Jnst then the djjr softly swung open, and in tripped a brijrht, pretty damsel of two or three and twenty, in a ooOjUettih fall hat triaiiu.l with scarlet poppies and bows of clu-rry velvet, and a lieautiful jetted mantle. "Clara!" cried L.trbara. nearly upset ting the work ba- ket in her surprise and alelijrht. "How came you here!" "In spite of the edict; No followers allowed?'" laughingly retort "! C'.nra lSelden.

"How lieautifully you are dressed. Clar!" said ISarbura, with admiring sur vey. "You have pot a situation at last?" Clara no-lded, and adjusted a clitter U(X new silver bangle on her wrist. "A good one," said she.emii'iatically. "I'm in the company of tho Cecelian theater," explained Clara. "We are supposed t be singer i, but our voices don't signify a pin. The Cecelian takers pride in its chorus boi ng the handsomest girls in town. An 1 you are pretty, ISarbara. you know very well prettier than I am, if you would only give yourself a chance. I could make a first-class beauty of you! And it's only the evenings, you see, with an hour or so at morning rehearsaL and a matinee once a week and it's Ktich fun. There's one young man in the audience who has thrown a bou quet to me every night for eight nights running. And there are suppers and breakfasts and all that sort of thing." Involuntarily Harbara drew back. "ISut, Clara is it right to " 'Right! Oh, you silly little goose, why not? Ttere's Mrs. Dowdin, the bandmaster's wife, to chaperon us, isn't there?

I knew you had a nice mezzo-soprano voice, but, as I said before, that don't matter so much, as long as you are so pretty. A brunette, too we have an overplus of blondes already. And I knew, also, that you were only getting fourteen dollars here with an old martinet for a command ing officer. Come, am I not a good friend to you?" Still ISarbara looked with question ing eyes at the handsome, voluble girL Could it be possible that this self-possessed, beautifully-dressed woman was Clara 1 Soldo n, her classmate at school, and only a month older than herself? Sixty dollars! Yes, it was kind of Clara it would indeed oe an outlet of escape from this wretched, grinding bondage of her daily life- Sixty dol lars, with .uppers, bouquets admira tion unlimited. ISarbara drew her breath with a gasp. It seemed almost too much to realize. Just then Mary, the housemaid, tip toed into the room, with her finger on ! her lips. "Miss Rlake," said she, with a side j long glance of admiration at the showy j visitor in her silks, bangles and "breath ! of roses," "the ould lady is afthcr wakin' up as cross as two sticks. An' ' she says you ve forgot her morning tonic and Hi jou's collar is too tight, and : this way, miai, pl'aze," as Clara rose precipitately. It s as much as me place is worth for Mrs. Dickinson to know that S::ss lllake had company unbeknown to i -r! Itun quick, pl'iize. Miss ISlake 1 cut hear her scolding now: "Never mind, deiar!" ene-ouragingly whispered Clara, as sle ru .tied by, leaving an odor of franggipanni in her wake; "the odious shackles will soon ilrop off. Send me a line at once. Mr. Dowdin can't wait!" Mis. Dickinson had never lecn so ir ritaide. so hard to please, as she was that .lay. Or, at least, so it see'mod tea ISarbara. ISut there was an exultant thrill in the girl's heart. "It need uot be for long." she teild 'te-rse-lf. "1 will write immediately and jeea-pt Clara's kind otTor. " ISut ucvcrthcle"ss a certain regretful fee-ling kept pulling at her heart strings.

"I don't think, though." slowly added Eugene's gentle, leisurely voice, "that your plan is quite- fe-asible. " "Not feasible! W hy not?" "Perhaps because it conflicts with a plan of my own." "A plan of your own! My dear loy, ilo explain." "'ihe fact is. Aunt Adriana," said Eugene. "I have lost my heart to this sweet-voiced, sweet-natured companion of yours. I want to ask her to be my wife." Mrs. Dickinson was silent a moment; then she spoke again, in an altered ac cent. 'I wender this never occurred to me before," said she. "It was not so very tmlikely, was "Not in the least. ISut, Eugene " "Yes Aunt Adriana." "Why need my xlan conflict with yours? ' "I don't think I quite understand you.

