I wonder how miioli mis chief you havo made this afternoon; T am so sorry you cannot bo trusted;" and poor, discouraged Mrs. Green looked as if alio could endure no more. A few days previous to Daisy's esca pade, Mr. and Mrs. Given had boon speaking together of Mis'? Lawronco, whom thoy both greatly admired, and Mrs. Green had said that it was a won der that so loyoly a woman had been allowed to remain unmarried, and that sho should think Mr. Adams would try and get hor, adding: "I don't boliovo sho could help liking him." It was this conversation that Daisy had so strange ly misrepresented. Mrs. Green went to sco Miss Lawronco without dolfty, told hor of tho message which tho child had delivered, and then made a full and honest confossion of tho conversation which had passed between herself and husband. Miss Lawrence was greatly relieved to iind that her friend had not spoken slightingly of hor as Daisy's words had seemod to indicate, and tho two ladies parted as sineoro frionds as over. A few days later Mr. Green met Mr. Chollis on tho street, and after chatting a fow moments, tho latter, who was smoking, offered his pastor a cigar. A littlo surprised, yot taking tho offer as a joke, Mr. Green lauglilftgly refused. "Don't bo blushful about it," said Mr. Cheliis, " wo havo found you out; Daisy let tho cat out of tho bag' tho other day." " I don't understand you," said Mr. Green, with a bewildered look. "Daisy told us tho other day that you woro a smoker," and Mr. Chollis re peated tho conversation which had Sussed between thorn on tho occasion of aisv's call. "Well! Well! oxclaimcd tho fathor of that small niiscliiof-makcr, " tho fact is, I havo boon inhaling iodine for my tliroat, and Daisy calls it smoking; L keep my inhaler down cellar, and uso it there because tho odor is so oflonslvo. But I should think peonlo would make allowances for children's stories. Daisy always gets things mixed and distorted in somo way." Mr. Chollis mado profuso apologies for having credited such a tiling of his pastor for a moment, but ho thought with dismay of the dozen or moro par ticular friends to whom ho had confi dentially imnartod tho fact that their pastor was. mluictou to smoKing. Thoro was also in the depths of his worldly heart a secret regret at having found that tho Haw in his pastor's eliaractor was wholly imaginary, yet lie was really an honorable man, and lost no timo in contradicting tho story lie had started, and explaining its harmless origin. But tho end was not yot. Whenever Mr. Adams mot Miss Lawronco, Daisy's words would como into Ids mind, and tho idea of Miss Lawronco "falling into his arms" did not seem at all distaste ful, in fact each timo thoy mot ho was moro impressed that sho would make a very desirable arnifiill, and at last, in spito of Miss Lawrence's blushes and ovidont avoidance of his attentions, he proposed and was accepted. And Daisy Green, aside from father and mother, has no moro devoted friends than Mr. and Mrs. Adams. Thoy dato all their happiness from the day on which Daisy wont out raakinir parish calls. Mrs. Susie A. Jiisbcc, in Uohlcn Knlc Tliat Was Who Ho Was. Not long sineo a young lady of Now City took it into hor head to get York Citv married without paternal consont. The young man whom sho lovod was ob jected to by hor father on tlio ground that ho was not well enough off, as fat as tlio world's goods woro concerned, to tako caro of his daughter, and, although ho had novor seen his intended son-in-law, ho asserted that ho was not compo tent to earn for her a respectable living. In spito of opposition, however, tho wed ding took placo at the timo appointed, anil it is needless to say that tlio father was not numbered among the guests. Tho young peonlo found a modest homo in tho neighborhood of tlio parental man sion, and still the irate father refused to recognize them. But ho was not of an unsocial nature, and lie was noted for making acquaintances on horse-cars on his way to and from business. It was not stranjro. therefore, that lie entered into conversation with a sociablo young man at Ills sido on his way homo tlio otlior evening, but it was a littlo sur prising, as lie was rather cautious, that no should havo been so entirely fasci nated by tlio young man's remarks. "Why," ho said, "you aro a person oxaotfy after my own heart; you display in your words a remarkable business tact, and aro destined to be a rich man. If it is not an impertinent question, who are you and what is your name?" "1 nm your son-in-law," quietly obsorved tho future Vanderbilt, as ho motioned to tho conductor to stop t.io car. -- Cocoanut Pudding: Boat two eggs with ono cupful of new milk: add ono 'quartor of a pound of grated cocoanut; mix it with throe tablespoonfuls each of grated bread and powdered sugar, two rouncos of molted outtor, five ounces of raisins, and ono toaspoonful of grated lomon-peol; boat tho whole woll to gether; pour tlio mixture into a buttorod dish, and bako in a slow oven; then turn it out, dust sugar over it and serve.
