BY SABAli OENE Jew= PART THIRD. There Were very few idle home when the month of August came in. The great hem* was as full as it could be, and all the girls were busy early and late. Mrs. Preston, the housekeeper,' often *looked pale and tired, but she was never impatient with those young helpers who tried hard -to do their work and had some conscience about it, even if they didanake mietakes, or get a little behind -hand. There were some girls who did vex her every. day, and who could dot be trusted, and tried to take advantage. The little _eorld of the vests knew almost nothing of the little world of those who served them, of its trials, or its hopea and ainbitions. Mery Fleming had found some very kind friends among the guests in her corridor and it even surprised her some- times to'find how anxious she was to please them and make them comfortable. She had learned to take good care of the pretty dresses es if they were her own, to hang them up caretully and' protect them from the dust Mrs. ltreston had spoken to all the girls about this one day, and shown them exactly. how to do certain little things that often ce‘me in their way, but some one had smartly aid that she was not hired to be everybodyas waiting maid, and many of the *.girls had given themselves as little trouble as possible on these geounds. Mrs. -Prestonwas always saying that the people who came were guests of the house, and that one's duty to one's guest was usually plebe Politenese is a habit of doing the kindest thing in the kindest tiay, and some- times it is the rudest person who needs one's kindness most. Mary Arley liked Mrs. Preston, but she was fond of her fun with the 'other girls, and a gay troth was dearer to her heart than anything else. So it came about in time that Mary Fleming knew and loved Mrs. Preston the best of the two, not that she did not take her share of much of the fun that was always going on, but she had much that was grave and serious to think of about her home affairs and her own future, and then there was the new joy about John. She could not say anything yet about these things to anybody, but she felt sure of the sympathy of a wise, sweet, elderly woman like the houskeeper, who had known so much of the joys and. sorrows of life. The two Marys had a little room together next Mrs. Preston's own. They used to talk a good deal late at night about people and things as agirls will, and sometimes Mni. Prest'on had to tell them to_ be quiet and go to sleep. They grew very wen used to her quick raps on the wall. One night when Mary Ailey was in the middle of an entertaining account of %battle between the colored head waiter and . one of the porters, boat' being persons of great size and dignityatheifamiliar rap sounded, and then while theyewere still whispering and lau hing softly they heard it again and She wants something ; I'll get up," ifn said Mary Fleming,but Mary Arley said no,. that she was only hushing them. " We weren't making noise enough for her to hear," insisted. Mary Fleming listening ; then shogot up and hurried to the house- keeper"( room. Poor Mrs. Preston was really ill ; there was an anxious moment or two before they persuaded her to let them go and wake the doctor. " I always say that this hotel is just the same as a town. All sorts eapeople live in it," said our Mary, dressing as fast as she could. It was the middle of the -night and , the great houee was still • before they could get lea& with the doctor "Mrs. Preston was everi more ill than before. " Ill take care of her," Mary Fleming told- her friend, " if you can manage part of my work for me in the Morning. Go to bed, Mary ; that's a good girl, and Ill stay here." The doctor was an elderly man who had been staying in the house all summer, and he looked at eur friend earnestly as he came back to the room with some medicine. I trust you to do just what I say, so that this good friend of ours may be a great deal better in the morning ?" " Yes, you can trust Mary Fleming, said Mre. -Preston eagerly. " I will answer for her," and the doctor went on mixing his doses and giving, the directione. After he went away Mary sat by the window. It was a lovely' night ; the waning moon was just rising:behind the great hills, and one by onatheir shadowy shapes stood out clear in the dim light. It was only a little after twelve o'clock, and for a girl who had been on her feet, quick and busy all day the thne until daylight seemed long. It' was lucky that there was a good deal to do for Mrs. Preston at first, and thereafter awhile when she was better it was very hard to keep awake, She did not like to walk about the room or even to move for fear of waking the patient. Suddenly she noticed that the sky had a strange lighe in it • that was not moonlight, down toward the south. Mary wondered idly what it Could be ; not northern lights, not moonlight ; fires in the woods perhaps ; but at tbat moment the strange red glow grew higher and spread wider. it was a great fire and it was in the direction of her own 'home.

