hull's rearing, therefore, had been on ab.nii

People said the new duties would prove

fragile in her slight little body, though
there was nothing tickly-lookiug about htr
There was a fresh, though delicate color in
her cheek, life in her blue eyes, and in all
her movements a freeneas which asserted an
elastic nature
When she was IS her father was found
dead at his desk. At once all the l.imily in
come was cut off. Tom, at that time, was
studying bookkeeping, and in ussistiu,
his father, hud somo practice in the work.

and very red with weeping.
'I don't see how you can bo ir to think of
such things iu our great sorrow,' said Tom.
'I want nothing but to lio down and die.'
Ivah's lace was white and pinched, but
her eyes seemed looking away to the guiding
star of duty
'Hut dear,' she said, 'we have got to go on
living. It would bo selfish an I cowardly
for either of us to die and leave the other.
And then, loo, (hero is our baby, There is
just one way. Tom; we must find where our
duty lies and go to meet it. Our duty is to

Harris
Ilrolhers would not pay mo a
thousand dollars,' said Tom.
'Of course not,' said Ivah 'You're a new
hand, l'crhaps they would not pay you
anything at the start; but it would be much
if you could even secure tho place.
They need an experienced bookkeeper.
I could not do their work,' Tom said, de
jectedly,
'I could help you, Tom,' said Ivah, cheer-
ingly. 'You could bring tho books homo
and wo could work together at night after I
get baby asleep.'
'I've no idea that they would givo mo a
trial.'
'May I go ask them too?
Tom's silence gave consent, and Ivah
went.
Her father had been in the employ of
Harris llrothers lor twenty-three years.
They were kindly dispo-ed toward her and
Tom; they would like it if lie could tako the
father's place; tliey hardly thought he could
llll it. Yes, they were willing ho should
try.
Tom was a beginner; his brain was cloud
ed with sorrow; his heart ached. He felt
such a dread of tlio future with its sudden
responsibilities, that ho must have failed
but for Ivah's words of courage and hand of
help.
In the most desponding mood, when ho
was ready to let g, to lot fate como in,
there was tho sister, patient nnd brave,
to bring forward reserve forces and save
the day.
Never a word had slio nb jtit her own
heartache; never a word of the hard day
passed nt washing, ironing or baking, with
baby's hindering little hands to he kept from
the scalding water or the hot irons or th
swelling dough,
Nover a word heard Tom of the sweeping
day, when slio went into every corner of tho
desolalo house; discovering reminders of tho
dear father, which brought sudden spasm
of pain, to bo borne alone. Juit a word did
ho hear of tho backachos and armaches in
soothing fretting baby to her atternoon nap;
nothing of the lonely time when she sat in
the silent, silent house, wearily patching
and darning; nothlug of the drudgery over
the hot stove, of the dishwashing and ol the
mopping.
She planned Iter work and hurried It
along lo keep the unpleasantncfs nut of
Tom's sight and bearing.
Upturning at night ho would find the
baby iu bed, having had her bread-aiuhinilk
supper.
The little round tRblo would be set, look
ing cheery and Inviting with clean llntu
clear glass nnd polished silver, while per
chnnce Mowers on the mantle brightened and
swcclenrd the room.
itid when the supper table was cloared
Ivah would sit by Tom to ilo the multiplying
and dividing, and adding and verifying
tho drudgery of the bookkeeping.
,U length the axloiisly expected day came
when Tom was to hear the judgment as to
his trial.
When he returned at night Ivah scrutin
ized his face, her heart lull at perceiving
that it was not very cheerful, She refrained
from asking question', leaving him to choose
his time and manner of communicating the
result,
'Harris Ilrolhers offer me the place at
forty dollars a mouth,' he said, after sup
