Cries stout Tom Manncring. pioneer, As into hia cabin, with weary thowf, He strides at even, his children dear A-frisk at his heals with their lambkin-ways. When Bessie looks up, "with her wifely eniilc, Trom the open letter, which yet her gaz Seems lingering in her lap the while, "It is father writes; and he asks a place, For his age with us in the backwoods here. Tie has lost his all; and both Maud and Grace Refuse him aid; and he's ill, I fear." 'Oh, ho!" And Tom, with his eyebrows knit. His axo in a corner stands, and then, With the bairns at his knee, and his plp alit, Begins to give to the news his ken. " 'Tislittlo we owe your father, Bess,' lie says at length. "And, because yon linked Tonr fate with mine In the wilderness, He never so much as a godsend winked. While lands and houses he lavished on Your sisters when they were richly wed. What say yon? Now that his fortune's gone. They've neither a roof to shield his head?" "No, Tom.

"Let me kiss you first, Tom. There! I knew Just what you would say," says the bouny wife, And 6he straightway up to the table drew, Where her pen, .with phrases ot kindness rife. Soon fashioned a letter, whose homely pith Was, "Haste, my father, oh, haste to mo I Hero is shelter and rest for your gray head with .y Tom, anil me, and the children threo." "Now listen, sho says; and her goodrnan hears The simple lines from her fall heart writ, While her brown eyes glistened with happ7 tears, And tho cnrly-patcs at their elliows flit.

" t r?XtvlV.; VlV ' f " i One blusterous, iiilit Mrs. Jornin?; hani leaned back in Iter cozy nrinclinii with a sigh of selfish comfort as she laid the Japanese 6crccn between her delicate face and the ardent fire. fcfhe was a handsome woman, who wore diamonds and velvet 'is a queen wears her royal robes a wealthy wo man used to command -mid control; haughty and dogmatic in her uosilive ness. And this evening she was iu her most positive, imperious mood, as she nat there, making her decision about Lila Uarton. Then she rang for lights, an 1 by tho servant sent a message lor. 3diss "llar ton to wait upon her as soon its Mas ter Horace and Miss Giuuvra could dispense with her services. It was ten minutes later when Lita obeyed the summons ami came into Mrs. Jerniiighain'd presence a slen ticr, pale-laced girl of sixteen or sev enteen, with lovely brown eyes, soft as velvet, and a great mass of brown hair on her small, graceful head a delicate, rclliicd, thoughtful-looking gii J, who bore the indisputable traces of having worked almost beyond her strength. She came quietly near to Mrs. Jer liinghaui, and stood awaiting that lady's pleasure. "1 sent to have a word with you on a subject very distasteful to me, in deed, Miss liarton," Mrs. Jerniiig hain began, coldly. "I refer to a dis play of forwardness and boldness on your part towards certain gentlemen 1 might name, which has been called to my attention more than once. I de sire to K;iy thnt I sliall not tolerate nny further attempts on your pirt. Miss liarton, to flirt with gentleman visiting at the house notably with Doctor Dormer. Ah, do not inter rupt me, and, I am indignantly sorry to 6ay, my son also!'' "Mrs. Barton, you " Lila attempted" to gasp her protest; but "the cold, relentless voice reso lutely hushed her. "Denials are more than useless, Miss Barton. It is a notorious fact that you, a mere servant a common nursery-governess and seamstress, boldly attempted to engross Doctor Dor mer's attention hist night an 1 one or two evenings last week when you were ordered to attend to the chil dren in the drawing-room. Again, upon more than one occasion, you have inveigled my son into conversa tions with yoli you, whom his mo ther hires as a servant!

