Mabel Clifton’s Reward.
A NEW YEAR’S STORY.
BY FRANCIS HENSHAW BADEN.
Mabel Clifton sat before one of the
windows of her father's magnificent
mansion.—A servant stood in waiting.
She was making out a list of articles
wanted for the next day. Coming foot
steps arrested her attention. Site rais
ed her eyes from the paper and looked
out. The crimson llttsh deepened on
her bright young face as ‘Oil!' iu a tone
of doep regret, escaped her lips.
‘John I am not just ready to finish
this list and shall not send for an hour
yet. If you have anything else to, at
tend to go and do it.'
Mr. Clifton had been reading in a dis
tant part of tlie loom. Hearing the
door close after Joint’s departure, lie
asked :
‘Yen have not forgotten to send for
those wines I spoke of my dear?'
j ‘He has not gone yet, papa.'
‘Alt, well, do not make it too late,
j They will be very busy to-night,' her
I father said turning again to his paper.
‘Papa!'
‘Well, my dear?'
‘A boon,papa. Promise to grant mo,
this last day of the year, my boon.'
‘What is it love ?'
‘Promise to grant it first. 1
‘Not in ignorance, my child.'
‘Trust me, my father.'
Kite had an earnest, eager, noble look
in her eye that her father did trust iu,
and he promised her.
Well, well; you shall have your way.'
‘Father, let us have no wine to-mor
row.'
‘What! No no; I cannot grant you
that. No wines ! Why, child you have
gone crazy! For twenty-five years past
T have offered to my friends wines on
New year’s day.and never have felt that
I was doing anything wrong. What
has come over you ?'
‘Oh, father, I have never felt just
right when offering young men wine;
and just now I was making out the or
der for John, I chanced to raise my
eyes just as Edgar Livingston was pass
ing. I needed hut a glance to see that
he was under the influence of wine.
Father, his mother is a widow; ho is
her only child. All her earthly hopes
arc in him. Will they not bo wrecked, 1
think you if he indulges in the wine
cup? To-morrow ho will make many
calls, /ioautiful women will offer him
wine. Jla will not have the courage,
possibly the wish to decline. To-morrow
night most likely, then he will return j
home to fill his mother’s heart with \
sorrow. I wish not to contribute one
drop to that bitter cup. ‘
‘My dear, whether we have wines or
not, with him, it will bo all the same, as
you say he will make many calls.-
‘Father, if you had a son, you would
feel differently. Think how many
young men of the brightest promise
have failed, nay, worse, won truly dis
grace and early graves from the love of
wine.
'1 feel as if Edgar Livingston stood on
the brink of a fearful precipice. Fa
ther, stretch forth your strong arm and
draw him back—if only one step, and
for a moment. If we do not save him,
it will boa comfort to think we urged
him not forward on his fatal course.'
‘Mabel, you are deeply interested in
the young man. Am I to conclude—*
‘Nothing more than for his own and
his mother's sake: I would endeavor
to save him, or any other young man in
his danger, father. Here will lie one of
his first calls. Probably / can detain
him long enough to prevent his visiting
other places where he would bo expos
ed to great temptations.—Oh, father,
please grant me this ?‘
‘Really, dear, I feel disposed to do as
you wish,but so many will be very much
disappointed. Be sides, I have not the
courage to make this great change,and
set five hundred tongues to work spcc
- nlating about the cause of it. home will
I declare I’m about to fail; others that I
have (f rown penurious. Ah, what is that,
John?
Just then the servent entered and
handed him an envelope, saying:
'A telegram, sir. 1
Mr. Clifford tore it quickly open,
read it, and exclaimed.
‘Really, this is too bad ! Rut I must
i go. John, here!* And hastily writing
it few words for a return dispatch, he
| handed it to the servant and turning to
I Mabel said :
A COUNTRY NEWSBAUI'.C, FOR THE MASSES DEVOTED TO > V M/.ATION AND MONEYMAKING.
TALBOTTON, GA., WEDNESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 27, 1875.
'My old friend Hartwell is dying and
begs that I will hasten to him. T sari
not deny him, So you will have to en
tertain my friends to-morrow, and ex
plain the reason of my failing to soo
them, the first time for so many years,
.(ml well, dear, you can do as choose
about tin- bill of fare. -Is I snail not bo
homo, the folks will not hold mo respon
sible for what happens in my absence.'
‘Oh, thank you, papa, for permission
to do as I choose. I will.willingly lake
any unkind remarks, if any one feels
like making them. But I feel confident
that all who have sons will give me
their kindest wishes for withholding
temptation from their boys. And as to
the young men, I shall try to make my
self as agreeable, and have our cook to
mako the coffee so very fine, that they
will go away quite as well pleased, and
with tlieir brains a good deal clearer,
than it I had entertained them with
wine.'
An hour after, Mr. Clifton was on bis
way to his dying friend.
Mabel sat down and wrote:
