Oae ru!trj, suddj aflernooa ia
May "there nigbt bare been" ia a
larKcsizd room ia aa unpretentious
baildiog at Xottiog nil!, England, a
goodly crowd of artists, many young
and lew old, that constituted the
committee of the "Society of
Water-Colors" not the society whose
movements are chronicled with so
much interest by all the art journals
of Great Brilian, bit a little, simple
minded society composed ol amataera
and young artists, with one or two
veteran to give it backlion.
At the time our story opaos they
were sitting in judgment on the
pictures sent in for their amatl ex
hibition, and they looked critical and
grave, as benttedtbeirtasK. Inroogn
the bilf open door glimpses could be
cangbt of several anxious ones in the
reception-room waiting to know their
fate. The talk bummed on among
the committee, and at last the fiat
went forth all the pictures were to
be accepted. To this one of the vet
erans a good-looking man of thirty
Gve objected.
"There is one really too abominably
bad," said be. That 'bcene from
Macbeth; it would never do to have
that ".
"0 come, Stretton, you're too par
ticular. It will pass muster among
the rest"
No, it won't; it will be a disgrace
to the exhibition. Just look at Mac
betb'sleg! and the color perfectly
raw! it wilt never do.
So the hum began again, aod the
result was that the "Scene from
Macbeth" was Iittcrally and figura
tively turned face to the wall.
Stretton, satisfied at having saved
the bonr of the society, left the
others lo settle the remaining busi
ness, and was walking out of the
room, when he came face to face
with Boggs, a good natared little
amateur, who could not draw "any
more than a froar what hasn't got no
tail," but was immensely conceited,
to make op for it. Ue caught at
Stretton eagerly.
I say, old lellow, yon ve done it!
You know that picture yon insisted
upon turning out: Weil, it was
painted by a young girl, and she
was in the next room and beard every
ord that yon said, and bas gone
home crying ber eyes out"
"Urueorge!" exclaimed Mretton,
looking dismayed, "I'm awfully
sorry. 1 woman I nave naa u nap
pen' fr the world. Poor little
thing! Confound my atupidity! I
might have known beetter. What
shall I do? Where U the pxture?"
"She's taken it home with her,"
said little Boggs.
"What an infernal idiot I was!',
went on Stretton. "Poor little girl !
I say, Boggs, you're going my way.
Suppose we lay our heads together
and eee what can be done ?"
"Very good," said lit tie Boggs.
Toe walk was not a very long one,
and our two friends did not loiter,
yet tbey evidently accomplished
something, for when tbey pined,
wbtre their paths diverged. Stretton
said : "Then you'll do it tomorrow,
old fellow !"
And little Boggs replied: "I will,
and repjrt to you afterward."
Tbe next morning, as the "poor
little girl" pat painting away in a
earner of her sit iog room, wbild ber
mother dozed and crocheted aod la
mented tbe days when Mr. Grierson
wa alive, and ther did not have to
live in lodgings, ibe dingy, over
grown servaat-eirl announced a gen
lie man to sec Miss Urierson, and
Mrs. Grierson fled to the adjoining
bedroom, despite ber daughter's as
surance that 'her drens was all right,"
as little Biggs entered looking very
much as if be wished be bada'i
come.
Mies Griersoa remembered his
fat, and tbe thought of ber rejected
tiiciure made ber tnrn hot and cold
together.
Little Boggs introduced b imself,
and plunged in median res: "I'm
awrully sorry, Miss Grierson, that
you beard what was said yesterday,
and I "
' It is a matter of no eoosequeoce
at all" interrupted Miss Oner jo,
with as much withering calmness as
liftKoir lint Botrwa bad called Her
picture "abommally baa.
"Well, but yout know. Miss Orier-

