"1 know, little Ilse. It is the story
of the lost doll
And Line drew the young girl toward
her, and tenderly stroked her dark hair.
"Do- you still remember that Christmas
eve, child?"
Ilse noodecl silently, hiding her face
on Line's shoulder. The latter must
certeiniy have practised some witch-
craft, for not forty-eight hours after,
"somebody " rang our door -bell ; it was
a very different sound from usual—at
first faint, so that the note was feeble
and timid., then impatient, almost im-
perious.
Whoever understands the language of
bells might have thought, as I did, that
the agent had sent us word that we had
drawn the great prize in a lottery. But
when I arrived the door had already
been opened, and in the hall stood Line
fooking at her own door.
"May I come into your room a little
while?"she asked. " Somebody is in
mine with Ilse."
"Indeed. Who is it ?"
" Oh, you shall soon hear I"
She drew me into my room with her,
sat down by the window, and did not
utter a word, until at last the " some-
body " appeared, leading by the hand
the pale young girl, whose face was
bright with joy.
Women certainly have the gift of
match -making !
"Line, where did you get that fellow?
Countess, do you really mean to be plain

It was -event*, and they were both in
the greatest possible hurry. Ernest
bought the old house, and fitted it up
into a pretty little neat for his young
wife. " Stylish," of course; on that
point the young architect is a little—
pardon me. It really looks very pretty,
and it is cosy and pleasant to sit in the
wainscotted rooms, by the green Dutch -
tile stove, while the wind rattles the
panes, and the old elm trees rustle out-
side,

-
children about a little girl that could
not he comforted for the loss of her old
doll, though she received a new and far
handsomer one. Ilse always laughs
merrily, and the children chime in.
Hark ! There they are! " Ceme in,
the tree will be ready directly."
"The children must say their prayer
now," the young mother Bays gravely,
and, the boy and the little girl, who is
just learning to talk, clasp' their tiny
hands and repeat :
" The child that's born to -day,
Christ Jeans, Saviour dear,
Keep us from error's way,
Guide; thou our hearts while here."
"Amen, children."
Then the bell on the other side of the
hall rings. They run eagerly forward,
but Ilse leans on my arm.
" Do you =remember," she asks, " six
years ago, when He gefided my heart
also into the right path ?"
"Yes, my little daughter. The
shrill peal of the belI is yet ringing in
my ears.
Again the words died on my lips ; the
bell was jerked so hurriedly.
Go in, children, come soon ; but
didu't I say so ? .At the very beginning,
too? Even on Christmas eve 'we doc-
tors have no rest !"
" What is it ?".
" What ? Widow Merker's son, the -
soldier, has arrived on leave of absence.
Will it do the sick „woman any harm if

How a Man Recovered
Wagofi From a Smart
Judge.
In the village of W— lived a man w o
had been judge of the county, and w s
known all over it by the name of Jud,e
L—. He kept a store and saw mill, a d
was always sure to have the best of a
bargain on his side, by which means e
had gained an ample competency, a d
some did not hesitate to call him "t
biggest rascal in the world." He w
conceited withal, and used to delight
brag of his business capacity whenev
anyone was near to lieten. One rai
day, as quite a number were sea
around the stove in the store, he bega
as usual; to tell his great bargains, a
at last wound up with the expressio
" Nobody has ever cheated me, nor th
can't neither."
"Judge," said an old man °Utile co
pany, "I've cheated you inor'n you ever
did me."
"How so," asked the judge.
" If you'll promise you wont go to 1
about it, nor do nothing, tell, or e se
I won't ; you are too much of a 1 w
character for nee."
"Let's hear ! let's hear !" cried h if
a dozen voices.
"I'll promise," said the judge, "
treat you in the bargain."
" Well, do you remember that wa,
you robbed me out of ?"
" I never robbed you out of any w
on" exclaimed the judge, " I only
the best of a bargain."
" Well, I made up my mind to hay
back and—"
" You never did," interrupted
cute judge.
" Well, you see, judge, I sold you
day a very nice pine log, and bargai
with You for a lot more. Well, t
log I stole off your pile, down by -s
mill, the night before, and the next
I sold it to you. The next night I di
it back home, and sold it to you
next day ; and so I kept on until
bought your own log from me twe
seven times."
That is false !" exclaimed -the
furiated judge, running to his bo
and examining his log accounts; "
never sold us 27 logs of the same m
uremenis. 7 /.
" I know it," said the vendor in I
"by drawing it back and forth the e
wore off until it was only 10 feet lon
just 14 shorter than it was the first t:
I brought it—and when it got so sho
drew it home again, and worked it
into shingles, and then I conclud
had got my wagon back and sto
had
away in my pocket -book."
The exclamation of the judge
drowned in the shouts of the bystand
and the log -drawer found the door w
out the promised treat. And to s

