THE ROMANCE OF MUTBY WORKHOUSE By Mrs. Isabel Smith TIK puanllnns if the Mutbj work houae had juat finished their or ilinary meeting, when the master, with rather n aheejiish expression of coun tenance, ohsrrvoxl: "I think, gentlemen, I ought to lay liefore you n letter I received yester day. First oiy of that sort I ever had." "Dear me, Tripp, what's that?" ex claimed the chaplain, otherwise the rector of afutbjr, commonly called l'nr non Weaver, a round, rosy-faced mun, who more resembled n farmer than a clerirymun. The other members of the board ceased their varioua conversations and looked expectant, all except Dr. Kvesham, the medical officer. For the last half-hour he had heard efery Im patient thud of his handsome chest nut's hoofs on the gravel outside, and felt that what might be an agreeable method of passing a little spare time to his confreres was a waste of precious moments to a busy man like himself.' The whole business might be settled so much more quickly had tiey been con cise instead of rambling and (Imputa tive. He had Just been wondering how it could ever have been accepted aa a popular fact that his sex were behind hand in the matter of speech, when this new delay occurred. He waa a man of nbout 35, quiet and reserved, living by himself, and accustomed to long, lonely drives about the Suffolk country on his professional errands. "Well, Tripp, whnt Is It?" repeated Parson Weaver, rather Impatiently. He had been Interrupted In an Interesting discussion with his neighbor, the squire, about the trotting hackney and "gate post" mangolds that he hot. got first priito for at the recent agricultural show. The master cleared his throat, and read, somewhat nervous! y, the follow ing epistle: Sept. 16, 18. To the Master of Muthy Workhouse: Sir: I am a native of Thorpe St. Ilarnn I'lts, and left this country 40 years bro for Australia, where I made a comfortable for tune. I am now returned to my native load, but llnd nearly nil my friends are gunc und scattered. I am Wl years of aire, strong; and hearty, and want a wtfo to help spend my savlnirs. fan you recommend me a nice, respeetalde younir woman among your Inmates? I should prefer a single woman, not a widow, and would make her a good husband, l'lease write by return to Stephen Yaxley. Hell Inn, Thorpe Bt. Itarnabaa, 8uffolk. A smile appeared on most of the faces round the bai.e-eovered table as the master finished, "Dear me, Tripp," said the parson, "are you to be turned Into a matri monial agent In your old age?" The master half laughed. "It would seem so, sir. Curious letter, isn't.) it, gentlemen? Hut I thought It my duty to bIiow it to you." "Certainly, certainly," echoed all. Dr. Evesham was gazing absently out ef the big window ut a distant view of stained wherry-solls gliding up the river. "What is your opinion, Evesham?" asked the squire, ruther pettishly. He thought the medical officer might take a little interest in the subject, so that he could get back the sooner to the more interesting one of agriculture, and convince l'orson Weaver that the prize for mangolds had been-unfairly bestowed, "My opinion ? I have hardly had time to form one," answered the doctor, coolly. "Hut I don't know that I should take any notice of the letter." The master coughed deprecatingly. "Well, sir, if 1 may be so bold as to suggest, I just mentioned the matter to my wife, and she says she thinks he might do for Susannah West." "Susannah West!" exclaimed the doctor, bringing the legs of his chair to the ground so violently as to make the others start. "Is that the girl w-ith the reddish hair?" asked the squire, screwing up his eyes meditatively. "And violent eyes," said the parson; "very much like some' of the old mas ters' portraits of the Madonna. "The young woman's father "was a small former at Cutton All fSaints, said the master, "and failed. She was ill for a long while after she got here. It aecmed to prey upon her mind. "Yes, yes, we all remember," said the medical officer. "She had a low fever; it was a tough job to pull her through." "You ordered port wine for her, sir, said the butcher, cheerfully, ne did not object to what some member called extraragnnce in thesick-dietlng, which generally Included a good sop ply of