A Middle-Aged Romance.
'
Dobbins is not a romantic name ,
nor , indeed , was Mr. Dobbins at all a
romantic person ; indeed ho was the
very last man I should have thought
of as a blighted being. He was
rather rotound elderly person , with
a wide waistcoat and a choleric tem
per. Indeed , this choleric temper was
liis most prominentcharacteristic ; ho
was always quarreling with the
postman , and accusing him of tam-
pi-rinji" with his mail , and he was con-
vlnnily changing his butcher by rea
son of an unpleasant habit ho had of
returning cooked roasts which were
not k'utler , and demanded that his
money bo refunded. lie was also
constantly engaged in a fiery contro
versy with somebody or other and
threatening to have them overhauled
by the board of public works , or the
Legislatureand hu wrote many in
dignant letters to tho newspapers
signed "Citizen , " "Tax-payer , " or
"Veritas. " I confess that I used to
be awfully afraid of Mr. Dobbins ,
and when Charlie and I
were first engaged I would
walk squares out of my way to avoid
him , but fortunately he was very
busy just then proving to council that
somebody or other was an infamous
scoundrel , so he only called us a pair
of young fools , which was very mild
condemnation indeed for him. Some
how I always thought Mr. Dobbins
was an old bachelor . , even when he
was a little boy , until one day about
a year ago , my cousin Kate came
over in a great state of excitement.
"Well , Grace ltoyson , I have some
thing to tell you , ' ; she began as she
pounced into a rocking chair.
"lias Charlie been smoking those
horrid cigarettes ? " I asked.
"Charlie , indeed. " said Ivate , un
kindly ; "I'm not always thinking
about Charlie. No old Miss Susan
Thayer has been spending the day
with us "
"Oh ! " I groaned in sympathy.
"And she told us that Mr. Dobbins
and Aunt Grigson used to be en
gaged , " went onKate
"Well , I never , said I , without re
gard to grammar.
"Of course not , nor anybody else
but he must have been just as quar
relsome then as he is now , for it was
broken off three times once because
she wanted to be married in blue ,
and once because she assisted at a
church fair. "
"The idea , " I said. "Charlie and I
once didn't speak for ten days be
cause I would take the bag booth at
our church fair. "
"Yes , and the third time Miss Susan
wasn't sure , but she thought it was
because Aunt Grigson expressed a
preference for bakingpowder , instead
of soda , in biscuits. However , she
finally thxew him over and married
Uncle Grigson. And , 0 Grace I do
believe that is why he is always so
cross he has a broken heart. " .
"Oh ! poor Mr. Dobbins , " I cried ,
"I am sure now that he is more sor
rowful than cross. "
"Yes , indeed , and Miss Susan says
that he went on awfully and threat
ened to cut Mr. Grigson's throat.
By the way , Grace , have you heard
from aunt and uncle lately ? "
"Yes , I had a letter from aunt to
day. They are in Florida for his
health , and he will go sailing all the
time , and insists on collecting pet
chameleons and alligators until aunt
is afraid that he will be drowned and
she devoured alive. "
That night when Charlie came to
see me I told him all about his poor
Uncle Dobbins , but he wasn 't a bit
sympathetic , and it was a good thing
for him that they hadn 't been mar
ried.
ried."Oh
"Oh , you selfish boy , " I said.
"When it broke poor Mr. Dobbins'
heart , and how do we know what
poor Aunt Grigson suffered , too. "
"Bother his broken heart , " said
Charlie , unfeelingly.
"Oh , Charlie. "
"Well , you don't suppose that
Uncle Dobbins ever loved your Aunt
Grigson as I do you , " and then I
don't believe we talked about them
any more.
But I kept on thinking about it , it
was so romantic , and when I got a
telegram about ten days later , an
nouncing Uncle Grigson's death in
Florida , it did seem like the hand of
Providence. Kate and I consulted
about the best way oftelling Mr.
Dobbins that his old love was free.
Kate thought it would be best for
Charlie to breakthe news.
