A VACATION JI0KXIX0 Aunt Hetty and the College Girl Just Homo from SchooL Out under the rose-arl)r in the pleasant front yard of the parsonage. IJ.-tty IKxter, the minister's only luuprhter, and her roomiiiite at col lege, pretty Kose Hun tou, in their fresh summer (,'owns are chatting- mer rily with Maininu Dexter while they re lie veil a pa-nt dish of strawberries of their stems. Hetty, a collepe senior now, was seareely a leauty, though her liarul-s-une, smilino- brown eyes male one f..r-.:et any little irregularity of fea ture. And though everyone in eollee, at least in the upper classes, knew that she was only a minister's daughter, ami though anj' pirl with half an eye could trace the transmigration prog ress in lier hals and dress, and knew that she could never jfive' a really handsome spread, yet no o-irl within the colle-re urates was so popular as Hetty Dexter. No pirl had so many invitations for vacation, so many en-ira-renients to walk, drive, row and ir intt the city; but nearly all of her vacations were spent at home with the ever-bu-ij mother and the delicate father, who made many self-denials in order to meet the slender college bills. With her this summer, by spe cial request, of the mother, had come her room-mate, little Uo.se Houston, the orphan heiress from New Orleans, who loved Hetty better than she loved anyone else in the wide world. "Ours is a tiny dot of a home," said Hetty, "and mother an l I do most of the work top-ether; but you will have a royal . welcome, dear." And Kose, beiiifTa genuine, though- a very desul tory sort of girl, by reason of her long .years of orphanage and years of traveling- about with a maid and her guar dian, had been more than glad to come. ' ..-'... On tlie little table in the rose arbor, -beside frs. "Dexter's workinpr basket, was a volume of "The Vision of Sir Launfal," which " the ladies had been reading- in turn. "There is such a musicial swing; to those last verses," said Kose, "that one is forced to remember them: "-Who gives himself with his alms feeds three Himself, his hungerina neighboring and me.' " "Hut really," said Hetty, "it is ouly tlie purest sellishness to be kind und fferierous to others, for the reward is so sweet." "And here comes over the hill a re ward for two busy young1 housekeep ers. I suspect," said Mrs. lexter, as the sound of a tally-liorii from the coach of a neighboring1 mountain re sort was heard rolling in peculiar ca dence .aiming the echoes. "It is a charming day for a coaching party." A nearer sound, however, attracted theis ailcutiou before tho couch could reach the fate a sound of the queru lous, high, cracked voice of an old 'woman in gown and bonnet that may Have been bravely fashionable fifty years ag-o. - "So glad to find you at home, Hetty;, "and your ma, too. Walked all the way frfmi Chatham Mills on purpose to see ye and hear all about the college. I hain't' seeti-ye in a long1 time, and I have been longing for a sight of your sweet face." .'.They gave ' her cordial greeting, this old Aunt. Hetty from Ulake's Corners, and Hetty kissed, with genuine affoc-' . tion, the withered face, once outward ly beautiful and now shining' with in-' ward goodness, which act inn Uose no ticed with a bit of jealousy; for Uose exectel her friends to be very loyal to her, and loyalty, from her stand point, meant caring much for her and litll.? for others. It was a part of her edtn-.ition and perhaps no one could blame her. Indeed, one reason why she had so gladly accepted the invitation to the parsonage had been that she wished to have Uose all to herself. At college some one was always seeking her; but here she thought it would be otherwise. Yesterday, however, there had been a Sunday-school vlass to en tertain, and .here was the old lady. The coaching party would take them IrjUi away, no doubt, and certainly at Mrs. Dextcr's ape, she, and not the daughter, would bv the proper one to entertain Aunt Hetty. So Hose settled the alFair in her own infnd. It was a gay company on the great coach, with a little frriif of a bugler and twenty j'onng people on top, while the cliajH'i'ons were suugly bestowed inside. If you doubt whether so many could find space on a mountain tally ho, just present the problem and the coach to a party of that size, on a fine slimmer morning, and they will speed ily prove the truth of my statement Two smiling young men, in sur.imer flannels, and cheeks reddened by the brisk drive, were on the ground lieft.re the coach had time to stop, and were inaMujr their salutations to the ladies and their request to Mrs. Dex ter. Thev were goin'f to Eagle ClilT for a day's outing; party well ch:i eroned, horses and driver absolutely reliable. Could the young ladies join them? And a chorus of girlish voices added their entreaties, while the lxvy bugler blew a del ieately suggestive little songlet out into the air by- way of liatterin"; invitation. Aunt Hetty's old ej-es filled with tears of disappointment, bnt she brave-.

