'Suideel Saidee! Where me y»u?
Why don’t you answer me when I
call?’
‘Yee, Aunt Leah—l »m coming
in a minute’ /
•In a minute;’ earcastlcally re
p’ied tbs old ludy. ‘lt’s always ‘in
a minute’ with you, Saidcc! Bull
suppose, because I’m old and help
lets, nr y eomfort is a matter of no
consiquence whatever.’
‘Daar Aunt Leak, you must nev
er tbinK that,’ answered a briglu,
cheery yoiee; and Baldee Lynn
came into the room with a little
tray, where was arrarged on a
snowy napkin some lea biscuits,
haif a dozen pink radishes, a few
thin cut shavings of Bmoked beef
and a iiltle pot of tea. with a cup
and saucer of old bluechiua which
would have beer invaluable to a
collector. ‘You see I had you in
my mind ali t e time, Aunt Leah,’
she said merrily. ‘I gathered the
radishes from our own gnrdeii.
Don’t they look nict?’
Aunt Leah, a withered little-old
la fy,in a dress of worn black silk,
and sharp gruy eyes, peering
through gold-bound spectacles,
lasted of the tea aud shook her
head.
‘lt’s too weak,’ s iid she. ‘lt isn’t
fit to drink!’
‘I put in all the *ea thqye was in
tbe canister, Aunt I-oah,’ said sai
dee, with a distressed counten
ance.
Aunt Leah pushed away the
cup, with an expression of dis
taste.
‘I I is as I might have expelled,’
said she. ‘Mv nieces have too lit
tle thought for my comfort to
study my poor and few necessities.
Neyer mind the tea; I can drink
cold wuter, I dare sayl’
Saidee wrung her hinds in des
pair. How could ahe tell this
weak, feeble old lady, above whose
declining years hung the threaten
ing Damocles’ sword of heart dis
eise. of their narrowing circutn-
Btaoces, of the empty exchequer,
the clamoring creditors, the piti
ful straits to which they were re
duced?
‘What shall I do?’ ohe askes her
self, as she went g’o'Hy back to the
little kitchen of the ruinous Goth
ic cottage, wbica they had obtain
ed fer a ridiculously low lent be
cause it was minous. ‘l’ve bor
rowed of the rector’s wife twice,
and I m athatned to go there sgiiin
aud I’ye sold everything I oau lay
my hands on. But,’ g'ancing up at
a picture which hung in the hall
beyond, ‘theie’s tbe Velasquez still.
A Velasquez is always worth mon
ey. Belle will -cold about parting
with it and aunt I>*ah will mourn,
but we can’t live on air and like
tbe fairies. 11l take it down to
Mr. Bruner, the artist, thi* after
noon and ask him to get us a
purchaser. Poor people such as
we are can’t afford to retain old
family relics.’ And so, when Auut
Leah was indulging in her after
noon nap, and Bslle, the beauty of
the family, was ironing out the
the flounces of her white mus'in
dress for the morrow’, picnic, va
Hunt S lide# climbed on a chair,
took Ihe uufraoied piotur# down
(it was tli. head o! some old Span
ish grandee, with a stiff pointed
ruff and an evil leer in the eyes)
wrapped it up in a newspaper and
crept across the meadows with it
to He village.
Mr. Bruner was in hiestudin, a
gr'.zz'e beaded.blunt old gentleman
in a belled linen blouse, and a fa
ded yet vet i.»p. He nodded kind
ly at Saidee, Who bad once taken
a few lesson, from him, hut when
she displayed the canvas be Bhook
his head.
“H'. w much do you think it is
north? asked 8 ddee, wistfully.
’ Nothing j’ Said Mr. Brunet.’
LAFAYETTE. GEORGIA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1884.
‘But,’ cried the girl, It is a Vel
a quez?* said Mr. Btuner, eon
leuptuously, ‘My dear, there
isn’t n picture denier in the coun
try who would give fifty cents for
it. It’s a mendacious imitation,
and a wretched one at that!’
80 Saidee tied ip the poor pia
lure.aud went home again, shed
ding a few tears as she walked
under the whispering trees.
‘My Ic st hope gone!’she thought.
‘But I’ll net tell Auat Leah or
Belle that it is so imposture. They
have always taken such innocent
pride in the Velasquez.’
As sbe cams past the old brick
house at the foot of L icust lane,
& load of furniture was being car
ried in, for it was the secund wees
in May. Wicker olmirs, twined
with blue ribbon, a cottage piano,
cases of b oks, engravings, bird
cages, plauts—ali sorts of pretty
things.
Saidee paused and looked at
them, not without interest.
‘I wonder who our new neigh
bors are to be?’ ahe thought.
Just then out 'rotted a stout,
cherry cheeked old !ady, with her
cap ali on one side and a
worsted shawl tied over her shoul
ders.
Oh! s»id she; ere you tbe young
woman who disappointed us yes
terday about cleaning?
No, said Saidee, crimsoning to
her temp’es.
Oh, dear! oh, dear! said'tbe old
lady ; what is to become of Us?
All the furniture coming in, and
my daughter lame from falling off
a step-ladder, and lh V girl gone,
and— t ut, with an eager Fok,
perhaps you con recommend some
one to help us settle.
‘I am sorry to say that I cannot,’
answered Saidee, and she vanished
behind the lilac-hedge, rather
aroused at the mistake the old lady
had ■sale.
Belle was fu!! cf new* that even
lag.
‘O Said' e,’ she cried, such a nice
