Obit ONLY - BOARDER;
' BY S. ANNIE. FROST.
" uppose we take boarders," Meta sag
k) gested. "We own the house and
don't want to :sell it. But • as. we can
neither eat it, nor wear it we must do
something for food and. Clothing."
"But," I _said, "there are only three
rooms we could spare for boarders."
"All double rooms!" .
"Well;" .1 said, "we will try it." •
". So we put an advertisment in the 'pa
per, we swept, dusted and scoured till
the house fairly shone ; we told Margaret,
our servant, that when we tilled the house
she should have a half-grown girl to As
sist her, and we waited. .
We were 'not actually starving—oh,
whn'were we ? Well, I was Mrs. Arm
strong, aged forty, recently widowed.
Meta was my step-sister, orphaned in
infancy, and the inmateof out home for
her whole lifetime. Philip—my 'late
husband and myselt, giving her all the
love we would have given children of our
Own,- had we. been blessed with • them.
But all my babies died in infancy. •
Our house was the sole inheritance
from our father, and • Philip had left me
a very nitrrow income, barely sufficient
for the simplest lood. For Philip—an
amiable, good man, loveable beyond de
.scription, was one of those unfortunate
people "who never getalong." He.had
tried so many schemes, so many varieties
of Liisin'ess, that I fairly shuddered - at
every new ventur,-; , :but he died a poor
min, Meta was. , jabt eighteen when- we
faced the 'world together, but already her
life's romance begun, and in tribulation:
The story vas brief: Gerald Wharton
had been a partner in Philip's tlast ven
tpre, the failure of which, in spite of re
peated 6xperiences of the same, kind,
roke his heart. Gerald was' 'a young
man, twenty-three or_ four, with crisp,
auburn curls, great boyish, brown eyes;
A i l eeth like milk, strong and even, tall,
broad of shoulder, and full of ambition.
man to ‘take captive any. woman's
heart, and he had taken Meta's ; making
a fair bargain by giving his own in ex
change. •
But-'was there ever, a love aflair with
out abut-Gerald was wholly depenant
upon his uncle, a 'peppery individual who
lived in Albany and who was furious at
the failure of castle in ,the
at the. money -lost therein. and at the
further effort, as ,he deemed it, to entrap
his handsome heir, into a match with a
"penniless ` girl.
Ite wrote a most -angry letter to Meta,
and Meta answered in' the same spirit.
She begged leave to. inform Mr. John
Wharton she had givenffection
, her a-
to his, nephew only after most ardent
pleading, and that she 'had no desire to
hold him to any promi'se made to her
• that would, enforce hie- uncle'_ threat of
disinheriting, him.: She is was incapable
ot towing dissension in any family, and
she :authorized Mr. Wharton to tell Ger
ald that she Would-never be his wife,tin
leSs uncle .hipself requested her to
„
rtnew her engagement.
srlien.she wandered .about the house
for :'two weeks, pale and dispirited; sent
hick all. Gerald's letters unagswered,
told me - ber loTir' should never reproach
her, with having beggared him, and
mourned heilove like the tender-hearted
maiden she was,. until Philip's long ill
ness` and ;death "drew her out: Of herself,

to me, she VirgOt her own misery in. a
