I THE OLD
By EMMA CHURCHMAN HEWITT.
It tu noon boor In a large busl-'
ness establishment, and a group of
morry girls were standing by a win
dow, chattering, aa such girls will, of
very thing and nothing. Even a cas
ual glance would reveal the fact that
the force of this office was socially far
sdxjve the ordinary run of such places.
In fact, many of these young girls bore
In their faces such evidences of refine
ment that It was hard to understand
Just how they found themselves there.
To the manager, however, a warm
koerted, symiathetlc woman, was
known the private history of nearly
very girl In the establishment.
From disliking her as an innovation,
and fearing her rule as a curtailing of
privileges which they had wrested
from the firm, under toe very Black
management which had preceded her
advent, they had grown to respect and
love hor In spite of the inflexible will
to which they were obliged to bow.
They had gradually recognized the fact
that adherence to duty alone was the
standard by which they were gauged.
When this fact was thoroughly under
stood. It soon became a recognized fact
that the clerk who disliked the mana
ger was one who would shirk her le
gitimate work whenever she could.
It was no wonder then to see her
one of this group mentioned In the
beginning.
"Have you ever been to St. John's at
Easter, Miss Trlffet?" inquired Millie
Wendall, drawing her head in from
the window where she had been watch
ing a runaway, and turning suddenly
upon her.
A new excitement turned the heads
ef all the girls, and Millie Wendall
Uld not see the quick, nervous clasp
of the hands, or hear the breath sharp
ly drawn In, as one in mortal pain
might do. AH she was conscious of
was the quiet reply-
"Yes, Miss Wendall once many
years ago."
"Why, Miss Trlffet, how big and
black your eyes aro!" exclaimed Net
lie Julian, suddenly, a warmhearted,
impulsive hoyden, who, as she de
clared, "adored the ground Miss Trlf
fet walked on."
"Nonsenso, Nettle, you make me
blush! You must see very droll things
with those new glasso3 of yours. The
idea of my pole blue eyes looking 'big
and black!'"
"Look, girls! See If I am not right!"
exclaimed Nettlo, taking Miss Trlffet
by the shoulders and trying to turn
lier around.
But Miss Trlffot laughingly declared
tihe was not on exhibition, and break
ing away from hor captor, went to hor
losk and struck the gong for the close
cf the noon hour.
For a fow moments sho sat as one
In a dream, then, with a smothered ex
clamation she rose.
"No! No! I cannot, must not think
sow. I cannot afford It!" she said to
herself, as she throw herself into the
work of the afternoon with feverish
energy. How the hours dragged! It
eoemej as if time never passed so
slowly. But at last five o'clock tolled
lowly out from the great clock across
the street, the gong struck twice and
Che work of the day was over.
The samo feverish energy that had
characterized hor work of the after
noon, was thrown Into her walk as
she wended her way home. People who
noted this enorgotic woman striding
up the street looking neither to the
right nor to the loft, evidently see
ing nothing, quietly turned aside and
lot her have the rigkt of way. Arriv
ing at a largo old fashioned house on
the edge of tho city, she opened the
door with her latch-key and ascended
three flights of stairs to the place Bbo
called "home" "Old Maid's Hall"
s she laughingly termed it.
As she entered her rooms her two
black cats raised their heads and
greeted her with a gratified purr, at
once dropping back into their comfort
ably positions behind the "Lady Frank
lin," which did duty for an open grate
la this cosy sot of apartments, which
consisted of two large rooms upon tho
third floor, overlooking a large yard
Cull of great trees.
60 absorbed was she In her own
thoughts that she omitted ber custom
ry ceremony of stooping to pat them
on the head anj give them a word of
endearmont. Throwing herself in her
chair, she had just given hersulf up
. to reflection when she felt herself
gently pulled by the skirt.
"Why, poor old Jetty," she ex
claimed, "It is too bad. I almost for
got you, you poor old crook-necked fol
low! I think I feol more for you than
I do for Tipple, you poor unfortunate!
We've been companions In misery, Jet
ty, dear, haven't wo?" And she took
the cat la ber arms as If be bad been
ohild. "Come on Tipple! There's
room tor you, too!"

ous. Altogether, these three were
well suited to each other. The year
before Jetty had had some terrible af
fection of the ear, and Instead of chlor
oforming him and "putting him out ot
his misery," as the landlady advUed,
Miss Trlffet, in place of going away
as she had intended, spent her whole
two weeks' vacation in attending to
the sufferer and bringing him success
fully through the trying time. Since
then his head had always been turned
on one side. These two dumb but In
telligent animals, formed a very large
element in this lonely woman's happi
ness. Many a confidence did she re
pose in thelf silent breasts, and many
a one-sided conversation did she hold.
