BITLv'R. I A. FRIDAY, DEC: MBEK 12. li-90 HIS SECOND WIFE. "Well, I never!" said Miss Peggerell. "What is this world coining to?" "Much the same as it always was, I snp. pose," retorted Agatha Simplex. She was the village tailores*: a resolute, bright-eved woman of seven or eight and twenty. "I wouldn't have believed it, unless yon had told me with your own lips," said Miss Peggerell. dolefully. "Why not?" said Agatha. "It's jnst selling yourself —that's all." sniffed Miss Peggerell. "No. it's not," said Agatha Simplex, brusquely. "He's a very nice man." "He's twenty years older than you are." "Well," said Miss Simplex, "and what difference does that make? I'm solitary and alone in the world —and Mr. Mixsell is willing to give me a homo, and I respect him very highlj"—and I've no doubt we shall be very happy together." "Humph!" commented Miss Peggerell. Agatha turned sharply axoond. "What does that mea»?" said she. "Nothing," said Miss Peggerell. "Only he bullied his first wife into her grave." "He'll not bully me into mine," shrewd ly remarked Miss Simplex. "I'm not sure of that.'" "I am." "Well, at all events," added Miss Peg gerell, "you can't say you've not been fairly warned." "No, I wou't," said "Agatha Simplex, and she married Mr. Moses Mixsell before the moon was a fortnight older. "Mr. Mixsell was a very worthy member of society, bald-headed, double-chinned and rather spoiled, in consequence of al - having bad his own way. The late Mrs. Mixsell had been one of those meek, retiring littlo persons who never seem quite certain whether their sonls belong to themselves or to somebody else and there were those who, like Miss Peggerell, did not hesitate boldly to assert that her brief space of life had been shortened by the domineering will and stern discipline of i oses, her lord and master. But all these reports Mrs. Mixsell the second neither heeded nor believed. "My dear," said she to her husband, afler they had been married about three weeks," "the Hutchison family is going to give a concert here on Wednesday eve ning." "Are they?" said Moses; "well what of that?" "I should like to go," said Mrs. Mixsell. "I shouldn't," said Mr. Mixsell. "I mean to go," said Mrs. Mixsell. "And I mean you sha'n't." said Mr. Mixsell. Agatha's cheeks crimsoned; her eyes sparkled with ominous luster. "Why not, Moses?" said she. "I don't approve of concerts," said Mr. Mixsell. "It's my opinion that a married woman is better off at home darning her husband's stocks, than gadding off to pub lic places." "I don't say lut that you do," admitted the bridegroom. "But I'don't mean to encourage this fancy of y ours lor running to every wild-beast show and public ex hibition in town! And, not to mince mat ters, 1 intend to put it down!" with great emphasis on the last three words. "I shall go!'" said Agatha. "You shall not!" said Moses. "How will you prevent it?" said Mrs. Mixsell. Unless, indeed, you lock me in my room!" with a little laugh. "I shall do that, if it proves necessary," said Mr. Mixsell. "And keep you there on bread and water, my fine madam." "You dare not!" said Agatha. "Yon shall see!'' said Mr. Mixsell. And so the married couple came to high words within the month. Agatha was putting on her bonnet and shawl in her own room on the Wednesday evening, when Mr. Mixsell came to the door, aud eyed her with oxtreuio severity. "You are determined to make a fool of yourself, eh?" said he. "I aui determined to go to the concert!" retorted she that was Agatha Simplex. "Then it's my duty to enforce My mar ital authority," said Mr. Mixsell. And he locked the door and put the key in his pocV.et. "Here you shall remain, madam," said he, "until you break that stubborn will of yours. At six o'clock to morrow morning I shall put in a loaf of bread and a pitcher of water." Mrs. Mixsell made no reply, and her husband began to fear that the task of re ducing ber to subjection was not going to be as easy as he had anticipated. He stalked off, and spent tbe evening comfortably by the fire. The next morning Ebenezer ilillgrove, who w as going to lay a half a dozen yards of stone w all for the Mixsells, came, bright and early, to breakfast. Mr. Mixsell was frying ham and eggs over the kitchen fire. "Where's your wife?" demanded Eben- "Sbe hasn't left her room yet," said Mr. Mixsell. adhering to the letter of the truth, if not to its spirit. "She was up pretty late at the concert last night, eh?" said Ebenezer. "At the —concert!" said Mr. Mixsell, for geting in his surprise to turn the last slice of hatn which lay frizzling in the pan. '•I saw her there," said Ebenezer, "in u black silk (town and a hat with blue feathers onto it! Langhed awful at the comic parts, and cried at the "Farewell Hymn." Mr. .Mixsell, with a last gleam of pres ence of mind, rescued the ham from its fiery ordeal, und put it on the plate. "Sit down and eat, Ebenezer," K aid he, "while I go and see alter Mrs. Mixsell." And oil ho trudged, with hit. square loaf of bread and a pitcher of water. Arriving at the door, he unlocked it and peoped in. There, leaning against the window sill, with its back to him, was the well known figure in the black dress und scarlet shawl, with a white worsted start half concealing its face. "Mrs. Mixsell," said he. No answer was returned. "Sulking, cht" said Mr. Mixsell. Still no reply was vouchsafed. "Well, you can have it out at your leisure," grimly commented her lord and master. "Here's your breakfast." And he went his way, firmly believing that Ebenezer Hillgrove bad been mistaken in the fact of Mrs. Mixsell's presence at the concert. Hut no sooner was the morning meal concluded than in walked Miss Peggerell. "Mornin', Mr. Mixsell. How did Agatha enjoy the concert last night?" "She didn't enjoy it at all," said Mr. Mixsell. "She wasn't there." "Not there!" echoed Miss I'eggerell. "But she was, and she sat next to me, aud I walked home us far as Chicken Lane under her umbrella. You'll tell me next that I wasn't there myself!" Mr. Mixsell excused himself and went hurriedly ui'stairs. "I'll be at the bottom of this mystery," said he. "or I'll know the reason why!" He unlocked the bedroom door