportunity, as a wild
beast might watch for an escape from its
cage, gave a forward dart just as the man
stooped over to rub his match asainst the
sole of his boot. But he was not quite quick
enough ; his tyrant seized him rudely by
the arm, and slung him across the floor as
if he had been a toy. He fell, bis temple
striking against the leg of a bedstead stand
ing in the corner, and lay there quite insensible.
'.Blest if I don't think he's done for. dad.1
said one of the hitherto impassive spectators
of toe soene, a boy of thirteen, who was gen
erally dressed as a 'wondering Bavarian"
with tambourine and bells.
'Let him alone, I say,' snarled the father,
'I'll teach him a lesson.'
Just then the bell in the old square tow
er ot the town clock struck three.
'I told you he wouldn't be here, Paul 1'
exultantly exclaimed Mrs. Parker, project
ing ber keen gray eyes into every nook and
corner around the dull street in frootof the
'West-Landhill Ilpuse of, Entertainment
for Man and Beast.' 'I knew it! Now what
do you think of your fine, honest boy"
Paul Parker's countenance clouded visi
bly.
I'm sorty for it, wife sorry from the
bottom of my heart. I somehow thought
he was different from tho common lot of
'em, I s'pose I hadn't might to expect mueh
from a lad brought up in the streets. Well,
well, let's drive on.'
The swift rolling years had syrinkled
their silver blos&otns more plentifully on
the head of Paul Parker, and plowed deep
lines in his wife's face. The little irirl at
their fireside had grown into a tall, hand
some young woman. Once more we enter
the inner sanctum of their lives.
'It is father's step, mother,' said Lucy
Parler, jumping up to open the door.
Well, father, what luck ?'
Bad enough, child,' said old Paul, meek
ly slaking the powdery ftinge of snow
from his overcoat. 'Milton's down ag'n
with fev'r ague ; his wife's poorly, and
Brute ha? had a stroke, so ho can't work
no nore.'
Mnd they did'nt pay you the money?
laul you .were a fool fur ever lendit.g
it, sfrteked his wife shrilly. 'And what
are veto do, with lawjer Martin written
and written for the money we owe him V
'Ve can do nothing, wife."
' Ve shall be scld out at auctian and dye
ip tile poor house yet. Oh, Paul, why
didtt you pay more heed to what I've al
wayl kept tell'gi' you V
'Xut so bad as that, L hope,' said the old
man dieerily, though the muscles of his
lip atd brow quivered.
'Father, is St. Johu Martin the Leeds
strett Lawyer, to whoai we owe this money T
'lies, what do you know about him V
much ; but I met his son at several
parses last full, and I I think, if you
were to go there aud tell him just how it is,
or write, even
No use,' croaked Mrs. Parker, despair
iaglr, 'other folks aint so ready to let go of
their money as your father is, Lucy.'
'Iay be it's worth trying,' said old
Paul, hopefully, 'we'll wiite this very
night and next week we'll go up to Boston
and see what answer he makes us.'
And then Luo, blushing like a sweet
pei ran to got the pen and paper, timidly
trtsting in the efficacy of her plan.
For his father cau't be so very hard
Iicirtcd,' she thought, and are so very rich
that surely they will be willing to wait for
this five hundred dollars until we can pay
it.'
The elegantly furnished little office on
Leeds street did not often have such outre
equipages diawn up before it as Paul Par
ker's mud-be-splashed box wagon and shag
gy old pony, aud tho elegantly attired
young lawyer, who sat at the desk examin
ing some papers, glanced up in surprise as
the blooming girl and the bent old man en.
tered together, like 3Iay and December,
'Lucy !'
'Ninian ! I thought your father I did
not know that "
'My father is detained at his country
seat, and I am acting member of the firm.
