THE SNUFF-COLOltED SUIT.
I scarcely know how it happened, but a
timber must have fallen and struck me on
tho head.
Tlio tiling that I realized after it was that
I was straight and still on something hard,
nnd when I tried to move myself and speak,
I found it impossiblo to do so. I concluded
that I must bo in some very tight, dark
place, for I could not sec ; in fact I soon
learned that, though perfectly consciom,
I could do nothing but hear. A door opened
and footsteps approached; but I felt a cloth
taken from my face, and a voieo which I
rcco2iiued as that of Mr. Jones, tho father
of my wife that was to be said:
"Ho hasn t changed much," and his com
panion, whoso voice I knew to be tho village
undertaker, Hopkins byname, lightly:
"Better looking dead than alive. How
docs Jerusha feel about it ? Take on much."
Oh, no, she had her eye on another fel
low, anyhow, and a better match, too, ex
cepting the money part. Though I had
nothing againit Ren. only ho didn't know
much and w.n about the homeliest man I
ever knew. Such a month ; why it really
seemed as though he was going to swallow
knife, plnte and all, when ho opened it at
dinner."
"Well," said the cheerful voice of Hop
kins, ''he'll never open his mouth again j"
and then he proceeded to measure mo for a
collin, for it seemed that I was dead, as they
thought I was, which was all tho same to
the greedy pocket of tho unkcrtakcr. I had
heard of undertakers who always whistled
joyfully when they got a measure, but I
never believed it before. Rut. tlio man act
ually whistled a subdued dancing tune when
he measured me, and it seemed to mo as if
three or four icicles were rolling down my
back to tho music of his whistle.
His duty done, they covered my face again
and left me to my own reflections which
were not particularly comforting, although I
had often heard it remarked, that meditation
was good for the soul, and that was tho best
chance I ever had of trying it.
An hour mu-t havo passed when the door
again opened, and two persons came whis
pering along td where I lay, and the voice of
my promised wife fell upon my ear.
"I dread to look at him, Rob; ho was so
mortally homely alive, he must be frightful
dead "
I ground my teeth in imagination, as I re
membered how often she had gone into rap'
tures, or pretended to, over my noble brow
and expressive mouth ; and how she had of
ten declared that if I were taken away from
lcrshe would surely pino away and die,
Ono of them raised the cloth, and I knew
they were looking at me. Hob. was her sec
ond cousin and I knew ho was that "other
fellow," whom her father had mentioned.
'Seems to me you don't feel very bad
about his dying, 'Ruiha," remarked Rob.
meditatively.
"Well, to tell the truth," said my dear be
trothed, "I don't care much about it. If he
had lived I should havo married him, be
causo ho was rich, and father wanted me to ;
but I was getting about sick of my bargain,
for 1 knew I should always bo ashamed of
lim, Iib looked eo much like a baboon."
"No, 1 didn't! My aflections were wasted
long ago upon ono who never returned my
ove;" and my fast fading idol sighed
heavily.
They had covered my face by this time,
and were standing a few steps from where I
lay.
"About how Ions ago, 'Rusha? ' asked
Rob.
"A year or such a matter," with another
deep sigh, which ended in a fit of sneezing.
"About this timo I went away ?" interro
gated the cautious Rob, coughing a little.
"Well, yes, some'res near," assented my
dear affianced.
'Now, Jerusha, you don't mean to insinu
ate that I "
I don't mean to insinuate, anything, Rob.
Smith !" nnd the angelic sweetness of her
voice was somewhat sharpened.
"Now, sec here, 'Rusha, I'vo loved you
ever since you were kneo high to a gopher,
but I thought when you camo homo that you
was sweet on that other chap; but I swan I
believe you liked mo nil the timo I'1
"Oil, Rob !" said my was-to-be, in n gush
ing sort of way,
"Mine own Jerusha!" remarked Rob,
Then I heard nsubduedrush, accompauici'
by violent Hp explosions. I tried to kick or
grato my teeth, or do something to relievo
my outraged feelings, but not n kick nor n
crnto could I raise. It was an awful fix to
bo in, but I bad to stand it, or rather lay it,
so I laid still and let'em nlono until they got
tired of it, and then they went out, nnd
was again left to my own pleasant reflec
tlons,
Night came, nnd so did n lot of young fel
lows witli their girls, to sit up with mo ; am:
they had a jolly time of It, although it was
against my principles to enjoy it on so sol
emu an occasion.
I It seemed au go until morning, lut it
camo at last and tlioy went nwny. I heard
thtm say that I was to bo buried thnt day
nt two o'clock, and I was beginning to feel
decidedly shaky, whon Jerusha nnd her
mother camo into tho room nnd began ar
ranging far tho funeral.
'"Rusha," said her mother, "hero is that
snuff-colored suit of poor Ren's ; of courso
he'll never havo any more tiso for clothes, so
just put them away among your carpet-rags j
they'll makon splendid stripe."
Now that particular suit of clothes was
just tho neatest ono I ever owned, arm holes,
collars, wrist bands, buttons, nil just tho
tiling, and my blood boiled to hear them talk
so cooly of using them for stripes in a rag
carpet. They kept on talking ns they swept,
dusted and cleaned up tlio room,
"Rob. says ho will tako tho Martin farm
to workjhls year," said Jerusha, cheerfully,
and as soon as wo nro married wo aro going
to housekeeping in that littio cottage close
to tho road. Now I must get my carpet
done as soon as possible, fori want it in that
littio front room. Thcso duds of Ren's will
make out rags enough, I guess. His folks
live ho far away they will never inquire
about his clothes. Now, if it wasn't for tlio
looks of it, we would ask old Mother Smith
about coloring yellow ; she's suro to bo hero
to-day."
I was getting very mad now, indeed. I
felt thnt thecrisiswas near,and that I should
either die or cxplodo if they did not let my
snufT-colorcdsuit alone. Jerush picked them
up I knew it for I heard tho buckles and
buttons jingle and mado for tlio door. I
tried to shako my fistand yell at her, but all
in vain, I laid there, outwardly as quiet as
a lamb, inwardly boiling witli wrath. It
was too much ; tho deepest trance could not
have held out against tho loss of that suit.
Willi a powerful efibrt I sprang up and
screamed. Jerusha dropped my clothes and
her mother the duster, and both lied from
the room and tho house, never stopping un
til they reached Dr. Rrown's across the.
street. With difficulty I managed to get
my clothes. I had just got them fairly on,
when Mrs. Jones and her daughter, followed
by a numerous company of men, women and
children, came peering cautiously into tho
room. I hat on my board and looked at
them Such n sacred looking crowd was
enough to atnuso an owl, so I laughed ; I
knew it was unbecoming; but I couldn't
have helped it if they had chucked' me into
my coflin which tho undertaker wasjust
carrying past the window nnd buried mo the
next minute. I laughed until I jarred the
chair out from under ono end of the board,
and down I went with a crash. Then the
doctor ventured into tho room, saying, rath
er dubiously :
"So you are not dead yet, Ren?"
"Well, no, not exactly," I replied, "sorry
to disappoint my friends nbout tho funeral,
however."
'Yes," he said, rather absently, "bad,
rather that is ahem !"
"Fooled out of that snufl-colored stripe 1"
I thought as I looked at Jerusha.
"Go and speak witli him," said her father,
in a stage whisper. "He's got the stamps,
and you had better marry him after all."
They began to gather around mo and con
gratulate mo on my escape. I noticed thnt
they cried a great deal more now than when
I was dead. Jerusha came and hung around
my neck, shivering desperately. I gave her
a not over gentle push and told her to wait
next time until I was safely buried until she
set her heart on my old clothes.
"Oh, lam so glad!" sho slid sweetly,
without appearing to notice what I said about
clothes "that you are not dead, Renny,
dear. My heart seemed all withered nnd
broken to see you lying all cold and white.
I wept bitterly over your pale face, my
beloved."
"Yes," I replied, "I heard you and Rob.
taking on terrible. It was a lucky die for
me."
"Cauld you hear?" she gasped.
"I rather think I could some," I replied.
She looked towar.l the door, but it was crowd
ed full, so she made a dive for the open win
dow, and went through it liko a deer. She
shut herself up in a smoko house, and would
not come out until I had left tho house,

