Mr. Glenn ntood warmin; bis coat

and destitute, with that litt'e child

"No means, echoed the ladv,

After that I wash my bands of both

Never was fiddlesticks I' retorted
Mrs. Glenn, growing red in the face.
'And, desperutely added Mr,
uionn, i tuougut as our spare
chamber wasn t occnpiod at present,
yoa would invite Fanny and her
child to stay bore as a sort of bead

'A teacher ' sneored Mrs. Glonn.

"Lady or no lady, I'll not have

angrily. 'And if uhe thinks'
But at this momoat the somewhat
atormy dialogue was interrupted by
the opening of tbe door which led
into an adjoining room, and a tall,
aweet faced young woman in wid
ow's weed's, entored leading a our
ly-beaded little child by the band
"Geoffrey,' said she, in tremulous
accents. I was waiting in the otu
er room and beard all. I ooaldn
Help it. And, while I thank you

Mrs. Glenn bridlod and drow bor

'I never beard a case yet of list

Fanny Vivian held oak bor oold

"Good bye, Geoffrey, ' said sho,

And so tha young widow left her

She was pale weaned and worn.
In place of the substantial silks in
which she nsed to rustle about, she
wore a threadbare brown poplin,
spotted here and there by raodicine
stains.
As she shut tho nurse with a siVh

'Not far,' Eligia answored j a

Mrs. Glonn stood bositatinga mo

the bad nevor uohberatoly asked
fur charity before, but tho time had
come ia which sho had no alternative
left
Her husband was perishing before
her eyes, aud Geoffrey's long illness
had consumed all their sloudor re
sources.
For herself she would almost bavo
cowered down ia somo alloy and
starved, but sho could not soo the
sick tnau suffer.
I cannot beg of straDgors and al
ions.' she thought, with a thrill of
aversion at tho idea 'but I think I
could ask for help from eoiao one
who was born in my own country.
And thus reasoning within horsolf,
Mrs. Glenn toilod along tbe burn

But whon at last she readied the
magnificent mansion, whoso marble

that of tbe queou of bheba, failed
wilhiu her.
As she stood hositating, a respect
able, white haired old butlor came
to the door.
Did you want to soo Mr. Clovo-
land f " be asked, in acoonts that bo
trayed this English nationality.
"I wish to see Mrs. Cleveland,'
poor Clara answerod.
'Your card, if yoa ploaso, ma'am V
said tbe butler.
"I have no card," said Cara, color
ing. "Toll Mrs. Clevelaud that it is
an English lady who wishes to soe
hor."
And with some dignity she follow
ed the man into the ante-room,
where a gorgeous Persian rug oov
ered the marblo floor,
Presently a light footstep sounded
on the echoing pavement of tho hall
without, and a tall lady dressod in
white muslin, with floating ribbons,
entered the room.
She started back with a cry of
glad surpiso as ber eyes fell on Mrs.
Ulenn s wan and laded loco.
"Clara 1"
"My God I it is Fanny Vivian I"
shrieked Mrs. Olenn, scarcely bo
liovinor bor eves,
And Fanny, ringing the boll for
wine and refreshments, threw bor
arras around tho sister-inlaw she
had never again expoeted to soe.
Before dark Gooffroy Ulenn was
comfortably established in one of the
groat airy rooms of the Villa Castel

Fanny's story, when related in
detail, proved romantic
She bad accepted an engagement
as governess with a-family going to
Italy, taking Linda with hor.
There she hud mot with a wealthy
widowor, who had lost his heart to
hor blua, wistful eyes and pooch-like
bloom, and for five yoars she had
boon living at Villa Castellani, like a
young quoen in hor palace.
"sou must stay witu me now, doiu

While Geoffrey, looking np with a

"I shall get well now, Fanny, for

"Forgive yoa, Clara t what for f"