ISarbara had sat tl'ere 'with iudi Why both hands clasped over her burning face. Was she an eavesdropper? If so. the fault was unintentional. Now she hur ried away, almost believing herst-lf to le in a dream. Sure'y, surely this could not be true this lifting of the curtain of trial and toil this clear shining tf a new life? ISut as she passed the parlor door it opened and Eugene Dickinson met her face to face. "Miss ISlake!" he exclaimed. "You are the very person 1 have been wish ing to see. Will you honor me with a few minutes of your time?" Clara ISclJen was at her evening toilet, with a surrounding of mirrors, rouge pots, darkening pencils and high ly scented pomades whe-n ISarhara's brief note of declination reached her. "What a fool!" said Clara- "Iteach me that nail polisher, Jane. But, at all events she's had a chance." ISut Miss lSelden did not know what other "chances" ISarbara ISlake bad had. The Home Queen.

Star-Eyes had been kidnaped by his kindred in revenge for Fleet-Faaol's refusal to join thorn: that was evident. There was a gr- -t commotion among the settlers wh they hoard of tin dastardly act- .'.!13- of them wore eager for immediate pursuit of the captors, but Fleet-Foot dissuaded them by saving that tho Indians would sure ly kill the pap. mso if they found that they were followed, and lei,U- there would Ih- dange-r of ambush by a large patty of Indians About ten days after this episode, just before daylight in the morning. Fleet-Foot and Minnawaqiia were sud denly av. aliened by the voice of Star Eves at the door, crying bitterly. In r. trice the child was in 1 he arms of his overjoyed parents, but they wore sur prised to lind him tremblingly feeling their faces with his hands. What was the matter? He always stioke in Eng lish. -Star-Eyes tan't see." True- enough, he was totally blind, although the big, lustrous -ves looked just as natural as on the day he was alxlucted. Fleet-Foot understood it all. The tribe had wreaked their venireanoe by blinding the innocent child and then stealthily returned him. The settlers wore wild with rage when they hoard of it. Some of them were eager for an expedition against the Indians hut cooler counsa-ls pre vailed. Among the settlers were a uakcr family from Philadelphia, who ha.l taken a special interest in Fleet-Foot's little family. Part of the (Quaker family, including the mother, were alxut to make a journey to the citv- to visit their friends, and it w as suggested that Minnawaqua and her blind child should accompany tin 111 in order that the latter's -yes might In examined by an oculist aud treated if there w as any prospect of restoring the sight. It was a tedious journey in those days on horseback all the way to Har rislmrg and thence by primitive stage coacli. but it was accomplished, and the little blind papoose was taken to an eminent "oculist. Examination show,-,! that the eyes had leen blinded by holding close to them, with the lids opened, a very hot object, probably either a red-hot iron r a super-heated stone. It was not the first case known of such Indian atrocity. The oculist did his best to fepair the vision but all he could accomplish was to restore just suT'.iciciit sight for the child to distinguish lK-tweeii light and shade. He could distinguish persons only by their voices. Ten 3-ears passed and the line of set tlement reached further up the valley. The kind Quaker family moved a dozen miles ataovc to the mouth of Pine creek, and Fleotfoot. with throe chil dren in addition to the nearly blind boy, determined to move westward with them. It was didicult for tlw In dian, even with the help of Minnawa qua in basket making, to earn a living for his little family. There were white hunters in the woods now and game was getting comparatively scarce. Even after the removal to Pine creek the Indian was sorely prossa-d by pov erty aud he soon alotcrminod, though with great reluctance, to join his tribe at the headwaters of the river, nearl3 forty miles away. It was a sad parting.