"Got up at five oV-IfK-k.' did all the work, tramped Over to Zene Lucas . tK catch a ride on his milk-cart, and then walked three miles ' more from the mills in the hot sun.- and allfor.noth- - in?. she was thinking. .. "Hut,'-dear me! I was a pretty girl once myHl f .? -and had iny.gooj times', too." Ko-ft' chanced that what she' said,, in all sin-. - cerity and - earnestness,- was. almost convincing;. "Ik go right along, Het-! ' ty. 1 shall le over a'ain in a few" days, inebbe, and this will give me-' a nice chance to visit with your ma." And by avoiding Hetty's eye the old lady considered that she had made a very neat thing of her hard task. Rose turned eagerly to Mrs. Dexter and waited; but Hetty took the old, withered hands that were nervously clasping and unclasping in excitement, and without a shadow of regret on lips or in her heart, said: -"I am' so much obiig-ed to3'ou, Tom. but I have other pleasures on baud for to-Jay. Hut Miss Houston will go. I .think. You have never seen 'Eagle C'liir. dear," she con tinned, turning to her friend, "and it is glorious up there ' in the darkness of the pines." Hut the .sunny face of the heiress was clouded with disappointment; and to hide that look from Aunt Hetty's sharp eyes, Hetty drew her friend quietly away to the house to prepare for tint drive. "'Tain't no matter alxmt me at all," said Aunt Hetty. "Hetty won't stay at lo nr. s on my account, will she?" asked the wavering old voice. "She said that she had some pleasant plans for to-day." answered the moth er, with a loving glance down the walk where her daughter was waviug her hand to the departing coachers. You may think the girl was practic ing self-denial; but her mother de tected no trace of regret or d isa p. hit men t in the dear face, and Aunt Hetty had one of the happiest days in JieV ' whole life a day remembered with deepest gratitude to the last of her sm in-closing life. Looking over photographs is a com monplace amusement to most of usj but when one's eyes have seen just a I xiiit the same sights year after year, for over fifty years, until the world seems made up of little brown farm houses and barns and sheds, and the church and store ouce a week, then a glimpse of handsome buildings, broad lawns diver.silied with picturesque cot tages anil groups of pretty girls scat tered aliout under the trees, of art treasures gleaming in marble white ness, of smotilli waters covered with ita-ticing- boats rowed, by girlisli oars men, of study parlors decorated and enshioued in the last ami daintiest fashion of- college girls then, I say, looking; over photographs ceases to be commonplace. Hetty had no end of pleasant stories to tell of the college life; of its good times and disapiKiintn.eiits; of tho days .when she visited the great city and walked through the busy streets .which Aunt Hetty had never seen; of , .the concert when Hetty hud beeu r.how ered with roses by her enthusiastic classmates, an.l how some of the roses were as large across as a saucer, and so sweet; of the days when she worked so busily to refashion the three sea sons' old hats or gowns into dainty confections fit to be worn by the side of the gay headgear of her compan ions. She lived over again all -her pleasant college days, her freshman iiojios, sophomore . ambitions and junior triumphs. She brought out Uose's banjo and made Aunt Hetty's face shine with youthful delight as she saug the lively boating songs and rollicking tunes beloved of college girls and men. For Aunt Hetty had leen a lively girl, too. in her day. and loved merry times. She would always lie a little gayer in spirit, a little less likely to sit down in her old brown, worn room and think of her bereave ments, than she had Ih-cii; and once in awhile, out in the little orchard where not even the hired man could hear her, or by the winter hearth when the wise cat vas asleep, she would hum to herself, with great sat isfaction, some of these college airs. They had a pretty luncheon of bouil lon, lettuee sandwiches, fre.-.h eggs,' lierrieS, and a RTeat golden eustard pie, Aunt Hetty's special delight. TlieAi Hetty's deft fingers attacked the time worn black ltonnct, to make it look a little more "like folks," as its owner expressed it; and if a particular piece of black rililxni which was to have made a smart bow on her own little turban "made sunshine in a sha-ly place," so to speak, on the dreary waste of that ancient piece of hea 1-gear I think that none of Hetty's friends missed it, because under the turban, was a face that made you forget what was above it. ."Who i-'ives himself with his alms, feeds three.

