WILD MARSH MARIGOLDS.
ier Age' neernomen.
" It's pretty enough -pretty enough,"
add Mr. Mortimer, with, a de.preolating air,
as he looked at the folds of rich, Wine -color-
ed silk which were flung overithe soreen be-
fore him. "Bat this art -embroidery busi-
ness is rayed out. Nobody wants to buy
"My sister would be very glad to sell it,"
•sitid the tall, pale lad that had submitted it
1for inspection.
Mr. Mortimer whistled softly, regarded
the drapery from between his half-closed
eyedids, and felt reflectively of his ohln.
" Well," said he. "you may leave it here
for a day or two. Sy for a week. I don't
allppOS3 it willeell. But if it should -go off,
I shall charge twenty-five per cent commis-
sion. If it don't sell, kehall expect a dollar
a day ite MIL"
- "Very well, sir," the lad meekly re-
sponded. But he sighed softly as he went
away.
Billed& Elwyn, sitting at work in the lit-
tle top room of the tenement house, looked
eagerly up as Karl came back. She was a
bright-eyed, heotic-oheekedgirl of 18, with
abundant gold -brown hair ; and even as she
sat atilt, her fingers flew through meshes -of
rose and white split zephyr, making what
fine ladies- call " fascinaters," for some fancy
store or other. For Elfieda Elwyn belonged
to the worker,' of the world, and the feeble,
paralyzed old mother who lay on her narrow
cot -bed in the corner was utterly dependent
on these flying fingers for eupport.
"Wali, Karl," *he cried, brightly, "I see
you havent brought it beck. Did they ac-
cept it ?"
" I left it, Fleda," said the boy, gravely,
"at Mortimer & OA. tried ever so many
places first, and that was my lett resort.
But I did'at eel! it. The man spoke very
discouragingly, but I left it. If , it meets
with a sale, he is to have twenty-five per
cent commiition. If it don't you are to pay
a dollar a day for the time it remains there.
Hard, isn't it ?" as he saw the quick shadow
oome over Elfieda's face. "But it's the best
I could do. Don't deepair, sis, Perhaps
there is good luok in store for us."
Elfieds brushed the dew of tears from
her eye-laihea, Ind went quietly on with her
work,
The bright fabtic of wine -red, hroidered
over with tangled reeds and radiant blood
some, had scarcely hung for two hours over
the screen at Mortimer & Cos, when 'Mrs.
St. Dominel crone in, her scented 'bawl
trailing over her shoulder, and a Fiona
hat tied picturescpiely,over- her midttle-aged
curls. She stepped short in front of the
portiere whereithe wild marsh marigolds
glowed so vividly.: -
44 How lovely 1" the cried. "What ex-
quisite colors ! What poetic treatment!
What is the price of the thing, Mortimer ?"
‚•‚A hundred dollen, madam."
" take it," said Mrs. St. Dominel.
"And I want a est of alcove draperies done
in the same pattern. By this day week,
please ?"
"Madam, it is impossible," said Morti-
mer. " This exquisite gem is imported. I
couldn't match it in alcove curtains short of
five hundred dollars."
"Then I'll pay five hundred dollars," saido
_Mrs. Ste Dominel, "Only be sure that you
have them ready for the 15th-iCis my fete
day, and I expeot hosts of peaple. - The pat-
tern is absolutely tecesweet."
And the rich lady rustled herself out into
a glistening carriage, and departed, leaving
Mr. Mortimer to despatch a hurried Men-
age to the addrees which Karl Elwyn had
left.
The boy came running eagerly up stairs,"
two steps at a time., when he had received
ifs COMMiaSiOD, and soampered home,
"Only think, Fleda," he exclaimed, rap-
turonaly, "the curtain is sold. For fifty -
dollars. And that with the twenty-five
