I ILFRIDA’S PLACE.
Old Mrs. Galway sat sorrowfully at
her west window, watching tho apple
gathering. Above the hills hung a
80 ^ t > y cilow mist; the great chestnut
tree in the lane was turning to a bou
i quet of rustling gold; the asters and
dahlias a!ong the garden-walk were
| blossoming in gau ly prolusion.
j ‘■It’s the fiist year,” said Mrs. Gal¬
way, “that I haven't been able to help
'em barrel up the red sweets and the
yaller pippins. And I'm helpless with
j tho rheumatics. Oh, dear, dear, to
think it should come to this I What’s
that noise? I i! bet a earro wav-seed it’s
tlie cat among the inilk-pans! And it’s
time the kettle was over for tea, and
Sarah Soper’s forgot to come and see to
it!”
She looked piteously up at the clock,
but just as she was about to lift up her
voice iu shrill summons, a footstep
creaked heavily on the doorstep.
“It’s me,” said Sarah S3per, a gray
haired, sharp-feature l spinster, who
lived in the house who e yellow gable
end was just visible through the maple
* ,ecs beyond. “I’m a little late, on
account o’ stoopin’ 11 to buy a paper 1 r o’
hair-pins and two cards o’ buttons of a
piddicr that came along.”
“1 thought you never was coming,”
said Mrs. Galway, jclulantly.
Sarah looked sharply at her.
“I tell you what, Mrs. Galway,” said
»hc, “you made a great mistake when
you set your face against Z?nas’ mar
lyin’ that pretty factory-girl {wo year
ago! If you’d a nice stirrin’ daughter:
iu-law, now—’’
“Instead of depending upon other
folks to come and help me—yes,” said
Mrs. Galway. “I'm beginning to think
so myself. But if you haven't nothin’
' etter to do, Sarah Soper, than to re¬
mind people of their short-comings,
you’d better go hack home again.”
“And there wasn’t nothin’ against
Funny Walters as evar I lieerd on,” re¬
flectively went on Sarah Soper, as she
set a match to the shavings and kindling
wood in thj cooking stove, “except her
good looks. Yes, Almira Galway, you
made a mistake there. Zenas ain’t
never been the same man since.”
Airs. Galway moved uneasily in her
chair.
“Where is Zenas, anyhow?" ques¬
tioned the merciless catechist, as she
•ettled the stiining tin teakettle in its
place, and slid the dampers to let the
smoke go up the chimney.
“Gone to town," curtly answered
Mrs. Galway.
“Eh—what for?”
“To get a Hired girl.”
Sarah Soper opened her mouth and
eves.
“Well, I never,” said she. “You
come to that—you, as always said
nothin’ would induce you to keep a
girl!"
“That was before I had the imflam
niatory rheumatism,” sighed Mrs. Gal
way. “Thero ain’t no law against
folks changing their mind*, as I know
on. I can’t be dependent on neighbors
all the time.”
Mbs Soper chuckled softly.
‘ The idee of of Zenas Galway in one
o’ them intelligence offices!” said sho.
“? would like to be hid away and
hoar how he manages itl ’
“I guess Zenas can manage as well
rs anybody!” sharply retorted Mrs.
Gal way.
But she was nettled, nevertheless, and
more than once while Sarah Soper was
cutting tho brea 1, bringing the butter
from down cellar and opening a jar of
preserved blackberries for tea, she said
to herself:
“I ’most wish I lirdn’t made such a
fuss over’Zenas’ notion for Fanny Wal¬
ters!”
While these domestic preparations
w-erc going on in the Galway farmhouse,
Zenas, the son and heir of the estab
lishment, was sitting, in a despairing
attitude, on a hard, unpaintei settee in
Mr. Cummings’ “Headquarters for Do
inestic Aid,” interviewing a long sue
cession of ho^less incapables, of differ¬
ent ages and nationalities.
