How She Lost Him.
BY AMY RAKDOLPU.
“ Walk in, Deacon Doxlcy—walk in !
ani<i Mfe Li* Brown, her face all tniileH,
ax *he held iheMour w ide open to admit
the portly figure of the good deacon.
Well, now, if this isn't a special privi
lege! I was thinking of you all the
morning, and wondering if it would hi
too much of a liberty to send over a few
of the crullers 1 was frying. Not hut
what your housekeeper is a master-hand
to cook, anil knows a deal more receipts
than 1 do, but —
“ Thankee, Miss Lois —thankee!” said
the honest deacon, wiping his bald brow
with a capacious yellow silk pocket
handkerchief, ns he subsided into tin
big-cushioned rocker. “Its very kin<
of you. I always was partial tociullers,
and the departed Mrs. Doxlcy always
fried up a lot of a Suturdn* morning
hut the widow Darkens sent over a six
quart panful yesterday, and Myrtili.
Dodge just run across the street with :
plate ( f ’em all sugared over, this mori.
ing; so I ain't in no absolute need, jus
at present. Obliged to ye, all the same.
Miss Brown’s countenance fell.
“ Folks do say ns Myrtilla Dodgt
won’t keep her place in the district
school long," said she, “everybody i
talking about the way she goes on wit!
the unmarried trustees, and even make
eyes at the parson himself; and as foi
the Widow Darkens, I do hope you won
go to spoiling your digestion, deacon
with none of her trash. W liy me am
Betsy Bliss took tea there, Wednesda;
night, and of all lumps of lead her but
termiik biscuits carried away the palm
I declare I liaiu’t hardly got over i
yet?"
“ You don't tell me so?" said the den
cou.
“As sure us I live and breathe,” sai<
Miss Dols.
“ Well,” said the deacon, edging un
easily nruund in Ins* elmir, “ I mile*
this morning to solicit vonr -uhscriptio
to our annual donation to tlie consu:n|
tivc missionaries in China and Japan.
“Don’t say a word, deacon —don't
say a word,” smilingly interposed Mi r
Lois Brown, taking up her portmoimie.
“It’s such a Messed privilege to mi •
scribe for those dear Christian souls !”
The deacon’s pale blue eyes glistcne*
with admiration at these exulted sent,
ments.
“I do declare, Miss Lois," said In,
“ it does me good to hear a church-s'st* t
talk so. Miss Myrtilla Dodge d.dn\
subscribe nothing.”
“ Well, I never !” said Miss Brown
rolling up her eyes toward the corner < 1
the ceiling.
••Told me it took all of her salary t<
pay off the interest of the mortgage ct
the old homestead and keep her brotlic
at college.”
“Needn’t tell me that,” sputtered on
Miss Lois; “and .-he with anew mm
mer silk dress, all trimmed with fringe
and a hat with real French roses on it!'
“ And Mrs. Larkens, says it’s all sin
can do to pay her sewing machine hands,
and keep out of debt, these hard times,
w ithout subscribing for any new mission
nry funds,” added the deacon, soberly.
“Phoebe Jane Larkins always was a
close ns the bark of a tree.” said Mis
Lois, shaking her head. Does up bet
plum suss with molasses,and uses brown
sugar for her cake.”
“ Thereforesolemnly went on the
deacon, “ it’s like manna in the wilder
ness, Miss Lois, and cool' waters in
the desert, to meet with ze.d like yours.”
Miss I ,ois Brown simpered and cast
down her eyes like a pleased school girl.
“I’m always willing to cast mv litth
mite into the cause,” said she. “How
much do the other ladies give, deacon?"
“There ain’t no limit,” said the dea
con, “and there ain't no stint. All w
expect of the sisters is to give as they
can afford.”
Miss Lois opened her purse and drew
out a live dollar bill.
‘ It ain’t but ft little, deaeon,” she
said, “ but it'sgiven in a Christian spirit!
if I had tin income like Myrtilhi Dodge,
or quarterly interest money like the
Widow Darkens, I’d be proud to con
tribute more.”
The deacon beamed all over.
“If all the sisters contributed as gen
erously as you, Miss Lois,” said he, “ we
shouldn’t need to go a-beggiu' roun’ the
country.”
And, as he took his leave, with the
subscription-book in his hand and Miss
Brown’s five-dollar bill in his pocket, he
looked around at the trim dooryard,
with iis bunches of dahlilas and chry
santhemums, its neatly painted fence
and snowy-graveled walk, he decided
ifiWWcUy that this was the woman to fill
the vacant shrine of the departed Mrs.
Doxley.
