AT SIMPSON'S.
'Any letters for V. V. Van Cleef ?' in a
nervom, anxious voice, was asked by n well
fed, well clothed, close-cropped young fel
low of llie liotel clerfc.
'Ah ? what name ?' demanded that ele-
(ant functionary, not because he had not
heard perfectly well, but lo find time to
lounge over the ten feet intervening between
himself nml the letter boxes.
The name was repeated in a sharp, quick
tone.
'No, nothing.'
Tlenc look in C."
The clerk started; wondered what was up;
reflected that the new comer had brnnght
but little haggnge ; mentally resolved to
keep an eye on him ; shulrled over the let
ters in the 'C box; shook his head, and then
relapsed into an arm chair overcome by the
exertion.
Frank took the elevator, let himself into
his room, lit a cigar, reflected, nnd then
swore.
Eight years in Europe, home at last, sum
mer well under tho way, a fair Inheritance,
principally in Chicago property and a fair
prospect of being independent of his brush
the rest of his life such were the time nnd
circumstances tinder which ho found him
self. Nothing to swear at in that.
Hut a moderate wine bill, the tips to the
waiters and a bad run of luck at the pools,
made upon tho miles run in each twenty
four hours on the voyage over, had exhaust
ed the gold remaining in his pocket after he
bad paid bis passage money. His lawyers
and the executors of his late aunt Miranda's
estate, had been instructed, however, by the
previous mail to remit money to him at the
Ilrnnswick, so that was a matter of no mo
ment. Hut the remitlatico had not arrived.
Most of his baggage hail been expressed to
Chicago from the hold of the big Cunarder,
and in it tho address of his new lawyers.
'My lawyers, sound wel1,' he reflected,
'but I wish to the deuce they would send
me some money.'
Tuesday came but with it no letters. It
became annoying, tut still he could wait
Presently he went out for a stroll, found it
warm, and cursed the luck Hint kept him
from getting away from the heat and dust
to Newport, where he was to join some
friends with whom he had speut the winter
in Rome.
Entering the hotel the clerk handed him
a letter. Ah 1 money at last. No ; it was
a note addressed in an Anglo Itoston hand,
'Dear Mr. Van Cleef:
'Come nnd dine with us to night. We
saw your arrival in the l'artha's passenger
list in the mnriiing paper, and are anxious
to know how you are going to spend the
summer. Come at 7, Dining by sunlight
is like 'playing tea.' so we eat lute. Yours,
sinceiely, Maiiii:.
'No. 21 West Hth street.'
Now, who the j Marie, Marie I
don't know any Marie, especially any Ma
rie who is particularly interested in me,
and who writes a charming note, saying
things which with woman pass for wit, and,
smelling the paper, 'who uses extract of
violet liberally. Well, I'll be sure to go ;
it may divert my mind from my pecuniary
embarrassment. I'll have to make a clean
breast of it to tho clerk soon, and probably
be arrested for a swindler, A man who ex
pects remittances and don't know his law
yer's address, who has no baggage and wants
money to get to Chicago with, looks liken
sublimely cheeky confidence man.'
'Evening dress ; claw hammer coat, etc,
but no gloves, no ties j why money is a
momentary necessity, by Jove ?' said Frank
as he took these articles from his trunk.
I can't go to dinner nnd find out my un
known friends if I don't have gloves. Oh,
if there was only n Mont de Pielo in New
York by Jove, Simpson's I I will rise and
go unto my uncle aud say unto, 'Uncle, lend
uie $10.'
Frank laughed and then grew sober
again, There was a sense of degradation in
tht mere Idea, Then, with a shrug, and
taking out a box of jewelry, none of it ex
pensive he turned it over.
'Hello, here's just the thlug,' be thought,
as ho took out a locket. It was un old nf.
fair, a cameo, with the head nf tho Savior
on It. Around it curled a golden serpent
with brilliantly enameled scales and a pair
of 'pigeon's blood' ruby eyes, Frank had
picked it up in a little shop in London just
before be sailed for home. It was one of
the fancies in which he had begun to In
dulge himself when ho received tho first re
mittance from his new lawyer and new prop
erty.
