"Fair as a lily, graceful a a gazelle !
'NVho Is she ? I would give a thousand
dollars If I miKht but paint that face !"
The words were spoken hurriedly, and
somewhat too loudly for the time and
place.
Many bystanders heard them, and
looked at the speaker, the lady, then at
each other, aud smiled.
Hut the lady herselt a young, slight
girl, with large blue eyes, pale, golden hair,
oud a face like the picture of a saint, so
fair and pure it seemed held on her way,
leaning on her escort's arm, without a
change of expression or even a startled
sidelong glance, to show that the artist's
impetuous wish had reached her ear.
Calmly she sat in her box at the concert
that eveumtr, with her blue eyes fixed up
on the stage. Many an opera glass was
turned upon her from below, and in a se
cluded corner of the stalls sat Gcrvase
I.ivinzstone, the artist, gazing at her,
with li is heart and soul in his large, dark,
passionate eyes.
" Who can she be :-"' he whispered to an
intimate friend.
" I do not know. The face is a new one,"
was the low reply.
" A new one '. It looks as if it was but
Just created ns if those eyes hnd never
looked upon a iinful world :" raved the
artist. " Years nso, when I was a school
boy in the conntry, I knew a child with a
facealinost as pure and sweet, the died,
as earthly angels always do. Yet, had
she lived, she would have been like that
g;L I'oo'r little May !" ...
Leaning his head upon his hand, the
artist lost himself in a dream of his boy
hod'3 love. When he looked up again
the concert was drawing to a close, and
the box was empty the divinity had
gone !
lTr.rryi:'r frm the house, he Inquired
riiitniid left among the attendants at
the door; and f,nally, by a gift of money,
r-o -refreshed the memory of one that he
said that he had seen the young lady
drive ofT in a private carriage before the
concert was over, with "a gentleman as
nii'ht be her father, sir, and they went to
the Everett House."
To the Evorett House followed the en
amored artist, only to be disappointed.
The servant whom he feed liberally as
sured him that no such young lady was
stopping there. Some wild Impulse, for
which he could scarcely account, led the
artist to examine the hotol register. Ho
looked for the nunie of " May Cameron "
it v.-ns the name of his earliest love and
it was not there.
Meanwhile the fair object of his search
was s;eedJug from the city as fast as the
midnight train could carry her toward
Boston. Although the hour was so late,
she wi wakeful, and clasped her hands
over her eyes as she rested her her.d on
the pillow, in a vain attempt to shutoct
from mind and memory the picture of a
haunt in g face.
"Kudid not recognize me," she thought,,
with a sigh. "And yet I knew him iii
spite of , the. changs in spite of the a 1 Jo li
height, the alterul fj.ee, the dark mous
tache I fciifw him at the moment when
hb eyes met mine, as we entered at the)
dour."'
And then she blushed nt the memory
of the words he had uttered.
" I'ftiillue,' said she, softly.
The second occupant of the "section"
stirred ou her couch, and, answered,
drowsily:
"What is it, May V
" Are you asleep "
" Ybat a question ? No, not now," re
plied Pauline, stiiHug a groan. "What
troubles you, my Mayof Mays ? You gen
erally drop asleep the instant your pretty
head touches the pillow."
" But not to-nitrht, I'anline. I cannot
sleep. I have been thinking of all you told
me about"
"About Gervase Livingstone? asked
ranlino, finishing the sentence.
.7 Hush! Speak lower, Pauline. There
are so many people near. Yes, I am
troubled deeply trouVded by what you
say of him."
"It is true, May."
" Who told you, Paulino "
"My brother, in the first instance. He
knows him well is often at his rooms
and regrets his intemperance more than
any of the rest of his friends, I think."
" Does your brother think does he con
sider him entirely past reform ?" asked
May, with a trembling voice.
Hearing It, and the suppressed sob that
followed the question, Pauline Danforth,
who was a kind hearted little city belle,
came out of her nest and sat down bosido
her friend.
