|l CHAPTER I. ' THE NEWCOMERS. "If you please, mum," said tho voice 1 of a domestic from somewhero round the angle of the door, "No. 8 is moving in." Two little old ladies, who wero sitting at either side of a table, sprang to their feet with ejaculations of interest and rushed to tho window of tho sitting room. ; Take care, Monica, dear," said one, 1 shrouding herself in the laco curtain; "don't let-them seo us." "No, no, Bertha. Wo must not give them reason to say that their neighbors are inquisitive. But I think that we are safe if wo stand like this." Tho open window looked out upon a sloping lawn, well trimmed and pleas ant, with fuzzy rosebushes and a star shaped bed of sweet william. It was y bounded by a low wooden fence, which screened it off from a broad modern new metaled road. At tho other sido of this road were three large, detached, deep bodied villas, with peaky eves and small wooden balconies, each standing in its own little square of grass and of flowers. | All three were equally ®ew, but Nos. i 1 and 3 were curtained and sedate, with a human sociable look to them, while No. 3, with yawning door and unkempt garden, hadapparently only just received its furniture and made itself ready for its occupants. A 4-wlieeler had driven up to tho gate, and it was at this that the old ladies, peeping out birdliko from the curtains, directed an eager and ques tioning gaze. Tho cabman had descended, and tho passengers within were handing out the articles which they desired him to carry up to the house. He stood red faced and * blinking, with his crooked arms out * stretched, while a male hand, protruding from tho window, kept piling up upon him a series of articles, tho sight of which filled tho curious old ladies with bewilderment. "My goodness me!" cried Monica, the smaller, the drier aud the more wizened of the pair. "What do you call that, Bertha? It looks to mo like four batter puddings." "Those are what the young men box each other with," said Bertha, with a conscious air of superior worldly knowl edge. "And those?"- Two great bottle shaped pieces of yel low, shining wood had been heaped upon tho cabman. "Oh, I don't know what those are," | confessed Bertha. Indian clubs had nev- ' or before obtruded themselves upon her j peaceful and very feminine existence. These mysterious articles were fol- i lowed, however, by others which wero more within their range of comprehen sion—by a pair of dumbbells, a purple j cricket bag, a set of golf clubs and a tennis racket. Finally, when the cabman, all top heavy anil bristling, hail staggered off up the garden path, tbero emerged in a very leisurely way from the cab a big, powerfully built young man, with a bull pup under ono arm and a pink sporting paper in his hand. The paper ho crammed into the pocket of his light yellow dust coat auil extended his hand as if to assist some one else from the vehicle. To the surprise of the two old ladies, howover, the only thing which his open palm received was a violent slap, and a tall lady bounded unassisted out of the cab. With a regal wave she mo tioned tho young man toward the door, and then with one hand upon her hip she mood in a careless, lounging attitude by tho gate, kicking her too against tho wall and listlessly awaiting the return of the driver. As she turned slowly round and the sunshine struck upon her face, the two watchers were amazed to soo that this very active and energetic lady was fur from being in her first youth, so far that eho had certainly como of ago again since she first passed that landmark in life's journey. Her finely chiseled, clean cut face, with something red Indian about the firm mouth and strongly marked cheekbones, showed even at that dis tance traces of tho friction of tho passing years. And yet sho was very handsome. Her features were as firm in repose as those of a Greek bust, and her great, dark eyes were arched over by two brows so black, so thick and so delicately curved that tho eye turned away from the harsher details of tho faco to marvel at their grace and strength. Her figure, too, was as straight as a dart—a little portly perhaps, but curving into magnificent outlines, which were half concealed and half accentuated by Ino strange costume which she wore. Her hair, black but plentifully shot with gray, wus brushed plainly back from her high forehead and was gathered under a ►mall round felt hat, like that of a man, with one sprig of feather in the band as a concession to her sex. A double breasted jacket of some dark friezeliko material fitted closely to her figure, while her straight blue skirt, nntrimmeil and un gathereil, was cut so short that the-lower curve of her finely turned legs was plain ly visible beneath it, terminating in a pair of broad, flat, low heeled and square toed shoes. Such was the lady who lounged at the gate of No. 8 under the curious eyes of her two opposite neigh bors. But if her conduct and appearance had already somewhat jarred upon their lim ited and precise sense of the fitness of things, what were they to think of the next little act in this tableau