Old Mr. Brown stood in his pri vate office, with his back to the fire and his coat tails balanced in cith er hand. He was a bald-headed old gentleman with a ruddy complex ion, keen black eyes, and leg-of- mutton whiskers which were white as snow. And Miss Nelly Torrance sat looking at him timidly from the depths of the big armchair in which he had !>eckoned her to seat her self. “So you are my cousin Adrian’s dtaghter?” said he after a long pause. “Yes,” said Nelly, wondering what was in all those mysterious tin box es, and whether the monster iron safe was full of gold and silvei ptec s. “And you want something to do?” “Y *s, please!" “ttu n^it!" said Mr. Brown. Nolle glanced shyly up into hiH fioo. Bitshiallel with suite spir it, “l atn n it asking for charity. I ain willing to w irk for my bread!" “You mean that you would like to daub canvas, or sew impossible yel- ilow sunflowers on green .plush screens,” satirically observed the •old gentleman. “I don’t call that \work!” “Nor I, either,” retorted Nelly. “Then, what do yon mean?” said Mr. Brown. “I mean that I shall he glad, to undertake any sort of honest work, by means of which I can earn my own living.” “Humph!" again interjected Mr. Brown. “Can you cook ?” ‘ Yes,” Nelly answered. “I don’t believe it!” “But I can.” “Very well,” said Mr. Brown, re leasing his coat-tails and sitting down at his dqsk as if the question were definitely disposed of. “My cook went away this morning. I haven’t engaged any one in her place. You m'ay com i this after noon and see what you can do for me.” Mr. Brown fully expected that his young cousin would recoil indig nantly from this proposal, but she did nothing of the sort. She simply said, “Yes, Cousin John,” and asked him for his private address. “Mind you’re punctual, my dear,” said he as lie handed her the penciled card. “I am always punctual,” calmly responded Nelly. . Mr. Brown watched her out of the office with a quizzical twinkle in the corner of his eyes. “She won’t come,” he said to him self. “I’ve seen the last of my fine relation.” And Nelly Torrance went home to a little second-tiior room, the cheapest the willow and her daugh ters could find. Mrs. Adrian Torrance was .dress ed in black, a fair delicate piece of human china, who had been like the lillles of the field, in that site toiled not, neither did she spin, and Lucet ta, the elder daughter, was trying, unsuccessful)v enough, to trim a blank crape bonuet by the window. They had come up from the coun try at Lucetta’s suggestion to ap peal, in their poverty, to this rich cousin ot the dead father and hus band, but none of them anticipated any very satisfactory results from the experiment, “These rich people are always mi serly,” said Mips Lucetta. “And I’ve understood,” sighed the gentle little widow, “that he was not pleased when poor tlear Adrian married me instead of Miss Goldbags, the rich pawnbroker’s daughter.” “Well?” cried Mre. Torrance eagerly, as Nelly entered. “What does he say?” questioned Lucetta, dropping the fold of crape t which she was vainly endeavoring | to fashion into what the fashion- plate called “an oblong bow.” “I have Been him,” said Nelly, un tying her bonnet-strings. “And I’m oing to his house in Grandover Park this afternoon.” “You don’t mean,” cried Mrs. Forranee, with a spasmodic eatch- »g of her breath, “that he is going -adopt you?” “Not in the least,” said Nelly. L\ow, mamma darling, don’t jump |t conclusions. Just hear my plain, ivarnished tale. I went to Cous in John. I told him I wanted some thing to do. He asked me if I could -cook. Thanks to that course of les sons I once took of Signor Silver- spoon, I was able to answer yes. Then he told me that his cook was gone, and, and asked me if I would me to bis house this afternoon {and take her place.” y “And yon?” gasped MnwYorrance. “I as id yes—of coarse.' perfectly scandalized! You will d» nothing of the sort!” “Certafnly not,” said Mrs. Tor rance, developing strong hysterical symptom*. “If your cousin Brown intends to insult us—” “But he doesn’t mean to insult us,” pleaded Nelly. “He intended the offer in all good faith, and I ac cepted it in the same spirit." “You surely do not mean to de grade yourself,” crie i Lucetta, “by turning—cook—for any man liv ing!’’ “I don’t see," argued Nelly, “that it is any inure degrading to cook for Cousin John than it would be to embroider slippers for him, or read the newspaper aloud to him ot an evening.” “Eleanor never had any proper pride,” said Mrs. Torrance, wring ing her hands. “Never!” echoed Lucetta. “And,” added Nelly, “my cousin would have every right to believe tie an imposter if I had told him 1 ranted work, and had then refused tie first offer he made. It will be useless for you to remonstrate, Lu- L-ett t, and 1 hope mamma will not place any obstacles in my way. For am quite determined to go to Grandover Purk this afternoon.” And she adhered firmly to her res olution. It was six exactly when Mr. er to Mr. Brown. Brown let himself into his house with the latch-key, which always depended from his watch-chain. The gas-jet burned softly behind said Mr. Brown. “There can’t be more than one head to a household. I hope you have preserved the rec ipe of that giblet-pie, tny dear. It was really something extraordina ry.” So the Torrance family found comfortable refuge for the soles of their teet, and Nelly’s despised ac complishment proved the sword wherewith she opened the world’s oyster. And Lncetta sighed and wonder ed why she, ton, had not taken cook ing lessons. “Nelly is the - Id man’s first favor ite,” said she. “He’ll leave her all his money when he dies. And all because she accepted his ridiculous offer of turning cook for a living.” Mr. Brown, however, looked at this matter in a different light. “Nelly is a trump,” he said. “Nel ly is not like the typical young la dy, who is too lazy to work, and too proud to beg. She is one who en nobles the humblest task, and does, with all her might, whatever her hands find to do.” So the old proverb eame true: “Ilea ven helps those who help them selves.” Further than this our little story cannot go at present, but good-na lured gossip does say that ere Ion.