per. 'Oh, Tom, how- glad wh ought to be!
how thankful I I've frit all tho time that
Old meant to lake care of if,' Ivuh said,
and then she broke down and cried.
llut If I can do the work of the place,'
said Tom, grumbling. 'I don't set- why I
shouldn't have the wages which belong to it.
l'o about decided t i tell Harris llrothers
that I will not w irk for half piy.'
'0!i, don't Tom, don't!' crid Ivah, taking
alarm. Think how much it is worth to
have secured the pkee. Tako what you can
get till you have giiued skill and have de
moiistrated your value. When you are pure
of your skill, and they are sure, you may
ask for a higher salary. Wo can manage
well with forty dollars. I find new naysol
economizing every day.'
On and on she went, till Tom was
persuaded to ilose willi Harris liiothers'
t IV r,
lie would not have been nble to deserve
this but fur his sister's walc'iful help.
1 veil alter ho had gained skill In the
wotk he still brought his hooks home fir
herald. Often she was left bendinj over
the figures while he went out to refresh
himself r.t sime plate of amusement or by
a call,
liefore the year was out Tom's salary had
been raised to $70 a month ; and a fiw
months later he auuounctd that he was to
have $1,000.
'Isn't it good, dear Turn?' Ivah said, cud
dling clo-o up to him. We can begin to lay
up something for baby's education.'
'I can't spare much money,' said Tom,
with his eyes downcast. There was silencn
for a moment, and then he went on with
some words that madj his sister's heart heal
in a dreadful way.
'Tlio fact is, I've been wailing for a raise
in my salary to to mako an importaut
change in my life.'
Ivah's heart stood still in terror.
Again Tom paused.
'What is It Tom? What change? You
are not going away?'
'No. I suppo-e I ought to have told you
before. I'm I'm engaged to l.o married.
She gasped 'Oh, Tom!' and then broke
into tears.
Tom was vexed at her emotion.
'I don't seo why you need tako on at this
rate,' he said, with petulance. 'I .should
think 'you'd rejoice at any happiness that
comes into my life of drudgery.'
'Yes, sobbed Ivah; 'but it was so unex
pected! Dear Tom, I am g'ad of anything
that will make you happier, Ot courro it
has been very dreary fur you since father
died, and you have had to work hard.'
She did not add, ns many another would
havo done, 'And I hao worked hard; and
your work, Tom, has taken you out into the
light and life and sunshine; initio has tied
mo to the lonely house. You have had
time and heart to mako lovo aud to win
love.'
She said naught of this, but asked the
name of tho woman who was lo take her
place.
When Tom gave it t-he tahl: 'lhat
Rounds like a French name.'
'Slio is of Kreuch;parenlagc,' Tom sub
mitted.
'When do you expect lo bo married?'
'Next Wednesday.'
'And this Saturday. 'I fear I can't get
things ready for you. Your room ought to
be rep.ipered.
No matter about my room,' said Tom,
with a nervous haste, for ho saw a chanca
in a natural connection what he dreaded to
ay: 'I think we had better go to Mrs.
Hill's for a few months at least, I want
Marie's honeymoon at least to be pleasant.
Iiaby's getting to be such a bother. It
would mako you much more woik, Iod,"
ho hastened to add, glad of so good an ex
CUSP
What would the homo be without Tom?'
cried Ivah's pour heart. Then, too, the
prudent little soul trembled at the extrava
gauce of Tom's plan.
'I don't see, Tom, how you can alt'ird to
tako rooms at Mrs. Hill's. If wo divide wo
double the expense; I don't see how we can
manage on a thousand dollar).'
Tom rose from his chair and Hung himself
into another.
'1 don't suppose wo shall stay there a
year, ho tnen said, 'ut course l can't kee
up two establishment'; that isn't to bo ex
pected of a man. Other young men marry
and set up for themselves. You can't ex
pect that I fan stay tied up to you always

thing lo earn a living. You can't expect to
go through llfo without work. Why can'