family is moving into the Locust
House!’
‘Y>-s,’ said Saidee; ‘I saw the
furniture carts at the door, as I
came back from the village this af
ternoon.
'Ob, the village! 1 cried Belie toss
ing her blonde head. 'lt is strange.
Saidee, how much time you get lo
run about and enjoy yournelf,while
I am drudging at horn*. But
there is a young gentleman there —
tbe hsndsomeet man, Alice Alleu
says, thatsh. every saw—and Mr.
Pyle knows kim, and be is to be at
the picnic to-morrow, to get ac
quainted with tbe young people of
the neighborhood. Wont it be de
lightful?’
‘Very,’ said Saidee, indifferent
ly.
But while Belle was talking she
bod made up bar mind what to do
on tbe day of tbe Majr picnic.
Early in the morning, while the
flush of sunrise wag still crimson
ing the sky, and blonde Belle lay
asleep with her yellow hair in
crimping pins, Saidee arose, dress
ed herself quietly, and slipped out
of the back door like a little gray
shadow.
At 8 o’clock Aunt Leah rapred
witli her cane on theceilixg of her
room, which was directly beneath
the one occupied by her nieces.
Belle made her appearance pres
ently, in a faded calico wrapper
rubbing her eyes after a drowey
fashion.
‘Where’s breakfast T said Aunt
Leah.
‘Where's Saidee?’ counter-ques
tioned Belle. '‘Ob, 1 know, tbe
selfish thing I She has got up early
aud goo* down into the woods to
get somu pink azaleas for her hair
before the other girls think of it.
Sbe wants to astonish us ali at tbe
picnic. But I think sbe might
have told ine.’
‘l’m afiaid Sadie thh.ks more of
hereelf than she does of us,’ said
Aunt Leah, eourly.
And Belle, in a very ill humor,
began lo prepare tbe breakfast—a
task generally assumed by her erld
es'. *isur.
While fladie, harrying down the
path by the swamp, took tbe short
cut acres# the clover meadow, and
was presently knocking at tbedoor
of the bri<.k boose where tbe load
of femitura ha 1 sto'd the day be
fore.
The old lady with the crooki-d
cip aud cherry cheeks came to the
uoor.
‘Have you yet engaged any ore
to help you get. setlled ?’ said fchii
dee blushing very prettily.
W# can’t hear of a soul!’ said
tiie old lady. ‘Every one i* engag
ed jest now, and ’
‘lf voe thought I could be of use
‘faintly begin Saidee.’
‘Bless me, child !' said the old la
dy, ‘you are too slight and small.
B«sides,’ looking closer at ber, ‘you
ere a Indy.’
‘But I know how to clean a bouie,
for all that,’said Saidee, valia-n.ly.
‘l’ve dune it every year at home.
We are ladies but we are not peo
ple of means. And I think you
will be suited with roy work. It i*
necessary tl at I should earn a little
money, and ’
‘Come in, my dear!’ auid tbe old
It dy—‘come in. and have a cup of
coffee with us. lam Mre. Hart
wick—and this is my daughter
Kate.’
‘Saidee Lynn!’ exclaimed the
soft voice of pretty young girl, ly
ing with a spiaintd ankle on the
eof u
To ber amazement, our beroine
recognized one of ber schoolmates,
Katharine Hartwick, who had
graduated in the same class with
her at a bearding sekeo two year*
ago.
‘But you surely never bavs come
bere to —work ?’ said K te, in
amazement..
‘Yes, I have,’ said bnve Saiden
‘Why sit any less crsditahle to
clean paint and wash windows,
than lo play croquet or do Ken
sington sticheß ? And my Aunt
Leah has lo»t all her little property
and we ars very, very poor I S
now you know all about it. And
when f have eaten my breakfast, it
Mre: Hartwiok will givemea clean
ing cloth nnd plenty of soft soap
I’ll show her what I can do.’
8o that Miss Lynn was mounted
on a stepladdar, polishing off an
antique mirror, when Kate’* soft
voice wae heard saying;
"Oh, Harry, is that you? We
supposed, of course, that you were
at the picnic. Mias Lyrn, this is
my brother Harry, llarry, let me
present you to Saidee Lynn, my
daar old schoolmate, who tins come
bere to help us clean house.’
Miss Lynn made ns graceful a
bow is she could under the cir
cumstances. Mr. Harry Hartwick
inclined his head.
‘At the picnic, indeed I’ be retor
ted, merrily. ‘Not at all. I’ve been
hunting high and low for some one
te help you, anil for lack of any
success I have returned to do a lit
tle white-washing rnvselt.’
‘Oh. have yow?’ said Saidee. ‘I
know such a nice receipe for kalao
mine— as white as alabaster, and it
won’t rub off at all.’
‘Let's make it,’ said Mr. Hart
wick, promptly.
No picnic'could ever have been
more delightful than this day
among dust, whitewash, scouiing
sand and brooms.
Kate, on her sofa, hemmed cur
tains; Mr. Hartwick buitled to and
fro ; Saidee, with her curly hair
tied up in a handkerchief, scoured
paint, and Hairv whitened ceilings;
and at twilight had three rooms in
perfect ordtr.
‘We have achieved wonders,’said
Kate, looking around at 'he neatly
tacked carpets —the soft, garnet
plush hangings—the pictures on
the walls—the crystal biightness
of the windows—while Mr». Hart
wick took Saidee mysterious to one
side.
•My dear,’ said she, ‘I do not
knowhow to (b&Mt vou auilieiofit