There, wail nd large village, between'. the hotel aed home.* • The great total. end all its buildings iseeM- ed as sound asleep on the long hill -slope as anybody tinder their roof& The ,stillness was profound out of doors, and the sick woman slept quietly, free from pain at. last, , in her narrow bed at the 'other side of the roont. The lightwas turned very low, . and. an open closet door shaded the room. At last Mary could net bear to' look at .the great red light any longer ; its was 'afraid that the should forget and meant or ory aloud. She left the window and crept eta- ' ly over to the bed and sat down Ion the floor by the foot and leaned. her head against the edge. The tears stole down her cheeks ; she could, not'help orying. Oh, if she could only fly to her mother 1 She covered her face and turned away from- the light. It wag still three or four hotirS before mornhig. • She thought of all -the taoubles of thiur household at home, and mild not see what . working for the small wag that she was she oould dote help them. ist3he must go on only fit to earn, and give , her father and mother.what she oould, Oh, if her father could get awaj fromDolton; he could not get well there and so he °Old not work, he hed no money and there were too many houies in Dolton already. There was no In--20'of either letting or -selling timing; and: 'the - weight of the mortgege wouldtrouble them more and more. She never could let John Abbott Weigh himself &mu -with the bur- den of such failure and poverty. She had not known what to isay to him when be talked on in his lighthearted way, making plans about what they were going to do ter gether by and byt In the graydawii Mrs. Preston stiried and awoke. " Why, Mary deer 1" she said, puzzled at first, and then remembering. Were you so frightened, child ; nave you been awake all night ? Don't mind, I'm all right now. I *suppose that' the doctor frightened you a little, but in a day ,or two I shall be quite myselt again. Why, Mary and go to sleep for a 'little while." But Mary was already at the table measuring one of the small doses that the doctor had left. She pulled the curtains down. She felt stiff and lame ; it was a great comfort to - have something to do instead of sitting and thinking of all the awful things that might or must have happened. Early, before anyone else was etirring in the house, Mary heard the dootor coming, along the corridor. He was a lame man and she knew the sound of his limping otep, and went out to meet him. " You did not send the night watchman after me ?" he said. " I am glad to hope that everything has gone -well.". " Why, yes !" he said cheerfully a mo- ment later. " You do your young nurse great credit ?" and Mrs. Pureston smiled. And my doctor, too," she said. " You have. done just as I told you," said the doctor to Mary, looking at the ton was a verj sick woman le.st night. I was very much worried after I went down stairs, and feared that I °nett to have got somebody else to come and watch, but I thought that I could trust you and I was afraid of the bad effect ef coming back and disturbing you." The houeekeeper smiled. "I yes, you can always trust Mama. she said. It was daylight nowaa'the sun 7 was fast coming up. Mary Flemingas yonnie heart was full of excitement. • Thank God she was good for something in this world, but oh, her mother, and the great horrible light of the fire ! She °could uot Wait longer ; she stepped out of the room. and flew down stairs and knooked at the telegraph girl's little bedroom door in one of the lower cor- ridors., " Oh, come come qttick, Nelly," she iniplored. " AL what happened at „Dolton last night ; there wag au awful " What's the matter with you ?" asked the sleepy girl. " You are as gray as ashes ; have you been up all night ?" Yes, yes I Don't talk. Come quick." " Bathe office there won't be -open ys4t," said Nelly Perrin, looking &little rueful at the loss of her morning tap. Nevertheleess she hurried into her clothes,and starting off bravely, soon reached her desk at the office. Seating herself at the instrument, she said, impatiently : " Yam needn't drive me to pieces • " but after a, few brief clickings she suddenly looked surprised and listened in- tently to a long message. "The office in Dolton was burnt" e said gravely, "There was a great fire laannight. I get word by way of Harriaville. Almost the whole town was swept by flames -the shoe factories and churches and - business _mitten. Oh, I'm real sorry; Miss Fleming. I ltepe nothing happened to your house !" •But Mary had already gone, raoing up- stairs to tell Mary Arley the -bad newts, and the two poor children 'cried together and began their day's work with heavy hearts: Toward noon Mrs. Preston was GO much better that they dared to tell her, and to ask if there was no possible way to manage so that they could go home. Mrs. Preston's face looked pinched and pale on the pillow. " No, no don't think about it," said Mary Fleming affeotionately. " I know all about the people who are go- ingto-day and the new ones coming to take their places. Mother would send me word if she or father were hurt or anything. We'll see to our pitchers just the same as ever, won't we, Mary Arley ? Your house is far enough out of the village not -to be in much danger. Don't you worry, and I sure to be about the house to -mor- row," said Mrs. Preston ; " the doctor has been here again and sage so. And Mr. Dennis sent me word to let you, Mary Fleming, do the beak you can in my place to -day, and to send for him any minute you want him." Mary Fleming's cheekS grew crimson: What would her mother say if she knew that she was useful enough already in this great establishment to be put into Mrs. Preston's responsible piece even for a single day. I don't care who satin she is young !" Mr. Dennis had said. "Sheas the most able. and conscientious 'girl in the'house. Not mo quick as some, but if I mild 'have twenty such girls I should take a long breath mid think that it was a happy day for the hotel Mary Fleming felt all that day as if she T.rrt .

