CHAPTER IX.
’
WEAK MAX.
It was at dusk a few days after Jane Graves
had come in the UUingsworthsthat she stood
at the dining room window.
It was almost in sight of her old dreary
home, and yet another world; how strange
that the two should lie so near and not change
or shadow each other. But Jane Graves was
not the girl to trouble herself over hard ques¬
tions. She breathed her new atmosphere in
unmixed delight, while latent senses awoke
each day only to lie gratified
At this moment she stood in a very charm¬
ing attitude leaning lightly’ against the
window casing, her prettily rounded arm
raised to play with the curtain tassel. Her
master rather liked to linger in the dining
room * id read his evening paper. Occasion¬
ally lie would glance at the girl who had
such pretty )K>ses; ho had quite a taste for
pictures, and then she afforded him an excuse
for uot a little cynical philosophy. Mr.
Ellingswortb had one peculiarity that would
certainly seem very commendable. He never
spoke rudely to any one; it would have been
impossible for his finely grained nature. She
thought him polite and kind, and in her in¬
nocence imagined I is was the usual manner
of the well bred w ith their hirelings. The
other servants km;-., that humiliation was a
part of their required week’s work, which
their wages were considered to pay for; and
expected to see the thunderbolt fall on this
foolish girl who did not know how precious
wms the purchased privilege of being cringed
to. Hut strange enough the thunderbolt did
not hasten.
Suddenly the girl started, and a deep flush
lit up her dark face. Up the walk, to the
front doorway, came the man of whom sho
thought, with his own lordly stride as if ho
were a prince, indeed, as he deserved to be.
Her heart was in a sweet glow; he had found
her out, and had come for her. She would
leave all these beautiful things with rapture
for him.
Mr. Ellingswortb saw the man’s figure at
the front gate, and the girl's start,.aud
smiled rather disagreeably. He had won¬
dered before why her lover didn’t come, and
here ho was at the front door, no doubt ex¬
pecting to be enug-'pineil in the parlor.
Jane Graves gliT.V'i into the hail. Suddenly
grown shy at the maiden passion of her own
heart, she slowly opened the front door.
What would he say first? Would ho take
her hand which had grown so white and soft
lately? Would he ask to kiss her, and with
beating heart she stood in the open door¬
way.
It had now grown almost dark, perhaps he
did not see her plainly.
“Did you ring?” she asked foolishly, while
her heart sank down, down, would it never
stop?
“Is your mistress in?’’
What was this—some strange mistake?
Could he not see who it was held the door
open for him?
“Mv mistress, Miss Ellingswortb? why yes,
she. is in the ]>ar]or.’’ It must be a joke, but
now he bail frightened her enough, and how
they would laugh together over it. She was
attempting to smile, when she heard the par¬
lor door open behind her.
“Yes, I am here.” It was Bertha Ellings-
worth’s voice. The visitor passed in, and
Jane Graves shut the outer door heavily and
sank upon the floor, pressing with both her
hands against her bursting heart. Then she
leaped upon her feet in sudden madness and
hurried along the hall to the parlor door.
What right hart this rich woman to steal
away her lover? She would care only to
amuse herself with him for a few days and
then her servants would be told to shut the
door in his face. Such cold creatures as she
never love; passion they know nothing of,
only the passion to break honest men’s hearts.
Why not warn him? Oh, but what was Jane
Graves to him? he might remind her how ho
hail spurned her front him once.
Jane Graves went back into the dining
room, now grown dark, and threw herself
into a chair. Tho poor cannot fight against
the rich. Ah! but she could hate her mis¬
tress’ white face. She could curse her in her
thoughts with all the evils in the universe.
The girl burst into a passion of tears.
“What is the trfiuble, little girl?” It was
her master's voice. 8he had forgotten him.
The girl heard him draw a chair near hers,
but she did not uncover her face.
“Was your beau unkind to you? Well,
don’t have anything more to say to him,
then, Jennie.”
Why! the elegant Mr. Ellingsworth was
actually kissing his maid! What difference
did it make? the one she loved hail thrown
her away, and trampled her devotion under
his feet. She even let him draw her shapely
little head to his shoulder, and take her hands
away from her face. They hid her lipis, he
said. Then the door bell rang.
