THE OLD MILL.
HV THOMAS DUNN EKOMSn.
Here from the brow or tho hill I look
Through a lattice of houghs and leaves
On the old gray mill, with Its pumbrcl root
Anil the moss on Its rotting eaves.
I hear tho elatter that Jars Its walls,
Anil the rushing water s sound.
And I sec tho black floats rise mid (all
As the wheel goes slowly round.
I rode there often when I was young,
With my grist on tho horse before,
Aud talked with Ncllv, the miller's girl,
As I waited my turn at the door.
Aud while she tossed her ringlets brown,
And flirted and chatted so free,
The wheel might stop or tho wheel might
Bo
lt was all tho same to me.
'TIj twenty years since last I stdod
On the spot where I stand to-day,
And Nelly Is wed ami the miller is dead,
Aud the mill and I are gray.
Rut both, till wo fall Into ruin and wreck,
To our fortunes ot toll are bound.
And the man goes and the stream flows
Ami the wheel mores slowly round.
RUBY'S VISIT,
BY HELEN TORItEST GRAVES
"Let her come to the farm," said old
Mr. Emits. "Shtfll enjoy the blue-bells
and the peach orchards, and tho white
clover blossoming along tho roadside.
It Will bo a great deal cheaper than
Newport and more sensible than Cape
May."
".Oh, papa, do let me go!" said Euby,
clasping hir pink Angers ecstatically to
gether. "Mamma, say yes."
A year ago, Mr. and Mrs. Aden Arch'
cr would have considered this tort of
thins as nothing more nor less than
banishment. The Misses Archer had
never been anywhere else than at Sara-
toga, Lonj Branch and Atlantic City.
But times were altered now. The "fi
nancial pressure," whatever that might
be, had acted very unpleasantly on the
atmosphere of the Archer household.
Euphclla, the eldest daughter, had just
discovered that Mr. Fontenoy Favrier,to
whom she had engaged herself, was not
next heir to an English baronetcy, at all,
but a defaulting clerk from Thread
needle Street, with half a dozen detec
tives after htm; and Alicia, the second
blossom of tho family-tree, had been un
ceremoniously deserted by Mr. Dallas,
of tho I'olo Club.
"If a girl aw hasn't got money,
you know aw," said Mr. Dallas,
"there's no use aw In keeping up the
thing. Vq alu'tllke wavens nowadays,
to be fed by aw the prophets. We
must aw 'have cash."
"But, mamma," pleaded Ruby, "you
said I was to come out this winter."
"Child, don't be absurd," said Mrs.
Archer. "I said you should be Intro
duced Into society, If Euphy and Alllo
were married, but they're not; and I
can't go into ball-rooms at the head Of
a regiment of daughters. What would
people say?"
'It Isn't my fault that they are nof
married," pouted Ituby; "and I am so
tired of the nursery. Mamma, cau't I
go to Atlantic City with you?"
"Certainly not!" said Mrs. Archer.
"And mind, Rublna, if any one asks
you how old you are, you must say six
teen."
"Why," cried Ruby, with open brown
eyes of astonishment. "But I was sev
enteen last birthday!"
"There's no sense In your growing
up so fast!" pronounced Mrs. Archer,
Irritably.
"How can I help It?" said Ruby, al
most ready to cry. "I can't put a stone
on my head, can I?"
"There are the girls to consider," said
Mrs. Archer, sorrowfully.
"How are they to bs bettered by my
telling lies about my age?" retorted
Ruby.
And then her mother told her to hold
her tongue and not speak again until
she was spoken to.
So that old Uncle Ennls' offer was
truly welcome when it came, and merry
little Ruby was like a lamb let loose
upon the hills that sloped down to the
blue tides of the majestic Connecticut
river.
She tore her dimpled brown fingers
with bUckberry-brlcrs; she rifled birds'-
nests for additions to her collection of
eggs; sho romped like a child, whistled
llko a boy, until all of a sudden sho was
recalled to tho facts of real life.
Sho had come in from the blackberry
fields all sunbrowned and happy, her
cherry lips stained with tho purple dye?
ot the fruit, to find Uncle Ennls poring
Intently oyer a couple of letters.
"Well, little one," said he, "what do
you think? Here aro two surprises for
youl"
"Two, uncle?" the cried.
"Ono to a picnic-party at the Great
Gorge."
"Oh, can I go?" exclaimed Ruby,
jumping up from her bowl of bread
and milk. "Jerome Franklin toll mo
that''
"Hold on, lassie hold on.t" said Un
do Ennls. "The other M a proposal of
marriage. Mr. Dubarry wants ihy sanc
tlon and all that sort of thing.",
"Mr. Dubarry, Indeed I" said Ruby
turning very red. "A stuffy old pro
fessor who don't know anything except
about the ruins of Pompeii and Hqrcu
lancuml" "You don't like hiin.'pet?"
