X MISPLACED KINDNESS.
On tlia death of Colonel Taking no
one was morn surprised nt his not hav
ing left n will thail Mr. Alfred Taking,
Ids nephew and heir-at-law. That gen
tleman had tho best reasons for know
ing that his undo was not well disposed
toward him—in fact, tho Colonel had
refused to have nm thing to do with him
for some years past. Tho truth was
tli.it Alfred 1.tikiug was onoo guilty of
an act of meanness, whioli his undo
not or forgave, and, therefore, tho fort
unate heir had not expected to benefit
hy his unde's death. Hut ovon out
siders, who know nothing of the eauso
of estrangement between tho Colonel’
and his nephew, were amazed at tho old
gentleman dying intestate, lie had so
frequently expressed his determination
of preventing his nephew from suocoeil-
ing lo his property, and had made so
many wills at dilleront tihies with that
object, that his intestacy caused uni-
vorsal astonishment, ll was generally
supposed Mint his somewhat sudden
death had frustrated bis testnmontnry
Intentions, or else that, at tho last mo
ment, lie laid realized tho force of the
old adage that blood is thicker limn
wator, and had beon content to permit
ids nephew to inherit by tho ordinary
course of law.
lint whilo Mr. Alfred Taking received
the congratulations of his friends with
eipmnimily, and apparently aeijitieseed
in the general opinion tliat lie was a
very lucky individual, lie did not by any
means feel secure of his inheritance),
llis natural cunning, and his moan, sus
picious nature suggested tho idea that
ltis uncle had not failed to take due pro-
cautions to guard against tho coni in-
geney which had happened. Ho did not
believe for an instant that tho old man’s
feelings had softened toward him in his
lasl moments, any sentiment approach
ing magnanimity being beyond tho nar
row limits of liis moral perceptions, hi
ids heart of hearts lie felt convinced
that there was a will in existence, and
that ho owed his inheritance to the ac
cidental circumstance of tho document
having been mislaid or overlooked.
Hut though this foreboding posscssod
him so strongly that it amounted almost
to a moral certainty, lie took no steps to
Verify ids suspicions. On the conlrary
he carefully refrained from doing anv-
thum of ll)o kind. Ho did. indeed,
stealthily and in secret scrutinize his
uncle s papers, destroying all those
i ii co ’- ltl b m “ t l suspicious memoran-
ila. Hut lie omitted to take tho obvi
ous course of advertising in tho newspa
pers, or applying to tlie various legal
uentlcmon whose services— to his knowl
edge—ms undo had from lime to time
employed, lie thought it possible —
probable, in fact—that one of these
might bo in •possession of a will; but ho
could never summon up courage to ask.
Ha kept tho fact of the old man’s death
as auiet as possible, not evon announc
ing the event in the daily papers, lie
employed a strange solicitor to perform
Hie legal work connected with tho ad
ministration of tho estate, and, in short
eiuloavoroii to avoid publicity in every
1'ortliG first few months of his uncle’s
cleat i he was perpetually haunted by
tno dread that his elaborate precaution
would be throw n away; but when a year
had passed lie began to breathe more
fre.'ly. The chances were, lie thought,
that, if a will existed, it would have
turned up by this time, or els-e it would
probably rot away in ils hiding place.
Thus by degrees tho phantom conjured
•jfi by his pusillanimous imagination be
came Jess appalling, until one day his
an.vety was revived by a very ominous
incident. " . .
A shabbily dressed, middle-aged man
called upon him, and said he had an im
portant communication to make. He
gave the name of Crumbcr, and Alfred
leaking then recollected that lie was a
clerk in the ollice oiMhe solicitor whom
lie had employed to wind up his uncle’s
estate. This circumstance seemod re»
“ Yon see, sir, nobody know] of thi
existence of tho will but you ind mo.
.Supposing wo were to throw if on the
fire yonder, who would be the wiser?'
“How darn you suggest such a thing?”
cried Alfred Taking, with a show of vir
tuous indignation. “It would be a crim
inal offense.”
“A suppose you wouldn’t split on
me, sir, if I was to doit,” sugirested
Crumbcr, speaking almost in a whis-
