Mr. Chan dler, though a hard-working man, had not jet amassed even a small fortune; and there vera alrcadv enoueh Youne mouths to W 9 make the filling of them with bread and butter a subject of constant thought and labor. It is no small affair to jr-ovide a family of six with the necessaries of life tha one item of tobacco for the father alone amounts to a considerable sum, not to men Hon minor matters. As for Mr. Chandler, life had long svo resolved lit elf into one endless wasting and ironic e and bakior: and cleaning day, with maVice and mendinsr and takice care of babies as a sort of -knitting work," to fill up the odd minutes. There seemed no room in the little house f jr another, no time to attend to its wants, no means to supply its wants, no means to supply its needs. NevertheWs, welcome or unwelcome, Out fron the shora of the great Uskuowu, Bliud. and wllliu. and aloue lato the light of day," casta the frail little body, burdened with ax deatules shuman soul. and! with th first, feeble wail of cree tins for tho mysterious Life which bd been forced upon her, Jennie found her way into tha mother a heart to go no more out forever. And, as the months went.n. fathers, brothers and sisters all united in rrocouacinz her the sweetest baby in tha world. II er first tooth, her first step, her first word, were household events', received with due wonder and admiration. Then a little brother took her place as pet and plaything of the household, and Jennie was merely one of the children." She had pretty little rufilsd dresses, and white aprons, and tucked skirU; Mrs Chandler always managed to keep her children as stylishly dressed as any of their clavmstes. Because Mr. Chandler was a clerk on . . . . I fifty dollars a month was no reason why the family should not keep up appearances. Mr. Monroe, over the way, was a well-to-do merchant; Jlr. Smith, next door, owned a large amount of real estate; was a banker; their wives all kept cmpe tent help in the household, besides employ ing seamstresses at pleasure. Cut that makes no difference to me. said Mrs. Chandler, with spirit, "my chil dren shall drees as well as their playmates, as far as 1 am able to go. UI course we can't buy as expensive material as some of our neighbors do, and that makes it all the more necessary that I should take a little pains in making up." Ot course with to much work on her hatds, Mrs. Coandler could not spare time to spend in a leisurely way with her chil dren time to read story books, and take walks, and play gases, and listen to their fo lUh plans. J ecme us d to come into the house sometimes with an old bird's nest; or a bunch of meadow flowers, picked with very short tern, and huddled t gether in a queer, childish way; rr a lot of dandelion curls. What are von bringing ttat stuff in here for?" her mother would exclaim sharp ly. 4When I have ju6t put the room in order, you are sure to come in with some trumptry or other. Take it away, quiikl You children worry the life out of met .Pretty looking house you'd make ofit!"' Then the child used to worry her mother with questions: "What do they make ".MrtaVA Vw la Ss4 AMT 9 .Stl tft A 4 VAOS I 9 T E JUaiV MVS?lV V U St V 1VUJ1U w I VCO AUS S What makes the bleed be to red when we cut us?" ''How does the water get up into the sky before it rains?' It her mother had stopped to answer any of these silly questions, there is no telling how long Jennie would have kept on; and there was cake to be made for tea. and Alice's white dress to iron, and Neddie's pants to mend, and some of the canned fruit was 'hurting," and the parlor (curtains needed washing clearly there was enough to do without listening to a chid's cbatur. Do keep still!' she would sry to Jennie, I can't work when you are talking to me. I wish you wouldn't bother so. Run away and fplay." And Jennie obeyed. Kittie Gray and Mamie Black were ever so much nicer to talk to than mamma was. And in the course of a few years Jennie was effectnail cured of running to her mother with every .little thing. In school she proved an apt pupil, and mastered her lesson's with little apparent effort. Mr. and Mrs. Cbandier glanced at her school reports with pride and satisfaction. Jennie was learning ether thing?, too, of which no reports were given, rihe was taking lesrons of life from teachers whose only recominencat on was their readiness to impart such knowledge as tbey had gained; and while she was becoming well versed in orlhrgrapby, and syntax, and the products of the ulea of the sea, she was learning to Icok at all the sweet and holy mysteries of existence from the stand pointjtof the ignorant and vicious. She exchanged love j.otes aud tokens with enamored school boys, and carried next ber heart a lock of brown hair or of black, as her faticy wajei for the time being. 6oe ispent nights i b boscm friends sworn to eternal sccrtcy and fidelity. Sbe was a voracious reader, and among all her reading cothiog suited her to well as where the noble and princely Adolpbus clasped the fragile form of hi adored Gwendolen to his heart and rained dwn burning kisses upon her ruby lips and a .bester brow. Jennie was a pr.tty girl, fair-skinned and sender-waisteo, with lively ways and a ccqustish manner ot speech which was quite b witching. Te se her, at sixteen, tripping along in her French-heeled boots, her hair banged and lrizz-d all over her white brow, and ber ?resa a marvel of sbirring, and k rife-platting, aud p:ping, and looping, stud draping, was a sight full f prophetic meaning for sueh as have eyes tssee. At this age Ue bad co lack of attentive adorers. nd trmn among these had already made act choice. ! da with you wouldn't always be gadding about,' said her mother as sbe comes into the family room, lust as the lamps are liehted, cq itpd for departure.