“ She ain’t so fresh and blooming t
look at as Myrtilla Dodge,” thought tin
deacon; “hut after all, looks arc hut
•kin-deep, and 1 do like u liberal spirit.
I'll call around to-morrow evening and
propose! The Bible says it ain't good
for man to lie alone, and I don’t know
of a more stirring, saving crcitur any
where than Miss Lois Brown. And
•die's so generous, too! Ido like that
trait of her character?”
But the deacon had hardly reache
he corner of the shady cottage road hi
fore lie discovered that he had left lc:
blue gingham umbrella behind him, it
the corner of Miss Brown's sitting-room
“There,” said the deacon, “I vow t'
goodness I'm getting more and more for
getful every day ! Now, I've got to g<
back after it.”
Slowly and thoughtfully he retraced
!iis footsteps, and stood once more upot
lie shining threshold of the maiden lady
'mine. Fortunately, the doorstood ajai
‘•She’s busy in the kitchen,” though
he deacon, “and I won’t disturb her."
So he pushed the dooropen, and crop
juietly into the sitting-room to reclain
iis property. But, ns he did so, Mis
Lois’ voi e from an adjoining apartmen
reached his cars, attuned to a very dii
terent accent from that to which lie lin<
•o recently li-tenvd.
“’Tain’t no use of your coming hen
mil bothering me about that paltry thro
loilnrs, Mrs. Mint!” said the gent!
guardian-angel of the consumptive tin.
ii mu lies. “ I've told you again am
ignin I can’t pay it.”
But you hired the dress made, Mis
Lois, and —.”
“I can’t help that,” said Miss Lob
•I'll let you have it in fall pumpkins
>r I'll give you a very decent, half-wort
ilpaea dress of mine, as it is stained oi
lie front width, and ain’t no more us
to me. But I dare say you could dy<
t, and make it up into something us<
fil.”
“ Miss Bois,” pleaded the w retehec
oamstress, “ what could I do with :
vagon load of pumpkins, or a fox
irendtl sof dyed alpaca? I have right
idly eat nod the money, and I hnv<
ten here lor it half a dozen times ai
only. I mod it for my rent, and —.”
“ Well, you can’t have it," said Mi i
jois, her own shrill voice rising big
ihove Mrs. Mint's piteous tones. “It’>
nrd times, and I’ve got to e onomizi.
I's give here, and pay thereuntil I some
mes think I shall end in the poorliousi
Vnd 1 guess you can’t want the mono;
cry bail, or you'd be willing to take i
lit in pumpkins or alpaca.”
“Yes; but. Miss Lois—
“l’ve no time to talk with you ant
linger!” cried Mi-s Brow n, with a flour
sit of her rolling-pin. “That old fool.
,)eaco Doxley, has been prosing ben
mlfnn hour, this morning, and I’n
lean behindhand with my work ; and
uj’d better go.”
Poor Mrs. Mint turned sadly away
k> did the deacon.
Mrs Mint went out of the back kitcli
ii door, under (lie arbor of hop-vines,
vitli a mist of patient tears making lit
tie quivering rings around the familial
oj c s u| Kin which she looked. Tin
leucon crept out of the front entrance,
clutching bis umbrella with the grasp ol
i drowning man.
The next Sunday Miss Lois came sim
pering up to him, with anew fall bat
..a, and a bow of lilac ribbon tying it
under her chin.
“ Well, deacon,” said she, “and how
does the subscription get on?"
The deacon cleared his throat sono
rously.
“ Tolerably, Miss Brown —tolerably !”
said he. “ But that five-dollar bill o’
yourn —.”
“ Yes,” said Miss Lois, sweetly,
“ I didn’t put that into the fund for
consumptive missionaries. I paid it on
vour account to Mrs. Mint, the dress
maker. Here’s the two dollar bill
change back again," opening his purse
and deliberately extracting a crumpled
greenback. “ And the next time, Miss
Lois Brown, let me advise you to bejust
before you are generous !”
“Miss Brown turned as many colors
as the proverbial “dying dolphin.” But
before she could open her astonished lips
to remonstrate, pretty Myrtilla Dodge
stepped up to the deacon to ask his ad
vice about the selection of hymns for the
Sunday school service, that afternoon.
And the next week, when Miss Lois
heard that Myrtilla Dodge and the dea
con were engaged, she tossed her false
curls contemptuously.
“ What fools these old widowers arc
said she. “ Well, Ido hope Myrtilla
Dodge won’t live to repent it!”
But to this day she cannot make out
how the deacon came to know of the
little attiir with Mrs. Mint, the seam
stres*.
