HIS OWNJAUGHTER. 'Dear mother, it Is Iho best thing after nil lhat could have happened; it is to muoh better than anything I dared to hope for. llecnuse, if I had not fallen and sprained my nnklo, I would not have lost my plaeo in tho store, and if it had not been for losing my plaoo there I would never have gone all over the city hunting another situation, and if I had not been in so many places, and if starv ation hadn't stared us in the face, I would never have done so deperate a thing, and wo would still bo trying to keep body and soul together on tho poorly-paid, health-destroying labor a poor sales woman's wages." "Tell me all about it, dear," said Sirs Smith, dropping her thiu, tired hands on the work over which she had bent wearily nil day. "First let m put this endless sowing' nwny, mother. These poor, dear hands may re&t a little now, for I ntu going to get S10 a week, and will ouly.be away from you four or five hours each day. I shall have time for ever so much sewiug besides, nnd you cau just rest aild gnu strong oueo more. I nceived my lirst wook's wagts in advance. Seo here" nud sho cut the cord that bound a largo bundle, and out 011 the table rolled sev eral smaller parcels, "I brought the money hoinn in n shape we could appre ciate best ; at least all there was left after paying Ihe baker. Now, mother dear, I am going to bo extravagant nnd make nu exlr.t good cup of tea." "Hut Nellie, my child, you have not told mo " "I know, mother," broke in tho blithe voice, "but you see, I hnven't forgotten that it is nearly noon, and we have had nn breakfast yet There now " giving tho fire a vigorous poke that not the tea to steeping, "you see, mother, I was just discouraged. I had been to every store, millinery and dress miking establishment that I know of, and reoeived the same answer : -No more help needed, to all my inquiries, and, ns I said, I was desperate. Just as I turned the corner of Meeker street I saw a man being helped out of his carriage; such n splen did carriage, mother. Ho was not a very old man, but looked rb though bo was almost gone with consumption. I went straight np to him, hardly realizing whut I was doing, and asked him if be knew where I conld got employment of some kiud. At first he looked nngry, as though he thought my impudence un bearable, but when he saw my face he stood still nud looked at me as though ho had seen n ghost. After a moment be said,. " Yes, I will engage you to como to my house every day at 10 o'clock and read or write for me, as I desire, until 3. I will pay you $10 a week for your services. ' "Thtn he handed me his card, on which I read, 'Hon. O. Hewitt, No. 42 Leonard street,' and I remembered that one of tho girls had once pointed out his beautiful residence to me. " 'If the situation and terms nre satis factory, you will please accept one week's wages in advance, nnd come to-morrow at 10 o'clock.'" "And he held the money which I wai only too glad to take," "Were you not a little hasty, daugh ter?" asked the mother, anxiously. "Von know nothing of this man," "I know this, mother, that we are starving, and that money was our only salvation ; besides, it all occurred so quickly thaUI hardly realized what had happened. Somehow it seemed as though some over-ruling providence was guiding me in spite of myself." "God grant that it may be bo," said her mother. And now, while Nellie and her mother aro enjoying their dinner,' let us casta haty look into Mrs. Smith's past life. Her parents having died when she was young, her childhood and girlhood were passed in the dreary monotony of her aunt's house a home which was grudg ingly offered her, where food, clothing and education were dealt out to her, but where never a word or look of love was bestowed upon her. What wonder that, when Claude Smith, one of her aunt's summer boarders, be came interested in the girl's pretty and shy sweet face, oud told her the old, old story, her yearning heort responded with n passionate love ? Her aunt, being only too glad to have the girl's support fall on other shoulders, consented to the union. and one evening there was a quiet wed- aing at the little cottage. Then followed week of happiness for tho girl whoso lifo had been so lonley.un til ono evening her husband oomo to her with n troubled look and told her that his only relativo, nn uncle in England. was very sick ncii had sent for him to