per. “J ho fact is, sir. I’m thinking of
emigrating. I don’t mind the risk. (Jive
me a thousand pounds and tho trick is
(Iono. '
The indignant expression had died
out of Alfred Takings face, leaving il
whiter than ever, and ho gazed at his
companion with a kind of terrified fasci
nation. He was struck hy the boldness
ami simplicity of the course suggested,
which would oirectually relieve him from
all fuitlier anxiety. Hut ho shrank
from being a party to a deliberate fraud
ior tear of the consequences, and lie was
rather staggered hy (ho large amount
which Mr. Crumbcr demanded fir his
services. Yet, when he reflected that
he would lose his whole fortune if the
will should be discovered, and nl.so that
( lumber might be tempted—if he re
fused to accept his terms—to sell lrs
secret to other interested parties, lie re
solved lo closo with him nt once. It
was a simoon determination, taken half
in desperation and half from sheer
flight. A he will was destroyed, and
early the next morning Mr. Crumbcr
started for America from Liverpool
with ono thousand pounds sterling in
gold in liis pocket. n
Alfred Taking went and saw him off,
ha\ ing, in fact, declined to hand over
the money until ho was safoly on board
ship. Upon liis return to London, feel
ing, in spite of sundry misgivings, more
relieved and light-hearted than lie had
done since Ills uncle’s death, his exuber
ant spirits received a sudden chock in
consequence of the receipt of a letter
from Mr. Mayno, which ran thus:
, , , TlNl'OI.N’s-lNN-FlKUIS.
niTi. I formerly itctcd iirofosMlonnllv lor
your Into uik-Ic, ('.Woiii-i Bakina, unit nhall l*c
sla<l If you will alvi- me a mil id vonr cmlldst
convenience, on a mailer or Importance \
Yours faithfully, John. B.Mavnk.
This communication gavo him a great
shock, for i‘ naturally occurred to him
nt onco that this ‘'matter of impor
tance” referred to his uncle’s will. If
the document had already been missed,
Immediate stops would, of course, be
taken to recover it, which might lend
to tho arrest of Crumbcr, and even re
sult in liis own apprehension on a crimi
nal charge. The bare notion of such a
calamity brought beads inf perspiration
to his brow, and his first impulse was to
Jieo-tho country.
Hut upon second thoughts ho aban
doned tho - idea. Evon supposing
< lumber should be suspected of having
destroyed tho will there was no proof.
The man would deny the charge for his
own sake, besides whioli ho was out of
tho country. Upon the whole, Alfred
Taking thought tho wisest course would
bo to taco tlie matter out; and much as
ho would have preferred to avoid an in
terview with the lawyer, he determined
to call upon him without delay.
Accordingly ho presented himself at
Mr. Mayno s ollico tho morning after re
ceiving tho letter, looking very pale and
Miming, for Alfred Taking naturally
supposed the man had beon sent with
some message from his mastor relating
to business matters.
“A presume Mr. Hakor asked you to
ca]l?|’ lie said, nervously. •
“Xo, sir; tlie fact is 1 loft Mr. Baker’s
office some .months ago. I am at pres
ent in another situation,” replied tlie
man.
“What is your business, then?” in
quired Mr. Taking, with increased un
easiness.
“1 suppose wo arc quite alone, sir,
“You can speak out, though I cannot
imagine wlinl you can have to say that
is so imporlani.” returned Mr. Taking,
glancing to see that tho door was
closed.
“When I left Mr. Baker’s office I took
a situation with another solicitor,” said
Crum bar, lowering liis voice. “Tho
gentleman 1 am now with Is Mr. Mayno,
of Llncoln’s-inn-Holds. I don’t know
whether you ever .heard of him, air?”
Alfred I aking started, and turned
deadly pale, lie happened to know
that liis uncle hnd consulted this gentle
man professionally at a comparatively
recont date, and ho, therefore, in
stinctively guessed the nature of tho
revelation in store for him.
“No! 1 never heard of Mr. Mavno.
and I don’t believe my undo d(d,’ f ho
ropliod, almost fiercely.
“Well, sir, yon sec your unde did not
always consult you about his affairs,”
returned Mr. Crumbcr, rather disre
spectfully. “At any rate, lie knew Mr.
Mayno, who prepared n will for him
shortly before he died.”
“How do you know,” demanded
Alfred Taking, too startled to conceal
