PIETY FOR
AOM T is not unusual for people
H to keep their best house-
I O hold things the beat bed,
5 and chlnn for their guests;
S0C some keep for them their
fcest looks, tnnnners and words; some
ICO still farther and keep all their piety
for them. Not a bit of It do they use
Cor themselves or their families; It Is
never seen on ordinary occasions, and
o Is perhaps nil the nicer, and there
tn all the more of it for compnny.
Enough of it there surely is. If not a
surfeit. The visitor Is treated to it
with ft liberality like that of the West
ern housewife, who, on being told by
Iter minister that she might put less
molasses In his tea, insisted that 'if
fthe made it all molasses It wouldn't
be too good for him..
It was Mrs. Simpkins' parlor nice,
religious-looking parlor, very, A mon
strous great Bible, bound in fine mor
occo and gold, with a purple ribbon
book-mark, a yard long, dangling white
crucifixes, lay alone In seeming sacred
liess on the marble centre table. Three
certificates of life-membership in re
ligious societies hung in heavy gilt
frames upon the walls. No idle orna
ments or vain curiosities on the what
not, but Divine songs and sacred
liyrans, Baxter's Saints' Host, Taylor's
Holy Living and Hying, Howe's Bless
cdness of the Righteous books of ex
alted piety, that benr their renders
like angel wings to the very gates of
the beautiful city. Beside them were
choice piles of magazines, labelled
"Guide to Holiness."
The air of the place was still and
olemn, almost holy. Deacon Wilson
felt that it was while lie waited there
for Mrs. Simpkins. He took up a num
ber of the "Guide to Holiness." and
opened it. "Perfect Love," "Heaven
Below," "Living Below Our Privilege,"
be rend in the table of contents.
"What 'ft godly woman Sister Simp
kins Is!" he Bald to himself, and laid
the magazine in place, feeling himself
o far from ho'incss that the very titles
of the articles were discouraging to
Urn.
"I am glad there an some good peo
ple," lie added, looking r.rouud the
room, at the "parlor Bible," and the
life memberships, "yes, Sister Slnip
klns Is a very devoted womnn."
Mrs. Simpkins entered with sweet
nd placid countenance, nnd grave,
subdued manner, like one Just leaving
chapel service or closet meditation, and
In low, chastened tones, welcomed the
deacon, and assured him of her high
estimate of the privilege of Christian
communion, of the strength she de
rived from Christian association, the
comfort from Chrlstlnn sympathy.
The dencon had barely time to make
ft suitable response, when she in
quired: "And what is the state of Zion,
fleacon? What say the watchmen on
her walls?"
The question was general, and the
deacon was safe in the answer:
( "Few go in at the gates."
"And why? Why Is it?" exclaimed
Mrs. Simpkins, with an air and tone
of touching solicitude. "Why must
ve wait so long to see the spirit of
God poured out? Surely the fault is
In ourselves. The church Is living far
below her duty and her privilege. Too
ninny of us are not yet sanctified,
wholly sanetlfled-ono with the Lord.
Too many of us still cling to the world,
till have appetite for the fleshpots of
Egypt We must come out from the
world, and we must not look back."
"Oh!" groaned the good deacon, "I
feel sometimes that I am tho Achan in
the camp of Israel, the Jonah that hin
ders tho ship."
"Do you ever read the 'Guide to
Holiness?' " asked Mrs. Simpkins. when
she had fully delivered her opinions
on the condition and duty of the
church. The deacon confessed that he
had not "It's an excellent work, dea
con," said Mrs. Simpkins, with slightly
Increased warmth of manner. "I can
recommend it with entire confidence.
I have read it three years, and find it
very spiritual. Perhaps you would
like to read it. Take this last num
ber, if you would."
"Thank you, sister, not to-day.
Some other time, perhaps."
"The "york strenuously nrges the
doctrine of entire sanctlflcatlon: that
It Is the privilege of all Christians.
What do you think of it, deacon?"
queried Mrs. Simpkins.
"Ob, I don't know," sighed the good
man. "The command is, 'Be ye holy
as I nm holy,' but. oh, dear! sometimes
I'm afraid I haveu't even been Justl-fled-that
after all, I shall be a cast
away." "V,'e need faith, faith to lay hold on
the promises," urgud the unwavering
Wra. Simpkins.
"But my life Is so poor, sister,"
proaned the deacon. "I come so far
short in everything. The thing I would
not do, I do, and what I would, I do
not."
