Tvh.it is t;rnerally known as a tear, are so
singular as to te almost beyond belief." .
IttraitheoUl typographer who spoke.
He wan ittinK with a group of friends
and was sipping from a cup of hot bouil
lon. - - -
"Von knowlhafcn't drank anythlnR
for yettr except temperance drinks, and I
am thoroiiKi-.Iy cured of the desire for
lit nor which was for so many years the
liane of my existence). Howl ever man
aged to escape from Nsing killed on some
of my spree is a inystrry to me. But of
all the strange experience 1 ever had,
none, I think, equal one I had in New
York when the Grand Duke Alexia vcas
here, in 1ST1." - - -
11-3 wm it Rood story-teller, was thi oil
typographer, and the psrty sitting about
hiiii knew it, and therefore presned hitu
to a recital of what tLey kaew must be a
strange at ory.
The di.Hi iple of Franklin didn't seem to
be in a hurry to tell bis yarn, and he
stroked Lis long gray bard and rutuiu
ated. 1'iually, after continued urin.ha
Mid:
"I'd tell it, only It's so like a romanr
that I'm afraid yon wouldn't believe it."
Then, thoughtfully, "Rut, by Heavens,
It's true, every word of it. though now,
nearly fifteen year since it happened, it
seem to me like fiction rather than fact."
IIea!p;e,l his bouillon in silence, seemed
lj-t i ' tuotixht for an instant, and then
rai.- nx himself and leaning back in his
cotir, anid:
Well, hoys, here goes; I'll spin you the
yarn.
"I wa on a night case then, and nsed
to live at the old Merchant' Hotel on
Cortlsndt Mreet. I went off duty at 4
o'clock in tin morning, aud from that on
lined tosodowntottehoteland play poker
with kindred spirits until 9 or 10 o'clock
In the mornitiif. - -
"1 did this on the morning of Novem
ber 20, 1871. This was Monday. The
Gtand Duke Alexis had arrived in the
harbor on Sunday, and he was to have
been received on Monday. So we played
poker longer than usual in order to be up
in the morning toseetheprocasnion. lint
there wasn't any proceion to see. for it
rained in torrents, and was :u Uiaagreo
nhle a day as one could imagine.
"I'd been drinkinjr cotiKidcrably -while
I was playing, and linally went to bed
much the worse for liquor. I coulJu't
get any test, though I slept after a fash
ion. "When I Rot up In the evening I felt
very 'tocky.' 'f was cold, dismal, and the
weather was enough to Rive a m.in the
blue without the help of the liquor I
fc:d in me.
"I wils re:k!s, and dcci led n"t to go
to woi k. 1 had a t e:i? ylollar lull au.i a
twcr.t y-f.ve cent pi ce ia my ikrt.
"1 put on ahe.vy overcoat mid went
n;i l orner ot Cort laudt mreet aud
Ilrcinhvay a:it started up town. 1 paid
l.J ecu t In r sTase fare and had 15 cents
left, besides the t we::ty-dol!ar bill, for
which I had special ue. That was just
th price of a. cockt:iiI. I wanted that
cocktail when I got t;p to n nd street. So
I Kut out Jiud ot it. That warmed na
up a I.ttle and I ntartt-d to walk up town.
"Mike M.irray was running n am
blif.ic saloon on F.ihtU street then. I
drift ct! "Ver there with niy t weuty-tiollar
Kill, at:l there'a where l:iy eipcrieuce l-K.-tn.
"Ir wasn't Lard toet iuto a jrarn
b':n hou-e then ns it is now, and I had
no tri.uMe in reaching th faro table.
y.y head wa far (mm level, but in a
spirit of recklennaess I threw down in y
twenty-dollar bill and called for a stack
f! dinlur chip. I put m. a:id I iljaot
the drink of whiskey I called for.
"I drank frequently and played with
varying luck. Whiskey an I seltzer wa.
my drink, which wa served at the table
w here I at. Finally I ordered a bumper,
drank it, and that is-the laU 1 remem
ber. "
Ntthins extraordinary in that, I
shoal I ay," remarked one of the liten
itv "Ir was simply aa or.i.uary ca.-e of
i!ii;ni.''