Thought so! There’s no such thing as a practical woman nowadays.” At the same moment a light, white aproned little figure came out of the dining-room beyond, and Nel ly Torrance’s voice uttered the words: “Dinner is ready, Cousin John.” The old man smiled. He had a pleasant exprei-sior. of the face when he smiled, and Nelly wondered that she had not before noticed what a handsome man he was. “Oh,” said he, “you did come then.” “Oh, I always keep my engage ments,” said Nelly. “Punctuality is the soul of business, isn’t It, Cous in John? At least, that’s what I used to write in my copy books at school.” Mr. Brown patted her hand as she helped him off with his over coat. “You are a good girl,” said he. And in his secret mind he decid ed to put up with any deficiencies in the cooking of a girl who had such excellent business principles. But, to his infinite amazejnent, there were no deficiencies to over look! The soup was on the table, clear as water, flavored like a dream of Soyer’s own! The first course was baked trout, swimming in wine s.iuce, the sec ond a pigeon on toast: A small and compact roast or betf-ribs was flanked by a dainty giblet-pie, and the dessert was fruit, peach tarts, and Bavarian cream! Mr. Brown ate, and leiit-hed, :ii:d wondered by turns. My dear,” said he at last when the cloth was removed and the ;rui a and walnuts brought on; “all is very nice. I’ll concede that you are a tip-top housekeeper. But of course, you ordered all this from Moueiato’s restaurant?” ‘But ot course I didn’t, Cousin Brown,” said Nelly decidedly. “I cooked it all myself!” “What, that soup?” “Yes, that soup?” “Did you prepare that trout sauce, and broil that pigeon ?” “Yes, Cousin Brown." “And .the giblet-pie? Was that yours ?” “Yes, and the giblet-pie' Don’t look so astonished, Cousin Brown,” site added, laughing. “I may as well confess that I took a course of cook ing lessons last summer. And I like it of all things, especially in a household like this, where one can command the very best materials." Mr. Brown closed his eyes, and made a hasty calculation. His life had been “worried out of him,” to use a mediocre expression, by capri cious housekeepers, inefficient cooks and untrained servants. At last, was a gateway out of alt his tribula tion^! “My dear," he said, “I should like to have vou come here and live.” ‘ As cook, Cousin Brown ?” “No—as my adopted daughter and housekeeper. I need someone to take the helm of my affairs By Jupiter!” he added as he recollect ed the flavor of the gimlet-pie. haven’t eaten such a dinner ic ten years." “Rut my mother,” hesitated Ele anor, “and my sister Lncetta.” “Let them come, too,” said Mr. Brown. “Bless your heart, my dear, there’s plenty of room in the house. Can they cook too ?" “No, Cousin Brown,” confessed sadly reduced the Robin Hood “Eleanor!” cried Lucetta, I am Nealy. [ scandalized by your conduct! Yes “Well, perhaps it’s just as well,* romance of the good old timejs when every wood was a hunting- ground; but the Ruskinites who go into mourning at the completion of every railroad might dry their tears in Texas. Culture can progress under full steam for a good many years before it will spoil such Arca- dtas as the chaparral country be tween the sources of the Colorado and the mouth of the Rio Grande—f the park-like uplands, where the children of a million settlers would find as much play room as a car load of kids in the bluegrass counties Soldiers who have revisited the battle-grounds of the wilderness may remember how strangely foot frails lose themselves in the jungle like pine thickets screening the road at every turn and hiding the hunter’s dog from the hunter; and in the same yay the lines of the “International Railroad” cross the wilderness of Southern Texas. Half a mile from the track one may find sleepy hollows that seem never to have been waked by the scream of the iron horse; hill-pastures, where the antelope browses as quietly as the highlands ot the Sierra Madra, even while the rocks echo the thunder of a train rushing by on its way to the distant station. And in the hills of the uplands there are rocks that have never heard that echo. Between San Saha and Fort Davis, an area ex ceeding that of all Tennessee, has never grieved the souls of it teams- t' rs ..by a railroad survey. The northern part of 1his reserv»t ! on contains one of the few remaining buffalo pastures east of th“ Rocky Mountains. A tew miles northeast of Fort Oo.ieho the old military road to New Mexico crosses the mesquite plain, and teamsters win travel that road in winter time are pretty sure to sight buffalos. Not iu herds; the bison legions of the North American prairies are van ished forever; but troops of ten or twelve are still occasionally seen in the upland valleys, especially after a hard frost. In spring thase snrvi- vors of better times take refuge in the dreary borderland of the staked plains, where they separate pair wise for greater security, and re treat further hillward at the least sign ot danger. The Southern Bivouac for Ileeeaher. For its frontispiece, the Southern Bivouac has an exceedingly accu rate map of the Battlefield of Per- ryville, printed in three colors, m .king very clear the position, not only of the different armies, but of the various brigades. The war articles in this number are especially valuable. Gen. Gil bert continues his account of Bragg’s Invasion of Kentucky, and tells of the concentration of both armies at Chaplin Hills, and the opening of the battle. Colonel W. H. Swallow, in his admirable de scription of Lee’s Invasion of Penn sylvania, details the events of the day Of the Battle of Gettysburg, and touches very clearly on many con troverted points. 