vivant? The cabman, red and heavy jowled, had r e back from his labors and held out hand for his fare. Tho lady passed him a coin, thero was a moment of mum bling and gesticulating, and suddenly she had him with both hands by the red cravat which girt his neck and was shak ing him as a terrier would a rat. Right across tho pavement she thrust him, and pushing him up against the wheel she banged his head three several times against the side of his own vehicle. Right across the pavement she thrust him. "Can I be of any uso to you, aunt?" asked the large youth, framing himself in tho open doorway. "Not the slightest,"' panted the en raged lady. "Thero, you low blackguard, that will teach you to bo impertinent to a lady." Tho cabman looked helplessly about him with a bewildered, questioning gaze, as one to whom alone of all men this un heard of and extraordinary thing had happened. Then rubbing his head he mounted slowly onto tho box and drove away with an uptossed hand appealing to the universe. Tho lady smoothed down her dress, pushed back her hair under her little felt hat and strode in through tho hall door, which was closed behind her. As with a whisk her short skirts van ished into the darkness tho two specta tors—Miss Bertha and Miss Monica Wil liams—sat looking at each other in speechless amazement. For 50 years they had peeped through that little window and across that trim garden, but never yet had such a sight as this come to con found them. "I wish," said Monica at last, "that wo had kept tho field." "I am suro I wish wo had," answered her sister. CHAPTER 11. BREAKING THE ICE. The cottage from tho window of which tho Misses Williams had looked out stands, and has stood for many a year, in that pleasant suburban district which lies bewecn Norwood, Anerloy and For ; ost Hill. Long beforo there had boon a thought of a township there, when tho metropolis was still quite a distant thing, old Mr. Williams hail inhabited "The Brambles," as the little house was called, and had owned all tho fields about it. | Six or eight such cottages scattered over a rolling countryside wore all tho houses to bo found thero in the days when tho century was young. From afar, when tho breeze came from tho north, the dull, low roar of the great city might bo heard like the breaking of tho tide of life, while along tho horizon might bo seen the dim curtain of smoke, tho grim spray which that tide threw up. Gradually, however, as the years passed, tho city had thrown out a long brick feeler here and tliore, curving, ex tending and coalescing, until at last the little cottages had been grip[>cd round by these red tentacles and had been ab sorbed to make room for tho modern vil la. Field by field tho estate of old Mr. Williams had been sold to the specula tive builder and had borno rich cropß of snug suburlgm dwellings arranged in curving crescents and treo lined avenues. Tho father had passed away before his cottage was entirely bricked round, but his two daughters, to whom the property had descended, lived to see tho last ves tigo of country taken from them. For years they had clung to tho one field which faced their windows, and it was only nfter much argument and many heartburnings that they had at hist consented that it should share the fate of tho others. A broad road was driven through their quiet domain, the quarter was renamed "The Wilderness," and three square, staring, uncompromis ing villas began to sprout up on tho oth er side. With sore hearts tho two shy little old maids watched their steady progress and speculated as to what fash ion of neighbors chance would bring into tho little nook which had always been their own. And at last they were all three finished. Wooden balconies and overliunging eaves had been added to them, so that, in tho language of tho advertisement, thero were vacant three eligible Swiss built villas, with 10 rooms, no basement, elec tric bells, hot ami cold water and every modern convenience, including a com mon tennis lawn, to bo lot at £IOO a year or £I,OOO purchase. So tempting an offer did not long remain open. Within a few weeks the card had vanished from No. 1, and it was known that Admiral Hay Denver, V. C., C. 8., with Mrs. Hay Denver and their only son, .was about to move into it. Tho news brought peace to tho hearts of tho Williams sisters. They had lived with a settled conviction that Homo wild, impossible colony, some shouting, singing family of madcaps, would break in upon their peace. This establishment at least was irreproacha ble. A reference to "Mon of the Time" showed them that Admiral Hay Denver was a most distinguished officer who had begun his activo career at Bomar sund and had ended it at Alexandria, having managed between these two epi sodes to see as much service as any man of his years. From tho Taku forts and the Shannon brigade to dhow harrying off Zanzibar tjiero was no variety of naval work which did not appear in his record, whilo tho Victoria cross and tho Albert medal for saving life vouched for it that in peace as in war his courage was still of the same true