Marian Tlarlnn was alone iti tlie vrorlil
her mother just luiried.
She was a Letitiliial, lirown liairoj girl,
with .soft sltj eyes, violet ami rosy lip
compressed to a !irnines: far liejoud Iter
years. Tor after all she ia as scarcely sev
enteen, ami so Jleacoti (jray was tellin-;

litiue Lauds over the tardy blaze, aud
a.-ked :
"JJut what are you goin' to do to 'arn

'I don't know I haven't thought
tnanima Lad su uncle in 2s'ew Yoik
who"
''Yes, yes I've hecrn tell about Lini
he was wad 'cause your mother didn't
marry just to suit liim, wasn't he?"
Marian was silent. Deacon Gray wait
ed a few minutes, hoping she would ad
mit him into her secret meditations ; Liu
she did not, and the deacon went away
home, to tell his? wife that "that Harlan
g;ul was the very queerest creature he Lad
ever come across."
In the mean while Marian was busy
packing her few scanty things into a little
carpet bag, Ly the weird flickering- light
of the dying wood fire.
"1 will go to New Vork," she said to
herself, setting her small early teeth
firmly together. 'My uicther'h uncle
shaft hear my cause pleaded tLrough my
own lips. Oh, I wish my heart would
not throb so wildly ! I am no longer
meek Minnie Harlan ; I am an orphan
all alone in the world who aiu.st tight
life's battles with my own single hands !"
Lower Broadway at seven o'clock 1. 31.
What a babel of crashins wheels, Lurry
ing humanity, and conglonierate noise it
was! Minnie Harlan sat in the coiner
of an express office, under the Care of gas j