Mr. Ellingsworth ivas actually kissing his
maid!
Mr. Ellingsworth answered the bell him¬
self—a breach of etiquette not frequent with
him, even under the liberalizing influence of
village manners. you,” and
“Mr. Breton, charmed to see
there v.'ai not the faintest trace of ill humor
in liis perfectly trained voice. The old gen¬
tleman might have been the most opportune
of guests.
But his daughter had not been schooled
enough for such self control, and she started
to her feet as her parlor door opened, almost
in consternation. There was quite a study
for character in the room at that moment.
Curran had not arisen; his lips might have
been closed a little tighter than usual , but
his. face did. not even reveal surprise. Mr
Breton had reached tne center ot rt»e room
before he saw whom Bertha had been enter¬
taining, but now he Mood in astonishment—
which he had no concern to hide—snapping
his black eyes from the young lady who was
soon to be his son’s wife to this weaver in the
mill, who did not seem so much out of place
in this fashionable parlor, either. The crisis
had come, and Bertha was entirely unpre¬
pared for it. Her heart was fluttering wildly,
and for the moment whe wished she had never
seen the man whose presence embarrassed
her. A moment before she had forgotten
there was such a thing as wealth or rank,
devoutly confident such a man as her guest
could stand before kings; but the door bad
opened and let in the breath of pride and
caste, scattering the halo about the poor
man’s head. Suddenly she looked with new
repugnance at him she had just thought so
sublime. Why did ho not go? She was
flushed with vexation at his stubbornness in
delaying. Had ho no sense of propriety, to
court a social meeting with her aristocratic
father, who would ridicule hint without his
guessing it, and the blunt mill owner, who
would be sure to insult and browbeat him
plainly? She expected to see him rise awk¬
wardly and shuffle out of the room, perhaps
pulling his forelock respectfully to the com¬
pany that was not for such as be.
CHAPTER X.
WEAK WOMAN.
Curran glanced keenly at tho face of his
beautiful hostess, whose wonted serenity had
all gone, then he rose to his feet, and stood,
while she spoke his name in the briefest form
of introduction. Ho did not seem offended
by the stare of surprise Mr. Breton had for
him. It was a new experience to the mill
owner, meeting his workmen in fashionable
parlors.
“Curran, is it? 1 was sure I had seen you
in tho mill, but you had on a white apron
then.” Mr. Breton laughed familiarly, but
he did not hold out his hand.
Couldn’t Curran see how rudely ho wat
treated ? Mr. Breton’s laugh and tone rasped
Bertha's finer sensibilities, so that she was at
onco indignant with him, and disgusted with
Curran who seemed to bear it so uncon¬
sciously. Curran’s brow was unruffled: ho
hail only folded his arms across his breast,
sometimes a sign of excitement with him.
“Mr. Curran had the good fortune, I be¬
lieve, to do my daughter a groat service.”
Mr. Ellingsworth’s manner was the perfec¬
tion of well bred rudeness. It expressed tho
infinite elevation and polish of the person
who assumed it, far above tho very natural
feeling of disgust at the presence of so vulgar
a person as this workman. It suggested irre¬
sistibly the great contempt such a person
ought to call forth, but at the same time
that Ellingsworth was uuapproacbablo by
even as vulgar a thing as contempt.
“Indeed!" exclaimed Mr. Breton, as he
seated himself, “I will thauk you, too, it was
a good job for you, and I will see it don’t
hurt your interests any, cither.”
“How do you like your work?” went on Mr.
Breton in his harsh mill voice. “I hope you
ain’t one of those who don’t know when they
are well off.”
“I can keep from starving; that is well off,
I suppose.”
Mr. Breton was at loss but for a moment.
“But you poor people don’t save what you
get. You ought to economize.”
Curran’s eyes flashed dangerously, but he
bit his lip and kept silence.
Mr. Ellingsworth saw a scene was immi¬
nent. How little tact Mr. Breton showed in
patronizing tho young man so provokingly
before the golden haired goddess whom be
had no doubt fallen in love with. Something
must be done.
