Still vainly trying to solve the enigme, Evan made a hurried toilet, and finally, with his head still aching as if it would split, -and looking a wreck of yesterday's greatness, he leftthe room, and. crept softly down stairs. The evidences of wealth and luxury on every side, so un- like his own humble .belongings, quite awed him, and having found. his way down, he would not venture into.any of the sitting -rooms, but modestly took his seat on a chair in the hall, and waited for the development of events. Here he was found after a few moments by Mr. Owen Jones, who wished him a friendly good morning. "I've seen you. somewhere, I know, Sir," said Evan '• "but I can't for the life of me tell wbere." t "Can't yOu ?" said his host, smiling. "We were both at the Welsh dinner .last night, and one of us took a little too much." A light suddenly flashed across Evan's mind. "I remember now, Sir; I'm afraid I was very rude to you." "Well, you were a little plain-spoken, and I gave you my card, and told you if you wished to apologize yott would know where to find me. I must say I didn't expect you wonld have come quite so soon, thOugla. The fact is, you were brought here by the mistake of a cab- man, viha supposed my card. was your own." "I'm sure I humbly beg your pardon, Sir," said pOor Evan, completely crest- falen. "I can't think how I came so to disgrace myself; but to tell you the troth, Sir, I'd had to pinch a -bit to buy my 'ticket, and all day yesterday I had- n't tasted. bit or sup since breakfast, and when it came to clinner-time I was that faint and. weak that the very first.glass seemed to set my head all -swimming like. Pc1 let it go too long, Sir, that's what it was. I humbly ask your par- don, I'm sure, for the trouble I've caus- ed, and. I thank you kindly for giving me a night's shelter. I feel I don't de- serve yonr kindness, Sir; but In grate- ful, I assure you." A.nd i ih tears in his eyes, Evan moved. humbly to the hall door to de- part. "No, no," said 'Mr. Owen Jones; "you mustn't thine of going without your breakfast. We are all Welsh here; and if a brother Welshman &es take a glass too much on St. David's Day, we know how to make allowances for him. Come, step in here. We have had break- fast an hour ago_; bat Mrs: Jones is waiting to give you. yours." Looking very shamefaced and repent- ant, Evan Jones followed his namesake into the breakfast parlor, where Mrs. Jones, who had heard his humble con- fession and apology, gave him a kindly greeting, and he was soon seated. before a snowy table -cloth, and, as.well as his headache would let him,- enjoying a plenteous repast. During the meal his entertainers quietly drew him out, and were speedily behind the scenes at to his daily life and his hard struggles to keep the wolf from the door; and. when he filially took his leave a well-filled basket was waiting for him in the hall to take home as a present to the chilchen. 'Nor was this by any means the last which found its way to the same quarter, sent. by the same friendly hands; and I am sorry to say that of all days, that held in the highest veneration by the little Joneses is "the day when papa got so dreadfully tipsy at the Welsh din- ner. * < * I feel that there mu-st be a moral to this story somewhere, but I can't quite see where it lies. You can't call it ex- actly a temperance story, because, you observe, Evan Jones got a good niglat's lodging and made a couple of kind friends 'by getting drunk—which is not poetical justice by any means. After much anxione consideration, the only safe moral I can see is; that a married lady shciulcl never order any gentleman,. however tipsy, to be put into her own bed without making quite sure, in the first place, that he is the gentleman who rightfully belongs to hen—London Society.