“Pretty hard to suit, ain't you?’ said
Mr. Cummings, lifting his spectacled
eyes above the ljne of his ledger at last.
“It’s no use,' said Galway, in a de
jected way. “. don't think my mother
would have one of these women in the
house.' ’
“Well, look here,” said Mr. Cum
mings, “here’s a gal just come in.
Mebbe you caa coma to terms with
her. ’’
“But,” spoke a soft voice, “I want
ed a place as compftDioa.”
“Well, this is a place as companion.”
said Mr. Cummings, doggedly, “to an
old lady up countrf—only she’ll expect
you to do the hounwork. ”
A silence followed; apparently the
candidate was considering.
“You’ve been timin’ arter this com
panion place for a week,” urged Cum¬
mings; “and you ain’t had a chance
yet, nor the ghost of oae. Come! bet
ter take what you can get.” a
A slight figure c«me out from behind
the curtained rail r^nd confronted Gal
way. She was pretty, fair-haired
girl, with timid, hazel eyes, and a cheek
flushed wi;h nervous excitement.
••What wage* do yon give?’ •aid
she.
“Eight dollars,” answered Zenas.
“I’d come,” she decided, alter a
brief hesitation. “I must get some sort
of a situation.”
‘•Bat I must take you home at once,”
said the young man. “My wagon is
waiting down below.
! I “I must go hems after my clothes,”
I said the git!. ‘Til bo back heio in
half an hour. Wait’. *
Aud . , she , ranuhed. s ... -t
“Now,” said Mr. Cummings, turning
over a new leaf in his ledger, “I call
that a stroke o’ business for both of you.
They all want to be companions, or sec
rctary, or somethin’ o’ that sort. It
sounds more high-toned, you know.
But, arter all, good honest housework's
the thing!”
Mr. Cummings here paused to talk
with a stout young man, who desired a
position as porter in a store.
Zenas Galway sat staring at the check
ered reflection of the window panes on
the floor, as they moved slowly along
with the westering sun. Aud little
Elfrida Howitt fled swiftly down a nar¬
row street, up a winding stair to a close
little apartment, where lav a pale,young
convalescent, trying to while away the
weary hours with sewing cut-jet beads
on silken gimp for the nearest fancy
store. She looked up, her bright eyes
all inquiry.
‘‘Well?'’ she said, eagerly.
“I've got a place, darling, at last!'
The invalid drew a long breath.
“It’s only eight dollars a month,”’
pursued Elfrida; “but I’ll send every
cent of it to you, dear, until you’re
well enough to get back to the store.
And it’s quite a small family—only one
lady. And I’ll try so hard to suit her!”
“But, Frida—oh, dear little Frida!—
what shall I do without you!” cried the
pallid convalescent, clasping her thin
hands.
“IVe mustn’t think of that,” said
E'frida, resolutely. “You're going to
get well, and then wc shall both do
splendidly. Kiss me, dear. I ve got
to pack my little bag, for the—the car¬
riage is waiting at the 'Headquarters.
“The carriage! They must bo very
grand people,” said the elder sister.
“But you haven't told me the address,
Frida.”
Elfrida stopped packing and regarded
her sister with eyes of puzzled amuse¬
ment.
“I forgot to nsk it,’’ said she, “but
i’ll send it by mail. It will all be
right, dear. Now one more kiss.
Good-by!”
Aud Elfrida ran away, blinded by
the tears she was too brave to shed in
her sister’s presence.
“Is it very wicked, I wonder,” she
asked herself, “to let her think I’m
going to be companion to a sick lady!
But something had to be done, or we
both should have starved.”
It was twilight when Zenas Galway
assisted his companion to alight at the
door of tho farmhouse under the yel¬
lowing maple boughs.
“My mother is sitting there by the
window,” said he. “Go aud speak to
her; she can’t come to you. She lias
no use of her limbs.”
Eifrida Howitt advanced boldly to
the kind-faced little old woman in the
cushioned arm chair.
