HOW THEY MANAGED.
Tack your things as soon as yon
plea.-, niy dear," said Mr. Chesnfy.
-We're going to move Saturday."

silent partner in the same.
If ever I pet married." said Elma, a
liright eyed girl of 17. "I won t be put

here, my dear." a.siea -Mrs. cnes-
nev with a little start.
"Into the country," said the family
antm-rat. Tm tired of this city busi
ness, it costs a gnat deal more than it
comes to. l':n told yon can live at half
the expense in the country."
"But," gapped the wife, "what is to be
come of the children's education?"
"There's a very good district school in
the neighborhood, not more than a mile
distant," explaim-d her husband, "and
exercise will do them good."
"And what are we to do for society?"
Pshaw r said Chesney, "I would not
give a rap for peoplu who can't In? soci
ety for thi mst-lves. There'll be the house
work to do, you know nobody keeps a
girl in the country and plenty of chores
about the place fur Will and Spencer. I
sliail keep a horse if I can get one cheap,
for the station is half a mile from the
place, and I've bargained for a couple of
cows and some pigs."
Meanwhile Mr. Chesney explained to
his wife the various advantages which
were to cccrue from the promised move.
"It's unfortunate," said he, "that Elma
and Kosie aren't boys. Such a lot of
women folks are enough to swamp any
family. Men now c;m always earn their
bread. But we must try to make every
body useful in some way or other. It's
so healthy, you know," added he. "And
the rent won't be hulf of what we pay
here."
"Are there any modern conveniences
about the placer' timid'y impaired Mrs.
Chosuey.
"There's a spring of excellent water
about a hundred yards from the house,"
said her bus!m 1.
Mrs. Chesney grew pale.
"Have I got to walk a hundred yards
for every drop of water I want?" hiiid sue.
"And a large rainwater hogshead un
der the eaves of the house," added Mr.
Chesnev. "And I've already
it a
bar
gain iu kerosene liunjis. As for candles.
I am given to understand that good j
housek-v?rs make Via themselves in tin j
, molds. There's nothing like economy. ;
Now I 1o beg to know, Abigail," he j
mlded irritably, "what yon are looking '
60 lackadaisical alxnit? 1 you expect j
to sit still and fold your hands while I '
do all the work? Give me a woman for
bheer natural laziness!"
The first sight of Mulleinstalk farm
was dispiriting in the extreme. Between
rock and swamp there was scarcely
pasture for the two lean cows that Mr.
Chesney had bought at a bargain, and
the hollow backed horse which stidked
abont the premises like some pliantoiu
Bucephalus.
The apple trees in the orchard were
three-quarters dead, and leaned sorrow
fully away from the east winds, until
their boughs touched the very ground,
fences had all gone to ruin and the front
gate was tied cp with a hemp string.
"Is this home?" said Elma, with an in
describable intonation in her voice.
"Well get things all straightened tip
after awhile," said Mr. Chesney, bustling
to drive away the pigs, which had brt kea
out of their pen and were squealing dis
lually tinder the window.
Mrs. Chesney cried herself to sleep that
night and awakened the next morning
with every bone instinct with shooting
pains.
"And no wonder," said Spencer;
"there's a foot of water in the cellar."
"We must have it drained." said Mr.
Chesney, with an uneasy hok; "but
there's plenty of things to do first."
And now legan a reign of the stricb-st
economy. Mr. Chesney himself paid fur
everything with checks, and not an arti
cle came into the house or went out of it
ithout his cognizance. Xew dresses
were frowned uiou; spring bonnets were
strictly interdicted; orders were issued
that old carjiets should be reversed, and
broken dishes repaired with cement and
quicklime.
"Save, save, save! that is the chief
thing." he kept relating bri.kly. Wom
en folks can't earn; they should try their
best to save."
"Boys," fluttered Rosie "I've an idea.
Mary Peuu, who lives on the next frm.
you know, came over to see Elma and
me yesterdr.y. Fajia is earning his living:
well earn something too."
"I should like to know how," muttered
Spencer. "1 might hire out somewhere
if it wasn't for that v retchinl old horse,
and the pigs, and the wood chopping,
mid"
"Oil, but there is something that won't
interfere with the chores, nor with
school." s;tid cheerful little Rosie. "Just
listen all I ask of yon is to iirtcn."
And the weeks grew into months, at: J
the red leaves eddied down into little
swirls from the maple trees, and "pig
killing time" came, and with the aid of a
lame, one eyed man Mr. Chesney laid
down his own su-ck of. pork and sau
sages, with the sense of being triumph
antly economical.
The family had left off complaining
now. Apjiarently they were resigned to
their doom. But there were some tilings
that Mr. Chesney could not explain at all.
A new rug brightened tip the dismul
Lues of the parlor carjtet; Rosie hal a