"Dear May, my brother James has
often said that if 1-ivingstono had a reason
a motivo-for reforming, his reform
would lie a settled thii.fc."
- "What motive "
"I explain myself bunglingly, I fear.
James meant, my dear May, that if Liv
ingstone could be induced to fall lu lore,
the lady might work his reformation.
ea.Mly, if she chose to do so."
"lie loves no one, then, at present ?"
Xo one, May. .Tames says that he be
lieves him to be faithful to the memory
a child who died years ago. It is -an odd
thing to say of a mau lik.6 hfm, but James
dec!!1 res that Livingstone really loved that
child, and that he loves her nw."
"If that is true'" said May Warburton,
drying her eyes, "he may yet be saved."
' What do you mean, dear "
"I mean that I am that child, Pauline.
"Rnt the child died," replied Pauline,
with an aMtonished look.
"No. My cousin, Mary Cameron, died,
and he must have seen the notice of her
death, or heard of it, and supposed it to
be mine. Just before her illness my good
Uncle Warburton came to my country
home, and finding me a poor and friend
less oiphau, adopted me as his own child.
and gave me nis name.-
"And ,vnh it in that little country town
that you knew Gervase Livingstone as a
boy '' inquired Pauline.
" Yes. He had been sent to the house
of some old family servant for his health.
And he remained there for two years.while
his parents were in Europe. Oh ! Paul
ine, he was the noblest, kindest, most
generous-hearted boy ! If you will only
help me now to save him !"
"I !" exclaimed Pauline.
"You," replied May, caressing and
klssinir her. " Oh. don't refuse me. dear.
j Papa is so stern and unforgiving about
euch things. He would think Gervaae
; I mean Mr. Livingstone not worth aav-
ing, because of this one fault. It is vain
i to hope for help from him. But if you
j will only assist me, dear, good Pauline, I
have such a plan 1"
"Indeed f said Pauline, laughing. ' So
I am to be bribed with a kiss. Well, let
me hear your plan for the benefit of Ger
vase I mean Mr. Livingstone and we
will see what can be done."
" I shall need your brother's aid, too,
but that you must secure. And oh ! both
of you must promise to keep my secret
from every one," said May.
Then leaning her cheek against Paul
ine's, she whispered, in the silence of the
midnight, her innocent plot for the re
demption of a human souJL
Pauline Danforth's stay in Boston was
but a short one, and on her return to New
York it was noticed by her escort that she
carried In her own hands, and for the
whole distance, a small ebony box, mount
ed in silver, and fastened with a ailrer
lock and key. "A jewel box," as he
supposed.
On the evening of her arrival at the
home in Fifth Avenue, after the family
greetings were over, Pauline sought a
private interview with her brother
James, and, after a long explanation, left
the ebony box in his care.
" May is a trump, Pauline, and you are
another," was the young man's somewhat
undignified exclamation, as he brushed
his cambric handkerchief across his eyes.
" And Livingstone is well worth saving,
and the little box ghall be in his possession
to-morrow evening before he sleeps."
"Secretly, James, remember," said
Pauline. " He must not know from whom
the gift comes, till he has shown himself
worthy of it."
" Trust me for that," replied her broth
er. " If thore were more women on earth
like you and May, women ready to use
their influence over men in this fashion,
we should lie a great deal better than we
are, my dar."
So James carried off his prize to his own
room.
The next evening a party of giy friends
met, as they were often in the habit of
meeting, at the artist's rooms. Wdne
flowed freely, and the pictures on the
wall could scarcely be seen for the cloud
of smoke that ruse from a dozen cigars.
When the revel was at its height James
Danforth rose from his chair and held out
his hand to the host:
"Good-by, Livingstone."
" What ! are you going ! So soon t" said
the artist, sun Jd.
"Yes. Goi;.j,- for good and all, my
boy."