Mrs. Galway held out her hand with
a smile.
“Who are you?" said she, pleasantly.
“I am the new girl.”
“I am glad to see you, my dear.
What is your name?”
“Elfrida Howitt.”
"What can you do?”
Elfrida colored to the roots of her
glossy, chestnut-brown hair.
“I can sing,” said she, “and paint a
little in water-colors and play the
piano; I can read aloud and em¬
broider—”
“Land alive child!” cried out Mrs.
Galway, “what on earth do you sup¬
pose is the use of all that? Can you
churn? Do you know how to cook,
and wash, and make soft soap, and—’’
“No,” said Elfrida, her fringed
lashes drooping and her lip quivering.
“But I can learn—I’m sure I can learn,
if only you’ll show me how. Please—
do try me!”
And Mrs. Galway found herself cry¬
ing for sympathy before she got
through.
“Do you think l’vo' done right
Zenas?” said she the next day. “The
child knows absolutely nothing about
housework, but she’s strong and will¬
ing. She's broken two of the blue
willow-pattern cups already, and she
let tho clam-soup burn this morning
while she stopped to play with the
kitten. But she's such a sunshiny bit
of a thing, and sho really does want
to learn.”
“Right? Of course you are right,’
said the cheery Zenas. “Never mind
the clam-soup and the willow-pattern
cupss She'll do first-rate when she’s
learned tho A B C of the thing.”
“Aud Z.-ua—”
“Ves, mother?”
“She told me so much about that
invalid sister of hers in the tenement
house down in tho city—the one that’s
had typhoid fever, you know—that I ve
most a mind to send you to bring her
here. She’d get well a deal faster ou new
milk and country breezes, and think of
the company she’d be to Elfrida!”
“It’s a capital idea, mother,” said
Zenas. “I’ll go!”
‘ Because, you know,’’ said Mrs. Gal
way, laying her hand on her sou’s Jim,
“it’s somehow borne in on me that I've
been sort o’ hard and selfish all my life,
and haven’t thought of other folks as
much as I ought. And mebbe this
nfll ction's been laid on me on that ac
count.”
“Nonsense, mother!”
**It’s true Z?na«. IVe been too set
in my way. Things might have been
very different if I hadn’t stood up so
obstinate against your bein’ engaged to
Fauny Makers two years Ago. If I
could only undo that mischief now!”
Her lips quivered; she looked up to
bis face through a mist of tears.
“That’s all past and gone, mother,”
said Zenas. “We won’t fret about jt
now. Tell Elfrida to write to her sister
that I'll drive into town for her next
Tuesday with ths easy carryall, and she
must be ready to come back (with me.”'
When Zenas took the letter ^ to tarry
it to the postoffice, he gave aflittle start J
of surprise.
“Why, Elfrida." said he’ “your sis*
ter’s name is not the same as yours! '
"No,” said Elfrids, innocently.
(I We are only half-sisters; didn't you
know that! But wc love each other
just the same.”
Zenas Galway drove into town on the
following Tuesday, with the easy carry
all and plenty of wraps and cushions,
Once more, in tho yellow glow of twi
light, he brought back a passenger, and
led her up to the arm-chair where Mrs.
Galway sat knitting with half-closed
eyes,
“Here she is, mother dear,” he sai l
exultantly, ‘ Elfrida’s sister—aud the
daughter-in-law you are longing for in
your secret heart!”
“Why, Fanny Walters!” cried Mrs.
Galway.
Fanny burst into team on the old
lady’s shoulder.
“But not unless you bid me wel¬
come,” slio sobbed, “I’m too proud
for that."
“You are welcome—a hundred times
welcome—my daughter!" solemnly spoke
Mrs. Galway. “But—but—I don’t un¬
derstand.”
“Nor I either!’ cried Elfrida, who
had danced joyously into tho room.
“Is it true? Is Zenas to be my brother?
and are we all to live here together?
Oh, Fanny, Fanny, I am so glad!”
