Mr. Jona than Brace stood loaning ovor the kitchen window-sill like an exaggera ted copy of one of Raphael's • famous cherubs, his head and'shoolders just visible above the hop vines that gar landed the easement with pale green leaves and enrling tendrils. He was stont and by no means an Adonis to look npon, but there was genuine hub pense in his manner as be breathless- ly awaited bis middle-aged sister’s ans wer to the question he had jnst asked. Miss Belinda Brace, who stood be fore tbe kitchen table making apple pies, paused to ran tbe jiggering-iron deftly round the outer edge of the ernst before she answered— “She said no.” Mr. Jonathan's countenance fell. "Linda," said he, “did she mean it?” "Of coarse she did,” said Miss Be linda, "and I told yon as mnch before didn’t I ?” “But I never heard of such a thing before!” cried Jonathan, excitedly. Tm a well-to-do farmer and she’s on ly a servant." "But sbe’s as proud as Lucifer for all that," assented bis sister. "Where is she ?” asked Jonathan, with a vagne idea of seeking oat the obdurate fair one and pleading his own cause, for ,an offer of marriage chanced to be the question undor de bate. "Gone!” said Miss Belinda, crisply. "Gone ?’’ echoed her brother. “Yes, gone." Miss Belinda set the two pieBin the oven with an emphasis that spoke vol umes for the strength of the baking platters. "Packed up and gone, and 1 don’t know where and I don't care, so yqn needn’t take the trouble to ask, for I’ll keep no girl in my house that feels herself too good to be my broth er’s wife. A haughty thing as I have no patience with.” Jonathan Brace said nothing, but he tookbis elbows down off the kitch en window-sill and walked away, feel ing as if all the brightness had gone out of the summer.sky—all the sweet ness from the balmy July air. "I’ve made a mistake," thought he. “It seems to me my life is all a mis take. I ought to have spoken ont my self instead of trusting that matter to sister. I thought women could man age such matters better than a man. Bat I forgot there were different kinds of women.. Linda is exoellent in driving bargains about butter and eggs and chickens, bnt I donbt if she would be gentle and soft-spoken enough to deal with a question like this. Poor little Dorothy! I wish I’d asked her'myself, though, perhaps, af ter all it wouldn’t have made any dif ference.” Jonathan Bruco bad lived to the age of forty-five without feeling the darts of Cupid, and when he did fall in love it was a serious business. Dorothy Dale bad come to tbe old farm-house to earn her living. She was a delicate lovely girl of nineteen, with >lark gray eyes, black hair grow ing !‘>w on her forehead, and a fresh bloom like that of a peach. She had first come to Lowmoor to try and get tbe place of teacher in tbe district school. But the trustees had their particular favorite, and when the spectacled Miss Keene was appointed, poor little Dorothy found herself pen niless in a strange place. ••What can I do?" she said, piteous ly- , „ “Miss Bruce wants a servant, sug gested tbe landlord’s wife. "Ton dol lars a mouth and a good borne.— Housework ain't so genteel as school teaching, but, in uiv mind, it's more healthy.” And Dorothy caught at the straw which a kind providence seemed to extend to her, and took the position of servant in the Brace family, which' she filled satisfactorily nntil Mr. Jon athan’s unexpected offer of marriage. “Marry him—become his wife!” thought Dorothy, with flashed cheeks and wildly-beating heart. “Oh, nev er, never 1" .And yet, strange to say, she did not actually dislike honest Jonathan Brace. It was only the natural recoil of tbe wild bird from the fowler’s snare, the untamed deer from the hunter's touoh. It was scarcely a month from the day on whioh the middle-aged farmer heard hik doom, that he chanced to to be crossing the bridge which spanned the river, when, all of a sud den, he came upon a light figure crouching in one of its embrasures— Dorothy Dale’s figure. “Why, Dorothy, child I” he ejacu lated, starting baok. She pushed the dark hair out of her eyes and