"0, father!" exclaimed • both mother and child. "Well, then, it is not every woman that would give up the thoughts of being the wife of a rich agent tor a company, move out of a nice new ,hotise, and stitch, and stitch from morning to night to support' her family.— Who has a right to be cheerful, if I have not? I can tell you there's times when the factory makes my thoughts go straight up." Our friend, Hathaway's voice was rather 4ked• he cleared it, and added, "but what t were you listening to : Ruthy, dear?" "Why, father, I was listening fur the rail read whistle; we always hear it, you know, when . the wind is west." 'Why, 1, heard - it, Ruth, when y l ou were setting up the dishes."

"Don't be too sure, my child;'' "I can't help, being sure, Mother., Charlie never fails to write when he says he will,-and this letter is to tell us whether he can come home to Thanksgiving, and its' only twelve days to that, and I shall be just sixteen that day." "Yes, yes, ,Ruthy,'' said the father, "come what may come, thanksgiving d&y will always be thanksgiving to us." ,' "Oh, there's Colonel Miles!" exclaimed Ruth, and she rushed to the door, not, howev er, without giving her father a brush of a kiss as Fhe passed. "Colonel Miles!" she shouted, t‘cau't you please to stop at the post-office, and bring our 'letter from Charlie?' The Colonel vas not going to the post-ollke, but his turning off place was near it, and it was but the work of two minutes for Ruth to beg a scat in his lit- tle wagon, to get he mother's leave to go herself to the post-office, to take the Chance of the - two mike' .caulk home if she did, not get a cast, and above all to obtain leave to open the letter herself, as soon as received, to 'whith- ever member of,the family it might be ad- dressed Three Innirg. whorl A nthony. a 'commit man, livingat r Ir.

"lie means'to be paid, my child," said an 7iderly gentleman, who tas struck , with the simplicity of ilutle.s manner, and him self gave the fare to tho vociferating driver. Ruth now comprehended her mistake, and re paying the sixpence, she said with her char acteristic good sense, '1 am a Stranger in New York, sir, or I should liave kmiwn better. He invited me to ridewith him, and the peo ple where I live often give rides to ditran4ers."