“And so am I,” murmured Fanny,
hiding her face on EUrida’s neck.—.
Saturday Night.
He Could Fit Lincoln’s Feet.
A shoemaker who died at Scaudara,
Penn., not long ago, started a fortune
from making shoes for President Lin¬
coln. The President ha l large*ingain
ly feet, and all he wanted wa< to have
easy shoes. He could not get shoemak¬
ers to make his shoes largo enough.
Soon after he was elected in 1863, Peter
Kahler, a Scranton shoemaker obtained
an outline drawing of one of the Presi¬
dent’s feet and scut him a pair of shoes
that suited him exactly. Lincoln wrote
a letter of thanks to Mr. Ivahler, which
he was shrewd enough to have pub.
fished. It brought him fame and lie
removed to New York, became a “doc¬
tor,” a chiropodist and a specialist.
Carriage people patronized him and lie
accumulated a considerable fortune.
Lincoln continued to buy thoes of Kah¬
ler to the timo of his death, Kahler
had visionary schemes of getting groat
wealth two years or more before he died.
He bought about 50 acres of ground on
the border of Harvey's Lake, the lar¬
gest lake in Pennsylvania, in 1S88. The
Indian name of the lake is L ike Scan
dam. Mr. Kahler proposed to build a
big village mid establish a “Kahler's
Sanitarium.” He sunk considerable
money in the scheme, but left a large
estate nevertheless .—New York Sun.

safe and solid basis, came into his house
one day and found his little daughter

- T buttonholes, Sally,” he said,
..
“arc good for nothing. They will not
wear. If you make a buttonhole,
child, mako tho best buttonhole possi
ble. ”
Not content with rebuking tlie child,
he went down tho street and sent up a
tailor, who had orders to instruct -Miss
Sarah in the art of making a buttonhole
properly.
A great-granddaughter of the Ameri¬
can philosopher, a weman who has a
national reputation for her inherited
talents and executive ability, told this
anecdote lately, adding, with pride,
“Since then the women of the Franklin
family make buttonholes that will last.”
How many young girl* of Sarah
Franklin’s age think it worth while, if
they make a buttonhole, to make th«
“best possible?”
An Impressive Sight on a Man-of War
I happened to be on board a United
States man-of-war at sundown during
the call for colors, When the bugle
sounded the first call the band gathered,
at the stern of the vessel on deck, and
at the second call the officers stood with
their caps off facing the fiag as it flut¬
tered down into the hands of the sailor j
who manned the laalyaris, while ths j
band played “Hail Columbia.” Tho I
gathering shades of evening, the mar

The Ago for Consuiiiption.
Consumption is rare in childhood, but
increases rapidly after the age of 15,
and is most common between tbe ages
of 25 and 30. Those who escape it till
the latter age are less and less prone to
it as they advance in years, and may es
cape it entirely, even though they may
h#Tf a hereditary precljiposition to it. i i
A FICKLE TOUNG MAN.
Two Wedding Parties, But Only One
Marriage.
Joseph L. Smith, a young man hold
ing a responsible position at. the Ameri
can Tube Works, Youngstown. Ohio,
< ailed upon Deputy Probate Judge Me
Gown aud re yu sled that ho. open the
Probate office, as he desired a marriage
license issued for himself and Miss
Mattie Bcovillc, daughter of a farmer
living at Poland, sk miles from here,
The license was issued, and Smith then
called upon a minister, stating that he
desired some advice upon a delicate
and, to him, a most important matter,
Smith produced the marriage license,
aud said that while he was engaged had to
Miss Scoville, and all arrangements
been made to have the marriage cole
liratelat her home at 0 o clock that
wealthy widow, and had also evening. promised
to marry her at 9 o'clock that
Smith said that he loved both young
ladies equally well, and. desired to
many one of them but could not come
to a decision, aud for this reason had
called upon the minister for his advice.