beef-tea. "A sad case, a sad case," said the squire. "But I don't see why the young woman can't go out to service." "Not strong enough," replied the doc tor, "nor brought up to that sort of work. She has the instincts of a lady, but unfortunately not enough educa tion to fit her for teaching." "Then, from what 1 can see of it," said the squire, "she will be here for the rest of her days like old Molly Mobbs, that was reckoned to have cost the ratepayers over 1,000 altogether." "Unless she nccepts this offer," said the chaplain. "Ball gentlemen?" All looked a little doubtful, as if not quite certain whether to treat the sug gestion seriously. At that moment a troop of little work house children filed past the window, followed by a young woman, clad in the lilac-check union gown und hideous black straw union bonnet with its pur ple ribbon. "There goes Susannah West!" ex claimed the master; "sIic'b just bring ing the little ones home from u wnlk. A rare hand with them she is, too." The sun was shining straight upon the young woman in question, und the board caught u glimpse of a dazzling wild-rose complexion and bands of red gold waving hair. "A very respectable girl, indeed," said the parson "and 1 for one suggest that we follow this offer up. We ought to make inquiries; and, though I have plenty to do in the parish" (the others exchanged quietly amused glances at this assertion, for it was well known that the parson took his parochial du ties very lightly), "I will go over to Thorpe St. liarnabas myself und find out nil that 1 can of Mr. Stephen Yax ley. Hut in the meantime, Tripp, sny nothing to the girl." A special board meeting was held a few days later. The parson's inquiries proved satisfactory, and it now only remained to Inform the young woman of the proxisal. "I suppose you've quite settled It ahull be Susannah West, gentlemen?" said the muster, a little diffidently. "I suppose so, Tflpp. Why?" usked the squire. "Wall, sir, for the matter of getting rid of one of the women, I'd sooner It was Mary I'ott. She's such a grumbling creature never satisfied." "So she Is, Trippi but then she's a widow, and thot is against Mr. Yaxley's specifications." Tripp scratched his bead. "Not a bad-looking woman, sir," he observed. "No, no. Dut a stipulation is a stip ulation; and I, for my part, consider that Providence has sent this special offer on purpose for Susannah West." A murmur of approval followed this assertion; only the butcher ventured to demur. "Seems a bit oldish for the girl, don't he, gentlemen T' "Otd? Pshaw! What's 58?" cried one und all. "Better able to take care of a wife. Got a position," etc. "Yea, yea; to be sure. Of course that mokes up," said the butcher. "Yery well," said the parson; "then let it be settled once for all that behave Susannah West." "Yes, gentlemen; that is all very well ns far as It goes," observed the medical officer, who had noi yet spoken. "But the question still re mains: Will Susannah West have him?" The others looked a little foolish, as though this side of the argument hnd not struck them. "That we can soon find out," sold Parson Weaver, Irritably. "Tripp, fetch the girl here" In a few minutes the girl stood be fore them; she looked shy "nnd half (rightened) wondering what the board could wunt of her. "Ha! Susnnnnh, my denr," began the parson he had called her Miss West In the days of her prosperity, but one cannot expect complimentary titles in the workhouse "we have sent for you because in short well, we have a Tery advantageous offer, which wc think will just suit yon." Before Susannah could make any re ply, the squire, determined that the chaplain should not have it all his own wav, exclaimed in his hearty voice: " 'hat would you say to a good home ami a kind husband, my girl?" The color flooded Susannah's face; she gave one startled glance, then stood, with her eyes on the floor, nervously plaitlnff a oanaar of her checked apron. "Perhaps II vonM to aw well If I read the kttttv W to) lousiied," said 'the parson, glaring ttoappreval at his neighbor for having forced his hand Then he pnt on his spectacles, and read in slow and ponderous tones Mr. Stephen Yaxley's epistle, pausing erery now and then to see the effect. If he expected rnpturous