" What do you mean t"
"I mean," said Danforth, seriously,
"that there is a time for all things, and
the time for reflection has now come to
me. We je all on the downward track,
boys you know It as well as I. An angel
has warned me, and I am going to stop
now while I can. Follow my example if
you have any regard for yourselves, or
for the mothers, sisters and wives at
home who love you. Good-by, boys.
Good-by, Gervase. I shall jojn you here
no more."
He loft the room. They all sat gazing
nt each other in silence. His words had
struckvUome to-every heart, as he had in
tended them to do. One after another of
the now quiet party stole away with some
excuse. In half an hour after James
Danforth had closed the door behind him
the artist sat alone by his fireside, leaning
his head upon his hand, and gazing sadly
into the burning coals.
'" The wives the mothers the sisters at
homcS-who love you," he muttered to
himself. "They did well to obey the calL
I would have obeyed it, in my turn, but
who lives now to care for me My
mother and little May are both in their
graves ; sister I have none wife I shall
never have I Ah, what does it matter t
A short life and a merry one for me. and
no one will shed a tear over its ending.
I'll have another glass of wine. What's
this f"
In reaching np to the mantel-shelf for
the glass he had left there, his hand
struck against the little ebony chest,
which stood In the place of hoaor, directly
under a little water-color sketch made
from memory of the long lost child,
" May."
The silver key was in the silver look.
The artist tnrned it, wondering how the
beautiful toy came there without his
.knowledge. His surprise increased when
the lid flew back, displaying a beautiful
drinking cup of gold, elaborately chased,
and enriched with rubles beneath the
curving brim.
"What a beautiful thing!" exclaimed
the artist, lifting the cup from its bed of
. rose-oolored velvet. "Who can have sent
such a gift ? Did those fellows bring it
Becretly with them to-night, I wonder t
Anyway, it Is a perfect gem, and I'll All
it to the brim with champagne, and see if
I can drive these melancholy thoughts
' away."
' Approaching the table, he lifted the
flask. Something flashed at that momemt
at the bottom of the cup. Turning it to
, ward the light he saw a picture, framed
in gems, and bending nearer, the large
blue eyes of the lovely stranger at the
concert looked np at him from the depths
of the goblet with an earnest, appealing
gaze. .
- He nearly dropped the cup In hto anr
' prise. Snatching the ebony case from the
chimney-piece, he searched it eagerly for
' some clew to the mysterious gift. " '
Half-hidden in the velvet lining,- he
found a morsel of paper, and drawing it
forth, and holding it to the light, he read i
. Xot dead, but hoping aiid praying; for yon
ever. Mat."
" May ! May alive ! Alive and remem
bering me!" he exclaimed. And then, as
the full significance of the gift flashed
' across hla mind, the crimson flushed to
his temples, and sinking on his knees, he
laid his head down beside the magic gob
let, and burst into a passion of tears. ,
- Those who cajled at the rooms of the
artist during the next week found them
closely shut. At last it was rumored
about that he had suddenly sailed for
' England, and a few days more proved the
minor to be true.
A year passed by, and at the annual ex
hibition of the Academy painters a pic
ture made its appearance which took the
world of fashion completely by storm.
Every paper noticed it: eveiy person
poke of it; and so numerous and so ap
proving were the comments that pretty
I'anline Danforth, who, in general, c.ired
nothiug whatever about pictures of av.y
kind, asked her brother James to tae ! c.
to the gallery to see this wonder ou a cer
tain day.
James, like a kind brother, consented,
but with an odd twimkle iu his eye,
which Paulina could not quite under
stand. When that evening's train from
Boston brought Mr. Warburton and hit
adopted daughter, May, for a visit of
some weeks, James eyes seemed to
twinkle more brightly than ever; and, of
his own accord, he Invited Miss May to
Join their party on the following day.
May accepted the invitation with a sup
pressed sigh. Hearing which, James
smiled so broadly that Pauline hunted
him speedily into a corner, and demanded a
share of his secret, whatever it might be.