per cent commission off is thirty-seven dol-
lars 1"
Fledas countenance brightened.
"1 am so glad 1" she exolaimed. " But -
but I hoped it would bring a little more.
The material cost twenty-six dollars, and I
worked a whole week on it until 10 o'elodk
at night."
"Oh, but you haven't heard all," said
Karl. "You are to do a pair of alcove dra-
peries to match, and they are to be finished
within ten days, and old. Mortimer will pay'
you seventy-five dollars for them if they suit
exactly. He says you are to find the ma-
terial as you did before, for they must be a
perfect match."
Melia, sat silently articulating metters in
her Mind.
"I am afraid I shall not make much pro-
fit out of it," she said. But of course, I will
accept the commitaion ; it may load to -better
things."
And se she set herself dilligently to work,
scarcely pausing long enough to eat or
_ sleep, so anxious was she to complete the
order, and receive the promised compensa-
tion.
"For," she reasoned within heraelf, " we
owe the doctor so much already that I am
ashamed to look him in the face; and he is
- so kind, so faithful in hisyisits. If I could
pay him mien five dollars it would be a load
off my mind."
The upshot of the business was that poor
Elfiedtt finished the draperiee, but fell ill
with a nervous exhaustion and over -fatigue
. the very next day. The doctor, a tall, hand-
some young man, with dark, Spanish eyes,
and -a profile like a cameo, ahook his head,
and said:
"You have overdone yourself, Miss El-
wyn 1"
And then Elfieda made her oonfession,hnd
told him of the Herculean task she had just
completed. , .
"1 am to receive Reventy-five dollars for
this," said she. "To be sure, I owe forty
for the niaterial, but there will be thirty-five
n
dollara left and we owe money to our land-
lord, and there is last mooth's grocery bill
yet unpaid, and poor mamma needs a little
wine, and-
" I see," said the doctor, shrewdly. "But
I am afraid, Miss Elwyn, it will be a dear
thirty-five dollars for you."
Ais he diet at the table writing a prescrip-
tiv'
e the door opened and Mita Pantile
Stooicton came in.
Fannie Stockton wad a bright little dam -
sol of twenty or so -one ofthe shop -girls at
Messrs. Mortimer & Co's-and she was full
of news,
Did you hear, Fleda," she cried, with-
out at first noticing the presence of the dal -k-
eyed stranger in the corner, "your lovely
embroidery has been sold for five hundred
, dollars? And your fortune is made."
"Alt that I'eeceived was seventy-five dol-
lars " said Elfle,da, her cheeks flushing:
"Then,"oried Pennie, "old Miser Morti-
mer has een at Ma old tricks again! I
heard the bargain myself. It was Mrs. St.
Dominel who bought the ourtains-Mrs.
Domiuel, of Fifth avenue, and-"
The doctor looked up quickly, as Elfieda
made her friend stop.,
"It is my mother, he aaid, quietly. "I
am Dr. St. Dominel ! So she has bought the
portienee, has she? Well, of one thing I em
very certain, she has been no party to this
mieerable double dealing."
"No, ° certainly not," said Pennie,
herself bluehing a very becalming pink.
" heard the whole bargain. She sup-
posed that Mr. Mortimer had cabled to
Paris for them. And he allowed her to be
lieve SD."
"The man must be a thorough -paced vit-
t lain," said Dr, St. Dominel, compressing his
lips, "My mother shall be informed of his
base behavior."
But all that did. but little immediate good
to poor Elfleda Elwyn, who fell into a low
fever; and lay at death's door for weeks, and
when she recovered Dr. St. Deminel took
her hand in his.
" Elfleda," he said, "if you ha& died all