And She Kept Her Helpless Father . ' Afloat Until Rescued.. .,- - ,.On a pleasant morning in summer . .-sbtne fifteen years ago a little schoon'' ertuippea ncr moorings at Laupahoe- itoe, Hawaii, and starleaw her voy age to Honolulu. So small was the little 'craft that her only crow was one slender girl, the daughter of the cap tain.'"' lhe had beeu- sailing with her father since shcAwas so small that he had to plaeo a box for her to' stand on , when he wished her to hold the wheel while he bandied the sails if by chance any change of course was necessary. . ." Kalili was about fifteen, a tali, slen der girl, whose brown cheek was round and ruddy with the rich blood which leaped through her veins, for Kalili. having been reared in the open air, most of the time on the broad ocean, . was strong and health)-, and well able to do the work required of her on the. schooner. 1 Wheh they left. Lau pa hoe hoe the sun shone brilliantly, but old Kalamaiiu shook his head and looked -gravel)- toward a bank of black clouds which were piled' up high above the. top of lofty Mauua Ioa. Kalili cared little for her father's misgivings. She was anxious to get away, for the next day was a holiday, and she. wished ; to reach Honolulu in time to enjoy lu?r self with her companions. While she stood holding the wheel anl keeping the little craft 01 it course, she was dreaming of the luau to which she had Wen bidden and thinking of the bright. Ieis which she would weave in her dusky hair and hang around her dimpled shoulders. -Her holoku would beas pretty as any there, and she knew that at least one pair of eyes would see that leis and dress were both worn by a beautiful girl. Dreaming thns, she did not notice the change which was coming over the 'sky did not see the white caps, which showed that the wind was raising swiftly anil would soon sweep across the wide channel with resistless force. The pleasant islands of the southern sea are not always serene and placid. Sometimes the kona comes howling and shrieking down the dark canyo:is ami through the narrow gorges, smit ing everything before it to the ground. When it comes Jod help the hapless craft which is in its road, trod only can help, for the blows which the wind and waves deal upon the tossing, writhing vessel are heavy enough to ilrivj it bodily beneath the waters. Kalamauu hail neither holoku nor leis to dream of, so be had seen the kona coming and iiad been preparing to meet it to the ln-st of his ability. lie had given the girl his orders ia quick, sharp tones, and she had mechanically oWyed them, "but without realizing what the change of course meant- Sud denly she was awakened, and roughly, from her dreams. A wall of white water rose high nlxive the side of the vejksijaii.l dashed down 11 Kin the deck, drenching the girl to the skiu. ith the shock she came back to the" present, and, looking around, saw' that -what but a short time before was a " siuootli placid stretch of blue -water -was now a foaming, raging sea, dash ing its waves high aliove the low rail" of the schooner. The wind whistled and howled around her ears. She could scarcely hear her father as he shouted his orders to her from a few feet distant- Filled with terror, she -kept the vessel on its course, but only by the exertion of her whole strength. Louder and louder roared the wind," and higher yet climln-d the waves. The sun still shone brightly above her head, seeming to make the scene more frightful than it would have appeared Wncath a cloudy sky. A kona may Idow for days and it may pass in au hour. Their only hope was that this one had arisen so suddenly that it would subside as quickly. -. Kalauiantt watched the black cloud which bail first given him warning of coining trouble, and saw, to his. joy, that it was passing away. . Kvi-th-ntly the ktina would not, last many kours, but -could the little vessel, built for sailing on a summer sea, stand that terrible wrenching and twisting even for that short ti'ne? She was new and reasonably strong, but the blows she had bulfered might well have destroyed a stronger ves-iel. lie could only hope for the lcst and hold on to the rail until the wind fell. I le had done all that was possible to save his vessel. God must do the rest. The wi.id was surely sinking, the waves did not rise so high above his head. ' The worst was over anil he turned his head to speak to the girl, vt ho. still clung to the wheel. Ihen came a crash. An immense wave. h:td broken over the stem, filled the little hold and the little schooner was sinking under their feet. Kalili was 'as much at home on water as oil laud, like all Ha waiians, jiinl as mh m as she caught her breath she rose in the water and looked alxmt for t.omethinr' to aid her in her tight with the se.i. and for her father, for wliose safety she had no fear. Hut she saw him slowly sinking beneath the angry waves, lie had been inj.ired by a blow from sotnethin;r as the water dashed across the deck, carrying whatever l.