| UNCOMMONLY COMMON. ey, ~ | Robertine had finished cleahing her gloves, and was putting away the bits of old Hannel and the “deodorized’’ fluid, whose faint hatefulness she de- | clared she detested. “It's quite as bad ‘ as'‘cbmmon benzine,” she said to her mother, who was busy cooking a spirit= uélle sort of supppron the gasoline stove in the other room, : | They leased the entire house, a twostory and basemient briek, rather cen-: tral‘?j{ lodated, and - relet ,unfumished'i rooms or'suites in such a manner as to: clear their own rental while reserving' the double parlogs and the joys of proprietorship. % L They were very eémfogtably arranged. In the evening, Rob¢rtine could make. herself pretty, close the folding-doors, run her ftingers |lightly over Lfle..keys of the upright piano, and feel eqi#al to the entertaining of thie. most eligible i;e otlemien friends—even Wilfred Wales, UB(] I 1 some respects ‘she was. moreat ease with this gentleman for company than with any one else. Not because he was unusually handsome-—heyond the frequency: of his new clothes—or taleptefl, or witty; not because of any subtle eharm in "his conversation, like that of poer Dick Ethel, whon she had known so long, and who, she was foreed to admit, would always remain the same visionary enthusiast and Bohemian. Poor Dick! If he would only quit trying to make a living witl his pen, and become a practical member of so‘clet{—ah tailor, or shoem?ker, ‘or something honest! No, but when Wilfred Wales was calling Robertine knew . there would be. 1o after remarks from her mother, that good lady being, at such'times, content to retire to peaceful dredims and a book-case bedstpad, leaving the young pe'oi)lfe undisturbed. Mr. %’V ales was- a moneyed .young man, with further ‘‘expectations,” and Robettine felt it \voulc{' “be the. merest folly to discourage his attentions. She knew herself thoroughly; knew all her disadvantages and (Lfi herlittle attractivenesses. .She had sized herself up long ago as a moderately pretty brunette,who could sing and play passably, read a,French novel” without the dietionary, write: dashing sort of letter, and dance all the newest fancics. She never forgot that she had neither fortune nor ?amil_’yu—é. blue lookout for any girl of twenty; that she”had talent in. no particular direction; that she ‘was i)hysio:dly too delicate for continuous abor, besides being unfitted, by-'ambi-tion, for the life of a working-woman. Yet sometimoes she-felt sick of it all—sick of doing lawyers’.copying at home, and addressing wrappets by the thodsantl, and:scheming how to bést spend the money so earned and “hew to construct the prettiest costume in which to | attend theater or promenade concert with Mr. Wales.. (Often she would far rather have gone saufitering in the fiark, clad in her Iglain; brown “Motherubbard,”” ‘with Richard Ethel beside. her, and his pleaging fantasies.) sl But what could ‘she do to support herself? *You dan’t be aclerk in any store,’) said her mother, *‘it takes away a girl’s social posdition.”’ : o ' «If she has any,” . said Robertine, ironleally, = e R e i

Meanwhile they had got on very well without touching the insurance money recelved at the death of Robertine's lamented father; which was but a small sum at best; and which ‘the mother would need for hdrself when once the daughter was married. -. By “Robertine shook out three pair of evening gloves, and said musingly: “Now I'm ready .to go anywhere if only some one invites me.”’ .o . : ; “If I were you' 1 wouldn’t 2o with anytjody but Wales,’’ admonished her mother. *“lf he sees you running around with .eommon tugs. like Digfi Ethel, he'll ship you!”” Mrs. Ferris was often more fOrc{bl'e than elegant, and always unconsciods 'of 'na‘dfltflfi' tendencies. . She was a thin, nérvous woman, with.an gxtraordinary contémpt for the hoi W%She ‘was often heard tolsay that she had*been 'stru ‘nf._'fof years to keep her head 'above water, as also that of her deceased husband.

Robertine eoloted. | I never go with any one I'm ashamed of,”’ she said, indignantly; ‘‘and as for Mr. Wales, the ‘ shipping’ - process may be conducted by the other party.” 0, np doubt you feel able to manage your own affairs. Sgme folks, when they have a little stredk of luck, act as if it. would never be ‘ywith them -’ closing with a pet an grasis. “Now, mother, what.is the useof such talk? Let us eat our supper in peace.”’ And they did; after which, Robertine, having ad&ustefl her toilet, went to the front' windows jand drew the curtaing back, admitting the evening” breeze.'

of view of the matter. I mnm a rich hdsband. - You see I belong to a ! w?

I must have a respectable-looking husband, with a suspicion of brains. Then, ‘too, while ishe is about it, why ean’t a girl hgp%qn;s fo fall 'in love with a man who has ‘money?

