In one hand she held a bunch of ivy trails; from the other the shears dangled. Her profile, sharply outlined agaiust the ruddy caruiiuu of the sunset, was exquisitely pure and delicate ; her blue eye were full of dreamy fire. Old Peggy, from her position in front of the kitchen table, looked sharply up. "Well," said she, briskly setting aside the pan of baked apples that she had taken from tho oven for tea, "I can tell you why, Miss Chrissy, It was because you hadn't money enough to keep oil living in the city since the Barbazon Bunk failed, and because this old stoue house that belonged to your dead-end-gone grand-uncle was standing empty. House rent is house rent, and there's lots of nice fruit and vegetables in the garden, though I wou't say but it's beeu sadly neglected, and the air can't be beat. Of course it's a bit dull for you young ladies " but beggars cau't bo choosers, you know, and Miss Bosamond amuses her self with the chickens and the ducks, bless her heart ?" Tho sudden flush rose angrily to Christine's satin-soft cheek. "We are not beggars yet," said she. "And as for Bosamond, she never had a soul above a scullery maid." "What's that you're saying about Bosamond?" cried a gay young voice, xns u tall, brown-haired girl came in, witli spanning Hazel eyes, cheeks reddened with exercise, and an apron ful of nuls.

Only look, Chris! Aren't they beauties?" "Nuts!" scornfully uttered Chris tine, vouchsafing only a single gluuce at the treasures, and turning away her face toward th. red sunset glow. "What on earth are you going to do wththem?" "Do with 'em?" echoed Bosamond. "Why, crack 'em, to-be-sure I And then pick-'em out, and then I shall make some nut cookies!" Christine shrugged her shoulders. "I beg leave to amend my verdict," said she. "I should have eaid that Bosamond had the eoul of a cook I" Boeamond glanced toward the cellar etepe, down which old. Peggy bed, disappeared, "You know, Chris," said she, lower ing her voice, "that Teggy is getting stifTer and more rheumatic every day, and wo must do something to help her. Mamma know nothing about tho housework ; and, besides, she is far too delicate to como down here !" "I prefer some other way of occupy ing my time," said Christine, super ciliously. "Yes, but what?" Rosamond had reached down the hammer, and wa now balancing the broad end of a smoothing-iron in her lap, preparatory to the operation of cracking. "We have been educated for Indies," said Christine, "and not cooks!" "Are tho two incompatible, Chris?" "And I am fully resolved one day to be an artist. A lotidscapist, to im mortalize just such scenes as that 1" pointing with slim, taper finger to ward the burning glow in tho west. "Yes, but in the meantime?" dryly observed Bosamond. "We must live, and wo must eat. And really I've made rather a good thing of those Brahma chickens, at thirty-five cents a pound, while your picture of 'Wynd Mill iu a Thunderstorm' still hangs in 'ihe bookseller's window, and not a soul has so much as asked its price. " Christine colored again. "I prefer to retain my position in society as a lady 1" said she, with some emphasis. "But we have no society." "We are asked to tho Thanksgiving party at Bramblethorpe !" exultantly retorted Christine. "We can't go!" averred Boeamond. "Why can't we go?" "Nothing to wear," Bosaniond suc cinctly answered, giving a sharp, sud den tap of the hammer to a plump nut on the edge of the flatiron. "How do you know that?" Bosamond lifted her eye in sur prise, and Christine went hurriedly on: "There was a traveling salesman hero this afternoon with Bonio lovely piuk cashmere, at little more than half prico.

"I wish you wouldn't go on crack crack cracking iu that sort of way !" querulously spoke Christine, spring ing down from her aerial perch in the high window seat. "It makes me so nervous !"

