mortgage wilj bo foreclosed tomorrow And yon lose your home came suddenly to her face her dark eyes wet and full of pity Not love Ho was not de ceived No wonder she had some Why I thought your heart hound up in it She a keen suspicion flashing into it What else have you loat For a moment there wag a the husband and wife at each other tho oil lamp burning with uncertain yellow flashes between them I do cot ho aaid in tone though replying there is loft to that m question what did not answer by a word but stood motionless the penetrat ing doubtful look fized upon him Now Mary was not naturally a reticent woman alt her emotions bubbled straight to the surface She had been a gay giddy girl mother she kept singing jesting laughing the time and washing away her trouble in a shower of tears Her immobility now proved how deeply this last remark Youve nobody in the world No body Not even me she said slowly at last She turned to the window putting her hand for sup stood there It chair but had nursed both of the children in and little Jenny who was dead who would never lie on her breast again Did she remember She looked at it and then at him for a moment and then without a word turned and left these institutions amounting to certainties came to him tonight Ho thought that pain in this great crisis of his life had a spiritual clearness of in sight Another person might sug gested that Satan helped him It was only oclock there were two hours to pass yet before the end Ho sat by the fire pushing the poker between the bars looking around him There was nothing in the cheaply furnished pretty chamber that bad not tonight a terrible meaning for him He remembered when he had brought that very chair home two or three weeks after Jack was bom and lifting Mary out of bed had placed her in it and laid her baby in her arms That was only six years ago yet he thought of himself hen as but a boy What a perpetual frolic they made of life then 1 Hard at work and miserably poor but joking away all weariness or want full of joy and content theworldwea how many friends had they then He had learned to see things dif ferently When he set heart on pay ing off that mortgage it seemed to sud denly open his eyes to the seriousness of life It affected his religion He began to see faults in the old friends who were in the of dropping in every day find ing Marys house so pleasant ho began to fear Ms own and wifes spiritual char acter would Buffer from contact with them One Be had driven them off ho stinted and saved more and more to gather this money his ideas of dnty hard ened He had grown old and grave while Mary remained the game cheerful happy- tempered girl Tonight for the first time a doubt came to him whether ho had not been to blame her perpetual goodhumour her eager interest in people about her her singing her noisy romps with Jack all had seemed trivial to he had rebuked her incessantly for them It was a sol emn thiDg to live who could go danoing over graves had come to ha a proverb with him Could ho driven her from Driven her to a man temperament Baited her own pe wsa standing before a and ho could not help comparing own commonplace gloomy face with its black beard to the gay winning counten ance that had won her from him Ho put hand to hide from himself 1 loved her ho quietly think ing that if she had known bow much would forgiven him He tat down Searching again for se crets in tho fire Ho had become a wiser man be had been ill Bitting day by day into embers ho had learned how utterly hollow world was how were men end how faith less woro women Nothing was true but God j and God to Sam Bender meant narrow of duty there was nothing to lift out of the slough in the thought was nothing in it cither to check him in tho slow madness that nerved to tho present What maddening fancies thosor two hours brought to tlio man it is needless for us to know Tho house remained very quiet When opened it for him to enter But ha would not look at the little fellow in his whito nightgown who stood pulling at bis coat Beside him tho mantleshelf lay the pistol ready for He could not touch or look at the child but motioned him turning his back on him no remained quite She should think him asleep Bymne oclock all would be safe was part of her plan The in the hall rang out halfpast eight Nine I Bender took the pis tol and concealing it in tbia breast left tho chamber Passing the door of the room he laid hand on the wood with a sudden passionate tenderness as though it had been the boy himself Jaekey Jaekey he cried Tomor row child would bo alone without father or mother 1 It might have been different But it was too late now He went down the and entered a Email lighted room adjoining the parlour In another moment there was a roll of the street low ring at the s4ed him the fnry with which the hound pants before it falls upon prey They were in his power He crept nearer to the door held it ajar his band upon the lock He heard enter and the next moment soft rustle of Marys dress He could not distinguish her words but the tones of of her voice made him shudder Not for years had they thrilled with such trembling joy as now a low hysterical