One evening, at a little dinner

beard tbat Stretton was ill and ia

in art ; it was a great pity, he was
such a good fellow ; something mint

Tbe fact was that Stretton was too
true an artist to become a tradesman

and scorned all tricks thofe tricks

by oo means a failure, and people

Hia acquaintance witS oar heroine

beauty made her generally admired ;

fie first made cautious inquiries re
lating to the young man's business
standing, all of which were answer
ed satisfactorily. Bat this did not
satisfy him. Accordingly be par
chased a suit ot clothing so different
from that which he was accustomed
to wear, tbat with a pair of green
goggles superadded he felt convinced
tbey would disguise bim sufficiently
for his purpose. Thus attired he
lounged into tbe store, and inquired
for some trifling article. He was
purposely very slow in being suited.
Meanwhile he watched with some at
tention tbe bearing of Fitzroy, who
was trading witb'a fashionably dress
ed lady at a little distance.
Nothing could be more polite or ob
seqaions than the conduct of the
yenng tradesman. With on wearied
assiduity be took dowo from the
shelves and displayed a large stuck
of merchandize, nntil the fastidious
taste of the lady was at length
suited.
"He s attentive to his customers,"
thonght Uncle Henry. "That is a
good sign. But perhaps he may be so
ermply because the is rich and fash
ionable. Here's a customer of a dif
ferent kind. Let me see bow be treats
her."
At this moment a woman very
pjorly dressed, with a worn and wea
ry expression, aa u sbe were better
acquainted with tbe dark than
the bright side of life, entered the
street door and advanced to the coun

tbe last customer disappeared, and la
its place was seen the supercilious
glaoce.
"I would like to look at soma cali
coes," said the customer.
"Here are some," said Fitzroy,
curtly, pointing to a pile which lay
upon the counter.
He did not stir from bis position,
but gszed at tbe woman with an air
that seemed to indicate how utterly
indifferent he was to her patronage
"Will yoa show me some of tbem?"
asked the woman, mildly.
"There tbey are, ma'am ; yoa can

Hera Uncle Henry, who had lis
tened with indignation to this scene,
interfered. ,
"You are mistaken," taid he de
cidedly. "I saw yoa hand this lady
ber change, and yoa passed aer bat
two quarters."
Fitzrey glanced at the speaker. It
bas not been mentioned tbat Uncle
Henry, the better to conceal his iden
tity, was coarsely dressed, and accord

"Good-morning, air," said Incle
Henry, abrnbtly. "Yoa may here
after regret this gratuitous insult.
Madam will yoa allow me a word
with yoa ?"
Tbe womaa followed him out of
tbe shop, while Fitzroy in no very
pleasant mood muttered about tbe
"airs of these beggars."
"Madam," said Loclemory, when
they were in the street, "will you ac
cept from me this piece of gold which
will in a measure atone for this man s
rudeness and your loss ? Nar, no
thanks ? What I have witnessed bas
been worth more to me than the small
um."
At tbe end of the month Edward
Fitzroy came to receive Julia Den
ham's answer to his suit. He fell
quite confident of success a confi
dence which was somewhat diminish
ed by the coldness with which she
retnrned his greeting.
"But what can have wrought tLia
change in you ?" he asked, his count
enance changing-.
"I must refer you io my ancle."
Uncle Henry, who entered tbe
room immediately, explained in a
few words io what way they had
gained ao unfavorable impreysioo of
his character. He concluded by say
ing "Tbe man wbo is obeequias to the
rich and impertinent to tbe poor,
shall not, witb my consent, mtrry

A year afterward Jalia formed aa

they bear the unsteady step of a

to tyranize over a child ? I have
very little respect for tbe man who

Why they say tbe children tell lies.

tyranny ia the father of lies. Sup

Think of a member ot the Ex

yer beating hia own fleh and blood
for evading the truth. Think of a
dealer in stocks punishing his child
for setting atloat falre reports. What
an inconsistency! Think of it! If
yoa should hereafter whip your child
1 wish yoa would have a photograph
taken when yoa are doing it, with
brows corrugated with anger, cheeks
red witb wrath, and tbe little ehild
shrinking, trembling, crouching, beg