-nse articles still remained on the deck. Swimming swiftly to his side, Kalili c:iu rht hold of him and raisetl his head above the water. lie was not insen sible, ami iu a few moments was able to support himself on the water, but In- had been injured so severely that ho was unable to swim. They were at least twenty-five miles from laud, alone on the tossing sea, without even a broken oar to assist tiicni, and she, a helpless girl, must do what she could to save not only her own life,. but her injured father. Kala manu had put on Lis oilskin coat and his sea lots when first the waves be gan to break above the rail, and these added to his weight. Kalili knew that she conld never hojie to Keep him alloat so wei.a'hted down. The coat and !oots 1:111st l-e re moved. 1 he man could move his arms, feebly, and he assisted her in remov ing the heavy coat. Then she dove down 1cliind him, and after many at tempts succeeded in getting the boots olt. Then she started to swim back over the course they had sailed that day. Think of it! Alone, twenty-five miles from land, with the sea a tossing, tumbling waste of water.' She deter v.- ' . " OI.BO and naitflm nnr annr In nrivanrA.

' The" wind had died entirely away .and the sea. was rapidly subsiding. That much ws in her favor. Then, too, she knew the, next morning the -steamer Like-Li Je would cross the channel on her way from Hilo to Hon olulu. If she could keep afloat, could see tlie-etcamer, could 'make those on hoard see her, then -she might hope for . rescue. Keeping her eyes fixed on the - dstaht mountain, she swani on ami on, sometimes towing her father by his arm thrown across her shoulders, sometimes pushing him forward with her breast and using lioth arms." some times holding him with one hand and swimming with the other. . .- Hour after hour passed. She became exhausted, and, ' turning upon her back, floated for a while to rest her strained arms and shoulders; then again she swam on. on toward that dini speck against the darkening sky which she kuew was .mighty Mauua Loa. That must be her landmark un til she came near enough to the shore : to see the lower land. No mutter w hat point she reached, only the solid land, no matter whether near or far from her starting point Night fell; but, watching the stars, - she kept her face turned toward the place where, miles away,' lay the longed-for land. Kalamaiiu, while day lasted, was able to hold his head altove the waves, but soon after nightfall he became too weak to do even this. Finding that he was failing he told his brave daughter to leave him and strive to save her own iife. She refused; both or neither should reach the laud. Together they would meet their fate, good or 'evil. . When he became too -weak even to ; keep his face above water .she tore a' strip from her siugle garment and tied.' it so as to keep his head on her shoul-". ders. On avnd oil site toiled. , Night passed, morning came and found her, with aching arms and shoulders, still swimming, slower now, toward the distant shore. Up came the sun, aud the tortures of heat were added to her sufferings. Her arms, face and shoulders were blistered by the scorching rays until the touch of the salt water was agony. Still she pressed on. Noon came, nearly twenty-four hours since she began that long fight against death. An hour passed and still no succor. No sign of a steamer or other vessel, aud the distant mountain seemed as far off as ever. For the first time the heroic girl began to despair. She felt that she was growing weaker. Noth ing had passed her lips since the morn ing before, when they had left port. She was growing faint, aud wondered if she had not best give up the battle; but not yet, and again she pressed 011. Her father had not moved for some time, and she did not know if he still lived, but dead or alive, if she reached the shore she would bring him w ith her. The steamer Like-Like left lort on that morning two or three hours later than usual, owing to delay caused by. the gale the day previous. -' Straight . but- into the channel she steamed.