“Excuse ate. Have you had any serious
trouble with your wound, Mr. Curran?”
“I have only lost a few days; that is noth
ing," he answered quickly.
“But it must be considerable for a poor
man!” broke in Mr. Breton, witli his grand
air; “I will direct my paymaster to make it
up to you.”
Curran glanced across the room at Miss
Ellingsworth. He expected to see her face
flushed with anger. She would leap to her
feet iu indignant remonstrance to shield him
from such impertinence, all tho generosity of
her nature in revolt against such return for
his devotion to her.
She was looking at him, but much as a girl
looks at a strange animal she has been pet¬
ting, when suddenly they tell her he bites
Curran turned away from her and ground
his teeth. Then he looked at Mr. Breton.
“Can’t your paymaster make up for tho
pain, too, as well as the lost time?"
Mr. Ellingsworth was at his wit’s end. Ho
saw the cloud gathering in the workman's
eyes, and that his lip trembled with sup¬
pressed feeling when he spoke.
“How long have you been in town, Mr.
Curran?” he said to change the conversation
if possible into safer channels.
“Only six months."
“Why,” volunteered Mr. Breton after an
awkward silence, “that is about as long at
the mill hands have been fault finding so
loudly.” The old gentleman looked sharply
at him. “I don’t suppose you would tell who
has been making the trouble.”
“Yes, sir.” Curran had risen to his feet.,
the flush of offended self respect in his cheeks.
When I came here I found the mills paying
you 13 per cent, dividends, while the help
who ground them out for you, were crushed
almost to the earth. I felt bound to tell them,
as I now tell you, that tho owner has no
more God given right to all the profit of their
work than they to all the profit of lus
investment. ”
“And you are the man who has been stir¬
ring up this mischief here!” cried Mr. Bre¬
ton, almost starting from his chair. He had
caught him at last then. “And do you say
that a man isn’t entitled to the interest on
his money? My money represents a thousand
such lives as yours; L ough' to have a thou¬
sand times the pay.” He had more terrible
guns than of the batteries of logic for the
rebel, but he could not resist the temptation
to explode the fallacies of his class before he
let him go.
The young man's eyes flashed beautifully.
“Your money represents a thousand lives,
then, out of which you have sucked the life
blood? And at how much do you value a
human life? As much as 81,000 for a soul' A
thousand dollars for all tho joys and hopes
and possibilities of a human life? Your val¬
uation is too miserably small. I tell you,”
and Curran threw out his right hand in a
magnificent gesture, “I tell you, a human
creature ought to have for its service a good
portion of the comforts and delights tho
world is so bounteous with. Anything less
is slavery, a slavery worse than negro bond¬
age. Do you call it pay that you give tho
hopeless men and women that weave gold for
you on your looms? Rather say the daily
recurring fact of hunger chains them to your
mill.”
Mr. Ellingsworth had sunk back in his
seat in despair; he might as well resign him¬
self to the situation since it seemed beyond
his power to change it. Mr. Breton was
likely to hear some startling truths before
he succeeded in refuting this dangerous
young man. Perhaps it was just as well,
too; there is no sense in a man’s making his
money as the rich do, by one kind or another
of imposition or injustice and then affect
such ridiculous unconsciousness. There is
no sense in being blind and stupid about
how one comes to be rich, the comfortable
fact rematufbg. What was the use of Breton
ling wtttt turn a young giant as uus:
“I pay my help market prices of labor.
don’t propose to make them gifts.” The
gentleman handled his cane nervously,
he could punish the man enough laU-r.
felt Ellingsworth’s sharp eyes, he must
of something to absolutely overwhelm
argivaent* of his workman. Ho ran
iu his mind the smooth axioms of his
anil tried hard to recollect some of the
perfect syllogisms of the political economists.