"No, Indeed, I don't."
''Then," said Uncle Ennls, indulgent
ly, "there Is an end of tho whole thing.
Only when my little girl begins to rc
cclre offers of jnarriage, It gives me a.
queer sort of feeling."
Ruby ate her bowl of b'rtad and milk
silently.
"I wish they wouldn't!" said she.
"Some day you'll wish they would,"
said the old gentleman.
And ho laughed so heartily at his Joke
that Ruby could not help but laugh
also.
"But one thing you must mind, my
little lass," he added more gravely "let
that Jerome Franklin alone."
"Why, Uncle Ennls?" said Ruby,
carnestiy.
"He's a wild fellow," said Mr. Ennls.
"These Franklins never any of them
came to good yet."
"But perhaps he will," said Ruby.
"I wouldn't try the experiment If I
was you," said Uncle Enn'.s.
And just then Ruby looked up and
saw. Harry Safford standing In the door
way. "1 wonder," she thought, "If he has
heard all we have been saying?. I don't
llko narry Safford ono bit. He is so
prcclso and dignified, and Polly Twitter
says he thinks I am a romp. What
business has ho to think about tho mat
ter ono way or another?"
So Ruby rose and went out of the
room with tho stateliest step that she
could command; and although narry
waited till nine o'clock, she never came
back.
"I wanted to ask her to go with me
to the picnic at the Great Gorge," raid
Harry to Mr. Ennis. "Doyou thlnkthe
will accompany me?"
"Well, I don't know," said Uncle
Ennls, looking Intently Into the bowl of
his pipe. "I rather guess, by what she
said, that she calculates to go with
Jerome Franklin.
Safford's dark face flushed.
"Is he a fit associate for her?" he In
quired.
'Xo, I don't think ho is. But gals
are queer!" reflectively added UecIo
Ennls. "Just tell 'cm you want 'em'to
go one way, and see how straight tuey'll
start in the othcri"
Harry Safford went away with
heavy heart. One smile would have
made him happy and she had not even
vouchsafed him that.
liut the next morning there came
news that Jerome Franklin had disap
peared most unexpectedly, and so had
a considerable sum out of the safes of
Fordycc & Fordyce, in whoso legal
chambers he officiated In the capacity
of clerk. ,
And the first thought that flashed in
to Harry Safford's mind was:
"Now I can ask Ruby Archer to goto
the Great Gorge picnic with met"
And yet Harry Safford was not more
selfish than most men.
Just within the cool shadows of the
Ennls woods he found Ruby herself, her
hat hanging down her back, her tresses
all disheveled, her blue eyes drenched in
tears.
"Why, Ruby!" he cried. "What Is
the matter?"
"I've lost him!" sobbed Ruby, clasp
ing her hands despairingly. "He has
gpnel"
A sudden chill seemed to gripe poor
Harry's heart, nad she then loved
his rival so well? Were they actually
engaged?
"And It's all my on fault, too!'
contluucd Ruby, with a fresh burst of
tears. ' 'Unclu warned me how It would
be. He warned mo against having
anything to do with him. But I would
have my own way. And now I am
rightly punished, He's gone. Jerry
has run away!"
"Ruby, for heaven's sake do not speak
thus! ' said poor Harry.
"But I can't help it!" wailed Ruby.
"Did you then love blra so well?" bit
terly demanded the young man.
"Didn't care a snap about Mini"
cried Ruby. '.'But uncle told me to let
him alone, and I disobeyed. And now
he has run away, and what will uncle
say? Ob, I do wish the dog-catchers had
captured blra before I ever unfastened
his chain I"
"Ituby," said her amazed lover, "what
on earth are you talking about?"
"Why, about Jerry, the red Irish set
ter, to be sure!" said Ruby. "What
should I be talking about?"
"Is that all?" said Safford, with
great sigh of relief. "Then you may
set your heart at rest. Jerry Is safe
enough. I passed little Tommy Eaton
on the mountain-road, a few minutes
ago, bringing him homo with acbafn
and a rope. It is of tho other 'Jerry' T
am speaking Jerome Franklin. Ho
has run away, also, with a lot of money
out of Mr. Tordyce's safe."
"Has he?" said Ruby, apparently
very little Interested In this secondary
piece of Information. "Well, I am not
at all surprised. I always wondered
whero he got the money to pay for so
much jewelry. I'm sorry for his poor
mother, though. Are you quite sure
that Jerry Is safe, Mr. Safford?"
"Yes, quite," said Mr. Safford. "And
now, Ruby, that yon cannot go to the , t Is ginned and packed. tries In (bo world.

Ruby, "ne asked me, and I raid no." for it- ' craUy conddcrcd the most desirable.
"With whom, then, arts you going?"