So Elfleds Elwyn became erigaged, Al-

And little Karl and the, sick mother were
luxuriously provided for now, and life was
alrsurishine. Except Mr. Mortimer, who
lost Mrs, St. Dominel's custom for good and

They started. He held aloft the embroil%

"Waugh !"
rt was the woman who spoke. She had
just discovered that one of the steel ribi
above her was sending a stream of water
into the flower -garden on her hat.
"'Here, you jay. Let me hold it." ,
With a vicious frown she jerked the Um-

brella from the man's hand,
"Pity you don't know anything," she
snarled.
It rained. The wind blew in fitful kusti.
The man and the weman advanced half a

It was the man who ejaculated. He had
found rivulet of rain running down his

" Gimme that"
Liko a dash he snatched the umbrella,
from her grasp.
" give you some pointers," he growled.
It rained. The wind blew in fitluX gusts,
The Man and the woman proceeded twenty
feet.
"Will you kindlr hold that umbrella so
that a portion at lost of the water will net

She was decidedly icy about it.
"Hold it youriielf if you can did abir

" I'd rather have no umbrella."
" Walk in die rain, then."

IA Mother and Her Boy.
The diother and boy were for the
train in the Albany station, when the dulf-
nese was broken by a funny figure of an old
woman, in a rusty gown, a catskin muff and
tippet, and a black bonnet made of as many
-
odds and ends as a magpie's net, and her
false front askew. She kept cheering on
nothing, working her umbrella' and opening
and -shutting the ,other handin its black
glove in the -aimless way of old people.
The high-school girls began to titter and
make -jokes to each other, watching the old
lady ar too openly for good manners, or anY
man ers at all.
The young lady in the smart tailor euit
who gives readings at Sunday .school -, con-
certs smiled back at them and studied the
old creature with a satiric eye. • ' '
The boy began to laugh Quietly with the
rest., "Do look mother. Is'nt she Ninny.
Did you ever see such a sight ?" ,
The mother glanced delicattly and ttirned
her eyes. ,
1
"Poor lady," she said.
i
Ho was, silent, considering. ,
"11 I hadhit you," she went on, "and had
lost all my money, and • grieved over all I
had lost, in my money afid friend's, till my
mind was touched, and I lived alone among
queer people, I mightlook just like that w� -
man. She must have`been very good look-
ing when she wee young."
The boy's mouth twitched, as he tarried
his gaze from the poverty piece, as some of
the girls called her, to his pleasant mother,
and, as the old lady went prowling about
looking for something, a light step was at
her side, a cap raieed, and a kindly, boyish
voice asked: "Can I do anything for yen, •
madam ?"
"1 was looking for some place to bufr
some eheckerminta," said the old soul, nocl
ding carelessly and blinking with weak °yea.
"1 like cheekerminte if • there Bostoo

made so many mistakes that he knew the

"You'll get it, Jones. The old man's

A Noble Triumph. •
1Not many years ago the house of a well-
known elergyman In New York was entered
by -a burgrar. In his inealthy Rearch for
plunder, tilt fellow ventured too far, and
awoke the/owner.
•1The niiiiieter, beinia brave -and mesoular
man; seized and disarmed the thief, who.
after a. !harp struggle, in Which the minister
had the asaietance of members of his family,
?was seeurely bound., Then the burgler
was marched to the bearest police station,
where he was left solely in the hands of the
lane . .
• It wail the way of the clergyman to meke
thorough work with what he began, and he
followed the case till he saw the culprit
tried and sentenced to State prison for three
years. ;
But this was notl the end of his thorough
wink. He had suelpressed a' criminal, and
served the ends of ;justice ; now, he thought
of the criminal as a fellow -man.
He visited him in prison, talked with him
a friendly manner,and won hie. oon•
fidenoe. By arrangement With the prison
atithoeities he sent him letters and received
replies.
The correspondence and repeated visits
produced the beet effect and soarbely a year
had passed when the clergyman felt eertein •
that the character of his convict friend was
radically Ohanged. The man's beheivior
inclined his keepers to the same good
6.
opinion.
After waiting a proper time the clergy-
.
man applied to the governor, secured the
priioner's pardon -and befriended him
after his release. The repentant burglar

A Simple Relief For Lung I
Trouble.
It has long been known that pine needle
pillows would alleviate persons afflicted
with lung troubles, and a Florida editor re-
lates an incident in support of the feet as
follows: During a 'visit to the home of a
most estimable lady living on Indian river,
this editor wao told of a discovery that had
been made which may prove a boon to suf-
ferers from lung or bronchial troubles. This
lady having beard that there was peculiar
virtoe in a \pillow made from pine straw,and
having eone of that material at hand, made
one front fine, soft pine shavines, and had
the 'pleasure Of noting immediate beeefit.
Soon islithe members of the household had
pined shavings pillows, and it was noticed
tat i on coughs, Fasthmatio or bronchial
Pitcher's bastoria•
troubles abated at Once after sleeping a few
nights on these pillows. An invalid suffer-
ing from lung trouble derived muoh benefit
from sleeping upon a mattress made from
pine shavings. The material is cheap, and
the Christian of Work says it Make. a very
pleasant and comfortable mattreis, the'odor
.of the pine permeating the entire room and
absorbing or dispelling all unpleasant odors.