"Oh , I do hope he won't go right
off to Florida ; " I said , "for that
would not really be proper. "
But Charlie laughed.
'Best not tell uncle too soon after
dinner , " he said , "he might get apo
plexy. "
"We won't discuss the matter any
further , " I said with dignity. "I de
test a hard heart. "
Then he tried to explain that he
couldn't be sentimental over his
uncle's affairs when he had had two
fingers knocked out of place by a hot
ball.
"Served you righttoo , " Iretorted.
"Why , I thought you liked base
ball , Gracie. "
"So I do , in moderation , but if it is
going to force all your feelings into
your fingers , I snail hate it. "
So after all I had to tell Mr. Dob
bins the news. He came along next
day when I was on the front steps ,
• as I generally was about time for
Charlie to go to the office.
"Good morning , Mr. Dobbins , " I
said , hoping Charlie wouldn't come
along yet. "Fine day , isn't it ? "
"Too warm , too warm , there'll be
a thunder shower before long , and
Erobably several people killed , " and
e looked as if it was my fault.
. "Oh ! Mr. Dobbins , " said I , speak
ing very fast , for my heart beat so
that it choked me. "Talking of
deaths , Uncle Grigson died inFlorida
last week. "
"Huh , indeed , " said Mr. Dobbins ,
and hastened away to conceal his
emotions , and I'm sure ' that the rea
son he stayed so long at the fish wag
on at the corner was not that he
. , , ' , , . .
l. - ' , . . l „ - - . .A.x
cared for tho fish , but only that ho
was so excited ho had to do something
to hide his emotion.
Aunt Grigson went homo to Phila
delphia , and I spent the winter with
her. Sho seemed to like Charlie when
ho camo on to see me , and re
marked that he looked liko his uncle ,
which mado Charlie very angry ,
but it pleased me , for I
thought she must have a
soft place in her heart for Mr. Dob
bins , to think him anything like
Charlie. She refused to talk about
Mr. Dobbins , though I tried often to
lead up to tho subject , and tho only
other time sho spoke of him was
when I showed her that paper con
taining one of his "Taxpayer" let
ters. Sho read it , sighed a little , and
said , softty. "Poor Joshua , poor
Joshua ! " and just then the dinner
bell rang , or I'm sure I should have
hoard the whole story. When I got
back I told Kate that I thought we
ought to do something to reunite
the long-separated lovers , but sho
didn't seem to take any more interest
in the plan , which I thought very
mean , especially as Mr. Dobbins and
her papa had lately become such
friends that he spent every evening
at the house. I went to Charlie for
sympathy. "I suppose it'is because
Kate hasn't a lover , " I said. "She
don't know how dreadful it would be
to be separated. "
"I say , Gracie , " Charley said , "If
Uncle Josh and your aunt get mar
ried , what is to become of us ? "
"Perhaps they will ask us to live
with them , " I suggested , but Charlie
said he didn't want to live with Mr.
Dobbins , and I couldn't blame him
for that. "We can wait , " I said
soothingly , "we have only been en
gaged a year , and they have been
separated twenty. "
"Yes , wait , " said Charlie , spitefully ,
"and let that ugly , long-legged Hunt
ley fellow hang around all the time , "
and then we quarreled , and I gave
him back his ring and made up my
mind to ask Aunt Grigson to visit
me as soon as she began to lighten
her mourning. So I began to write
to her and tell her that her health
would suffer if she continued to wear
her heavy crape all summer. Aunt
Grigson is awfully afraid of dying , so
she soon promised to wear a "love"
veil and come for a month's visit.
This and Kate's queer behavior quite
excited me , so that I scarcely missed
Charlie's visit , until I heard that he
smoked cigaretts all day long , and
had taken his sister's visitor out driv
ing twice. Then I began to wish
Aunt Grigson and Uncle Dobbins at
the bottom of the Bed Sea but when
Charlie did come down from his high
horse I made him eat a great deal of
humble pie , and promise not to inter
fere in any way with my plans. Mr.
Dobbins had become rather spruce
lately ; he wore shoes at least
two sizes too small for him ,
sported a new cane , and
wore a flower in his button-hole.
