SUE’S MOTHER-IN-LAW.
"0 mammy, If ho only was tin orphan,
I would any yon to-morrow ; hut I luite—
I halt the Idea of a mothnr-ln-law.”
“You might poition her, my dear.

dryly remarked Mrs. Do (Iroot, a ntiitcfy
old lady, with nnow-whlto hair, and any
amount of Mochllu lace about nor throat
and wrist* over her nofl black Milk dross.
“But roally, you - dreadful old dear,
you know it will bo awful,” sighed Hue,
nooning her little hundM wearily through
the dark frlngPM above her forehead.
“My dear.” said Mra. Do (Iroot, “you
are spoaking in a very III bred way; but
let that rent. I have no idea that you
will ever be troubled with Mr. (Jrey’a
mother. You will nol marry him. A
girl who Ih daunted by a mother-in-law
iIoca not lovo tho soil enough to marry
him.”
Hue'll pretty foco flushed. Poor little
soul, she had flavor yet known what love
won; but she liked Mr. Urey well enough.

whom nho had always known: and whim

Blit here wan n reason for Hue, and
trusted her from her night; she woke in
the night to look at her; she was frantic
with terror if iHneaathreatened |her. Hho
had an artistic nature, but its sole ex
ercise was inventing (1 reuses and orna
ments lor Posy. I remember Jieing at
tho hills ns a child, and going to Posy's
room—a large airy room, witli two great
windows hxdcitig southward ; tho walls
wero white, with a deep cornice ol every
spring flower, painted to the life by no
Italian fresco-painter: the white carpet
was strewn with roses and violets, the
white-wood furniture decorated with
honeysuckles and clematis, iiaiuled by
Mrs. Hchuyler herself in clinging wreaths
and tendrils, with clusters of rose and
Ivory .bloom and wide blue blossoms
looking just lit to pick ; there were cur
tains oi white, soil woolen Mtufl; looped
up in creamy lolds by nil enameled fern
leaf on either side; ami everything rise
carried out in the same floral iashion.
even to the lily of pearl shell which lichi
her rings on tho toilet table ; but more
curious than all wits the child’s wardrobe,
which she displayed and I admit after
the frank custom of teii-y oar-old-girls.
There was a rose dress, the softest cash
mere, with scolloped bands overlying
each other on the skirt in declining
tints to tho waist, and tho sleeves wore
just edged with deep green velvet, which
also hound the throat and waist. It was
like a fancy-ball costume ; but Posy was
like a (airy) and the exquisite tints did
not look fanciful on her unreal Itcuuty.
Then there was a pansy dress, purple
velvet, with a gold buckle at Its belt,
and the skirt fallen in rich pleats that
seemed to form a rounded outline below
like tho edge of a flower. There was a
thumbergia costume, the skirt and
alcoves of tho dclicato bud which that
flower monopolize*. and a bodice of dark
brown velvet like the blossom's throat.”
“What follyl” exclaimed Hue.
“Yes; but very pretty (oily. And I
have not told you the half. 'J here was a
Illy dress, of China crape; a violet, ol
puriilo silk, soft and glossless; and act
ually a cardinal-flower, ot vivid scarlet
doth, that I thought then too splendid
to 1>ohorn; hut it was only for a skating
dress, Posy said.
“Hnogrew up very deliento, exquisite
and fr.igllo, but more and more lovely.
And then Tom saw her and loll in love.
It was alrangu to see Mrs Hchuyler. Hho
took Tom's state of mind with great
calm, ns it it were only natural and to Ini
expected. Posy had nover boon in so
doty; she was very young yet; but Mrs.
Hchuyler would have expected, if n«t de
manded, the same homage from overy
ono who saw her idol, lint when slm
discovered that Posy loved Tom and
wanted to mary him, she was heart-
smitten. Him could not entertain the
idea. Hho carried Posy away directly for
a round of summer travel; hut the girl
niiivd so visibly, grew so sad, mile,
languid, that her mother was terrified
ami brought her hack to the hills di

Hurry, Mrs. Tompcst had been at tho
west nursing a sister who was at death’s
door with consumption } and if Harry
had not said much uliout her to Hue it
was that other and more absorbing tlmmes

Mrs. Do drool, smiled when Husmi laid
her fair head in her lap mid recited to
her tlm tale of her engagement, for she

Him had other children besides Hue; but

“Hho may lie very nice to Harry, my
dear. Ho was Mr. Urey's mother to him.
I'm sure she can’t Ihi so disagreeable as
old Mm. Grey,” pouted Sue, who was a
little spoiled, to toll the truth.
“Susan.” said Mrs. Do ttroot, with
coiisideralilo gravity, “ I want you to

