UP THE E FLUE':
A WOMAN'S ADVENTURE.
" You must have some rare experiences
to tell us, Mrs. Boswell," said persuasive
Lieutenant Russell, while we waited for the
mail stage. " You have been at this front-
ier post ever since Captain Boswell was
stationed here ?"
"Yea, we have been here eight years,"
she replied, with the rare smile that glorifi-
ed her face, " I have passed through many
trying ordeals here, but I really think I had
an adventure in the East, before I married
the captain, equal to anything that I have
experienced."
" Will you relate it, and oblige us 1" said
Russell.
" Mrs. Boswell," said Dan, the irrepres-
sible youngster

his thumb toward the lieutenant, " is out

ance if you will."
" Thank you," said our little hostess.
" I don't mind accepting the honor."
Three of us were sitting in the inner
apartment of the small frontier hostelry.
The barroom was packed with miners, and
we had chosen to have our supper served by
ourselves, as we had appointed to go on to
Custer City in company,
Mrs. Boswell was much below the medi-
um size, Tuck of speech, light of movement
as a bird and as graceful as a fawn.
" It was in 18—," she began. " I had
just made the acquaintance of Captain
Boswell ; he having some business matters
to arrange with father, had called at our
plare several times. finally there came a
rare day in Autumn, and ho and father
Were closeted the greater part of the day,
overhauling papers, memoranda, deeds,
receipts. My father at that time was doing
a great deal of business as an attorney.
"At tett-tltble father said to me : 'Bess,

Thomas is about, will you ?"
I said no, for although there were many
ahberies being committed in the neighbor.

may find us home again. Still, we may
be detained longer. Shan't I call and tell
your Cousin Milly to come down and spend
the night with you ?"
"'No—yes,' I contradictorily answered.
Do as you please ; I am not timid in the
least with Thomas about.'

sweet echoes.

I did not light a lamp ; I had no need of a
fire, as that in the kitchen stove warmed
the sitting-rpom sufficiently in the mild
weather.

