TOO CAUTIOUS, J EV 8. T. i There was n snd group of lndios gathered in the parlor of n pretty house on the outskirts of the town of Topham. Miss Martha .Toyeo.spinster, of nncottaiu nge, sat in n low locking (-hair her aweet face clouded, her ten der heart sore; while h.6r two nieces, May ami Bessie Joyce, twin sisters of ItH, blno-pyeil nml pretty ns rosebuds, ant one each side. The three Indies nil wore mourning and bore in their )nle faces nnd heavy eyes the traces of recent sorrow; but while Aunt Mat tie meekly folds:! her hands nnd sighed May and Bessie gave voice to consid erable in ward indignation, "I don't care for ourselves," said Hossie, using the plural that meant the inseparable twinshtp; "we are young and can work, but it is too hard to have Anut Mattie turned ont of house and home after nil she has done for Mr. William Oldfleld." "Don't blame your uncle, dear," began Annt Mattie. "We wasn't our nncle," snapped out May. "He did what he promised to do," continued Annt Mattie. "And then undid it," said Bessie, nngiily. "We nre not snre of thnt, dear." "Now, auntie! He made a will, leaving you this house and $10,003 nd $10,000 apiece to Bessie and me," said May; "but afterward, if he did not destroy it, w here is it?" "l'es, where is it?" echoed her sis tev. "If it was in the honse.snrely it would have been found in the general turning out of our household posses sions today." "Well, dear, it can't be found, and we must go back to our old rooms nnd try to re-establish the little school I left five years ago. We have had a comfortable home for that time." For the facts of the case were those: William Oldfleld, a widower of mauy years, possessing large means, had been attacked late in life with a pain ful,iucurahle sickness, trying to nurse, distressing to witness and having nn irritating effect on tho nerves of tho nnfferer. After enduring the trials of dishonest servants nnd nurses, incom petent housekeepers and careless at tendants for a time he bad persuaded his dead wife's mniden sister to give op r small but flourishing school, by which she supported herself ami her brothor'a orphan girls, and keep house for him. In default of regular s,ilnry,he gave home to the aforesaid uiuces, who supported themselves by sewing, and promised a legacy to Miss Mattie, who, however, hardly expected and never demanded it. Yet, most assnredly, she had earned it, for her brother-in-law, by reason of pain and had tompoi', made her a slave to his sick whims, keeping her actively employed nt nurse, as he grew worse an 1 wors.i, till, during the lat year of his ltfo.she rarely left his room. Faithfully and patiently she en dured the monotony of her life, the caprices of her patient's tomper, the fatigue of nursing, till death claimed the invalid nnd released her. The promised legacy had been left to her nod the girls in a will made a year be fore Willia n Oldfleld died; but tho lawyer said the document was not iu- . trusted to his care. Failing to And it iu the lionsH, the ladies were notified that William Oldfleld, Jr., the nephew and heir-at-lnw of the deud man, would take possession of the entire property at ouve. It was well kuown in Topham that this heir was by no moans the one to whom the uncle desired to leave his property, as the remainder of his es tate, after the legacies meutionel, passe :1, by the terms of the hist will, to the town to endow a hospital. The young heir-at law had been on ill terms with his uncle for years, being a spendthrift gambler and a man ad dieted to drinking, heartlessly imlill'jr ont to his uncle's aull'eriugs and laugh iug boisterously when the lawyer pro posed to him to make some oompetisa tion to Miss Mattie for her services. "1 he old maid was fishing for my uncle a money, of oourse," he said, "tuoiigu sue is not even a relative. Let her go hack to her proper plaoe and lenrn to keep her busy Sugars out of ot her people s pies. Bo the lawyer, Mr. O'Byrne, of kindly heart and great legal k nowledge. was obliged to give Misa Mattie uotioe to quit the house she had been prom iaed should be her own, giving vent fi lie uul so to some opinions of his own in the matter, not strictly piofes atonal. "You are in re von bare senrohed faithfully far the will?" be asked. "Quite sure." "He certainly bad it," said the law yer. "I drew it np myself ten thou sand apiece and the house and peisou 1 effects and furniture to Miss Mar tha; the rest of the estate for the use 4 the Topham hospital Dear I dearl SOLILOQUY.