with me again ; she is living a life of single

used in some parts of F.nglnnd ; for oxnm-
pie, 'to cover a house Is to hell it, ni.d the
person by whom it is done is a heller.1 "
Tlio Rev. Albert Rarnes, I). I) , (Prcsby-
tcrinu), In his notes on tho "Acts of tho
Apostles (11, 21),8avfl, "Hell is u saxon
word, derived from l'lelen, to cover, nnd dc-
noting literally n 'covered or deep place.' "
There r.ro only four words in the Riblo
translated hell, h: Shcot, Hades, Tartarus
and Gehenna.
Sheol is n' Hebrew word, and of course
only found in tlio Old Testament; it occurs
in slxtv-four instances, in thirty-two of
which it is rendered hell, nnd in tlio other
thirty-two, "pit" or "grave."
Tartarus docs not really occur at all, but a
denominative verb derived from it, which (2
Peter, ii, 4) is rendered "cast down to hell."
Gehenna occurs twelve times.
In tho common English version the word
hell occurs in both Testaments fifty-five
times. (Whittcmoro's Notes and Illustra
tions, p. l8.)
Ur. Rarnes says Mco; and atca originally
meant "tho dark, unknown regions of tho

abomination, detestation (from Toph, to i thought this mere trifling at the moment,
vomit with loathing), (Jer. xxxl, 32 ; xix, G;
2 Kings, xxiii, 10). After these sacrifices
had ceased, tho place was de-erted and made
one of loathing and horror. Tho pious king
Jonah, caused it to be polluted (2 Kings
xxiii, 10), that is, he caused to be carried
there all tlio filth of the city of Jerusalem.
It would seem that the custom of desecrating
this place was continued in after days down
to the period when our Saviour was on earth;
perpetual fires were kept up, in order to con
sume tho offal that was carried there; and as
tho same offal would breed worms (for so all
putrifying meat does) hence comes the ex
pression, "Whero tho worm dietli not and
the firo is not quenched" (Excget, Essays, p
p. 140, 141.)