Hut Jai!:es proved obdurate. She would
know all. he said, at the gallery, where
the name of the successful artist was to be
proclaimed on the following day.
Pauline rejected a moment.
"Oh !" she exclaimed ; and her eyes be
gan to dauco in their turn.
Hut uot one word said the llttlotraitress
to her friend May. Only she took care
tliat their visit to the gallery should bo
paid nt a very early hour, before the fash
ionable wcrld had scarcely riseu from
their beds.
Early as It was, however, one gentleman
stood beloro the famous picture, gazing
intently at the beautiful golden-haired
guardian angel, who, with white waving
wings, bent forward over the shoulder of
a dark-browed man, walking heedlessly
on a (lower-strewn descent, toward a fear
ful gulf, and drew from his unwilling
hand a gulden cup overflowing with wine.
Pauline gave one swift glance at the
angel in the picture and at the solitary
gazer. Then she touched her brother's
arm, and while May went unsuspectingly
forward, the two vanished into an inuer
room, where a portrait gallery had been
recently improvised.
Hearing the light step behind film the
artist turned away, with a crimsoning
brow, from the contemplation of his own
picture.
But, with his first glance at the face of
the newcomer, he paused.
May, unheeding him in her haste to see
the pictnre, lifted her eyes to the canvas.
She stood rooted to the spot in hex amaze
ment, her heart throbbing, her color ris
ing, and at last, her blue eyes filling with
tears.
" Oh, Panline!" she exclaimed, in an
agitated tone. "It must be his picture I
No one else could have painted it I He is
saved 1"
" Yes, thanks to you sweet angel, un
der God, he is saved !" replied a deep
voice.
She turned, and met the dark eyes of
the artist gazing at her in worship.
"May my little May will you take
the life you rescued ?" he asked.
With a noblo courage she laid her hand
in his. And now no home U happier than
that of the faraons painter, where hia
sweet " Guardian Augel " smiles upon his
walls, and dwells eushrined within his
jovlng heart.
The Tlnnhroora Industry.
The growing of mushrooms, an industry
at yet little developed in this country, as
sumes vast proportions in the neighbor
hood of the French metropolis. Whether
the Parisian epicures have an especial
weakness for this most delicious of veget
ables, whether their gardeners are more
enterprising and skilful than those of our
cities, or whether the immense abandoned
stone quarries iu the vicinity of Paris offer
unusually favorable conditions for mush
room growing, does not appear. The fact
however, is uot to be disputed, that the
environs of this great city produce more
mushrooms than those of any other city
of which we have knowledge. Her sub
terranean caverns cannot solve the whole
mystery, for large quantities are produced
above ground, and in private gardens
thrifty beds of this delicacy mi often be
seen growing ia tubs, boxes, or even upon
simple wide boards lying upon the
ground.
When we are, told that tha average
daily production of the Paris mushroom
growers amounts to 25 tons, we may be
gin to realize something of the importance
of the business. Of course this vast
amount is not all consumed by the Pari
sians. On the contrary, a large proportion
is preserved in various ways, for shipment
r.o other cities and countries, and In many
of the far inland towns of our own coun
try we may purchase French mushrooms
at the better class of grocery stores at
fancy prices.
Sailing for Wealth.
An expedition will soon sail from Phila
delphia for Vlao, Spain, In search of the
Spanish treasure galleons sunk in the bay
in 1709. An engineer who visited the spot
last summer declares that he has positive
ly located eleven of the sunken treasure
galleons, and, in a diver's suit, went down
upon the decks of several of them, which
werelytng at the depths of thirty or forty
feet below the surface. Vfath a charge of
dynamite he blew ott the deck of one of
them and laid bare the general oar go,
wTdch consisted of huge logs of mahog
any and logwood In perfect preservation.
He also picked up coins from the deck,
and Iron balls, mementoes of tba sea
fight 168 years ago.
Taking; t'p Forect Treea.