Hold on a b'.t, and see," ri-snmed the
old ijtuinp'ier. "It will heuovel h-.-fora
I i-et t liro::;4h." He p u.Ted vigorously at
hi ei-ar f. r a moment and then resiitnetl.
"'Tin next tuuii: I knew wxs when I
Wi.',.n tin .fid fount! myself in u siran4
room. I' wa a little nwiti, ii. fur-
nit tire of such a cliaractcr a.-i to indicate
tlu. t I W4 in a hot, !.
'"There wa a bell pull hancin? on the
wall I.e.ir the bed that proved that, ily
vest wa r.n a chair near llin bed. I
reacUed for it, for I was terri' ly thirsty,
and I wanted to see if there was any
nnmey them to buy . drink with. You
ran le-t I w.i happy when I found fl.To.
So I puili-d t he bell.
"A Im-11 Imy responded and I be?n cate
chisinjj him, for I wanted, atxtve all
things, to find out if my room .s paid
for, ai.d how much money I hud to the
ii d.
"What can I do for yon, sir' asked
the kid who came up in auiwer to my
i intr. -
TuIl me where lam.
'"You're in the Grand Central Hotel.
"'G.M!. What time is it'
" 'ilali-pa.st 10 o'clock, hir.'
" 'All rinht. Hriiii; me a whiskey cock
tail.' He started tcr it. 'Hold on:' I
shouted; 'don't be in such a deuce of a
burrj; make it two.
"He made it two, and I never saw two
cocktail that tasted so pood in my life.
Yt'ell, I paid the kid, aud K;,ve him 10
cents for himself. That used up a half
dollar. That Uft me a dollar and a quar
ter. "I got np, dressed, and went down
stair to tacklo the clerk and see if Fd
paid my bill. There was an awful crowd
in tlie crridors, but what brought them
there I couldn't imagine. Everything
that had happened in the past was a
blank. Then; seemed but one thing to 1)0)
done, that was to take a drink. I took it.
I then had 10 cents la-sides my dollar.
"Then I ventutand braced the clerk
and fo irdout my bill was paid. That
cheered me up. So I went nnd look an
i ti.er':ink. But the crowd in thohotel
b. iiieied me, nnd I couldn't r.take out
what it meant, ri-ially 1 mil. ti red up
Cv.uriCf" to ask what was ioino::.
"Why, they're receiving the Grand
Duke Alexis, answered tLe countryman
1 had tackled,
"Hiwm astonished at ray Inorrinee,
and I didn't blame l-.ini much, for I then
rememlwred that the Grand Duke's fleet
had arrived and that bewrtsdnein the
city when I started on my little excur
sion, but that the weather Lad prevents
the reccptiou.
"I weut out on the sidewalfc after I had
k.i I ii-i.j.htr drink to take in the p.irsue.
"D:d you ever notice a favorite habit
I l.av- of pushing my hand into the side
p. ckels of my overcoat? Well, I did it
lli-.t ::i-r::in. Tbeact wasan ajtoaisher.
I 'en a hand came out as if I had pushed
t! em into dens of rultiesua.ke or bed ol
na'.'1
" V. "I::;t did you do that for?" asked a
listener whe;i t heold typoKrapherstopiM-d,
uTter neroii-i- reientinK the operaAiou
.I that cinbcr djv lu potitoUiiiue.
"Don't hurry, boys; 111 tell yon, but it
must be in my way. My hair fairly stood
on end, after that operation, and I held
my breath. There was only one thing for
me to do. I did it. The cocktail I drank
gave me courage, but when I wandered tc
the crowded reading-room I was almost
like a crazy man.
"Just as I reached the table a man rose
and I dropped into his seat. Then put
ting my teeth firmly together, I thrust
both hands into my pockets airain. I felt
as if every eye In the room wa on me. I
know they were when an instant later I
drew out both hands full of " He besi-
tated.
What?" aked several of the party In
chorus. .
"Greenbacks. Greenbacks of all de
nominations from ones up to twenties.
Greenback rolled up in little wads, irreg
ular in shape, size and value.
"Well, I was as much astonished as any
one in the room. I know I showed it, but
I braced up and put handful after hand
ful of Kood money on the taiIe in front ot
me. Then, my pockets beiu emptied, I
straightened them out deliberately and
then Wepan to count. There was M27 in
the pile before me.
