THE BLUE DOOR. " It is a little perplexing at times," said the Rev. Milo Milner. " Five houses ex- actly alike in five little gardens of precisely the same dimensions, and five umbrella. shaped apple -trees in front. There have aesuredly been times when the similitude has been somewhat embrrrasing." " Paas," said dearnn Philpot*. "01d Squire Simpson, he bolt 'ern.

And Mr. Belt's ,;rocer's bill was left at Mn. Hedgey's, and " Very natural misapprehensions-- very natural, indeed," said Mr. Milner. " 11-e are all liable to make mistakes." That's as true as gospel," said the dea- cnn. " Now you talk about mistake., j remember—" " And l," precipitat -ly interrupted Mr. Milner, who had a wholesome horror of his descon's '',terminable stories, " have been mercifully preserved from any awkward misunderstandings by the fact that the door of the domicile where 1 reside is providen- tially painted blue."

"Speaking about blue, my daughter Arethusa, down in Horsily - " "Pray excuse inc," said the pastor, glans ing at his turnip -shaped silver watch --"but 1 have barely time to keep my appointment with brother Klingenhurg. Really I hal no mdse bow late it was." And he hurried sway, leaving the deacon standing in the middle of the tend, staring after him. Mr. Milner boarded at No. 3, Simpson Terrace. ('There was an terrace, but the squire thought the name sounded sonorous us and pleasant, so he had christened his five little cottager' "Simpson Terrace.") He boarded with Mrs. Chipley and her two daughters, Maud and Marian, who felt it • great dietinotiom to be of any service, however dight, to the pastor. Maud herself gathered fresh flowers for the study table every day ; Marian eat up late nightui to iron and mend table linen, so that the good man might have a clean napkin every day, and to darn hisstooking. so that you could r.ot tell mended places from the whole, and the little widow her- self exhausted every cufn•ry resource to hurnor lou dyspepsia, and to contrive dainty dishes out of the lease possible foun- dation.

He walk ed in with no sort of ceremony. "Fresh paint !" he said to hiautelf, elevat ing his thin nostrils. "If there's anything on the face of the earth I detest, it is fresh paint.

"Then it's 'nine tramp sneaked intbrough the door that 1 left open to dry the pant," howled Joe. smiting his leg And while the Dean fancily were endeav- oring to repair darrmages, the task of house- cleaning went swimmingly on at the ('hipky domicile, only t'vo doors away, the girls and their mother scarcely taking time to sit down and eat their hasty pudding, which, by the way, got badly scorched through Maud's over -devotion to putting the chintz window curtains in the pastor's study. Rut, hasten as they would. the newly - whitewashed walls were scarcely dry, and the furniture not yet rearranged, when dusk descended on the scene and Rev. Milo Mil ner came in. "O)h, take care, Mr. Milner!" exclaimed Maud, " the door --the punt is fresh." Mr. Milner solemnly advanced into the area of the lamplight, and, twisting himself around to get at the skirts of Iia net, eyed them disconsolately. " More paint," said he.

"Rut truth is truth," said Maud. "And while I'm about it," said Mr. Mil- ner, now thoroughly exasperated, "I deem it my duty to remonstrate with yon concerning the extravagant and unwarranted style of diet in which you indulge during my ab- sence!" "i don't know what you mean," said Mrs. ('hIpky, feebly catching her breath. "Hasty pudding and milk can't be called extravagance," hazarded Maud. "Scorched .t that," murmured Marian.

The oldest boy, in his teens, concludes he would start out for himself Fwklly he brought up in New York city and soon spent all the money the old man had given him. Then he wrote his father this kind of appeal "Dt.ca FATHER, I am sick and lonely, without one single cent. Send me some money quick. Vona Som, Jox'."