"He don't want Aunt Grigson to
think that he is growing old , " I said
to Kate. The plot was now ripe , and
I began to hint in my letters to aunt
about an old friend of her ' s who
would be very glad to see her again ,
and also to send her copies of all the
papers containing Mr. Dobbins' com
plaints , marked with his initials. I
think she began to feel a little inter
ested , for she spoke of her lonely
home and half promised to take
Kate and me to the seashore in
August. ( What had Kate to do
within , I'd like to know ? ) "Near
enough to your home for any friends
to run over and see us , " she wrote.
At last tho day came of aunt's arriv
al , and just before train time came a
penitent note fro.m Charlie saj'ing
that he had quite forgotten to tell
his uncle of her intended coming ;
"but hoped it did not matter. "
Matter , indeed ! I was so mad that I
broke two hairpins buttoning ray
gloves. I waited for Kate to go
to the train with me , but no Kate
appeared. However , great was ray
joy to see Mr. Dobbins quarreling
with some laborers who were making
an excavation in the street : as he
camo away , swinging his cane very
fiercely , I ran down the steps. I was
no longer afraid of him. I knew now
his ill-humor was only a mask for his
secret sorrow , and that sorrow was
about to be lifted from his heart.
"Oh , Mr. Dobbins ! " 1 cried. "Who
do you think I am expecting to-day ?
My Aunt Grigson. I think you used
to know her. I hope you will come
to see her. " A moment's pause en
sued , during which I wondered how
much he would increase Charlie ' s sal
ary , and whether he would ask us to
live with them or give us a house of
our own. Then Mr. Dobbins turned
and glared at me. "Yes , younglady , I
did use to know her , and a precious
flirt she was. " Still jealous of poor
Uncle Grigson , I thought , what an
Othello , but I managed to falter : She
is probably a good deal changed now ,
Mr. Dobbins. "
"Changed , " he snorted , "I should
say so. I saw her a year or two ago
in New York , and avery fat and ugly
old woman sheliad grown to be. "
"Oh , Mr. Dobbins , how can you ? "
I asked , half crying. "Wiry , I thought
you expected to marry her. "
'And fortunately I didn't , ' he chuck
led , "for I'm to be her nephew now ,
your cousin Kate Boyson and I are
to be married next month. You may
tell Savilla Grigson so when she ar
rives. "
I walked on to the depot in such a
maze of rage and indignation that I
shouldn't have known Aunt Grigson
if she had arrived , but she didn't a
horrid little messenger boy came
thrusting a telegram into my hand :
it"was from Aunt Grigson and read :
"Can't come to-day. Was married
to the Bev. James T. Savage at 7
o'clock. Break tlie news to Joshua
Dobbins , " signed Savilla Savage. I
never will try to make amatch again.

Farm economy is not working four
teen hours a day and doing chores after
dark , plowing with an old , worn-out
plow , uhen the quality and quantity of
work can be nesirly doubled with a new ,
improved plow , neglecting a valuable
garden for the sake of saving a day and
a half's expense of labor , and buying an
inferior article because it is cheap , sa3's
a writer in The Husbandman. True
economy consists iu making a reasona

by careful study and labor-saving imple

It is said that the operation of trans
planting a clear piece of a mbbit's
cornea into the blind eye of a patient ,
performed ten days ago at the Presby
terian E3o and Ear Charity hospital , of
Baltimore , has proved a success. At the
end of a week the bandages were re
moved and the C3'e exposed to the light.
The piece of the rabbit's cornea was
completely united to the human e3re
and hail grown to the edge of the hole
made in the blind e3Te opposite the
pupil. The clear graft had become
cloudy in the process of uniting to the
human e3e. Already , however , it has
begun to clear up , and the man is be
ginning to enjo3 * the privilege of seeing.
This he has not done for three j'ears ,
when his ey es were destro3red b3' lime.
The operation of transplanting in the
left e3e was so satisfactory that hvo
din's since Dr. Chisolm made a similar
operation on the right e3e. Philadel
