BY CHRISTINE n. CABPEXTEB. A drowsy summer afternoon hung over the dainty little village of Mays vllle, nestling among the green Con- netlcut hills. The leaves or the clus tering vines framing the pretty white cottages just stirred in the suushlnc. while even the bees and butterflies crept to shelter In the hearts of the trrrat whit? and red roses, faintly nod Uisi ftAS !VUI.1IUJiU svj;iij 4 CK7 lly Jariguis)eI .bY-&"Qza thocpen win dows of Widow May's "best room" a hum of voices stole out upon the seen ted air, and within, more than a score of busy hands fashioned divers fabrics 1 ntA fair chfinftlinDao It. trua thn tt on l.- ly sewing-circle of the Maysville church, for which a fn?r Mrs in res pect, a fact that, formed the secret cf this feminiue conclave. Wherever saw a eewing-circle without Its little titbits of gossip 7 This was no excep tlon to the rule. Presently a cherry face looked up from its owners glan cing needle t "Do you know," said she to her Zjeighbor, Mtrrat I've-qnite altered-my opinion" of Mrs. WclL, lately ? " Prav don't start 6he has not arrived yet r' "How is that? You used to think her the most extravagant woman in the village, and I'm not sure but you were quite right To my certain Tkn9wledge she-wears the most new Winces, ter bonnets, an-cf so costly, tta-eay nothing of Uie style in which il V- . l v. l .. iwurw UllUUIUll Ul litis al C J i ill! up . You don't pretend to Imagine her hus band can stand it so much better than others I might mention ?" "Oh ! no ; Mr. Wells is not rich nlv comfortable." "I can't afford two new dresses to nr neig hbor's one.'1 - "iLaybe you don't know how to economize." "Economize! I'd like you to point out another woman in Mavsville who can stretch out a dollar further'n I can!" "Yes, I can do it" "Just tell me, and I'll take a lesson riehtoiT." V'Yoa might profit by it, too, a3 I whave." "Do tell 1" "It's Mrs. Wells." "Mrs. Wells! That does beat my time to set her up as my moddle! Now, I dare say, if one really knew, ehe spends just three times as much." "Iso, she doesn't, nor in fact any more than you ao.Tr "Oh, nonsense! How do you get over the four bonnets, and the dresses and fancy furbelows one always sees about her?" The little matron shook : her head sagaciously. "No, no, Mrs. Brown, I calculate the whole matter in plain figures. Now, for Instance There were rnv two bonnets last rear Ned thought as how I should have Fomething letter than the hideous things Miss Bmith gets np In the vil lncre, to I went to New ork. Well. there were two days lost just going and comlr at the time I was most wanted. I tired myself almost to death Ioklne for something reason . able, and at last had to take the near est to my means. I thought It would do well enough till I got home, and Mrs. Weil3 called on me next day vlth4he very lovliest bonnet on her iHtaa i .ever saw. - it never cosi less than twenty-live dollars in the city. 1 1 mean that gray velvet she had last "I know all about It It didn't cost but six dollars, - and it didn't come . from the city." ' "iflx dollars ! You must be dream ing! "And where, in the name of cre- ationj could any one get such a bonnet in Maysville? Then, again, when I was in the city I saw a dress some thing lika that blue merino of Susie Wells' everybody liked so much. I thought I'd enough left to buy It for 1 Ada. I knew the stuff wasn't more than fourteen shilling a yard, and it takes Just four yards; but besides, ; there was the making and trimming. I went in and priced it It was eigh i tn dollars," - "And Busle Wells cost her mother only about nine." "That beats me out and out Where does she go to get such bargains ?" "Not very often out of Maysville." "Why, I never see them. When I po to Miss Smith for .anything new, most likely it's some notion she's bor '. rowed from the Wellscs. I do believe they set the fashions for this village for dressmakers and all." "Well, Mrs. Wells can do it if she likes, for the truth is she has a sure g-uide, .This is the secret" : "Do tell I" euspendinff her work to listen. "Yes, and what's more, Mrs. Wells doesn't buy half those new things ready-made; she makesthem herself." ' "Oh I it's all in gumption, then. I never bad any." "No, not that alone. I went down to the house yesterdry to take tea, and twe got chatting, and somehow we came to talk about economy, and I scJd I didn't see how Kme folks man ; aged to make such a show, when oth ; ;ers," doing oulte as well In the world, couldn't 'Now, you don't mean me ?' vllle people do think you are awful ex travagani.' ;nyr said she. -Be-C-au;-e you have so many new things 'and made so costly, and the children are always furbelow enouehtocost a Finall fortune.' Isow, I'll warrant,' said she. 'that all mine and the chil- ; dren's new things together don't cost me any mere than yours, or any other family in the village as large as mine.' 'Why, how is that?' said 1. .'Because 'I make every penny tell, and Just be cause I've got an invaluable aid to l pire me the very best advice, and keep me acquainted with the newest fashions.-- It furnishes patterns and ideas, and telU what to get, and how to make up, so explicitly, that a body can't help understanding. I save all - the cot and time and trouble of going -to the city, for all I have to do Is to consult my Mentor for shape, style r-nd material. Tatt experience has Rsua i.irs. wells, laughing. 'Why yes,' said I bluntly : 1 do ; I can tell you, Mrs. Wells.' I went or.