looked defiantly at him. "Yes, it is I.” "Yon are pale,’’ he muttered, slow ly, “and very, very thin.” •Yes,” she said, "I—I have had hard work to live. Very hard work indeed. In truth and in fact I am al most starved.” "Yon wouldn’t many me ?” "No,” she flashed out, "I would not!” “Will yon marry me now ?" “No!” He looked bard at her. •1 think yon are making a mistake,” he said. She was silent, still looking at him in the same sacred, uncertain sort of way. "However,” he added, “that’s nei ther here nor there. Bnt Belinda misses yon. She will be glad to have yon baok again.” "After—” Dorothy cheeked herself instinct ively. “Yes, after everything. Let by gones be by-gones. Remember that Belinda .wants yon and there’s always a home for yon there. And as for me yon needn’t trouble. I shall not be in anybody’s way,” a little bitterly.— “I am going ap to some slate quar ries that I own, and Belinda will be alone.” "Yes,” she said, "I will go. After all, I shall be patting myself under obligation to nobody. I shall be earning my own living.” So she went back again, and Miss Belinda recived her brusquely, bnt still with a degree of kindness that went to the poor girl’s heart. "Are the quarries very largo ?” she asked, wistfully, one day, when she had been about a month at the old farm-house. "Never heard.” “Were you never there ?’’ “Bless yonr hoart, child, no.” “Docs Mr. Bruco often come home ?" "He’s at home now,” said the spin ster. “At home ?” “Why, yes, only he’s staying down to tho tavern. He’s a sort of notion that you don’t want to seo him here.” “He iB very much mistaken,” ex claimed Dorothy. “I—I—it is hor- riblo to think of turning him out of his own house.” “There ho is down in tbe clover meadow now, with the men,” said Miss Belinda. "He’ll be ap this way directly, I dare say. Shall I call him ?" “I—I think I ought to speak to him," said Dorothy, with ber eyes fixed on ber work. “Wants to speak to uie, eh ?” said Mr. Bruce. “Yes, I’ll be there in minute.” Dorothy looked ap a minute later to find him regarding her gravely. “Well, Dorothy, what is it ?” “Mr. Bruce, I am banishing yon from your own home.” “Well, no, you are not,” be an swered, slowly. “I cun be happy any where, little Dorothy, so that I know you are content." “Mr. Bruce—” “Well?” “There is no occasion for your ab senting yourself f.-om your home on my account.” "May I come back, Dorothy?" he asked, suddenly. “You know that you can?” she cried. “And you will stay here?" “Why should I not?" “Dorothy,” “Yes.” “Couldn’t we stay here together ?” She looked ap, coloring, yet with a bright smile. “I have said no, once,” she said,— “if you were to ask me again—” 1 “Well?” “I should say yes.” “Then it’s a bargain,” said he qui- etly, "if you think you can put np with an unfashionable old ohap like me—snob a sweet little rosebnd as you, Dorothy." She raised her innocent young lips for the betrothal kiss. “I have learned to lore yon since I came back here,” she whispered. "I have learned to know you as yon real ly are—the noblest and best of men.” And Mr. Brace never went back to tbe quarries after that Thu .rute-Muklnc Industry tm Oak land, Cal. Philadelphia Star. The Pacific jute mills, of East Oak land, Cal, are turning ont ton thou sand wheat sacks every day, and the foreman of tho institntion considers the business exceedingly dull, saying that last year no day passed when lees than twenty'thousand sacks were manufactured. Four hundred and fifty men and boys, all natives of Chi na, are employed at tho place—tho men average for a day’s work ninety cents, and tbe boys, some not over eight years of age, at the spinning machine, realize, on an average, fifty- seven cents a day. The business cov ers an entire block, and the main building is two stories high, the low er floor being whore the jute is man ufactured into gunny, and the upper floor is where the gunny is sewed up and mode into sacks. From a pass ing glance from tho local truin oue would not believe tbe institution of such magnitude, but when it is under stood that it is the only sack factory 6KOBGIA DOTS.