Curran stood, his el! ow restinr ■ -• the liack
of tho chair he had been sitt P i nn at¬
titude so dignified and agr tial Mr
Ellingswort h glanced across u, ms daughter
to see if she had observed it. It was not
quite so inconceivable, after all, that Bertha
might have taken a fancy to him But then
his whole associations had been wi’’ 'hei>oor,
and what possible harmony, evei i a mo¬
ment—then Mr. Ellingsworth i n inhered
the maid servant crying at this moment iu
the dining room.
“Naturally you prefer to let your half
clothed ill fed bands make you the presents;
they earn you big dividends; you throw them
a crust of bread, the market price of labor
you call it, and put the dividends in your own
pocket,”
“But it's my money made the mill, and my
management runs it.”
“As for the money,” retorted Curran, “per¬
haps you inherited a part of it, saved by tho
tax laid ou the poor of the last generation, or
you borrowed it, perhaps, on interest, and
made the help in your mill ]>ay the interest
every penny of it; how else could it lie paid?
You did not make your money; no man can
till $3,000,(XXI out of his farm, or dig it out
of a coal mine. You simply took it. Tour
new mills are paid for out of wages you
ought to have given your help; you call them
yours; the new machinery comes out of the®.
They are the real stockholders in it all.”
Mr. Breton had sprung from his seat, but
Curran went on unflinchingly. "It isn’t
earned, it is simply defrauded. The manage¬
ment is doubtless good, but no management
amid, in the righteous course of justice, bring
such vast fortunes into the hands of a few
men; while the thousands who work for
them live and die with the consuming thirst
for happiness never for one hour assuaged iu
their souls. - ’
The old gentleman had come up close to
him as he spol and as ho finish i'll, Cur ran
looked down family uitoaface almost piirplu
with passion. It occurred to hint that Mr.
Breton was about to have an attack of apo¬
plexy. The hand that held his gold headed
cane fairly trembled.
“You have earned your last penny in my
mills!” the old gentleman shouted at him.
“Wo ought to have laws to shut up such ineu
as you.” that
“Mr. Ellingsworth,” said Curran, as
gentleman rose to his feet, “I ant very sorry to
have brought such a scene into your parlor;
it seemed unavoidable after what was said to
me, ami it seems likely to prove more un¬
fortunate for me than for anybody else.”
No one thought of anything to say. Mr,
Ellingsworth vaguely wondered where the
man picked up his neat way of talking, but
then the wealthy, after aU, have no monopoly
of talent.
Curran cast a withering look of contempt
on tho mill owner. “I am sorry, too, to bo
deprived of* the chance to win my daily
bread.”
He did not notice that the expression of
the girl’s face had changed, or that she had
started to come to him, but there was a
grandeur of wrath in his faco and bearing
that awed her. She stood in the center of
tho room, with heaving bosom and fright¬
ened, troubled eyes, watching hint out of tha
door. Then her father came baek through
the hall with his sarcast.c smile finely curv ¬
ing his thin lips.
How beautifully he had known how to pre¬
serve his own honor. It would have been
base and ignoble in hint to liave crawled out
of her parlor at the entrance of her father
and Mr. Breton, self confessed unworthy to
sit in their presence. And for all their wealth
and power and vantage ground, careless of
what it must cost, he had thrown their in
suits in their teeth and shown himself a
grander man, a thousand times, than either
of them.
The warm flood of returning feeling swept
over her soul. She could not bear one more
cruel word against him now. Before her
father could speak she had hurried into tho
hall and shut fast the door so that she should
not hear the bitter sentence that was just
parting Ills lips.
What strange impulse moved her that she
should go to the outer door and look eagerly
down the street? But her insulted guest hail
not lingered. In a moment more she was at
the gate, anil saw his tall form only at u
little distance. No doubt he was thinking
sadly, or perhaps angrily, of her, us he
walked, and he could not guess that sho had
repented, and was eager this moment to beg
his forgiveness, with all the sweet words sho
knew. Bertha glanced back at the house in
hesitation. She could see the slim outlines of
her father's figure shadowed on the curtains.
She could not hear what ho was saying. It
was this:
“It is one of Bertha’s freaks. All women
are subject to them.”
“But I don't understand,” insisted Mr.
