UNCLETITUS.
Titus of Nnrbouue, tho founder of the
bouse of Titus & Uoinauecbo, was an
old man a millionaire and without
children! Uncle Tilus was content to
lavish nil the paternal nffection be pos
sessed on tho two eons of his sister,
twins, who were entirely unaliUo iu
character, but were nevertheless both
worthy of bla love.
Jeau was Industrious and I'anl volatile,
Both studied law iu Paris. They gra iu
ated on the same day. Paul with more
eclat than Jenn, because, although he
kuew lets, he was n better talker. When
tho news reached their borne, Uncle
Titus, in his delight, throw his bat on
tho table nnd exclaimod'
"Ten thousand francs! I am going to
givo them 10,000 francs with wbio'i to
amuse themselves aud see, Coustaut.no-
pie."
Aud eight clays later he counted cnt
that sum to his two ncpheus as ho bade
them good-by.
'Would it amuse you to go to Con
stau'inoplc?'' said Paul to his brjther,
"I would much prefer to pass my mouth'
holidiy in l'ari?, where I could liud au
agreeable companion who would hclptue
spend my 5,000 francs which Uncle Titus
gave me."
But how could you write Uncle
Titus au account of your travels?"
'Easily enough, In ray letters to yon
I would iuclobe letters tUted from Con
slantinople, nnd jou could post them.''
Jeau consented to Paul's proposition,
The former conscientiously started on
bis travels, while tho other secretly
boarded a train for Paris. On reaching
the Uosphorus Jeun commenced to study
so assiduously that he l ardly had time
to scud a few words each wetk to Uncle
TUum. Paul, on tbe other hand, pur
chased Theopbile Gautier's immortal
book of Constantinople, and took there
from, at the rate of ten pages at a time,
material for tho letters, full of color,
which he sent in a round-about way to
Undo Titus, who received them with
delight.
Their- vacation, however, came to an
end. Jean sailed for Marseilles, having
Increased his baggage with some rare
and tattered books. Paul, however, had
iu tho meautimo rifled tho shops of ail
the dealers In oriental bibelots in Itue
de Rivoli and tbe goods of tbe dealers iu
the Palais Royal. His companion, An
tonia, who accompanied blm aud assisted
him in obtaining these exotio acquisi
tions, availed herself of tbe opportunity
of securing a Mahometan outfit.
The two brothers arranged it so that
they would ring at tbe same time at the
door of their Uncle Titus. He -covered
them with kisses.
"Let us look a moment at what you
have both brought back," said tho good
man, who was filled with curiosity.
Packages were piled np in the vest!
bule. They all belonged to Paul. Jean
bad only a valise, that which he carried
away with blm, a little heavier on nc
count of the books be bad collected.
Uncle Titus, seeing il, shrugged his
shoulders, but befell into ecstasies when
Paul unpacked bis treasures. He al
most fainted as the articles irere dis
playedthe arms, the perfumes, and the
mauy-colored slippers.
A cruel doubt entered tho mind of
Uncle Titus. Had Jean really beeu to
Constantinople?
One day, as the uncle and bis two

LEHIGHTON, CARBON COUNTY,
npbews vers promenading hear tho
railway Mftliou, which is tho chief dls
trao'.lon in n provincial town, they came
upon a group of persona who bad formed
about bo mo travelers who bad descended
from tho train. In tbe center wero two
Englishmen jabbering, and with tbem n
pretty girl In n Mahometan costume.
At tbe first glance recognized An-
tonln, drcssod as when ho lei t ber. Her
story was a simple one. One of tbe
Englishmen bad fallon In love with her,
and had taken her with him on condition
that she continued to woar tho costume
in which she bail bewitched him. By
speaking to blm In a perfectly incompre
hensible idiom she bad succeeded in
convincing blm that she was indeed an
oriental. As soon as slio saw her former
I friend, she exclaimed:
Bonjonro, mlCaro raulichi" making
at tho same time a sign which he at onco
understood.