"I believe it is our privilege to live
above sin," began Mrs. Blmpkine, when
the door opened, and a smutty, uncared-for
little fellow, of half a dozen
years, put in his head.
"Yes, darling, you may taka oae off
the bureau. Jow don't dUturb mother
any more."
"I believe it Is our blessed privil
gc," resumed Mrs. Simpkins. "to live
above slu, to have Christ dwelling in
us continually, filling us with perfect
love, raising us above all doubts ami
fears, and strengthening us with the
nope or glory." , ,
"A blessed privilege!" echoed the
deacon, and rose to go.

"Don't think I'm persecuting yon,
wife, nor anything of the sort. I'm
glad you're a pious woman, and that's
one reason why I married you. Every
man likes to have a good wife. I
want a little of your P'ety myself;
and the children wouldn't be the
worse for some, nor Bridget neither.
Wo aren't deacons nor ministers, nor
saints, but we should like to be treated
in a sweet, heavenly way smetlnies,
"I thank you for this visit, deacon,"
said Mrs. Simpkins. "I think it is
good for the saints to speak often to
one another. Come again, soon, dea
con, and borrow my 'Guide to Holi
ness.' "
"Thank you, thank you," said the
kind-hearted deacon, hastening his
movements, seemingly nlnrmed at this
second mention of the magazine.
"Thank you. I nm glad we meet so
often in tho house of God, sister."
"I nm never willingly absent from
the means of grace." answered Mrs.
Simpkins with something like a glow
of satisfaction on her sweet face.
"I am glad you love God's worship,
sister. Good-by."
And the dencon took his lenve in no
way benefited by his visit, and feeling
that he had conferred no benefit. Mrs.
Simpkins was on spiritual heights too
far above him. He could uot touch
the hem of her garment
She flew upstairs to her nursery,
and snatched the baby from Bridget.
"Now go to your washing as quick
as you can, and try to have it done in
sonic kind of season for once. And
have your dinner cooked decently, for
once, if you can."
Not a word of thanks to the poor ser
vant for having held the baby so
long, while her work was lying undone
below stairs. What had so suddenly
changed Mrs. Simpkins' look nni man
ners? What had driven away her
sweetness nnd placidity, her heavenly
smile? How changed her voice was!
So keen and cutting. How angry she
looked as she called to her little son:
"Jimmy, come here!" The boy
obeyed. "Now don't you ever come
again to the parlor when I'm there
with company," she exclaimed to the
young intruder, as she cuffed him first
on one ear and then on the other,
making both ring. She did not call
him darling, then. "You're the worst
boy I ever saw," she went on. "How
many times have I told you not to
come to the parlor when I'm there
with any company? And yet you al
ways come. Just as sure as I am
there, in comes your frowsy head."
This was true, for tho child was
bright enough to know his opportunity.
The only sweet liberal time his moth
er ever had, was when she was under
the observation of compnny. Then,
for nppenranco sake," she would al
ways give him what bo asked for. He
always had to pay for it afterwards
In tingling cars and smarting flesh,
but ho was well accustomed, tough
ened, and did not mind them much.
This uusnlntly nnd unwholesome
treatment had only Just been admin
istered to Jimmy, when an odor of
burning food was perceptible.
"Bridget!" screamed Mrs. Simpkins;
"your soup is burning, Bridget!" No
answer; nnd leaving the baby with
Jimmy, Mrs. Simpkins flew to the
kitchen and snatched a kettle from
the stove. "What made you let the
soup burn?" she exclaimed, as Bridget
entered.
"I was on tho shed, ma'am."
"But you ought not to be ont of
your kitchen when you've anything on
the fire."
"But I had to hang out the clothes,
ma'am, or they wouldu't be dried. I
was so long with the baby that the
washing's far back, ma'am."
"I never saw anything like it. You've
always some excuse, no matter what
you do. Why didn't you set the soup
back while you were on the shed?"
"I did not think of it, Bure."
"And why didn't you think of It?
I've tried so hard to make a good girl
of you, and I declare I'm most tired
out."
"Well, I've thoughts of giving you
rest from me. There's no use in so
much said, and being so tired, all for
a sup o' broth."
"No words, Bridget; I never allow
my girls to answer back. It's bad
enough to have my things burut up,
without any impudence from you."
"You can look out for auother girl
to do your work. I can't suit you, and
you've leave to find one that can."
"How foolish in you, Bridget, to get
mad Just for nothing. It was my
place to get angry, and not yours. It
was my money that was burnt in the
soup."