black velvet bars: Elma's fall jacket
was edged with substantial black fur,
and grand climax of extravagance
Mrs. Chesney had a new shawl in place
f the old garment which had been her
mother's before her.
He looked at the housekeeping books
with renewed vigilance. He consulted
the stulis of his checkltook with a uotice
that nothing could escape.
I don't know bow tiny man
age t." said lie, scratching his noe with
a lead jieucil tliat he always carried. "I
liate mysteries, and I mejin to be at the
bottom of this before I am an hour older.
"Abigail." said lie, "how is tliis? I've
given you no money: you'e long kft off
asking for money. How have you man
aged to snnuten yourself and" the chil
uren up so? I wn"t be cheated by my
own wife."
Elma sat down the pitcher which she
wss wiping and came aud stood liefore

e-araed ourselves."
Mr. Chesney stared st the girl with in
credulous eyes.
"And if you don't ldieve it come and
si bow," said Elrua, flinging down her
toF-eh "Mary Penn showed ns. She
told us everything and gave us the firt

"And mamma is coming to live with

But Mrs. Chesney did not go to the

"Xor I either," said Elma. "And, oh,
mamma, 1 shall always love those bee

Mrs. Cnesney tearfully kissed her

THE ART STUDENT.
I've had some inter-sting erjieriences,
I can tell you. It's not a bad life, on the
whole, but et first it Used to be very an
noying in some ways. To legin with,
they planted me down in such a draft
and in the worst light pos-ible. so that I
could not see anything, nor could any
one s.-e me, and then they would not
give me a new jx-destal they tried to
palm off on mo one that belonged to a
discarded Nereid, which made me look
top heavy, as it was much too small.
However, one day a waiter, who was
rushing jost with a soup turw-u (it was
when I stood close to the door of the re
freshment r.xi:i iu the. gallery, you
know), tumbled up against m and
smashed a great piece of the pedestal.
Afterward, when every one had gone and
the place w:is quiet. I just leaned over to
one side a bit and siid down. Hurt ray
sTlf? Oh. dear, uol I chipiied my lyre
rather. There was a f u.ss next morning
when the curator came rouu.L. That
waiter got into no end of a row and h;id
to pay for my new pedestal and lyre. It
was a pity I coui.lu't explain, but he was
a poor fool, and I wasn't sorry to see- him
sacked for bis disrespectful clumsiness.
There was a little student who came
to draw here, a little bit of a thing, with
a sallow f.ice and a slight limp. She was
idways shabby. Her gloves (one button
black kid) were very much cracked. She
wore battered black straw hat which
hud outlived the picturesque stage, with
a wreath of limp, streaky ros-s round
the crown, even in midwinter. Her
dress, such as it was. was gray linsr-y,
and her poor little sijuare toed boors
were patched and repatched. The only
points alxmt her were her clean collar
and her big, hungry eyes. Sho worked
for the gr.llery, and I heard her say she
gives lessons. I know the jay is very
small, localise she doesn't have half
enough to eat. and she certainly cannot
aff-Td to ride or drive, because on rainy
days her feet are so rutddy. She has
very little talent. It is only by dint of
sheer obstinacy she manages to draw de
cently. Some time ago a young man came here
pretty frequently for several months.
He's a Cue, handsome fellow, very like
that sturdy Discobtilus you see straight
in front of you. By Jupiter! that boy
can draw! I could Ml he had it m liiiu
the first time I saw him handle a crayon.
The little lame student was passing liim
one day, loosing more tired than ever,
and she tripped over the edge of a bar
rier that had Ix-un put to screen off the
Laocoou family, who were undergoing
repairs, when down went everything
with a clatter, including the poor little
soul herself. The other student, wlioiu
I will call "The Boy" for distinction.
was r.p in a moment, had put her on he i
feet again, and picked cp till the dis
persed article with a reassuring "All
right !" lfore you could ejaculate "Ma
cury." She pulled herself together enough
to whisper "Thank you," and limited
away.
Next day she came early and worked
assiduously. The Boy was there too. He
d;d rot notice her, he was so busy. Pres
ently be felt a timid pull at his sleeve
and looked up. "ilulio," he s'ii l, with
that sunny smile of his; "I Kg your
par.Icn, can I tlo anvtmna for vou?"
"W-wor.ld you 1-1-lct me look at your
drawing: she faltered.
"Certainly, but there is nothing to see
Well, they chatted a bit after that and
compared i. tes till the ice was fairly
broken, so the time flew and the little
gray student found she had forgetten all
aooni i::ai tiresome loot ot tae Jicrnios
which wouldn't come right. After that
day they conversed pretty f reel v. Mean
while I noticed a great change in her
though she still looked pinched and tired
her eyes began to have a new light ia
them, the white collar was discarded fur
a black lace ruffle, the poor tired rosr-s
disappeared too. and ia their place I no
ticed a large black feather, wuich, it is
true, soon lost its curl and had certainly
seen better days, but still she thought it
looked smart, and that cheered her, poor
little soul. The gloves, too, were new,
or else she had managed to ink over the
purple cracks.
Some days she was there alone, ami
then she would look wistfully from time
to time toward the door. Once, when a
step came swinging down the corridor,
she gave a little start, but it was only an
attendant, who was a conceited ass with
nothing to do, and he came in and bnl
Iied her and made himself perfecth- odi
ous. I would have set my dog at 'him.
only fortunately the Boy turned r.p at
the right moment and sent the wretch
flying. I couldn't resist whispering to
my Venus what a smart fellow he was,
and she nodded approvingly.
When these two got tired of work the
Boy would sit and talk to her by the
hour together. Sometimes it was art.