"Astonlshoii? Well, boys, yon never
saw a man so astonished in your life. I
rolled the bills up in a wad and stuffed
them into my pocket, and. as you may
suppose, went and ttsik a ill i-.k. Then I
left the hotel and t tee ted for Wrecker
street, where in those day there wa.i
restaurant that Bohemians used to fre
quent. 1 here I sat down to try and think
the thinjt out."
Hi s:oiy wa apparently ended. He
relai f: into si!enci.
"Why you won your money at the faro
table, an.l probably cashed in your chips
aa fast as you wcu, and nhcved the money
into your pi.'et. That's er.sy."
"Oh. y .. it's an easy theory," resumed
the typographer; "hut it had all Ix-en
done when I was absolutely unconscious.
Xotnuliuniling the fact thut it w.i-ikkI
luck it frightened me, and I haven't
played faro from that day to this."
"'Twas a quer experience, surely,
remarked the journalist who heard the
yarn. "And I suppose that money wa
the ateppii'x stone to jour prot-sut for
tuue?" he added.
"Oh, yes, cf course! Fortune? Lord,
man. If you were as poor a I am now you
wouldn't tire off such a remark a t hat.
Stepping stone toa lortuue, indeed' Why,
when 1 came to realize that I li. id so much

WITHOUT FAULT.
John Martin had been married only a
few weeks when, one Snnday, it came
into his head to propose so his wife that
they should plainly and honestly make
known the faults that each had discovered
in the other since they had been man and
wife.
Mr. Martin, after some hesitation,
agreed to the proposal, stipulating, how
ever, that the recital should lie honestly
made, and with the sole aim of mutual
amendment. The husband was of the
same mind, and the wife aked him to
lead otT with her faults.
John Martin coughed and looked
a'kanre at hi. demure little wife. He
wa loth to la-gin. He stroked hi heard,
shufUed bis feet, and cleared hi throat,
but no word did be utter.
"Weil, my dear, as you were the first to
propose thi matter, and as yon are the
bead of the house, it teems but just for
you to speak flrt."
Thus ur?ed, John Martin gave a pre
liminary "hem," cast a dubious glance
towards his wife, who, with her plump,
dimpled hand. folded in hersnowy apron,
and with serion face.sat lookiu straight
before her, ami thn liegan:
"Dear child, the first fault that I have
to mention i that you do not keep the
tinware a bright a it should lie. It fre
quently hnwi stains of smoke. My
mother always kept her tinware bnrn
ished like silver."
'Thank yon, dear, for mentioning It,"
and Mrs. Martin rlis;ht!y colored. "In
future you shall see no stain or speck on
cup, !ot or pan. Goon, dear."
John Martin'. face brightened, and his
voice became less husky, as he proceeded.
"I have also obrved that yon often
use your dish-cloths for a day cr two
without wahing, and finally throw them
away. Now my mother always washed
her dish-cloths when done us:n them,
then hung them up to dry, ready for the
next time she would need them."
Blushing as before, tho young wife
promised to amend in thi particular.
"I hare noticed thatyon throw away
not a little dry bread. Now, I rememWr
that when at home my mother nrver
threw dry bread into the scrap-basket, but
ntilized it in making very palatable pud
dings." The color deepened on Mrs. Martin's
cheeks, and descended to her neck as she
said:
"Thank yon. dear. I shall not forgot.
Pray proceed."
Being now thoronjhly warmed rp with
hi subject, and fully launched npon his
cruise for faults of emission and commi.
sion, John Martin's timiditydissppeared,
and in a cl-ar earn.-.-t voice he continued
till he bad brought forth quite a formid
able array of faults. He then heaved a
sigh of relief aud declared he could think
of nothing more.
The young housewife sat in silence, her
chiu quivering and a something rising in
her throat that would not "down."
'Now, my dear, proceed!" cried John
Martin. "Tell me all the faults you have
oliserved in me since our marriage, and
spare me not."
"Are you sure, dear, that you Lave
thought, of all my f uit?"said Mrs. Mar
tin, "fan you not think of ft n.e other
lit t le thing in which 1 have failed?"
Well, dear. s.t:d John, stroking bis
beard and gazing fixedly at the toes bis
boots, "well, I have sometime thought
that the windows are not k- t qmle as
clran a iny mother kept thoae of her
hi.itse."