Ivah replied with low, pathetic voico
'You ought to know why, Tom. I havo been
doing housework since 1 was 15. 1 have no
preparation fur leaching.'
well, sua lonijin nts easy way, "you
have a good head for planning. You'll bave
to think it over and determine what you'll
elo.'
He went out an 3 left his elster altltn
with white face and wide eye.
It was not dismay that sho must go out
single-handed to the combat that kept her
silling there like a statue; it was that Tom
whs willing that sho should fight alone.
ilh a deserted feeling she went into
where baby was sleeping; sho dropped be
side tho bed; shekiwed baby's baud, thrown
out.
Then she put hor eyes against the coun-
terpone and mado n v.-iw never lo desert
babyl She would a soon thought.of prom
islng never to dcert her heart. She prom
ised never to desert Tom. Slio had a vnguo
fear that evil was advancing upon Tom. She
knelt thero till she persuaded herst If that
sho IiriI no right to rensuro Tom. All young
men fell In love, and all wanted to marry.
She could not expect Tom to bo a sacrlfico
lo her and baby.
'When she had thus decided, she sat up
and began to plan her future.
There seemed only one thing for Ivah to
do; to take some boarders,
liefore going to bed, sho went to tho Trib
une olllco with an advertisement for the
morning paper.
Hy tho timo lhat Tom had vacated his
room and gone to Mr. Hill's, nit elderly
man and wife, were ready to movo Into it.
Table boarders also came. The first day Ivah
cooked for seven boarders. She had a young
girl to look after baby, wash dishes, run on
errands, etc.
Ivah's rule was to have a few dishes, well
prepared, and having a home flavor. As
she had reckoned, this pleased. The seven
boaidcrs brought in others, llcfore tho
mouth was out there were more applicants
than her table would accommodate.
At the month's end, with a throbbing
heart, Ivah ctrcfiilly cat up her nccounls.
When this was done she put up tho little
book, caught baby to her knee, kissing and
hugging the child. The llttlo landlady had
came out ahead. Thrre was a balance ol
$1!1 in her favor.
Sim knew that her hoarders wete so well
pleased lhat she could venture a small
advance on her prices. Very small it was,
only -eventy-five cents a head on the nek,
but it told on the returns.
liefore five months had passed, Ivah de
cided to take a larger and better house,
in "re conveniently situated for busines peo
ple, and to put up her prices. The housp
was nearer Tom's quarter?, and before Ivah
as settled, Tom came around with Lis
books,
'It will lie so pleasant to have you near,'
he said.
Ivah discerned the sadness in his :ni!e.
she had remarked before that Tom was loos
ing thinner and more worn.
'Whenever jou are belated in your work,
you must ionic and let me help jou, Turn,'
she said, beginning to cist up a column of
figures.
When they had fiuishid tho work, sho in-
luiied about Marie.
she s at the theatre, sail Tom, with
a dash of bitUruess iu his voice and in his
face. '
Why didn't you go with her ?' Ivah
:isked.
I couldn't afford it,' said Tom ; 'be-
ides, I have to work. You know I keep
Mrs. Weber's books besides Harris Ilro's
books.' .
'I suppose you're laying by something,
but you mu-n't overwork. Couldn't Marie
help you some?'
'Marie 1' Tom cried, with a derisive
laugh.
Ivah was greatly pained that Tom could
use such a tone towaid his wife.
There is nothing Maiie can do except to
pend money. I am not laying up anything
;lie keeps me in debt every hour of my
life. Iam owing ninety-six dollars board
now.'
'Why,' Tom,' cried Ivah, shocked.
Why don't you go to a cheaper boarding
house?'
I can't get away from Mrs. Hill's till I
have settled arrears, unlets 1 leave my
trunks. Think of that humiliation!'
Oh, Tom, I would do nothing, I would
live on parched corn, beforo I would live in
debt.'
'Hut you could not help tho debt it you
were bound to such a person ns my wife.'
lhat night sho lay awake, planning for
Tom, remembering her vow to stand by
him to desert him never. He needed her
now.
Tho next day she called at Mis. Hill's,
and by becoming surety for tho payment of
Tom's arrears, sho had his belongings
moved lo her boarding house. As this was
now a stylish establishment, Mnrio made
no objection to the move, especially as some
of the ladies at Mrs. Hill's bad begun to
cut her.
Ivah believed with Tom that the secret of
Maiit-'s extravagance an I di-coiitont and
dissipation was tho want of useful employ
ment. Ivah set herself to meet this want.
The French women havo such a knack
at making things look their best, and vim
have such taste Marie, that it would be
real favor to me if you would see to the set
ting of the table,' Ivah said with her
prettiest manner, which was very pretty
indeed.
fs i Marie, her skill and self c-teem flat
tered, went into the dining room aud did her
best at spreading the table, and Ivah praised
tho result, liy somo similar finesse Marie
wss induced to take charge of the ladies'
pallors.
Then Ivah beguiled Marie, who was re
ally good nalurcd, to learn cake-baking,
Marie became positively infatuated willi the
work, and every morning, right after break
last, she would go to tho kilchen aud make
the cakes for the following day-
Time which belonged to her own affairs

