"Younjf Mr. Gordon will to liero nxt week, I'miMy." Muw Mollle Hrnilersofl, famjliarly known as "Paiwy" premmiably borauNO she did not in any rospeet renemblo that "flower of thoughts," being of an exceedingly vivacious temperament, and addicted in tbo earlier days of her existence to top-spinning, inarble playing, and otlier amusotnenU popularly supposod to io the exclusive property of boys looked up in a very placid maimer as her father mado this announcement, and answered it fully und eCfoctively by an ex prcssive shrug of her pretty shoulders ami a very decided pouting of her small mouth. Then she placed the book which had Imsbii f"Ka2'uf her attention on the- sofa by her side, caused her small feet to swiftly doscribo a semi -circle, and whon the flash of brown bono and prettily-turned ankle was over sho had aaisuiiied a bitting posture, her previous attitude Laving Lhou one of comfortable but rather undiguifiod recumbency. -She then placed Iter elbows on her kneos, regarded her father complacently, and said; "Is the Arapahoe coming, too?" Mr. Henderson's manner changed nt one.. "Yes." he replied, "Mr. Gordon will accom pany bis son; and I want you, Margaret, to treat him with every resiiect in fact, I shall expect you to do so." The figure on the sofa saw that a mistake had been mado early in tho campaign.. When her father addressed her its " Margaret" it meant serious displeasure oa his part. It also meant that ha int be jjlacnted at once, for Mr. Henderson was one of that rather numerous class of men in whose miud a real or fancied injury continues to magnify with each succeeding instant, until it finally wraps their whole existence in an artificial but none the less effective gloom. Mollio was well ac quainted with the disease, and ou equally inti mate terms with the remedy. Consequently she at once bounded from the sofa, Hung her arms around tho paternal neck, sq-ieezin;' that useful portion of man's auatoiny until a fracture of the cervical vertebra seemed imminent, bestowing at the same timo upon her sire a large number of kisses, these being punctuated with ejaculatory mid highly incoherent remarks to the ell eft that the object of this tidal-wave of (e-od'ntion was the dearest, darlingest old npa iu tlio world, so he was. and that the oratrix, on I he con trary, was a naughty, wicked girl, who didn't deserve to have such a sivoet, lovely pajia, who was always doing everything in the world for her. And then, having fiu isliB.1 this wild flutter of disjointed English, Miss Mollie nestled closely in hci father's arms and iudulged in that never-failing pan acea for all the woes to which fvtoa V- tli-sh is pcriictual heir a good cry. "It's all right. Pansy, darling." said Mr. Henderson, stroking gently the mass of brown hair that lay upon his breast; tho re mainder of tho head to which it lielongcd having lwen thrust violently under his left arm iu an npjiarently wild endeavor to dis cover by burrowing any stray suspender or other article of gents' furnishing goods that might be concealed there. "I was a little hard on you, perhaps, but vou know Mr. Gordon is a life-long friend of mine, and I don't like to have you allude to him Lu a careless or jesting manner." The face was slowly withdrawn from l neath the paternal arm and looked up at Ilr Heuderson. It was not exactly a pretty face, there being a tip-tilted nose somewhere aliout the middle of it, and the features were not at all regular or classic. But the big brown eyes and their long lashes would have attracted attention from any one not a pro fessional cynic or misanthrope, and when these, looking up appealingly, called to their aid a drooping mouth, white, regular teeth, and lips that seemed quivering with the agony of great mental suffering, the imme diate and complete capitulation of whoever constituted the opposing force was a mutter of course. And here a little explanation is necessary. From the days of her infancy, when, her mother having died, sho was relegated to the care of a maiden aunt whose spinstorhood, in view of the fact that Mr. Henderson had loved his vfe very dearly, and did not at all desire to replace with another helpmeet, ap peared to be a special dispensation in favor 01 the motherless little girl, Mollie had been treated by her father to remarks concerning Mr. John Gordon, who, she was informed, had gone to the far west several years previ ously, and been left a widower with one child, a boy about five years older thau Mollie, Oue of the first facts impressed upon the child's mind was that Mr. Gordon lived in Idaho. Subsequently in her infantile perusal of the newspapers which at the age of ten she read regularly, and with great fidelity to de tailshe gleaned the information that Idaho was