Even the worry abont the fire waa inch Ulla and unreal in her miad, with the hu ry and responsibility of the gteat infloW of new guests to the hotel. She went wit winged feet from room to room, direotin two or three girls here and doing somettit g herself as it ought to be done there, and ow flpding a few minutes to ask Mrs. Preston for adviee and orders. There were only ,ft few people in the hotel who knew much of Dolton, and they could learn noth ng more than the first news in the morning. Toward *upper time, when her oares were over, she put on a fresb, cool gingham dtese, it is always the best way to begin to reit to take off one's " tired elothes," and then she went out to watch for Johu Abbott. e It was his thy to Next morning early t ere oame a, short message to Mary Flemizig from Mr. DelMil that if she liked to go hame to Dolton for the -day there woulcl be Ino objection, pro- vided she could arrange for her work among she got up and went to see Mre.

She must net think about the work, either ; it should sal be managed,• and toe she must ot come back 'until early morning. The new ople in the corridors were wel- come guests, -very quiet and considerate, apparently, except one Or two. So off flew our friend, and an hour or two afterward Mary Fleming, feeling bewildered enough, was finding her way itemise the open , smok- ing space where the Dolton Home had stood,and all the Dolton shops and churches. She had heard on the way dawn that her father's house was saved -the fire came al- most to the next door ; but when she walk- ed up the little street, littered Mill with cinders and nuseellaneous heaps of house - furniture, and then caught eight of the house,and of the two green . pear trees that stood by it, and had unlatched the gate and walked up' the lit- tle side path, opened the kitchen , door and saw her mother, she was the most delighted, contented girl in the world ! They had never been ' separated so long before. They kissed and kissed each, other, forgetting to be restrained and undemons- trative. * " How womanly and wise you look to me I" said Mrs. Fleming, impuleively. -" rye been in a good school up there," mid Mary, smiling. " You don't know how good Mrs. Preston is ; I feel as if I were going to be learning off her all the time. ()h, there are so many things PYO been keeping to tell you ! But tell me how father is; and 'avant to know all about the " Haire you been keeping something to tell me about John aestbbott, I wonder ?" asked Mary's mother. .

But there'a plenty of time ahead to think of get - Yes of course," Mary spoke dutifully. But to b'e just past nineteen herself, and to have John within a week of his twentieth birthdity, seemed old enough to satisfy the most exacting: They had great plans for making themselves useful anal for making money apart before the time should come for being married ; but Mary no longer thought that a crowded country village was the only place in which to live. She had learned in these few weeks to feel at :home among the green fields and the hills, and John plans for getting a farm of his own just as soon as he could seemed the moat sensible plan in the woelda It was an inciting day in Dolton, or in what was left of the psior aittle town ; and Mary and•her mother -weat out and tried to find and to console some ofe their homeless neighbors.

Thet evening, after obi had refreshed her- self -With a long sleep in the late afternoon, and had had a quiet supper of bread and milk in her old childish fashion, she joined her father and mother, who were sitting on the door -steps.

" Fether," said Mary, suddenly, " aro these ,ar trees too large to move ?" " Yes ; I suppose they are," answered Mr. Fleming, turning to look at her with a smile. " You ought to know enough to we could have a -graft or some- thing," said Mary, " and a piece of the grope vine to carry away ; there are some things that I like about this house, if it is in the village 1 I was so sorry when I thought it was burnt When did any •of you me Aunt Hannah ?

I've learned one thing in this household of girls this summer, and that is if one comes down oross in the morning she can set all the rest of us by the ears. I used -to think 'twas other people's fault if I was cross ; but I have found out long ago that sometimes its my fault if others are. ' " Ail those things are so " replied John Ablbott soberly. Come, 'Mary, who do you think is stopping over at the farm this minute ?" " Why, don'e know," said IIlary, won- dering. " Its Aunt Hannah," said John. • " Mrs. Haines had alweys known her ; she happen- ed along last hight, and she says she wasn't very far from here, and sh‘e bad heard about the new hotel." " Why, the dear old thing ! Oh, John, do bring her over, and Mrs. Haines, too, and I'll show them round. Oh, Aunt Han- nah likes pretty things so much she'll have a beautiful time. take her to see my lovely Mrs. Duncsai in the east corner rooms. I told Mrs. Duncan about her one day, and all her pretty old-fashioned ways, and how she goes about the country, and her good sayings and all her funny stories ; she said she wished she coutd see her.' " I dare say I ma come," said John promptly. " 'Twould be such a treat for both of them. All the women folks think the hotel is a kind of a palace." " Of course it is," exclaimed Mary, " and I'll tell you one thing, John ; the people out of cities think just as much in their turn of knowing country people and seeing how they dcf things. It maxes 'ern have a great deal better time up here to know somebody on the farms, and be asked in and taken notice of ; it really does. Yon know Aunt Haunah always says that there ain't but a few kinds of people in the world,but the_y're put in all isorts of different places. Ob, I do think its really beautiful to be here ; and I lost all that time when I was growing up lust because I hadn't found out how to en- joy myself.

