BY PAUL, DE/GERRY.
\-. "What will Patience Grey do new ?" I
iiked of my cousin, as we at on the'veran- '
da, one morning, and looked across the field
to the deserted looking Grey farm•house.
' "Poor Patience 1 my heart aches for her,"
saidnmy cousin.
' I looked up, at the tremor in her eiroioe.
There were tears in her eyes.
" She isn't so very poor, is she? or she
wouldn't be so considered; here," I said.
" She will have a thousand or two from her
father's estate, Isuppone, and a women like
Patience Grey will easily earn her living in
tome way."
"0• Paul! with all your learning you
know very little about some things," said
Catherine, severely. " Let'me tell you. In
the first,place, Patience is krty ; herhealth,
is broken; she will never be strong again.(
Her nerves have been overtaxed' for years.
For fifteen years her mother has been an in-
valid, and many times she has been at the
point of deeth. I verily believe that Pe-
tience's untiring devotion and prayers have
added years to her mother's life. Many
tithes I have stood by Mrs. Grey's bedside,
with the thought that her sufferings were
over, but Patienoe nursed her back to life
again and again. There were often weeks
that the devoted daughter did not go to bed
at night,and many nights in succeseion when
her eyes were not closed. Three years ago
Mrs. Grey died, and soon after Mr.Grey had
a 'paralytic stroke and until he died, a week
ago, he has been as helpless as a child. The
other children went out from the- old home
to homes of their own. Fred has a fine po-
sition in a bank. Welter is a teacher'and
commands a good salary. Jane and Delia
married well, but what has Patience to show
for all her 'vanished. years'?"
"Her father gave her a weekly allowance,
surely," I said. "Though or °guise 'money
cannot pay such debts, neither can money
buy bitch unselfish devotion." „
"No," said Catherine, " Patienoe never
received any wages, Besides the care of
her parents and the, housework, she.empley-
ed her spare moments in doing sewing and
making rugs which ehe sold, and bought her
clothes and furnished many little comfOrts
for her father and mother besides."
"Well, I never supposed Mr. Grey so
small a man as that," I said.
"No, you misjudge him,Paul. Mr. Grey's
little property was in land, you know, and
It was let out on shares • and if you know
anything about the profits of a farm in these
days, you will understand how small his in-
come was. Then there were always big doc-
tor bills, and the debts of that 'scape-goat'
-Jack. Oh! nay blood boils when I think
of him 1 I doubt ff he ever did one thing
in his life from a pure, unselfish Motive, or
has ever made the world' one whit better for
havhsg lived in it. He certainly never did
anything to brighten his parents lives, and
yet he will share equally with Patience in the
few thousand /dollars that his father left.
Oh 1 Paul, thie is a strange yvorld 1 Have
yotr roade the discovery that It is so?"
I said, "1 ham) formed that
-opinion from certoin phases I have 'seen of
it. But Catharine, isn't there a law of com-
pensation? pqnot you believe in that ?"
a
•
"Vee; Paul,..I believe there is such a law
written in the statute hooka of heaven, but
there is none in this selfish world, except
the consciousnees of right living, and the
joy that comes to a heart at peed() with God
and one's own contcience. But. I do believe
if there it, a soft place in heaven, it is for
Patience Grey, and the scores of women like
her, who spend their livesita unappreciated
toil an self-saorifice."
"But her parents apprecieted Patience's
devotion, did they not?"I.asked.
"Yes, certainly they did," said Cath
erine. "Only it seemed as if they accept-
ed and expeeted it, as We do our common
bleseinge of sir and sunshine. And Patience -
thought it only her dutyi ;I am sure no one
ever heard her coniplain.f.'
"But' her brothers and sisters kpow what
you have told me. Surely they will give up
all claims to their father's estate," I ques-
tioned. " He must have known thy would
do what was right else he would have given
it to Patience by will. I wonder that he
did not do th\ot. It would have been little
enough, 1 ant sure."
"'0 yes," esteld Catherine, "I will tell you
just how magnanimous they were. They
came to the funeral, well-dressed, well-fed

family ileyou reckon age according to years,
but sheldoked almost old enough to be the
mother of them all. Well, after it W9S' all
over, and it was found there was no will,

ture she wiehed to keep, 'as she had taken

' Don't Hurry.
There is no doubt that hurry and worry
- wearlhe people out much faster than work.
When we begin the day with the thought
that the work is crowding, and wonder if we
fi(lutll get it done'if we watch the clock, im-
patient that the hours are slipping away no
fasts the mind tires the body. We have no
right to drive ourselves e at this rate. If
we can only keep ouratives from feeling
hurried we shall get thrangh the day much
evorthr. It is not always the work we do in
a day that tires us, but the work we meant
to tio and did not get done.
-1 While It is important to plan one's work
in advance, yet be careful not to plan too
muyh, nor let your plans be as unchangeable
as thislaws of The Medea and Persians. No
tines is really wseted that is spent by the
busy housewife in a little rest now end then.
It need not be sleep, but the dropping down
on a lo,unge*, relaxing every muscle and clos-
ing the eyes, for even a few minetes will
rest one wonderfully. A motto taken from'
my calendar seems to me good advice for
eve y busy housewife :