'Tills baublo Is principally accountable
for my being short of money,' he thought.
'I will make It remember me.' On the back
of the quaint old locket were tho initials
V. 1). V. nnd below them 'M. E.' There
bad been a picture on It once, but there was
lelt only tho marks of tho knifo with which
It had been pried out. It was growing lale,
and calling a hack Frank jumped in and
told tho driver to tako him to tho New
Court House. Arrived there he told the
driver to wait, passed through tho building
and out the other door, walked briskly to
Simpson's, hesitated a moment, bolted in
the door and in a moment stood in a box nt
tho counter, where a poor woman was pawn
ing some clothing lor fond. Frank shud
dered, drew out the locket and laid it down,
A dark man took it up, looked at It, turn
ed It over, scrutinized the Initials, tested tho
gold on a rorner, and said laconically :
'How much ?'
Ten dollars.'
Tho man turned away, mado out the tick
et, handed Frank the money nnd ills du
plicate ticket, and turned to the next com
er. With .iBigh nt the atmosphere of misery
hanging nround the place, from tho dark
corners of which the hollow faces of the
specters of want and starvation seemed leer
ing nt him, Frank passed quickly out ot the
door, regained his cab, said to the driver :
'Ilrnnswick quick I' and rolled away.

Two little red lips quivered perceptibly,
and two big black eyes with tears. To bo
hungry absolutely, unpoetically and prac
tically hungry vas a novel experience lo
Ilessie Prang. To be hungry in a fashiona
ble lodging house with plenty down stnirs
in a well filled larder and cool and pleasant
dining room, was absolutely absurd. Sitting
In a pretty room, amid a mass of pretty
feminine knick knacks and bric-a-brac,hear-ing
tho rattle of knives and forks come tip
on tho air from the lunch tables below, and
yet be hungry was positively maddeningly
incongruous,' she thought. To be sure there
was no reasons why she should not have
gone to the land-lady and explained her
situation and been sure of proper treatment,
but they bad been in tho house but a few
days, nnd had been taking their meals out
at neighboring restaurant. Here's mother
had been called nwny to visit a sick sister
who was HI, and she had left her little girl
alone, not without misgivings, and the night
before liessic had lost her purse or had her
pocket picked coming from dinner ; at any
rate it was gone, and with it the money
which was to have bought her fond for tho
next two days. A practical woman would
have done the obvious thing and interview
ed her land-lady. Hut I!esio was even
more than most women sensitive about go
ing to strangers when in trouble, especially
about money matters, and feared toencount
er suspicion, and nt lunch time was raven
ously hungry. What a etir-e a good appe
tite is at times I Then it occurred to her
that she had heard her cousin Tom joke
about his 'Uncle,' and that ho was alluding
to a pawn-broker. What a homed thing a
pawn-broker must bo? A kind of cross be
tween a Shylock and a Fagin, she thought,
and they would ogle her perhaps. Oh, no !
she would starve before she would go there.
Hut as the afternoon wore on and hunger
increased, and with it her perplexity, she
began to cry. Hut crying don't help mat
ters nny ; on the contrary the pangs of
hunger increased, aud with them her deter
initiation to llnd her cousin Tom's Uncle.
She resolved that no one hhould know of
her perplexity but herselfnot even 11111111111,1,
nor of her visit to the pawnbroker's never
that.'
From tinder :i mass nf ribbons and laces,
artificial flowers and dainty lace handker
chiefs, tumbled in a bureau-drawer, she
fished nut a small box, and took from it a
queer old locket. It was a carved head of
Christ, surrounded by abrilliautly enameled
snake with ruby eyes, and ou tho back the
initials M. E., and underneath, V. I). V.
