Never was s quiet and orderly usehold tra,neforrned iso oath/only into 0. er garden, or a happy man tuned into oh a completely miserable one. He had ver realized before how entirely his lighters lied shielded him from all the ()don of life. Now that they had not ly ceased to protect him, but had them. lime become a source of trouble to him,he gen to understand how great the blessing as whioli he had enjoyed and to eiglic for e happy days before his girls had come der the influence of his neighbor. " Y on don't look happy," Mrs. West. acott had remarked to him one morning. You are pale and a little off color, You ould come with me for a tendrale spin on the tandem." "1 am troubled about my girls." They ere walking up and down in the gardeu. rom time to time there sounded from the ouse behind them the long, ead wail of a renoh horn, "That iB Ida," said he. "She has ken to practising on that dreadfulinstru. ent in the intervals of her chemistry. nd Clara is quite as bad. I deolare, it is etting quite unindurable." "Ab, dootor, doctor 1" she cried, shaking er forefinger, with a gleam of her white eeth. "You muat live up to your prinoi- les-you Must give your daughters the ame liberty as you advocate for other omen." " Liberty, madam, certainly 1 But this pproaolies to license." "The same law for all, my friend." he tapped Min reprovingly on the arm ith her sunshade. " When you were wenty your father, did not, I presume, bjeot to your learning chemistry or play. ng a musical instrumeut. You would have hought it tyranny if he had." "But there is such a sudden change in hem both." " es, I have noticed that they have een very enthusiastic lately in the ause of liberty: Of all my diseiples I hink that they promise bo be the meat evoted and oonsistent, which is the more atural since their father is one of our oat trusted oham pions. " The doctor gave a twitch of impatience. seem to have lost all 'authority," he ried. "No, no my dear friend. They are a itttle exuberant at having broken the rammels of custom. That is all." "You cannot think what I have had to ut up with, madam. It has been a dread- ul experience. Last night, after I had xtanguished the candle in my bedroom,. I laced my foot upon something smooth nd hard, which scuttled from under me. magine my horror 1 I lighted the gas nd mime upon a well -grown tortoise which litra has thought fit to introduce into the ouse. I call it .a filthy custom to have uch pets." Mrs. Westmaoott dropped him a little ourtesy. "Thaiik you sire" said she, "That is a nice little side hit at my poor liza." "1 give you my word that I had forgot - en about her," cried ehe doctor, flushing. One such pet may no doubt be endured, ut two are more than I can bear.

For a moment the conspireoy WAS on the poine of collapsing.

"1 feel quite the Gaiety girl 1" oho cried. "How delicious it mat be to be upon the stage ! You can't think how nice We dress is, papa.. One feels so free in it. And isn't Clara churning ?" "Go to your room this instant and take it off I" thundered the dotter. " I eall it highly Improner, and no daughter of mine shall wear it." " Peps I Improper I Why, it is the exact model of Mrs. Westmacott's." " I say it is improper, And yours alEso, Clara I Your conduct is really outrageous, Vol: drive me out of the house.

We seized his hat, Plain/nod the dining - room door, and a few minutes later they heard tlie orash of the big front gate. "Victory Clara. victory 1" cried Ida still-nairouetting around the furniture. "Did you hear what he said? Petnicious influences ? Don't youeunderstand, Clara? Why do you sit there no pale and glum? Why don't you get up and dance ?" "011, I shall be so glad when it is over, Ida. I do hate to give him pain. Surely he has learned now that it is very unpleas- ant to apend one's life with reformers." " He has almost learned it, Clara. Just one more little lesson. We must not risk all at this last moment." "What would you do, Ida? Oh, don't do anything too dreadful! I feel that we have gone too far already." "Oh, all will come right," „said the widow, reassuringly. "And Clara is as bad -Clara who used o be so good and sweet -the very image f her poor mother. She insists upon hie preposterous scheme et being a pilot, and will talk of nothing but re- volving lights and hidden rooks and odes of signals, and non -sense of the kind." "Bat why preposterous ?" asked Ms ompanion. " What nobler occupation an there be than that of stimulating commerce and aiding the mariner to steer safely into port?.I should think your aughter admirably adapted for.. suoh duties." "Then I must beg to.differ from you, madame." "Stilt, you are inconsistent." "Excuse me madam. I do not see the atter in the same light. And I should e obliged to you if you would use your tifluenoe with my daughter to dissuade er." " You wish to make me inconsietent, too ?" " Then you refuse?" "1 am afraid that I cannot interfere." The doctor was very angry. "Very well, madam," said he. " that calm I clan only say that 1 have the honor to wish you a very good -morning." He raised his bread straw hat and strode away up the gcavel path, while the widow looked after him with