Tonight, however, she had no words
for them. Herself alone, and the past,
occupied her thoughts.
"well, pussies," she said at last,
rousing berselt with a shake, and
dropping them gentlyon the floor, "this
won't do; pussies must have their
suppers, no matter what happens.
must'nt they?" A purr and a noise
which she chose to interpret as as
sent, was their reply, as they rubbed
themselves slowly back and forth
against her skirt Each having do
voured his saucer of warm milk, which
was their evening meal, they stretched
themselves out behind the Lady
Franklin again and went to sleep, all
interest in Miss Trlffet's movements
having entirely vanished for tho time
being.
Back and forth she went with lag
ging steps, preparing her own light
supper and washing her solitary tea
cup, saucer and plate.
All done, and 'her arrangement for
the evening completed, she sat down
and gave herself up to reflection.
what a host of memories had the
Idle question of Millie Wendall called
up, a question forgotten by the querist,
almost as soon as asked! "St. John's
at Easter!" How well she remem
bered that day long ago, when in all
the flush of warm young love she had
walked to church with John Gray, her
chosen one out of all the world! What
a noble man he had seemed, so tall
and protecting so handsome and ton
dor, and how happy she had been! As
sihe listened to tho service every word
seemed addressed to her personally,
and of all the people in that congre
gation, from no heart did more joyous,
sincere paeans arise than from that
of Elllce Tnrtet.
Then had followed all those beauti
ful spring and sumnirr months, that
passed almost like a dream, when all
the world seemed made for happiness,
and tho nlr itself seemed to breatlio of
love. Thero, under the stars, they had
sat, and she had llstoncd with shining
eyes while John had sung to her tuo
songs of love he had learned In foreign
climes, accompanying himself with a
soft strumming upon the guitar. How
woll she remembered tho lessons ho
had given; what amusement they had
had over her awkwardness; tho mo
mont of triumph when she could really
sing the pretty little Spanish ditty all
through, and accompany ticrself, with
out a mistake! How ne had praised
her and theif had laughingly crowned
her with a wreath ot woodbine that
grew ovorhoad!
Then had come that awful tlmo, that
even now, after nn Interval of ten
years she could not think of without
paling to the lip, and growing sick and
faint the nwful time wnen the news
came that John Gray had been killed
In a railway accident and so horribly
mangled that hla dearest frlond would
not know him! So stunned was Bhe
by the blow, that when a fow weeks
later the crash came, and her father
died of despair, she hailed her changed
fortunes with pleasure, and threw her
self Into the work of the business
world as her salvation.
Tho spell was strong upon her to
night, and underneath all her reflec
tion, was running the strain of tho
little Spanish ditty learned so long sro,
and fraught with such precious recol
lections. Never uinee that night, bo
many years back, had she touched the
guitar, but tonight Bhe was Irresist
ibly impelled to take It cut and handle
It once more. Poor thing! A sad
looking object It was! The pearl Bet
tings loosened, a long crack across its
face! As she lifted it tenderly from
its case, her hands accidentally swept
across the tuneless strings and brought
forth a wull that mado Miss Trlffet
shlvor.
"Nothing but the ghost of lost happi
ness could have evoked such a wall
as that!" she said, half aloud, while a
Eiliarp, sobbing sigh caught her throat.
Keverently she stooped and kissod tho
poor old thing, and then seating her
self, lakl it softly across her lap. With
her handkerchief she delicately wiped
the dust away and thon mechanically
began to tune the strings. The spell
was on ber, and In a moment she bad
struck Into the old Spanish ditty, so
dear in the past Over and over
again lb a&ug the little song, ber
rote gaining confidence: at each repe
tition, until It swelled forth with al
most Its old-time beauty and fulness.
So absorbed was she that the person
on the other side of the door was
obliged to knock loudly three times
before tfoe sound was carried to Miss
Trlffet's Inner consciousness.
"PloBse, Miss Trlffet," said the land
lady, when she finally gained a hear
ing, "the gentleman on the floor above
(the cripple I told you about), has
asked mo who It was singing down
here. I told him I didn't know, but as
It's you, miss, I thought maybe you
wouldn't mind coming up and singing
for him, Just once.'
"Oh, Mrs. Mulllgnn!" exclaimed
Miss Trlffet "1 couldn't; I never sing
for anybody. I haven't sang for
years." She flushed painfully at the
Idea.
Indeed, miss, I wouldn't ask you, but
being a crip pi o, an all, and he seems
awful low, like, this evening. Indeed,
miss," she added In a wnisper, "I be
lieve on my heart he's been crying."