the home of the Arapahoe Indians, and at once identified Mr. Gordon with tho noble sons of the forest, and pictured him to her self as a ferocious person of carmine huo (naving seen Indians alluded to in the public prints as red men) carrying constantly with him a large supply of tomahawks and other destructive cutlery, while there dangled at his belt a long string of particularly gory scalps. When, with increasing years, came the knowledge that her father's friend was not an Indian, Mollie stuck heroically to the name, and persistently alluded to him rs "the Arapahoe." It had always been a fancy of Mr. Hender son's that he should like to see his daughter married to the son of his old friend, and be had not failed to mention tlje fact to Mollio wnen tnat young lady reached the age at which the feminine mind is supposed to take more or less interest in such matters. But Miss Mollie only sniffed the air disdainfully through her "retrousse" nose, and replied that she hoped papa would succeed in getting rid of her to some aborigine, throwing out at tho same time dark hint to the effect that in case the child of the prairies should suddenly be come deceased, she bad no doubt Mr. Bamum would part with one of his wild men from Borneo, in order that all hopes of a suitable alliance for ber might not be frustrated. At the close of one of these outbursts, she would generally weep copiously, which action al ways reduced Mr. Henderson to a state of servile humility, and insured Miss Mollie im munity from further allusion to matrimony for at least a month. But now the young man who had flitted in such a will-o'-the-wisp fashion before her mental vision for so many years was coming to New York. The trip was to bo made, his father had written Mr. Henderson. fr the double purpose of giving "the boy" (he was 26) a chance to see the sights of a great city and affording the other gentleman an opportunity of revisiting the scenes of his yontb, which, as Mr. Henderson informed Mollie parenthetically while reading the let ter to her, were about four miles back of New London, Conn., and not, so far as he was aware, of a particularly inspiring character. now, ransy, darling," said Mr. Hender- tiMl ret . Mollie's rather formal and -omewhat distant - greeting in an equally ceremonious and remote manner. Their reaver-ation was net at first particularly brilliant or interesting. In lieu of a more "uggefctive topic Mollie ventured a few gen eral remarks concerning the weather, but, young Mr. Gordon not appearing to take tho slightest interest in the existent mteoro logical conditions, she was speedily reduced to a state of hopeless imbecility, so far aa conversation was concerned. But presently she revived somewhat, and essayed another attack. Had Mr. Gordon seen much of the city, and how did it impress him? Mr. Gordon's observation of the metropolis it appeared had not been of an extensive character, and be was not, therefore, pre pared to commit himself as to its general ap pearance. He then ventured the assertion that 31 hh Mollio had probably often soen the ocean. Mollio at once admitted Ixting on terms of personal intimacy with that liody of water, and went on to describe with a girlish enthu siasm the beauties of the Atlantic, telling how its apparently limitless area always im pressed her, and then dilating on the grand cur of the scene when the vast billows driv en by the mighty energy of a gale, came leaping shoreward with resistless force, their foam-crowned summits showing whitj and haggard against thedull gray of a cloudridden sky, while here and there a vessel tossing helplessly in the caldron of the tempest at tracted attention and pity. She was getting on famously , when the young man suddeuly interjected a query as to whether mackerel wore not caught in the ocean. Mollie re plied that they certainly were 11 least she had so read in books. Personally, however (with a charming sniff through tho tii-tiltod nose), she knew nothing at all ol the matter. . "I like mackerel," said young Mr. Qordo.i, "especially when they are served with baked potatoes and toast," And having delivered himself of this edifying gastronomical senti ment he gazed abstractedly at tho toe of his Ixiot and appeared to be enjoying a reverio in which unliiuitod mackerel and countless baked potatoes were "constantly passing be fore his enraptured vision. "There is somo lovelv needlework at the art exposition," suddenly exclaimed Moliie, she having performed in the mental ocean of her thoughts the nautical operation known as "jibbing," which consists in instantaneously altering your course without much regard to how it is done. Young Mr. Gordon recalled himself from the mystic dreamland of mackerel and baked potatoes and