JERUY'S MORTGAGE.
Mrs. Denno put tlio finishing touch'
es to her ioniptins little sunpor-tftblc
( set for thrco ) , tucked Cissy's napkin
around her neck , nnd lifted IRT intc
her high chnir , thou. stepped to the
wide , cool door-way to watch for hot
husband , llu cuinu in sight ere lung ,
walking wearily nnd slonly , ns if the
fnir sunnner picture of mountains nnd
green fields gleamed upon eyes too
sad to drink in their beauty and sig
nificance. A man certainly not old in
years , but with lines jf care abwitt his
temples , nnd a painful droop ( o the
mobile , sctisativo mouth , which show
ed a harassiut * anxiety , a constant ,
daily struggle with fato. His wife
walked down the grassy garden-path ,
and took Ins hand in hers :
' 'You ovor-tirod , Jerry. I hnvo
n nice supper for youand Cissy is full
of cunning little ways to-night , Cheer
) , dear.
Ho looked down with a sorrowful
smile , and put his arm around her. " 1
am tired to-night , Lottie , tired nnd
discouraged. I hnvo been to Cyrus
once more , but "
His voice broke , and Louie elapsed
Itis hand moro tirmly , and raised it to
licr lips :
"Never mind tolling mo , my dear.
I can guess it. Ho is determined to
foreclose the mortgage ! "
"Yes. "
She walked silently up and down
the path with him.
"My own brother , Louie ! It does
acorn as if he might give us another
chnnco , you .know how ho is about
money. Since he married that second
wife of hia ho socms harder than ever.
Lloncst ho is no man could over
say that Cyrus wrpngod him of n
cent , but war to the knife to got his
own ! "
They entered tlio kitchen , whore
3issy was beating n drum solo on her
.in plate , and casting cngcr glances at
; ho plate of frosli ginger-bread.
"Pappa's baby , " said Jerry , and bent
down to kiss her. Ho sighed heavily
as he took his seat , while a tear atolu
down his cheek.
"Ugly man to make my pap.i cry , "
said Cissy , doubling up her small list ,
"I I jus' kill him ! "
The four year-old tot had gathered
enough from her parente' daily con
versation to Know that they were in
: roublo connected with " a man"
vhom she remembered to have seen n
'ow days before at their house. Ho
i.id talked loudly nnd fast , nnd the
ncntal photograh loft on the waxen
ablet of that infant soul would hnvo
nado nn angel weep.
'Hush-sh , Cissy. Mamma's daugh-
or musn't talk so. She should bo n
; entlo little girl ! " nnd Louie stroked
ho little fist till it slowly uncurled.
"Martin Lest told me to-day that
Cyrus has just bought another yoke
of oxen , nnd n § 200 buggy , " said
Jerry , bitterly , as he took a forced
swallow of tea.
"Well , " said his wife , "it can't bo
iclped , dear. Eut don't lot us chor-
sli hatred , or say anything wo may
) o sorry for. 1 know it's hard it's
lard ! " nnd her lips quivered as she
ooked around the neat , home-like
dtchon , nnd glnnced beyond it to the
vine-wreathed window of the bed
room whore her baby's eyes had first
opened to the light. "You know
liHcrent people have different make
ups. " A great sob rose in her throat
she gave one look at Cissy strug-
; led to restrain her feelings , but the
loud-tide of grief must have way ,
and , rushing to Jerry , she clasped her
arms about his neck nnd burst into
ears , just as a shadow fell across the
door-way , and a visitor entered.
In the morning sunshine , in the
corner of a flourishing field near a
hrifty-looking white frame house ,
urroundod by substantial out-build-
ngs , a man with n bushy , red board ,
ind small , weasel-like , gray eyes , was
locing corn. Ho was so busy that he
icithor saw nor heard the approach of
outsteps to the fence.
"Cyrus Deano , do you know that
'ou'ro a-sondin' your own soul ri ht
straight to perdition ? "
He looked up , startled. A tall ,
Xaunt female was peering at him from
n pair of glistening ) spectacles a
woman in n rusty , black dross and a
itraw "shaker" trimmed with a bom-
) azino capo , and a single bow of black
ibbon. It was Miss Mahala Trufiett ,
She was that universal village cliarac-
, er of whom the weak nnd vicious BO
ustly stand in awe n woman who
ipeaks her mind and a very startling
vay she had of doing it. ISmng pos-
CBsed of considerable property nnd
ocinl position , she waa allowed to
exercise hur privilege to her heart's
ontent. A tongue like forked light-
ling , when occasion required , hut a
icitrt o'erllowing with Iwvo for the
truggling and miNering. Cyrus
) cuno shifted his hoe nnensily. " 1
[ on't see hcow you make it eout thet
. 'm ii-guin' any faster'n other folia. I
min't done nothin' to disohlccgo you
het I know of , "
"You know what 1 mean , I was
ip to Jerry's last night. " She "avo
urn another steady look from those
lli.idamanthus-like glasses His gaze
ull huforu hues.