Miss Trlffet's tender heart was
touched. What did it matter? A sac
rifice moro or less, for Buffering hu
manity! Why not this kind as well
as another? So flushed and trembling
with excitement, s'he ascended the
stairs to the auditor.
"I'm sorry, but I only know a few
little things," she began, as she en
tered. "Only a little song or two; but
If they give you pleasure I shall be
very glad."
As her auditor turned his face to the
light Elllce Trlffet beheld John Gray.
"Oh. Elllce! Elllce!" lie cried. "For
give me for sending for you. My heart
cried out for you so, I could not help
It dear, I could not help It! It has
been so bard all these years,, but I
would not come Into your bright young
life, I a wretched crlpplo, dependent
upon the bounty of my friends. For
give me, dear, forgive me! I know
you thought I was dead, and it was
better bo but, oh, my darling! how
hungry my heart has been for you."
During these Impetuous words Miss
Trlffet bad stood as If frozen to the
floor.
"Oh, John!" she walled, as with a
swift motion she went to the bed and
knelt by his side. 'Oh, my love! my
love! how could you, how could you,
all these years?'
"Sweetheart, did I not tell you I was
dependent upon the bounty of my
friends? How could I marry you? It
was best that you should be left to
forget me."
"You are no longer dependent upon
the bounty of your friends, John, dear.
Your wife, dear," she replied to his
questioning look, flushing till she
looked almost as young as Bhe had
done ten years before, under the wood
bine, "your wife will tako care of you.
Nay! No protests. You cannot help
yourself. I shall marry you In spite of
yourself. See, dear, this Is leap year,
and I Intend to press my rights. Dear,"
she added tenderly, "ao not break my
heart by refusing to accept this from
mo. Would you not have done It for
me? Life will Eeom an Eden, If we
can be together. Think what you nro
doing for rne by Just simply living and
being jour own true self!"
A lovlncr smile, gave assent.
"When am I to be marriod?" asked
he with mock mnolcneES.
Elllce Trlffet laughed.
"In St. 'John's, in June," she an
swered softly, but firmly, as one who
has made arrangements that were not
to be gainsaid. Waverlcy Magazine.

SALT PANS OF INDIANS.
The purposes fob which they
were intended.
Largest Ever Discovered Now In Pos
session of Peabody Museum at Har
vardHeated With Stones The
Kitchens of the Aborigines Pottery
From Graves.
That the aboriginal Indians of
North America did considerable cook
ing In their time has beets made evi
dent by the discovery in various parts
of the United States of numbers of
the earthenware vessels known as
"salt pans," but whose chief use was
apparently the preparation of fowl.
These vessels called salt pans by the
archaeologist because their main pur
pose seemed at first to have been the
evaporation of salt from the salt
springs near which the Indians estab
lished so many of their villages are
the largest known specimens of native
North American pottery. The largest
one ever found has recently come In
to the possession of the Poabody mu
seum at Harvard, writes the Cam
bridge correspondent of the New York
Post. It measures some 31 Inches In
diameter by 11 Inches deep. In ap
pearance, therefore, It Is very much
like a big, shallow punch bowl. It
was discovered not long ago by an
archaeological expedition under the
Joint auspices of the Peabody museum
and the University of California, and
Is an important part of the instruc
tive spoil taken from what is now a
farm near the meeting of the Little
Maramac and the big Mississippi riv
ers in Jefferson county, Mo., once the
site of a small Indian village.
This big salt pan, in whlsh the In
dians not only evaporated talt from
the water of salt llck3 which still ex
ist In the Immediate vicinity, but
doubtless cooked their elk meat or ven
ison. Is only one of a goodly number
of similar but smaller utensils found
In the same locality. The larger pans
were all sunk In the clay bottom upon
which the encampment had resteJ, and
were therefore as permanent as any
modern stove or oven. The difference
was that fire, Instead of being built
under or against the oven, was brought
to It in the shape of heated stones,
some of which, still showing evidence
of the many heatings to which the
Indians had subjected them, still re
mained in the salt pans recovered by
the Harvard and California archaeo
logists. .
Near tho salt pans, or native cook
ing apparatus, still remained portions
of the nnrlent fireplaces In which the
stones had been heated, together witu
the bones of several kinds of animals
which formed part of tho Indian bill of
fare about 200 years ago. These re
mains included oik, beaver, deer, fox
nnd turkey; but there wcro no traces
ot tno butralo, nltiiotigh buffalo re
mains nre often found among tho relics
of the Indians who unco roamed tho
nrore western prairies.