temper. Clear ly a very eligible neighbor this, the more so as they had been confidentially assured by the estate agent that Mr. Harold Den ver, tho son, was a most quiet young gentleman, and that he was busy from morning to night on theßtock Exchange. Tho Hay Delivers had hardly moved in before No. 3 also struck its plac ard, and again tho ladies found that they had no reason to bo discontented with their neighbors. Dr. Balthazar Walker was a very well known naino in tho medical world. Did not his qualifi cations, his memberships and the record of his writings fill a long half column in The Medical Directory from his first lit tle paper on the "Gouty Diathesis" in 1859 to. liis exhaustive treatise upon "Af fections of tho Vaso-Motor System" in 1884? A successful medical career which promised to end in a presidentship of a college and a baronetcy had been cut short by his sudden inheritance of a con siderable sum from a grateful patient, which had rendered him independent for life and had enabled him to turn his at tention to tho more scientific part of his profession, which had always had a greater charm for him than its more practical ami commercial aspect. To this end he had given up his houso in Weymouth street and had taken this opportunity of moving himself, his scientific instruments and his two charming daughters (ho had been a wid ower for soino years) into the moro peaceful atmosphere of Norwood. There was thus but one villa unoccu pied, and it was no wonder that tho two maiden ladies watched with a keen in terest, which deepened into a dire ap prehension, tho curious incidents which heralded the coming of the new tenants. They had already learned from tho agent that the family consisted of two only, Mrs. Westmacott, a widow, and her nephew, Charles Westmacott. How simple and how select it had sounded! Who could have foreseen from it theso fearful potents which seemed to threaten violence and discord among tho dwellers in The Wilderness? Again tho two old maids cried in heartfelt chorus that they wished they had not sold their field. "Well, at least, Monica," remarked Bertha as they sat over their teacups that afternoon, "however strango these people may bo, it is our duty to bo as po lito to them as to the others." "Most certainly," acquiesced her sister. "Since we have called upon Mrs. Hay Denver and upon the Misses Walker, we must call upon this Mrs. Westmacott also." "Certainly, dear. As long as they are living upon our land I feel as if they wero in a sense our guests, and that it is our duty to welcome thein." "Then wo shall call tomorrow," said Bertha, with decision. "Yes, dear, we shall. But, oh, I wish it was over!" At 4 o'clock on the next day tho two maiden ladies set off upon their hospita ble errand. In their stiff crackling dresses of black silk, with jet bespangled jackets and little rows of cylindrical gray curls drooping down' on either side of their black bonnets, they looked liko two old fashion plates which had wandered off into tlio wrong decade. Half curious and half fearful, they knocked at tho door of No. il, which was instantly opened by a redheaded pago boy. Yes, Mrs. Westmacott was at home. 110 ushered them into the front room, furnished as a drawing room, where in spite of tho line spring weather a largo fire was burning in tho grate. The boy took their cards, and then, as they sat down together upon a settee, ho sot their nerves in a thrill by darting behind a curtain with a shrill cry and prodding at something with his foot. Tho bull pup which they had seen upon tho day before bolted from his hiding place and scuttled snarling from the room. "It wants to get at Eliza," said tho youth in a confidential whisper. "Mas ter says she would give him more'n ho brought." Ho smiled affably at tho two little stiff black figures and departed in search of his mistress. "What—what did ho say?" gast)ed Bertha. 1 "Something about a— Oh, goodness gracious! Oh, Bertha! Oh, merciful heavens! Oh, help, help, help, help, help!" Tfttwo sisters had bounded on to tho anil stood there with star ing eyesTind skirts gathered in whilo they filled tho whole house with their yells. Out of a high wickerwork bas ket which stood by tho fire thero had risen a flat, diamond shaped head with ! wicked green eyes, which came flicker ; ing upward, waving gently from sido to side, until a foot or more of glossy, scaly ! neck was visible. Slowly the vicious head came floating up, while at every | oscillation a fresh burst of shrieks came i from the settee. "What in the name of mischief!" cried a voice, and thero was tho mistress of 1 the house standing in tho doorway. Her gaze at first had merely taken in the fact that two strangers woro Btanding scream ing upon her red plush sofa. A glanco at the fireplace, however, showed her the cause of tho terror, and she burst into a hearty fit of laughter. "Charley," she shouted, "here's Eliza misbehaving again." "I'll settle her," answered a masculine voice, and the young man dashed into the room. He had a brown horsecloth ' in his hand, which he threw over tho basket, ma! iug