teponlichl" replied l'aul.
Tbe jealous English listened and look
ed at ibem anxiously,
An infernal plan presented Itself to tho
mind of Uncle Titus. lie would fceo if
Jean, like his brother, was ablo to speak
with tho Turkish girl in her own lang
uage.
"You say nothing lo tbe yonng wo
man " said ho to Jenn. "Bub appears to
come Irom Constantinople, Speak to
ber of ber country; that will please
her."
Do yon come from Constantinople?''
said Jean to her, speaking in tho best
Turkish, aud advancing with a gracious
air.
Antonia stared at him stnpidly. He
repeated his words. At this tbe jealous
Englishman could restrain himself no
longer, oud be gave Jeau a ringing box
on the car, to which tbe other English
man added a kick.
There was a lively scuffle. Jenn was
finally dragged nway from his assailants
by Paul. But from that time the idea
was fixed iu the mind of Undo Titus
that Jean bad never been to tho orient.
Jean bed deceived him, He erased his
name from bis will.
THEQUARREL.
The brief March tlay was drawing to a
close and the twilight was already
eclipsed In the cily with flaring gas
lights. Lilian Graham clung clossr to
her friend's side with almrst a sensation
of terror.
"Ibad no idea it was so late, EfBp,"
sbo said to Mrs. Wallis, ber companion.
'Ob, I am so glad!" sbo exclaimed, with
a sudden joyous intonation of her voice,
"Meredith Allston is coming. He will
see ua safe homo.
As sin spoke a tall figure approached
the figure of n gentleman walking rap
idly down the street, with the lamplight
shining full upon his dark eyes aud
regular Icatnres.
"Mr, Allstou! Meredithl"
But, to Lilian's surpris-.-, tbe gentle
man took no notice of ber hesitating
summons, but passed her, looking into
her eager, flushed face with a cureless
glance of uurecouition.
She drew herself haughtily tip and bit
her lip.
' I might have spared myself tho trouble
of speaking," she s.iid, "if I bad ouly
known that Mr. Allston does not know
bis acquaintances in tbe street."
Lilian Graham looked very pretty as
she sat in ber father's drawing-room that
night with the so:t light from the chan
delier streaming around her slender fig
ure.
Mr. Allston s face brightened as he
entered tho room a few minutes after the
little ormolu time-pieco on the clock-
shelf had struck 8.
'Yon are looking very well, Lilian,
ho said, with sometbiug of the conscious
pride of proprietorship.
Lilian bit ber lip.
"You did not stop to think nbout my
looks when I really needed your escort
this eyeuing,'' sbo said, n little coldly,
He looked nt ber in astonishment,
"I don't kuow what yon mean, Lit
Ian."
"Were yon not cn Cth nvenuo this eve
ning, between G nnd 7?"
'No; I Has not."
Miss Graham's cheeks flushed.
"Mr. Allston, I can hardly discredit
the evidence of my own senses! I certain
ly saw you. aud so did Mrs. Wallis!"
He looked pained, but offered no furth
er explanation of the mystery.
"Are yon ready for tbe concert?" bo
asked.
"I have changed my mind," she said,
briefly. "I don't want to go!"
"Vory well," be said quietly. "lean.
not, of couue, dispute your decision, I
wish you a very good evening."
"I wish I hadn't been so cross with
blm," sbo said, shrugging her pretty
shoulders remorsefully. ''Efllo, let's ask
papa to take us to tbe opera; we shall be
in time for tbe last two acts!"
The opera bonso was crowded, but tbe
party with difficulty found seats at tbe
back of tbe dress circle bnt Lilian was
hardly seated before she pressed ber
cousin's urm.
'Eflle, look there In tbe parquet
close to the orchestra etalisl"
Yes," said Mrs. Walllsj "I see-it is
Mr. Allston; but that's no reason yon
should pinch me black and blue, t sup
pose a man has a right to come to tbe
opera, if be cboosesl"
Lilian was delightod when she met
Mr. Allston the next morning on Broad
way,
"I hope you enjoyed yourself last
night,' she said, demurely.
"I can't say that I did, particularly,'
ho answered, with a smile. 'I spent tbe
evening at borne, over my books, and re
tired very early,"
"I beg your pardon," said IJllan,
"you were at the opera, for I saw you
there!"
"You ate mistaken, Lilian!"
Live and Let Live."
PA., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1884.
"I am not mistaken," she nnswercd,
positively; "I saw you there, and Efllo
did, also, Where's tho use of trying to
deceive mo so?"
I nm not trying to deceive you, Lil
ian, but there are some things which I
cannot tell you."
"As yon choose." she retorted, "but I
do not choose to be mailo the butt of
your practical jokes any longer.
Please to consider our engagement at an
ond."
Sbo drew tho glittering engagement
ring from her finger aud tossed it toward
him.
The weeks passed by, nnd, somewhat
to Lilian's disappointment, perhaps,
Meredith Allston made no further effort
to see ber. Sbo toon grew pale and
beavy.eyed, but sbo would have died ere
she would have sent to her lover, sayiug:
I have been wrong come !o me once
morel'
She sat at ibe bead of her father's din-
ucr-table one evening, mecbnnically de
voting herself to tbe duties of hospitali
ty, when a well-known namo sounded on
her ear.
"Allston," said one, n pursjMooking
old gentleman, who was eating a great
deal of lobster-salad. "Yes, I saw the
notice ol tbe death in the morning paper.
It's one of the Allston's of Gramercy
Gardens Meredith Allston's cousin. He
was hopelessly insaue. A fiue-looklng
yonDg .fellow, too. They say bo looked
very muoh Uko Meredilb. Got looso
one night, I believe, nnd paraded about
town, behaving himself so well that half
the people mistook him for his cousin,
ha, ha, ha!"
While Lilian listened, feeling as if sbo
were in a dream. She could hardly sit
through the tedious courses of tho form
at dinntr party, nt.d rejoiced when the
time came for herself nnd Mrs. Wallis to
leave tbe table. Lilian's heart urced
her on and sbo could not rest until she
had summoned Meredith Allston to ber
presence.
He came, somewhat surprised, yet not
lacking in dignity.
'Meredith," sho said, softly, coming
up to him, "will you forgive me? I have
been wrong and hasty, but I love you
still. I never kuow until to-niehtof of
the cloud which overshadowed your
household."
"I kuew you wero misunderstanding
me, Lilian," bo said, calmly, '-but my
lips 'were sealed by a promise exacted
by my father!"
"Then you will forgive me?"
He smiled,
"It is easy to forgivo ouo wo love," Le
said, gently.
GRAND-AUNT GARRAfAY.
"To my Graud-Anut Garraway'sl'