and flung it open. "Agatha!" he said, sternly; "Agatha!" Aud then he saw ihe figure by the win dow with its immovable white face and unalterable smirk was only that of the dummy which had decorated Miss Agatha Simplex'* windows when she took in tailor ing, dressmaking and general millinery business. And tbe window was wide open; and the bed had not been slept in. "Goodness me!" tragically cried ont Mr. Mix-ell. "She has—left me!"' Just then he beard the sound of puffing and loud breathing behind him. and. turn ing. beheld the portly form of Miss Peg gerell herself." "What a dreadfully quick man yon be," panted Miss Peggerell. "Why couldn't yon have stood still loDg enough for me to tell you her message?" "What messaget" breathlessly demand ed Mr. Mixsell. "That she was gone back to the shop, and if you wanted to see her you'd find her there!" Mr. Mixsell considered. Should he go or should he cot? Trne, his pride was con cerned: but then, again how nicely Agatha ironed bis shirts and cooled his supper! how plcasAnt was her welcoming smile when he came home a little late on a frosty October night! "Yes!" .-aid Mixsell, "I'll go." And he did go. The lute Mit.s Simplex sat behind the big "To Let" in the bay window, composed and calm. She greeted Mr. Mixsell with an icy politeness that went to his heart. "Agatha!" said the ex-widower; you — you're not going to lea re me?" "I'll stay with no man who treats me like a child," she said. "But, I won t treat you so." "I'll live in no house whose proprietor locks me up," went on Mrs. Mixsell. "I'll never do it any more, my dear!" "And forbids me to go to concerts!" "I'll take you my self next time Agatha." And upon this understanding Mrs. Mix sell returned to the conjugal home, and Mr. Mixsell chopped up the abominable dummy for firewood. Agatha Simplex had conquered, and Mr. Mixsell never was the same man again. Important Trifles. John Wright was the son of a day labor er, a man of dissipated life and coarse habits. Tohn had no home teaching, no family traditions, no associations to lift him upward. But he had talent, great vigor of mind and body, and much am bition. He began as a newsboy, worked his way through school and into college. In his Freshman year he wrote to a friend, "I can conquer any difficulty be fore me as a scholar. I am not afraid of mathematics or of language dead or living, but to enter a room with a well-bred woman in it makes me tremble. I cannot eat a meal, I cannot meet an acquaintance in the street without committing what people call a breach of good manners. "The thousand and one trifling rules of etiquette terrify me. lam resolved to dis regard them. I will not be a slave to a code laid down by other men. I will be a scholar and an honest man, and brush aside these cobweb lines which hamper me." John carried out bis resolution. He was a moral man, earnest in his purpose to live a pure and honorable life; he stood at the head of his class in college. But while the other men in the class were invited into the homes of the professors, and made friend ships with educated men and gentle women which helped them throughout life, he was neglected. "He was be a good Christian." said the wife of the President —"but I will not ask to my table u man who puts his knife into the, butter, and who keeps his hat on when I am speaking to him." "I do not wish to wish to know a woman who judges aie by such trifles," said Wright, when this speech was repeated to him. But the neglect hurt him. When he left college, too, and entered a professional life, he found that these "trifles" drove friends away from him wherever ho went. His ability brought him clients, but his rude and coarse man ners made him a subject of their contempt and ridicule. He removed to a town in the far West hoping to leave prejudice behind him, but his new acquaintances pronounced him vulgar after five minutes' intercourse, and never offered to bring him to their homes homes or introduce him to their families. Shut out from the society of women of the better class, he was forced to choose an uneducated wife. His children are as rude and ungentle as himself. "I should have taken rank," he said once, bitterly, "with gentlemen. But tbey judged inn by my coat of manners* and mistook me for a footman." If a gentleman voluntarily wears the livery of a footman, he should not com plain if bo is mistuken for one. Too many boys, confident of their own high purpose in life, despise as petty the observances of good breeding. They forget that these observances are the language, tbe signs which gently bred people in all nations have devised to express their good pur pose in life. They are the essence of com mon sense and kindly feeling. A man cannot quote Greek or declaim poetry at a hotel table to establish his claim to education or refinement. But he can do it by his quiet voice,by bis unobtru sive and simple bearing. He cannot announce to a car full of people the kindly sympathy toward all mankind, which swells his heart to burst ing. But the smile with which he leaves his seat for an old black woman will ex press it without a word. A gilt button on a cap is not a small matter if it shows the difference between a | boor and a nobleman.— Youth's Com panion. What Sarah Said to Mary. It was on a Madison avenue car at C o'clock. Among those who had seats were eight men. Among those standing up were two shop girls After waiting for a reason able time for some one to offer them scats one of the girl said: "Mary, it's too bad, isn't it?" "What, Sarah?" asked the other. "That they art; all bow-legged." "Who?" "These eight gentlemen. I have pa tronized this line for five years,and 1 never saw a bow-legged man give himself away by standing up in a car. It wouldn't be reasonable to expect it." "Of course not." In just live secounds eight men were on their feet, bowing and smiling and asking Sarah and Mary if they wouldn't be so everlasting kind aud obliging as to take seats —take half the cur, in fact, and they took it. —To enjoy good health, aim to always have ahundui.t sleep: this can generally be secured by ma. agement, unless you have a crying baby, in which case I)y.

