“AT HOME."
A STORY OF NEW YEAR'S DAY.
Pinto the library—do, father—

; Be iI downtown was
4 respected as a rich, successful
chant, much feared as an over
Arewd tinancier ; uptown, in his own
~house, he was just “father” Mrs
Bell, a comely, stout, blonde matron,
had let her whois soul overflow on the
little bald head of her first baby. Sue-
eessive babies brought more outpour-
ing of inexhaustible affection and in-
dulgence, She was content as a brood-
ing dove to be only “mother,” and
that Mr. Bell could ask greater glory
or honor than to be “father” w hy, the
idea was absurd. So absurd that it
never came into his mind. On tiptoe
he obeyed his wife's injunction and
looked In at the library door.
“ What are they doing * ** he asked, in
a whisper.
“ Directing envelopes for the New
Year's cards—the invitations to eall,
you know.”
They were certainly pretty, those
three girls, with their slender forms
thrown into graceful, unrestrained at-
titudes, as they sat about the library
table eagerly talking and busily writ-
ing. They were respectively nineteen,
eighteen and sixteen years old ; and
called respectively Jo or Josie for Jo-
sephine, Sissy for Cecilia, and Tiny for
Christina. These were their home pet
names, to be sure, but following a cus-
tom that obtains nowadays, they chose
to be known by these diminutives out-
side in the fashionable world. The
great society paper described them as
“three Graces shading in styles of
beauty from Miss Josie's brunette bril-
Haney, through Miss Sissy's brown-
haired, Mue-eved bewilderment, to Miss
Tiny's moonlight blondeness” The
description was considered acurate as
well as extremly poetical, and Mrs.
Bell had asked the reporter to lunch.
Josie read off mounes from a list, the
other two sisters wrote, and a fourth
—=& mite called Poppet-—npeatly piled
up env elop es,
“Let's said Josie—*“the A's,
B's, C's—all done down to the M's.

Sissy, who was biting her pen-handle
in deep reflection, and “had turned up
her blue eyes to the ceiling until she
looked like the saint whose name she
bore, interrupted just here with,
“Jo, didn’t we meet a Montgomery
somewhere 7”
“Montgomery? No. Yes; there
was Soinedods of that name, it seems
to me, at Saratoga:®

the table, “somebody,
who, brought him up to us one day on
the piazza, and said he was an agree
able man who lounged about the
office and seemed to have no friends”
“Oh, ye—s," said Josie, with uncer-
tainty ; “and I think hespoke of being
at the Windsor, in New York. Direct
him an env elope, Sissy,”
“But, Josie, asked Tiny,
know him?”
“Nonsense, child ;
exact at New Year's. And we must
have a lot of calls. Three girls of us!
why, less than two or three hundred
calls would be a disgrace”
“Of course)” raid Sissy, with a
sense of the gravest responsibility; “and
to secure that number we must send
out at least twice as many invitations.
There, ‘Mr. Montgomery, Windsor
Hotel” It may not find him, but
there's a char hes, and every one counts.”
She threw the directed enve lope among
the others that were ready to be
stamped and ma dl.
“Well, my pets,” Mr, Bell asked, as
he came in and looked down at the
pretty group in fond pride, * where are
all these cards 10 be sent ?
“Oh, papa,” exclained
just run away—we're so Lusy.”
“ Now, papa "—and Sissy jumped up
and kissed him—dobea as
there's a dear.”
* Yes, and don't disturb us,” added
Miss Tiny, clapping her hand over a
pile of cnvelopes to protect them from |
gerutiny.
Mr. Bell looked amused, patted their |
heads all ; Joke and observed, in a
mildly Bor lative way, a3 he saw about
one-quarter of the number to be sent,
“It seems to me there are a great
many.”
“It's ail right, papa; we know the |

was to be published in England. “ The
Deluge” was one of the to be
described as a specialty, and it was as-
i signed to an eminent scientific man,
{ He treated the theme with all the tree-
{dom of modern science, and the revis-
i ers found his article so far out of the
orthodox range of opinion that they
feared to use it. Announcement was
therefore made that a rigon of

heading * Noah,” to be issued later
jon, The subject was then assigned to
Lanother writer. But he, too, was

marks on Noah and the deluge

| nouncement was made that the long

heading, and measures were taken
that the subjeet should be treated

the tariff were concerned. In no ease were
witnesses solicited, with the exception of offi
cials in some eities, and the commission ex
presses ita purpose to make the report a com-
plete photograph of public sentiment upon
the subject of tariff revision. :
The commission declares that high daties
have a tendeney to create prejudice, to en
courage unsafe investments of capital, to
cause a plethora of certain commodities;
that the time has come when a reduction
from high war rates can safely be made,
and that the increase in the
the older industries is sufficient to admit of
reduction without impairment of ability to
compete. The reductions on the average
and as a whole approximate twenty per
cent., and will perhaps reach twenty-five per
cent.
It bas been the effort of the commission to
make the reduction apply to commodities of
general consumption and to diminish or
withhold the reductionasupon commodities of
high cost requiring more labor, and which
being consumed principally by the more
wealthy classes could bear higher duties, at the
game time supplying revenue and encourag
ing the higher arts without being oppressive
in their operation. It has been sought
invariably to make a discrimination in the

The New York froening Telegram
guys Tony Pastor was cured of rheu-
matic pains by St, Jacobs Oil. He
praises its eflicacy.
To be beautiful we must cherish
every Kind impulse and generous dis-
position, making love the ruling affec-
tion of the heart and the ordering
prineiple and inspiring motive of life,
The more Kindness, the more beauty ;
the more love, the more loveliness,
And this is the beauty that lasts,
Mere physical good looks fade with
years, bleach ont with sickness, yield
to the slow decay and wasting breath
of mortality. But the beauty that has
its seat and source in Kind disposition,
noble purposes, great thoughts, out-
lasts youth and maturity, increases
with age, and, like the luscious peach,
colored with the delicate blush of pur-
ple and gold which comes with autumn
ripeness, is never so beautiful as when
waiting to be plucked by the gatherers
hand.