laugh not far from Crompton spoke in a whisper One raised her voice a little You do not know what today me I have waited for it for years Bender raised his hand his fingei on the trigger He puBhed the door but before it opened Mary left the parlour going lightly stairs She had rCDtly forgotten something for her flight He stood waiting her steps sounded above him When she should reopen the door would be his time She was one the stairs One moment more then she broke into the an old song an old silly habit of to sing when her heart was fall It was A is Bong He had liked it best in his old courting days he had made he sing the children to sleep with it always The pistol dropped from his hand She is true My God she is He stood there for how long he knew He heard the low murmur their voices Satan to be sure did not leave him altogether He fancied her hand in their lips meeting But the weapon I at his feet untouched Why should he not at last open the door He had a right to know their se cret whether guilty or not The man trembled Great drops of sweat wrung out on bis forehead She ia my wife She is a true wo man Though she kill me yet will I trust in her Yet there was nothing to hack the volume of suspicion but that cheery old song The hall door opened and at last were hurried voices outside and then the carriage rolled away Was she He thrust the pistol into breast and opened the door Mary stood there her face flushed tears in her eyes folding a strip of paper When she saw him she sprang forward and hugged him close the moneyl she sobbed For the mortgage crying and laugh ing till she cried again telling him be tween times that she had made it she in tumultuousfashion Could not ho understand No I dont understand he said soothing and petting her he had forgot ten to do for many a long day I have been more dull than you know Mary But its ilium 1 1 It years ago I thought I might turn it to account I went to the Academy of And I did turn it to unt in designing Dont you itand mo now Friend Matthew Saul I had a very pretty gift indeed Everybody was anxious to help me Ita such a friendly world Sam creeping closer to him So they took mo into the establish- and paid mo for deigning new pat fixtures Teh dollars a stone That was two years ago And I not drawn money until today I heard taking breath and speaking That you were not to receive your back pay So I went to Mr this afternoon and for a settlement He ia the business man and considerate and kind I I always thought how much alike i were and what good friends yon would when yon knew him It was not pay day and it took some time to make out my account But he offered to the money himself tonight that I might give it to yon in tho morning And he did bring it and there enough to pay off the mortgage and now have you nothing and nobody you can call your own not even Sam Bender only held his wife close to a breast and kissed her She was bo to his silence when be was deeply moved that she did not heed You thought me brutal mad to- light Mary Bless dear old miserable how could I be silly You have been ill and nervous and tbo disappointment today was more than you could bear I understood it all I I sept Jaekey to think ing he would comfort you Shall we go and tell Jaekey about the mortage anx iously I doubt if he would understand Perhapsnot looking blank Though Jaekey understands a great many things 1 that would surprise you a very wise child Who can that be so late Mr carriage again I The door opened and the handsome Irishman entered with a lady on arm He blushed a little as he glanced down at her laughing and looking handsomer than ever I asked leave Mrs Bender you re member once to make known my promis ed wife to you I have brought her to night has an errand to your band which she fancies will not wait Bender like pleas ant sounds in a dream How bright the fire glowed 1 What a cordial wholesome ring there was in the mans voice a low it would be good to know The girls face too was sweet and friendly he had seen it before in some pleasant time which not remember But there no woman who would not look dark dim beside Mary Where had she hidden that tender glowing beauty all these many years The very familiar room had a look which it used to wear when the first our of their married life made about them mysterious and bright Was that old time come again cheerful ruddy face wag be fore I am glad to have the chance of shaking yon by the band have been waiting for it a long time took the hand shook it No 122 Dear a Post An American paper tells a capital story a deaf gentlemans mistakes It that the procession that followed good Deacon Jonea to the last summer Rev Mr tho new of East Town found himself in tha carriage with an elderly man whom had never before met They rode in grave silence for a few momenta when tho clergyman endeavoured to improve on by conversation This a duty in which we are aged my friend ho said Hey what do you the old returned Cant yon apeak louder hard of 1 1 was remarking shouted clergy- J that a road we travelling today Sandy road You dontcall thisere sandy do ye I guess you been down to the south deestriet TheVa a stretch of road on