"With nobody at all," said Ruby,
with a charming pout. , "Nobody has
asked me."-
And sho looked at Harry from under
her thickly curling lashes with such a
laughing, mischievous glance, that ho
promptly followri up his advantage.
"Will you go with me, Ruby?" said
he.
. And Ruby made him a low ourtcsy
and answered, demurely:
" "Yes. please, sir. Now let us co and
Sjnd Jerry I"
uncio linnis was uozmg over the
.weekly paper ho had 'read It twlco
through already, but ho seemed, always
to regard himself as devoted to literature
when ho fell asleep over tho weekly
paper when Ruby came to htm with
Harry Safford, leading the red Irish set
ter by Its chain.
"Oh, uncle, I'm so sorry!" said she,
penltcntlally.
"I ' am so glad, Mr. Ennls," said
Harry.
"But I let Jerry out for n run, and ho
got away from me, and little Tommy
Eaton brought him back; and please,
uncle, I'll never disobey you again.
But, uncle, that Isn't all!" sho added,
rtddcnlng exquisitely.
"Eli!" said tho old gentleman.
"What next?"
"I've promised to marry narry Saf
ford." "Hello I" said Mr. Ennls. "But I
thought you' disliked narry Safford?"
"Oh, nol" cried Ruby, with earnest
ness. "Only I was 'afraid ho disliked
me! He called mo a romp!"
"So I did," confessed Harry Safford,
'But you aro the dearest little romp In
f he world, and I love you better than any
one ebe in existence!"
So Ruby was married to Judgo Saf'
ford's son, and the two elder Miss Arch
crs were forced to confess that "our lit
tle sister" had led off tho marriage
minuet with distinguished success.
"But only to think," .said Ruby, "of
his being jealous of Jerome Franklin!
now silly men are, to bo sure I"

salmon, with a plck-axo nose and a
voice that sounded like a far-away echo
from the housetops, as she adrcsscd a
young man who trembled as he viewed
her red hatr-And stern visage, "What I
want to see you for, Is to ask you If you
are an Odd Fellow that Is, do you be
long up yonder?" and sho nodded her
head toward a building .from which ho
had just emerged.
Ho meekly replied, "I do, madam."
"Well," said said, "my man says he Is
one of you, and I want you to tell mo If
he Is an Inside watchman, and has ho
been appointed for 300 nights to watch
tho jewels? And do you have six meet
ings a week? And does ho havo to
crawl through some of them In the day
time, and lose a day's work trying to be
a noddlo grand, or a past grand bugler, or
a past bugler, or some such name ho
tells me of?1'
The young man said that- she must
havo been mlsformed, that thero was
something wrong; but she Interrupted
him with, "There' you nesdn't try to
play smarts. I understand all about
this grip business, and silent secrecy and
mum password, and you can't fool mel
You wouldn't tell me anything for a

and a lady's collar on instead of his own.
whether he'd been taking a Rebekah
decree or been at a surprise party? Ob,
nol you're innocent, you arc!"
The young Odd Fellow ventured to
remark that ho did not really understand
the drift of the Inquiry. "On, no, I see
It Is no use, you'ro all in for each other
and sworn to secrecy, and you'd say the
hroken earring I found in bis pocket
belonged to you, wouldn't you? And
if I should ask you who Aramlnta is
that I caught him talking to himself
about you'd say it was tho 'goat' jou
pretended to ride; and it I should ask
you about this muttering I hear of 'I
pass' 'order It up 'set 'em up and
givo me another hot one,' and all that
sort of thing, I suppose you'd say It was
all connected with your htf alutln degrees
and necessary to the order."
Tho young man meekly replied, as be
tried to move away, that he was In a
hurry; that perhaps Brother Buckup
would give her all the necessary inform
ation; that he could not really under
stand but sho caught him up before he
could finish the sentence with "No,
you. don't understand, oh, no! You
wonldn't tell me for a pan of doughnuts
what kind of laws you make that says a
woman shan't bo a daughter of Becky,
merely because she's got a wart on her
nose. That's what he tells me, and
then he says I should have to have a
medical examination, and that the last
woman in always has to wash the dishes
when they have thoso stuffing jubilees.
Oh, yes, It's all very fine to leave your
poor wife at borne on account of a wart
or a sore heel, but I'm going to find out
about this business. I am going to
know whether one man can hold all the
offices through the year and sit up nine
nights in the week and then tell his
wife she ean't be a Rebekah, and be an
inside sentiment or whatever you call
'em, just on account of a littlo thing
llko that. I won't troublo you any
longer, as probably you want to pass
and 'set 'em up' .somowbere; but I'll
watch that chap of mlno and If I find
there's too much goat in it, I'll forget
that I'm a woman if I don't make his
head look like a double humped bunion,
and he'll have to wear my washtub over
It for the next three months." And she
slid into the nearest' grocery aud bought
a dozen pickles and a stove lifter.