twinkling eyee. She was sur- prieed herself to find that she liked the doctor better the more masculine and ag- gressive he beeame. It was unreasonable, and against ell principle, and yet 80 it was, and no argument could end the matter, Very hot and angry, the dootor retired into hie room and eat down to read his paper. -- Ida had retired, and the dis• tent wails of the bugle showed that she was upstairs in her boadoir. Clara sat oppoeite to him with her exasper- ating charts and her blue book. The doctor glanced. at her, mid his eyes remained fixed in astonishment upon the front of her skirt. "My deer Clara," he cried, "you have torn your skirt," Its daughter laughed and smoothed out her frock. To his horror he saw the red plush of the *Their where the dreas ought to have been. "It is all torn I" he cried. "Whet have you done ?" "My dear papa," 'said she, "what do you know about the mysteries of ladies' dress? This is a divided eltirt." Theta he saw that it wee indeed so ar. ranged, and that his daughter was clad in a sort of loose, extremely long !wicker - bookers. • "It will be to cionvenient for my sea. hoote," she explained:. Her father shook hie head sadly. "Your, " Oh, we can no it very nicely. You see, we are both engaged, and that makes it very easy. Harold will do what you ask him, espeoially as you have told him the reason why, and my Charles will do if without even wanting to know the reason. Now you know what Mrs. Westrifecott thinks about the reserve of young ladies. Mere prudery affectation, and a retie of the dark ages of of zeanna. Those were her words were they not 1" "What then ?" "Well, now we must put it in practice. We are reducing all her other views to practice, and we niust not shirk this one,' "But what would you do? Oh, do't look so wicked, Ida I You look like some evil little fairy, with your golden hair and dancing nuschlevioue eyes. I know that you are going to propoae something dread- ful." "We must give a little supper to -night." "We ? A tapper ?" “Why nob? Young gentlemen give suppers. Why not young ladies ?" "But whom shall we invite ?" - "Why, Harold and Charles of course." "And the Admiral and Mrs. Hay Den- ver ?" "Oh, no; that would be very old fashion. ed. We must keep up with the times Clara." "But what can we give them for supper ?" "Oh.something with a nice,fast,rollicking late -at -night kind of flavor to it. Let me see I Champagne, of course, and oysters. Oysters will do. In the novels all the naughty people take champagne and oysters. Besides they won't need any cooking. How is your pookee money, Clara ?" "I have three pounds." "And I have one. Four pounds. I have no idea how much champagne costs. Have you ?" "Not the slightest." "How many oysters does a man eat ?" 31 I can't imagine." "1'n write and ask Charters. No, I won't. I'll ask Jane. Ring for her, Clara. She has been a cook, and is sure to know." Jane, on being orosiequestioned, refused to commit herself, beyond the statement that it depended upon the gentleman, and also upon the oysters. The united experi- ence of the kitchen however, testified that three dozen was a lair provision. "Then we shall have eight dozen alto- gether," said Ida, jotting down all her requirements upon a sheet of paper. "And Iwo pints of champagne. And some brown bread, and vinegar, and pepper. That'a all, I think. It is not ao very difficult to give a supper after all, is it, Clara ?" "I don't like it, Ida. It seemo to me to be so very indelicate." "But it is needed to clinch the mat- ter. No, there is no drawing back now, Clara, or we shall ruin everything. Papa is sure to comeback by the 9:45. He will reach the door at ten. We must have everything ready for him. Now just sit down at once, and ask Harold to come at nine o'clock, and I shall do the same to Charles." The two invitations were dispatched, received and accepted. Harold was already a confidant, and he understand that this was some further development of the plot. As to Charles, he was so accustomed to feminine eccentricity, in the person of his aunt, that, the only thing which could surprime him would be a rigid observance of etiquette. At nine o'clock they entered the dinieg-room of number two, to find the master of the house absent, a red -shaded lamp, a snowy cloth, a pleas- ant little feast, and the two whom they would have chosen, as their companions. A merrier party never met, and the house rang with their laughter and their chatter, "It is .three minutes to ten," cried Clara, suddenly, glancing at the clock. "Good gracious 1 So it is I Now for our little tablettu 1" Ida pushed the cham- pagne bottles obtrusively forward in the direction of the 'door, and eoattered oyster shells over the cloth, *"}lave you your pipe, Charles 1" "My pipe I Yea." "Then please smoke it. Now don't argue about it, but do it, for you will ruin the effeot otherwise." The men drew out a red °age, and ex - treated a great yellow meereohaum, out of which a moment later, he was puffing thick wreaths of smoke. Herold had lighted a algae, and both the girls had cigarettes. "That looks very Mee and emancipaited," said Ida, glemoing round. "Now I Anil Ile on this mote.

