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. flUYDRl** I EXTRACTS WIUSAL FVRHT FUVORS Cud by the United States Government.
