I've often read ami heard about liow per sons feel when death "stares them In tho face," as tliey say in stories. I used to wonder what kind of a sensation It was Now I know. You tee, John John's my lnisband- was foreman of the iilht hands In the fac tory lor a ion- lime. He wunt to Ills work at six at night, and came, home at five o' clock in the iiiotnlris. Sol liaJ to stay alone all night, or the. same as alone, anv- way, inougli the chllil there was company lor me, out tor all the help she .1 be In any trouble that might happen, I nilqht as well have been eutlicly alone, you see. I ncrcr was afraid of burglars, because we hadn't anything they'd think It worth their while to come after. And then wo didn't hear much about them In those days though they've got to be plenty enough since. If I'd heard as much aliimt ibnm then as I do now, I presume I would have felt timid. Rut, as It was. I fell as safe as you please, and when John used to coax me to let iilm get a bor, or a big dog, to stay with me, I alwaj-s told him I didn't want to be bothered with them. One day a friend of John's, who had been working In the factory a long time. and saved up quite a little suai from his wa-es, cut tired of that kind of life, und sahl he was going to iptit It, and find lilm a little farm somewhere, and settle down. I knw what that meant. IleM laheil -a fancy to a girl that worked In the factory. and he wanted to make a home somewhere for himself and a wife. lie and John had always been the hestof friends, so it was quite natural he should bring his money here, and ask John to keep it for him till he wanted to use It. He didn't want to carry it with him. he said, while he was looking up the little farm he had set his mind on biiyina. John told him he had better put It lu the hank, whero it would be safer, and growing a lit tle, but he said ho d feel jilst as safe about It if he left It with Us as he would If he put It In the bauk.and he didn't think it would have a chance to Increase milch before he got around to use It, because he calculated to buy his farm as soon as lie found thcone that suited him, Sci he left It. There was a trifle over a thousand dollars, he told John, and I thought by the way he looked at It when he gave It tu my husband, that he fell all Ids chance for flie future was wrapped up In the bills. They represented the bom he hail set his heart on having, joti see, and I couldn't help thinking what If he should lose It? ; John took the) money and put it lnilie mi ui inui oin oiue cnesi in in . . w there. i when tory.

Any way that's what I always shall believe about It, for how else, I'd like. t know, should he have known anything about It? But there. I'm telling yon my opinion, and what you want to near, l suppose, is what happened, One stormy night, about a week after that, John went off to his work as usual. 1 felt kind of nervous some way, though I couldn't tell why I felt so. I've wondered a good many times since then, If I didn't havo a sort of presentiment of what was going lo hapuen. Hut I made up my mind that It was the storm and the wirdthal kept howling round the house that u.ado me feel so, and I didn't say n wonl to John about It. i lie child, there, was about two years old then. I told her stories for an hour or two, and then when she begun to feel sleepy, I sung to hnr,and it wasn't long he lore she was tucked up In bed, fast asleep. Then I got my knitting and sat down by the firs, and worked until the clock struck nine. By (hat time I was sleepy and con cluded I d go to bed, too. I must hae slept about three hours, for when I woka up tho big clock on the city nan was sinning midnight. . As I lay there, listening to the clock, I heard a step In the hall. The first thought that came to me was that something had happened at the factory and that John had come home. But as the stena nm.!..,, the door I knew they wer not John's. I was wide awake In a minute, and the won der Is that I didn't CCt un nt mine At first I thought I would, and then I thought perhaps It would be better to keen still and sco what was going to happen. Getting up nnd rushing out Into the other room wouldn't help matters any, and It might make them a good deal worse. The stcuY came .to the kitchen door and then paused. 'Then I heard the door open sonly.nnd some one came Into the kitchen. The door between the kitchen and bed room was open a trifle, and as t looked out I saw a man with a lantern In his hand. He stood there listening. You can well believe I was frightened. I didn't date to stir or scream. I just lav still and looked out of the least little bit of a crack In my eyelids. I knew the man as soon as I got a good look at his face. He was a great, burly fellow, who had been a hand in the factory some time back. I had heard John say that lie had been dis charged because the proprietors thought he stole. He stood thero less than a minute, I suppose, but It seemed to me that it was more than an hour. Then he came toward the bed.room. He pushed the door open softly anil looked In, holding up his Ian tern that he might seejhrough the. open mg. I shut my eyes light then. He stood there and wtchcd me for a time, with the light shining full In my face. It was terrl- uiir, icmuie. i uiuu i tiare to move a muscle. I was In acony for fear the baby wouldfwnke up. I felt sure then, and I do now, till he would have killed me If he had thought 1 was awake. You can't have any Idea what I suffered as I lay there. It seemed to mo that lite jusl depended on my keeping still, and