the old pike that beats all I ever seo for hard travellin Only a week before Deacon was sick I met him his oxteam along there and the sand waa nearly up to the bubs of the wheels The Deacon used to get dret- fu riled bout that piece of road and East Town goes ahead of all creation for sand The yooog clergyman looked Wank at the unexpected turn given to remark but quickly recovering himself and raising his voice to the highest pitch he resumed the conversation Our friend has done with all the dis comforts of earth he said solemnly A small spot of ground will soon cover poor senseless clay Did you say day sir cried the old man eagerly Taint nigh so good to cover sand with as loam I to Mr Brewer last townmeeVin day If youd cart on a few dozen loads and theres acres of it on the river bank sea I youd make as pretty a piece of road as there is in But wo are slow folks in East Town sir It was perhaps fortunate for the cler gyman at that moment that the smell of newmade hay from a neighbouring field suggested a fresh train of thought Look be with a graceful wave of the hand what an emblem of the brevity of human As the grass of Ive heard all about the mortgage and the secret she whis pered Was it not delicious But I have a message for your husband Papa bade me to you Mr Bender turning with a businesslike look to Sam that he has been ill for several weeks that hor rid rheumatism it is and he had to leave the business almost entirely to Mr Morris who will make sorry that there ia one in yours and your rightful salary detained He begged me to hand you thia letter The salary is not due Sam stiffly Mr Morris will tell you that Mr Morris has no authority to speak the young lady said haughtily It the of make deductions in the case of sickness It is the best policy said Mary quietly A house loses nothing by fair dealing At least not with such my husband that little Houston who told me Where in th world is the man He came with us si ridiculous Mrs Bender But the best fellow in the world I The tears were act in his eyes when he told me how justly your husband had been treated Oh here he is Here I am Joecameinwithaskip and a flourish Here we all are Sam God bless you boy Just like a scene in a play Its a jolly good world after all now isnt it What a bad humour you were in with it today though to be sure You look as if you were cured now in an undertone where Bender stood apart with wife Ara you cured said softly touching him By an old song he said Some- timo I will tell you all Mary But let me hear your and your laugh every day You do not know from what they have saved me He stood looking at them talking to gether a smile on lips but eyes dim aa a mans seldom are in this world thinking of the song and of how many mes sengers He had in this world and how none of them ever failed in their errand Galaxy But if your first step should break down try again It will be surer and safer by It will be the trial Besides if you you will never know yourrower A man standing still and declaring inability to walk without making the effort would be a general laughing stock and so mor ally is the man in our opinion who will not test own mora and intellectual power and then gravely assure that ha has no genius or no talent or no Capacity A man with seeing eyes them shut and that be cannot sec is the trumpeter of his own im becility I and he i3 cut down I I dont calculate to cut mine till next week said his companion must not cut grass to arly and then agin you mustnt cut it too late My friend shrieked the clergyman in a last desperate attempt to make him self understood this is no place for vain conversation We are approaching tho narrow house appointed for all the living Tbey were entering the churchyard but the old man bis neck from carriage window in the opposite direction Do you mean Squire Hubbards over yonder Tis rather Theybuild all them newfangled houses that way days To my clear through to the back door Well this the aint it Much to ye parson for your remarks If you are ever to be anything you make it yourself The world is getting too practical to help drones and push thero along when there is a busy hive of workers who if anything live far too fast Yon must lift up your own feet and if you have a pair of clogs on which clatter about your heels they will soon be worn off and left behind on the dusty pathway Mark out the line which you prefer let truth be the objectglass hon esty the surveying chain and eminence the level with which you lay out your field and thus prepared with prudence on one arm and perseverance on the other you need fear no obstacle Do not bo afraid to take the first step will beget assurance and the first bring you It was the saying of an old acquaint- I have so much to do that I c not hear it One half of my time is la- ken up with my own business the other nterference of people with what does concern them Neighbourhoods driven crazy by rcporta of idle or people who watch for occasions of idal and lose no opportunity of it public regardless of its truth or injury it inflicts upon the feelings of others Gossip passes for fact and for and the nimble lie runs a league while the is pulling