"Ah, and there was no money burnt
at all, unci no loss of soup, rieltber
for the children and me'll have it all
to ate, burnt or not burnt as you
yourself kuowi well. And it's uot all
about the soup; there's enough more;
fretting and fussing from morning till
night, whenever yourself's in- the
house; and I'm running here for the
children, and there for yourself, and
me work to be done all the same, and
J9 never pleased, but always this -is
wrong and tha other ain't right, ant
me working till I can't hold me two
feet t'wunst to the floof for the pain,
and thin I've niver done the work
half well enough."
"If your are dissatisfied, yon had
better go, Bridget; but first consider
what it is to have a rood steady place,
with good religious people. You Irish
girls never know when you're well
off."
"And it's not well off any one Is,
that works in this house." answered
Bridget.
"I sha'n't listen to any more of your
Impudence. Bridget I wish you to keep
on with your work till I cnu get an
other girl," said Mrs. Simpkins.
There was something Indescribably
galling and oppressive in her tone and
mnnner, that roused the worst feel
ings the generous, good-natured Brid
get was capable of, and she dashed
the dipper from her hand to the floor
before Mrs. Simpkins had turned her
back.
Mr. Simpkins came home tired and
worn with business, nnd the first thing
that fell upon his ears was the dash of
the dipper and the next a complaint
from his wife.
"What worthless Milngs these ser
vants are!"
"What now?" he asked.
"Oh, Bridget has flared up."
"What's the matter?"
"She complains of her work."
"I don't much wonder. She's at It
every morning at five o'clock, and I
leave her hard at it when I go to bed,
and yet I don't believe it is ever
done."
"Well, whose fault is it. I should
like to know?" asked Mrs. Simpkins.
"It isn't mine, I know," answered
her husband; "and it don't seem to be
Bridget's."
"Then I s'pose you'll have it that It's
mine," responded the wife,
"I didn't say so."
"You might as well."
"Do you think so? Now whose
fault is it? All our girls complain of
being overworked, and scolded, and
underfed, and underpaid; nnd you
have the whole management of things
here. I leave all house matters to
you."
"And this Is what I get for my
management," interuptcd Mrs. Simp
kins. "But not all," responded her hus
band. "Yon get ft great reputation for
piety; n great deal of time to go to
meetings, male and female, sewing so
defies, maternal assoclaitons, anni
versaries, and every other religious
meeting, far nnd near, that you can
hear of. And you get money for
'Guides to Holiness,' and life member
ships, and great expensive frames to
hang their certificates in, thereby obey
ing the Divine command, 'not to let
your left hand know what your right
hand doeth,' all your good work done
secretly that you may be rewarded
openly."
"What has all this to do with Brid
get?" interrupted Mrs. Simpkins, a
little touched by the cutting irony.
"It has n great deal to do with her,"
answered her husband, "If it puts a
part of your work on her, or tires you
out so as to make you cross and un
reasonable with her, or if it makes you
pinch her in wages, or deny her in
food, or wrong her in any way; you'll
allow that, won't you?"
"Yes. if it does."
"Well, don't It? I ask the question.
"What would you have mo do more
than I do now I should like to
know."
"Ferhaps not more, but I would have
you do somewhat different. Y'ou can
make some equalization. Be as sweet
and angelic with Bridget as you are
with your deacons, as mild in the
nursery where only God and the chil
dren hear you, as you would bo if the
Maternal Association were here. Show
a little of your dcadncss to the world
and heavenly mlndedness when the
new fashrons come. Stop taking the
'Guide to Holiness,' and give the mon
ey to Bridget, as her rightful due.
and perhaps 'twould make is better.
I'm sure it wonld make us happier,
nnd you, too. Suppose you try and
give us a littlo more family piety.
"This i my first sermon, nnd I hope
it will be productive of good. There's
no company here, so I won't pretend
that it has been preached from a
sense of duty, but because I feel out
of patience r.ud Just like speaking my
whole mind."
Well, what did Mrs. Simpkins say in
answer? This only: that she was glad
there was no one in her own family to
bear him; that bud was glad there
were some people who had a good
opinion of her; that the Rev. Dr.
Smoothtongue hnd told some of the
church thut very week, he wished
there were a few more women Just
like her. Waverley Magazine.

"Farly Victorian" VVnlt'rlitll.
"Early . Victorian" is a term which
falls often from the lips of all who
have any concern with the making of
women's clothes In these days or the
dressing of women's hair. The "proud