tho daily stage!

lngwomau.
'I'd ns boon be buried nlivel" sobbed
Phenbe.
Miss Parks remained to console pretty
Pbcobe Tacsou as sho helped to pack tho
trunks, which were to bo sent to Giund-
Aunt Garrawny's by express.
"Aud I'm not even allowed to bid bira
gooa-njer wnlled the forlorn young
damsel. ' Oh, I don't nee bow mamma
ciu be so hard-hearted I'
"Is be very handsome?" said Miss
Parks, whose life had not known many
love affairs.
"Exactly like a troubadour!'' said
Pbcobe, enthusiastically.
"Aud what is his business?" said MUs
Patks.
"Ho is here on a private embassy for
tbe It issidii government," said Pbcobe,
proudly. "But that's just what mamma
wou't believe."
So Pbcobe Tacsou was sent to Grand
Aunt Garraway's, at tbe foot of High
peak, to get ber out of the way of Mr,
Middletou Da Motte.
Tho old lady had traveled in Europe,
rend all the newest bookd, and drove
little basket pbaeton with a fat, dappled
pony, aud, to Phcobe's surpriso, she was
cmineutly sympalhio.
"Dear auuty," said the girl. "I never
dreamed you were as nice as this!"
"Well, my dear." said Grant-Aunt
Garraway, "I have been young myself,
and I dou't believe iu putting too much
restraint npon the heart" (hero Pbuibe
jumped np aud kUsed her)--"do, when I
got your mother's letter I thought the
matter over. If you really believe you
can't live without Ibis young man "
"Darling auntyl" faltered Phoebe,
"may I tell you a secret?"
"Confide entirely in me, my child,"
said Grand-Aunt Garraway, pattiug ber
cheek.
"Well, then, bo met me under tbe
trees lust night," confessed Phoebe, "by
the light of tbe moon I"
"You've written to him then?" said
Graud-Aunt Garraway, with a shrewd
twinkle in her hazel eyes.
"Y-yes," owned Pbcobe. "I told blm
it-was unlike auything that I bad antic
ipated, I described your pretty furni
ture and choice china and the solid-silver
tea service vltb Garraway monogram on
it, and your set of amethysts, and be
came on by tbe enrhtat train."
"Ob be did?'' said Grand-Aunt Garra
way. "He said bo was hungerlngand thirst
ing for one of my sweet glances," added
Pbcobe, blushing very prettily. "And
be slept on tbe bay in the barn last
nlgbt."
"My dear child, this will never do!'
pronounced Grand-Aunt Garraway. "He
must come beret"
"Here, aunty?"
"I want to see blm for myself," said
Mrs. Garraway,
"Bat what will mamma tn.fi"