I have more faith in Dr. Wardts`Blood and NOM) Pills than anything else a have ever used. Since using them I have recommended them to several of my friends who were troebled as I was, and now they are in splendid health. I had been a sufferer, like a great many other women, with a disease peculiar to my sex. I tried everything I could read or think about to help me, but was getting wore instead of better. My condition was terrible -I was losing flesh and color and my friends. were alarmed. I, consulted 'a doctor of this town and he said I would never get better ; that I would always be sicklyend delicate, and that medicines were of little use to me. Hearing what Dr. Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills had done for °there, I de- termined to try them myself, and to -day I weigh one hundred and forty pounds, while before I weighed only one hundred and eighteen pounds, andimow I have a constitution that is hard to beat.

Book of Information free: - The Value of a Smile. Many years ago the late Dr. Shippen, of Philadelphns, left his house in early morn- ing and was hurrying down the street when he noticed a singalar and fetecious looking man, whose gaze was fastened upon him. With instinctive politeness ond bonhomie he smiled, raised hie bat and passed- on, when suddenly he heard a shot. Turning, he found that the stranger had just left his home with the insane purpose of .killing the fiat man he met. He was the first man, but his absolute courtesy had put the man off his guard, and the next passerby had caught the bullet intended for him. That smile and bow had saved bis life. When the country was a century younger and the Indian was yet in the laud, a gen- tleman upon the then frontier was hunting with friends, got separated from them, and completely lett 1his way. Every effort to retrace Ms steps led him still farther into the wildernese., and night overtook him in a dense foreat. Overcome with fatigue, he lay down under a tree and slept profeundly. In the morning be awoke with a start, with that indescribable feeling as though some one was looking at him, and, glancing up, he saw that he WRY surrounded by hostile Indianarand that the leader of the band, in war paint and feathers, was -bending over him in no amiable mood: He took in the situation at a glance, knew his immediate danger and had no means of averting it. Neither did he understand a word of their language. But no was aelf- possessed, knew the universal tlangue.ge of nature, and believed that even under war paint and feathers " a man's a man. for a' 'that." He fixed his clear, bold eyes on the Indian and -smiled. Gradually the fierce- ness passed away from the eyes above him, and at last an answering smile eame over the face. Both were men, both were brothers, and he was saved. The savage took him under his protection, brought him to a wigwam, and after a few days restored him thins friends. Courage, self -command and tact had gained the day. • TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY. Take Lexative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

" It is an old established custom amongst many railway companies to give distinctive names to their principal trains, which are not only peculiarly suggestive to the travel- ling public, but appropriate characteristice of their peculiar runs. " In the old country, for instance, is the "Irish Mail " and the "Flying. Scotchman" is the only name by which the fast express between London and Edinburgh has been known for years. In the United States the practice is widespread, and the "'Empire State," " Cannon Bail,' " Black Diamond" and the "Fast • Mail" are amongst the many titles which are familiar to travellers. In Canada, Nova Scotia has the " Flying Bluenose" and New Brunswick the " Flying Yankee," which speeds between St. John and Boston. The latest train christening is that of the Canadian Pacific's westbound trans -contin- ental express, which is now known as the Gold Train "-a peculiarly appropriate name, for since the beginning of the great rush to the Klondike; this train, daily crowded with gold seekerse frequently pulls outle two, three, four 'and even au many as five sections. Wiadsor street stetion presents an unusually animated scene now-atdays in consequence, all sorts aod conditions of • men, *omen and children gathering to witness the departure of the " Gold Train" and to bid good-bye and wish good luck to the fortune hunters who rep- resent nearly every nationality and all wallas in life.

The Pay Of Trained Nursees. " The average sum paid tO pupil nurses is ten dollars a month for the first year, and fourteen dollars a month during the second 'year, writes Elizabeth Robinson Scovil on The Life of a Trained Nurse," in the May Ladies' Home Journal. " The remuneration varies in different institutions. In a few training schools the nurses are paid nothing. After graduation head nurses in hospital wards receive from twenty to thirty dollars per month • superintendents from five hun- dred to twelve hundred dollars a year. Dh- tricb nurses, who are employed by various churches, societies, and sometimes be pri- vate benevolence, to work among the- sick poor, receive about the same salary as a head nurse in a hospital, exclusivead board.