"I hain't pizonpd none o' Jerry's
cutters , nor sot his barn a-firo , hov
r
"You'vo pi/.oncd his peace o1 mind ;
ou'vo wore him eout with worry , till
le's a walkin' ghost. I sot great store
n Louisy Ann , I do. nnd when I eee
lor a-gitti . ' that lit o' high-stencks
ast night , nil along o' your hardness
and Kcnnchin' meanness , I come as
ugh bilin over as over I did in my
iio ! Your own hrolherCyrus Deano !
J'ho little , curly headed chap that ,
ike enough , slop * on the same pillow
with yon many a night. What would
, -our mother ha1 thought , ef aho'd
ia' knowod hcow different you'd turn
out ? "
Cyrus Deano drew down his bushy
eye-brows and gave an energetic kick
at a small bowlder.
"Jerry lied cz good n chance to git
along oz mo. Wo started even. It's
us own look-cout ! He hain't no han *
o manage never was never could
jit forehanded in his born days.1'
"Tho moro reason why you ought
to bo merciful. Ho hain't hod ce
good a chance ez you. The year that
your barns was groanin' an' runnin
jver , his wheat got the weevil , an'
lis corn ketchcd the mildew. His
cattle died , an1 his tools was stole.
Ho laid sick with rheumatic fever ,
and lied a doctor's hill of SOO to pay

any woman , cookin' , an' clcnnin' ,
and grubbin' , an' never hod the fits
scrap of hired help'ccpt for 11 days
when Cissy was ft baby , nn' she
never gits a ride in a brnn-now buggy ,
nuther ! " casting n keen glance to
ward the wagon shed.
Cyrus mopped his beaded brow with
n red cotton handkerchief , and took
up his hoe with a determined air , ns il
to end the conference.
"I hain't ben harf as hard on him
ez some folks would ha' boii. I've
gin him tiino , an' gin him time , ( ill
my pntionco is clean tuckered eout ,
nn' ho keeps a-tallin' behind instead
o' pettin1 forrard. He's youiiger'n 1
bo , ho kin go west ! "
Miss Malmta took ot her "shaker , '
nnd shook out the capo , stralghtem-d
out the bow , and sot it on her head
again , then said , in slow , measured
tones ;
"May the Lord hov mercy on your
soul. Cyrus Dennu ! Ef ho measured
it eout to you cz yon do toother folks ,
you'd hov precious little to bo thank
ful for. "
She walked slowly down the road ,
and Cyrus went on with his hoeing.
Ho didn't consider himself n hnrd
man , Honest , outwardly ho was , ns
.lorry had said , but "war to tlio knife
to get his own " In two short weeks
ho could foreclose the mortgage , and
Jerry's little place would bo his own.
Would he do it ? Miss Malmla's words
wore verjuice to his consciesco , fern
n brief minute nobler feelings strove
with his greed of gain , then , dashing
down the hoe :
"Nol Goshdurnitl Jerry's got to
look eout fer himself. He's n irrown
man- not a baby ! Why carh't thet
cussid eld vinegar-face mind her own
business ? "
In the afternoon ho drove to the
next town in his now b'uggy. A little
llossy-haired girl ran out from a nook
in the woods , and cried ,
"Man man- take mo a little ride ,
do please. "
Ho rained up the horse , and helped
the little creature in. Cyrus Deano
had one soft spot in his heart it was
for little tiny children. No prattling
lips had over called him "father. " It
would have boon bettor for those he
had to deal with had it been other
wise.
wise."And
"And whoso little gal bo you , pray ,
out hero in the woods alonof" ho
asked.
"I'm Cissy Deano , and mamma lets
me go to the big rock by myself ,
'cause 1 know the way. " She looked
up and gave a little howl. "Let me
out ! Oh , lot mo out ! You'ro ' n bad ,
dreadful mini ! You'ro the man that
made my papa cry ! "
She scrambled down , and shaking
her tiny list at the buggy , stamped her
foot , and ran uwny.
A bitter look came into Cyrus
Deauo's face. "My own brother's
youngster , an1 I never would ha'
kuowed her of she hndn't told mo her
name. She'll hate mo too , like cs
not ! "
Ho whipped up his horse , nnd drove
on rapidly. Fate seemed determined
to thrust the mortgage business in his
face , at every turn. Ho had two
weeks before him. Ho could change
his mind whenever ho chose. Should
ho do it ?
Cyrus Deane and his wife were eat
ing their early breakfast next morn
ing , when Miss Mahala gave a short
knock at the kitchen-door , then ,
according to the prevailing custom ,
opened it , and walked in. With
a rather grim "good moriiing" to Cy
rus , nnd a stifllsh nod to Mrs. Deano
Number Two , who handed her a chair ,
she proceeded nt once to the business
that had brought her there.