Breton, wiping the perspiration from his
heated face. “I don’t understand how sho
can bring herself, a girl of her notions, in
entertain a f . ia Rim this. How long do
you supjxjse this lia-s been going on? Ever
since the dog adventure, very likely. If I
were Philip”-
“But you recollect I ant only' three days
returned from my trip, and am entirely un¬
able to tell you how many times she 1ms met
this very 1 striking individual. Don’t hurry
yourself into mental decline by try ing to ex¬
plain on logical principles a woman’s ))er-
formanees,” smiled Mr. Ellingswortb. “And
I wouldn’t take tho trouble to suggest mis¬
givings to Phil. I would rather trust the
girl’s nature, and I think I know it, than di 1 -
pend on a jealous lover’s reproaches. Why,
my dear friend, I would stake my life on the
girl’s attachment to the traditions of her
position. Our wives and daughters nm
thrice more intolerable, unreasonable aristo¬
crats than we. If she had been guilty of a
touch of foolish sentiment reaction is cer¬
tain, and ah' will only despise the man the
more because of her season of blindness.”
“But sup; •■•ing the reaction came loo
late,” sugg ted Mr. Breton
“Then it lx.ter not come at all,' he con¬
tinued. “The very character you give Lor
would make three people perfectly miserable
—the man sho refuses, the man she marri .
nod.herself ''

Shoes of the Confederacy.
Two ladies of our acquaintance.
wealthy and exclusive at the beginning
of the war, were glad, during its latter
years, through the groat change wrought
in their fortunes, to find that their skill
in making shoes, slippers and gaiters
could furnish them with a modest in¬
come. These shoes were constructed
from old broadcloth coats and pants,
pieces of bombazine and any available
black goods;, their soles were often cut
from the leather tops of worn out slioes.
and their -lacings were the coverings of
hoopekirt wire dyed black. Toward the
close of the wax many of them sold for
$30 and $40 per pair—Jennie H. Judsou.

l)r. Brown Hequard, who has been
preaching that bail ventilation of sleeping
rooms Rod |xor and monotonous food are
the great causes of pithisis, treated of
that disease at the last meeting of the
Academy of Sciences, in Paris, taking
many of his examples from England.
Wherever population is dense, and sleep¬
ing rooms ill aired or overcrowded, con¬
sumption prevails. Dr. Bailey reported
that in Milbank prison there were, out of
100 deaths, forty-five from this disease.
According to tho illustrious French
doctor, a room in which a consumptive
person sleeps is reeking with contagious
germs if the air he exhales is uot carried
off. But how get rid of it in ill built
houses or very cold weather, when it is
as dangerous to op n windows as to keep
them shut?
To meet this difficulty Dr. Brown Se-
quard showed the academy an apparatus the
of his invention. A reversed funnel,
shape of a lamp shade, is placed at the
end ofca tube, so arranged in its curves
and angles that when it is placed lieside
a lied the reversed funnel will lie above
tho sleeper, and draw up the air ho
breathes. The other etui runs into the
chimney of the room. If there is none
it is taken through a heating apparatus
to an air hole. The heat is great enough
to hum the disease germs.—Ixmilon

Even ho (lid Pitt hold up his hands iu
consternation, after a talk with Wolfe,
the hero of Quebec. Even so did a
secretary of state declare that Nelson was
the greatest hxd lie ever talked with.
You must take a man upon his projter
ground, you must measure liis strength
where liis strength lies. Tho duke of
Wellington w. s not an impulsive soul,
wlio could get ui' from the dinner table,
draw hii svrord anti swagger about tho
room bragging that he was to surpass all
the soldiers of antiquity, ns Wolfe did in
Pitt's presence. We wonder not that the
minister 1. ! I up bis hands on Wolfe’s
departure, with words to the effect,
“Must we trust our army to tliat idiot?”
Yet the great duke, long after Waterloo,
paid a large sum to get back a letter
written by him on the evening of tho
battle, which letter lie instantly burned,
saying that when he wrote it ho was tho
greatest ass in Europe. I fancy that,
had we seen the letter, we should in so
far have agreed with the great but by no
means exemplary duke.