cr.eu in tins perpetual din and tumult.
Kcr dress was very plain gray poplin
with i shabby old fashioned bonnet tied
with hhcV ribbons, and a blue veil, while
her article of baggage, the carpet bag,
lay in Lcrlap. She bad sat there two
hours, auj was very, very tired.
"Poorlttlo thing," thogiit the dark
Laird youtig clerk nearest Lcr, who ih-
Labited a sort of wire cage under a cir
clet of fits lights. .And then he took up
Lis pen aid plunged iuto a perfect At
lantic Ocean of accouuU.
"Mr. Jlvans!"
.-5ir !'
The dark Laird clerk emerged from his
cage with Lis pen behind Lis car, in obe
dience fo tho beckoning finger of Lis su
perior. "1 have noticed thatyoting woman sitt
ing there fur some time Lovr cauie tho
here ?"
"Expressed on, sir, from Millingtotj,
fowa, arrived this aheruouu."
As ihuagh -Minnie Harlan were a box
or a paper parcel.
"WLofor?"
"Consigned to Walter Harrington. Ksrj."
"And why hasnt she been called for?"
I sent up to Mr. llarringtoa'3 address
fo notify him, some time ago; I expect
an answex every moment."
'Very odd," said tho gray haired gen
tleman, taking up his newspaper.
'yes, sir, rather."
Sume three-quarters of an hour af
afterwarJs, Frank Evans came lo the pale
girl's side with an iudiscribable pity in
his hazel eyes.
"Miss Harlan, we have sent to Mr.
li'arriugton's rcsideuce "
Minuie. looked np with a fcvcrialicd
red upon Lcr cheek, and her Lands ctap
ed tightly on the handle of a faded car
pet bag.
"Aud wc regret to inform you that be
sailed lor Europe at twelve o'clock ibis
day."
A sudden blur came over Einnio's eyes
she trembled like a leaf. In all Lcr
c-ilculations, she had made no allowance
f ir any emergency like this.
'('an we do anything further for you?"
' Nothing no one can do anything for
rue now."
Prank Evans had been turning away,
but something in the piteous tone of her
voice appealed to every mat'Iy iustict
vri bin him.
'Shall I fend yoa to any of your
friends r
' I have no friends."
"Perhaps I can have yotir things sect
to some quiet family hotel ?"
Minnie opened Ler little leather purse
anil showed him two ten cent pieces,
with a smile that was almost a tear.
"This is ail the uouey I have in the
world, sir."
i'o young, so beautiful, and so desolate?
frank Evans had been a New Yorker all
his life, but had never met with an ex
actly parallel case to this. lie bit the
end of his pen in dire perplexity.
"Put what are you going to do?"
"I don't kuow, sir. Isn't there a
work-house, or some such place, I could
go tn, untii 1 could find something to do
"Hardly.' Frank could scarcely help
smilling at pior Miucis's simplicity.
"They are putting out tLe lights, and
and preparing to close the office," said
Minuie, star.ing to her iect. "I must
"0 somewhere.''
"Miss llirlan," said Frank, quietly,
"my home "u a very poor one I am only
a Lve hunureu dollar cicrK out 1 am
sure my mother will welcome you under
her roof for a day or two, it you can
trust mo."
"Trust you?" Minnie looked at him
with violet eyes obscured in tears. "Oh,
sir, I should be so thankful !"
"How late you are Frank ! Here,
give me your overcoat it is all powder
ed with snow, and
Pat Prank interrupting his bustling,
cherry-checked mother, as she stood on
tip-toe to take off bis outer wrappings.
"Hush, mother! there is a young lady
dowu stairs."
"A young lady, Frank V
"les, mother; expressed on to old
Harrington, tho rich merchant, from Iowa
lie sailed for Europe this morning, and
she is entirely alone. Mother, she looks
l.iifi poor Blanche, and I knew you
couldn't refuse her a comer here until
.could find something to do."
Mrs. Evans went to the door and called
cheerily out :
"Come up stairs, my dear you're wel
come as flowers in May ! Frank, ytu did
quite right; you alyay3 do."
The days and weeks passed on, and
still Minute Harlan remained an inmate
of Mrs. Evan's humble home. "It seems
just as though she had taken our dead
Tranche's place," said tho cozy little
widow ; aud she is so useful about the
house. I don't know how I managed
without her."
' Now Minnie, you aro not in earnest
about leaving us to mojrow ?"
"I must, dear Mr3. Evans. Only
think I have been here two months to
morrow; nd the situation aa governess
is very advantageous."
"Very well, I shall tell Frank how
obitinate yoa are."
"Pcarest Mrs. Evans, please don't.
Please keep my secret."
"What secret is it, that is to be eo re
ligiously kept 1" ktkod Mr. Frank Evans,
coulfy walking info the midst of the dis
cussion, wilh his dark hair tossed about
by the wind, and his hazel eyes sparkl
ing archly.
"Secret !" repented Mrs. Evans, ener
getically wiping Ler dim specticlc glasses.
"Why Minnie is determined to leave us
to morrow."
"Minnie !"
"I must, Frank, I have no right fur
ther to trespass on your kindness."
"No right, eh ? Minnie do you know
that the house has been a di2l-rcnt house
since you came into it ? lo you suppose
we want to loose our little sunbeam ?"
Minnie) smiled sadly, but bor hand felt
very cold aud passive in Frank's warm
grasp.
You'll sfr.y, Minnie ?"
"No." t'hebhook her head detcrmin
cd'y. "Then you must be made to stay," said
Frank. "I've missed something of great
value lately and I hereby arrest you on
suspicion of the theft !"
"Missed something !'' Minnie rose,
and turned red and white. "Oh, Frank,
you can never suspect mc !"
"Put I. do suspect yott. la fact, I am
quite sure tbe article is in your possession.'
"The article !"
"My heart, Miss Minnie ! Now look
here; I love you, Minnie Harlan, and I
will be a good and true husband to you.
Stay, be my wife I"
oc minnie Harlan, instead of going out
as governcs:s, according to the programme,
married tbe dark-haired clerk in tho Eil
son's Express Office.
They were very quietly married, early
in the morning, and Frank took Minnie
home to his mother, an 1 then went calm
ly about his business in the wire cage,
under the circlet cf gaslights.
"Evans :-'
"Yes, sir."
Frank, vnth Ins pon behind his car as
of yore, quietly obeyed the behest of the
gray-beaded official.
"Yes, s:r I remember Ler."
A tall, silver-haired gentleman hero in
terposed with eager quickness :
"Where is she ? I am her uncle 'Wal
ter Ifarriiigtrn. I Lave just returned
from Paris when tbe news of her arrival
reached mc ! I want her ; she is tho only
relative left me 1"
"Ah ! but, sir," said Frank, "yoa can't
have her."
"Can't have her ? "What do you mean ?
Has anythiug bappenod ?"
'Ye, sir, something has happened ;
Miss Harlan was married thia taorning."
Walter Harrington started.
"Take me to her," be said hoarsely. I
can't be parted from my own relative for
a mere whim."
"I wonder if he calls tho marriage ser
vices aud wedding ring mere whim?,"
thought Lonest Frank ; Lut he obeyed in
silence.
"Minnie," said tho old man, in falter
ing accents, "you will cJIiie to aio and be
the daughter of my old age ? I am rich,
Minnie, and you aro all I have ia tbe
world."
Put Minnie stole her arm through her
husband's arm.
"Dearest uncle, ho wa3 so kind to me
when I was most desolate and alone. I
cannot leave my husband, undo Waiter
I love him !"
"Then you must both of yon come and
be my children," said the old man, ilog-

gcdly. "And you must come now, for
the great house is lonely as a tciub."
Frank Evans is no longer aa express
clerk, and pretty Miunio moves ia velvet
and diamonds ; but they are quite as bap
py as they were in the old days, and that
is saying enough. Uncle Walter Har
rington grows older and feebler cveiy day,
and Lis two children are the Euushiue of
his declining life.

paws, which I had doctored with salve mads
out of "treason made clious," and bound