"Heow much "ill you give fcr that
big blackberry lot o' mine , Cyrus
Deano , south of Anthony Wood's
place ? "
Cyrus looked surprised. "SVhy ,
what bo you wantin' to soil that blaok-
b'ry lot for ? "
"That jest the identikit question ,
Sposin' I dew want to sell it , what
will I sell it for ? In other words ,
what "ill you buy it for ? "
Cyrus beano's little gray eyes twin
kled. His vulpine instincts scented a
bargain. Ho hemmed and hawed :
"Waal now come to think on't ,
th'ain'fc much good in a blackb'ry lot.
You carnt keep the pesky boys off of
it to save yer life ! "
"Ef you couldn't scare 'em off , I
don't know who could , " said Miss
Mahala , with a snap. "It's splendid
land. You could plow 'em under ,
and raise 'most anythin' on it. I
hain't had much time to bother with
it , lately. HO it's laid there , and laid
there. Tlnir's one or two ben askin'
me 'bout it. "
"Yuns yans ! " said Cyrus , and
hitched in his chair.
Miss Mahala sat silent , She felt
sure of her man
Cyrus pushed away his pinto , nid |
moved back from the table. His wife
began to clear off the dishes ,
" .Sposin' you struck n party thot
wanted it , hoow much 'ud you take for
it , did you nay ?
" 1 didn't say , I asked how much
you'd give mo for it. "
Cyrus reached out his horny hand ,
and pulled n splinter from the broom
that hung near.
"Waal " his teeth
now ) picking ,
tain't likely nnybuddy 'ud give you
inoro'n n hundred dollaisfnr it. Would
you sell for that ? "
"Of course not , " unid Miss Mahala
promptly , "it's worth jest double
every cent of it. "
"Thun " began Cyrus , and knit
his brows.
"It will bo u building lot some
day , when the village grows. Then
whoever owned it could git § 500 for
it , easy. " said MinsMuhula.
"Why don't you hold on low it ,
then ? " asked Cyrus , quickly.
"Because I'd ruthor sell it now , "
and Miss Mahala snapped the clasp
of her old-fashioned reticule hanging
on her arm.
"I couldn't give § 200 fer it , no way
at all. Would you take § 150 ? "
"Call it 8175 , and it'a n bargain.
John llaly 'ud jump nt it ef he could
git it ut that price. "
Cyrus threw down the broom splin
ter and reached for another ,
"Remember , in a few yeat'a you
may git § 500 for it ! "
"I inought , and then again I
moughtont , " said Cyrus , then , sud
denly slapping his knee , "Waul call
it a trade at 8175 ! Do ye want it ull
to-day , cash down ? "
"I don't want any cash at all. I'll
rive you a dred o' the lot , an' $125 in
cajh , besides , cf you'll tmdo me "
Tlio conclusion of her sentence hat ;
the cflbct of nn electrical shock on her
auditor.
"Thun yon don't menu it. What
in kingdom bo you a thinkin' of , to
take hole o' seech n rcosky piece o'
property cz that , '
" 1 hain't afoared o' the resk , " Raid
Miss Mahala , drawing forth n roll ol
greenbacks from her roticulo.
The bargain wasmado. They went
to the squire's to have a deed made
outami ns MissMahnla'sstilVstraight
ti uro disappeared down the road , a
crafty sniilo BWopt over Cyrus Dean's
face , nnd ho slowly ejaculated :
all-tho-tarnal - - fools on
the face of the nirththe tarnalost is
n womnii when she sets out to trans
act biziness ! "
A few hours later , Miss Mahaln
stepped softly across the threshold of
Jerry Dean's homo.
" 1 hain't forgot that this is Cissy's
birthday. I've fetched her n little
present , " setting a plate on the table.
"Tain't much to brag of , only n loaf
o' 'lection cake , but Timothy Mead-
OWBOS wife ( she 'twas "Liza Hlynn )
.isod to 'low that I was the boatonest
mud at 'lection cake thet aho ever
see. I don't say it to boast. Go on
with your dinner. I've ct mine. "
She gave Cissy ft loving hug , and
lelped herscH to n chair , receiving
\frs. \ Deano's thanks with n "Sho ,
taint nutliin' to spunk of , only 1
hought I'd jest like to coluhrntc.
Cissy's n portickler friend o1 mine ,
, 'ou know.
After n pause , she continued : "Uy
ho way , Louisy Ann , you'd better
nit in on another platter. It's hen
in that one so long it's got all sweated
lownl"
As Mrs. Deano lifted it she dia-
cinorod 11 folded paper underneath.
'What's this ? " she exclaimed in sur-
iriso.
"Jest open it an' see , " said Miss
Mahaln. "Didn't 1 tell you 1 wanted
o celebrate ? " and the llhadamnnthus
lassos grow suspiciously cloudy.
"Jerry ! Oh , Jerry ! It's the mort-
.jnsro ! How ever did you got hold of
t , Miss Mahala ? "
"That's my ntlair , " said MissMnhn-
n. "Tlio only ditfereiice is that you
