Now, | then!” He drove the stout pony close to the raised platform which extended away ; from the station. Mr-. Pilkington pushed Phrebe into ths back scat, nnd followed her witli i lightning haste. “Not that way!” she cried, grasping at the reins, a Ezra would have headed for the highroad. “Drive straight to 1 Srpiiie I’ulteney's. This gal’s n thief! I I'm going to have her arrested before she is a dny older!" “Eh!” said Ezra, staring from his mother to Plimbe, and then back again. “She’s stole my syiottcd pongee hand kerchief my iinnilkercbief that I bought a bargain on Grand Street this very morn ing!” shrieked Mr-. Pilkington. “It's it's »iy handkerchief,” faltered poor Phrebe, feeling as if she were in a terrible nightmare from which there was no awakening. “A likely story!” clamored the enraged housewife. “I've always heard of the wiles and tricks of these city minxes, but I never realized it until now. Drive on, Ezra drive quick! She shall lie lodged in tiie county jail tins very night!” “Are you sure you ain't mistaken, mother’" said kind Ezra, compassionating the look of pallid misery in the young girl’s face. “Mistaken, indeed!” sniffed the old lady. “Drive on, Isay! Don’t lose any more time, or Squire Pulteney will have gone home for the night.” She herself took possession of the reins and slie spoke and chirruped to the horses. “But, mother pleaded Ezra. Even ns ho spoke, however, poor i I’honbc, driven wild by vague terror and I an instinctive desire to escape, hail flung herself from tiie wagon to the ground. “Stop—for heaven's sake, mother, stop!” shouted Ezra. “Don't you see that her dn -.s is caught in the wheels?" The little horse stopped. He always stopped, on general principles, whenever a suitable opportunity presented itself and the very slightest “Wjioa!” would invariably bring him to a dead standstill. Ezra sprang from the wagon to disen tangle tin helpless figure in the dust, and Mrs. Pilkington scrambled after with a vague idea that i'luebc might yet get up and try to run away. A" she jumped down her satchel fell prone into the road, nnd bursting open the overstrained hitch, disgorged its con i traits on the dewy grass of the roadside, first and foremost among which was—a spotted pongee handkerchief. “Good Land o’Moses!” piously inter jected Mr<. Pilkington, “if there ain't the dratted old pongee handkerchief, arter nil!” And she stared helplessly, first at its ■ prim and undisturbed folds, nnd then at Phivbe's handkerchief--exactly the same I in color, pattern and iubric. “Sin- (ini't a thief, arter all!” said Mrs. | Pilkington, her whole nature overflooded iby the rising tide of remorse. “Poor I child! and I'm afeard she’s hurt a try in’ | to run away from nothing at all.” I Pho'be's ankle was slightly sprained, that was all, nnd by this time she was able to smile nnd answer kindly Mrs. Pilkington's numerous questions and con dolences. “Can 1 ride home! Oh, of course 1 can!" said she, in reply to Ezra's interro gations. “My ankle is only the least bit lame.” 1 Old Fanner Pilkington was anxiously I looking cut for them, when, considerably later than he bad expected, the wagon drove up ami Mr- I’ilkington made haste , to explain everything to him. “And ain’t it queer.” said she, “that me and I’ uvbe should both hev bought pongee handkerchiefs just alike on I Grand Street!

Year Itefore hist a bright-looking young man entered our counting-room is r< sponsc to an advertisement for an as sistant shipping clerk. He told the usual tale of how he desired a position more than wages for the time being, and was willing to accept a nominal salary to start in on. The old man was feeling in particularly good humor that afternoon, mid said pleasantly to the new comer: “Well, sir, what would you consider n nominal salary? What would you be willing to accept in luginning?” Tiie young man picked at the lining of his hat with his fingers, and deferentially replied: “I want to show you, sir, that I mean business, and I will work for one cent for the' remainder of this month, pro viding you think it would not be too much to double my salary each month thereafter.” “That’s a novel proposition, surely,” said the old man with a smile. “Do you know what you are talking about, my dear boy?” “Well, sir, my principal aim is to learn the business,” responded the young fellow, anil I would almost be willing to work for nothing, but I’d like to feel nnd be able to say that I was earning something, you know.” “I’ll take you,” remarked the old man. “One cent, two cents, four cents, eight, sixteen,” he enumerated. “You won't get much for awhile,” he added. He took him up to the cashier. “Tliis is John Smith,” he said. “He will go to work as an assistant shipping clerk to morrow. His salary will be one cent this month. Double it every month from now on.” “In consideration of my working for this small salary might I ask you to as sure me a position for a definite period?” inquired John Smith. “We don’t usually do that,” replied the governor; “but we can’t loose much on you anyhow, I guess, and you look like an honest fellow. How long do yotl want employment?” “Three years, sir, if agreeable to you.” 'Well, by Jove, the old man agreed, and young Mr. Smith, on pretence of wanting some evidence of stability of his place, got the governor to write out and sign a paper that he hod been guar anteed a position in the house for three years on the terms I have stated. He worked along for six months with out drawing a cent. Ho said he would draw all his earnings Christmas. The cashier one day thought he’d figure up how much would be coming to the young man. He grew so interested in the project that he kept multiplying for the three years. The result almost stag gered him. This is the column of figures he took to the old man. First month, 01; second, .02; third, .04; fourth, .08; fifth, .10; sixth, .32; seventh, .C4;eighth, $1.28; ninth, $2.50; tenth, $5.12; eleventh, $10.24; twelfth, $20.48; thir teenth, $10,110; fourteenth, $81.92; fif teenth, $103.84; sixteenth, $327.68; seventeenth, $055.30; eighteenth, sl,- 311.72; nineteenth, $2,023.54; twen tieth, $5,217.08; twenty-first, $10,494,- 10; twenty-second, $20,988.32; twenty third, $41,970.64; twenty-fourth, $82,- 953.28; twenty-fifth, $165,906.56; twen ty-sixth, $331,813.12; twenty-seventh, $063,620.24; twenty-eighth, $1,327,252.