CHAPTER I.

HOW HE WAS DRIVEN THERE. "Thou'll have to do the same as t'rest on us . What call hast thou to set tbysen up, a man wi' only lain day's wage to look tilt? To look at the©, folk would think tho could pocket-out t' National iJebt at live minutes' notice." "Nay, none so, mate. Times has been pretty slack with most on us of late." "Then what fool thou must be when a bit o' extra work turns up not to take it." "Alt!" Interjected another dust-be-^ritned mechanic, who with bare and folded arm* was leaning, half-sitting, half-fctandintc, against hi* (anvil "and there'n another mouth to rill at your pl«c«, old chap, since yesterday, I hear tell."

Yen—n little lass the marrer of her mother!" nai'l the man addressed, his teeth gleaming whitely as he smiled. He wan a line-looking fellow—tall, strong and powerful, with good-humored, blue grey oyes whirling under abroad forehead and relieving by their brightness the plitinni'Hs of the other features,and tho weight of the square-out jaw. Me was eating his breakfast of bread and bacon ina primitive fashion, cutting piecoa off the very thick sandwich with his pocketknife, and then, transfixing them on tho blade, he *jearod Uiom in his mouth and every now and then refreshed himself likewise with a drink from a tin bottle, which was standing on the forge to keep tli*! tea it contained hot. "Come thou in to-night, Aaron," ho continued, looking up at his mate who had last addressed him, "and thou shalt see her. 1 was thinking hap|»en thou'd stand for her when the misses gets about." "Well, lads, I's« none again' being sponsor to t' little lass. 1 reckon I sh an't have so many sins to auswor for but what they may go along wi' my own without making much dltVer." "Thou knows thou's nobbut joking. Thou doesn't think that." "I do, though, old chap," answered his friend, nodding his largo head, covered with red hair, vigorously, attd then winking a*ido to tueir companion the first speaker.

A shrill whistle rang through tho vast place and In another moment tho men had pock' ''»d their pipes, Aa'ott and Stephen took up their hammers Jerry turned to tho forge. The thunder of blow*, tho resounding clang of the struck metal, and tho rush attd roar of tho machinery made the very air of tho workship* pubato and throb with sound, l-'or hours it went, m. Tho sweat poured from Aaron's lace and tho muscles rose and fell in grout binds across {Stephen's shoulders, showing their quick working through hi-* damp'shirt. There was no time for speaking now. They worked with a will. "Though I *ay it what shouldn't," sit id Aaron, in "a short pause, as he straightened himself lor a rest, "there's no two ehajw in liauworlh's' can boat vou ami me, mate, at tv spell of piecework. Well, luilf-work is what I can't abide, nor thee neither, mate."

Ktgltl there, Aaron, so here goes." Ami again the regular rhythm of tho biows rung out. Once nvr© the whistlfc Hounded. 'The hum of labor ceased and the workmen ctowded towr.rd the p:»ywindow of the ojh-v. "Now don't be a fo.d, lad whispered

-ay, hit's where the whispered Stephen,

As each tn.m had bis little pile of money pushed toward him and passed on, some were spoken a few words to and answered "All right," or giving a short nod of acqule^^'nee, j^assed on. Aaron's turn hail arrived and Stephen was close behind him. The clerk hardly raised his head as he said: "The anvil must work to-morrcftv You'll be here?

Aaron gave a grunt which might be taken for "Yes," and then Stephen was there. i'oii would hear what I said asked the cashier. "Yes but couid not we three work a night instead, till nigh twelve to-night, and again from half-past tweive on, sir? We'd prefer that."

Tho clerk turned questioningly toward a gentleman who, fitting in the office with his hands in his pockets and his legs stretched out, wan poising his chair on Us back legs and gasiug into the tire. "What am 1 to say. sir?" asked tho caxhier. "K.h! what!" cried the master, letting his chair come down suddenly on the floor and fixing his keen eyes on Stephen. "What doe* he waut? "To work over-night, sir, In«tw»d of on Sun lay. He savs his two mates, he thinks, will be willing to join him, and he'll make full time."