Tom, as lio impolitoly expressed it, like
a mad cat, it he ever spotco impatiently
to his wife or forgot one attention duo to
her. lie Isiro it awhile very patiently
tor Posy's sake; but human nature is
not all enduring, mid by and by lie u
great plainness of speech, to say the least,
with Sirs. Hchuyler. Then Posy became
very unhappy. Hho was consumptive
like her father, and her life always trout-
hied Qti as delicate u stem as a harebell
flower. Hho might have lived
years in |h’Ucc mid sunshine, but the
stormy atmosphere of home gave her no
rest. Her mother still interfered with
all she did, even when she saw he
drooping day by day. If Tom took lie
away for a journey, the mother insisted
on going too, and Posy could not have
the heart to refuse. But traveling was
no rest to cither mother or child, and it
wus torment to Tom, who begun to e<
prebend the situation. Poor little Posy I
she faded before their eyes like a weary
never |*aby, tailing asleep one day In Toni’s
arms, mid wearing after death so radiant
a look of rest ami peace that l have
novorfforgottcii it. Mr.jSchuylor followed
her quickly, worn out by grief and
remorse; for Tom, in the first agony of
his loss, told her what Dr. Kvmtssaid,
that |NUiee and quiet might have saved
tholr darling. Tom hated her name to
his dying day, and never married again,
because lie said one iiiotlicr-iu law was
enough tor a lifetime.”
“But, tnamnui, that was an extreme
r mutter?
“No; but 1 want
to treat your
mother-in-law as one lady should treat
another. Don't recriminate if she talks
at you, for that is vulgar—ill-bred in the
extreme. Don’t give up your just posi
tion, either with your husband or in tin*
family. Respect yourself, Hue, and you
fores respect from others.”
“O dear I l wish there weren’t any
mothers-in-law in tho world?” peevishly
ejaculated the girl.
“Then I should bo exterminated with
the rest/' smiled her mother.
“But you are so different, mammy.’
“1 hod an awful lesson, Hue. when 1
«young. You know your uncle T

And hero tho wrstah went off Into an-
othet fit of laughter more irrepressible
than the first.
Sua flushed to the temples. “Harry,
what arc you laughing at?” she de
manded.

Poor little Hunan ! life liecnmo a disnp-
(Miintrncnt to her. Mrs. Tempest never
went Into the kitchen, never sniffed at
her new daughter's inexperience or ig
norance, interfered with housekeeping,
or found fault with the housekeepers.
Hho was simply n guestin her son’s home,
ready to give advice and assistance,
when it was linked, with wonderful wis
dom and judgment, but neverintrudlng.
If her children wanted her society they
could always have it for tho asking; if
they did not she was neither hurt nor
angry. Hlie knew all that a third person
is not always welcome, however dear;
and she remembered—what woman so
often forget—that her son was now a
grown man, with Ills own homo and
family, and deserving a certain respect
as such ; not a Im»v to be lectured, Scold
ed, humored, and snapped at ns if he
were ten years old, and still under
parental government.
Hho learned, too, to love Hue, the
sweet-nutiirod, high-spirited, and im
pulsive creature, for herself,'na well hs for
Harry’s sake ; and Hunan before tho two
months were gone had called her
“mother” with all her heart, and learned

“O mother!” exclaimed she ono day
as Mrs. Tempest sat Ixmide her soothing
her with tender ways nnd soft bands in
tlm anguish of a racking headache, “how
could I ever think motliers in-law were
dreadful?”
Mrs. Tempest laughed. “My dear

Nearly 2,000 yearn ago Charm is and
Antonins Musa prescribed cold water in

The water-works of Troy compare fa
vorably with those of most other cities
in the country of the same size. They
were established in 1883. but the law
forming the present commission was not
passed until 18G0. A water works com
pany was organized in the village of Troy
it*early as 1812, but after an unsuccessful
attempt to make the effort a financial
success the plan was abandoned. The
cost ot the present water-works to date
aggregates altout 1480,000, not including
linary repairs. The storage capacity
of the various reservois nnd hue
nearly 800,000,000 gallons and the daily
consumption between 3,000,000 ami f>’-
000,000 gallons. The height of the dis
tributing reservoir above the level of the
Hudson is ninety fi'?\, while the Bruns
wick lake is 300 feet above the same
level. This growth of the city and th*
demand for inerea*ed supply demonstrate
the fact that the founders of the present
water-works erred in not taking water
from the PoestetiKlU in the first instance.