-.. About three o'clock in the afternoon the man on watch called to the officer of the deck that he saw some strange object a little ahead of the steamer. Asked what it looked like, he said he thought it some strange animal, but that it was surely alive, as he saw it move from time to time. All hands watched for a glimpse of the object which hail been reported, and iu half an hour they were near enough to see it from the deck and to ' recognize it as a living leing. A boat was quickly lowered and rowed rapid ly to the side of the object- They found a native girl w ith an apparently dead man tied fast to her body swimming feebly away from them. With a stroke of the oars they overtook her and grasped her to raise her into the boaL She did not seem to know that any one was near her and still strove weakly to swim away from them, but strong hands lifted her up and laid her down in the bottom of the boat.. At first they thought the man was dea I, - but - when they reached the steamer's ' deck he was still" faintly breathing, and in. the Lands of a skill- ' ful physician he' was brought to his senses. Hut more interest was felt in the poor girl than in him. When she had left Laupahoehoe the morning liefore she was a lieautiful girl. When lifted to the steamer's deck she was burned and blistered, face, neck and arms un til the raw flesh looked like nothing human. Her hair was filled with salt crystals and matted and knotted so that before they could do much for her they were obliged to cut it 01T. ' Hut she was alive, and more than that, she hail saved her father's life also. When the steamer reached Honolulu lioth were in a way to recovery. Kalili was the heroine of the day. From the place where the schooner sank to w here the steamer picked the castaways up was twenty miles in a .direct line. Of course the girl had not kept a direct line, and had covered much more distance than that. When Kalili recovered her strength her father was able to be up, and in a few weeks both were as strong as if they lunl not passed through that ter rible battle with the wares. Kalili still lives, but she has never leen on the sea since that disastrous voyage. She has lost her nerve, and now dreads the water worse than a person who never learned to swim. Hut she is still poiutcd out to strangers as the girl who swam twenty miles and carried her insensible father the greater part of the distance. San Francisco Call. The Workmen Were Irish.

A PKOSELYTE. A Well-Taught Lesson He Never Expected to Leaxn. Mr. Aubrey Everdcne looked out upon Sackville street and yawned. Only an instant liefore he had written "fiuis" to an article with a .dash of the pen across the last sheet, and now thv MS. lay ready for the post am..:ig the debris of printer's proofs, r.ew novels awaiting review, etc. with which the writing table was strewn. ' r One of the liest-know u literateurs in London, and a brill ant conversation alist. his tongue could le as scathing us his-pen, and it was said of him. w ith ; regard to the,-latter weapon of war t fare, that in half a dozen polished sen-, tences he could do more towards tiainn- - 'ing a bvk than any two-of his cnni- ; peers. . A-big. loosely-made man,' Mr. Kverdene, with shrewd gray eyes' and .the pessimism of a modern. Studying his face as he lounged by the window, his hands in the pockets of bis smok ing jacket, one could see that he had a lively sense of humor combined with his other characteristics and under stood the interest his personality aroused. Presently a servant brought him a visiting card on a salver. "The lady would le obliged if you would grant her an interview, sir." "Lady Hilyard." muttered Everdcne, reading the inscription. "1 can't re call the name. Hother the woman, what does she want?" However ask her to come up, Hlake." When she entered, a fair, elegant woman of perhaps five-and-twenty, in an irrcpro.u-hable l'arision toilet, he was still more convinced that he. had not the privilege of her acquaintance. "Mr. Aubrey Everdcne?" she que-, ried. Mr. Everdcne bowed. ' "IVay take a seat, madam." "No." she saiiL "I have come to. quarrel with yoii. and I don't sit down in the houses of my enemies;" "To quarrel with me:" His eye . brows went up. The thought came to him that his visitor was not in her ' right minci. ' - "Yes. ; Perhaps I had belter explain myself at once. I am the. author of Fashion and Footlights:'". - ( Mr. Everdcne, standing perforce be- cause she would, pulled his mustache, while the fair stranger tapped her No. 3 shoe on the carpet tvith impatience, and looked pitchforks and daggers. 