He took me into partnership last week,
and this is '
He turned inquiringly, and with some
thing of a start, to the brown faced old
man, who stood modestly in the back
ground. Lucy introduced her father, aud
BUted their busidess, with a profusion ot
very becoming blushes. She had not ex
pected to fiud her gallant young cavalier of
the past fall in the office of St. John Mar
tin. 'We are in very straightened circumstan
ces, Mr. Martin,' concluded Lucy,' and my
father cannot at present hope to discharge
this dept, but I am soon to have a very
good situation in Madame Elvaine's school
as music teacher, and we oan get along
and pay a part at a time it your father
would be so kind as to wait a little'
Lucy stopped short ; her voice was get
ting unsteady, and she was far too proud
to yeild to the fast couiing tears in Ninian
Martin's presoncc,
The young mac hod listened in silence.
pnt now ho took a tin box from its shelf in
the safe and unlocking it disclosed sundry
packages of labelled notes, receipts etc
'Let me see,' he said running his eye
over them, 'it was a note for five hundred
dollars, I believe.'
'Yes, sir,' nnswered the old man, 'for
five hundred dollars.'
'Is this your note?'
'Yes, sir.'
Ninian Martin tore it in two, and laid
the fragments on the fire. Paul Parker
and Lucy gazed in astonishment as the
lawyer lilted his dark eyes calmly toward
them.
Mr. Parker, yon will please consider
that you have this day received payment
for a very old debt. We have balanced
accounts.'
'Sir, I don't understand you,' said the
old man. 'I don't remember
'But I do. It is rather more than ten
years Mr. Parker, since you put that mon
ey at interest.'
'Sir!''
'I will be more plain with you,' said the
young man, smiling. 'Perhaps Miss Par
ker is not aware that I am only the adopted
son of my more than father. My real name
is Aiuo Berlani. I am an Italian by birth
Jnst ten years ago I was begging in the
streets of Landeill, starved and penniless
A kind hand you know, Mr. Parker ex
tended itself to me in the hour of heed.'
The old man's face lighted up.
I uo remember now. It wis a fifty
cent piece j and I told you to conao ba;k
just a week from that time and '
Ana l did nol come. .No, but I tried
my very best to come, but was prevented
by the brutality of the man whose slave
and drudge I was. Well, I begged my
way to J5oston, having run away from my
tyrant. St. John Martin found me one
night in ihe streets, perishing from cold
and starvation. He had just lost his only
chi,d, a boy of about my own age, and not
unlike me in personal appearance, and
somehow I seemed to take the sore, vacant
place In l.ia heart. T resolved that if evor
it lay in my; power I would return the gift a
thousandfold. But I never dreamed that
Lucy's father was my benefactor.'
He turned to her with a bright smile, as
he concluded, whilo tho brown faco of old
Paul Parker worked with emotions he could
not couceal.
'I thought you wouldu't cheated me
boy; I thought your your face was a good
ana true one ! But I ha'n't no ri-'ht to
your generosity. Your Father '
'My father and I are one, sir in thought,
deed and wish.
'I don't know how to thank you, young
man.'
'Then do not attempt it. Perhaps one
of these days I may ask you for yet more
favors.'
Old Taul went homo to his wife sedate
ly triumphant.
'Wife you've said 'I told you so,' all your
lile ; now it s my turn.'
'What on aiith do you mean?' grumbled
his ascctio helpmate. I do believe you're
getting in your dotage.'
'May be I am ; in that case though I
I wish I'd got into it long ago.'
And ho told his adventure, while Lucy
sat by smiling like a morning iu May.
'Didn 1 1 invest that fifty to a pretty good
advantage V ho atked.
'Well, I never !' was her ultimalutn.
'lie wants new favors some day from me.
What do you say mother ? Cun we spare
our little girl here V
'Don't, father !' ciied Lucy, hiding her
face; but she didn't look very angry after
all. Wood's Household ilmjnzine.
Dancing Party Broken Up The
latest and most novel way for breaking up
a daucing party, was successfully practiced
on the" steamer Tieindeer on the occasion of
the return trip of an excursion from San

under their arms, to tarry for the night.