"Never speak of it acain. Clara.'
said Mrs. Cleveland, tenderly kissing

had punished the carelessly uttered
woras.
Origin of tha Postage Stamp.
Tbe postage stamp was born in
London on the 10th of January.
1840, and England employed it alone
for ten years. France adopted it on
tho 1st of January, 1849, and Gor
man y in 1850. According to M.
Alphonso Espartos, it was a curious
incident that give rise to the idea of
postage stomps. A traveler was
crossing, about forty years ago, a
district in tbe north of England.
lie arrived at the door of an inn
where a postranstor had stopped to
iloiiver a lottor. A young girl come
out to rocoivo it sho turnod it ovor
and over iu ber hand and OBksd the
price of postago. This was a largo
sum, and evidontly tho girl was poor,
for the postmaster dumandod a shili
ling. Sho sighed sadly, and said tho
lotter was from hor brothor, but she
bad no mouey ; and so she rotnrnod
it to tho postman. Tha travclor was
a man who ramblod about tho earth
for instruction and observation
Having a good heart, bo ollurod to
pay the powtago of tho letter, and in
spite of the rosistanco of the youn
girl ho paid tho shilling. Her rcsU
tance made him rollout. Hoarculv
had tho postman turnod bis back
when the yonnginnkoopor's daugh
ter confessed that it was a trick be
tweenber and iivr brother. Somo
signs marked ou tho envolope told
her all sho wanted to know, but tho
lottor conlaiuod no writing.
"We are both so poor, sho add
ed, "aud so wo iuvunted this inodo
of corresponding and prepaying our
lettors. ' iuo traveler, continuing
his road, asked bimsolf if a svstom
giving plaoe to such frauds) was not
a vicious ouo.
Tho sun had not sot boforo Mr.
Rowland ill (that was tho namo of
tho travelor) bad planned to organ
ize tho postal service ou a now busis.
He said that iu England, whoro fam
ily ties aro strong, and whore tho
morabors oftou lived far nprrt,
hero, too, tho spirit of oommome
knows no limits, the corronpondonce
was only limited by tho cost of tho
post and that by lowering this
barrier, a groat sorvico would bo
rendered to society without hurting
the resourcos of the treasury. Ihoso
views were agreed to by tho English
Government, and on the 10th of
January, 1840, not more than a pen
ny was paid for lettors which circu
lated ovor tho wbola extent of the
British Isles. This bold schemo
soon surpassod tho hopes of th e leg
islators, len years lator, in 1850,
the number of loiters inoreased from
1,500,000 to 7,230,0G2. Mr. Row
land Hill oooupied in England tho
post of Socrotary to the Postmaster

The Drunkard's Appetite.
There was living not long since, in
Brookbn, a man who had inherited
from a drunken farther the appetite
for rum. lie was a hopeloss drunk
ard. 1 be man bad many noble in
stincts, and better than all those,
be had a loving, brave wife, who
made skillful war upon tho domon,
hor husband's rnaator. Ilocoguizing
the fact that hor husband was undor
an overpowering impulse, that ho
longed and struggled manfully to
free himself from the passion for
drink, she bout all tbe onergiesof
her woman nature to the task of
helping bim. She loved and suffer
ed, and toiling accomplished their
purpose. Sho took bor husband by
the bond and shared with him bis
strugglo, until aftor yoars of lubor
she overcome bis mastor, and saw
him a freo man again. Hor battlo
with rum had boon a floroo one, tax
ing and wasting hor strongth sorely,
but she was conquoror at last. Her
husband stood upon manly feet and
showod no signs of fulling again.
Several years passed away, and this
reformed man lull ill or consump
tion. Tho distinguished physician,
from whose lips wo bavo the story,
proscribed alooholio stimulants as
the only moans poBsiblo of prolong,
ing bis life. Tbe poor wife was in
terror, aud begged tho physioian to
recall his proscription. Bhe told
him of har long strugglo and vic
tory, and said thai sho preforrod
that bor husband should die then,
sober man, than that ha should
fill a drunkard'a grave a year lator.
Unt the freed spirit of the man was
strong, and bo undertook; to take al
ooholio liquors as a medioiuo, and to
oonflne bimsolf absolutely to such
times and moasures in the matter
as the nhvsioian should prescribe
This ho did, and during the months