The groom elect also said that one of
the young ladies was a Protestant and
the other a Catholic, but the latter,
through love for him, had consented t i
set aside her religion and be married by
a Protestant minister. When asked
how he had come to engage liimself to
two young ladies and agree to marry
both at the same hour, Smith answered,
“Because I was a fool and love them
both.” The minister said to him that
the only advice he could give was for
.Smith to decide which girl he loved the
most, and notify tho other that he
desired the engagement with her can¬
celled.
Smith departed, and shortly requested after,
calling on Judge McGown, to
have the license changed, asking that
the .name of Miss Mattie Scoville be
Biased and that of Miss Lizzie Zimmett
substituted, stating that lie had decided
to marry the latter. Calling a carriage,
he drove to the residence of Miss Zim¬
mett, who was waiting his arrival, and
soon after presented himself with the
young lady before the minister whom
he had called upon.
The clergyman noticed thnt the names
had been changed in the license, that of
Miss Scoville being erased and Miss
Zimmett’s inserted, and, not desiring to
be caught by any trick, he sent for
Judge McGown. The latter explained made
that the change had been legally form.
and that the license was in proper
Smith called Judge McGown aside and
said: “I want you to telephone Miss
Scoville that I will not be down
to-night.” Upon reaching his office
Judge MoGown telephoned tho family
of Miss Scoville, asking if Smith was
expected there, and the reply and came: the
“Yes; the guests have assembled
bride is waiting.” Judge in¬
As gently as possible the Smith that
formed the family that Miss at Zim¬
time was being married to
mett. The guests at the Scoville resi¬
dence were dismissed, and the family
were left to tender such sympathy had as
was possible to tho daughter who
expected to become a bride. While the
message was being conveyed over the
wires to the Scoville homestead, Smith
and Miss Zimmett were being married.

The Color of Plants.
^ French scientific agriculturist, assiduous after
almost thirty years of re
searches on the experimental farm at
Vincennes, ’ has made a remarkable and

Alive with Wires.
The house of one of Edison’s chiefs is
absolutely alive with wires. As one ap¬
proaches the front gate it swings open
and shuts automatically. The visitor’s
foot on the porch rings a bell in the
kitchen and also one in the master’s
study. By touching a button ho opens
the front door before the stranger has
time to knock. An electrical music box
plays during dinner. When the guest
retires to his bed-room the folding bed
unfolds by electricity. When he puts
out the gts a strange, mocking display
of skeletons, gravestones, owls and
other hideous phantasmagoria dence
about on the wall at his feet.
American Enterprise.
Although it has been asserted that
sealskins cannot be properly dressed and
dyed in America, several firms in New
York annually turn out thousands of
skins prepared in their own establish¬
ment by American workmen; so large is
the demand fur their goods that they
cannot wholly meet it. An encouraging
outlook, this, for home industries.
That's the tjuestion.
A witness who had given his evidence
in such a way as satisfied everybody in
court that he was committing perjury,
being cautioned by the judge, said, at'
last: “Mv lord, you may believe me or
not, but I have been wedded to truth
from “ my infancy.” - “Yes, sir,” said
Maulc, . “but , ... the question is, how long
have you been a widower?”
Danger from Catarrh
Catarrh Is an exceedingly disagreeable dieease,
It. varied eyaptoiw-mtschar*, at tbe nose, bad
breath, patn between the eyes, coughing, choking
sensation, ringing noises in the ears, etc.—being
nos only troublesome to the sufferer, but offensive
to others. Catarrh is also dangerous, because It
may lead to bronchitis or consumption. Being a
blood disease, the true method of cure is to purify
the blood by taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
“For several years I had been troubled with a
kind of asthma or catarrh in my throat. My wife
wanted me to try a bottle of Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I
must say I was very much benefited bv using It and
would recommend it very highly."— £lias P. Dev¬
ries, Omaha, Neb.

move along the lines of truth and duty

to the law of light; this alone places a
