Tlie night briforo lie left be erooked hie
pip* more rigorouxly than ever before
since the night prior to the birth of tlieir
first little one. He tried to hide behind
the Ixtnlc of smoke that Itoubie n.ight
not find him. <j run'mu »lowly rocked
lack and forth in her iiiile low chair,
her hand in ids upon her lap. I toll ■ had
a single thought. {Srilbr r r|mkc.
At last hu laid the pipeupon the bland,
and soon the house was dark.
Gran'ma HuMiell did not like tobacco
amoke. Throughout the many y«-ars of
her wedded life eho liad tried hard to
h am to like the odor of it, but hud fail
ed. Her husband, however. rupponed
tlurt she was fond of it. Men are clumsy
aixmt Hiicli things. They «lo not feel out
the truth as women do. They trust to
their senses and their reason, anil there
fore women cheat them.
“It is tlie dear man’s only fault,"
Charlotte Ilubbell had said to henelf
when site was a young wife, “and hie
shall never know that I dislike it."
For more than forty years she had
lovingly deceived him. After supper
site would bring his slippers and his
pipe; and lie, stupid lover, would puff
and toast his feet and say and feel:
“Here is peace that paaseth under
standing."
Then lie would look up into the lightly I
curling smoke and try to think how
miscrablo lie should bo If lie had found
n wj^e whoso tastes were not thus suited
to his own. And lie would lay her head
upon his shoulder anil kiss her; and that
was all she wished. It told her be was
happy in her love.
Once, in the street, she jwssed a man
nod faintly caughtti«> odor of his freshly
lighted cigar. She rather liked it.
“If Alfred would smoke cigars!” she
thought.
Slyly sho laid away spare money until
she had enough. Then one day she called
the judgment of a friend into service, and
that evening sho brought the slippers and
a box of choice cigars.
Her husband took her in his arms and
blessed her for her thoughtfulness.
"Always thinking of my pleasure," ho
said. “But, sweetheart, you should have
purchased something for yourself in
stead. The pipe Is good enough for me."
“Nothing but the best is good enough
for you,” she said, honestly and proudly.
Sho hud really forgotten that she had
bought (lie cigars for herself.
“You precious woman!” he replied,
still holding her iu his arms, and there
iu sweet, deep silence they drank the
joy that blesses only such immortal
souls os merge thus, two in one.
“But, my darling,” hoot length contin
ued, “I am not going to smoke these
cigars. They arc too choice, too expen-
eivc. I cannot afford such luxuries. \Ye
will keep them for special occasions,
when our friends come to see us. The
old pipe is good enough for me.”
He thought he had said it well, awk-
wsird man. And sho let him continue to
think so, tactful woman. But sho knew
he liked the pipe better.
Alfred Ilubbell was not the kind of
man to become wealthy. He had not
an extravagant habit, unless indulgence
of a gener us naturo be extravagance.
He was a furrier with a well established
trade, but he was honest and charitable,
and these two qualities are seldom
united with that other quality which
piles up fortunes. Yet he was content
ami his wife was content, and after ail
contentment is the only real wealth
“My pipe is tho only luxury I wish,”
he said.
“His pipe is his only vice,” said she.
When he had his smoke in the evening
he always laid his pipe upon the little
lnmpstaud near his easy chair. The next
morning Mrs. Ilubbell put itoutof sight.
Sometimes it made her almost sick to
handle it, for, like all true lovers of the
pipe, he clung to ouo until it was so
saturated with tobacco oil its odor was
uusiieokable.
The children of the neighborhood had
learned to love tier and call lier“gran’ma.”
In the years long gone she had borne and
nursed two babes, but they had died
upon her breast. Let no man try to tell
what this must mean. Tlie language of
Imagination fails. . Experience alone can
know tlie thrill of motherhood, the
purifying sorrow of its loss. She was
everybody’s gran'ma now that she was
end ever must be nobody’s.
When the financial panic swept like a
blight ovor the country the furriers were
Among tho first to feel its damning
breath. When economy becomes neces
sary to men accustomed to tlie luxuries
they buy more wine, they go of tener to
the theatre, they get' faster and costlier
horses; these are tho diverting influences
that keep tlieir minds turned from tlieir
troubles. But it is the women who sup
port the furriers, and women suffer losses
in another way—* harder and a braver
way. Man runs away from sorrow;
women faces it and bears it. He flees
and frightens it with laughter; she stays
and welcomes it with tears. He spends;
she saves.
Mr. Hubbell now passed his evenings
down town. The presence of the men
he met inspired lilm with the courage he
felt bo soon should need, for men are
brave only in groups. Pride is the brav
ery of man.