'Fashion aud Footlights,' " he re flected aloud. " 'Fashion and Foot lights. Ha'" , Comprehension stole over his face, and with it a slight amusement. He fished among a pile of volumes and brought out three lxund with an ele gance destined to win the hearts of suburban circulating libraries; 'Here it is. I reviewed it in the Centurion, didn't I?" "No." she said, "you hanged and quartered it!" "I am sorry! May I ask how you found out that I was the culprit'."' "Oh, by accident. It's a long story, and unimportant, since you don't de ny the imputation. Now, Mr. Ever dcne, I know it-is very impertinent-of nic.a stranger, to come to your pri 'vatc address ami worry you. . I am di ing a very unusual thing, ! am afraid, and Mrs. Grundy would lie horrified. Hut .'fools rush in, you knonv and widows are privileged! You must have a little jtatienee- with me, In-cause " for the first time her lips relaxed, and she smiled a smile that was sweetness itself "well, just because I'm a wom an and you're a gentleman! Acknow ledge the truth, now, on your honor. IXm't you think you wer.- unnecessa rily harsh to my poor little liu-rary effort?" "No," he said, bluntly. "I always give my true opinion of things, and 1 consider your look had many faults." If she had Iteen a man he woul.l have said: "I thought it was excessively bad," w ith tlic bruujuetiess of convic tion, and probably dcelineil to drscu.ss the matter. Hut to a la ly it was im possible to be rude. He regarded her absurdly unconventional presence with a tolerant kindliness. 'Of course, I admit that there arc faults, but upon one or two points in your criticism. I cannot arret- with you. I should very much like to dis cuss them with you. May I?" "Certainly." His mouth was twitch ing under his heavy mustache. "Hut don't you think, pending the verdict, that you had lietter sit down? You will lie fatigued. If you'll permit me to wheel this armchair nearer the lire for you so!" Having carefully arranged it so that she should face the light, he seated himself opposite to her the A. H. C. of diplomacy, but she did not appear to notice it- She was draw ing aralt-squvs on the carpet with the oint of Iwr ivory-handled umbrella. "I should very much like to know," she said, "what you think of me for owning here!" "I think you are plucky yes, and recklessly unconventional." 'Candid, at any rate! And I like that-" She looked up. "Now for the first indictment on the list, Mr. Ever dcne! You accuse me of improbabil ity. I deny it," His manner lorilered upon prc-occu-pation. In truth he was thinking what wonderful lashes she had, and how liecoming a flush of excitement could le to a clear, pale skin. "You assert," she contiuned warm ly, "that it is ridiculous to suppose that a man and woman of the world Advertisinr liute.

It was harsh, monstrous. - No doubt I was in a bad temper, and your unfortunate book was the first thing that afforded me an opportunity to vent my spleen." Lady llil.vard applied six square inches of cambric aud lace to the cor ner of an eyelid. "If you'll only believe me, my dear Lady Hilyard. when I tell you that I'm sorrier than I can say." "Then you acknowledge that you were needlessly cruel?"' "I was brutal." He would have com mitted blacker perjury as she wiped that tear away. "And that I had just cause for in dignation?" "You were perfectly right." A smile broke like April sunshine over her face. "In that case I suppose I must for give you." He was ridiculously grateful. lie heaved a sigh of relief and hesitaU-d with his hand on the button 'of the electric Ih-11. "Lady Hilyard. you know the Arab custom of taking salt with one's friends?

When the refresh ment came, accompanied by wonder ful sweetmeats from Hond strcvt round the corner, she asked iiermissioii to pour it out for him, with a winning graciousness which charmed him. It aiforded him an odd sense of pleasure, too, to see her white fingers moving almut the china, lie was unaccustomed to the presence of women in liis home. With the Japanese table between them they chatted for awhile, and then the clock on the mantelpiece struck six. She rtise with a pretty gesture of dismay, like a second Cinderella. "Do you know.

"Very pretty !" she said, blushing faintly. "And. in return for it. let me tell you that my address is on my card and that my "day" is Thursday.

The most delicious softness was in her voice: "It makes me so proud and happy to think I have convinced you." There was a silence. She smootned a wrinkle in her suede glove- He twisted a button on his coat- Then she aroused herself with a little laugh and extended her hand. "Well, good-by, Mr. Everdene, and, once more, thank you." He pressed her fingers ever SO lightly her prose lyte- "Not good-by,'" he murmured. "Au rcvoir." Hlack and White.