Not condescending to notice the clerk's explanation, the master, springing to bis feet, cried: "Come in here. Steve."

And Stephen entered the countinghouse, cap in hand. "Now, my lad. what nonsense Is this?" demanded Mr. Hanwortb. "Yoo know wrtl enough how slack trade has been, and I think yon ought to be glad Hanworth's got the ojder. It's good for you MI well as me." "So I am, sir, 1 am sure." "And vou know it has to be executed to time*" "Yew, sir." "Then do you mean to tell me you won't work on Sunday*" 'Til make it up folly, sir. I know roy two mate* will come, and we'll give you foil satisfaction but I cannot break the Sabbath. I never bare, air, and 1 hope you won't ask St now." "Shut up!" cried Mr. Hanworth. angrily. Do you think I'm going to he pmiched at by any hand here. Are yon going to acvomuaodate me are you not*

Stephen stood silent and then raised his eyes and looked full in his master's face. sile to his lipe, Mr. Hanwortb sail

slowly:

If you won't accommodate me you may go," and then turned his back. Stephen waited a moment or two and then left the office, passing out into the now empty foundry yard.

In the street he found Aaron, linger ing. ••Well, lad?" "I've got the sack!"

Aaron would bav© said some word of consolation, but, glancing at the sorrow stricken face, beside him, he forbore and left Stephen to walk home alone As he did so he did not feel much like a hero! A man may do the right thiug but those know nothing of such strug gles who represent that, therefore, peaoe —nav, joy, will flood his soul. Nothing of the kind. There is only one way into the kingdom, and that way is strewn with thorns, and the thorns pierce the feet which press them yes, sometimes they wound so deeply that they even lame, and it is with hesitating, bleeding footstep that the traveler presses sor rowfully—it may be regretfully, on ward. Visions of victory fade away, and all that the worn and wearied soul dares to hop® for is strength to struggle forward, and maimed and broken-hearted to reach the goal some day, and then rest.

Stephen, miserable and sad, grew more low-spirited as he neared bis home. He did not fear having to listen to reproach es, but he trembled as he thought of the look he would receive. It was with slow footstep that he eutered the cottage aud ascended the stairs to the neat room above, where wife and child awaited him.

With a bright countenance and shining eves Mary looked up into her busbatuf's face, and then, before he spoke a word she stretched out her white hand and took his fondly. "Dear lad, sit down and tell me what is the matter." "A great deal, wife. I've got the sack."

Certainly, as he spoke, the face he loved so well became downcast. Mary cast a frightened glance toward the little bundle by her side, but the next instant she regained her confidence and said cheorfully: "Never mind you are sure to get on somewhere else. Thou are a first-class hand, Steve. There are plenty inore works in this big town beside Hanworth's. Have any more got turned off? Is work slacker?" "No it's better, and I'm the only one out "Thou the only one? Tell me all about it dear Steve."

And then he rolated his story, and as he spoke, his wife's face grew as quiet and as settled as his own, and when he concluded with the remark: "It's very hard on you and tho little lass, Mary, but what could I do?" she answered: "Nothing but what thou has done. My Steve would have to grow a different man from what he is afore he'd put us above his duty to God. Never fear for us away will be made. Kneel down and pray a bit, lad!"

And when, in a few low-murmured heart-felt sentences her husband hac done so, she fell quietly asleep holding his hand in hers. Afraid to disturb her he sat still, thinking of many things, and his thoughts were not sad, for, now tho first shock of losing his work at such a critical time was past, he felt convinced that ho should have little difficulty in getting another place. He knew himself to be a tlrst-rate workman, and that his character as a steady and reliable man stood high, and was pretty well known amongst those to whom, on Monday, he must apply for employment, and ho thought with some satisfaction on tho fact that from his apprenticeship ho had always remained at llnnwotth's. "Yes, I never was a ••hap for running about I've never worked any whore else, and though it's hard to be turned out of the old place, being so long there will help me to anew one."

So he sat quietly resting until the gathering twilight rendered all things indistinct, an 1 the fitful glow of the fire threw long, fantastic shadows on the ceillngof the little chamber.