My Dicak Fi.ory: Come and help me
receive our friends to-morrow. Papa
has been called away. I must have you
with me, as I am particularly anxious
to have my reception a success.
Lovingly, Mam-6.
‘Edgar likes Flory, I can plainly see,
and f think she is not wh ally indifferent
toward him. Together 1 think we can
manage to keep him here to-morrow,
and thus save his mother a great sor
row, most likely,' said .1/abel.
Mabel Clifton was one of the lovliost
girls in P . Friends wondered that
let- heart had not yielded to someone
of her many suitors. They did not,
know she had no heart to yield to any
of those who sought it.
The first season she appeared in the
select circle her father's wealth and
position placed her, she met Ernest ad
dison. Ho was a noble looking mat:,
talented, with mind and heart alilo
filled with good, true resolves. To Mu
be] he had been very attentive, and slu
grow to love him, feeling sure the tine
was not far distant when he Would
come to tell her of his lovo. But
months rolled by, and he spoke not
•radually Ins visits grew less frequent,
until they ceased. What it was that had
come between bis love and he rs site
could not think; but she felt perfectly
sure that he did love Iter,and so, hoping
that time would solve tin- mystery and
bring a baltn to her wounded spirit, she
watched and waited for the coming.
New year’s day came beautiful and
bright. Mabel and her friend Flory
never looked lovlior. Mabel had ex
plained her vvishts and fully infused her
own spirit into her fair friend.
It was inpossiblo for an indifferent
person not to feel their powers of fas
cination. To Edgcr Livingston, who
was one of their first guests, they wore
quite irresistible. He lingered on, not
withstanding the many efforts of a
young friend who accompanied him to
draw him away.
‘Bo stay and help us, said Mabel, and
when Florv's beautiful eyes repeated
the wish Edgar yielded.
Few, if any,went from Clifton’s house
dissatisfied. Everything that heart
could desire or mind suggest,in the way
of delicacies rod luxuries of tiro season,
Mabel offered her guests. But as her
i father had said,many tongues were busy
speculating about it, and in a few hours
it was widely known that Miss Clifton
was having a temperance reception. 1
Eagerly Mabel’s eyes sought the door
on every new arrival of guests. Alto
had hoped for the coming of one. But
the hours passed, and when it grew late
in the day the hope faded and almost
died out. She had seated herself weari
ly iu an arm-chair,when the same greet
ing that had fallen on her ears many
times that day, ‘Happy New year, Miss
Clifton, 1 caused the bright light to re
turn to her eyes, the beautiful Hush to
her face, as she rose to receive Ernest
Addison. There was an expression in
his fine eves, when he received from hot
the fragrant cup of coffee, that relieved
the suspense of years. Her heart was
bounded with new hope.
Edgar Livingston had drawn Flory
jto the window. They looking out on
the passers-by. A few moments, and
, reeling along the sidewalk,shouting and
singing a drinking song, came Edgar’s
j companion of the morning.
Flory turned from the sickning sight.
—Edgar followed, saving:
‘But. for you and Miss Clifton, f might
have been one of that party. 1
And going tip I- .1/ahi I,lie said: Miss
1 Clifton, your slumbers to-night should
|be very peaceful. You have not helped
to cloud either the brtiin or the heart j
of any of your friends to-day. Accept
my warmest tlnuiks for having saved tin' .
from both.
Edgar saw an expression in Ernest's j
eves that made him think it would bo j
quite tvs agreeable to all parties if lie
would take Flory back to the recess of
the window, to flu- piano or anywhere
else out of hearing, just then.
A few moments after, his voice- was |
blending with hers in a woll-ohoson j
duet.
Then Ernest told Mabel of tile love !
which had been since first 1m knew her.
‘I came one night to lay luy heart be- j
fore you. You bail many guests, and j
offered them wine. Akin noticed not
that I placed my glass untouched on
the table. I left early. I dared not
woo the heart of one who held such a
fearful temptation before me ; why you
will know when 1 tell you the terrible
truth. My only brother went down to
a drunkard's grave,the woman he loved
urging him o.t.
‘For a time mother and I had won
him from his fatal passion, lie was do
ing well. We believed lie would fulfill
the bright promise of early youth. He
grew to love a beautiful gif’. ,S'ho Was
wild and thoughtless ; and one night, at
a party in her father's house,she urged
him to drink.
‘Oik 1 glass. Every one hut you takes
wine,' she said.
‘lie resisted. Kite taunted him about
having to abstain entirely beeuuso he
had not the self control to use wine in
moderation. Ho yielded, accepted the
fatal glass from her ban !, and drank,
first moderately,then on and on in the
w,ay.tint 1 the end came a ruined life,
and a mother's broken heart.
•Do you wonder that 1. lie l from you
Every hour since yearning to re! urn,