it fust with a piece of twine sp as to effectually imprison its in- i mate, while his aunt ran across to reas sure her visitors, i "It i 3 only a rock snake," sho ex . plained. I "Oh, Bertha!" "Oh, Monica!" gasped I the poor exhausted gentlewomen. "She's hutching out some eggs. That is why we have the fire. Eliza always iloes better when she is warm. She is a sweet, gentle creature, but no doubt she thought that you had designs upon her eggs. I supposo that you did not touch any of them?" "Oh, lot us get away, Bertha!" cried Monica, with herthin black gloved hands thrown forward in abhorrence. "Not away, but into the next room," said Mrs. Westmacott with thoairofone whoso word was law. "This way, if you please! It is less warm here." Sho led the way into a very handsomely appoint ed library, with three great cases of books, and upon the fourth side a long yellow table littered over with papers and scientific instruments. "Sit here, and you there." she continued. "That is right. Now, let me see, which of you is Miss Williams and which Miss Bertha Williams?" "I am Miss Williams," said Monica, still palpitating and glancing furtively about in dread of some new horror. "And you live, as I understand, over at the pretty little cottage. It is very nice of you to cull so early. I don't sup poso that we shall get on, but still the intention is equally good." She crossed her legs and leaned her bnk against the marble mantelpiece. "We thought that perhaps wo might bo of Eoino assistance," said Bertha tim idly. "If there is anything which we could do to make you feel raoro at home" "Oh, thank you; I am too old a trav eler to feel anything but at home wher ever I go. I've just come back from a few months in the Marquesas islands, where I had a very pleasant visit. That was where 4 got Eliza. In many re spects the Marquesas islands now lead the world." "Dear me!" ejaculated Miss Williams "In what respect?" "In the relation of the sexes. They have worked out tho great problem upon thoir own lines, and their isolated geo graphical position has helped them to come to a conclusion of their own. The woman there is, as she should be, in ev ery way the absolute equal of the male. Come in, Charles, and sit down. Is Eliza all right?" "All right, aunt." "These are our neighbors, the Misses Williams. Perhaps they will have some Btout. You might bring in a couple of bottles, Charles." "No, no, thank you! None for us!" cried her two visitors earnestly. "Oh, help, htlpl" "No? I am sorry that I have no'tea to offer you. I look upon tho subserviency of woman us largely due to her abandon ing nutritious drinks aud invigorating exercises to the male. I do neither." Sho picked up a pair of 15-pound dumbbells from beside tho fireplace and swung them lightly about her head. "You seo what may be done on stout," said she. "But don't you think," the older Miss Williams suggested timidly—"don't you think, Mrs. Westmacott, that woman has a mission of her own?" The lady of tho house dropped her dumbbells with a crash upon the floor. "Tho old cant!" sho cried. "The old shibboleth! What is this mission which is reserved for woman? All that is hum ble, that is mean, that is BOUI killing, that is so contemptiblo and so ill paid that none other will touch it. All that is woman's mission. And who imposed these limitations upon her? Who cooped her up within this narrow sphere? Was it Providence? Was it nature? No, it was tho arch enemy. It was man." "Oh, I say, auntie," drawled out her nephew. "It was man, Charles. It was you and your fellows. I say that woman is a colossal monument to the selfishness of man. What is all this boasted chivalry, these fine words and vague phrases? Where is it when we wish to put it to tho test? Man in tho abstract will do anything to help a woman, of course. How does it work when his pocket is touched? Where is his chivalry then? Will the doctors help her to qualify? Will the lawyers help her to be callod to tho bar? Will tho clergy tolerate her in tho church? Oh, it is close your ranks then and refer poor woman to her mis sion! Her mission! To bo thankful for coppers und not to interfero with tho men while they grabblo for gold like swine round a trough—that is man's reading of tho mission of woman. You may sit there and sneef, Charles, whilo you look upon your victim, but you know that it is truth, every word of it." Terrified as they were by this sudden torrent of words, tho two gentlewomen could not but smile at tho sight of the fiery, domineering victim and tho big, apologetic representative of mankind who sat meekly bearing all the sins of his sex. Tho lady struck a match, whipped a cigaretto from a caseupon tho mantelpiece und began to draw the smoke into her lungs. "I find it very soothing when my nerves nre at all ruffled," she explained. "You don't smoke? Ah, you miss one of the purest of pleasures—one of the few pleasures which is without a reaction." Miss Williams smoothed out her black silken lap. "It is a pleasure," sho said, with some approach to self assertion, "which Bertha and I aro rather too old fashioned