There are a hundred and one other notions to add effect to a toilet; how to cut and ornament dresses, aprons, nacks, jackets, or any of the indi?pensibles in a well-reirulat svardrobe, even Uiun- der-clothinfr. "ic puts to u?e all the odd tiilA of matvMials one may-have. Nothing can go to waste.' :I wish vou would take pity on me,' said I, 'and put me on the right truck, for I've got tired of pinching and screw ing to no purpose.' With all my heart. I'm afraid you have always been, like mauy others, ?v penny wif? and a pound foolish ; but you have only to send three dollars, and pur chase a year's subscription to Dcmor- cst's Monthly Magazine. That is the aid, counselor, and helpmate I've been telling you of.' " At this juncture Mrs,Jrowu cliaw ced to glance out of the window. "I have jitt finished my t-tonr in time," said she, her voice subsiding. "There is Mrs. Wells coming up the garden path ; vou shall have her own testi mony." Bonnet and mantle disposed of, and work in hand, the new-comer was pre pared fortheconsultation by an active rehersalarom Mrs. Brown of a portion of herxnvn and her" neighbor's recent discourse. Mrs. Wells' entrance had been the signal for the resolving of the several little groupes of talkers in to a general conversation. Not a few listened anxiously for her sentence up on Mrs. lirown's narrative. , - "I am quite prepared -to endorse all I said yesterday," returned slie at its conclusion, ' smilingly surveying ' her auditors, "and 1 can even say more. Mrs. Brown kindly complimented me yesterday upon the arrangements of my table, and more than one of you praised the trifles in the way of pastry and other refreshments I contributed to: the refreshment tablo of our last year's, fair. . The household depart ment of the Magazine was my guide; it is especially devoted to items of in terest to housekeepers. You have seen such practical illustrations of the val ue of its various receipts, that I need scarcely dwell upon it." "Whero..did you learn of the exU tencecf your oracle?" qneationed Mr. Hart "I read ofitinthe village paper." "Oh, we don't take that." "Not take the Maysville Times t I'm surprised. WThy, it's to every ene's interest to take the local papers. Yoi get your money's worth over and over. " I bhould as lief be out of. the world as be without the news. My husband saj's he sets as much store by them as I do by my Demorest's Month ly. That must have been the reason why Mr. Wells did so much better by his grain and hay than Mr. Hart. You see he had the advantageof know ing how to sell, and when and where to lind a good customer, and all this through the paper, while neighbor Hart, even though he's quite as shrewd at bargaining, had to trust to luck after all. Mr. Wells says he finds so many items of use to him about gardening, and there are tbe quotations from the cily markets. It won't do to trust to hearsay. You want a reliable, source for such infor mation. We watch the paper, and are generally just about right for a very good sale. Just make a trial of it, and if you don't confess that you wonder how you ever did without it, I'll pay the cost of your nubscription." Before any one could reply there was a slight stir at the doorway, and the next moment a chorus of voices welcomed the good shepherd of the Maysville flock among hi people, v- "W hat have you there?" said Jen nie Kip, -the pott and bcllepar excel lence of the village, as, after the greet ings were over, the reverend gentle man sat dotvn before tho table and be gan divesting a small packet he had carried of its wrapping. "Somcthingthat I fancied might be of use and interest to you ladies in the pursuance of your Kood work ; De morest's Monthly Magazine.1' There was a rapid interchange . of glances among the needle-workers. "I thought you disapproved of light reading," ventured Miss Kip, mis chievously. ' . : ; " " , "So I do, except when, like the lit erary department of this Magazine, it is instructive, entertaining, and cal culated to exert a strong moral influ ence over our minds; This Monthly is a great favorite at the parsonage.