"A SUiSCRIPTION?„ said Dr. Angell, !, a frank face all smiles, "pray wi. : in, ladies, I aro delighted that my poor, lathe bachelor'. den of an offiee is so highly honored ' Yee, as I often say, charity is one of the few ---hreuries in which we straggling pro- _ fessional men can afford to indulge. Pray be seated by the window, Mia Wallis—take the sofa, Mrs. Est- eoart i -- It was all very well foe Dr. Angell eril ii a poor,�I the bache- lor's den." Bot no one else would flaws reeitltred to affix any such no, sose.la/lire to it The Boor wgis • covered wfth a tiny patterned Persian carpet ; the . windows were draped with Japanese chintz, all gleaming with' golden bees and butterflies on a ground of crimson ; the bookcase and secretary of inlaid walunt, were crest, ed with albaster atatuttes and expen- sive bronze triukete, and a painted china jardiniere near the sunshine was filled with freshly cut hot -house roses and ferns. Lucy Estcourt look. ed around with glistening eyes ; she liked pretty things and the exquisite- ly ordered place gratified her senses as one of Palmer's marbles or Ghurch's gout bsve drone, And Blanche Wallis secretly vowed within herself to have just such a " love of a jardiniere " in her own boudoir before she was twenty-four hours older. " Yes," said Mrs. Estcourt, w ho was the spokeswoman, a young widow. " We are collecting funds for a home for Indigent Widows Squire Allan has promised us ilia old store house by the pine glen, free of all neat or charge and our idea is now to furnish it and engage a .iatron • without loss of time. Only think of how much good we can 5 acciiiiVITAI it tr r natlllsids: " iiiid fa—nig Dr. Angell, with kindling eyes. " Yes," said the pretty widow. ad- justing the links of her jet chain. "I think it la a capital plan myself .' And if you gentlemen will help us with a little ready money, we ladies will un- dertake to furnish linen, china and housekeeping wares !" Dr. Angell smiled. " Dear ladles," said he, " I shall not attempt to disguise from you the fact that I am poor ! But, as I said before, charity is the 'one extrava ganoe in which I delight to delight myself. Pray allow me g" And taking a ten dollar bill from one of the drawers of the inlaid lecre- tairie be laid it in Mrs. E.toourt's hand. " I only wish it were more," said he, with a graceful deprecatory mo- tion, as she made haste to thank him. " bat 1 hope you will accept it in the spirit in which it is given." " Oh, Doctor," smiled the eonng widow, " if every gentlemen in Silver Falls will Rive me lie much we shall be able to open the home at once !" And as the two ladies walked away their conyersat on naturally turned on the gentleman whose elegant galls sanctum they had just kilt. " There, Lucy," raid Mus Wallis, triumphantly, " what did i tell you 1 Don't he look exactly like papa's pic- ture iatare of St John: with that noble foreb.sad and the wavy. brown hair brushed so artlaticafy away from it r "Yes," said Mn. Eotr+onrt ; "and bow beautifully he expressed himself about the lar.ry of giving ! I do like a man to use esiect language instead Of plunging into all manner of slang, hke poor cousin Jack !" " And his velvet smoking -cap tae- eelleel with Reid." added Blanche, en- thusiastically.

But, for all that, the pretty widow thought a good deal about Dr. Angell and his deep -blue eyes and St John forebead._;s_sbe sat at her needlework that afternoca. " Jack," she said to the much en- during cousin who had been hopeless- ly in love with her ever since she was a school girl in a sun -bonnet and bronzed kid boots," why don't you ask Dr. Angell to join your boating club?" " Because he's such a confounded humbug !" said Jack Warren,anipping away at the bit of paper with the widow's scissors. " Do put those scissors down,Jeck!" said Lacy, a little impatiently. " A —humbug ' Dr. Angell 1" " A menhir deed -beat," nodded Jack. "Good-lookj,ng, but shallae— imo bat false." "Jack !" " Weil, it's trae,'reaiid Mr. Warren, emphatically. ' HOW do you know r .t ._,thi. inflow's look4_to be sure." "Naar, Jack," said Mee. Ertroourt, dashing up to the roots of her golden hair, " that is all jealoosy ' Nothing in the world but jealousy.'-._ "Jme►--ws-you ckootte to-itivelt said Jack, serenely. " It don't matter a pin to me, either wry. Only mark my words Lucy, the Silver Fall., people will find him out after a while." " Find him out r " Exactly," nodded Jack. " He's running old Dr. Jennings out of pole - tine now. People prefer has soft voice and wavy yellow hair to the old fel- low's brusque ways and rusty wig. But there'll be an end to his popularity one of these days." -Ele gave me .a ten -dollar -bill for the Indigent Widows' Home !" cried Mrs. Estcourt, indignantly. Jack only whistled. " He's a hum- bug, for all that," said he. Poor Jack ' He was no reader of feminine character, else he would never have fanned the flame of his pretty cousin's evanescent fancy with the gales of opposition. He would have agreed with her, in toto ; he would have loaded the young doctor with praises and echoed every word of commendation that she spoke. But Jack Warren, h+►Sl.,_aL aya.._binndered. tairougl the world and he was true to his character in this instance. " His frumy forehead and yellow hair and soft voice don't make Angel Gabriel of Him," said Jack : "and so you'll find out." And Lucy Estcourt was so nettled that she rose up and whisked out of the room, work basket and all. It was the afternoon of the next day that the took it into her capri= cious little head to visit a favorite old pensioneer : an ancient., toothless crone, who lived in a tenement house in the very dingiest part of the town of Silver Falls, and who was destined to occupy one of the rooms of the Home for Indigent Widows, when that beatific vision became a cer- tainty. " Well, M*. Midgeston, and how are you 1" said Mrs. Estcourt, rustl- ing softly into the room, a radiant ap- parition of smiles and golden hair and attar roses. Mrs. Midgeton dropped her knit- ting and turned a man -like pair of silver spectacles toward the new- " Worried, Mrs. Midgeteonl" "with the scolding, Cleary, and the confusion next door, with s partition between, decry, as is no thicker thew a sheet of paper. Listen yourself, sweetheart, and you'll hear." Lucy F,dtoonrt listened and became aware of a vague confusion of voices. " Bat what to it, Mrs. Midgetaon !" said she, half alarmed. " it's poor Liafe Curry, dear, u is dying sit oonanmptioo.

At that moment Lucy Estcourt opened the door of Mrs. Curry's apartment and stood there like a beautiful avenging angel " Gartman," said she to the sympa- thetic Irishman who stood vacillating in the middle of the room, " put the machine back into ita place.
