By the nchlup of nur cornr ,
By the need t f stiller hnrnn ,
By the ess Mils , MR and digger ,
By the landlord's hateful figure ,
By the toll we have to raise
Money for these settling days ;
By the houeo that "tnkoa us In , "

By the deuce to pay at home ,

Tying her bonnet under her chin
Is not where the harm to thac youth comes
in ;
Nor an office dark ; but n big airy hall
With green-covered table and cue and 1

Some friendn , ft supper and a little gin
There's where the harm to that youth
comes In.
If a man can enj ) r the good things of life ,
Why rbould be growl at the wants of hie
wife ,
And fume and scold and tear acd roar ,
And lay all the ilia of the world at hei
door ?
And why ehould the fairy have roped
him in.
By tying her bonnet under her chin ?

Tbo Mayor and the Gear ,
[ An incident of the term of Andy J
Bryant , ex-mayor of San Francisco. ]
His honor sat in busy state ,
When soft the sanctum door
Opened n timid inch , nnd there
Beneath the knob ho saw
A little midget's dirty face
That team had veined o'er.
"Please , sir , I come about my gnat ;
They've got him In the pound "
"Get out , you little rascal , you1 !
The city said.andMfrowned.
A big tear frjin the tiny nose
Fell piteous on the ground.
An hour ticked by ; the chic gaze ,
DrawnJby o'plgmy sigh ,
Saw still the pona'rons door behind ;
That anaall but'steadfast eye
Strained like the shipwrecked Bailor's t
Some distant hope descry.
"Please , air , he'a such a little goat ,
He slipped our palings through.
He never butts the dogs or girls ;
'Deed , sir , ho never do "
And then with sudden wile he said ,
"Hlsn ' ' "
ineis'Andy'too.
Now Bryant plays a double part ;
Of all known mayors , 'tis said ,
He carries round the softest heart ,
Beneath the hardest head ,
He paused then seized his pen , andsoo
The goat's reprieve was read.
"Did yon put 'Andv1 in ? Because
As by the pound I came
I saw they had a haap er coats ,
And 'This is ' "
put : goat lame.
The mayor's eye twinkled ; solemnly
lie wrote the prisoner's name.
A wild whoop in the corridor
Gave every ear a twinge.
But In a moment once again
The door creaked on its hinge ;
A brown , reluctant paw was seen ,
A sleeve with ragged fringe.
"Here lir-take thia-'fur ' "
, - - keeps , 1
said ,
Half smiling , half forlorn
A huge glans "alley" dropped and rolle
The city's carpet on.
Thn door shut with a hasty snap

I hnrrtcd home. Perhaps there was
a loiter with money In It. There was
nothlug. I must find the lady but
how ? She had loft no address. She
had hardly spoken to mo. I thought
1 hoard her say that she would oomo
again , and I bolluvo she had fixed on
the very day. There was but one
chauoo In a thousand. I must stand
in the street and wait until nho ap.
peared.
I hastened back aud took up my
position near the shop , I scanned
every woman passing by. It was
bitterly cold and raw , and the wind
chilled mo. I was faint with aux
iety. Had I only known more of the
language I would have asked n police
man to take ino to the American con
ul , the minister. I was In despair
Suddenly a chrrUgo drove up , a foot ,
man opoiiod the door , and a lady ole

the Birootj It wan the Russian lady
With my heart In uiy mouth I told
her my pitiful story aud bogged her
to help mo. K she wanted a servant ,
would she only try me ? I had it
sowing machlno , and would inako her

with har until I could wrlto to mj
people at home ; they would oond ntu
money , and I could got back to the
United States. My words must Jmvo

broken hearted , for at first she hardly
scorned to understand mo. _
"I am without n friend in the
world hero a poor American woman ,
thousands of miles from her homo "
She looked stoadtattly at mo , then
oponrd her partomonuaio.
"No , uo , " I said , "I want no
monoy. I cannot bog. I am not yet
so poor as to ask alms. Bat do you
not roninmbor mo ? The store IB
closed. The man who kept It has
run away. I showed you the way
the machine was worked. "
Then eho scanned mo quickly ; next
cross qupsdoncd me sharply.
"How could a younp girl trust hrr.
self alone in thla strange countrj ? " she
asked.
' 'I was not alono. Two other young
women came from the United States
with inc. Two weeki ago they were
sent homo , and the miserable man in
charge induced mo to stay , promising
to glvo mo money ononph at the end oi

United States. Might not the police

rageously swindled. "
' 'Tho police ? And my drese am 1
to lose It ? " the lady asked Impatiently
"Not all of it. The skirt is In the
shop , the body , the waist is in mj
room , almost finished " It seemed tc
mo dreadful that In my agony she
should talk abont her dross.
"Where do you live ? " she inqulroc
abruptly. I told hor. "Qet into th

wo walked to my lodging. I openoc
the door. On the table was he
baeque. It did not scorn to intoroa
hor. She picked It up , however
glanced at it a moment , then throw 1
down. She examined the sowing inn
chine.

"How long did you a y it vrouli

"Two weeks perhops less. "
"Would It dlifi nre my handt ?
She took off her gloves , showed hi
woll-cared-for hands , her fingers gill
terlng with rings.
"Your beautiful hands would hardl
bo soiled. "
"Well , then , glvo mo a lesson t
orjca at once I will pay you fo
your trouble. "
I expressed my gratitude with a !
most tears in my eyes. "I have a

out an apron. "I will run a tnc

"Nonsense. Take the waist an

"But It Is quite finished , and an

Next morning early there was a low
knock at my door. I opened it , and a
woman plainly dressed rntorod. She
did not say a word , She placed a
bundle she hold in her hand In a chair ,
and at once went to the machlno , took
up the bodloo , , and commenced sow-
Ing.

Partnership. I can find the funds ,
The contents of the shop will probably
bo sold out , and you will bo able to

I had not a word to say. I brought
a wrench , n screw-driver , an oil-can ,
and unloosened the working parts of
the machine She took the ell-can
and bent over the machine , studying
It. I noticed that she touched with
her white fiugora all the grimy part ? ,
until her hands wcro soiled.
"It Is by no moms as complicated
aa a revolt or , " she said.
I made no comment as I put the
working parts together , She was very
silent , un/klng incessantly on some

her. I a\t near her toaontng her
what to do. She worked on until It
was past uoon. "Is it not tluio now to

In "our bo-

gina from to-day. I am to bo capital

quarter of aa hour. " I was so astonIshed -
Ishod as to bo speechless. In a trloo
t she was back , loaded down with pack-
3 ages. She had a loaf of broad , a
ploco of choose , a pot of preserves , a
breast of smoked goose , eomo salted 1
cucumbers. "I have a samovar , but

and burned It. I did not question

That night when wo were m bed ,

would never have trusted you. You

I clung convulsively to her and bade
her bo quiet.
"Through my veins , child , there

a I looked at her , her face pillowed ot