It's too stupid 1 lou always sew or knit, and father read?, and if I try to have a little fun with Art. father locks as if he'd like to take my head off, and growls about I'm bound to have a little fun whila I'm vcunel'' Maybe you'il find out there s eome'.hing in th world besides lun. Deure you ar 0 many years older. 1 declare, there un . rma of mv children that cares the least in th world for me and after all I've done for theml" Mrs. Chandler burtts into tears as Jennie slams the street doer after he. For she is not so busy sf late. Ite Older eirls aro cone Kate married, Alice dead; Ned and Will are away at school; only Jen nie and fourteen-year-old Artie are at tome . . . . . A. . Mr. Hhandlerhas time to thin time to hunger for her children s love and sympa thv. and shed hot tears over the barrenness of the harvest tide which has come to her. Who and what is Fred Adams?" she In quires of her husband that evening, as they itia their warm, lonesome imiag-rwiB, Mr. Chandler dances up from his paper. Fred Adams?" he repeats absently. "O, I don't know much about him; shiftless feilow. I cuess." and he reads on contentedly. "I am aniious about Jennie,- ventures wie. ' W - . . . . . .I mother, after awhile. 'There's no telling what the chill mieht take it into ner ne&a to do." w Jennie I "What do voa mean?" isked Mr. Chandler, somewhat impatiently, but with a little show of interest. I drn't like her running around with Fred Adams so much." You don't think Jennie cares anythm for the fellow?-' exclaims he, lotting CIS pa per fall and speaking sharply. "1 have my rears. Where is she to-night? With him?" "I don't know," replied the mother, wear ily. 'Probably you are tormenting yoareeu abo' . nothing, remarks mt. cnanaier, picains or his paper.

