BY AN OLD CONTiUBUTOR.
k You women are always being fright
ened about nothing,’ said Mr. Jones,
pocketing hi* latch-key. ’Why don't
you learn better. Is this the first time
overstayed out atlcr twelve
clock 7
No indeed Charles,’ sobbed hi* wife
*an<l every time you do it i’m almost
beside myself with terror.’
Why. don't you go to bed os usual?’
a-iked Mr. Jones.
Bed!’ repeated Mrs. Jones.
-Ind sleep unlill I come,’ said Mr.
Tones.
‘Sleep!’ echoed the lady. ‘But its
lust ihc way with all men. Ma had
exactly the same thing to bear. The
ag-end of the evening is enough for a
wife. I remember when you used to
come a courting, how pa was often
obliged to let you kuow that there was
an hour for leaving. No matter! I
xhouldo’i care if you didn’t, only 1 am
-to dreadftilly frightened—*
And why ?’ said Mr. Jones.
Oh dear,’ mid Mrs. Jones, ‘why.
because all sorts of dreadful things
happen to people. They die suddenly
of heart disease. They are murdered.
They are run over. They choke to
death is restauraunls. They mysteri
ously disappear with thousands in
their pockets.*
(*1 shan’t do that,') sand Mr. Joues,
parenthesis.
‘In fact, it's a world of accidents,
unless the 4aily paper fibs,’ continued
ilis Joues, ‘and a body really lives ten
lives in one, worrying about people.
It you will stay out late, why don't
you tclegra|di?*
And frighten you into a fainting fit
a* I did once,' said Mr. Jones. ‘Ah,
dear me, my love, if you had but a lit
tle common sense, that commonest
thing iu the world, a telegram could
uot have given you such alarm. Trou
ble has wings my dear. If I am ever
visited by a calamity you'll know it
before you begin to worry. It Is
ways so.
I believe I am always on the look
out for some accident,' said Mrs.
with a sigh. ‘Perhaps ray watch
wrong, i/alf-past two Charles.’
B}*Jove!'said Charles. ‘You see,
Browc had some fine wine that he had
bought at a bargain, and bis cousin
from Boston—a splendid fellow—was
down, and wc bad a game or two at
whixi, and a cigar and time flew.* •
IIow noi«less,’ quoted Mr. Jones.
i«» was decidedly exhileratod—‘how
noificss falh the foot of Time that on
ly tread* on flowers. Mrs. Uro vn and
her two sisters sat down to play with
us and tho fair otic is the prettiest girl
I ever saw.’
And I in a cold sweat from terror
all the while’ said Mrs. Jones, bursting
into tears. ‘Mr. Jones yJfi are per
fectly cowardly!*
You,’ said Mr. Jones, guiding him
self up the baliustsde—‘you havcn’i
streoofinlndenuf.*
I believe you are tipsy.' said Mrs.
Jones. ‘This is the end.’
Then she walked indignantly into
the nursery, banged the door and lock
ed it, and was heard to sob hysterical
ly wiihin the room.
Jones, growing more careful of LU
steps repeated:
‘Not streno r mindcnuf,’and retired
in bis bools.
He took tea Instead of coffee for
breakfast next morning, and was
ill that Mrs. Jones forgave him—out
wardly, at least.
There were a few days of regular
bouts and exemplary conduct. Ri
Jom felt that bobrJ^oBotooliir ft
laid. Hid* Vn. reproached him,
be wobWbave rebelled; but after that
first night she was sweetifes* itself;
and one evening .Mr Jones came home
earlier than usual , with ticket* for the
theatre in his pock*to. -The play was
a fine one. A favorite star took the
principal character. Mrs. Jooea en-
Mred such-entertainments, and be had
bought her * .pair of new kid gloves,
pale legion oulor;. be felt as virtuous
as men hsdally do when they are at
tentive to the women who have a right
to their attention. And a* he walked
op the street he looked up at the win
dow to see if the was peeping out be-
tween the shutters to look f^r him, but
•he was not there. Neither dul she
run to the door to meet him. The on
ly face be saw was -that of Biddy, the
up-stairs girl, who was setting the ta
ble in the dining room.
Where’s your mistress, Biddy?’ ask
ed he.
‘Out, sir,* replied Biddy.
-Be in soon, I suppose?’ said Mr. &.
‘Dunno, sir,* replied Biddy, vanish
ing with the tray.
Mr. Jones walked op to the nnrseiy.
The two-year-older just out of his bath
was beieg dressed by hia nurse-maid.
Generally Mrs. Jones * performed this
pleasant work herseIC
‘Where* mamma?' said Mr. Jones
again.
Deed it’s quarc she's not at home,
tel) yer pa,’ said Maggie. ‘And where
she's gone at all, at all I don't know.’
