    HOW HK POIID HIS.
Jasper Garfield wax junior partner and
*icvotcl Uvof the great funutcv oompatiT.
Margaret Hope aatd of him no girl
ouid please Jasper Garfield; ahe never
saw lucha man. llerv he was, a gentle
man b_v birth and education, ami ho would
not marry, would not build on the property
he owned, and waa considered very jwnuri
°k-*" n <*d®d a wife to teach him j
tilings, IVrhaps he mourned over a dead j
love, or Karl been jilted by some woman who i
preferred another.
Margaret Hope felt that alio had been
alighted in the most wounding manner by '
Jasjier Garfield. who had grown to be a
hero in her eyes. She lived in an obi 1
bonne, into which even her youthful pres
ence could infttae no life, for time had act
it seal of decay on the atrueture. The
property was valuable, at least in the < \ v
of her cousin, Jack Krwkine, and when aum
nicr draped vines ami flower* a Unit the old
homo it might well atttact oilier admira
tion
Cousin Jack waa g\whlooking, stout, ami
broad-shouldered, with aomewhat heavy
features. His manner waa genial ami
hearty, but hia eye wa* cold ami keen, j
Altogether he was a man to 1* associated in
onemind with a good supper and thor- ;
oughbrvd horwes, ami also with a clow
bargain.
''How pretty you look this morning
was the salutation, as he drew off a driving |
glove and w armed hia hand at the fire.
Margaret, glancing down, contrasted him
witii a certain other man alio kth-w, who
was tall, slender. with calm, serious blue
eves, and an oval face, ami retewted, gay lv:
" What a fine hoaxc vou are building.
J .ick !'
" The site is not as good aa this one,
ruefully,
" Sure lv you do not grudge me this man
sion, all tiuffy and moldy with the dust oi
my ancestors ?"
Mr. Jack Krskine gated at the tire with- j
out direct reply.
" My new house needs a mistress Mar
garet."
" iVar me I You w ill have no difficulty
in finding one, ! dare say, Mr. Jack."
He frowned slight!*, au.l when he
frowned the features of Mr. Krskine became
surly, even brutal.
" Snail I sell the hay for you this year
" It you will," she said, carelea&lj^
" I can put it in with mine ; a woman is
apt te gel cheated as a farmer."
Aunt roily Ho)*? stood at the window
knitting She was a brisk old lady, with a
brown wig under her cap. a face as full of
wrinkles as the homestead was of crack
and fissures, and bright twinkling eyrw.
Her fingers were invariably knitting, and
ahe was usually peering from some window
down upon the village which was her
erlJ.
" I don't s'pow you are as blind as you
pretend to be. child, about Jack's liking
lor ye," she aid, looking after Cou-in Jack
a* he strode down the box-bordered path
* If Jane Tompkins ain't look to the mad '
again, I declare Don't see when she d.>e
her own work, what with gadding about
The wh >!e family will come across the
town yet, it's likely. Lor! Margaret, a
stranger man is coming in the gate !"
Jasper Garfield, pale, jaded, nervous, j
with the perplexed aspect of ooe no long, r
understanding himwlf, took both of Mar
garet's hand-. and looked at her with lover's
eyes.
Oh, dim old parlor, merging into Novem
ber's sombre brown Landscape without, what
power has the fallen leaf, the fading past,
to chill the hope horn of so recent despair ? j
The transition w a- almost unreal in it- de.i
cious happinesa A week ago Margaret
had turned away from the unattainable in
sharp grief of disappointment. Now Jar
f*r Garfield had come to tell her that he
oved tier.
Aunt Polly saw through her critical
spectacles only a very ordinary specimen of
mankind, not quite as good-looking as Jack,
perhaps. Margaret's heart and soul went
out to hiui in joyful recognition of her
ideal..her hero.
" It takes all sorts to make up a world,"
reflected Aunt Polly, going away to see
what there was for dinner. " I never sus
picioneil that our Maggie would fancy a
man with such a long nose and hair a'niost
gr*?"
In the parlor the moments flew on wings;
there was so much to be told in low wki*-
per, reproaches, explanations, and recon
ciliations, Jasper Garfield's lips staying the
eloquence of other roar lips, or seeking a
lock of silky hair, a dimple in the softly
rounded cheek. How Margaret bloomed