1 fear you are lii.Lt, John," gulped the
little wile. - , . .- .
"Now, dear, for my faults!" cried John
Martin; "pile them npon my bead."
The uuder-lipof the little woman trem
bled. For a moment Fhe sat silent, then
suddenly rising and throwing her arms
about bcr husband's neck, she burst into
tears.
"What have I done? What have I
done?' cried John Martin.
"Oh, John, my husband, I am unworthy
of you! How often, dear, must I Lave
pained and worried you? I fear I have
driven all love from your heart. Oh,
John, John, bear with me, teach me. I
will amend in all things!"
Nonense, nonsense, Mary! I love you
as I love my life far lctter than when
you became my wife! Go on, dear, and
tell me my faults. Dry jour tears and
give it to me'."
'My dear husband, yon have not a fanlt
in the world not a fanlt! If you Lave
even one, my love for you has so bliudod
my eyes that I have failed to see it. All
that you do or say seems good iu my eyes.
You seem to do and say everything in t he
best manner, in such a way as always
make me feel proud of you."
"But. good gracious! Mary, my dear!"
cried John Martin, his face reddening nnd
his voice becoming thick with t-niotion
"good gracious, Mary! just think; why,
here I have gone on aud found all man
ner of fault with j-ou! Now, I know I
have many faults teu times as many as
you have, or ever will Lave, poor child!
I..et me have them; show me np!"
"Indeed, husband, it is as I tell yon;
you have not a single fault that I can see.
You seem at all time to do that which is
right ami best. Bear with me, Jo'tn
bear with me for a time; for now that I
know what a good-for-nothing little
wretch I am, I shall at once begin the
work of reform shall try to make myself
worthy of you."
"You are already too good for me,
Mary. I am not deserving of to good a
little wife such a dear, patient little
woman! You know well enough I often
go away and leave you without any wood
cut; I stay up town when I ought to be at
home with you; I spend money for drinks
and cigars when I should bring it home
to you; I "
"You do not, John yon do not! I do
not remember an instance of the kind.
And what if yon did what if you did? I
like to w-e you enjoy yourself; I should lie
unhappy were you to do otherwise than
just us you like."
"Htaveu bless yon, little wife!" cried
John Martin, now completely subju
gated "Heaven bless you! From this
mon-.ent yon Lave not a fanlt in the world
cot, a solitary fault. Indeed, you never
bad a fault. I was but joking, Mary,
when I spoke; of the tinware, the dish
cloths, and thoe other matters merely
joking little woman, ha, La, La! Aud
you tor k itall seriously? It waat jobadl"'
and John kissed away the tear. Le had
caused to fl-.w.
"It will not do, John it will rot do.
All yon f-aid was but too t rue; I see it all
now. But bear with me. instruct mc,
and I wiil do my Ijest in all t hin";s."
Never n;.'ain did John Martin scrutinize
tho tiuw.-sre, examine the dishcloths, titer
into corners in search of dust never
ai;.tin even so much as mention one ot the
faults he Lad cumucfalcd. .
It was not Jong os.oie tha nc'gVcc;
women might have been heard to say:
"How wonderfully neat Mrs. Martin
keeps everything about her house. Her
tinware is ul ways as bright a new silver,
and it does look a if she not only washes,
but also iron her very dishcloths. What
a housekeeper she is!"
And men bej;an to say:
"What a steady fellow John M.irtin ha'
got to 1 cf late! What has come over
him? He doesn't spend cents now whero
he used to spend dollars, and ho can
j never be kept from home half an honr
' when he i not at work. He seems to al
! most worship that little wifo of bis."

DARBY AND JUAN.
A spring rain was faliins gently, con
tinuously, on Mrs. True's garden. The
lately transplanted geraniums and pe
tunias lifted their bead gratefully to the
warm shower, and the fuchsias and sweet
alyssum brightened under its influence.
If their mistress could have seen them,
she, too, would have rejoiced, for the
flowers were her children, pet ted darlings,
for whom no care could be too great, no
attention too painstaking. She had
housed them in winter, set them out in
summer, trimmed, guarded, hung over
over them year after year.