"I'm a goose!" thought tho girl. "And with all my grand ideas of hero ism and self-control, too!" And she compressed her lips n:i 1 worked harder than ever. "Nut cookies!" said old Mrs. Edge ley, Colonel Bramble's aunt, as she hobbled into Peggy's kitchen, leuuing on a gold-headed cane, like the fuiry godmother iu story. "Well, I .1 -vlsre I How nice they look !" "Yee'm nut cookie," complacently , affirmed Peggy, moving forward the pan with nwdest prido. "Hero one, I Mrs. Edgeley, won't you? It ain't none of your lard-and-molassesy bak er's stuff, that I can tell you I" "Never tasted anything so delicious in my life," said Mrs. Edgeley, nib bling away at tho cake with teeth that were still as white and perfect as when she was sixteen. "You don't mean to say, Peggy, that you made them?" "I, ma'm? Not I!" protested Peggy. "Not but what I call myself as good a hand at cake as most folks, but I'm freo to confess I hain't the light touch and the easy knack to stir np a batch like this. It's our Miss Bosamond that mado 'cm, Mrs. Edge ley, and I'm proud to say it, that I am !" Mrs. Edgeley' spectacled eyes grew big and round. Sho came a step or two noarer. "Peggy," said aim, in a mysterious whisper, "these are just what we want for our Thanksgiving party. Aurilla isn't much of a calculator, and I'm afraid we're going to run short on cake. Would yon sell me this batch? And would the young lady bake me another as a very special favor?" she added, insinuatingly. ' Peggy tossed her head. "W lon't buy nor sejj our cake," said she. But you're welcome to it, Mrs. Edgeley, and I'm sure my yonng lady will be very ydcased to accommo date yon." "Humph 1 humph!" commented Mrs. Edgeley. "Much obliged, I'm sure 1 I called in about that setting of Muscovy duck eggs, but I'll just take this baking of nut cakes instead. It's jnst exactly the sort of thing one wants for a Thanksgiving party. There's something homelike and home made about it. And I can have the rest day after to-morrow?" After Mrs. Edgeley hod hobbled away on her gold-headed cane, Peggy found a crisp, clean five-dollar bill lying on the table. She eyed it shrewdly. "It's no more than they're worth," said she. And she pocketed the bill. "Yes, Miss Bosy, I gin 'em every one away," said Peggy, craftily, "to a You can hear Thautsgiviu' comiu' with a rush an with a roar.

'You oughtn't to have done it with" out consulting me, Peggy, "said Bosa mond. But she was a soft-hearted little maid, and very fond of Peggy, and so she set diligently forth to gather nuts the next dav. Teggy knew where the traveling salesman put up at a wayside inn, kept by a friend of hers and sho lost no time in speeding thither. "Pink is Miss Chris's color," said she. "and I think Miss Bosamond I would look well in blue a pale, for- get-me-not blue. If there's oue new dress iu the family, there's no reason there shouldn't bo two. Only we've got to make haste Budget it mude up." Rosamond was overjoyed when the compact little browu paper parcel came home. "I'm quite certain Peggy knows all about it," said she, "though she wrups herself in mystery. But she's the best old soul iu the world, und she shu n t lose her reward when my ship comes iu ; that is, if it ever does." The afternoon preceding Thankt giving 1 ay she went up to Bramble thorpe with n pasteboard box iu her hand. Lizzie Bramble rau down stair to greet her. "Have you come to hid) us arrange the chrysanthemums and ivy?" said she. "Oh, 1 iu so glad to see vou ! "I couldn't possibly," said Bobii lnond. "My dress isn't done yet, and I've got to hurry home and finish it. But I've brought you some of my nut takes, Lizzie ; they're a Thanksgiving bort of thing, and I mado them after au old family receipt that no one h'ls but me. " "Nut cakes!" Miss Bramble sur veyed tho tempting show, wrapped in 1 a red-bordered dolly. "Why, Rosy, we've got a lot of 'em already that Aunt Edgeley bought! Beauties, tool