The dootor had walked home from the station in a peaceable and relenting frame of mind, feeling that,. perhaps, he had said too muoli in the morning, that his daughters bed tor years been models in every wev, and that, if there had been any ohauge of late, le was, as they said themselves, on eccourit of their anxiety to follow his advice and to imitate Mrs. Westmecott. He could see olearly enough now that that advice was unwise and that a world peopled with Mrs, Wes finacott's woald not be a happy or a soothing one, It was be WI10 was hirapelf to blame, and he was grieved by the thought that perhaps his hoe words'had troubled and saddened his two girls. This fear, however, was soon disaipated. As he entered hie hall he heard the voice of lda uplifted in a rolliojeing ditty, and a very strong smell of tobacco was borne to his nostrils. He threw (men the dining - room door and stood aghast at the scene whieh met his eyes. The room was full of the blue wreaths of smoke, and the lamp -light shone through the thin haze upon gold -topped bottles, plates, napkins and e litter a oyster shells and oigarettee. Ide flualied and excited, WaS reclining upon the settee, a wine -glass at her elbow, and a eigarette between her fingers, while Charles Weatmaoott sat beside her, with his arm thrown over the head of the sofa, with the suggestion of a caress, On the other side of the room Clara was lounging in an arm-ohair, 'with Harold beside her, both amoging, and both with wine -glasses beside them. The doctor stood speechless in the doorway, staring at the Bacohanalian scene, " Come in, pupa I Do I" cried Ida. Won't you have a glass of champagne ?" "Pray excuse me, " maid her tether, coldly. "1 feel thatI am intruding. I did not know that you were entertaining. Perhaps you will kindly let me know when you have finished, You will find me in my study." He ignored the two young men completely,ancl, closing the door, retired, deeply hurt and mortified, to his room. A quarter of an hour afterwards he heard the door slam, and Ms two daughters came to 8.11110U1180 that the guests we -e tone. " Gueets, ! Whose guests," he cried, angrily. "What is the meaning of this exhibition?" "We have been giving a little supper peps. They were our guests." "Oh, indeed 3" The doctor laughed sarcastically. "You think it right, then, to entertain young bachelors late at night, to smoke and drink with them, to -Oh, that I should ever have lived to blush for my own daughters ! I thank God that your clear mother never saw the day I" "Dearest papa 1" oried Clara, throwing her arms about him. "Do not be angry with us. If you understood all you would see that there is no harm in it. "No harm, miss! Who is the best judge of this?" " Mrs. Westmaoott," siggested Ida, slyly, The -doctor sprang from his chair. "Con- found Mrs. Westmacott 1" he cried, strik- ing frenziedly into the air with his hands. "Am I to hear of nothing but this woman? Is she to confront me at every turn? will endure it no longer I" "But it was your wish papa." "Then I will tell you now what my second and wiser wish is, and We shall see if you will obey it as you have the first." "Of course we will, papa." "Then my wish is that you should for- geb those odious notions which you have imbibed, that you should dress and act as you used to do betore ever you saw this woman and that, in future, you confine sivair intercourse with her to such civilities as are necessary between neighbors." "We are to give tin Mrs. Weatmacott 3" "Or give up me." - • "Oh, dear, dad ! how can you say any- thing so cruel ?" cried Ida, burrowing her towsy golden hair into her father's shirt front, while Clara pressed her cheek against Ms whisker. "Of course we shall give her up, if you prefer it." "Of course we shall, papa." The doctor patted the two caressing heads. "These are my own, two girls again !" he cried. "It has been my fault as much as yours. I have been astray, and you have followed me in my error. :Et was only by seeing your mistake that I have become conscious of ray own. Let us set it aside, and neither say nor think anything more about it." "Five thousand 1" exclaimed the Admiral, reekoning it in his own mind, "Lemtne see 1 That's twentpare pounds OoMinitlaion.