To take np a young forest, says a corres
pondent of the N. Y, Tribuue, first wind
a wet sack around the stem, close to the
ground, so tightly that it cannot slip ; then
take a timber hitch with a small cable
chain, cut off a few roots cm the side op
posite the steady team, and you will get
nearly every root whole, and plenty of
soil. I took up 100 Kuk Maples iu this
way last spring, after I had learned to
wind the sack properly, without damage
to the trees. In this way two men with'a
team will take up more trees in an hour
than they could without a team In half a
day. - '''

LAMP AND TOILET MATS.
Take twelve sheets of fine tissue paper,
double each in the mlildla
two thus folded together, and fold them '
in uie miaaie lengtnwise then fold over and
over till you have a strip about an inch
wide. When you have one strip rightly
folded proceed with the other ten, folding
two together, till you have six long
strips. Weave these together In checker
board Btyle so that all the ends wlil be of
the same length. When all are even,
with a needle aud thread, tack each cor
ner and center piece securely together.
This makes a center amply large for an
ordinary sized mat. When the tacking is
complete with sharp scissors cut the
doubled sides, then cut in fine fringes as
near to the center as possible. The finer
the fringe is cut the prettier it will look
when shaken out. Having cut all the
ends give the fringe a turn through a
crimper, then shake it all lose, rubbing it
between the hands to increase the curly
appearauoe. If a rainbow mat is de
sired the greatest number of colore to be
obtained oan be used.
CHAJB COVKRfk
These covers are made of coarse gray
linen which is lined off into 'diamonds
with a star in the middle of each diamond.
The goods are generally sold for kitchen
tablecloths. Divide three stars into groups
of four, six, or eight, and work each star
over with worsted of different color, tak
ing care that the colors harmonize with
each other. When all the stars are em
broidered, sew narrow black velvet rib
bon over the lines which form the dia
monds. pnoTOGRAPH ;ases.
A pretty case for cabinet photographs,
preferred by many to an album, is made
of plush in any desired color. Nine Inches
by twenty-six are about the right dimen
sions. That is, have an oblong piece as
wide as the cabinet is talk and about
three Inches more than three times the
width of the picture. Line with satin or
silk, wadded a lltUe, with a little Batch et
powder on the wadding, edge with a silk
cord with ends to tie around the ease,
after it has been folded twice across, so as
to make a receptacle shaped something
like an envelope.
LAMP 8I1ADR
A shade for a roand lamp globe is made
of ribbon three or four inches wide. A
piece Is needed just long enough to fit
easily around the globs after it is
joined. The upper edge of the ribbon Is
gathered slightly to make it conform in
shape to the globe. The lower edge is
finished off with a border of antique lace.
WHISK BROOM HOLKBK.
Take a straw cuff and gild or bronze it;
ortiament it with a few peacock feathers,
held In place with a satin rlblxn bow.
Add a ribbon to hang it up by.
FIAOU MATS.
Take heavy pieces of woolen cloth and
cnt tongue shape, three inches long and
two inches wide it the broad end. Work
in coarse button-hole stitch all around
with shaded Oermantown yam, and then
put in a star of some contrasting color in
the center ; now take a pieoe of carpet for
the center, and sew three rows of pieces
around.
FmH BCREKKSk
Cut a foundation the shape required of
Btlff Mack net Sew peacock fea'hera,
firmly on this net, beginning at the edge,
placing the feathers a Uttie beyond it, and
finishing off in the center. Let the best
feathers be placed at the edge, for there
they show the most, and place the small
ones in the center. Do not let the quails
of the feathers be too long, or it will have
a bunch effect; put tbe feathers as closely
together as possible, and take care that
the thread does not entangle in the small
lif tit feathers and make them look ragged.
The best way is to hold the thread rather
tightly round the little finger of the right
hand until it Is nearby all drawn through.
When the feathers are strongly sewn on,
cover the place where they join with a
bird's head and neck, or a tcift of pea
cock's breast feathers.