to enjoy." "No doubt. It would probably make you very ill if you attempted it. By tho way, I hope that yon will come to som of our guild meetings. I shall see tha tickots are sent you." "Your guild!" "It is not yet formed, but I shall los no tirno in forming a committee. It i my habit to establish a branch of th Emancipation guild wherever I go Thcro is a Mrs. Sanderson in Anerle; who is already one of the emancipated so that I have a nucleus. It is only hi organized resistance, Miss Williams that we caii hope to hold our owl against the selfish sex. Must you go then?" "Yes, we have one or two other visit! pay," said the elder sister. "Yoi will, lam sure, excuse us. I hope that you will find Norwood a pleasant res! dence." "All places are to me simply a battle field," she answered, gripping first one and then the other with a grip which crumpled up their little thin fingers. "The days for work and healthful exer cise, the evenings to Browning and high discourse, eh, Charles? Goodbyl" She came to tho door with them, and as they glanced back they saw her still standing there with the yellow bull pup cuddled up under one forearm and tho thin blue reek of her cigarette ascending from her lips. Oh, what a dreadful, dreadful worn an!" whispered sister Bertha as they hurried down the street. "Thank good ness that it is over." "But she'll return tho visit," answer ed the other. "I think that we had bet ter tell Mary that we are not at homo." [TO UE CONTINUED ON THURSDAY.] For Mother's Nuke. Littlo Bossio was 110 "goody goody" child, but ono who would no doubt have dono her share in scrambling for the front rank in a street fight, or in thrust ing herself forward when anything good was to bo had. Yet her childish nature held within it seeds of heroism and feel ing of which many a person more fa vored by fortuno is destitute. A tenement fire started at midnight in New York city, and many of the ten ants were killed in attempting to reach tho ground. On the fourth floor the firemen found a man penned in with his little girl and helped them- to the win dow. As they were handing out the child sho suddenly broke away from them and stepped back into the smoke, which seemed to hide certain death with in its folds. The firemen returned and groped about, shouting for her to come back. Half way across tho room they came upon her, gasping and nearly smothered, dragging a doll's trunk over the floor. "I couldn't leave it," sho said, thrust ing it at the men as they soized her. "My mother" Then they flung tho box nngrily through tho window. It fell crashing on tho sidewalk, broke open, and revealed no doll or finery, but tho deed for her dead mother's grave. Little Bessie was only 13, but sho had not forgotten her trust.—Youth's Companion. The Eggshell Child. To make un amusing toy out of an egg follow these directions: Make a til*)- hole with a pin or large needlo in each end of an egg. By blowing into one of the holes tho "inards"of tho egg will all pass out through tho hole in the other end. Then through the hole in tho large end pour a few grains of glue and lead. Cau- tiously heat this over the stove, and when the glue Is melted allow it to cool in the smaller end. This of course fnstens the lead to the smaller end and causes the egg to stand always on its point. Paint on ono side a crying face, on the other a smiling ono. The little faco is very charming bocauso of the rocking of the egg in seeking its balanco. A Curious Tree. Thero is a troo in the West Indies that the natives say "grows dishes!" It looks liko an apple tree. They call it tho cala bash. It bears very queer leaves and large white blossoms that grow right from the trunk and larger branches. After the flower comes tho fruit, just us our apples or peaches do. But this fruit is in the shape of a gourd, only stronger and much larger, sometimes a foot in diam eter. Now, seo what a use the people of that country make of this fruit. Tho shell is so hard that all sorts of big and little dishes and drinking cups can be carved out of it. Even pots and kettles are made and used over the fire, but of course they cannot last as long as our iron ones. Is not this a serviceable tree? No wonder the natives are proud of it. Montreal Star. A Dog That Asked For Aid. A short time ago Nero was walking up Border street, East Boston, limping bad ly. When he got to Mason's lumber mills, the doors of which are always I open, he entered, approached one of the j men and held up his injured paw. Nero I has not a very pleasant looking faco, and the man did not offer to touch him, but I called on him to "go out." The dog walk- j ed as far away as the door, and turning around came back and again held up his wounded foot. The man stopped his j work, and gently taking hold of the paw, found a safety pin imbedded deeply in the flesh. Ho extracted the pin, tho dog wincing at the pain, and when ho got it out the dog licked his paw and then fawned about his surgeon. Shortly aft- I erward he took his departure as if noth- i ing had happened.—Boston Herald. I CASTOR IA for Infants and Children.