I am very sorry. Miss Mnttie. I hnvo represented matter to the hoir.bnt he fails to see them in .1 proper light." Ho the Indies packed their trunks nnd gathered in the little pnrlor to spend their last evening, preparatory to an early start in the morning. And while they sat.mournfully conversing, a strange event occurred. A shock hended bov rang the bell nnd handed iu n note, which ran in this wise: "Miss Martha Joyce: I do not know thnt the disease of which my uncle died was contagious, but I have a horror of illness iu any shape or form. I therefore beg of you. before you leave his house, to burn the bed stend and bedding lie used, that I may not find it when I take possessiou. Yours, very truly, "WlI.LlAW Or.DPIKt.D." "Well!" cried Bessie, "if impudence can leudi a sublimer height than thnt I inn mistaken." "Burn the bedstead! that splendid black walnut bedstead that matchet the chamber suit!" said Miss Mattie. "It really soems a pity I" "Lot him do it himsolf," enid May; "we are not his servants." "I'll tell yon what I will do.denrs," said gentle Aunt Mnttie; "I have had everything washed but the tickings; I'll just empty the mattresses and have those washed, too. But I renlly can not reconcile it to my conscience to burn np things that nre perfectly harmless. " "Oh, Aunt Mnttie.give the bedding to old Pegjyl She will be delighted. The blankets are soft and tine an 1 the sheets nil clean. The young sinnor only wants thorn out of his way." So old Feg-?y, an aged womn'i, pen sioner to all the charitable folks in Topham, was ssnt for and told of this stroke of good fortune. "Wo w ill go with on," Bessie Slid, "and help you carry thorn." Tha four women ascended one flight of stairs to the room where William Oldfleld die;!. Everything was in irder there, and over tho ninttessea wns spren-l a whits Marseilles omit lint l'osio put with the rest of the leddiuir, while Aunt Mattie aud May umpired tho mattresses to the floor. i'hey are all stuffed with hair. P'g-O'i" Annt Mattie said. "I or dered tham myself." "ies, inarm," said the old woman. feeling them carefully nnd nodding her head; "I'm thinking I'll sell tho hair. Husk stuffing will do for hit old bones, and I can buy sorao flour and coul, likely, with the price of the hair." Just as yon please." said Annt Mattio, tying tho mattresses securely with a stout cord. "Sow, girls, nre yn ready? Hannah will help Peggy with this bun-lie, aud we will carry the shoets, blankets and spreads." Ho when William Oldfleld took pos session the next dny he found the bedstead bare and a note from 1'essie tied to it, respectfully declining to make a lion lire of the furniture aud stating the fact that the bedding had beon giveu away for a charitable ns?. "If hs doosn't like it hj is wcloomo to dislike it," that young lady said, graciously, ns she signed the dainty epistle in hor finest hnndwriting. The hoir said a bad word, locked np the room and occupied another npiirtuvmt, where there had been no onfouuded sickness," as bo sail. nnd there reigned iu the bone where Aunt Mattie had kept dainty neat lie -is the confusion of a young bachelor's household, the disorder following fre quent late suppers, when the city friends of young Oldfleld came down to "make a night of it a id help him spend the oh! man's inoiioy." Quiet Topham was scandalized and sighed over the days when the dissi pated nephew was a far-away disgraoa for mild gossip, but there seemed to be no help or the trouble. The funeral bad been over nearly three months, and Miss Mattie hail collected goodly number of little folks ouce more aroaud her, when one morning, while BesBie was busy in the little kitchen baking pies and May was ruuuing a sewing macliiue in the sit ting room, there came hobbling np to the door old l'eggy. "Come in, l'eggy," Bessie laid. cheerily. "You are just in time for an apple pie I baked for you." "Bless your kind heart and tweet face," taid the old woman. "You nre never bo poor yourself but you re member those who are worse oil. But it's Misa Mattie I want to see." "Yon nre just in time.then. There's the noon bell ringlug, nud here comes Auut Mattie and May to belp about dinner." "Mist Mattie,". said old Feggy, "did you ever lose a paper when yiu were at the old bouse?" "A paperl" tot earned Bessie and May iu chorus. 'Oh, l'eggy, did yoa flud one?" "Yes, dears. I can't read myself, bnt here it is." . And from the folds of her shnwl Teggy drew forth large folded docu ment, iudorsed in round legal baud on the bnck: "liftst will and testament of William 0;ifleld." Auut Mattie sat down nnd cried softly. Bessie danced nround like no. insane Indian, and May, seizing n lint, dnrted oil' to Lawyer O'Byrne, "How did you find it?" Bessie cried nt Inst, when she wne exhausted with her solitary dam e. "Well, dears," said the old womnn, "I've been waiting tilt the wnrm dny to empty the muttresscs.for they were wonderfully comfortnble for my old bone in the winter, nml so today I ripped them open, ns Mick (iallornn said he'd give n fair price for the hnir nnd fill tliein np ngnin with husk. And pushed in one of tliem, near the middle, iu a little slit cut with a knif I found the paper. And it's thankful I am this day that's it's good news I bring, if your face tells the truth, honey." "Wood news! tho best of news!" said Bessie. "You shall have the warmest shawl next winter to be found in Top bam, l'eggy, nnd the softest bed." And here May entered w ith Mr. O'Byrne, nnd the whole story hnd to be told again. "It iH the will, sure enough," said the lawyer. "And so Mr. Oldfleld wanted you to burn tho lied nnd bed ding! H'm! I shouldn't wonder if bo wns afraid of this very discovery and wns too great n cow ard to risk hunting fori himself. It is my opin ion that be will burn the whole house down yet if he keeps possession long. Topham never heard such rioting." The will wn given to Mr. O'By rue's keeping nnd in due time proved nnd executed. The hoir-nt-lnw innde n great bluster, but knowing bis ingo wns useless left tho house once move, considerably thn worse for his brief sojourn in it. The fact thnt oven the temporary enjoyment of his uncle's money wns nn altogether unexpected event probably aided bis ncquioscence iu the legnlity of the will. The house wni denned nud purified nnd once more given over to Aunt Mattie's quiot rulo nnd the happy oc cupancy of tho twin sisters.who gladly gave up sewing and teaching to join in the social pleasures of Topham. The hospital floui islics.nnd old l'eggy nover tires of relating how she found the fortunes of the Joyce Indies in the hair mattresses William Oldfleld or dered to be burned on the dny when fear made him too cautious.