"So yoa don't think much of him?" she
said reproachfully.
"No. Why shonta I:" said the Boy.
"But he hi a philosopher and a great

The Boy looked straight into her eyes.
"But he didn't know you, sweetheart,"
he said, putting a s trong arm round her.
Don't you kuow by this time that for
me ail art, all tifv-ledgc, all philosophy

There was a tremulous silenoefor afew
minutes. Only Venus and I heard the
det, quirk bn aths coming from the hud
dled little figure concealed behind a pil
lar. The Boy and the fair girl passed
out, she leaning on l.is arm and looking
half roguishly, half tenderly up to him.
It was then that I looked around for
the little gray student. She seeined
stunned. After a minute she pushed
hack her easel, rose to her feet and came
forward, groping with her hands in a
blind, bewildered fashion, then fell prone
at the foot of the Venus. And the sun
shine flickered lovingly down on. the
shabby, gray linsy and the rich mosaics

Some one came in a few hours later

No, I don't blame the boy. It wasn't

he was as sympathetic as the tenderest

HOW I DIED.
I was very .sick. I Lad laid for days
that seemed vears upon the rack of such
pain as only strongmen, suddenly broken
upon the wheel, mav know, tvery bone
In my bod-, every nerve, every minute
md of corporeal tissues had been like
electric wires aud cells surcharged with
ethereal agr.ny. At last there had come
a Icnviml'ed feeling that thrilled like the
ril rationof harp strings suddenly stilled.
I could hear the hum of voice's like the
far off drone of liecs, and the sound
seemed soothing me into a strange peace.
I was aware that somebody passed a
light before my eyes, and after repeating
the action several times replaced the
night lamp on the stand without the
thade. 1 knew also that somebody stepped
to the window and threw it wide open,
while a voice, seemingly borne beyond,
the confines of space and gathering force
as it approached the boundaries of auric
ular demonstration until it boomed like
the deep bass of the sea, uttered these
words:
"The poor fellow is going fast Give
Lis spirit a char.ee to free itself."
"lo yon Kiieve ia that old woman
rot?" asked another, an! from the re
gion of enchanted drowsiness where I
seemed to linger I caught myself listen
ing for the third voice, which I se-emed
to know would speak next. And I didn't
listen iu vain, for even while I struggled
with the unseen ftrce-s that were hurry
ing me away a woman's voice, clear and
strong and sweet as the notes of a bell
that was forever ringing in my ear, said:
"We beiieve in God"s mercy, and we
believe that tliis poor pain racked body is
about to throw open the dtxr by which
the spirit goes free; if a closed window
hinder its going, we will throw every
window in the old hospital as wide as
the sky."
"And give the rest of the poor devils
in the ward a chance to catch a mortal
cliiil," resjtonded the second voice. "You
are as consistent as the rest of your sex.
Miss Brady!"
While yet the echo of the head doctor's
voice beat the air in circles of receding
sound, I suddenly ceased to think, to
hear, to feel, to be. And yet I was. I
knew by some newly developed sense
that I lay mute and white upon the cot
which had supported my Ixxly so long,
and that the fragrance of a praye-r floated
throngh the awful stillness of the room.
It had no form nor sound, and yet some
thing within me perceived it, as the lan
guid senses perceive the fragrance of
newly mown hay upon a serene June
morning.
A continuous pageant of the most se
raphic vision unfurled in endless progres
sion before me. I saw the green hills of
my childhood's home lift themse lves like
emerald bubbles in a haze of euchanted
air. I saw the sapphire of the sea set in
a rim of violet dawns and daffodil noons.
I saw the stretch of desert sands like
drift3 of snow within the compass of a
lonely land. And in the midst of their
bewildering vision I suddenly saw a
gleaming slab within a windowless room,
where something long and white and
still was lying. Drops of " r were form
ing on the edges of the slab, and a death
cold strc-am was purling across its shin
ing surface. Something that was not a
voice, and which made itself manifest to
me through other channels than the ear,
spoke lightly of the grave wherein I
soon should lie.
"We will bury him tonight," it seemed
to say. "there wiil be no friends to in
terfere, and there are tco many dying
these few days past to keep 'btiffs' over
a half day."
"But the law grants even a "stiff its