‘Singular,* said Mr. Jones,
i/e walked down to the street
door, and stood looking down the
street. 1 * r • - '
As be did so, two men passed, talk
ing to each other, i/e caught a lew
words.
.Runaway team—killed—fine look
ing girL’
Suddenly betel! his heart flutter,
lie restrained an inclination to run af
ter the men and ask them what they
were speaking of. A picture of his
wife lying under the carriage wheels
flashed across his miud.
Bah! what a fool I am,’ he said to
himself; but as the lights grew less and
the street* more shadowy, be became
more and more uneasy. Finally be
walked down to the corner, and wash
ed the cars drive past, five, tea twenty
of thera^. Then it struck him that she
might have returned another way and
he hurried home. The nurse was
holding the baby at the door. He
knew by her face that she had not yet
arrived.
It was lialf-past seven. The play
must be given up. It was too late lor
that. She had staid somewhere to
dine. Mr. Jones grew angry.
•Send up the dinner, Biddy,’ he said
and diuner was served; but before he
hod eaten ten mouthfuls, an account
which he had read that morning of a
lady who bad keen drugged and car
ried off to a sr amp, where she was
robbed of jewels and money and left
for dead, occurred to him.
Maggie,’ he called to the girl, ‘how
was your mistress dres edT*
Sure, she had her black silk, and
them illgant bracelets and ear-ring she
had for her Christmas,’ said Maggie.
Och. mebbe, she’s teen robbed iv ’em
who knows?’
Mr. Jones put down his fork and
it no more.
He wandered to the door again, and
tried to think what qould be done.—
When nine o’cl-tck struck, he was in
despair. When ten o’clock came with
out bringing his wife, he bethought
him of certain friends who might have
urged her to spend the tveniug, and
made the best of bis way, first to one
residence, then to another, wbh no
success.
It was now plain to him that Mrs.
Jones had met with some accident It
was eleven o'clock, and still she did
uot return. Had she been able to
walx or ride, he argued, 6hc would
have sained her home in some way.
Thoughts of the Morgue filled him
with horror. Was she lying dead there
with ber long hair all about her shoul
ders? Was she in some hospital?
Where was she—where?
Mr. Jones, by this time, was pale
as a ghost, and terror had absolutely
hollowed bis cheeks. With rumpled
hair, limp collar, and disordered era-
at, he walked itito the station house,
as the clock struck twelve, and an
nounced the terrible fact that his wife
was missing. The inquiry which fol
lowed, startled him as the explosion of
a bomb-shell.might.
Who's she gone with? What’s hb
name?'
‘Sir!' yelled Mr. Jones. ‘My wife
‘They are all alike, them missing la
dies,' said the official. •Generally turns
out the same. You'd have heard,
any accident had happened. Cora
mon-sense telUyou that. However,
we'll keep a kx>k out’
The horrified Jones (lew away again
and a reporter, who had been listening
with open ears to all that had been said
flew to the office of his paper and made
up a paragraph, headed: ‘Elopement
Extraordinary—Mother Deserts Her
Little Child,’ etc.
00 the way home Mr. Jones stopped
1 the telegraph office and sent dis
patches to Mrs. Jones' parents and
his own, worded thus;
‘Com at ooce. Larania b miss
ing.’
As he gave the message he burst in
to lean and awakened tbe sympathy
of tbe whole establishment. Two
young men even came to tbe door
look after him as he harried down tbe
street, which was a great deal for tel
egraph people, who are generally the
most apathetic in the world; hot they
shook their beads aod expressed the
polios "flfrffi ebtg
out of hearing.
Poor Mr. Jooes! He had never
been frightened before, and all that be
could do etemed to have been done.
He reached his door i i a dripping
perspiration, and with icy cold hands
opened it somehow, staggered into tbe
parlor, aod there—yes, there sat Mrs.
Jones serenely tanning herself.
‘Lavao!*!' screamed air. Jones, and
tumbled into a heap on tbe sofa.
‘Dear meH said Mrs. Jones, ‘you
haven’t been anxious? How silly I
Why didn’t you retire?*
‘Then you are not dead,* said Mr.
Jones. *1 neVcr expected to see you
alive.*
•Ob you’d have beard if anythiog
had happened to me,’ said Mrs. J.—
‘How little strength of mind you
have.'
‘Where yon have been?* said Mr.
Jones sternly.
*Oh, next door,’ said Mfs. Jonta.
‘They bad a little party—music and
such elegant refreshments!—ami there
was a very agreeable young gentleman
there, We sang duets all the evening
and he brought me home.’
‘Lavania, I am shocked!’ said Mr.
Jones.
‘Is it worse for you to be frightened
tan 1?’ asked Mrs. Jones, ‘ifcw
yon see how it feels, Charles.*
Mrs. Joues glowed with triumph.—
Mr. Jones glowed with displeasure.