"Yon mother, my child, has every
confidence In my judgment," 'said Grand
Aunt Garraway, impressively. "For
that reasan," said tbe old lady, wilh
dignity, "I Invito him hero as a guest.
My husband's nephew, Harry Sanlord,

there is plenty of room. Harry shall

Motto bhall have the red room. Where

"I 1 think he's having a cigar and
reading tbe newspaper in the smoke
house," rather guiltily confessed Pbeobe.
"Go and call him in," said Mrs. Garra
way. "Tell him be shall be welcome."
And Pbcobe obeyed scarcely able to
believo be Qwn ours.
Mr. De Motte was indeed tall nnd
troubadourtlik. He had dark, pensive
eyes, and woro n very handsome satin
necktie; and If bis finger nails were not
as clean as Mrs. Garraway liked to see,
aud his pocket handkerchiefs were not
of the finest lii.cn, still people thought
differently on such subjects.
"Harry Sauford looks tbe most of a
gentleman," thought Mrs. Garaway.
Aud even PLcube. in a mental com
parison, could not help owing to herself
that Sanford seemed tho most nt his
case.
Grand-Aunt Garraway smiled ber
sweetest and seemed to notice nothing
amiss. Harry Sanford diligently talked
politics and did bis bost to nmnse the
stranger. Nevertheless, when Pbcobe
went to bed that night sho was not so
bapny ns she had expected to be.
In tho dead of the night Grand-Aunt
Garraway's hand Jell softly on I-bcube's
shoulder. She startel up.
'HushI" said the old lody. "Don't
utter n sound. Get np. Come down
stairs with me."
'What is the matter?" gasped tho
gI.
"Your fine lover Is breaking into my
big cherry-wood bureau," said Mrs.
Garraway. "Ho has a complete kit of
burglars tools. But don't look so fright
ened, my dear. The jewel-caso Is there,
but it is empty. Harry Sanford has tho
pins aud pendants at tho county bank.
He's welcomo to all be can find; aud
Harry and tho farm laborer have gut bis
accomplice safely tied outside, niul they
ure ready to seize on him. tho moment he
steps across the threshold. Bnt oomo; I
want you to seo for yourselll"
And, standing on tbe staircase, where
she could peep through the transom light
iuto the back parlor, Pbcobe beheld ber
troubadour lover picking locks and pry
ing open drawers In'n most business-like
raauuer. ,
In spite of her resolution sbo uttered a
little cry.
Mr. De Motto looked up and saw ber.
Tbe next instant tbe room was in dark
ness.

"But we caught tbe fellow as neatly as
possible," Mr. Hurry Sauford said altcr-
wnrd, "with tbe empty jewel-caso in bis
possession and a lot of silver Bpoons in
bis breast pocket."
"He's an old baud, tbe Albany author
ities soy. 'Ltght-tingored Lemuel.' they
call him; nnd he's safe to get a long
term in tho penitentiary."
Alas, poor Pbcobe!
"But bow did you know ho was a Ihicf,
Aunt Garraway?" she said.
"I didn't know, child," said tie old
lady. "I only suspectod that everything
wasn't all right. But don't fret. One
doesn't expect a yonnc; girl llko you to
be tbe best judge of character in the
world. Harry Sanford declared be was
a rascal tbe first moment be set eyes on
bim."
So tbe expedition to Grand-Aunt
Garrawny's proved a success, after all
Tbe Middleton-Do Motte engagement
wus brokeu up, and there is every proba
bility that a new one will rise, phoonix-
like, out of tbe ashes.

Now, that Girlmasber is perfectly illit

'Which foreign language?"
"Tbe'German; you should baye seen
how beautifully he even dances it; and I
know that nuy ono who can go through
it cracofully with bis feet can talk the