- 48; twenty-ninth, $2,054,504.96; thir tieth, $4,609,009.92; thirty-first, SB,- 018,019.84; thirty-second, $17,230,039.- 68; thirty-third, $34, 172,078.38; thirty fourth, $08,044,150.72; thirty-fifth, $137.^88.313.44; thirty-sixth. $275,776.- 020.88; total salary for three years, $552,551,253.65. The governor nearly fainted when he understood how, even if he was twice as rich as Vanderbilt, he would be ruined in paying John Smith's salary. He concluded to discharge the modest young man at once. Smith had figured up how much would be due him, and re minded the old man of his written agreement. Bather than take chances in courts and let everybody know how he had been duped, the governor paid Smith $5,000 and bade him good-bye. I’ve heard he tried the same dodge in Chicago after leaving here. Courier Journal. Business C’omplicatinns. A D.ikotian met an old friend while on an Eastern trip. “I hear that Bill Applejack who went out to your country has failed in business.” “Yes.” “Hard times?’• “No.” “Too much competition I’’ “No. I think not." “Too little attention to business?” “<>h. no, he worked hard." “I don't see why he failed, then." “Well, you see, a few determined gentlemen ou the board of trade got a new inch rope around his neck and forced him to make an assign ment.” “Horses?” ,■ “llor.-es." t'BeUiae Z'-.'l. Ch iM'd by a Plant. One of the most familiar plants in Southern California and Arizona is the tumble-weed. In the fall the gardens of - >mc localities arc covered with them, the plant being a low bush, about two fret in height, and spreading out to sev eral feet in width. So small and weak arc the roots that when the plant goes to s < 4 the breeze detaches it and the plant goes rolling along like a ball, scattering its seeds broadcast over the land miles from where it originally grew. In Ari z >na the tumble-weed sometimes attains mainmotb proportions. I have seen them five feet across, and so bulky that one would easily upset a man when traveling at a good rate of speed. The following incident shows that a man may be chased by a plant: “I was travelling throug 1 Arizona on horse back some years ago," saiil the narrator, “and one day found myself in a desert plain almost destitute of vegetation. Tiie only thing in the way of a shrub were numbers of dead tumble weeds, many of gigantic size, and, curiously enough, they were piled in great heaps as if some one had hauled them together to burn them; but as there was no object in doing this, I concluded that the wind had done it, and I found later that my supposition was correct. “I had gone about ton miles in this tumble-weed count-y when I noticed a storm coming up tr the west. There was not the slightest shelter, so I kept along, but finally saw a big pi e of tum ble-weed and mide for it, thinking to get under its lee, and I just about made it when the rain commenced. The pile was about ten feet high, and I thought I had a good shelter and dismounted ; but I had hardly reached the ground when a gust of wind came that shook the heap as if it had been made of paper, and a big tumble-weed on top rolled off onto the horse. Fortunately I had not left him, and as he leapt back and reared I hung on and in a second was on his back, and not a bit too soon, as then the gale struck us, and the way that heap dissolved partnership was a caution to sinners. My horse was wild with fear and was off-leading, while behind came thirty or forty mammoth tumble-weeds, rolling along like gigantic cannon-balls. I never saw such a sight in my life, and I soon found that I was being chased by hundreds of them. I looked back and saw one jump twenty feet into the air as it hit a rock, and every little prominence sent them up where the wind would catch them and bowl them like foot-balls. I dodged several and at last got out of the squall. I haven’t the slightest doubt that if I had been struck by one of the plants it would have knocked over horse and all—in fact, I heard later of a man that was caught in such a squall and ac tually bowled over by one of them.”—• ' San Francisco Call. Origin of Billiards. Billiards were invented, says a good authority, by a pawnbroker. About the middle of the sixteenth century there was one William Kew, a pawnbroker, who during wet weather was in the hab it of taking down the three balls, and, with the yard measure, pushing them, billiard fashion, from the counter into the stalls. In time the idea of a board with sidepockets suggested itself. A black letter MS. says: “.Master Wil liam Kew did make one board whereby a game is played with three balls, and all the young men were greatly recreated thereat, chiefly tiie young clergymen from I‘awles, hence one of ye strokes was named a Canon, having been by one of ye same clergymen invented. This game is now known by ye name of bill yard, because William or ‘Bill’ Kew did first playe with his yarde measure. The stick is now called a kew or kue.” It is easy to comprehend how “Bill yard” has been modernized into Billiard, and the transformation of “kew” or “kue” into cue is equally apparent. Fire (’nstoms in China. The following extract from a letter from a lady in Pekin, China, written to a friend in Chicago, will interest a good many people: “L ist week there was quite a fire not very far from us, quite an unusual thing I am told, for the build ings arc of brick with tile roofs. Several stores burned, and three men were burned to death. A strange custom in connection with any fire is, that the own er of the building where the fire breaks out is taken to the yarmin (place of pub lic business, police court, etc.) and severely beaten, I suppose the idea being that he must have been careless to have let it happen. In this case the man was hurt at the fire and died from the beat ing. Another strange thing is, that all the stores near, for several days are obliged to sell their goods cheap, out of gratitude that they did not burn down too. Chicarjo Tntcr-Oeean. Much Too AlTible.