To-day 1 heard what you were do
ing. Ennc-sUy thanking Bod that light

bel
Her heart was too full of joy -she
could not tell him in words how happy
she was Imt her little hand lay still in
his. She raised her cyesa moment,and
lie saw the love of years beaming there,
lie needed no other answer.
Judging from the low tone in which
I lie voices in the other room had fall, it,
f think some other In arts had found
tlieir mates. lint the pair liiul separa
ted,or rattier rejoined again,by the re
turn of Mr. Clifton,who entered, culling
out.
‘Mitbol.nty dear,to me these rooms look
rather dark. Let's have the gas turned
on,if you please 11
‘Certainly,papa. 1
And when there was light enough for
Mr. Clifton to look into his dang ‘ r‘
eves,lie saw a brighter light shinning
there. Another moment, when Flory
came to greet him, he said, with a sly
smile :
'All, 1 see why you young folks knew
nothing of the surrounding daikta-ss
guided by the light within. Well, have
you had a pleasant, day ?‘
‘A happy day,father ; there are no re
grets to steal in and mar it,' J/.ibi -aid
with a bright smile.
‘I am glad of if glad of your n solve,

glass to auv young iAh.ii," s u'd .Mr. (Hil
ton,his vo'" h-em'-big with emotion.
Before another New-year's day .la
bel ami Flory each presided over an es
tablishment of tlieir own. The happy
remembrance, of (heir receptions is nev
er clouded by the thought that they have
added one drop to the cup of bitterness
which so many wives,mothers and sis
ters have to drink that cup of sorrow
which is often prepared for them by sis
torwomeu.

local room of this paper,and inquired :
‘ls this whar the Logislashnr is?'
‘No, sir,' replied the reporter ; 'tlie

‘Way off there eh ('continued the man,
as he sat down,laid his cane across the
table and took off his mittens.
‘Yes ; trains run twice a day. Pretty

‘I don’t care about the crowd, 1 said
the old man. ‘I want a law—a new

‘What's the matter- -how do you want

‘My name’s Horner!’ replied the man
as ho slowly fumbled inside his coat.
‘My name’s Horner,and I'm an old
fool! What, do you think I did three
months ago ? Went and married a girl
sixteen years old, and red headed at
that! Yes, went and deeded her a
farm and gin her six hundred dollars
cash,and married her !'
‘Andyou do not live happy ?'
‘Happy! Young man,let mo show

And he unrolled a piece of brown pa

Ho pulled up his pants and exhibited
a black and blue spot just above the
shin.
| ‘Struck there with a flat iron !‘he ex
plained ; ‘meant to hit me iu the cliist
and kill me at once,but I dodged. And

He opened his coat and vest and re-
I voided the fact that lie had no shirt on,
and consequently nothing on which to

‘Tore it off’ll mo two weeks ago !' he
: whispered, ‘and she burned up my otli