that day ! Happiness in the true balm of
beauty, as it is the very elixir of life.
Or.ee he held her at arms-length in the
old morose humor.
" Are you made of the same stuff as
other women. I wonder *"
"Test me," said Margaret, proudly.
Then a shadow stole upon them—a beau
tiful woman stood in the doorway with two
little children, clinging to her dm*.
*• Dolores!" gasped ' asj>er, rising to his
feet like one stunned.
The beautiiul woman advanced a step
into the room.
• •••••*
Margaret sat in her chamber, pale with
fear and dread. She had slipped away, and
left Jasper with the stranger, feeling her
presence an intrusion. What did it all
mean? Could he not come to declare his
love without being tracked by another
woman ? What claim had the other on
him ? Would she take him away from
her? The girl'# heart sickened with jeal
ousy and disgust Her bright hour had
clouded very soon indeed.
A little girl danced into the room, took
her hand ?arhwl v. and said ;
" You must come."
It was impo—ihle to resist the roguish
grace of the emiary; laughter lurked in
every curve of the round baby face, from
which gleamed two large dark eyes like
star-, while the tiny form swayed with each
varying impulse of the capricious owner.
In the parlor the stranger stood with
clasped hands ami a look of triumph. Jas
per Garfield's head wa* bowed, and bis
aspect humble, ashamed, almost sullen.
" Let me explain everything," began tin
stranger. rapidly. " I am Andrew Garfield's j
wife, and Jasper is my brother. My hus
band was to make fine more voyage in com- !
mand of the ship Adelaide; he sailed four
year* ago, ami the night before he left an i
angel appeared to me in my sleep."
There was a break in the sweet voice,
with itssliglit foreign accent; she hid her J
face in her hands. Margaret neither
moved nor spoke; she felt herself enchanted
by a painful dream.
The angel stood beside me on the shore
and pointed to she east, where the storm
came on, ami I saw a wall of darkness
-wallow up the ship Adelaide. I went to
the chapel of Our Lady at dawn to pray,
and then I was shown that Jasper must take
his oath to find his brother if he did not re
turn in four years."
"I know he did not do it!" cried Mar
garet, the spell dissolving in real pain as the
truth flashed upon her.
"An honorable man never breaks bis
word," said Dolores, haughtily.
" Oh. you would sacrifice us to your fancy
—the vision of a night! Jasper shall never
go!" Margaret scarcely knew herself as
the force of a new-born passion swept her
along; she clung desperately to this one
spar, Jaxper Garfield, and he waa to lie stolen
from her.
The mother quickly thrust the two chil
dren between the lov-ra, ami won the day.
Margaret caught the little I Mores in her
arms, and hurst into tears.
" Forgive me for entailing suffering on
you," said Jasper, tenderly, " I had no right
to love you with this responsibility resting
upon me. Now you know why my life has
been made one of dreadful susjiense ; and as
the limit of time drew on since I've known
you, I have searched ship recorils and
watched for letter# until 1 nearly went
mad."
"Where was the ship lost?" whispered
Margaret.
"Cleared from Ilcng Kong, and never
heard from." Jloleres spoke with rigid
despair, and tearless eyes fixed on space.
" You must forget me," said Jasper,
laying his hand on Margaret's head. "I
may be absent a very long while, and must
not fetter your youth."
" Trust me as I trust you," returned the
girl, bravely. "If Mrs. Garfield and the
children will remain with me, we can watch
together."
Lost almost as soon as found, Jasper
Garfield went out into the early twilight,
and the shadows gathered cold and gray
about the old homestead.
****•
The ship rocked on a sea of treacherous
calm. A profound, awful stillness pervaded
all nature, as if the elements paused with
bated breath for the signal to unloose a
tempest. The vessel swayed uneasilv, the
corn age creaked, the sailors awaited with
strained eye and ear the first notes of the
battle in which they must conquer or lie
forever lost. the northern horizon the
sky was still blue; to the south a mass of
lurid vapor rose steadily, rapidly, and ob
scured the zenith.