ed an account of the arrival of Captain
Boswell and this important business affair.
"I would have enjoyed immensely to
kindle a sparkling fire in the huge wide
fireplace, but as affairs were I could not.
So I mused in the darkness hours. I
really took no heed of time, until my quick.
ear caught the sound of a footfall approach-
ing, close up to the door -step, 1 could have
taken my oath. It was so like an echo that
I sprang to, my feet, thinking that my
cousin Milly, absent when my father called,
and returning later, had come down to stay
with me. -
I sprang up with a smile to answer her
knock, albeit I was a bit jealous of her
pretty face ; bub no knock came, and the
echoes died out, and altogether 1 concluded
that I had deceived myself in regard to
them. Anyhow I would light the lamp. I
slid so, and was startled to find it past 10
o'clock. I had gotten sufficiently aroused
from my reverie to want a book from the
library shelves. I took up my lamp and
went singing into the room.
" I obtained the desired volume, stepped
down from the tool, and—
" If ever any one felt themselves flying I
did at that moment. My song died on my
lips, while a thousand thoughts seemed to
flash into my mind in one instant. Involun-
tarily 1 gasped, and then, with a strong ef,
fort of the will power, for which 1 was fam-
ous, I took up the song again and sang it
to a close.
"Among other things I remembered that
the lock was off the library door for repairs.
I remembered the lateness of the hour and
the possibility that all the people were in
bed and asleep. I remembered the footsteps
in the dooryard, and—there was a fresh
pungent smell of tobacco smoke in the room.
A scent of smoke that was not in the room
when I was there and placed the package of
money in my bosom.
"Do you wonder that my brain reeled
and my heart stopped beating for an in-
stant ? Beside, whoever the robber was, he
would soon begin work, not knowing how
early my father and the captain might re-
turn. And I should be murdered. Some -
whore within a few yards or a few feet of
me, the robber assassin was concealed—
eithor in the recess behind the cabinet, or
under the long, draped, paper -strewn
table.
"A faint sound outside nearly made me
drop the lamp ; still I had unconsciously
left my first song and was singing:
' For his bride a soldier won her,
And a winning tongue had he.'
"I knew that temporarily salvation—
power and liberty to leave the room, even—
depended upon my appearing unconscious
of the robber's proximity.
"I got out of the library and found my-
self in the sitting -room. A hasty glance at
the door showed the key was absent: -fedm
the lock.
Tteaeliery!
"I wonder that this new revelation did
not suffocate me. The man on the highway
—the injured brother—Thomas had betray-
ed us. He had overheard about the money.
A robber was in the house another was out-
side. My retreat would be cut off. How
thoughts ran riot through my mind 1 How
would they kill me? Would I suffer long?
At that instant I was sure I heard a faint
creak of the library door at the far end of
the hall.
" One swift, despairing glance around me,
one wild idea of escape, and I extinguished
the light upon the table, and crouching in
the fireplace, I rested one foot upon the
iron, swung out the iron crane, stepped the
other foot/ upon the strong support, and
rose up into the flue. Something torched
my head. Thank God 1 It was the rope
with which the dislodged bricks had been
hoisted out. Grasping this carefnlly with
my hands I held myself like a wedge in the
opening. If I had envied large, noble -look-
ing women before, I had now reason to be
thankful for my diminutive form and ninety
odd pounds of avoirdupois.
"' But Captain Boswell is going to leave
$5,000 .here until he returns.'
•' ' Does any one know about the money.
"'Only ourselves.'
"'Then I am not afraid. Beside, you
aro likely to be back before graveyards yawn
and thieves do walk abroad.'
'Thomas brought the horse round, and
while father spoke to him, 1 touched the
captain's sleeve.
Where is your money loft?"
"'In your father's desk in the library.'
Then he looked with a tender inquiring
glance into my face (how the little woman's
cheek flushed at the memory) and said :
' Little girl, if you are in the least afraid we
will not go to -night, although it is absolute-
ly necessary.'
"I told hire honestly that I was not
afraid. I never had that stratum of timid•
ity in my make-up peculiar to womanhood ;
and so they rose away.
"1 sang about my work as I put the things
In shape around the rooin, and viewed the
brilliant sunset, without a fear or care.
" Thomas, our new man -of -all -work, was
very bas puttering about the grounds, ty-
ing up bass:
and mulching evergreens.
I knew that there was some coarse after-
math upon the hill that father was anxious
to have put on the strawberry beds, and
seeing Thomas go up there with his basket,
I tied a scarf over my head, took another
basket, and went up to help him.
As I passed up the hill I saw a man in
the highway speak to him. I hesitated
about going on, but the man made only a
moment's pause, and then went down the
hill, and was soon concealed by a turn in
the highway.
"' Who was that, Thomas?" I enquired.
"'Oh, miss, it was a man from the mills,
saying that my brother has had a bad fall
on the dam, and is bellowing for me to come
and see him. His legs are broken entire-
ly."
"' What will you do? "
" `I told the man I couldn't come to sec
him to-day—but if I went, miss, I would be
sure to be back by 11 o'clock, if not. earlier.'
"' Yon may go, Thomas, if your brother
le hurt so bad. Papa will not be away
:Ion' ,But, my 'young lady-"
"' Never mind me in such a case as this."
I was always very tender-hearted. " Yon
may go, and •I will runback to the house,"
He talked a few minutes more, was pro-
fuse in his thanks for my kindness, and then'
started down for the city. I took up the
two baskets, and went singing to the house.
" 1 sat an hour at the open window, en-
joying intensely this being alone and the
quiet beauty of this cool Autumn evening.
t' Perhaps you will wonder at this," and
the dimples played about her pretty mouth,