A quiet, restful Sabbath followed, and on Monday morning, very early, with ho|»et'ul, cheerful heart, Stephen sallied forth to seek new employment.

CIIAI'TKR II.

W A E I O OK I Fot THERE. Mr. Hanwortb usually—as a respectable custom—attended church oti Sunday morning. There was a feeling of satisfaction in accompanying his elegant wife and well-dressed children there. lie did not think much why he did go, nor when lie arrived a^ church did he think at all :iloui worship or praise. He stood up aud sat down in the right places—he did not kneel, of course: so for as the neighbors saw, he was sufficiently devout, but if some unknown power had obliged Mr. llanivorth to reveal himself to public gaze, his human fellow-wor-shipers.'as' weil

the "cloud of witness

es" would have known that church-time was a time of busy business—a quiet time for speculation, investment, invention, calculation and plans—anything but devotion to this seemingly correctly religious man.

Mr. Hanworth was "put out" more than he liked to own bv Stephen's resolute bearing, and the little incident in bis counting-house, and the steadfast look in his workman's eyes, kept recurring with disagreeable distinctness to his ineutal vision. Coming out of church he met, as he frequently did, snother iron-maater living in the same direction, they usually walked home together. talking various little business matters over. To-day Mr. Hanworth mentioned Stephen's obstinacy. "Just *hows how disobliging those fellows can l»e. Man and boy, he's worked about the place for twenty year*. Detestable imoudeuce! He's only one of a class. Couininstion is ouronlv remedy. Aire you coming to the master's meeting to-morrow "Yes. r»f course." "You'll mention this little circumstance?" "No. I think not. I don't want to injure the fellow." "Then I shall. Fine day, isn't it? good-bye!"

The next day the "little circumstance" was mentioned, and called forth many indignant and contemptuous comments. Nearly all the gentlemen present were self-made men. And yet amongst no set of aristocratic land-owners could more determined counsels of class (their class, that is supremacy be beard. One benevolent old man did dare, certainly, to remark that this did not seem to him a case of insubordination, but of coneoience. and that every man had aright to his Sabbath, but this gentleman was treated with scant attention.

And there the matter was dropped. But not end, as Stephen found to his cue: next day.

All in went from t.trade bad been

onday,

foundry to foundry, dull and was just beginning to revive, no new workmen were required, andj he met with refusals at all save one5 place there he was told a foreman who

So a bitter time of trial began for three long weeks, Stephen wandered about, constantly asking for work. When he bad penetrated iuto every workshop and foundry-yard in the vast town where he had been born, and always had lived, and met invariably with disappointment, he began by his wife's advice to travel to the neighboring smaller towns.

Frequently he walked very long distances on vague rumors ol employment, which always turned out to be false, for the iron trade, which was beginning to revive in the great town, was still stagnant in the outlying districts. Constant refusals crushed even his brave and trustful spirit, and he went now, at the end of a fortnight, on his daily search with so despondent an air, that misfortune seemed to accompany him and cling naturally to his side.

Stephen tried each evening, as be neared his house, to put on the cheerful air he did not feel, and enter his home briskly, but one look at Mary's anxious face and large questioning eyes, and all his sham brightness vauisbed.

The couple had only been able, on account of the long bad times, to make but a very small provision against a rainy day.

Through all the years which have passed since then, Stephen looks back upon that week as the most miserable of his life, and sometimes even now he wonders how he got through it, and owns with humble gratitude, that nothing short of the sustaining hand of his God and the patient, uncomplaining, cheerful love of his wife prevented him from utterly despairing.