a Chine-e eai-tnet in he~ chamber. If lb.
old bill on his place could he dewtrorcd thv
game was in his own hands. Later in tin
day Margaret went to the village jo®i-f!i.x
A jiesliller came to tlie door, and wa
*ent away by Aunt Polly. Shrill, childish
-creams ensued ; Mr*. Garfield rushes! U

closed her eves, and screamed vigorously.
" For Heaven* sake be quiet. Aunt

The old ladv opened her eyes ar-1 closed
her mouth. The man was Jack Krskine.
somewhat confused in manner.
"I am searching for a najw-r. IVin't set
the dogs on me. There. 1 will go awav."
- What right have you to search other
people's premises ?" demanded Aunt Polly.
" I wished to make Margaret marry me
by finding nn old account. lN>n't tell of me
auntie. 1 love her. and ' all'# fair in love
and war,' you know."
" Have you lound the pajwr?"
" t hi my word, no."
" Very well, go. Whan you was a baby,
Jack Krskine, 1 laid you on the hearth to
keep the life in ve, and 1 wish 1 hadn't.
There!"
Ilolores, flu-hed and panting, came up
the walk clasping her recovered treasure,
and the peddler shrank away with a sting
ing blow on lii# face to tell his patron, Mr.
Krskine, that the money scarcely paid for
the job.
" She might have killed me," grumbled
the jwddlcr.
" Very well, keep quiet, my man. or you
may get arrested for attempted child-steal
ing."
Margaret walked slowly along the lane.
Thsre were no letter* in the mail. ' A man
in advante of her turned at her approach.
Margaret's heart gave a great bound. No,
it was not Jasper Garfield.
"Can TOU tell me where Mis# Hope
lives."
"1 am Misa Hope," she answered, with
whitening lij>*.
" Then I am Andrew Garfield, and my
wife i§ here."
Thus wa# Andre-w Garfield restored to his
own.
Aunt Polly believed in celebrating
Christmas day.
" Jest as if there wasn't alway* mercies
enough in the year if we choose to search
'em out!" she said.
The feast was ready for weary Andrew
Garfield, radiant Ivdores, and the merry
children, hut Margaret could not endure the
contemplation of their happiness jut vet.
A stifled cry of mourning went up from her
own heart that to attain thia end she had
lost all. Where was Jasper? The feast
was ready, but she could not share it; she
even went out into the crisp, frosty twilight
to escape. Was it an echo, born of her vain
longings, that ejK.kc through the evening ?
IVas it a gl.ost who advanced and folded
her in a long embrace? Jov does not kill,
Margaret beheld again with mortal eye*
her lover.
" I have not found hiiu," sighed Jasper
as she led him in.
The two men gazed at each other incredu
lously.
" You promised to search for me," said
Andrew.
" I have searched over tlic world," re
plied Jasper.
" The Adelaide wa* bait in a typhoon,
and a Danish bark rescued me," said An
drew.
" I wa* wreekedin a typhoon, and picked
up bv a native canoe," s tid Jasper.
" I was carried to Sierra f>eone, and
nearly died of the fever," said Andrew,
" I touched twice at Cape Paltnaa, and
concluded you hail perislo ' with the
Adelaide," rejoined Jasper. " ! "olores, are
you satisfied ?"
What a banquet there was, after all!
The ivy still hung about the old portraits
as Margaret had placed it on the morning
when Jasjwr Garfield declared his love, and
Marg aret amazed the children by appearing
at table in topaz ornaments.
The Tweed Cose.
The appeal in the case of William M.
Tweed, of New Yjrk, of whioh notice
waa given at the time of trial and sen
tence, appears to have been deferred
until the first year of his long term of
ptiniahmeDt. It ia now understood
that hia counsel will seek to have the
case reviewed on the ground that the
indictment on which ho was oonvicted
charged a single misdemeanor, al
though it embraced 220 different
counts. It is a very nice point of law
•n which it i'j claimed that the judge
who sentenced Tweed for fifty-one mis
demeanors had previously ruled, that
he ocmld be punished for only one.

Fight Year*' Litlrntion for ijti.oO,
The case of Hotchkiss gt. Hoev,
which has been in the c art for nearly
eight years, s .va a New Haven, Conn.,
paper, has reached the Supreme Court
The smallii' sa *of the sum involved
—57.50 —and the principle embodied
in the suit make its appearance in the
highef-t oonrt of the State a subject of
considerable comment. On Jan. 20,
1807, on the public highway leading
from Cheshire to Waterbury, the jlain
tiff was driving a sleigh containing a
pleasure party and drawu by six horses,
when the defendant apjveared before
him with a one-horse slugh—compara
tively no team at all—and pt misted in
walking hiR horse. The plaintiff de
sired the defendant to tnru out so thut
his pleasure party might pass, but he
was iniplocable. For two loDg, drenry
mi.es, the plaintiff alleges, the one
horse sleigh was "unnecessarily,
wrongfully, and unlawful v • • • *
in a slow walk immediately forward t-f
the plaintiff a team." It was not until
George Hiue's house was reached that
the defendant allowed the plaintiff to
pas*. The feelings of the plaintiff nt
the time can be imagined, but it is
difficult to conceive of n deliberate
journey to n lawyer's office, au.l an
overhauling of the statute bowk*. "An
act oonceming the driving of carriages
and the management of steamboats"
was found. The penalty for the viola
tion of the statute is $7.50, half to the
town iu whioh the violation is douennd
half to the informer. A suit was nt
once brought before a Jtt tice, ami Mr.
Ilotehkisn got hia sll 75—that i*. he got
a judgment for that amount. The case
was then tuken to the Superior Court,
on appeal, and thence to the Supreme
Court by the plaintiff, because the de
fendant's demurrer that the declara
tion was insufficient WAS sustained.
Eight years of litigation for $7.50 ha*
oost somebody something for counsel
fees, and will cost somebody more lie
fore the cliaisx is reached.

contracts to " shoe and hoot" paopio
at a stated animal price, which ranges
from 815 to s3.j, according to the size
of the loot, the size of the man, and his
gait. A high stepper gets shod at a
less annnal rate ; an ov.rreacher costs
more; a shnfller o mtr Mill liigher. At
the end of the vear the customer comes
in and brings his old boots und shoes
that have done service for the year. If
there is a month's wear still in his boot
leather, the Bhoernaker credits him ac
cordingly on the next year. This is
something new in theshoemaking busi
ness.
His FAITH. —Gen. Sherman says that
there need be no dispute about his re
ligions faith ; for it can be given in a
few words. Siys he : "I believe that
if people only act half as well as they
know how, God will forgirs the baf
a see."

on iteeouut of mistake made by a
messenger boy. The lad was employed
by a tailor to whom had been intrusted
the making of suits of clothes for both
priest and bridegroom, and being sent j
to curry the garments home he obanoed
to deliver each bundle at the wrong
house. The chagrin of the priest on !

bridegroom at discovering in bis pack *
age au outfit of clothing of the most
j sharply defined clerical pattern, oau be
better imagined than described.