'General Liddell writes some of the inside history of the war, relating his experiences as an envoy from Gen.Albert Sidney Johnson to President Davis, January, 1862. Colonel Dowd tells In a graphic way of the part taken by the 24th Mississippi, in part by Walthall’s brigade, at Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge. Any one who rea General Grant’s account of his strategical move ments at Chattanooga, will read this from the other side with special in< terest. A Man out West died in a bath tub. The verdict was death from inexperience. Dritnr Offensive Odors. There is no means more certain to bring diseases upon members of a family than allowing infectious matter to remain upon the prem ises. The offensive orders that arise from damp places, decaying vegetables in the cellars, uncleaned sinks and privies, are almost cer tain to engender some malignant disease upon those who by gross neglect faiFto disinfect in proper time the atmosphere around them. Copperas, called sulphate of iron dissolved in water, one-fourth of a pound to a ga lion, and poured Into a sink drain as often as needed will keep it sweet. A little chloride ot lime,say half a pound to g«Hon of water, will have equally as good an effect, and either of these costs but a few cents. To purify cistern water take a pound or two—according to the amount of water—of caustic soda or a similar quantity of concentrated lye, and put into the cistern; this will disinfect stagnant, odorous wa ters, and the eost is nothing com parer! with the benefit derived. It is said that two grains of alum to a pint of water that is not fit to drink render it perfectly clear and pure, and the taste of alum will not be peceived. A little pulverized alum thrown into a pail of water allowed to stand for fifteen or twenty min utes will precipitate all the impuri ties anti leave it perfectly clear. A large* quautity put into a well of impure water will very much im prove it. * A damp cellar may be rectified by sprinkling copperas, chloride of lime,or even common white lime over the floor. The most effective of anything that we ever used to disinfect decaying vegetable mat ter of any description is chloride of lime. One pound may be dissolved in two gallons of water where it is desirable to use it in a liquid form. Another excellent, absorbent ot noxious smells is plaster of Paris, one part to three of pulverized char coal. The reason that there are. so many unwholesome kitchens can not be attributed to the lack of means to purify them, but to the slothfulnes of those who have be come accustomed to breathing foul air, yet they complain wonderfully when called upon to pay nature’s penalty for disobeying nature’s laws. A tew pennies expended now for purifiers may save heavy doctor bills, and will certainly pay in comfort when surrounded by a healthy atmosphere.—Tribune and Farmer. What Broke The Engagement “Well, Mrs. O’Neal, have you made up your mind yet in regard to my proposal of marriage ?” ask ed bachelor Doran ot the Buxom widow. “Well, I’ll tell >e, Mr. Doran, phat I’ll do wid ye. I’ll marry ye on the condition that when I die I be buried alongside of John, for 1 promised him that on his death bed.” Thai’s all right, Mrs. O’Neal. Of couise you can be buried alongside of him, and I can beboried along side of you.” ••No, no, no, no! That would niv- er do. John would munlier me for that. The idee of havin’ John on oue side of me and the lotks of ye on the tother! No, sor. Ye may give up the suit iutoirely now I’ll not marry at all, at all. I wouldn’t run any risk of havin’ anyone slap- in’ wid John an’ me. Indade I wouldn’t.” Mr. Doran is now going for an old maid. Aneieat Wonders. Nineveh was fourteen miles long, eight miles wide, and forty-six miles round, with a wall one hundred feet high, and thich enough for three eharriots abreast.

I’ve got a full plastron.” “Have you?” said her lover; and then, thinking he must show more inter est, said: “Where have you got the plaster on ?” “This,” said an agricultural im plement dealer, expatiating to an old farmer on the merits of a new machine, “this is a patent corn planter.” And putting it down, lie planted it on old Granger’s corn, and raised an acher on the spot.