You never mean that you made 'em, dear? Rosamond colored a hot scarlet. All of a sudden the mystery cleared itself. Sho knew now where the forget-me-not Iress ctnie from. one put down the box, withe murmured word or twrt and flew swiftly borne, 'J never can go to that perty now i' she sobbed to herself. "Oh, how could Peggy do such a thing? Of all things to sell my cako to tho Bramblethorpe people I What must they think?" "Oh, come now I" said Jack Bram blc, when the merry clamor of Black Sam's fiddle and Georgia Dick' cornet proclaimed tho opening dance on that merry Thanksgiving Eve, "if Bosa mond Collingwood isn't here, my cake's all dough." "It's a matter of cako, any way," said Fernanda Edgeley, satirically ; anil there was general giggle." "And the blue-eyed sister is here. Why can't you bo contented with that?" "Because 1 like Rosy the best," said Jack, with delightful frankness. "Thanksgiving isn't Thanksgiving if Rosy isn't here, and I'll tell you what, I menn to go after her !" And lie went. One solitary light shone in the wiu dows of the old stone house the win dows of Rosamond's room, where the poor little girl was crying her heatt out. All of a sudden a fearful face glared in a jack-o'lanteru pumpkin, with eyes of fire, elevated on the extreme end of a bean-pole. "Goodness me !" fluttered Rosa mond. "What's th t?,' And sho flung the sobh open. "It's me, Rosy!" bawled Jack. "Comedown here; I want you?" "What for?" "To como to tho Bramblethorpe party ! Come, make haste ! Dick aud Sam are in royal tune to-night, and the music hiiB commenced already." "I can't go!" murmured Rosa mond. '.Then I cau't !" said Jack. "I shall stay and spend the evening with you !" "Do take that horrible jack-o'-lantern away," pleaded Rosamond for all this time the pumpkin features and the flaming eyes were flattened agaiust her window-blind. "Not until I get nn answer," said Jack, the indomitable. "Go away!" said Rosamond. "I won't!" slid Jack. Suddenly the jack-o'-lantern coun tenance disappeared ; there wiw n crash. "Oh, Jack, you have fallen off the piazza roof! Oh," cried Bosaniond, wringing her hands, "what shall I do?" "No.it wusu't me," said Jack: "it was only the pumpkin. It wasn't bal anced just right ou the pole. Do yon suppose that I go around peeping into people's windows? Como down, Rosy, I say!" This time Rosamond did not repeat her formula of "Go away 1" Hie came dow n in th j blue dross, a white, fleecy shawl wrapped around her head. "How nico you loo'. !" seid admir ing Jack. "Oct your hat. Come!" "Never !" asseverated Bosamond. "Oh, very good!" said Jack. "Then it's 'never' with me also !" "Never what?" Bosaniond looked puzzled. "Why, never to go away from here." "Jack!" "Darling, don't you uu.ler.staud?" said Jack, slipping his arm around her waist (there were only the peaceful stars to see them, and the red, blink ing eye of tho jn-'k-o'-luutern, smould ering away in the box borders). "I cau't bo happy except where you are. I love yon, Rosy. I want you to bo my wife !" "Oh, Jack,"shu faltered, "I never thought of that!" Aunt Edgeley, in ruby velvet anl barbaric pearls, was "matrouizing" tho Philadelphia beauty whom ths Bramblethorpe people intended for Jack. Miss Melliter, of Melliter Fsrk, kept a sharp lookout from a pair of diamond bright eyes for the young heir ; ami Christine Collingwood, looking like r. pink rose iu her new gown, was also on tho qui vive when the door swung open, and Jack filtered, leading a fair damsel in blue, w ho hung back, after a shy, pretty fashion. "Mother," he said, going straight to the head of the room- "Aunt Edgeley this is the future Mrs, Jack Bramble ! This is my promised w ife. Givo her such a welcome to Braiublt thorpo ss she deserves. Dick, where is your cor net? Sain, what are you waiting for? Come ! Thanksgiving is going to com mence iu real earnest now!" The elders were considerably aston ished, but.