Rood Coffee.
Mrs. Corson, in a lecture, says : It Is one
of the simplest things in the world to
make a good cup of coffee, and this can
easily be accomplished by applying a lit
tle common sense. If yon put boiling
water on coffee, and do not let it boil, you
have all the good qualities preserved.
One reason dyspeptics can not drink cof
fee is because it is boiled. The style of
coffee Is just a matter of fancy. I have
made as good coffee from an old tomato
can as I have ever supped from a cup fill
ed from the finest French coffee urn. Ws
should take lessons in this matter from
the Turks and Arabians, who grind their
coffee to a fine powder. When the coffee
is ground as fine aa possible put it ta a
little bag of unbleached muslin, which
should be tied tightly enough to prevent
the escape of the grounds. If yon use a
cup of unground coffee yon can make
ever a quart of very strong, black coffee,
In. making coffee many people sacrifice
flavor . for strength. Bitterness comes
from boiling. ' When boiling water is
placed on the bag of ground coffee It
should stand at least three minutes be
fore serving. Remember, the longer it
stands the stronger it becomes.
Linen That lias Turned Yellow.
When linen has turned yellow cut up a
pound of fine white soap Into a gallon of
milk and hang it over a Are In a wash
kettle. When the soap has completely
melted put in the linen and boll it half
an hour, then take it out. Have ready a
lather of soap and water, wash the linen
in it, and then rinse It through two cold
waters, with a very little blue In the last
. Wben linen Is scorched use the following
remedy: Add a quart of vinegar, the
juice of half a dozen large onions, about
an ounce of soap rasped down, a fourth of
a pound of fuller's earth, an ounce of
lime, and one ounce of pearl-ash. Boll
the whole until it la pretty thick, and
spread some of It upon the scorched part.
Allow H to remain until dry, then scrape
It off and wash. Two or three applica
tions will restore the linen, unless bo
much scorched that the fiber is destroyed.
A little pipe elay dissolved In the water
used for washing linen will elean it thor
oughly, with half the amount of soap and
a great diminution of labor. The article
will be greatly improved in color, and the
texture will be'beneflted.

THE MAX OF NO ACCOUNT.
- " Wake np here ! Wake np, I tell yon !"
aid a voice in the street.
D. Ylckerswas in hisuffice, whrrehehad
been sitting, reading an old German book.
Tie threw the book on a table, opened the
window and looked out.
Tbe cathedral clock (.truck two. Th
gaslight flared in the keeu wiud. The
street was still, save where now and then
a belated edestrian hurried along, and
from an adjacent square some votaries of
Bacchus were vociferating their intention
of not going home till morning.
Till day-lipM doth arienr.
A man was lyiim asleep ou the office
Step. A big, burly tolieeman had him by
the shoulder, shaking him. "Get up, I
eayl Get up l"
The sleeper rose from bis recumbent
position, yawning, and said:
" Certainly, my dear sir. Anything to
oblige. But you should not lie so vehement
In your manner. You really should not.
You would find it to your advantage to
cutivate repose."
" Don't be a-givin' me any o' your lip'"
said the moral policeman, " but come along
to the station-house."
" But really, now, you are too attentive.
Policeman. I object to going to prison. I
am neither drunk nor disorderly, and I
have no felonious intents upon my neigh
bor's goods. I thank you for your interest
In me, but a coolness on your part, a
studied avoidance of my vicinity, would
please ins well. A u rcvoir, Mr. Police
man." And so saying, th mnn lay down on the
Steps. The exasperated officer caught him
by the coat-collar and jerked him to a sit
ting posnre.
'Tf you don't come along now, you'll
wish yon had." he said, at tbe same time
giving him another jerk that sent him on
his feet. The man looked Uito the face of
the other aud replied:
" No, it would lie impossible for me, un
der any clrcuuistam es, to wish to accom
pany you. You -eced the bounds of
FTobabUlty when you say that, my good
ellow. But sinre yon are so importunate,
I will go, always under protest, though,
always under protest."