'Poor old grandma ; how horrified you
would be if you only knew, nnd hadn't been
dead these ten years I' sho said tn herself
softly, as she put the locket hack into its
place, and ran down stairs in the late sum
mer afternoon.
It was along walk down Uroadway, the
pavements were hot and corched her feet,
her face grew Hushed with exertion.her black
hair clung damply to her white forehead
Ilesldes,she was weak from long fasting. She
thought at last that she did not know where
sho was going, but she mustered up courage
to ask a policemen. He eyed her curiously,
and told her civilly enough where to go.
Hot waves of crimson dyed her lace and
neck as she pas-ed in at the door way under
the trio of golden balls and stood at the
counter. She heard a poor woman nexther
refused the amount she begged for on an old
shawl. It was moth-eaten, and they did not
want it at any price.
'Then a voice said :
'Well, Miss?'
She produced the locket.
'How much V aftern hurried examination
she was relieved to see that the man took
her novel situation cooly enough, nnd sho
spoke for the first time.
'len dollars, please.
The money was counted out, she bestow
ed $1 of it ou the poor womnn whno shawl
had been rejected and who stood in a dned
way on tbo sidiwalk, escaped from her
thanks into a Fourth avenue car, nnd was
soon bathing In her cool room, and forget
ful, now that she had money, of her hung
er. Just then a noto reached her.
'Dl'aukst Unft!U : Ho come over and
dine. Fred and I are in town a day or two.
In haste, thine.
Maiiiii.
'No. 2S West Forty-fourth street.'
'Put money in thy purse' and thou shalt
be invited to dinner,' thought Hessie, as she
mentally resolved to goat onco to her old
school fellow and her husband.
III.
'Mr, Van Cleef.' said the saino servant
opening the door of tho drawing-room of
No. 2S West Fortli-fuurtb street and Frank
was ushered into the cool rooms and tbo
prexeuceof u tall, fine-looking man, whom
lie had never seen before In his life, n blonde
matronly little woman ,thnt's Marie,' he
thought and n charming girl in whlte.wlth
great black eyes, and a mass of soft, black
hair rolled upon the small, clean cut head
For n moment the sight was cmbarasslng.
Then Mr. Francklyu stepped forward, nnd
Frnnk said :
'Thero seem to hn somo mlslnke ; I have
a namesake somewhere.'
'Oh, no ; wo are cousins to your lale Aunt
Miranda, who just made you her legatee,
and as you hnvo come home at last wo mean
now that you are here, to mako you accept
a cousin's place In our house and our friend
ship,' said Mr, Francklyu,
It is enough to say that the dinner was
perfect, the hostess charming, tho host n jol
ly good fellow and Hessie so bewitching that
Frank was In love over bend nnd ears before
the dinner was finished.
The letter from 'my lawyers' was nt tho
lintel when Frnnk returned, covered wilh
tho postmarks of half tho 'New lirunswlck'
In tho country, among which It had travelled
while lie was waiting for It nt the Hottl
llrutiswlck. The last murmur llie mnde as
ho dropped off to sleep was, 'Found an 'un
cle,' two cousins nnd and' ' and he was
dreaming of a black eyed girl lu whito in
another minute.
IV.
The phlegmatic clerkjat the pawnbroker's
turned over two lockets apparently just alike
and examined them curiously, then put
them back in their wrappers and in the pale.
Tho next day both lockets wcro redeemed.
They thought it curious at the moment, but
odd things are of dally occurrence In the
office of n pawnbroker, tho theater of tho
daily tragedy of woo and wnnt, poverty,
hunger nni dirt.
Frank looked nt tho locket when he reach
ed his Hotel, it was the same. There wss
tho little bright spot where the pawnbroker's
ncid had touched the corner of the casp, but
the rest was the same exactly. No bo rub
bed his eyes whereas when be took tho
locket to the pawnbroker the initials on the
case had read :
v. 1). v.