- I am a regular subscriler, for I scarcely think we could do without it. What I presume might be of special service now, was this department of fashions, about which I know but little, but which my wife affirms alwaj-s con tains the most valuable suggestions resjxcting wearing apparel." "I have just- been testifying to that before you came In," remarked Mrs. Wells. "And I remember a recom mendation from a friend of mine in Greenfield. Her husband is a builder, and she writes me he is lauding the Architectural Department of the Mag azine. He considers this feature alone renders it valuable, because its plans and diagrams are good and adaptable. My children hail its appearance quite as gladly as I do. I read aloud to them from itsliterary portion, because I find its general toue so pure and elevating. I think it a desirable addition to every household in Maysville." "And I," chimed in the minister. "My boys and girls take special de light in its engravings. It has incul cated a taste for art among them. I think its refining , influence, the va riety it combines, and its neat dress, render it an ornament for any parlbr table in tho village." "Any one of its peculiarities its full-sized patterns, its braid and cm broidery sheets, or twelve excellent sheets of music is worth fair more than the cost of a year's subscription," suggested Mrs. Wells. "And besides all this, each subscriber receives a val uable premium." . "I snail subscribe," exclaimed Mrs. Brown. 1 "And I," said her neighbor. The words were echoed from all parts of the room. "Why not make ur a club." suzsres- ted the pastor, "and give your orders to Mrs. wells." -"I should like that very much." re sumed the latter. "I will tell you why, frankly. There are great in ducements offered for this purpose. For twenty subscriptions at three dol lars each, while every individual re ceives a premium, I should come into possession of a Family Sewing Ma chine. Such a treasure !" "You are quite deserving of such a prize, a3 the first to establish the mer its of the Magazine here," said several. In "a few fchort weeks Mrs. Wells' sitting-room boasted of a sewing-machine, and each member of the club a copy of the magazine, v- - "How do you like it how do you like it?", asked . the various Mays ville tes, a3 thev met after this impor tant event "It has all the virtues claimed for It Tho fashion gossip of ferg reallv new and accentable ideas. because they emenate from the actual depot of the metropolitan modes, and are not a revised apd far bled-ovor re hash of old styles. Iti, in truth, an actual 'mirror of fashions.' - : r Soon so said all Maysville, except Miss Smith, who had hitherto been quite successful in palming off her antiquated Ttylcs' upon -the villagers, and who now found, her .-"occupation gone." - :- i t .? 'i j v : "What shall Tdo?" saidshr, wring? ing her hands in despair, to a sympa thizing, gentle soul, who chanced to be a member of Mrs. Wells' club. "I cannot say, unless you tike Dc inoresCs Mouthly Magazine, when you will be likely to find suggestions to help you out of your difficulties, as I most alwa3's do in my own case. Miss Smith, you had better think of it." The result of this counsel was that Miss Smith sent in her subscription. Early one bright Monday morning the good people of Maysville remarked that a marvelous change had come over the millinery and dress-making establishment they had of late Ignored. "How beautifully, you, have fitted up, Miss Smith," said her friend, who had lecn invited to take a look within. "I've started anew as a branch of Mme. Demorest's Emporium of Fash ions, the headquarters of Dcmorctit's Monthly. I'm very thankful to you for. moutionin tho Magazine to me, for you see it has helped me out of ray trouble." "How did j7ou prosper?" asked the same friend, some time later in the month, "dropping in" to see if Miss Smith's hopes had been realized. :"Oh, I never did so well ! Why, I can work with so much sutisfaction to myself and every one of my custo mers, 'and f have such a variety of beautilul styles that even the ladies from the city, boaYding hereabouts, find all they require." Time flitted swiftly by, and again the sewing-circle had met at Widow Mays. "What a vast improvement there ha3 been in our village since we have taken DemorcHVs Monthly!11 exclaim ed Mrs. Brown, during a pause in the conversation. "Mrs. Hart, did you take Mrs. Wells' advice and subscribe for the village paper?" "Yes, and I piust say, it was just as she said Mr. 'Hart and I have re solved never to do without it again. He' thinks it saves him a great deal more than his false notion of economy ever did." "That is my opinion of the Maga zine. Besides we are certainly all brighter, and better, and happier, and wiser through its influence. It is the grneral remark. " There is now one thing Jor.wiiichXLAve.a great ambi tion. That is, to make up a club large enough to get, as a premium, an organ for the church. I have already set about it by applying to some of my friends. I find I have only to show a copy of the Monthly to convince them of its merijU.. 4t speaks forituelf, and they havdbeen so enthusiastic in their appreciation as to set their names down upon my list immedi ately. Will any of you aid me?" Every voice chimed in assent. As women always do when they have a pet project at'heart, they went to work with, will and energy, and fouud their taskso easy, that jn a few days the entiro Bubscriptionwas on its journey to the Publisher of DemorcsVj Month ly.