Ho had been everywhere He knew the uselessnoss of applying where he bad been already refused, and yet it was intolerable to remain in the house doing nothing but watch, as he could not help watching his pale feeble wife and helpless little baby. Out in the streets there seemed more room to move. He avoided the hours when be should meet his fellow-workmen returniug from that employment to gain a share in which would have been tho greatest earthly happiness to himself. He wandered about fighting a sore battle. Few persons passing the man on the street in his unused working dress, and with that look of misfortune hanging like a mist about him, would have given him credit for being a hero, and little did he feel like one himself. And yet each night as he knelt and prayed for that dai'y bread which seemed so long in coming, he also offered a thanksgiving for having passed one more day without having yielded to sin, for every waking hour of the day bad been passed in fighting temptation. A voice had been constantly urging him,with sometimes such terrible vehemence it seemed as though no denial was possible— "Go to Mr. Hanworth, say you are sorry, and you will work on Sunday when be finds it needful. He will take you back. The wages are good, and Mary aud the child will be provided for. Go at once here you are just passing the gates." "No, no not even for them. Lord, help me to bo true to Thee, and to do what I am sure Is right," he would cry in his heart and then with hurrying feet would hasten past the well-known walls.

Saturday night came. There a question Stephen must ask, and ho tried twice orthrico to say the words, before they would form the very simple sea tence. "Have we any money left, Mary know you've had coals to get." "A shilling, dear lad: but don't be low-hearted wo've three big loaves and a bit of cheese aud some tea and sugar— enough to put us over Monday. Keep up thy heart, Stephen our Lord's sure to mako a way for us."

Stephen groaned as he buried his face in his bands. So the third week ended.

CHAPTER III.

WHAT HE FOUND THERE.

Another Sabbath had como round,and perhaps, of all the sorrow-ladou sot us in the great congregation assembled in the time and smoke blackened old parish cbftrch, none carried a heavier heart than the workingman who knelt with bowed head and passionately clasped hands in the shadow of the farthest pillar.

Stephen was sitting silently by the fire that afternoon, aud Mary,'singing a hymn, was trying to quiet the child to sleep as she rocked it to and fro in her arms, when the door opened and Aaron came in. "Well, old chap, are you getting on middling "No, not at all I can't get a chance to go to work." "Ay, but that's bad You see, Steve, it's gotten Out why Hanworth sacked thee. Have you tried old Mr. Wilson? He's of thy own way of thinking." "Ay, and I should have got a job, maybe: but they've not work for their own old hands." "I'm sorry for you, Steve. I've wished many a time since I been man enough to do t' same. All these three Sundays I vebeen fair miserable.and I've thougnt such a sight of thee. I thought to myself to-day, directly I've got washed I'll go and see Steve."

Have you been working every Sunday since?" "Ay, that we hov and now, whenever ft suits Hanworth, we shall have to do it again. He comes down for an hour in t' afternoon, looking so clean, and with a flower in his coat. It fair rouses me. But what is a chap to do

'OIJOV

God, rather than nian." Ste

phen said the words sadly,and as though speaking to himself. "Ah, it*s well enough for thee," Aaron began, and then be stopped suddenly, for hecaugbt sight of Mary's face, and her eves were full of tears. She rose hastily, and began nervously moving about. Stephen looked up also.

You'll stop, Aaron, and have a cup of tea with us? We can yet afford to give a friend that." "Yes, do, Aaron," echoed Marv.

Here, Steve, hold baby,will you? while get it ready." SKepben took the little creature carefully—he was not much used to holding babies in his arms but be bad hardly received his little daughter when she set up a pitiful cry. He rocked himself backwards and forward*, holding the baby closely to him, and tiring to hush it but in vain the more be rocked the more she cried.

Mary who had gone Into tbe cellar to fetch tbe bread, ran hastily up. "What ever's tbe matter?* said Stephen, taming belpkssaly toward his wife. "I never beard it go on like this afore." "You've run pin Into it! Hare,

needed and received help to the utmost of their power, and many unusual expenses had come to be paid during the last month, so the little savings had dwindled rapidly away, and it was with a feeling akin to despair that Stephen, on the Monday in bis third week, was obliged to go to the Savings Bank and withdraw their last pound.

give me hold of her I'll soon put it straight." The baby ceased to cry, and remained quite happy on her father's kuees till tbe poor meal was spread. Then, though Mary and Aaron talked cheerfully together, Stephen became quite sileut, and when tea was over, and they drew their chairs around tbe hearth, his thoughtful gaze turned to his little child, peacefully slumbering in her wooden cradle, ana be became absorbed apparently in contemplating her small face. Suddenly be exclaimed:

Yes, that's bow it could be done." "What done?" "Why,I know how I could make a pin that wouldn't hurt." "Then do it, lad," cried Aaron. "Lots of the women folks would buy them ay, and men too/ifor naught drives a man out of himself like a crying bairn." "But I can't do it." "For why?" "Because our money's done, and we have naught even to buy pin-wire." "Here, I lend thee it. Will ten shillings tit thee?" "Ay, live shillings will, and plenty too, and tbank you, mate." "Naj',|take ten shillings you are kindly welcome."

After that a cloud seemed lifted from the party, and when Aaron left at nine o'clock,after again partaking'of bread and cheese, he thought, as lie strolled borne, he had seldom spent so happy an evening, and found himself wishing he had a wife, too, and home of his own.

The early dawn was hardly flushing the sky atJove the crowded roofs when Stephen the next day awoke, and he was the earliest customer the wire-seller had that morning.

Very diligently and happily he worked. Mary even heard him whistling and singing at intervals and before dinner-time he called her. "Wife, como hither here aro some pins finished. You must bave tbe first, my joy."

And he held toward her half a handful of the now universally known "safetypins." "Will they do?." Stephen added, rather anxiously.

She looked at them, this first judge of bis invention, examining them minutely, and then cried "Do? Yes, grandly!" She hastily laid them down and turned to the cradle, and without any apparent reason picked up therefrom the babv, covering it« tiny face with kisses. '*Afy little bairn, my lamb! I sadly feared for thee but father can keep us both, now." And the mother burst i« to tears. "Why, Marv, what hast thou been thinking of ?,r "That I must got mother to take the little one and go back to service till times mended." "I thought, wife, we promised for better or worse. We must always stick together.

She looked pitifully up into his kind face. "But, Steve, Isoon there would have been no other way, though it would have been the very worst that could have como. We are bound to be honest, thou knows, lad." "Tbank God!" reverently responded her husband,"He has not let us be tried above "what we could stand. Aslongas He spares thee,everythingelse I can bide to lose."

But henceforward it was no tale of loss that their lives told. Two days later, with a workbox of his wife's filled with various sizes of the new pin, Stephen sallied forth^nd visited some of the largest draoers' ahops in town. He returned in two" hours with a handful off silver and an empty box, and set to work at making mora and, although Aaron joined him tho following ^week, tho demand could not be met.

Safety pins became the rage, and Stephen soon had no difliculty in obtaining money to patent his invention, nor in opening a small manufactory which presently grew to such large dimensions that Aaron finds the salary he receives as manager, a very comfortable provision, inaoed, for the wife and little childreu he has now tho honor of supporting.

Stephen is able to surround his Mary with every indulgence, oven his warm love can wish to supply hor with, and perhaps the reason why he remains so unassuming and humble a man, though now a rich one, is found in tho fact, that ho acutely feels that all his prosperity has come to him—a most unex|M3cted gift—from following resolutely the will of God. It was because he was at his wits'end for bread that he was led to think out and find what proved to boa blessing both to himself and family, and to ten&of thousands of mothers and their babes. God's ways are sometimes rough, but they always lead to what isjbright and good.

We need hardly add that Sunday labor is unknown at the "Safety-pin Works.'

DUTY TO OTHERS. CflAMHEKSucno, July 25,1875. This is to let the people know that I, Anna Maria Krider, wife of Tobias Ivrider, am now past seventy-four j*ears of age. My health has been verv bad, for some years past I was troubled with weakness, bad cough, dyspepsia, great debility and constipation of the bowels. I was so miserable I could hardly eat anything. I heard |of Hop Bitters, and was resolved to try them, I have only used three bottles, and I feel wonderfully good, well and strong again. My bowels are regular, my appetite good, and cough all gone. 1 feel so well that I think it my duty to let the people know, as so many knew how bad I was, what tbe medicine has done for me, so they can cire themselves with it.