"Tho cellar,' suggested] the voice,
Once inor•e they dashed out, only to re-
turn in hot haste now, for there was the
trot and rumble of a horse and carriage on
the bridge between us and the city.
" 'Say,' urged the stranger, 'trump up
some kind of a story, and we may secure the
money yet.'
"'I would,' returned Thomas, 'but the
girl's a witch, and I am just as sure that
she is somewhere near ns all the time, and
would hand me over to justice.'
"There was a scamper outside and the
sound of feet running toward the river came
down tlio wide month at the top of the
chimney. Bather and Captain Boswell drove
into the yard and up to the door, just as the
clock struck twelve.
"'Thomas,' called my father, in his ring-
ing tones, 'come and take care of the horse.
"Receiving no'response from his usually
punctual factotum, he sprang up the steps
and uttered an exclamation of horror at find-
ing the door open.
'Boswell,' said he, ' we certamiy saw a
light hero when we came down the hill.'
Quick, Jason,' said the captain, 'there
has been foul play.'
"' Father,' I strove to call, but the first
attempt, choked in dust and soot, ended in
a hysterical hiccough.
"' What is that? What is that?' called
my distracted father, and both men dashed
for the library.
"I now strove to descend, but the move-
ment brought down bushels of mortar and
broken bricks from all sides, and closed up
the flue. I bethought Inc of the rope, and
by sticking my toes in here and there I went
up the chimney hand over hand.
"Agile as it cat, when I reached the top
of the low chimney I sprang down upgn the
roof and began calling Loudly for father.
"You should have beard them run through
the house and halloo before they located my
voice. At last the captain came outdoors.
"' Will you get me a ladder, please ?' said
I. ' I want to get down from here.'
"' A ladder, Jason,' shouted the captain;
' the little girl is on the roof.'
"' For the love of heaven, girl, how came
you there?' said my father, as I landed upon
the ground and began shaking the soot from
my clothes.
' 1 went up there through the chimney,
papa. But you had better put up the horse
--and then I will tell you all about it.'
" The captain led me into the house, for I
was trembling violently.
"' Now,' said father, being absent only
a moment or two, without letting nut have
time to mop the smut from my face and
hands, ' now tell us what this menus—my
little girl climbing the ridgepole like a cat
at midnight.

"' Thomas, the villain 1' ejaculated my
father. ' I'll have him if 1 have to hunt the
two continents for trim, and he shall have his
deserts."
"He kept his word. Thomas got a term
in the State Prison.
" W hon I gave the captain his money I
should have burst out in hysterical sobbing

Captain Boswell believed that stature and
bulk were not always certificates of the best

"And," finished Dan, our jester, "it may

" You do seem to have had your share of

" Luck 1" said the man. " Why, look at
me when I wanted to get married. I fell in
love with a girl and I thought sheloved,me.
I went to her and said : ' Elizabeth, were
you ever married?' -
"' Why, no,' she said, blushing. ' You
know that.'
"' Well, Elizabeth,' I said, 'you are a
good girl, and since no man—'
"Then slie burst out crying and ran out
of the room, so that I could not finish what
I wanted to say."
" Well, that was a funny way to ask a
woman to marry you," said the man of sym-
pathy.
" What way ?"
" Telling her that you were sorry that no
man would have her."
"No man have her?" said the unlucky
man. "I never said a word about that. I
was going to say since no man could be good
enough for her I hoped she would forgive
my feelings. Wasn't it hard luck that the
wouldn't let me finish my sentence?"
" Why didn't you go back and explain
it?"
" Well," said the unlucky man, sorrow-
fully, " I was bound to get married, so I
went and proposed to Sarah Smithtand she
took fine. -
" I had little time, however, to consider
anything except the imminent danger of
dislodging a fragment of brick or mortar,
and urns discovering my hiding -place, for
the clock began with sonorous peals to
strike 11. Under cover of its echoes there
were quick, soft steps in the hall, and the
bolt of the outer door was withdrawn. The
huge flue must have acted like a telephone,
for I heard every sound with fearful dis
tinetness. First there was a pause by the
door of the sitting -room, then breathing in
it, then whispering.
" She isn't here ; she's gone to bed ; but
the money is in the library.'
"' Be cautious,' advised a strange voice,
and we may not have to hurt het."
" They carefully retreated, and my heart
truck of the seconds against my ribs in
a way that was suffocating ; for I knew
that their search would soon be over, and
what then ?
"In less than five minutes they were
whispering m the rooin again.
"' Confound her 1' aspirated Thomas, 'she
took the money with her.'
"' Then we'll have it if—'
" The pause meant all that words could
convey.

every pore of my body. The dust of the
creosote had penetrated my mouth and
nostrils, and I had to take one hand from.