rights." responded the womanly voiJe I
had learned to know, "we have no
right to bury him with such indecent
Lastc"
"Right or no right, law or no law.
Lei! have to get out of this tonight," re
plied the first voice.
The contention liad no effect upon the
something within my ice bound frame
which still held its mysterious connec
tion with sentient liie. That fibinient.
fine as the gossamer shred by which the
spider binds together the ether and the
rase, secme-d an electric, wire charged
with messages from an unseen worl.L
1 could hear the rise and fall of angelic
choruses, like the dip of sougfnl seas,
r.ud clear arid sweet and distine?t, above
them all, I heard the woman's voice 1
learned from out the cold embrace of
death to nofe.
"He shall not be lmrid tonight, nor
yet tomorrow, if that flush continues on
Lis face."
"What flush are yon talking about?"
responded the doctor, bringing the light
he carried nearer the face that lay upon
the marble tlab. where the ice dros
were, forming, crystal by crystal, like the
beads one threads upon a growing strand.
"Why, the flush we both have noticed
since W9 stood here. I knew by the in
tent gaze you bestowed upon what gen
erally demands but a passing glance that
yon discovenwl it when 1 did, and I dv
tnand that thi! body be removed to the
ward until we investigate the case."
'That flush is only the reflection of
your red dress," laughed the doctor.
"You are wasting time," said the
nure. "1 s!ia:l call a stretcher to carry
this living man out of the morgue. Aft
erward we may resume our conversa
tion." "You shall do nothing of the sort," re-plie-d
the doctor, placing Ids hand an he
spoke upon the outstretched arm of the
curse with compelling force. "Yon have
Made a f.iol f yourself over this fellow
from the Crst. N.tt a h.tngvr on in the
ward but what n' it iced vour interest in
his l.ondWne face. You are lound to me
by ties you cannot break, and rather than
ie? you under the enchantment of this
fellow again 1 sii-iplv will smother the
feeble pulj of life that lingers in his
vc-ius and make a surety ef his death."
1 on may lie a villain, but vou are not
a coward. Dr. Ware," replied the woman,
whose hand he still heli "To refuse to
give this man the chance to "live would
be the most despicable act of your life,
and, so help me God, I will denounce
you as a murderer before the first justice
I can tmd if you do not instantly sum
mon assistance and remove this body
from this place."
Not so fast, mv dear. Every mo
ment's delay extinguishes more and more
the thanee f or life, and if the attendants
we shall summon find a dead man on
the slab who will believe your hysterical
story ia the fiee of my statement that no
sign e.f life existed? Women nurses are
not in favor just at present with the
board: they are too sensational, too erao-
Bonai, loo indiscreet. lour oravaao
will eventuate only in your own dis
grace." With the bound of a cat, the nurse,
while he waa yet speaking, broko from
the doctor's detaining bold and reached
the door. Ouick as thought she opeaod
it and flew down the long corridor.
Shall the future eternities hold for ine
another moment fraught with such pain
as thrilled thy tortured limbs when the
doctor's malignant face bent above my
sealed eyes, and although conscious of a
vast reserve power I felt myself un
able to move the lightest member or kft,
by a single Lair's weight, the closed lids?
I felt his fingers press the delicate anato
my of my throat, and I knew that be
was set-king to throttle the little life left
in my body. Every drop of blood be
came a spear of flame to thrust my quiv
ering flesh, and the effort I made togtoan
started what seemed to me to be show
ers of hot blood from every pore.
The sound of hurrying feet and clam
oring voices staid the doctor's hand
before its full purpose was accomplished,
and raising himself from his sitting pos
ture he greeted the newcomers with a
brisk: "Hurry up, boys! I thought Miss
Brady had fallen asleep on the way.
Lift this fellow up quickly and carry
him to the ward. He is good for a long
lease of life yet."
I never knew how the doctor and Miss
Brady adjusted their quarrel. Both re
tained their respective positions for
some time after my recovery to health
and removal to a western city, where a
stroke of long delayed good luck reknit
the raveled edge of my finances and
placed me above want.
Miss Brady finally resigned her posi
tion at my suggestion and joined me in
my western home as my beloved wife.