To tell how Ivah's work for Marie was
drno would be to tell a long and wonderful
story of patient, persistent, watchful adroit
devotion, under many trying circumstances
in ilia uililst ot the training Ivan was
asked to become the wife of n man whom
she inueh esteemed, and toward whom her

she ould have a rest, cherished and cared

Hut she dared not let go of Marie and
Tom, and there might be such a thing as

The judgment ot thc.-o men as to whethei

Mr Malloek thinks it is worth living pro-
ided a man has faith in a great church ;
and Professor Mivart a Catholic himself
thinks life's highest values are in the eloing
of duty and in love. To do right, to sacri
fice one's self for lovo these aie better things
than pleasure. To lovo and to be loved
these are thiugs that pay. To bo conscious

A great ciiminal trial may bo likened (o a
great drama. Kach of tho opposing lawyers
strives to make a certain impression on Iho
twelve spectators in tho jury box, while tho
judgo presides to sec that all is done accord
ing to tho rules of (he lw. Ouo such triat
took place some twenty years ago in Indiana.
The lawyer for tho prisoner was Joseph O,
Marshall, a great orator. The successful way
in which he put tho evidence) for the defend,
and tho power ol a single sentence, are both
exhibited in iho following narrative of tho
trial:
Citrrio was an eccentric old man, who
coupled the profession of school master with
that of "'herb doctor." Ono night Currio'3
wife being laken violently ill, ho gave her
what ho took lo be caloniol, but which prov
ed to bo arsenic. In tho morning slit, was a
p eorpe.
Alarmed at onco what ho had dono,tho old
mm looked at his little cabin and fled from
the neighborhood. A week l iter tho suioJl
tf iho decaying body altractcd tlie attention
of passers, aud Currio was indicted lor mur
der. Marshall believing him innocent of any
wrong Intent, volunteered to defend hitu.
The only witnoss railed for the defence was
Dr. Uoruelt, a well known physician of Mad
ison. Mr. Marsha'l, without preliminary
questions, handed l.im two it tic pap'rs, care
fully folded, and asked him to inform tho
jury of their euntenls. The physician took
tlie papers, adjusted his spectacles, he care
fully examined the contents. Not satisfied
willi this, ho took up a little of each sub
stance, sil'iod ihcui between his thumb and
forefinger, Finelt them, aud as a final test,
lasted the !cat bit of each.
'I lliink, sir, this is arsenic, and that calo
mel'' 'That is sufficient doctor,' said M. Mar
shall. The prosecution has nothing to
ask.
'ibis dosed the evidence, and Mr. Marshall
bowing to the emit, and turning to tlie jury,
thus addri'.s-1'il them :
'Your honor and gentlemen of tho jury,
you have noticed the absence of proof show
ing any ciiminal in'cnt. Now, if, in tho
broad light of day, aud aided by the delicate