gazed at her intently. "I ex pect likely," was his somewhat general re ply. "I have got an awful cute crazy quilt," continued Mollie. "Did you ever see a crazy quilt, Mr. Gordon?'' A solemn aud prolonged shaking of the head convoyed the information that the person addressed was wholly ignorant of (insane bed clothes of any description. Foranotlier hour Mollie bravely endeav ored to discover a subject concerning which young Mr. Gordon would consent to unlock the floodgates of his mind, but without suc cess, aud then gladly retired to her room. "He isn't bad-looking, papa," she said to her father in an ante-breakfast chat the next morning, the subject being young Mr. Gordon, "but be is such a stupid I" And then she related the mackerel episode. But as the days went on Mollie found young Mr. Gordon to improve wonderfully on acquaintance. She soon discovered that he could talk fluently enough when occasion required, and that in the line of paying tho little courtesies to which all women attach so much iuiiiortance he was a veritable Bay ard. They rode, walked, took long drives, and availed themselves of various other amusements which a country life affords. Insensibly they became very confidential with each other, but it was the frank confidence of friendship at leas. Mol- t ; , t 1 no inougn. so, anu never was mortal more surprised than she when one evening, as they sat together on the piazza young Mr. Gor don suddenly took her hand in his and asked her to marry him. "You must have seen how you have grown into my heart, MoIIief he said, very earnestly; "and I am sure you believe my love one that will l true and faithful." But instead of receiving the answer he liad hoped for, young Gordon found the lit tle hand suddenly withdrawn from his, and a pair of very snappy brown eyes looking at him. "I am obliged for the honor, Mr. Gordon," she said, "but you can tell your father that I wouldn't fall in with his plans and be disposed of like a load of hay. You can tell your father that," and Miss Moliie was gone, leav ing young Mr. Gordon alone on the piazza, very sore at heart and very much mystified. "I am sorry that you and Johnnie should have fallen out," said the elder Mr. Gordon to Mollie the following day, "because we are going away to-morrow, and it seems too bad to have anything mar the pleasure of our visit. I had no idea the boy would fall in love with you that wasn't what I brought him east for." "It wasn't!" queried Mollie. getting sus piciously white about tho mouth. "Why, no." continued the father, "why should If "Oh, of course not," incoherently replied Mollie, and immediately boltod into the house, leaving Mr. Gordon to enunciate con fidentially to himself the proposition tliat "girls were bell when they got started." ' The next morning Mollie arose very early, and was unusually occupied with various household duties so much so that it was not until the time for departure arrived that young Mr. Gordon had a chance to speak to ber. He came into .the parlor, where she wa ussiduously dusting a spotless statue. "Good-by. Miss Henderson," he said, vary siowiy. "G-o-o-d-b-y,"?was the reply in a somewhat falsetto tone, aiyl young Mr. Gordon noticed with surprise that Mollie did not even look at him, but kept the duster going vigorously. " Is there anything I can do for you in the wastf" be said, going close to ber " No-o." ''-thing at ail? Is there nothing you want!" "Y-e-e-a." "What is itr "I want yeu!" she suddenly exclaimed, and before young Mr. Gordon bad time to reflect on -his extraordinary declaration he found a vary pretty young 'lady sobbing violently La Ma arms, and from the hall heard his father remark that if women, didn't totally eclipse the infernal regions he had failed to discover wuat did. EVANGELIST MOODY. Frominent Minister Gives Analysis of tho Noted Revivalist aa Chicago Times A promiuent divine and an intimate per sonal friend of Mr. Moody contributes the following interesting sketch of the distin guished evangelivt.: Mr. Moody, the chief speaker in the lata convention, is a Chi. ago production. In his physique thoroughly healthy and nervous; eager and pronounced hi opinion, and withal poseesHed of a large amount of good mother wit, be is bound to carry through anything which he under takes. Tweuty-three years ago the writer knew him as a "worker" on the north side, and indeed all over tlie city. Then he was a flame of fire, and be has not cooled a single degree since. At that time wild and anti-church in his senti ments be was not an unmixed bleusing to the Chicago clergy. He is well remembered as riding about 011 a shaggy pony, with, an old cap pulled over his eyes, and electrifying an audience many a time in spite of his illiter acy. He has achieved the