Six Tim -s Married. A telegam from llradford. I'a, dated November ,17 my*: Ten years ago the little tavern at Ememn'i Mills, in the Pine Hun lumber region, mas kept by a noted character, Klia* Benton. He bad a very pretty daughter named Betty. Her mother was dead, and she looked after the household allairs of the tavern. She was lt> years old. and Edward Shott, a bark contractor, young and well-to-do. was in love with her and wanted to marry her. Betty wanted to marry young Scott, but her farther had other plans, and she was compelled to obey him. Be chose for ber husband a man three limes her age, who owned a large pine tract in the neighbor hood. a valuable property that landlord Benton was anxious to possess. Be com pelled his sixteen-year-old daughter to marry this man, Aulds by name, lie only lived six months, and left his young widow the pine land, which her farther sold and appropriated the proceeds to his own use. Young Shott had in the meantime closed out his contracts and gone away. One year after the death of her husband young Mrs. Aulds married entirely to spite her father. John Grover, a sawyer. He was killed in his employer's mill one month later. * The landlord's daughter was now twice a widow,although she was not yet 18 years old. Two months after her second husband's death Edward Shott returned to Emerson's Mills, and on her 18th birthday young Widow Grover, who had grown defiant of her father, married her old-time lover. The couple lived happily for a year, and one child was boru. The child was not two weeks old when the farther was crushed to death by a falling 'tree in tbe woods. Widowed now for a third lime, the landlord's daughter mourned her third husband sincerely for two years. Then her farther died. At the age of 21 she made what was s regarded as a most fortunate marriage, her n fourth husband being Elmer James, a y young Warren county lawyer. James fc turned out to be a drunkard. He abused s his wife and her child so shamefully that t she had no difficulty in securing a divorce, which was granted four months after she became Mrs. James. She remained a widow until she was 23, when she married George Rhone, a widower ol 50. He was a prominent man in the locality. Before j they were married a year Rhone died with the small-pox. His young wife nursed him j all through the course of the dreadful dis „ ease, eseapiug without taking it herself. Khone left his widow SIO,OOO in cash. She ( was then not 24 years old. Not long after ber last husband's death she took her child and went to Ohio,where she had relatives living. This was ono year ago. Last Thusday she wrote to a friend in Bradford j that she was to be married tbe next day in Covington, Ky., to a young man named | Charles Green, a farmer. , What Kind of a Winter It Will ' Be. A reporter of the New Castle Courant tbe other day in a quandry whether to buy I a cheap overcoat or retain hii linen duster for this winter, concluded he would inter view a number of well-known weather prognosticates who pretend to be able by 1 studying the signs, to tell what the coming t winter would be. When he got through he was as much at sea the roof covered with somo inexpensive ' paint than to have the labor and expense e of renewing shingles every few years. " What He Would Have Done. 8 A missionary was preaching to an 10 American frontier audience on the prodigal I' son. After he had described the condition of the son in rags among the swine, and had started hi» on bis return, as he began j". to speak of the father coming to meet him s. and ordering the fatted calf to be killed in s, honor of the prodigal's return, he noticed p t a cowboy looking interested, and he deser !' v mined to make a personal appeal. Look ing directly at his hearer, the preacher said: "My friend, what wonld yon have r " done if you had a son returning home in nl such a plight?" "I'd have shot the boy, to and raised tho calf," was the prompt reply. —lt should seem that indolence itself would induce a person to be hone*t, a* it require* infinite!} - greater pain* and con trivance to be a knave. —Money to a man i» like water to a plant, only useful a* long a* it promotes growth—like water in the fountain or wa ter in the tank, keep it flowing, and it bluttses; keep it stagnant, and it injure*. —A good inclination is but the first rode draught of virtue; but the finishing strokes are from the will, which, if well disposed, will by degrees perfect; if 111 disposed. will by the superinduettan of ill habit* quickly deface it. —Experience iujelectrically welding pro futile* shows that the metal is strengthen ed at the point of welding.