to keep still under such circumstances was a pretty hard thing to do. I don't pretend to say that I'm more courageous than lots of other women but I don't believe you can find many who would brave It out In that kind of danger better than I did By am) by he seemed satisfied that I was asleep, and turned away from the bed-room door, leaving It wide open. I saw lilm go over to the old blue chest, and I knew thea what he was after. I breathed easier When his back was turned. I didn't dare to stir, though, but Just lay there with my eyes open anil watched him. I saw lilm take a big btincli of keys out of his pocket and try several before he found one that fitted the lock of the chest. Ptetty soon ho found one that would open it. He turned the cover back against tin wall, and went to rummaging about In the till for the money that was covered p with some old clotli and papers II wasn't long before he fund It, and after making sure It was what ho was after, he put It In his pocket and shut up the chest. You can't Imagine how I felt when I knew that poor Ben Green was likely to lose his money. Ho had worked so hard for It, and depended so much on It to help mm get a home, that losing It would be like death to him. I wouldn't have felt so bad If It had been our own, I'm sure. When he had closed the chest he took up his lantern and came hack to the bed room door and looked at me aealn. to make sure, I suppose, that I was asleep. I shut my eyes again, and deceived him as I had before. Then he went Into tho hall. but Instead of going toward the frontdoor, he went the other way, and I heard him open the door into the cellarway. I.Ike a Hash It came to nle that I could trap him If I was quick enough. I never stopped lo think about ' what . might happen all I thought about was saving poor lien's mon- ttV I ,,, .,F l.n.t el!.r.n.l I 1 !. ,...11 I . a ..... w. ..., .,,, uuu mo nan, aim was rioo u.uinc mm, as Ue Blood looKln3Uown Into the darkness. In let's I .1 ., i nine man uiaiicsio ten 11,1 sprang against nun wiin every bit or the strength there was In nic, and he went tumbling headloi-g down the stairs. Then I swung the door i shut, slipped the bolt Into Its placo, and he was my prisoner. 1 knew he couldn't get , oiu 01 inu cenar unless lie camo through the door, for It was walled up witlt stone, and I felt pretty sure of that door, for If you'll look at It, you'll see that It's thick and heavy. Dear me! How the man did rayo and swear. It made my blood run cold lo hear lilm. But I didn't stop lo listen long. I slipped on my dress( took the baby arid wrapped her up In a shawl, and started for the nearest neighbor's for help. I got a boy to go to the factory foi John, and the neighbor and I went back to the house. The uian was trying to beat the door down lh something he had found In the ccllaij when we got there. The neighbor had a pistol, and he was all ready to fire at the nan the minute he made a hole through the door. But before he succeeded III do ing tlut, John came, with two or three others, and they captured him without! Bo, vou im, I nsrf J Ben's an, ana the urst tiling John did next morning was to take It to the bank wouldn't have kept It In the house ariother night for any thine. And that very day John gave up his night job, and I haven't been alone a since. I didn't know how frightened I really was until it was all oyer. Bot after they nail the man, and I knew the muney was safe, I seemed to give out some way, all at once, and I had to go to bed; and It was two or Ihtve days before I began to feel like myself. I tell you what It is, 1 don't want another such adventure. One's enough for me. MAN. Man that Is born nf woman Is small pota toes and few In the hill.

A PHILOSOPHICAL TRAMP. A gentleman on Kast Fourth street found a ragged tramp sitting on his front steps eating his lunch. "Here! What hfe you doing there?" he RllOlltf'll. "Partaking of a slight lunch. Will you loin me?" the tramp politely responded, "No. 1 don't want any of your villain ous feed." "I hat's so; It is iiretly tough kind of fodder. I just got It out of your kitchen. lour wife must be doing her own cookinj now." "What's that, you Infernal hound?" ex claimed the angry man. starting towaid the tramp, still sitting quietly on the step. "Don t get excited, sir; don't eel excit. ed. Think a minute. Aren't you tnistak en In calling mo a hound?" "No, I'm not, and I'll" "But. my dear sir, you are mistaken. 1 am no hound; I'm a sotter." The gentleman gazed at the tramp In aih miration and muttering something about a newspaper patagrapher gone astray, he left lilm to finish ids lunch. A FATHER REBUKED. Col. McLeod. although not a had tnan at heart, uses very rough language In his In tercourse with Ills family. On returning to his home from his place of business, a few- days ago, he found his wife very much ex cited oyer tho outrageous conduct of a tramp, who, being dissatisfied with tho food given him by Mrs. McLcod.had abused her in a most outrageuus manner. "Johnny," said Col. McLeoil) to his ten year-old son; "when you heard that cow ardly scoundrel abusing your mother, why didn't you run to tho store oulck. and let me knowl IJIdh't you hear?" "les, pa, I was out In the stable and heard what he said about the victuals ma av him, and how he abused her, but" "But what?" "I thought It was you scolding ma. He used the same cuss words as you do when Ilie.illniRT don't suit you, sol thought It couldn't be anybody else hut you. I didn't think anybody else would dare talk to ma that way."