Of this hn was perfectly sure ; yet ; hero
now, they were plainly reversed, aud read :
si. n.
v. n. v.
lie puzzled over it sonio time. Then be
went down in a car and demttided of the
pawnbroker an explanation. The man Old
hun of the two lockets, exactly alike, left
within an hour of eacli othpr on the precd-
ngd.iy, each pledged for $10, each redeem
ed in the morning, and explanations how
they must havo been changed, Tho young
man hoped tbnt there was no harm done,
remembered that the other locket wrs left
by a 'young woman ;' really didn't rem m'i-
er that she looked like, nnd then vent buck
to his work. Frank returned homepuz.U-d.
It really didn't matter; it was only achancu
purchase of a unique trille in jewelry; ho
hadn't tho remotest idea whose the initials
were, hut he was superstitious about it, and
it troubled him. That tho locket had a
louhle in New York thero could bo no
loubt. nnd so Frank resolved not to tell the
story, but to wear it on his watch chain, in
the hope sometime to nttrack the attention
of some one who could solvo the mystery.
'Mamma,' cried Iiessie the next day, when
her confession made, she had redeemed the
piecious locket and was examining it,'Mum
ma, this is not my locket. This is the other
one. 1 ins is poor grandma s gage d nmour
to her faithless lover eomc back to her
grandchild ; see, sep,' s-ho rattled 011 in wild
excitement. Mrs. Prayne looked sharply,
saw the reversed initials, and was as excited
in a moment as Hesse. Cousin Tom was
Hip itched to the pawnbroker's for informa
tion. He learn;d but little more than
Frank, and so the mystery was talked of
and speculated upon for the next week.
Grandma's love storv was told over nnd over.
lirielly it was this : Mary Emerson and Van
Dyko edder were lovers years before. Tliey
exchanged lockets made for them. Vedder
went sailing away nut into the West and
married, leaving grandma, then young, prtt
ty, to soon console hen-elf with another lov
er and husband. She always kept the lock
et and ,1 warm spot in her heart, as every
woman does for the man whom she once
loved. Hut she never saw or heard of him
again in life. Hessie received her blessing,
her Utile fortune, and the precious locket
from grandma on her death-bed. And now,
after fifty years and without a clow, the
lockets wero changid by some mysterious
agency.
VI.
Two months Infer Hessie nnd Frank mot
again at the FrancWyns' pretty house at
Newport. They had both forgotten the
lockets, nnd soon forgot tho world in each
other.
Ono summer evening Hessie promised to
be ids wife, and, as soon as two littlo white
arms went up arouud his neck, Frank was
guilty of most unconventional proceeding,
He actually was surprised out of taking im
mediate advantage of his newly acquired
privileges. Among the lace about Hefio't
neck rested tbo other locket. The love
tokens still.
Hesslo told her grandmother's little ro
mance, and tbo iuitlals were explained to
hr.ink, who exclaimed, almost with awe
'Van Dyke Vedder, the faithless lover o
your grandmother, Mary Emerson, was my
grandfather.'

When the peddler rang Mr. lllrd's door
bell the other dny, Mr, Hint opened the
door, Mr. Hlrd had tho bady on his nrm
nnd had four other children nt his heels,
'Is Iho lady of the houso in?' asked the
peddler.
'Certainly sho isn't' replied the. bird, 'she
Is out, She Is perennially and eternally
out ?'
'Where can I see her ?'
Why, go down to tho woman suffrage rltib
room; If siio isn't there go to tho society
for tho prevention of cruelty to animals J
and If she isn't there visit the hall of the as
sociation for alleviating the miseries of the
Senegnmlilans ; and if sho has finished up
there, look for her at the church aid society,
or nt the Ninth ward soup house, or tho
home of Ihe one-legged, or at the rcfugo of
infirm dogs, or at the hospital of tho
asthmntic, or nt tho St. Pollycarp orphan
asylum, or at some of these places. If you
get on her track, you'll see more paupers
and strong-minded women nnd undercloth
ing for tho heathen than you ever saw in
the whole courso of your life.'
'I wanted to sell her a cold-handled flat
iron, just out. Do you think sho will buy
one?'