wonder at becoming intelligent and consecrated and at the eaxnn time keeping'his heat. He has fairly broken out a niclie for himself in history. St. Ber nard, Francis d'Assisi, and Tavanarola aro no more sure of being known by the future students of the Christian church than Dwight L. Moody. August in, Bossuet, Massilon, Jer emy Taylor, Robert Hall, and scores of emi nent preachers have blazed out away along the Line of Christian prayers. Moody belongs to another order. Without education, a man of the masses, he has swept tho British isles and this country,, and aroused religious faith with a success which rivals the first period of the apostolic age. After so wide a success it could not be otherwise than that he should 1? a trifle peremptory-, and sometimes dicta torial, and it is only surprising that he is not more so. He is modest, and, on the whole, quite considerate of these whose field is more narrow, and he keeps in mind his dependence on the good will and sympathy of the clerical body. As is true with everv healthy and severe mind, Moody, to the surprise of some of his followers of the morbid type, has an eye for tho humorous side of Christian work. His quick common sense was illustrated when he worked In Chicago in 1876. In tho heat of zeal, the theme being "The Abandoned Classes," a widely-known "worker" proposed front the platform of the tabernacle that the young men of the Christian association put by their scruples and go forth to reclaim the fallen women of tho town. God would go with them, he said, as he closed his earnest appeal. Up rose Mr. Moody: "No, no; that won't do! Let the women go after their unfortunate sisters." That ended the debate. At that time the vouchers for miracles found no opening for their wonderful stories. Moody had liardly left town liefore tho Far well hall meetings had on record some of tho most wondrous events. His method of han dling men is well shown in the case of tho young man who came to him in great despair real, and not feigned. The world had gone wrong with him, and he had settled 011 suicide. "Good," said Moody, "let's think about it." It was about 11 in the evening. "Let's pray awhile, aad then if you think that suicide is the best thing, per haps I'll help you along." The suicide col lapsed. Once a brother talked quite warmly about praying all night. "Bosh," said Moody, "I can do all my praying in ten min utes." He told a story on W ednesday last that illustrates his open eye, if so it may be called. "Street Preaching" was the theme. 'Don't put your third-rate men or your good, ttrong men who are not quick to make a point on lh street to preach. Why, I knew a first-rate minister to try it. Thei-e were two of them went together. The first to begin was a good, able man, but be had hardly spoken a dozen words before a fellow on the edge of the crowd sung out: 'The man who discovered gas did moro for mankind than all the preachers that ever lived This set the crowd a-laughing. The minister tried to go on, but he couldn't, there was so much confusion, and ho sat down.' The second got up, smiled, waved his hand. Said he: 'Look a here. tny friends ; that man out there on the edge of this crowd thinks gas is t ho greatest thing iu this world. Why, if ha 'Aero a-dying he'd be a-sending -ound to find tho gas man.' Tiu brought applause, and gave him the crowd." Untaught as Mr. Moody was ul tho start, his printed sermons are 11 mean reading. Indeed, then? are few discourses that are more worth putting into print than bis Moody never makes mistakes. He rode the second hobby eight years' ago, but he was quite prudont and has let that drop. Hls argument in favor of it was mainly: "It does good; ita wakens men to think the Lord is coming soon," an argument which is too plainly fallacious to need refutation, lie started off once on the "Books of Moses," and said somo very absurd things, which, if true, would upset Christianity. but he let go that string. Tho lmoks of Moses are a kind of mauvais pas for any but scholarly men. Even Rev. John Hall, if report be true, was glad to recall an edition of popular lectures, and. Dr. Gibson just escaped and that by the udvico of a clerical friend put ting into print what he might bo only too glad at some-later time to unsay. Mr. Moody has the good sense to know that his forte is in arousing Christian sentiment and calling men to repentance, and he rarely essays any other role. It is enough for any man to he grit in one thii'g. JZra TTD- cI7t-II--:C-: r - ' - ' : rr if J LfflNNfTR SI AMI sv ' - ' '-.- N -:.-: -rT- v . .1 I BP I mm COMPLETE Livery, and Sale Stable.

I see that bell have retty hard scratching to get yon enough to eat and wear, and so I'll leave yon with him, because it will serye you right."