After a while, however, hb face as»
suined a look of diabolical satisfac
tion.
‘To think I should have telegraphed
i *11 nnr rstaiinni ’ twt i,iit
to all our relation*,’ he said.
‘Whatr screamed Mrs. /ones.
‘And reported you at the station-
house, 'where they told me you had
elojied,’ said Mr.
‘It will be in the papers to-morrow,’
cried Mrs. J.
‘t’robal ly,’said Mr. Jones.
1 don't like to end thb story in an
unorthodox manner; but 1 must tell
truth. The tables were turned on
Mrs. Jones, 'ihe influx of terrified
relations next day; the awful report
that appeared In the Daily Bother,
and the long train of reporters who
interviewed her twenty-four hours,
made her bit of reveuge anything but
a satisfaction to her. And as Mr.
nature will know that hb was not re
formed by his ‘scare.’ He stays out
when chooses and does as lie pleases,
and Mrs. Joues it is who has 'earned
a lessen.

She was expecting him Sunday
night, the parlor curtains were down,
the o!d folks notified that it was healthy

.Tolinny bribed with a w cent to permit
himself to be tucked away at sundown.
He sneaked up the path, one eye on
the dog and the other watching for tbe
‘old man,” who didn't like 1dm any
too well, gave a faint knock at the
door, and U was opened and he was
escorted into llie parlor. lie said he
couldn’t stay but a minute, tbougli he
didn't mean to go home for hours.—
She wanted to kuow how his mother
as; if his father had returned from
York State; if his brother Bill's rheu
matism was any better; and he went
over and sat on the sofa so as not to
strain bb voice. Then conversation
flnggcd, and he played with hb hat,
and she nibbled at tbe soia-tidy. He
finally said it was a beautiful evening,
and she replied that her grand-father
predicted a snow-storm. lie said he
guessed it wouldn’t snow, as the moon
wasn’t crooked enough to hang a pow-
iler-horn on the end; she said she
didn't believe it would, either. Thb
mutual understanding seemed to give
each ether courage, and he wanted to
know if she had seen Bill Jones lately.
She hadn't, she said, and she didn’t
want to. Then she went to talking
about the donation vbit which was to
l>e given Elder Berry, and he care
lessly dropped hb hand on hers—Ids
right band, while hb left Tneaked
along the sofa to get behind her shoul
ders. She pretended not to no
tice it, and ho looked down at his
tjoots and wanted to know if she
thought mnttoa tallow rotted out
boots faster than lard or lampblack.
She couldn’t say, bnl she had an idea
that it did. He had just commenced
to lock fingers with her, when she db-
covered something ailed the lamp.-
hhe rose up and turned the light down
a half, making the room look dim. It
took him five minutes to get bold of
ber fingers again; she pretended to
want to draw her baud away all the
time. After a long pause, he lowered
hb voice to 'i whbper, and he said be
didn't see what made folks love each
other. She bit herhandkerchief and
admitted ber ignorance, ne said that
he could name a dozen young men
who were going to get married right
away, and his lelt aim fell down and
gave her a hug. Then be went over
and looked oat of tbe window to make
•ure that it was or wo* not going to
snow, and, coming back, he turned the
light down a little more, and then sat
down and wanted to know if st*
didn’t want to rest herself by leaning
her bead on his shoulder.
Ah. me! we have ell been there,
and wl*o of us cared a cent when the
old dock struck 12,-and we five mile*

LktU8 Help One Anotiieb.—
This sentence should be written on
every heart, and stamped on every
memory. It should be the golden
rule, not only piacticed in every
household, but throughout tho world.
By bulping one another, we not only
remove tliorns from the pathway, and
anxiety from the mind, but we feel a
sense of pleasure in our own hearts,
knowing we are doing a duty to a
tellow creature. A helping haod,
an encouraging word, is no loss to
yet a benefit to others. Who has uot
felt the power of this little sentence?
Who has not needed the eucourage-
tncul of some kind friend? How
soothing, when perplexed with some
task that is mysterious and burden
sonie,s4o feel a hand on the shoulder,
and to hear a kind voice whisper:
‘Do not be discouraged—1 see your
trouble—let roe help you.’ What
strength is inspired,what hope created,
what sweet gratitude is felt, and the
great difficulty is dissolved as dew be
neath the ranshino. Yes, let m help
one another by endeavoring
strengthen and encourage the weak,
and by lifting tbe burden of care from
the weary and oppressed, that life
may glide smoothly on. and tbe fount
cf bitterness yield sweet waters; and
lie whose willing band is ever ready
to aid us, will reward our humble en
deavors, and every good - deed will be
‘bread cast upon tbe waters, to re
turn after many days,* if not to us, to
those we love.—Ex.