his agitation.
“Because I’vn seen it. I’ve not only
scon it, butt I’ve read it. Your name
isn’t mentioned in tliat will, Mr. Lak- •
Ing,” said tho man, with a grin
“A very fine sfoiy,” said Alfred
Taking, with a forced laugh. "Pray,
how is it that Mr. Mayno has never
written to inform me of tho allogod
will?”
“Because, in tho first place, I doubt
If ho is nwaro of tho Colonel’s death;
but, if ho Is, lie lias probably forgotten
that tho Colonel left his will with him,
for Ills memory isn’t wliat it was,” said
Mr. Crumbcr, growing more familiar in
his manner as Lo remarked Alfred
1 liking’s wlilto lips and agitated de
meanor. “Hy some omission the will
is not indexed in tho schedule of tlie
contents of tho strongroom. I came
across it quite accidentally whilo search
ing for something else. Knowing tlie
tiamo of tho testator and all tho cir
cumstances, tho will attracted my atten
tion. Othorwiso, it would probably
have remained undisturbed for years.”
“Then do you mean to say that Mr.
Mayno is unaware of tlie existence of
tlie will?” said Alfred Taking, with in
voluntary eagerness.
“ J believe every one in the office has
forgotten it. I might purloin that will
trom tho salo to-morrow and no ono
would ho tho wiser,” returned Crumbcr,
impressively.
t it was impossible to ignore tlie in
sidious purpose of tlm man's visit.
Evidently he was an uiisotnpulous —=> --.• i--—
scoundrel, who do sired to turn the dis- | n »«*ing every effort to
lovory he made to account. Alfred
Taking looked at him with newly
I awakened curiosity, and was by no
f ins favorably impros-od bv liis tip-
fauco. Tho man hud a forbidding
rc-sion, and it suddenly occurred to
Talking that this was an impudent
nipt to extort money by false ^ire-
ten.sck _
“1 doh’t believe a word of what you
say,” ho's’Ued, suddenly rising from
liis seat and iconfrouting tlie unwel
come visitor “ Yoyr story is a tissue
of falsehoods.” \
“I was afraid you migfitvjhink so,
sir, so I 'Ventured to bring the will with
mo,” said tlie man, slyly.
“What! you have actually stolon it?”
cried Alfred I.aking.
"I have it hero, anyway,” returned
(rmnber, coolly, as ho produced a
document from his pocket, “ 1 can put
it back where L took it from within an
hour. Of course, it is no earthly uso
tome." J
“Let me see il, 1 said Alfred Taking,
in a hoarse voice, seating himself iu liis
chair again.
Mr. I ruinber unfolded llio document
and glanced at it, apparently reflectin'’’
whether it would lie wise to part witfi
ii. Hut a 1 tor a pause lie laid it on tho
de.-k, saying: •
“I’m treating you like a gentleman,
sir. \ ou must promise to return it to
me.”
“Yos, yes,” said Alfred L-ikim-,
stretching out his hand impatiently. ”
Some moments elapsed before tho
agitated gentleman could compose liim-
selt sufficiently to take iu tho contents
of tiie will. He first turned to tlie final
page, which boro tho signature of tho
testator and the attesting witnesses.
So far as lie could judge tlie signatures
were genuine, and tlie document hail
evidently been prepared several months
ago, the od^es of the paper bcino- dis
colored and the ink faded. It” was
daldi a few weeks before Colonel Tak
ing s death, and was, therefore, in all
probability, tho last will ho had made.'
\ V w en . T ho , oamo 10 rcad carefully
Allied Taking s lingering liopo that tlie
document might be a forgery was quick
ly dispelled. From,internal evidence it
was undoubtedly geijuiuo, the name of
various persons and places being men
tioned which no stranger could have
fabricated Tlie Colonel appeared to
nave left his property to some distant
relatives, subject, to a few charitable
bequests. His nephew’s name was not
mentioned and an okl military friend
was appointed executor.
Mr. Alfred Taking read tlie will over
two or three times, keeping ids faco
concealed from Mr. Crumbcr, who man
ifested a good deal of impatience. At
length he roused himself from his un
pleasant reductions, folded up the fatal
document and lixod a half-frightened,
half-defiant gaze upon liis visitor.
‘‘What.do you propose tq do with
tins? he inquired, nervously.
“ Well, sir. that depends upon you,”
replied Crumbcr. “if you advise me to
put it b.iek end remind’the,Governor of
it, well and good.”