When the sheriff put his padlock on
the Hubbell store the proprietor felt
better, more at ease. The worst had
come. The agony of expectation, at
least, was at an end. Then, too, he had
been providing against this situation,
and had engaged provisionally with a
wealthy eastern house to go to Hudson
Bay and spend tho winter buying furs
for it. Gran’ma, too, had been prepared
for this. She had wept in secret over
the dread prospect, and bravely smiled
when he was near. It was tlieir first
parting.
“And he so old and feeble and aocus-
Gran’ina’s kindly eyes were red with
weeping. She sat alone. She liad never
felt *i much alone before.
She arose to put tin* house in order.
She put outlier hand to take the |.ij>c. the
old black pipe, from tlie stand where
lie lied laid it. Then she stopped and
brushed her eyes, and went nlxxit tin
other work. More than once site started
to re.nove tlie pipe, Imt stopped and saidr
"Not yet.”
Neighbors came in to cheer her up
All sniffed the pipe and made her sad.
One of them said:
“What is that I smell?”
Gran’ma answered: “It is Alfred's pqie.
It Is dreadful: but I—I can't take it away
—not now."
“Nor 1 wouldn’t," said the woman
tenderly.
“1 will after a while," said gran’ma.
the tears ertraing to her eyes again. •
When a week had gone by the pipe
still lay upon the stand. A neighbor'*
child came in.
"Gran’ma. why don’t you throw that
nasty old pipe outdoors?”
"1 can’t, my child.”
“1 can.” and the child reached for it
Gran'ma grasped the little arm so sud
denly, almost roughly, that the child
began to cry.
“Don’t touch it—don’t ever touch it,”
said gran’ma, with something like se
verity, and then she knelt and pressed
the frightened child clooe to her breasl
and smoothed it with her tender kisses
Poor gran'ma’s eyes were red most ol
tlie time now. The passing days did no!
seem to take her grief away with them
Tho pipio was in its noxv accustomed
place, and gran’ma cautioned everybody
not to touch it- She talked so much
about it and was so earnest in tier warn
iugs that the people in the neighl-ortioou
looked sorrowful and tupped their tern
pies with .Uieir finger tips and,shook
their heads. The’children wcijt still
further. They told gobiki stories' abotil
tlie old black pipe, and one of them do
clared tlwt she had seen a pair of fiery
eyes down in the howl and hoard a groan.
In a few weeks nobody hut the post
man made calls on gran’ma. One day
at last he also ceased to come. Poor
gran'ma sat and watched and waited,
but he piasscd the house and wont upon
his way. Then for hours the ury eyed
woman sat and gazed upon thejler.r old
pi|>e and felt that it was ail of life for
her. Could she but have wept! But
grief had dried the fountains of her
heart.
“Why did I let him go from me? Why
did I let him go?” sho moaned.
One night she thought she hoard a tap
upon the door. Her heart stood still.
"They’ve brought lus liody home,” she
thought.
Tho blood rushed and bounded through
her head. She heard only its heavy
sound. She swooned and sank from her
chair.
When she regaiued her consciousness
she looked first to see that the pipe was
undisturbed, then hurried to the door.
All was dark and dreary. No one was
there. She weut to bed, and nature
kindly- sent her off to sleep.
Some time in the night she awoke
with a great indefinable joy in her heart.
What was it? A presentiment of some
impending happiness? Sho seemed to
breathe it from the very air. It touched
her senses from afar and penetrated to
her very soul. What could it be? It
seemed to come with greater and still
greater force. It was—yes, now she
knew—it was tobacco smoke. Aud tliea
her husliand softly opened the chamber
door and she saw him standing there,
the old black pipe between his lips and
curls of smoke above his head.
“You did not get my telegram?” ho
asked when they had wept and laughed
together on each other's breast.
“No. When?"
“Why, yesterday.”
It was the messenger who brought the
gladsome news whom sho had heard tlie
evening before.—Washington Post.
Tlie Alligator*’ Xrat
Alligators’ nests resemble hay cocks
more than anything else to which they
can bo compared. They average about
four feet in height and about five feet in
diameter and are constructed of grasses
and herbage. First the mother ’gator
deposits ono layer of eggs on a floor of
mortar, and having covered this with a
stratum of mud and herbage alxiut eight
inches thick, lays another set of.egga
upon that, and so onto the top, there
being commonly from 100 to 200 eggs in
a nest. With their tails they then beat
down the tall grass and weeds, to pre
vent the approach of unseen enemies.
The female watches her eggs until they
are hatched by the heat of the sun, and
then takes her brood under her own
care, defending them and providing for
their subsistence. Dr. Lutxemburg, of
New Orleans, once {tacked one of these
nests for shipment to St. Petersburg, but
they hatched out before they were start
ed on tho long voyage, and were kept
about the doctor's premises, running all
over the house, up and down stairs,
whining like young puppies.—St. Louis
Republic.