gratitude when he finished he was disappointed. Susan nah never raised her eyes, ner color came nnd went, and her lips trembled; but she said not a word. "Well, my girl," cried the squire, un nblc to restrain his impatience, "what do you say to this? Isn't it a fine chance? I wouldn't think twice about It ff I were you. Just look at your po sition, nere you are In the work house nt your nge, and, like a rat, with out a friend in the world. Not any fnult of yours, of course," he added, as a pained expression flitted across the girl's face. "Perhaps she would like a little time to think it over," suggested the butcher, in his thick, husky voice. "Hove you' got nothing to say, Su sannoh?" inquired the parson, rather sternly. The girl's fingers interlaced nervously- "You are very kind, gentlemen; but I I don't know what to say." She looked around appeal! ngly, des perotely. "Come, come, be quick to settle It, girl. Wo don't want another special meeting called," cried the squire, i The medical officer rose: "I think, gentlemen, perhaps if I saw Miss West alone for a minute she might give me an answer. She feels embarrassed, I can see." "Quite right, Evesham," said the parson. "They can go Into your room, Tripp, can't they?" Tripp, jumping up with alacrity, led the way to his tobacco-scented little sanctum. "Sit down, Susannah," said the doc tor, kindly. "Now don't be flurried. You have heard this offer; It seems a good one for you. But don't say 'Yes' If you'd rather not. Just think It over a "little." He turned his back on her, nnd, go ing over to the mantelpiece, examined a quaint old china group of nn Eng lishman, Scotchman and Irishman, seated together, entitled "Auld hong Sync." A long silence followed; then Susannah spoke. She hnd a remarka bly sweet, soft voice, and the doctor looked round quickly. "If I do sny 'Yes,' Dr. Evesham," she said, tremblingly, "it will be because you wish me to; for no other rea son." She rnised her eyes to him as she spoke. They were beautiful eyes, and sent a thrill through the medical offi cer. "I wish you to say 'Yes?' " he ex claimed, coming towards her. "You have been so good to me; you saved my life when I first came here. I should never have recovered but for your care and attention. I always feel" she clasped her hands tightly together "you nre the only friend I have, and 'there is nothing I would not do for your sake." The passionate warmth of her tone startled Dr. Evesham. He caught both the hands with which, nshamcd of her freedom, she was about to cover her face, and said, tenderly: "My poor girl! Then you shall never sny 'Yes' to this offer!" The board was waxing impntient, nnd the squire nnd parson had almost broken their long friendship over the prize "gate-post" mangolds, when Dr. Evesham returned with Susannah West. "Well, doctor, I hope you hnve brought the young woman to see rea son," said the former. "I hope so," replied the doctor, dryly. "Has she said 'Yes,' then?" asked the squire and the butcher in a breath. "She has to me, gentlemen," said Dr. Evesham, reddening. "I am going to marry her myself!" Chambers Journal. FRENCHMEN DON'T TRAVEL BMaaat The Have nn Innate Horror f Any thlnx I.I Ue 'Itonuh-Ina- It." If. Bonvalto, the distinguished ex plorer, Is constantly exhorting his fellow-countrymen to truvel, and his ap peals are once more leading to a re view of the reasons which render the average Uaul so uverse to adventure beyond his own frontier, says the Lon don Telegraph. How does it hnppen, it Is asked, that so few, even of the younger generation of Frenchmen, dis play any Inclination to see the world, although at their uge, many Anglo Saxons have already been round it? Two main explanations for these stay-at-home propensities nrc volun teered. One is that people in France rarely trouble themselves to learn for eign languages, so that they are like fish out of water when they go abroad, Another is thut they arc absolutely ig norant of the practical side of travel and have little idea of the articles that they require or of the best mode of fitting themselves out for u long jour ney. In short, they are not handy or enterprising and have a horror of any thing In the shape of "roughing it," as the saying goeB. Wished He Wm a Ueathen.