"What is that Fred Adams hanging around here for?" besran Mr. Chandler at the dinner tabl- not many days after. Jennie buttered her bread in silence, but the hot blood, rushing to her cheeks and brow, tells a startling story. 'If vou have taken a notice to the young puppy,' said the father, his voice ri? angrily, "the sooner you put it out of your head tb better. I wont have him coming bere: and if you 'don't tell him I shall, Therj'c no uso of making many words about it. If you've been encouraging him in anv wav. now is the time to eUpl Yu understand? I think I have been plain enough and have said all that is necessary And 1 alwavs mean what I say. as it will be wico fur you to remember!" No word came from Jennie's Ups. How ever it mav be with her mother, with her father she has never dared to take any liber ties of speech. Dinner it finished in silence, and Mr. Chandler departs to his business. Mother and daughter make no mention of tte subject to each other. If Mrs. Cr-and ler's h art aches and y arcs as she glances at ber child's lllen fc some strange fear fetters htr tongue, and Jennie has never learned to tell her troubles here. So the two po their ways in a silence which is never to be broken. 'Where is Jennie?" asked Mr. Chandler, between rapid mcutbfuls, at dinner on the following day. "Seems to me she wasn't here at breakfast, was she?" No She went to Jennie Maddock's last nigtt. I have baen expecting her home for some time. It is unusual for ber to re main away so late in the day, unless it bas been so understood before she went away." Sulk v, probably, comments the father, rising the coffee cup to his lips. "If she shows sip "too much temper" sip I'll maker her stay at home for a month" bit; and go to bed at seven o'clock," drinking the last drop with an air of placid enioyment. "It is time she was put under a littie restraint." replacing his cup and pushing back his chtir, "she is getting alto gether too hieh-and-mighty." You had better send Artie after her," he adds, stand ing, hat in hand, at tre door, "or never mind! Ill atop myself on my way down town. The sooner sbe understands that a new order of things is coming to pass, the better!" And, indeed, a new order of tl ings has already come to pais a new orderof things f. r which Mr. Chandler has mad no calcu lititns. Jennie is not at Mr. Maddcck's. She 13 not to be found with any of her acquaint ances To tell in a few co;nmon; la e words tba heartbreak of a liietime. Jennie has gone away with her lover; and in a distant city tbe words have already been spoken which bind together for weai or wee, a silly, untaught, wayward girl, and a boy whote chief attractions are a black muttache and a juLty manner. Mr. Caandier storms and no not swears: he :s a Church rmmber, in good and regular standing, and prides himself on fulfilling rigidly all the demands of morality and religion. But it is doubtful if any catbs could hold bitterer curies than are embodied in tbe strictly moral words with which he expresses bis rage. Soe was always a selfish, undutiful child," he says. "Now let her suffer. She sball never darken my doors again, if sbe lives a hundred years. She has made her hod; let her lie in it! I will never lift my bai.d to help her. if sbe rots in the streets!" And so on. All good, old. time honored phrases, and not a profane word to bring a bluth to tbe cheek of tbe Recording Angel. Not tbat I don't blame you!" he remarks to his wife, by the way of comfort, Y u should have made her stay at home evenings " Nothing was ever done to make our children like to stay at home." The mother pours out a world of late remorse in the woids, '-You know how the boys always were!" Biys are different. They'll come out ail rieht sfter awhile. And you talk as a woman always does. Like k stay at home, yousay! Ifyouhadhad good tense you would have rnade her stay!" Mrs. Chandler makes no reply. A dim, horrible tense of responsibility weighs her down, a vague comprehension of the truth that no rich harvest can come where no

trood seed Visa been sown. Her tU6baod s

rerjroaches rouse no angry resentment in her benumbed spirit; they can scarcely, she thinks drearily, even add to her pain. Mr. Chandler is a man of great ne cans it firmness, strength of character. "What I say, I stand bv 1" is a favorite remark ot his. Returning at night from bu:ines, some weeks later, he lays an opened letter in his wife's Jap. She takes it in tremendous haste and reads: DgAB Mothkb: I know Fred and I have done wrong, but can't you forgive ubT I am just dving with homeaickn-is. U, mother I can hardly keep rnjfel. from itarting out, on loot and alone for the dear a home, du; i con s snow what father would say. We have rented a room and Fred has been trying to nod work, i think we shall not itav here much loneer; Fred s money is almost cone, and he will be obliged to co where he can earn more. A man here offered him thirty dollars a month to take care cf his horse and carden, but of court e Fred would not do such hard, dirty work as that. And he wants to earn higher wages I wish lather coull give him some empioy ment. Dear mother, won't jou please coax him? I don't know what we shall do it Fred does not find work pretty soon, wish I could see Artie. Your affectionate daughter, J K.N NIK." As Mrs. Chandler lifts hereyes.t husband smiles if that can be called a smile which holds reither mirth nor tendernesi a sim pie contortion of the mouth bringing out ttverv bard and unvielding line which lite has traced upon the countenance ot a man w ww who Drides himeelf on baine "set in bit way. And his wife utters no word of en trentv. It is twentvflve vears now, since she learned the meaning ot that smile. j . . . "I ou need need not write,' he says to her the next day. MI will say all that is neces sarv " "Need not" means that he will be bitterlj acery if the dees so; and Mrs. Chandler, who is no longer the active, energetic Deing of past tears, but a wan-fac woman with füst-whitenin hair, creeping about her household tasks in a tired, spiritless way n r a u obeys. Last year a woman died at a hoepitil in one of our Western cities, tier ytar might have numbered twenty-five, and her worn, old-joung face was not devoid or a certain delicate beauty. A city daily made mention of her death aitir this manner "A Sad Histokt." "Your reporter made lis way yesterday morning to St. Andrew's Hospital, for the purpo-:e ot interwoman, o viewmg the unfortunate jourjg whose story some short mention was madi in esterda 'a Trumpet.

A year or two after this her husband left her, go ing, she thinks, to the tar West, with gam bling associates: and since then she bas heard nothing from him.