" As thy day thy strength shall be." .

sends them, and the evils of it bear patient-

all these years,' as Jack said, and that was
more than he could say.' Y ou can imagine,
Paul, how valuable the best of the furniture
would be, after the wear of sixty years."
"But the farm, is that to be sold ?" I
asked.
"Yes, as soon aa a purchaser can be
found," said Catherine. That was' what
they decided was best to 4 done. An ad-
vertisement was sent to the local paper the
week after the funeral. They'seemed in a ,
hurry to mend Patience adrift, before she
had time to make: any plans, or adjust her-
self to her changed circumstance's."
"But they offered to give her a home, I
suppose ?" I asked meekly, fearing a storm
bf wrath which I saw gathering in my
cousin's face would burst on my defenceleap
head.
" 0 yes, they went through that form-
ula," said Catherine. "They knew very
well Patience would never be dependept

There was a• woman down on a farm in
%Tenneesed who wrote an article on, pig kill-
ing, and sent it to a New York editor. It
was a subject she knew all about,, and she
set it forth ivith so much wit, vivaeity and
learning that the editor, wrote to hers and
she in now doing good work with. liar pen in
thienciity.
oya
short time ago a young girl went
to 'Kew York with a letter from her pester
to 4the Young Woman's Christian ekesocia-
tio0, where she was aisle to find lodgings.
Tien next day, in a large plaid ulster, she
Preieented herself at one of the largest pub -
Hailing houses in town, and announced that
-
she had brought three stories to sell. It
was the first writing she had ever done, and
she thought that she would just bring it to
New York herself. - When she left the office
she carried away a check for seventy-five
dollars; The three stories were taken on
the spot. The girl was pretty, but the vari-
ous editors declared that her beauty had
nOthing to. do with the case.
!These are sufficient instances to allow that
a woman' with a new idea of value, no mat-
ter how obscure the place in which she lives,
can make the value ef her idea felt in the

this: The usual callings of women are so

speedy operation. Bi4t for new ideas there
was never, since the hys of the Athenians

Saving Work. -
"Von would scarcely believe,'! said a lady
to a caller, who dranped in one morning,
" but I haven't swept my parlors, thoroughly
in three months, at least what we would
ordinarily call sweeping theina and I am
sure you will agree that they dOn't look it.
Of course, I have points in My favor, as
there are no children about the liouse,except
thosh of, casual dealers; but even then I
should not be such a slave to a sWeeping-day
as most of my friends are. Tabegin with,
I never allow my r oms to get all littered
up. To be aure, ete ual vigilance is rather
hard work, but all the satne, I think it pays.
I never see a scrap of any sort on the carpet
without picking it up at the first Opportun-
ity. I take pairs t ' keep things as far as
possible. in their pl ces, and between you
and me, what I thinL is the strongest of all
points, I have just as little in my rooms as
I tan get along with. For years my life
was a burden with brie•a;brac and trinkets
and ornaments and draperies and fancy ar-
ticles of every desoription, which had to be
put in order and dustel. and looked after
daily. Now I keep within easy reach a
very large, soft squire of flannel. This I
wring very dry out of clean water, and once
in a while move an attiole of,, furniture and
wipe the dust off from the harpet under it
with this cloth. 1 never bother myself to
go over the whole room li one time, but
Just keep track of. the plac6o where dust is
most likely to accumulate. , My dusting is
done with soft, rather large cloths. I wipe
up the dust; with the utmost care, working
very slowly, and between every article I
take the oloth to the open door or window
and give it a thorough shaking. In this
way I not only clear the dust off from the
artiolee in the room, but keep it from the
carpet and get it out Of the room altogether.
"There is science in everythlng, even in
dusting a room, and / contend; and with a
fair array of facts to 1 prove my statement,
that if the parlor is properly cared for, one
,sweeping in a month will answer every pur-
pose. Of course, sitting-roomsand dining -
rooms need more care, but then,'once a week
is plenty, if the dusting -cloth and brush are
used with discretionad thoroughness,"