come immediately, and, taking his young wifo in his arms ho soothed her with fond words, saying: "I daro not tako you with mo, darling. Uncle Georgo was very angry when my mother married an American with such n plcbian name. Of nil low names, Smith he claims stands nt the very bot tom. Uncle George never forgave my mother; but when both my parents died, leaving mo alone, ho appointed a guard ian for me kept well supplied with funds, and now that he is dying I must go to him; but I will return as soon ns possiblo to my little wifo." And bo ho left her, with plenty- of money but with nn aching heart, and she had never seen him since. Troubles had seemed to multiply after that. A contagions disease broke out in thoir town, and carried off whole fami lies. Her aunt fell n victim, but sho es caped nnd enmo to tho city, hoping to find employment by which to support bersolf. Sho had n smsll sum of money loft, with which sho purchased n llltlo cottage, nnd hero Nollio was born. The roses bloomed once moro on Nel lie's cheeks, and her step grew light as' the weeks ndvancd. Sho liked her em ployment, nnd, nbove nil, she liked her employer. Jinny substantial evidences of his kindness had found their way to the littlo cottage, and many nn extra .dol lar had found its way to Nellie's pocket. As his face grew thinner nnd his. step slower, he seemed to turn to tho young girl for sympathy, nnd tho sound of her sweet voice, nnd the touch of her cool hand, had power to sooth him to rest when all else had failed. He often watched her as she moved nbout the room, in her bright, cheerful way, with a strange, wistful look in his fading eyes. One morning, as she took her seat by his couch, he laid his thin, transparent hand on her own, saying ai he did so. "I feel that I have but a few more hours of lifo and I wish to talk to yon." and he smiled almost sadly as he met her startled glance. "Yes," he continued slowly, "I shall soon be gone, and there will be no ono to truly mourn for me, unless it be tho little girl- I have taken such an liuac' ronntnble interest in. You will miss me, Nellie !" For answer sho bowed her htad over her clapnl hands and wept. He waited a few moments, then tnk'np ono littlo palm in bis hands nnd caress ing it tenderly, said : "No doubt yon have often-worrdcrcd' that I, n perfect stranger, should haven given you employment without question or reference. I can hardly tell why I did so, myself'. Perhaps it was a look on thnt pitiful young fuco so like n dear face I used to love. I have carried tho mem ory of that faco nil through lifo. I had only been married a few weeks when I was summoned to England, and when I returned I found the house where I had left my den: one deserted, and was told that she was dead. . "Sly uncle, nt his death, left mo his property, providing that I would take his name, but. oh 1 it has been n long, sad lifo without my darling. "I have taken n strange interest in you, and my heart seems to cling to you in my last hours, I have liken care of your future, dear, and there is neither wifo nor child, brother or sister to ques tion the right of tho will I have made in your behalf. Somehow, since I have carriod out my intentions respecting you I feel so peaceful; as though there is nothing left undone, nud I am ready to go." He was interrupted by n fit of cough ing which lasted so long that Nellie was frightened. After she had laid him back on his pillow she saw his lips move, but tho words wero so low that she had to bend over him to hear them. "When I am gone, Nellie, open this littlo ebony casket. Inside you will find my wifo's picture. You may look at it, but I waut it buried with mo." Ho lay back on his pillow and closed his eyes wearily. A strauge calm stole o'er his features and an icy chill crept into tho hands clasping hers n chill that sent n thrill of terror to her heart. She bent over him nnd spoke bis name, oh ! so tenderly but he heard not tho young voice. He had passed forever beyond its reach. The next day, ns ho lay in his coffin, Nellie opened tho little casket and took out the picture he had treasured. Going to tho window, she opened tho caso, looked upon the sweet, girlish face smil ing up nt her. Ono moment, then" n quick, gasping cry escaped her lips, and she fell into the arms of nn attendant. The face of her dead friend's- lost wife was the face of her mother. Aiikivcr Tlila.