"Mrs. Jcrningham," she interrupted, hotly,"! cannot permit you to launch 6tich a torrent of abuse at inc. It is not true that I have tried to llirt with your guests or your son. Doctor Dormer spoke to me, and I answered, as anyone would have done. As to your son " And her lips curled involuntarily a gesture which did not escape Mrs. Jcrningham's eyes. "We will uot discuss tlio subject For Vice-President of tlie United States, GEN. CHESTER A. ARTHUR. OF 1TEW YOZRIEZ. further. You have acted disgrace fully, and, iu justice to my little innocent children, I have decided to remove them from your care over them. You are discharged from to night, and in place of a month's no tice you can have a month's wages, as is my custom with all my servants. As to a character," and the cold eyes took a malicious look at the pale, trembling girl, "of course, that is out of the question. That will do, Miss Barton." She pushed some gold pieces to wards her, but Lila tlid not touch them. Instead, her face grew suddenly cold and haughty, and she walked out without any further protest. And, somehow, Mis. Jcrningham realized that she had done something more th in simply dischargo a ser vant. "It's a shame a Aunt Tabith said, 4 ' burning shame!" indignantly. "It seems to me that nowadays the licit You do nothing but mini tne poor. poor child, you don't cry any more about it! Th.it Jerningham woman isn't any very great shakes herself, you take my word for it, or she'd not be thinking such things about you. Don't cry, Lila. Cheer up, anil we'll out for a walk in the park thii afternoon, eh ?" But Lila would not cheer up, nor did she iro with dear old aunt Ta bitha for a walk to the park. In stead, she had cried and worried her fcelf into a hot fever that delieiT all home remedies a fever that ran higher and hotter, until even aunt Tabitlia thought it was best to send for a doctor; and a doctor was sent for by little Tony Win ton, next lloor above. "And be quick about it, too," she said, slipping a penny into his grimy little paw. "You can run round to Doctor Brown's in a few minutes, I know, and tell hiin to come round." But Dr. Brown wasn't at home out of town for several days and Tony's wits were puzzled to know whether, so long as Miss Lila was so awfully ill, one doctor wasn't just as good as another; and, in that full belief, ho rushed oil' for his mother's family physician, to find Dr. Sampson also not available. And then, td'stand disconsolately at a street corner, wondering hat ou earth would become of Miss Lila, just as a doctor's carriage passed him evidently a doctor's, and a well-to-do one, too, as witness the well-appointed brougham, tho proud-stepping horse, the handsome robe. And ragged little Tony, all una ware he was an instrument of unalter able fate, succeeded in attracting Dr. Dormer's attention. "Hi! stop! You're wanted at Miss Lila's Barton's, No. 74 Canford street sharp, too! Goin'?" Lila Barton I Koy Dormer was surprised, and conscious of a pleasure able sensation along with it. "All right, my boy! I'll bq there beiore you are." And sure enough, when Tony reached home, there stood tho doc tor's carriage at the door, an object of envious admiration for a score of ur chins; while Uoy Dormer was sitting in aunt Tabitha'a snug little parlor, explaining the cause of his appear ance, and listening to her account of Lila's illness. "And now, if you'll allow mc to sec my patient he said. And then he went in, to find Lily delirious and talkative, and entirely unconscious. "Of course it is not true," she said, as he sat down beside the pure white cot. "I never flirted with Martin Jcrningham, or Doctor Dormer, either. It wasn't fair of her to turn me olT without a character, was it? And aunt Tabitha and I are so poor." And, although he knew there was no recognition iu her bright eyes, still his face liu-died. "She is very ill," he said, gravely. "I will s-.'C her again this afternoon, Mrs. Lawson." That was tho beginning of their friendship ; and when, three months later, Lila was sufficiently restored to accept a situation as traveling com panion to a lady, she knew that her most valued friend in all the world was Dr. Dormer. A perfect afternoon, even for la belle Pari, and Mrs. Jerningham, leaning back in her chair beside the window of her grande salon, thought that life in the gay city was tho one thing de sirable, and would be the one glorious thing, were it not for her son Martin. For her son, her darling, her chief pride, for whom nothing iu the world was too good ; for whom marriageable maidens and shrewd mothers had an gled visioly and linvisibly, who never yet had been disappointed or thwart ed in all his life, was in a state of des peration and distress that made Mrs. Jcrningham wonder, in agitation and disinav, what would bj the result of it all." Aud "it all" meant that Martin Jcr niugliam was in love with Mrs. "War ringdale's charming young friend and companion our own Lila Barton, whom, two years before, Mrs. Jcruing liani had turned out of doors. "She will not listen to me," Martin had said to his mother, before he went out that afternoon. "I tell you I must have her, too before another twenty four hours goes over my head, mother. Utdoss 