"How so, Will r" was Joe's reply, 1 "The fact is this Joe, I have lost everything by driniing, and if it WAS not for Annette's earnings I would starved long ago; and to -night I have not ft eent to buy a loaf of bread with.

Will," said Joe, "I'll get some bread for you, stay here a moment and get Borne in yon bakehouse," and off he went. "Here," said Will to himself, "it's not for me, but for Annette. I was the smartest fellow, and won her from him and some other fellows; he left the village the day we were married, and thus we meet again. He without his choice in life, but I,who win her, turn out badly, and have given her so much pain." A light tap on the shoulder, with the words "Clome, Will," interrupts him. "I will see you home." "Oh thank •you, Joe; if I went myself, I am afraid I would trade it off for rum." Arm in arm the two walked along, talking over old times, but not of An- nette. And at partingWill agreed to meet Joe in the morning, for a job, which, if he was steady, would be a turning point for him. Will turned in to his own door, saying to himself, "We will see if this meeting to -night makes a man of me or not." In the tack room of his cottage a young woman of 25 summers moves back and forth, preparing a nice supper that her needle had earned, talking to herself. "Will, I suppose, is toasting his shins at a gm house, but have him I would, and I will be true to him to the last. Here is a letter from sister Sue, telling me to leave him and come to her, and saying how I missed it in not taking Joe. Anyway I'll show her I won't detest him, for I took him for better or worse, and I'll keep my word ta the end, though it it may be a bitter one to me. The tramp of Will's foot- steps are now heard, with the remark_ as he enters the room, "I have got a loaf or so." But he does not tell who had seen him home. Supper is eaten, with only a few commonplace rerharks. After it Will said he would go to rest, and would Annette pleasemend up his blouse a bit, as he intended to go to work in the morning. Annette took up the blouse and worked away at it, while he went to sleep. To herself Annette said, "If he was a sober man, what a pleasure it would be for me to do it, and to know that his earnings were to be shared by me, but not so now. But I have him, and I shall endure him, to the end, for I scorned the good advice given, to take Joe instead. But he is not like some drunkards, who use angs7 words and blows to their poor wives. ' The blouse is mended, the tired wife drops it on the floor and goes to bed. Early with the break of the morning her slumbers are by a voice at her bed- side saying, "Annette drink this. I will not be back till night. I got the breakfast myself." "Oh, Will I" she cried, "why didn't you call me, and I nould have got it for you." "Not this morning. To -night I will be at home about the same time," and putting on his overcoat he was off. True to his word, Joe met him, and being a quick workman, Will Bowers Ask your neighbors if they use Dodds Kidney Pills?

With his earn- ings,. on Saturday night, he said to •Aiihette-, -"r rway spend -this tor you take it and get what is wanted." While she was gone he mutter § to himself, "Why did. I come to this, that I cannot trust myself, and Joe, whom I robbed of Annette, so kind to me. What wouldAnnette say, if..she knew it was him helped me turn over a new leaf? Oh! how he humbles me. I will Joseph Hopperton, a freight con - change for the better. Annette, why ductor on the Grand Trunk, was killed did I give you this sorrow of the past?" in the yard at St. Thomas on Saturday After a cloud comes brightness, and so it was with Will Bowers, he turned evening. to the right. All his earnings, with the exception of what he gave his wife for weekly expenses, he gave to his chum Joe, who settled some accounts at some gin houses, which Will had contracted. When those were paid, another amount was laid aside, not for the rent, nor yet for Joe, but suddenly Will remarked to Annette, "I am go- ing to move from here to another house, and you had better notify the parties who employ you that it is not your intention to take in any more sewing." The moving day came, and when all was over, and seated by the fireside in their new home, Will called Annette to his side, with the words, "I have something to show you, hut sit still a minute till I go to my writing desk," and taking therefrom a photograph i wrapped n a piece of paper, and a The finest, completeet and latest line of Meg soiled letter,written some time ago, by trIcal appliances in the world.

"It is the picture of my old beau, Toe. Where did you get it, Will ?" "It is one that he gave me when we were boys together," was the reply. "To -night I owe to him this home as my own," and he pulled from his coat pocket the deed of their house and lot. "In one of my dark days,when I strayed from the right, Joe met me in the city, cold with hunger, and with a throat parched for a drink of rum. He spoke kind words to me, brought me Iciest the gin house to my home, bought bread for me, and when we parted told me to meet him in the morning." Annette, threw her arms around him, exclaiming, "Oh! Will. it's just like Joe.

"Your money or your life!" and the sober citizen who had been detained down town was halted by the desperate and soulless robber. The scene was on the corner of one of Chicago's fashionable thoroughfares, and from the starlit skies Polanas and the peaceful Pleiades looked down upon the two men, one of whom held a revolver pointed at the other's head. Not another person was in sight. All was quiet. "Your money or your life," repeated the fiendish highwayman. "I'll give you my money," said the citizen, "but upon this condition—that you put some bullet holes through my coat. You see, I wan't to tell my friends how bravely I defended myself and will show these holes in proof of what I say." The robber sees visions of how easily he can win a nice sum of motley and complies. "That's right. Now another shot here through the lapel of the coat (shot fired). Now one through the coat -sleeve, but be careful you do not graze the flesh (third shot). Bravely done ! Now one through the leg of the trousers and the coat tail (fourth and fifth shots). Now we must have one through the coat and vest. I will open my vest thus, and you fire so it will go through both thicknesses of cloth. The boys up to the club cannot say I was not badly used up." The robber gets interested and fires the last shot in his revolver through the nn - offending coat, whereupon the sober citizen turns upon him, and drawing •his own weapon compels the robber to surrender the empty pistol. The malefactor is marched into town and handed over to the duly con- stituted authorities, and the sober citizen is the hero of clubdom.—Chicago Mail. Too Mild.

Had I read that letter be- fore I saw Joe, God knows what I would have done." "Say no more, Will; Sue wanted to win you, but you gave me the prefer- ence. Then Joe, whom I would not have, comes forward in our dark days with a brother's kindness, and did what few men rejected by a woman would do, but to speak of it to him would only give him pain." . Time went on, Will Bowers prosper- ed and children's happy voices prattled through his home, and among the pic- tures hanging on the walls is one with the words "our benefactor we have not forgotten." Sister Sue, who comes to see Annette, some years after writing that letter, asks, "'Why those words for Joe, Annette, when you bounced him?" "When Will had his dark days with drink, Joe came to his rescue, and had it not been ror him, backed perhaps by that letter you sent, we would not have what we own to -day. Kind deeds from a rejected man was one of the bitterest trials I have ever known. When Will got the deed of this house he told me of Toe's kindness to me." "Yes," said Sue, "I always wanted Will, and my aim in trying to part you was revenge, while Joe showed himself a true man, in saving Will trorn the grasp of drink. How different from me." ST.
