TIIE OLD CLO’ MAN.
1 “Oh, such pretty vases, mamma f** said
Fanny, nearly throwing herself out of tbo
Window, In her eagerness to look after an old
clothes man, who with bis bag uj>on his
■boulder, and bis baakot of brittle warn upon
bit arm, woe just that moment parsing the
door. “Such pretty, pretty tu*»1 l> 0 let
me have one, mammal’*
, Now, 1 never, on any account, encourage
one of those people. I have hitherto made it
■ positive rule never to allow one of them to
cross my threshold. Yet, somehow, Fanny’s
eyes—tliey Are Just like J*w»lUir's-—looked so
coaxing!)’ into mine that, before 1 nad taken
• moment to oonsidor about it, I opened the
ffoor; and the minute 1 did so, of course, the
old clothes man color struight up the stairs.
With his "Old clot old shocnl Eny tings to

As 1 had opened the door, I thought it
Coald do no harm to humor Fanny, just for

jd Ik musty old wardrobe in the luml>or room,
uhere was an old office coat of ftwilter's terrl-
sir ou{ at e!l)ows, an old vtfof brother
John's, totally destitute of' ,-ockots; a little
frock of Fanny’s, which she had outgrown a
y«r before, and a troche shawl of my own,
brhlch had been epottod with rain, and which
I had placed ill thd wardrobe in a (it of im-
gjatiwu'o, pretonding to myself that it was
Utterly ruined.
It was the only thing of any value there,
And, in fact. It was so good that I hesitated
About producing it on tbo present occasion. 1
turned it about and looked at It over and
©vor again. The center was the only part
which was stained. 1 could rip the border

Psalter hnd received a bad $5 bill some time
before, and, after marking is with red ink,
bod kept It in his pocket l*ook uutil a few days
before, when he gave it to the children ah a

that very morning, Just before the clothe*

remembered that I gu^ie.1 where the note

fine went. Untof course didn’t find It. I do
declare I hnd to latr^h when I thought how
disappointed the old po Idler would feel when
be found out that the bill was worthies* 1
quite enjoyed it.
l!y merriment was shortened, however, for
not fifteen rrinutes after I discovered that a
new vest of Psalter's, which no Lari only
brought home tho day before, and which 1
Imd laid upon my work bosket until I should
find time to set the buckle at the bock a little
farther forward, wan mLuting.
I searched everywhere, but the vest was
nowhere In the house. 8uch a beautiful
thing as It wem, too, and Psalter had given
more for It than 1 ha/1 ever known him to
give for a vest before, because ho admired it
so—to think that it should be lost through
my own foolish carelessness, for of course 1
know that old peddler hod It! 1 never felt
so distressed in all my life about such a thing.
I would far rather have lost my own velvet
bonnet, or even my best dress. 1 would
v. illtegly have hud my hair cut short off* all
tho way round, like a Iwy’a, to have had it
back again, and I’m suro I couldn't say more
than Unit.
Glad as 1 always ain to hear Psalter’s step
uppn the sidewalk, I almost dreaded to hear
it thut night, for I should lutvo to tell him all
atiout it; ami though l knew he wouldn’t
scold, yet, dear mol 1 did feel *0 ashamed of
my stupidity.
The first thing Fanny did when she hoard
her father getting his latchkey into the key
hole was to run, with her vane In tier hand,
down to (he entry to show her bargain lo
him, and, tripping over the rug, down suo
ramo just ns ho ojMMied thed-xir, smashing
the china and cutting her |»oor little lip ter
ribly. There was an cud of the vase, and her
lamentations over her broken toy and cut lip
were deafening, ami whilo trying to soothe
her I forgot all about tho peddler ami vest
I/oth for a little time. Peace was reefored,
and 1 was Just filling thoteajujt when Brother
John arrived, looking exceedingly com pda
cent, and carrying a parcel under his arm,
which he laid upon tho sofa.
"What is in that pajier, Uncle Johnf’ said
Fanny, Inquisitive as usual, trying to untie
tho cord which fastened the package.
“That is my new vewt, Fun,” said John,
untying the string hiimwlf.
At tho word "vest,” my hourt sank like a
lump of lea/1.
"Oh, dear r I thought, "the time is coin
ing. I must tell now, very soon.”
"It Is Ju*t like vours, l’saltcr,” said John.
"You know how 1 admired that. Well, by a
rare pUcs of good fortune, an old fellow of
fered me just such a one this morning, and I
bought it, 1 don't iwlievo you could tell tho
two apart.”
And ho held up a vest so llko Psalter's that
it seemed absolutely tho same,
"Tho old fellow had a lovely shawl, which
he said was a wonderful bargain—only
It Is Just the color of tho one you w ero so
partial to, that was stained, or spotted, or
something, so I thought I'd bring it up to
you.”
Ha hold It to want mo; but when 1 look It
in my hand, good gracious I it wo*—no, It
couldn’t 1*>— yes, it absolutely was tho very
shawl 1 hod given to tho old peddler man for
Fanny’s vase. Tho spohi were taken out and
It had Ixvn brushed and ironod, but it was