1 get her for my wife, Pll shoot myself just as euro as fate. I ' I vs ..v;xv VNfc 1 r -N. -i,A. ,u "'SV .' never cared so much for anything or anybody before, and its only the memory of your cruel treatment of her tho tec ling that 6hc thinks you would not sanction an that keeps us apart." engagement "You think that?" slie said, trem bling. "1 know it," ho answered, hotly. "She is gracious and kind, but beyond that, I tell you her just pride restrains her. Look here, mother, it you want toito me a favor if vou don't want to have me brought in dead some time you will go and tell her you want her for your daughter." And Mrs. JeiHiingham knew, as 6hc looked upon her son's handsome, hag gard lace, that ewn if it killed her to so humble herself, she must do it for his sake. "It is awfully cruel of you," 6ho said pitcously, nnd he interrupted her, firmly "You can tako your choice Lila Barton for your daughter, or get along without me!" "Martin!" "I mean it. She won't refuse mo if you ask her. By Jove ! she is the only, woman in the world I shall ever ask. Sho shall accept mc!" "I think there is no danger of her refusing such ail offer," she said, a lit tle of tlie old scornfulncss in her voice. "Of course you will go," he answer ed, decidedly. "When I come back at seven to dinner, I shall hear what you have to say from her." Then he had gone, and Mrs. Jcr ningham had sat in trouble and dis may, thinking it all out, wondering how she could accomplish her errand, and yet not sacrifice her pride how she could conciliate Lila Barton, nnd yet give her to understand it was an honor she had come to offer her. Sho ordered her carriage, and, dress ed in a most elaborate toilet, was driven to Mrs. Warringdalc's, where, surrounded by all the luxuries of wealth and refinement, Lila Bartou had ay on her way to heart, and made not only the confidential friend, but the beloved daughter aud choice com panion. As Mrs. AVarningdale's friend, socie ty had opened it most exclusive doors, aud our little Lila had found herself almost unconsciously, a pet and favor ite iu pleasant social circles where her personal attractiveness, her sweet wiiisoniencss, her refined intelligence, held the position given her. And Martin Jerningham had renew ed his acquaintance with-his mother's discharged governess, and Tii is was the result Mrs. Jerniug ham waiting in Mrs. Warringdalc's parlor for Lila Barton to come, with whom sho was to plead in her son's behalf It seemed like some impossible bur lesque, as she waited, and there was a sharp struggle within her between pride and love for her son that idol and darling who had never been de nied, and who ruled her with a rod of iron. For his sake. Only, solely for his sake. And then Lila Barton came in a vision of elegance, and loveliness, and sweetness in her soft, white dress. She greeted Mrs. Jerningham in a courteous way, and then waited in quiringly, and, perhaps, just a trifle haughtily. Aud Mrs. Jerningham rushed at once into her errand. "X j doubt you will be quite surpris ed to receive a message ot which I am bearer, because usually such messages are delivered personally, Miss Barton. But, as 1 am willing to remove any obstacle from the way to my son's happiness, I determined that in no better way could the accomplishment of his wishes be decided than by my coming iu a perfectly friendly way to you." She had not sacrificed her dignity, and certainly had spoken very well. And Lila, her lace expressive of surprise, listened. "I think 1 do not at all understand j'ou, Mrs. Jerningham. You have evidently undertaken some commis sion from your son, but what, might I inquire?" This from the girl she had dis graced! But she nut the curb on her self, and went blandly on, for her boy's sake "Your delicacy certainly does you credit, I cannot express how dclight- lully charming 1 hud it, my dear Miss Barton, its, 1 ain commissioned by my son to make you an offer of his hand, his name, his position, his affec tions. Anl, JUiss Barton, it you will charitably permit ine, I cordially en dorse whatever will conduce to Mar tin's happiness." And, tor the first tune in her life. Mrs. Jerninghain realized that she had eaten humble-pie. A curious little look had swept over Lila's lac. "Will you tell Mr. Jcrningham for me, please, tint in the society in which I move it is liol ctistoiuary forgentlcin'Mi to do their proposals of marriage by proxy? Will vmu also be kind enough to tell him that under any circum stances I could not possibly consider his offer? And will you iuform him that I have been engaged to Doctor Dormer for the past three months? And, as Mrs. Warringdalc's carriage is waiting, and I have an engagement at half-past live, be so good as to ex cuse me, Mrs, Jerningham." And so Lila's turn came, and like a young duchcs3, she bowed to the wo man who had, all unconsciously, been her fate, while Mrs. Jerningham went back to her son. But as, a year afterwards, Mrs. Dor mer, sitting in her drawing-room, read aloud to aunt Tabitha the notice of Martin Jcrningham's marriage, it was self-evident he did not commit the 6uicide lie threatened unless rushing into marriage with a pretty girl, after a month's acquaintance, be considered as such.