"Then it's all off P' she cried. "You need not carry out that investment." "Very well, ma'am." They walked on together side by side,she brooding over aorne thought of her own,and he a little crossed and diaappointed at her caprice and the lost commission for Har- old, "I tell you what, Admiral," she exclaim- ed, suddenly. "11.1 were you I should get your boy out of this 'partnership." "But why, madam ?" "Because he ia tied to one of the deepest, slyest foxes in the whole oity of London." "Jeremiah Pearson, ? What can you know of hiro ? Ile bears a good name." "No one in thio world knows Jeremiah Pearson as I know him, Admiral. I warn you becatiee I have a friendly feeling both for you and for your son. The man is a rogue, and you had better avoid him." "But these are only words, ma'am. Do you tell me that you know him better than the brokers and jobbdrs in the city 3" "Man," cried Mrs. West:nacott, " will you allow that I know him when I tell you that my maiden name was Ada Pearson'and that Jeremiah is my only brother ?" The Admiral whistled. "Whew!" cried he. "Now that I think of it, there is a likeness." (To BE OONTINTED.) MIRACLE OF THE WOODEN SWORD. --- Frederick the Great Was outwitted by It and It Saved a Soldier's Lite. Frederick the Great used sometimes to visit his soldiers incognito that he might better know how they conductedthemselves. On one of these occeetions he came across a soldier who had been drinking more than waa good for him. He talked with hint and they became very friendly. At last he said : "How do you get money to spend on drink? I get the same pay that you do, but I don't feel able to buy liquor with it. Tell me how you manage to get enough td have such a good time with." "You seem to be a good-natured (Map," said the soldier, "and I don't see why I shouldn't tell yon. Now,to-day I am going to entertain an old friend. As 3. ou say, it isn't possible to do this on the pay we get. SoI raise a little money on the outside." "But how ?" persisted the Emperor. "Why, I pawn some things that I can do without for a few days," replied the other. "Then I live pretty close for a few days and save enough to redeem them with. To -day when I wanted to be nice to this olcl friend, I pawned the Made of my sword. We won't be reviewed for some clays and I will get it back before there will be any chance to discover that 1 have parted with it." Frederick expressed. Ms admiration at the clever economy of the soldier and soon after left him. The following day the troops received an unexpected order to present themselves for a dress parade. The Emperor discovering the soldier of the day before, made him leave the ranks with the soldier who was at his right Then he commanded him to divest the other of his uniform, and when he had done this he said to the soldier whom he wanted to catch : "Now draw your sword and cut off the head of this wretch 1" The soldier entreated Frederick not to enforce such a command, saying that be would make his own life intolerable if he were to kill a worthy man with whom he had. served for over fteen years. The Emperor remained inflexible to all hie en- treaties and protestations. Finally when the soldier saw that he would have to draw his sword he exclaimed: "Well, sire, since I cannot induce yon to release me from this painful order I will pray God to work a miracle for me and to change my sword into wood." He said this with an air of the deepest piety and then manifested the utmost joy as he drew his sword and eaw that it was, in truth, wood and not steel. Hie prayer had been heard. Frederick wee so amazed by this clever way of getting out of the trap that he had laid for him that be par- doned him for his offense and presented him with a purse of gold. On one occasion Frederick the Great was visiting the extreme outposts of his army. hile making his rounds he perceived a soldier slip past the line the sentinel was guarding. His Majesty brought him to halt and asked him where he Was going. "Well, to tell the truth," said the eoldier with an air of despair, "your Majesty has been Po unlucky in your enterprises that I was going to desert.' "Right," said the Emperor. "But wait a week longer before you do it. If fortune isn't any better to me in that time I'll desert with you." CHAPTER X1. A BLOT 113,031 Tan Bum So, by the cleverness of two girls a dark cloud was thinned away and turned into sunshine. Over one of them, alas, another cloud was gathering, which could not be so easily dispersed. Of these three house- holds which fate had thrown together, two had already been united by ties of love. It was destined, however, that a bond of another sort should connect the Westmacotte with the Hay Denvere. Between the Admiral and the widow a very cordial feeling had existed since the day when the old seaman had hauled down his flag and changed hie opinions, granting to the yachtswoman all that he had refined to the reformer. His own frank aud down.' right nature respected thedsame qualities in his neighbor, end a friendship sprang up between them which was more like that which exists between two men rounded upon esteem arid a community of tastes. "By the way, Admiral," said Mrs. Westrnacott one morning as they walked together down to the station, "1 under- stand that this boy of yours hi the intervals of paying his devotion to Miss Walker is doing something upon 'Change." "Yes, ma'am ; and there is no man of his age who is doing so well. He's drawing ahead, 1 can tell you; ma'am. Some or those that started with him are hull down astern now. He touched his five hundred last year, and before he's thirty he'll be making the four figures." "The reason I asked Is that I have email investments to make myself from timo to time, and my present broker is a earned. I should be very glad to do it through your son." "Itis very kind of you, ma'em. His partner is away CM a holiday, and Harold would like to pueh on e„,bit and show what he can do. You know the r poop isn't big enough to hold the lieutenant when the skipper's on shore," • "I suppose he charges the usual half per cent 1" " Don' b know, I'm sure, ma'am.