- She was moved, and remained silent until the sound of her mother in the other foom seemed to give her tongue new impetus. - : : L *‘Ah, Richard, ‘Art'is long and life is fleeting?”. 'We have no time to be great or to foster grand thoughts. | 5%{, ¢ven you and I might be silly enough fo fall in love witfi each other, but it wouldn’t do, would it? O, no,: it weuld be ridiculous—mad! The very last thing'on earth!”’ Gaa ke

“The very last thing on! earth,’”” he repeated, quietly. They were not looking at each other now, yet they were both strangely pale. S ““The very {ast!” she said, recovering herself after a moment; then abruptly: ‘“Richard; I want to tell you -some little things—confidential, you know, strictly confidential,”” it “““Yes,” he said, vacantly. _ ‘“Richard, this is. midsummer; but I stuppose you know people wear flannels in winter-time —ladies do.”’ :

- Her seeming irrelevancy might at other times have startled him; now he only sighed inquiringly:

. “Well, last winter—you remember how cold it was—how many - flannels do you suppose mother and I had apiece?”’ G “Three, perhaps,” he ventured, wearily. » : “No, indeed; we had three between us. This kept us washing one twice a week, - which was tiresome, besides wearing out the garments. Fancy having one such article of clothing and taking it off at bed-time to wash it that it may dry by morning. Isn’tthe thought abominable??”? : . ‘

The long, quiverhlll% breath that he drew smote her painfully, as she felt that, through her, his heart must ache a long time, perhaps forever. s She could not look at him. He rose ‘without speaking. Perhaps he could not trust his voice. sl il

“You are .not going, Dick? But perhaps you haven't been to supfer.” \ “I ‘don’t know,’” he. falbg:eq. “I must go and finish some work.: ; I—l hope you will not do- anything: hastily. Robertine, remember-vrcmexlllfi)ér I am your friend—always.”” Then he went out and awav. e

Mus. Ferris slid thé doors ajar and entered. ! 3

“Gone at last? she asked, glancing through the. window “at the tall form crossing the street, with slow, ~ dispirited gait. <lf he doesn’t look common!™ .. . e

. Robertine had gone to the piano. ' “Mother,” she said,-impatiently, «if Maj‘c:{ Drummond - proposes again you'd better marry him. ~ He's uncommon enough to suit you—especially his temper.? . Rt aele She could have sobbed aloud, ,she so hated herself. She fancied Richard ascending to his poor room ' across the way-—his gray, cheerless, ~]§atheticgroom —and sitting down uncomforted amony his‘'manuscripts. . She could see his pale face, his sad, brown eyes. She hated “herself, and her mother, and Wilfred ‘Wales, and all the cruel, bitter world! . She tried a strain of " Mendelssohn’s music to socthe and:strengthen her, and her mother spoke, as if reminded: ““The piano tent is due to-morrow, Roberting. Don’t let me forget; they are.very exacting.’’ f o :

Robertine changed to fierce opera melodies, and immediately Mr. {)Vil-‘ fred Wales:arrived. - Mrs. Ferris had made her escape and closed the foldingdoors. . et e S

‘1 wag thinking of you,” said Robertine, sweetly, and speaking the truth. «0f me?P Is that so? Then T'm 'f'l:xd.” He. pressed herhand with all a over’s fondness.

Nor was he really so objectionable—a well-built man with a prepossessing countenance and a frank, “easy speech. He never romahced, nor paused for exactness, nor unfolded quaint discoveries, nor indul%ed in ben-trovato poesy, as poor Dick Ethel was wont.

- He was ‘a cheerful caller and ‘often made her Jaugh; stillghere were times when she could as well Have yawned. (Poor Dick Ethe! might. have talked all night and never wearied her.) : ‘“Take ' the rocking=chair,”” she begged, ““and 1 will sit right here on the sofa. We can both see the street and feel the breeze.” i

Robertine was mazried in late October, and wore the white satin. and orange-blossoms over:a heart that was

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

PROPOSED STATE CONVENTION ° OF THOSE IMPORTANT : . OFFICIALS. : . o 0 {mdianapolis Jourmal) ‘. | . The County Commissioners of Marfon county have invited those of the ether counties of the State to meet in this city on the 15th of April next to form a State organization of County Commissioners. The movement is an important one, and deserves the en‘couragement of the press, - The late Governor Wright used to -Bay that the people were more inter‘eqted in the selection of County Cow:missioners than in Congressmen. “However paradoxical this may seem, it is nevertheless true. County Commissioners fix the county tax levy and disburse the taxes. In this county the sum thus collected and disbursed is an immense qne, and in other counties of the State it is not an insignificant amount. This money should only be paid out in accordance with the law, That it is oftem paid out without the law’s authority is well known to every oune at all conversant with county business. Many of the ecounty boards and, indeed, many or the higher courts are lax im their obligations to the people when it comes to the distribution of .public money. They make many allowances not authorized by either the letter or spirit of the law. Where is the law to pay for the officers’ ice bills out of the county treaslury? Where is the law authorizing money to be taken from the county treasury to pay pages for dancing atsendance upon honerable judges? Where 18 the law that allows the sheriff fees for writs served by bailiffs who- are paid by the county? There is no law for any auch allowances, yet the people’s money is taken every day for jusu sueh things. -it is a shame |and an outrage that such illegal allowances should he made, and it is to be hoped that the State organization of Counly Commissioners will do something to stop them. The law requires a sheriff of a esun'ty to attend the sittings of the board jof County Commissioners; but it has been -the custom in this county until receuntly, and may bs still, froméught we know, in many counties, to pay a bailiff out of the county treasury to do this work. Every dollar so paid is illegally taken from the treasury, for the sole benefit of the sheriff. Insoms counties it-is the custom of the County Clerk to make separate certificates for each allowance to a juror, in order that he may eharge the county illegal fees. In this und similar ways large sums have been taken from the peo ple to enrich county officials. Such | abuses muat stop, and it is to be hoped |that measures will be inaugurated and carried out by the State convention of County Commissioners to stop them. | The people are willing to pay liberal fees to county and State offieers, but |they want the fees regulated by law. No fess should bs paid any one except |in accordance with the plain provi- ' sions of the law.