"' Come, hurry,' was the angrywatch-
word exchanged between them, and I heard
the stairs creaking as they ascended to my
chamber. Thomas was familiar with all the
house.
Why did I not drop down and escape
outside
"First, then, they had locked the outer
door and withdrawn the key •to prevent a
surprise from without. Second, there might
be a third confederate outside. But the
most important reason of ,all was, it seems
to me, th.:t 1 never could get out of the
aperture that had allowed me entrance into
the chimney. I ran the risk of 'discovery
and death in any case.
" Oh, why did not my father and his
companion return? Tt might be hours first.
" They had found the absent from my
chambers and the adjoining rooms. They
"At any rate you got married?"
"Married? Not a bit of it. Sarah Smith
heard that I loved Elizabeth and had made
that mistake, and she got mad and broke the
engagement."
"Then you had your chance to go back to
your first love?"
" I did."
"Did you get her?"
" Get her? No ! I tell you, man, I'm the
unluckiest being alive. I went back and
asked her plunk out to marry me, and found
that after she heard about my engagement
to Sarah Smith she's gone and promised to
marry a fellow who'd been begging her to
marry him for the last five years."
" Why didn't you wait then to see if she
didn't break her engagement?"
" Hang it, man, 1 did."
"Did you go back again?"
" No ; I didn't."
"Why not?"
"Because I'd changed my mind about get-
ting married. Didn't I tell you I was the
unluckiest man in the world?"

A Warning To Mothers.
There is too much of her in the home.
She may be the patient, self-sacrificing
mother who gets overtired that others may
go free ; she may be an elder sister who has
sacrificed- all the graces and gifts of individ-
ual life to a family of younger brothers and
sisters.
Perhaps she isa maiden aunt who smoothes
the 'ay with anxious eagerness for every-
body's feet but her own or a grandmother
whose burdens multiply with the coining of
the second generation because the young
mother has not learned the secret of living
her life independently.
Whatever emergency of life may have
called out her unselfishness, there it is, and,
as I said before, there is altogether too
much of it. •
Why? Because there is such a thing as an
unselfishness that passes beyond the proper
bounds and becomes mean-spirited. •
It lays aside that proper recognition of
self which commands respect, and which is
wholly necessary for individual well being.
That the mother should be the head, the
brains of her family, what is more fitting?
That she should be hands and feet, that she
should serve before them like a hired as-
sistant, a thousand times no 1
These unselfish women; in their anxiety
to exemplify the golden rule, quite forget
that self, after all, underlies its measure of
valves. • If a great many women treated
their neighbors no better than they treated
themselves this would be a sad world for
neighborliness.
And this unselfishness is sure to work
mischief in a family, too. For nnselfishness
is unlike most other virtues, in that it breeds
its opposites, not its own kind.
In a family where the wife, or the mother
or the elder daughter, is anxiously unselfish
where she watches every opportunity to do
for the other members of the family what
there is every good reason they should do
for themselves, these others learn quickly
enough first to accept it, then to assume it,
and finally to demand it.
And so there comes out of the home of the
unselfish woman a flock of careless, selfseek-
ing children, intent on themselves, crimin-
ally heedless of everybody else, trampling
on the rights of others, and having to unlearn
perhaps late in life, the selfish lessons they
learned at their unselfish mother's knee.
Rarely is it that the lesson ie learned as
it should be, and so is kept up the army of
selfish men and women who ,make half the
burden and unhappiness of living.

DEAR SIRS Your" Dr, Morse's Indian Root Pills"
are the best regulator for the system that humanity
can use. Life is as the time -piece : frail and delicate
are many of its works, A tiny particle of foreign
substance adheres to the smallest wheel in the works,
and what is the result?—at first,only aslightdifference
is perceptible in its time -keeping, but wait you ; as
the obstruction grows the irregularity becomes
greater, until st last, what could have been rectified
with little trouble, in the beginning, will now require
much care in thoroughly cleansing the entire works.
So it is in human life—a alight derangement is neg-
lected,
eglected, it grows and increases, imperceptibly at first,
then rapidly, until what could, in the beginning,
have been cured with little trouble, becomes almost
fatal. To prevent this, I advise all to purify the
system frequently, bydYouretfaitI to iso of Morse's pills, and
le preterse viggr and vitality.
hfully,