The Indian Ha Not Proved a Very Good Soldier Lured Into Service by the Charm ef Brass Buttons. fy OMJ'AN'Y, attention !" I f Tho long line of copper J colored soldiers present a unique and picturesque ap pearance. Tho straight-cut regular army jacket, trousers that are a com promise between the native garment and the "garments of the line," met at the kueo by buckskin leggings ; on the head a cloth of red muslin or calico in a band and tied tightly behind, loav ing the crown of raven hair completely exposed. This is tho Apache soldier of the United States regular army on duty, says an Arizona correspondent of tho San Francisco Chronicle. The Indian troops of tho Depart ment of Arizona are recruited solely from the various tribes of tho Apache Nation, and are in nowise similar to the Indian police forco of tho Sioux or other Indian tribes. They are regu larly enlisted for the full period of service, receive full pay, and are held strictly amenable to military disci pline. Their uniforms vary slightly from those ot tho other troops, re sembling a sort of Zouave equipment, a concession which the department found it necessary to make in order to satisfy some whims of tho aboriginal mind. The Indian is essentially narrow-minded and superstitious. Matters of dress which may be exceedingly triv ial in importance have to him some time an immense significance. Tho Apache problem has been a thorn in the side to the commanders of the Department of Arizona. There f re ten large tribes in the Territory, making nu aggregate of some 10,000 persons. Of all these, tho Apaches alone have given the Government any tronblo within tho past quarter of a century. They occupy a reservation iu the heart of the Territory larger than tho combined States of Massachu setts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Delaware; and their whole tribal pop ulation number less than 5000. There has not been a year since the white oc cupation that some Apuche renegade was not off the reservation, making life interesting for somo one, and a very few years have passed iu which the Government has not been called npou to quell a general outbreak. With tho end of the Gerouimo cam paign tho authorities adopted a now policy toward these iuiplacables and the formation of the Indian auxilaries is a pert of tho new programme. Gradually the more lowless chiefs have been vanquished until now there u hardly a corporal's guard of tho old warriors to be found in all the tribes which comprise the Apache Nation. Then supplementary proceedings were began by enlisting nil the able-bodied young bucks between the nges of six teen and thirty into regular companies. Under theso conditions with all the old men deported and all the young sters under the eyes of the regular soldiers -it is hoped that the solution of the Apache trouble is not far dis tant. While the question seems in a fair way to be Bettled with regard to tho Indian, tho new deal does not give universal satisfaction iu army circles. The soldiers do not take kindly to the change. At Fort Huachuea an in cipient mutiny was raised on the arrival of the red-skinned troopers. Regulars who have beeu for years fight ing tho wily Apache from behind locks cannot readily uccustom them selves to tho idea of messing and sharing quarters with their hereditary foe. The officers, as a rule, ure not very enthusiastic over the innovation either. Their general opinion is that the novelty will soon wear off with the recruits, and that eventually they will either desert, singly or en masse, or else at best, when their term of ser vice expires they will refuse re-enlistment and return home with their newly acquired knowledge and dis cipline to become more troublesome than ever. As to the merits of the Apache as a soldier he doesn't seem to have many. He can withstandan iucredibleamoiint of fatigue. A body of Apache infantry will make a forced inarch ill better time und cau arrive iu better lighting trim than the average regular cavalry. When the lino of battle is drawn up Mr. Apache is not there. From time immemorial the Apache warrior has fought only from ambush, and no amount of military discipline can com pel him to face a tire iu which he has no better chance than his enemy. The one thing which lures the In dian from the reservation into the army is his lovo of the uuiforiu. Ho cares more for bright colors slid ilt trappings thuufor his wife even more than he does for eating. The glitter ing epaulettes und shining buttons ir resistibly charm tho sav-ige eye. An Apache sergeant iu full regimental uui foriu is an object of the profoundest re-rcuce to everv main in his tribe und to the squaws he is a thing to be adored. Then they like the evolutions aud military mantetivref . Thev enjuv the luiisic, especially liveli and spir ited n nrtial air. The number of Indian' now sirving iu thin department is in the neighbor hood of five hundred. They are organ ized into companies of fifty nu ll, with white officers, though there have been some few promotion to minor irriw'cf. riiecoiupauies are not all full, however, by reason of occasional desertions and natural causes.