Involuntarily one looked for her mild
face at the window, smiling out upon
them, but she was not to be seen. For
the second time only in br life Mrs. Trno
lay in her chamber, two ill to heed the
pattering ruin, or to think of the plants
growing so fast in the sweet, moist air,
even though, through the open window
of her room, both sounds aud scents en
tered freely, the peaceful sounds and
healthful scents of the country.
It was very still in the room where she
lay; very still and orderly. The old fur
niture w.-rs polished and speckles.; the
linen as white as mow; against the pil
low, which tad been a part of her bridal
outlit, rested the gray head, still neatly
cared for, and the face, with its pallor,
still wore a look of kindly impatience.
At her side sat her husband, good
Deacon True, with bowed Lead and sad
eyes; and in Lis work-hardened hand be
held her feeble one.
l'resently a footstep sounded on the
muddy sidewalk outside. Then the gate
latch clicked. Someone walked up tho
path and tapped softly on the house door,
and was as softly admitted.
But the two, with their faces turned
toward each other, took no notice.
"flow is she?" said tho neighbor down
stair who Lad "dropped in."
"Failin'," answered Fidelia Perkins,
the iirai.l of all work, temporarily tu
gaied for the emergency.
"How's Le?"
"Fairly beat ont with grlevin'. Seems's
if he hadn't no heart for eatin'or drinkin
or uothin'. Just settiu' up there along o'
her, and holdin her band. I never did
tttt: folks set sech store by each other as
they do."
"Well, they haven't nobody else to set
Ftore by, you see." said the visitor, estab
lishing herself by the fire, and holding
out two substantial feet to the blaze.
"No, that's so," assented Fidelia, tak
ing out her knitting. "Now you just
make yourself comfortable. Mis' Clap.
I'm real glad to see somebody. It's
dreadful lonesome here. Jest those two
still critters upstairs, and me and the cat
downs-airs, aud nothin' on earth to do.
Why, there ain't so much as a teaspoon
ful of dirt to clean up nowhere in the
Louse. I never did see such house-
1 i eni n' "
"She was a master hand for clcar.tn',"
stid Mrs. Clapji, shaking her head
thought 'ully, "and as I say, there waru't j
no children to make dirt."
"No, there warn'!, hut them plants is
about as bad. to my thinkiUj' cluttering
np t he p'.aei. half the year. 111111 bavin' 10
trail r. round with a waterin ;ot, and
wcedin'and ttewin' over 'em the rest of
the t ime. She took a tight of comfort ia
'cm, though." ;
"She was a real good woman, Mis True
wa," sighed Mrs. Clapp, speaking al
ready in the p.vt tense.
"And he's a powerful rood man."
'There aiu't no Letter."
fiieerseili good folk hadn't a family."
"Well, 1 he- did have one child."
"Do tell I never heard of it before.
Boy or girl?"
"Boy. I believe; law, Mis' True was
most tickled to denth abont it. She w.13
as proud a an old ben with one chick,
but ir didn't last long. I was sent for to
nurse her, and she was a dreadful sick
woman, out of her Lead, just ravingnbout
that baby; poiu' on about what si.e was
inclining t o do for it-
'She had it all planned ont .for a life
time Low she was a-goin' to rock Lim to
t-Ii-ep night, and Low, by and by, be was
agoiu to set to the table in a L; h chair
alongside of her, and, finally. Low h- was
to take the farm aud live with them al
ways. My! she wa ramblin'on so fast
and a smiling away to Lers-lf. while- t lie
rest of us me and the doctor ::nd tho
deacon was jest a-ligbtin for that b iby's
life. Ar.d, .it last, when she come to he-r-
k-1I t here warn t notliin out a waa ijauy
to shew her."
"Dear, dee.r! did she t ike en much?"
said Fidelia, dropping her knitting in her
lap.
"Take or. Well, not like pome folks.
She didn't screech nor cry; but she jest
turned awful while, aud her yes g t big
and bad lov.kin'; it was enough to ha'nt
you to s -, iu, and i he never said not hiu'
tome; jet moaned, and caught ahold of
the deacon's coat sleeve 8s if s!- needed
Mimet hiu' to comfort Ler. It did seem's
if her heart wa broke sure. She never
had 110 more children."
I gues. : list's why they've "been so set
on each other," mused Fidelia.