CAN WOMEN DRIVE I An Old LIverjnian's Experience of the Sex. (Albany Journal. "Isn't it rather singular that women never learn how to drive a horse prop erly V" remarks some irate man as he inspects a tired animal, and finds the bridle over its ears, and the bits half way down its throat. "But women can drive," cries a cham pion of the sex. "Don't they drive sev en or eight miles to market with veg etables or loads of hay ? Don't they take their babies out to rido whenever they can get hold of a horse? Why, there never was a weman who could not drive, and some of them cau han dle a horse much better than their hus bands can." "Can women drive, and do you let them handle your best horses?" were the questions put to a good-natured livery keeper by an interested party. "Drive?'' answered the letter-out of equines, "I should think they could; but as to letting them our best horses, that is another matter. We have hors es in our stables few men can drive. We keep what we call safe horses for ladies' use the kind that will go any where if you just guide them, old fam ily nags, sensible enough to trot along and mind their own business, and not fret if they are pulled two ways at once." "Do you object to letting herses out for women to drive?" "No, indeed; we have from twelve to fifteen ladies tt week come to uj for horses, aud Ave giye them good ones, too; but somehow women tret horses when they drive them, so we don't care to give theiu high-spirited animals. Now look at that sorrel," pointing to one from whom the harness had just been removed. "I let that horse this morning to a bit of a woman with wrists no bigger than my two lingers. I didn't want to let it go, because it's such an ugly puller. 1 told her it had a mouth like iron, but she said she' wanted te take an old aunt, that was visiting hei, out to see the town, and she drove off quietly enough. But half an hour after I saw her coming down Woodward avenue Iiko a streak of lightning, everybody running to get out of the way, and the old aunt hang ing on for dear life. She just had the lines wound around those little wrists, and braced her feet on the dash board, and when she came to a corner whisk ed round it on one wheel. The rig camo in all right, but that horse won't get its breath for a week." "Do they often meet with accidents and have a smash-up?" "No. It is curious, but a woman will take a team through a dozen hair breadth escapes and bring it back all right. Wo have any amount of trouble with men, who tako our best rigs, get on a spree, and break things all to pie ces. A woman is either more cautious, or she will call upon every man in sight to help her out of the scrape, Thy are more apt to lose their heads in a crowd or collision, but there is most always some special providence at hand to help them. If you notice, the most disastrous runaways happen when some man has the reins." Further talk developed the fact that women were not considerate in their management of horses. They forget to blanket them in winter aud to tie them in the shade in summer. They some times use the reins as hitching straps, and have a settled dislike to learning proper names fei harness. Not one in a hundred could tell the difference be tween the surcingle and the martin gale, or had the least idea to which end of the animal the crupper belonged, and if compelled to divest ahorse of its trappings would undo every buckle in the service, and take the collar off over the animal's head, to all of which the intelligent beast would submit, as if charmed, by being steadily talked to during the process in the bewitching tones of a woman s voice. All of this may be a libel on the sex, but it is certainly true that when an old family horse, with a ten-minute gait, comes see-sawing down the street with a comically reckless air of run ning away, a woman's head look3 out from under the buggy top, a woman's hand guides the steed in its eccentric orbit, and a woman's voice shouts, in distinct tones, "Wh-o-o-a-a," at the same moment that the reins are jerked and the whip.applied, while pedestri ans scud to the sidewalk in terror ; and however liable a woman is to run over a cow or a street car, she will always stop or turn out for a baby. This is one of the instincts ef her maternal heart, to which even "get up !gl-a-n-g" is sacrificed. Bill English is shown up as the poor man's friend Avith a vengeance by the correspondent of the Cincinnati Com mercial. That industrious scribe, a few days atro, looked over the court re cords at Indianapolis, and found that from the latter part of ls3 to the end of 1879, English, as plaintiff, had se cured judgments for foreclosures of mortgages apainst 18 defendants, or an averrge of neatly one for every week of the time. During about the Fame length of time he took 52 Sher iffs deeds for property foreclosed. In addition to the above he appears on the records to be the owner of 78 ti tles against real estate, nearly all the certificates having been issued in April 1879, and March, 1880.