So aaying he descended the steps. The
loctor had been an interested spectator ,f
this scene, aud now, acting from impnlse,
called out:
"Wait a minute, officer," ami shutting
the window went out into the hall aud
opened the street door.
" Iet the fellow alone, officer," nald he
to the policeman, " I will pee that he does
tioharm."
"But he can't go on a-lavin round
asleep on door steps." replied the majesty
of tbe law.
" I admit my conduct was otien to ad
verse criticism," the stranger said, waving
his baud. " The customs of society do not
warrant a man in going to lxd with his
boots, especially when his conch of dreams
Is naught but the cold, cold stones ot a
door step. But I will make a handsome
apology if necessary," he continued, bow
ing to the policetna n.
After a little more parleying with the
offended iwilii-eman. tho Doctor induced
htm to depart without the offending
sleeper. St ill acting from impulse, ho in
vited the Granger t,i enter the office. The
only explanation of hia conduct was that
he wished to hear him talk. Possibly the
fact of the German book having lieeu a
Cardiological work may have hud some
earing on Dr. VicketV anomalous con
duct. Beside, it was iu t lie night, and no
one would know it. Deeds under such cir
cumstances are never so heinous as when
rerfortnod in the broad, uncompromising
L,ht of day.
Once seated by the fire, the Doctor saw
that his new acquaintance was a man
Boiuethinn over thirty years, who would
have been handsome under happier cir
cumstances But neglect and dissipation
had made sad havoc with iiia lace, i be
Doctor placed a lunch on a small table,
and courteously invited him to eat. The
Other diew his chair up to the table, and
then said, with an affected air of concern :
You must give me a.ssurace, Doctor,
that food partaken of at this late hour
will not be detrimental to my general
health. I never play tricks with my di
gestion." With assumed solemnity the Doctor as
sured him that he miht eat with im
pnnity. The other professed himself
Batisflnd and went to eating. He
was evidently very hungry and equally
reluctant to let it be too apparent, so that
the Doctor made an excuse and withdrew.
When he returned the plate was empty,
and the stranger was seated in front of
the tiro.
He looked so thin, so pinched with
buneer, so blue with cold, so utterly for
saken and disreputable, t hat for the first
time Dr. Yickers felt a compassion for
him. He drew an armchair to the other
side of the fire, opposite him.
" I don't imagine life wears a roseate
hue for vou, eh ? " said he. interrogatively.
"Well," said the other, "I Intra not
much of which to complain at present. I
am warm and have eaten. It is not always
so with me. A stomach is such an incon
venient thing. I often reflect on the fwlly
of my having one." Here tbe unknown
Struck an attitude aud continued.
" You know what the poet says :
Yon may live wltlmnt hooks
What ia knowledge, but grieving t
Yon may live without hoe
What la hope but deceiving T
You may live without love
What is pajtelon but plnlne:?
But where in the man that can live without
dininK ? "
" You are acquainted with the poets,
are yoa 1 " said Dr. Vickers.
"I have, sir, quite a knowledge of polite
literature. Iu fact, I have done a little
writing myself. It never came to anything.
Nothing ever does that I undertake. I was
never thoroughly trained in anything. I
am the mau of no account," he said, exact
ly aa though he was introducing some
body. "What has been the matte rf ' asked
the other. -
"Wrong training, replied the man of
no account. "If I had len apprenticed
In early life to a shoemaker, and learned
somewhat, but it is fatiguing to the
nerves. "
" But what do vou intend doing in the
future? " asked the doctor,
" Dn" repeated the other. "Just asVttle
as possible till theend of I he chapter. What
doesa watch dowhenithas nomain-spring?
I have no main-spring." He smoked a
little while and looked moodily into the
fire.
The Cathedral clock struck three. Then
the other docks in the towers took It up
and told the henr.
"One two three," repeated the man.