if he ever was mad.
Saved by Kindness.
We find the following story in the col -
um of the Susquehanna Transcript
" Some 10 or 12 years ago there Was
employed in the office of the late S S.
Merrill, the General Manager of th St.
Paul Railroad Company, a cler in
whom complete confidence was repo ed.
-fie was intrusted with many of the cor-
poration's secrets, and given the h nd-
ling of funds in large amounts. U for-
tunately, the young man began so ing
his wild oats, found his salary ins ffi-
cient to support his extravagance, and
frequently abstracted small amo tits
from the railway -company's fund to
meet s the deficiency. These amo nts
gradually increased in size until the
young man, realizing the positio he
for
o a
The
Mr.
Atlantic were cabled, and the young
man's arrest ordered. This was suc-
cessfully accoinplished, the clerk was
returned to America and transferred to
the custody of the railway company's
agent. To that official a fall confes-
sion was made,• and, finding himself com-
pletely in the compeny'e power, the
young mau calmly contemplated his
fate, expecting nothing leas than a state -
'prison sentence.
" He was quietly taken before Mr.
Merrill, who' -to his complete surprise,
approached him 'pleasantly, took him
warmly by the hand, and said : . Well,
back again, I ,see. Sorry you stayed
away so long, as we needed you. Had a
good time though, I hope. Now,
G—, your desk is just as you left it.
No one has disturbed a paper, and you
can get to work at once. Here, look
over these accounts, and see that they
are properly checked.'
4! The young man, dumbfounded at
thi reception, as in fact was the special
agent, burst into tears, and could not
fully realized the situation, until Mr.
Merrill again broke in with : Come,
what are you doing there ? Get into
that chair as quick as you can and check
those accounts. And, by the way, I
don't want to hear a word regarding cer-
tain events of recent date, which you
perhaps know of.'
" The young Irian did go to work, be-
gan a new lifeeattended to his duties as
he never •had before, advanced himself
in rank as a railway employe, made good
to the company the amount he had
stolen, and several years later left the
company with as good a letter of recom-
mendation as any man ever received.
He, to -day, occupies a prominent po-
sition with one of the leading railways
of the country, and for it thanks his old
employer, S. S. Merrill."
Well Met.
A man of middle age entered the
office of an evening paper yesterday to
seek employment.
"What can you do ?" inquired the
city editor. -
" Write leading articles."
" Next room, please," and the ,city
man resumed work on a pile of copy.
"What can you do ?"asked the editor-
in-chief.
" Write leading editorial articles."
" Did you ever work on a newspaper
before ?"
," No," said the applicant contempt-
uously, 'hut sure I'm reading 'em eince
I was the height of your knee !"

The Irishman and Polly.
A young Irishman visited Rome,, and
there met a friend and fellow -country
mau who was pursuing the avocation of
butcher. The butcher acted as guide ;
and this is a part of Pat's story of sight-
seeing, as told to his sweet -heart on his
return :
" The most wonderful thing I saw in
Rome Was a shtone man."
"A• shtone man !" ejaculated Mary,
",Yes," replied Pat ; "and they call-
ed him the Polly Beleedere. As we
were looking at the -ehtone man, say
the butcher to me, says he : Pat, you
and the Polly Belvedere are very much
aloike.' And be that, we measured.
I was broader than him in the fut, but
he was higher than me in the inshtep.
I was larger than hirn around the ankle,
but he had me in the calf of the leg.
My knee was larger than his, but he
wasbetter than me in the thigh. My
belt was twice as- large around as his
bat his brist was twice as large around
.as mine. Then, •again, my neck was
much larger than his but his head will
much larger than mine. But, as
butcher said, on the general averag
we were just 'about the same thing."

Men Who Prefer to Starve'
It is, often said that hundreds of ellen
walk the streets of New York seeking
work and unable to find it. The most
Prominent broker in town said the other
night that this was entirely untrue.
Bks " I can give every man work," he said,
°u " though it may not be the kind he de -
94" sires or his fitted for. I have dozens of
restaurants and hotels to supply, and
; there are always some vacancies. This
ds
morning's papers announced the sui-
cides of three men who.became desper-
ate because they could not get work.
If they had been willing to take the first
thing that carne along they'd have been
all right. No man need starve."
"How low do wages run ?"
"I sent three men to work as porters
to -day for $2 a week, including luncheon.
You stare. Of course $2 is nothing to
us, but the man who won't work for
that much and six square meals a week
will have to struggle in New York. No
matter how small the wages, you can al-
ways get men to accept them ; but you
cannot always get a man who has held a
high position to accept, a lower one ;
they will starve to death first. I mean
this literally ; they will undergo the
awful horrors of starvation before they
will throw away their pride. It is the
ruling spirit, you know. The other day
the doctors told Dewey, the big Wall
street operator, that he had only a few
hours to live. Ile called for his broker
at once, and arranged for selling out his
stock. Can you imagine a man thinking
of the stock market when on the verge
of death ? Well, the same principles ap-
ly to paupers: they starve to death at
Mines before they N*, ill consent to com-
pete with the laboring man."—Blakely

" Bring me, let me see, bring me a
cranberry pie, a glass of milk, and a
boiled apple dumpling."
" Anything more ?'
dal " Oh, yes ; let me have sornh cocoanut
sti- cakes. Nothing more."
I heard this dialogue the otherda nf in
a very well-known cafe at the luuching
hour. When I turned my head, to see
who had ordered this very remarkable
luncheon, who do you suppoee I saw ?
Some giddy girl with an unfailing appe.
tite for sweets in - unwholesome quanti-
ties ? Some reckless boy without a par -I
ticle of respect for his stomach ? Some
sentimental young creature who believed
in sweets to the sweet ? Or do you sup+
pose that it was a lunatic just escaped
from Longview?
It was the principal of an intertnedi-
ate school up town. Think of it ! An
that man lectures his pupils, or should
lecture them, on what to do to keep
well, what is wholesome and unwhole