"Well, a. t.i that, there ain't no tellin'.
Some few folk are so considerate and
feelin" but mighty few. Most married
folk get find of liviu' togethrr, or, at any
rate, lii'-y appear so, to houif. The deacon
and Mis' True they 's been like they was
a'courtiu' all these yeais. He's done all
the chore. for her that a mortsl man
could do, and she's been as sweet to him
well, as sweet as one of them doves a-cooia'
awsr out VhfTg on the barn."
"Hark! What's that?" said Fidelia,
lirilding up one Land, warnincly.
It was only the sound of a weal; voice,
aliove, and a deeper voice trying to an
swer soothingly.
While the two women had talked the
afternoon Lad waned. The rain seemed
like fast falling tears. The flowers, some
of them, were closing drowsily. The
shallows were deepeting. The light
green foliage of a birch tree near the
bouse looked gray in the twilight.
Through the open chamber window
above sounded the sleepy trill of a bird,
talely snuggled in his nest under the
joung leave.
Curiously enough this tender note
aloue had the power to rouse the dying
woman. She had always been in close
sympathy wilh all fair b'-lplcs things,
flowers, young bird and infant. Now,
in her extremity, this weak cry pierced to
her heatt and woke in-r.
"Where's the hi; by?" she whispered.
"Why don't they bring the baby to me"
She was living over :. gain h.-r only sick
ness. She taticii-d L- rself yoi::'.g once
more, young m.d filled with a strsinge
great happiness.
The years lietween had vanished. TLey
were happy y.-ars, too, happier than nio-t
people ciijoy, for her de'ii-es Lad lcn
cw..y graiined, her ambit ions nc.c .a
simplest kind.

grass greor gre-en rt.d tin- white v.-.'i 's
flourished over a certain sn.ni. mo : -. i-i
the graveyard; there were the u'-.i.c:
hmits of her LotKn.
Her one great grief had grown tob.'-r.
tender memory, and all the day sin.-i-Lad
lieen prosperous and seivne, un
clouded by one harsh look or word.
Now, suddenly, she was young .-gin, a
young wife iu her new home, wii !i i ll her
humble household treasure new nbo-.;t
her, and this thrill of ex.ec!aii-jn iu Ler
breast.
"Where's the baby? Why don't thoy
bring the baby to me?" sho repealed,
eagerly.
Her husband leaned forward, pressirg
her hand in both of his.
"The baby?" he said; "what baby?"
For him the ad present had swallowed
up t lie past.
"Our baby," she whispered, with a lock
of raptnre in her faded eyes.
"Oh, Lois!"
He L-eut hi head Ft ill lnTf. TI a
shadowy child of their sect:,. .1 hardly
more than a dream to him. jh- !.;..!
never held it, or played with it, or t.t:s..-d
to it in imagination, as she had.
"Hi name is Johth, for you," ccn
tinued the dying woman, t rving 1 o 1 ig'iteii
her clasp of the band bohiiiig her.-, and
looking earnest lr i;p at him.
"lb- wiil be lift le Jo. Pet I'T s his

"Yes, yes, Lois."
"But why don't thfy brlrg h'rsi to mc?

I want to feel his little Land on my f o-e

"Hush, hush, Lois, 1esr."
"Perhaps th-y don't know where l i.i

The old man croaned aloud Br.d tried to
quiet Ler, but without nieces. Out
doors a wind was ri-ing. a soft wind, ft a
grant with the hitler sweet 1 i;-.it Ii ot
blossoming poach trees. It sighed at l he
open window, and swept a branch of the
birch tree against the upper pain .
The deacon tried to rise to c lose the
glass, but she moved uneasily as if in sit
np in bed. II.' put his arms out to sup
port her. Siio hardly seemed to tee or
feci thciii. Slowly her face rr'.-w rad.':'.i.t
wit li till Jit i-e and delight.
"Ah, you have brought him to ir" nt

"Quick, give h i:n to me here. 1 ! .se to t:.y

She h id her arm as if they en-lre-h-d a
little form, and bent her face over t L-.-tu
in teiid. rest mother fashion.
"My babj ! my baby'" she wbi;--m-d,
then, with 11 sigh of utter contt i.t, .-ui:k
back upon la r pillows.