The big salt pan and its smaller
companion pieces of aboriginal kitch
en and dining room economy wore nat
turally not the only cvidonco of early
Indian life found in tho old village so
long hidden uniler the plowed furrows
of modern agriculture. Tho excava
tion, not yei fully completed, has al
ready revealed a cemetery as well as
a village, the cemetery differing from
most of tho Indian burinl places al
ready found and opened In various
parts of tho United States, in that it
was very much smaller than was usual
ly the caste. Although occasional iso
lated graves havo been discovered, U10
cperienco of previous archneologlcal
Investigations would havo led natural
ly to tho cpectation cf finding either
a very small group of graves, eaoli
containing one skeleton or several
skeletons, or a very large one embrac
ing hundreds of mirlals. In this caso
only 27 graves were discovered, al
though this number represented th3
burial cf several times as many In
dians. In the graves, which were probably
not earlier than the 17th century,
wore found many smaller specimens of
pottery, chiefly earthenware bowls In
which tho friends and vltitlvrs of the
departed warriors had placed what
they considered would be food
enough to last them during their jour
ney to the happy hunting grounds
one bowl in some canes having evi
dently boon considered sufllclent for
two warriors, while In other caEea a
single warrior, perhaps a very hungry
one during his lifetime, had been sup
plied with several. These bowln, in
interesting contrast with a somewhat
Bimllar custom that existed among the
European nations of antiquity. In
which the burled food vessels were
almost always broken In pieces beloro
burial, were nearly all unbroken.
Like the larger cooking pans, they
were mado of cloy in many canes,

of the small crook that still connects

tho larger and moro difficult cooking
pans, that it may have boon uu inher

GERMAN TOY INDUSTRY.
Heme Labor Is Being 8upptanted by
Large Factor!.
The toy industry of the Erzgeblrge,
or ore mountains, which has been de
veloping for centuries has been slow
ly drifting into economic difficulties,
according to a report of Consul Mon
aghan at Chemnitz. With tho appli
cation of steam power and modern
machinery to the production of toys
tho house Industry has gradual
ly been forced to the wall. With an
Increase In the price of wood and a
decrease In the price of finished prod
uct, those people cf the mountains
have been put Into a position where It
is necessary to toil night and day for a
meagre existence, which Is apparently
becoming more and more severe.
For some years the labor press of
this part of the country has busied It
self with a portrayal of the wretched
conditions existing among the peas
ants of the mountains, with the result
that an Investigation was recently
made by the industrial commission of
Freiburg, which largely substantiates
even the strong representations of the
labor organs. The main points of the
report of this commission may be
summarized as follows:
The number of- large establish
ments engaged In the manufacture cf
toys Is increasing. Tbls might be
considered prima facie as a welcome
sign wore It not lor the fact that the
toys are not manufactured upon the
regular factory plan with hired hands,
but are made by men who have rented
space and machines quite Independent
ly of one another,' and who form a
sort of voluntary association banded
together only for the sako of economy
In roof and equipment, but carrying
on their own separate bur.lnesscs. A
disinclination Is said to prevail among
the young men to enter a factory on
the basis of wage earners and be sub
jected to the immediate control, super
vision and direction of an employer,
rtathor than earn the higher Income af
forded by the factory wage, the young
men In the hills prefer a much more
meagre existence in the independence
and freedom ot their own homes. Be
cause cf the fact that the inhabitants
of the mountains make but few and
simple demands upon life, the real
wretchedness of their situation Is said
to be but rnrely fully appreciated.
The wake conditions existing In the
toy ludustry can be readily observed
from the following figures prepared
by the commission referred, to. The
most remunerative branch of the trade
affords a gross Income of from 24 to
40 marks t$3.71 to $9.52) per week,
one-half of which mny be considered
as profit. In other branches the net
Income Is as low as G to 0 marks
($1.42 to 12.14) per week. It must be
remembered that these Incomes are
not tho earnings of a single person,
but represent tho labor of entire fam
ilies.
How Inconceivably small the prlco
paid fcr certain kinds of toys Is con be
seen In tho caso of pencil boxes of the
cheapest quality, for which tho mnker
gets from 4S to fonts per gross, or
about 1 1-3 cents a dozen.
Tho dally meals of these people ore
reported by tho commission to be con
fined largely to potatoes, linseed dl,
bread and coffeo, and, at times, moat
on Sundays.
With the prlco of wood rising, toy
factories increasing in numbers in
other parts of tho country and tho
price of toys falling, It seems that tho
I'.ooplo of Erzseblrjro mut-t In their
Increasing wretchedness find some
other menns of sustenance. Export
ers of toys who operate large fuctorlcs
In Jhls no.'chborhood report good
business, and are of tho opinion that
tho hou.Ho Industry of the Erzgeblrgo
is doomed and that the peasants will
be forced to give tip their Independent
production and enter factories.