"Very well, my dear,” replied the merchant. “There is the money, but. dear me! forty dollars for trimming! Women arc getting worse than ever!” So, breakfast over, and Mr. Rome off for that mysterious region, known as “the i itv," Emma started on her shopping ex pedition. On her way thoughts of her new dress ran through' her mind. She intended to wear it on an occasion which to her seemed very important. Someone was to be present whose opinion she valued —sonic one she herself admired very much. Did he admire her! Thus absorlied, she suddenly found herself some distance beyond her desti nation. There was nothing for it but to walk back, and the way lay through streets filled with miserable houses. The fashionable girl hurried along until, all at once, she found a sort of barricade across the street. The middle object of this barricade was a sewing machine, to which on one side clung a woman, on the other a man. An attendant crowd of residents contemplated this scene with evident interest, and Emma Rome became, perforce, one of their number. “Forty dollars I've paid you on that machine, and now you'll not give me time. I only ask time. I'm an honest woman. I’ll pay you. Man, do you know it's all there is between us and star vation? Let me have it. It's but $lO I owe you.” “You’ve owed that two months.” re plied the man. “Come, let go, missus. 1 don't want to hurt you. I've got to obey orders.” But the w oman did not relinquish her hold. Still clutching the machine, she turned her agonized eyes upon the by standers. “Forty dollars,” she repeated, “and the machine but SSO, nnd he’s taking it. I never failed until Jim broke his leg. and his work stopped, and his wage with it, and I’d doctor’s bill, and al'.” “No, that she didn’t,” cried a voice from the crowd. “And he'd better be off with his cart,” cried a man who had stalked out of the entry of the house near which the crowd had gathered, rolling up his sleeves. “Look here, good people,” explained the man who held the machine. I don’t want to do this. I obey orders, or lose my place. She’d better go to the master, and talk to him—not to me.” “I’ve been,” said the woman. “He's made of stone. I told him he’d starve us. He will. Take it.” And she let go her hold, and covered her eyes with her hands. But in the place of those rough, red fingers, others, dainty and small, and w-ell gloved, came down upon the cover of the machine. Emma Rome had pressed forward, and now spoke. “Stop,” she said. “Will you let this woman keep her machine if I pay you ten dollars?” “Them’s the master’s orders, miss,” re plied the man, “and I’d be glad to do it, too.” Then while the crowd gathered close, and the woman who had told her piteous tale sobbed with joy, Emma drew the sum named from her purse, received in return a receipt, which she gave the poor woman, and experienced for the first time the delight which the performance of an utterly unseltWi act brings with it. Moreover, when the machine had been borne up-stairs, Emma, who had ex changed a few words with its owner, followed her to her miserable room, noted its poverty, heard all the bitter tale. “But I don’t mind anything now, miss,” sobbed the narrator. Now the machine is my own, I don’t mind how I work. And the only great tug is the landlord—four dollars a month for rent.” “As much a month as a yard of that trimming!” thought Emma, with a little pang. And before she turned from the door she had emptied her purse, and had paid three months’ rent in advance. “ Your husband will be well and at work by that time,” she said; and there were no regrets for the lost fringe as she took her way homeward. Nay, she was not even stung to the soul when Madame Farine remarked, with a glance that said volumes. “The black lace from your old grenadine dress I Certainly, since it is to your taste.” The dress, however, was not unbecom ing, despite the refurbished lace, and Emma wore it to the party. And. some how, Arthur Maine found himself more than ever before attracted by it, and as she drove home that night, Emma felt that the instinct which had said to her, "he loves,” had been no false prophet. She had learned two 'essons in a little while. One, that the poor might be clothed and fed from the trimmings of the rich; the other, that extravagance in dress never yet won any man's heart.— Chicago Ledger.
