TER PISGUISED ELEIRES§
BY JENNIE LANE.
Miss Vernon sat thoughtfully at her wiq
dow plunged in deep thought. This need
be scarcely wondered at, for the question up
on which she was pondering affected her
nearly.
She was an heiress, having come into pos
session, at her ihajovity, of fifty thousand
dollars.
She will
and this, as was nett:vat:as usual, was con
siderably epgerated, brought her suitors in
plenty. Among tbm'she tqade ehome of
W~lhapt Wiasor, and in la iew weeks they
wets to be ;Refried. .
Willful* was eagaged in the wholesale.
°letting tipsiness, add had , the reputation et
an aetivq, idiocy man Of business. He was
of good appearance, and so far. as could be
judgeti, wait a good match for the heiress.—
Nothing to his prejudice bad come to the
ears efaias Vernon until the day b,efore---
A poor woman heti come to the door in evi
dent poverty, and asked for relief. On be
ing questioned, she said she. , had been em
ployed in waking hoop skirts at twelve cents
apiece for wholesale dealers- , -that after mak.
ing a 4ozen find carrying them to the store,
she had been toughly told th at
, they were
spelled and that nothing could be paid for
the work; but that she might have some
more it tate would - agree to maNe them better.
She addelf that ibis was one of the small
ways in which the firm made money out of
poor Wonieri, by pretending that their .work
was nnsatisfaeorily done, when really, no
fault could reasonably be foteid.
The sum, swag as it was, of which she bad
been defrauded, was all important to her, as
it represented nearly a week's work.
'Only a dollar and t'orty four cents for a
week's work exelaitued Iflisa Vernon in
dismay.
'That's all,' s.aid the , poor woman.
'How, then, do yon live ?'
'lt, cab biqtly 11e called living. , .kt's just
barely enough to keep body awl sohl togeth•
er,' said the poor woman.
•Aud who is this exto.tioner that first
offers you etarvation, wages then defrauds
you of them r asked Miss Vernon very in
dignaotly•
Wittaor.'
'I can hardly believe this. I know the
gentleman,
'lt is trtke, and.ityon vrill investialite the
matter you, will find ‘ it.to be so.
'I will investigate the •mutter. Here is
five dollars for your present needn„ Come
here to•morrow at this time, and e l Ray have
some 'work for yoa,to do''
The poor woman •departed. invoking bless
ings upon the heiress,
Wi(l look 'into' this,' said Margaret Ver
non, resiAniell, 'and if it proves' true the en
gagement between William W insor and
,
bp betoken. I will not give loped
to ging z man.
.• said Miss Vernon, the next morn
ing, to the chambermaid, 'have yea, au old
dress Rod shahby'bounet,'yon can lend me T
lave got some that are so poor that I
am not going to wear them again,' said Noisy,
surprised at such an inquiry : .
you, lend them to me?' •
1 0f•oourse,Bliss; but what would the likes
of you want with such old clothes r.
-..::little tun,
that is - all,' sald Miss Vernon.
Titingoing to disg uise myself and see it I
can deceive somebody. 0
,With, this ex,plauatiou Nancy was content
.
and. produced the clothes.
Kiss Vernon put them on and in addition,
burrowed of another of the servants a thict
green veil, somewhat the worse for wev, and
thud set out-on her mission. No one, in her
disguise. would have' iccognized, the usually
elegant tied richly dressed heiress Mss
garet Vernon.
*iris 'Yerntie slipped out of the , basement
door and took tier way to a , large store. on
which was inseribed the _name • of William,
Wieser in large gilt letters,
?,,he entered, nod after a while's clerk,

About to bogie later, the pool' woman

'That is trite, and they' froiii' the,

'Thank you,' Miss, you Ore so vet:y1;101 1
Sew them as beaiiy as possible. h' will
go to see whether they will be rejected as
poor work.' •
'Yes,
.Miss Verve, T. will take paini with
thein:
Three days later the "poor woman had the,
work completed. Miss Vernon paid her for
them and requested her to call the next day
'Nancy,' said the heiress, after her pro
tege had departed, shall wish to borrow
your old clothes again.'
'Certainly, Mies,' said Nancy, 'if it is not
ashamed ye are to appear in such tninrable
rags.'
No one will knoW me. Nancy'
'Sure, Miss, you one take them whenever
you like.'
"I — dontt- think-I shall -need__thern_ .
Nancy. but thank yon all the same.
Not long afterwatiis Miss 'Vernon in her
shabby disguise, entered the establishment
of William %%Incisor with the bundle of
shirts Auder her arta.
•She walked up to the counter and laid
thew down.
• W hat have you got there ?' demanded a
pert young oterk.
'Some work, sir,' said Mies Vernon, very
humbl • .
ell, why on t you oxen t e un o
said the young mac, picking his, teeth with
his knife.
Miss Vernon did.ao.
The young wan deigned to tumble over
the shirts, and aneeringly•glanoing at them
carelessly.
'Shocking shocking l' he said.
'What's the cuatter, sir 7'
'They are wretchedly sewed. That's
what's the matter. How do you expect we
re_going_tosell such shirts as these?'
'l'm sure I thought they were well done,'
said Miss Vernon.
'You thought, did you?' repeated the
clerk, mookieg her. 'Well, I think differ
ently, and that's all about it. We -- shan't
Fay for those shirts, They will• have to- be
sold at a loss.'
'But what shall I do ?' asked Miss Ver
u.on, in seeming distress. .
'That's your business, not mine.. , • We will
try you once more and 'give lon • another
half 'dozen shifts- If they are 'done better
you will be paid for them.'
'These arc, done well,' said Miss Vernon
savagely scotching tbo bundle from the
counter, (and I will show them to your em
ployer.'
to the indignation of the clerk, ho • was
not used iusuch independence in the Door'
women who worked for the ostablishmont,
Miss 'Vernon took the shirts to another part .

Bei himself. 1 ' • 7 •
'Mr. said she. 'your clerk will

‘0,13,,y0u ore on your high horse, are you?

That evening was the one which William
Witmer tioustlly spent' with his betrothed.

warmly, as usual, to greet,Milis Vernon.