“A wrote to you,” Mix Taking* ‘ dtfd
tlie old lawyer, when they had ex
changed greetings, “because I have
reason to believe that you have received
a communication from a man named
Crumbcr.”
“No,” murmured Alfred Taking.
His answer appeared to cause Mr.
Mayno some surprise, for tlie old <ren-
tlemnu stared at hm through his spec
tacles for a second or two,' niul then
s.V'l. rather sharply:
‘‘Name of Crumbcr. ’I ho man was a
clerk in my ollico until recently.”
"Certainly not,” repeated Alfred
Taking, lie intended his reply to bo
bold ftpd emphatic, but the attempt
was a mrsora-bjo failure. There was a
quaver in liis v*dce, and liis eyes in
stinctively soughtWXJ4 1 carpet.
“A-licm!” coughein^r. Mayno, in an
unpleasantly significant nftytpfci’. ”Tho

left in my charge, but a few days Inter
ho called and revoked it He gave as
his reason that ho did not wish his ani

“You don’t say tlint!" exclaimed
Alfred Taking, with a stare of genuine
surprise.
“He revoked tho will by tearing oil
tho signatures on tho last page,” con
tinued the lawyer, still looking liis visit
or in tlie face, "and tlie mutilated docu
ment being.of course, mere waste jiaper,
was tiod to the draft and put away in an
old press. This man Crumbor, whom A
discharged a few weeks ago for dishon

“Tho infernal scoundrel!” cried Al
fred Taking, violently, forgetting his
omit ion, when ho thought of his £1^)00.
.‘•Yes, I’m afraid he is tlmt," said tho
lawyer, dryly. “So you see, Mr. Lak-
ing, it was kindness” thrown away on
your part to take tho trouble to see him
oft' from Liverpool yesterday. I wish
you a good morning, sir.”
A Doctor’s Substitute.
Ho was a young man with a wild, dis
ordered look. Ho rushed into the office
of a prominent city physician yesterday,
ulaced a small cup on tho desk, took off
his coat and bared his right arm and
whispered:’ ‘‘Stick me!”
“ Do you want to lie bled?”
“I do! Open a vein and let me catch
the blood in this cup!”
“ Too full in the head!”
‘‘Alas! too full in tho heart! My
afiianced will not beljeve mo when I tell
her that I love hor better than my life.
I will write ray love. I will write" it in
my own bloodI. Proceed!”
“ Is that all you want?” **
“ All! *Is not that sufficient!”
“ Young man, you are a dodo! Put
'on your coat! I keep a red ink here
for the very purpose you desire, and I
will sell you a whole gill for a quarter! ”

Polish Hospitality.
Tho Polos are extraordinarily hospi
table; they entertain without grudtro.
At every table in the large houses some
extra places arc laid ready for unex
pected guests—as they say, ‘‘for tho
travolor that comes over the sea." It
is possible in Poland to go uninvited to
visit your friend, tnkiug your children,
your servants and horses, and to stay five
or six weeks without receiving any hint
to go. Tho Polos are fond of gayoty, of
amusement, of society; they love pleas
ure in all its bright and charming
forms. Tho country houses are con
stantly full of visitors, and in tho winter
there is often the “Kulig," a gathering
which increases as it goes from house to
houso. It is taken from a peasant cus
tom, and the nobles, when they get up
a ‘‘Kulig,” wear tho peasant costumes,
very beaufully made. They go ovor tho
snow in slougos from house to house,
dancing for two or three days at one,
and then going on to another,'"taking tho
people of tho houso which thoy loavo
with them. At last there are perhaps
twenty sledges all full of people, dressed
in bright colors and singing tlie songs
of tho “Kulijz.” At every houso thoy
dance tho characteristic dances of tlie
occasion—tlie ‘‘Krakomiak,” tho “Ma
zur,” and the “Oberek.” The first is a
very pretty nnd peculiar dance, in which
the partners turn away from each other
and then come face to face; the “Mazur”
is something like the quadrille, though
it is by no means tho same; the
“Oberek" resembles a waltz danced tho
reverse way, and with a very pretty and
characteristic figure, in which tlie man
kneels on ono knee and kisses his part
ner's hand. They are all most charm
ing and pretty, and the Poles dance with
enthusiasm as woll as grace. They
havo many natioriUT'WJ.oms cere
monies which are occasions for dancing
and pleasure. Then, in tho autumn and
winter, there is boar hunting. In this
way, with these various amusements,
the time passos in the country housos,
and visitors will stay six weeks or per

Mrs. Cobb has a colored cook, who

who can read, and who gives much of
her time to perusing the cook book.

cake A short time afterwards she ap
peared in tho parlor with tho cook book
in her hands, and said
" I wants yer to send right off to do

cake.”
“.Some wlia’t?”
“ Some latter.”
“ Latter.”
“Yes, latter. I'so done toleyer four

“ In tho name of common sense; what
is latter?”
“ I dunno what hit aqi. I didn’t
write dis heah book. Hit roads dat a
cupfull ob de latter should be put in do

Mrs. Cobb jerked tho book out of the
cook’s hand, and, at the place indicated,

water, or of sweet milk, but Tho latter
is the best.” — Texas Siftinas.