'She will if you can prove thnt the naked
cannibals in Senegambia aro yearning for
cold-handled flat irons. She would buy
diamond breastpins for those niggers if they
wanted them, I believe,'
'I intended nlso to ofTer her .1 new kind of
immovable hairpin which '
'All right. You just go down to the home
for tho one-legged nnd persuade those nip
ples lo cry for immovable hairpins, nud
she'll order 'em by the ton.
'Has sho any children ?'
'Well, I'm the ono tbatnppears lobe hav
ing 'em jut now, anyhow.'
'Ilecniise I have a gum-top for n feeding
bottle that is nicest thing you over saw.'
'Now,' slid Mr. Hird, I'll tell you what
ynu do. You get those paupers to swear
they can't eat the soup they get at the soup
house with spoons ; they must have it from
bottles with a rubber muzzle, nnd Mrs, Hird
will keep you so busy supplying the demand
that you won't have any chance to sleep.
You just try it. Buy up the paupers I Bribe
'em.'
'How'll I know her if I see her ?'
'Why, she's a very large woman with a
bent nnp, nnd talks all tho time. You'll
hear her talk as soon you get within a mile
of her. She'll ask you to subscribe to the
Senegambiau fund and and tn the asthmat
ic asylum before you ran get breath. Prob
ably she'll read you four or live letters from
reformed cannibals. Hut don't you mind
'em. My opinion is she wrote them her--1I1.'
And with baby singing a vociferous solo,
and the other children clinging to his legs,
Mr. Bird retreated and shut the door. Tho
peddler had determined to propose lo a girl
that night. Hn changed his mind nnd rp
silvid to remain a bachelor. Cincinnati

To reai-ure the timid and nervous in this
senon of thunder storms, eomo calculations
and directions for security, which from the
frequent cccurenco nnd unusual severity of
thci-o storms, might not bo acceptable to
snnip of our renders, are given. Thero are
70,1100 chances t one of nn individual be
ing killed in this way in the whole vear,
Hut ns there are, perhaps ten of these norms
in a season, the chances of being killed in
anv one of theso "tonus is as 700,000 lu one.
At Ihe worst, there seems to be halt a mil
lion chances against a timid lady's having
her tirror realized, according to the doc
trine of ehnnre. If she lies down in her
fright, as she is likely tn do, on either a fca-
the r bed or hair in-utrejs, these chances in
her favor are multiplied nt least a million.
another conflation is that she has little to
apprehend from n flash ot lightening which
she has hiture lo lie.
As light travels 217, 2C0 miles in a second,
andsounil only 1,112 feet in the same time,
you can easily compute the distance of the
plrulrie discharge. If 1.72 seconds, or six
bea'.s of ihe pulp elapse between the light
ning and tho thunder, the discharge is a
mile nir. To guard against possible dama-
es, on its near approach, you may imulale
your bed or chair by putting their legs on
glass. 1'eathers nnl hair all'ird great secur
ity. There is also less danger after the rain
lias begun to fall copiously than before, for
it moist atmosphere serves as a conductor
fur the electric fluid, diffusing It, and con
veying it to the enrih. A man who is wet,
being a better conducter than a tree, which
cannot lie so thoroughly wetted, ought not
stand miner one ; aju animals, on account
of the moisture in their bodies, are always
better c inductors than trees. But! thoJgh
wrong to staud near a tree, you will bo very
safe a little beyond the extent of its brauch
es a position which ought to be chosen, as
the higher object will tako the liglitenin
first or you might btaud on dry wool or
silk; The middle of a room is safer than
near a partition, nnd this, than near the ex
terior wall. A building is a better protec
tion than a tree, but a barn or stable contain
ing wet grain or bay is worse than tho open
field. Sitting 011 horseback, or in a car
riago is dangerous. To overcome excessive
alarm nt lightning not only conduces to
comfort, but enables one to contemplate at
ease by far the most sublime spectacle in
nature.