a dollar and a half, although’—
‘But I shall not be asbnmed to

‘Why should I? That is, if you
really thing I have earned it,’
‘Mv dear you have mors than

‘Of course I will come,’ said 8 i

‘Well,’ill* cried, bri.lulv, to lor

‘Awfully stuyid !’ yawned Belle
‘And tbe hun-isomn young gentle

’I) dn’t he?’ sail Ssidce.
‘And where have you been ?' de

‘How is whisky manipulated?”
' repeated n retired liquor dealer,

Imd flred.the query at n>m
‘Yei what, is the secr<t of tuauip
■ ulatml goods ?’’
‘You don’i snow ?’

‘Well,’observe i the scribe'e infor

of doing up toddies. I can tell you

but you needn't go much further
than thu! longing for pure whisky.
You wiil hardly find it eauil/.’’
‘Holt do they umuipulste il ?’
‘The basis ol ull mapipulnled
' whisky ant wines is cologne spirit*
or as the liquor men any ’high
wines. 1 When you go down the
streets and se* a nice, new barrel
marked ‘liigbwio s' you may know
that it is what you usually hear
#1 -iikcn of n* cologoo spirits, and
that it is hound for a rectifying
tun.’
‘And what is co’ognespoils?’
‘Cologne spirits i# a low grade of
alcohol, we may sav. That is, il
contains about twice as much ul
coiiol as ordinary whisky, hut not
a* much as lbs pure alcohol which
is the acme of purity,’
•Weil?’
“Walt, you wero never in u recti
fying house ?’
*N vrr; that is—hut go rn.”
‘Well cologne spirits is manufac
tured of corn, ns a general thing,
nnd is turned out in great quanti
ties by distillsriH#, all over the
country. It is a staple article and
the manipulation of it in whi-Ky
mulling is no big secret «<th dealers ,
who are up In tbe business. Well,
to proceed, a rectifyer buys, say a
barrel of cologne spirits or'igh
win*a as they cull M. He pays, any
a dollar fifteen Os course h« buys
more than a barrel, but fur Ihe sto
ry ws will mak* it a bairel. He
carries that barrel oi cologne spirits
into his rectifying room. Therele
has his rectifying tubs with their
perforated lottoms supplied with
chaiecal. The bane! of cologne
spirits is tilted into the tuba along
with something over a barrel of
water —plain old-fashioned Water
say foity-four jer cent, of spirits
and fifty-six per cmt. of water.
That passes through the charcoal
and becomes deodorized. The fu
sel oil is extracted and the fluid is
tasteless. That is neutral spirits.
That stuff is clear n* water, and is
ready for manipulation. If you
want rye whi.ky you dutup in a
few gallons of firat-slhee rye wlinfky
color it with burnt sugar or onro
mel, as the druggists call it, and
mellow it down with sirup.’
‘Common syrup?"
‘No. You get s;rup from tie
rock candy fuctorhe, or you take
eight pounds of sugar to the gallon
of water nnd make your own syr
up.’
‘Don’t you put ary poison, to
baceo plugs, etc?’
‘N. there is nothing of that sort
in whisky.’
‘Why, you dsn't mean to leV one
that the bottled berzine that lifts
the t"p of a man's head off is the
simple compound hayediscrih
eu?”
‘I mean that there fs ro vulphu
ric acid, no tobacco and no unnat
ural poison in whisky usually. If
the poieon is theTe it is the nutuial
poison of alcohol. The mure alco
hol the more poieon. It is tru#
that some dis'illers use lime in
