tigercss she was going to a ball and her escort kas to be the catch of the season m herbert hammond the hairdresser had doae his ufik her jewels ky before her on her dressingfable her toilet vraa finished save the beautiful basque which was to complete it this had been sent to a young embroideress to cover with a dainty pattern of leaves and blossoms sad was not yet brought home one could have excused a good deal of temper oh snch an oocaaioa but sliss bertha was in a boiling rage of the most tremendous description she threatened to commit sneide to slap any one whotpoke to her to break the win dows in fact tipsy woman have been taken to the statioqhooae in a lesa excited condition but for the fact of the close proximity of neighbors hiss bertha woald have vented her feelings in a- aeries of ahrieka i dont believe it will ever come the wailecc i never was so disappointed never i and tberiyk that horrid itisa green goin ia a paris dres and shell dance with herbert if she can catch him ehe will do it tonight and poor me left to die an old maid and go and live in the country with aunt billings perhaps for you know we are living up to our income and pa is sure to tail orwnielhicg oh that jacket my whole future depends on it- i couldnt you wear your pale bloe its pretty said her mother after all youve only had it on occe id die first t cried miss uertha bat at this moment the girl who opened the doar ran in with a parcel the basque kiss she said and bertha seized the package eagerly and ckjcingoct the erqasite mug of em broidery slipped her arms into the sleeves and began to halloa it aboat her waist there the said all aglow with tickled vanity isnt it becoming and after all herbert isnt here yet theres the carriage now pfeae miss said the girl bessie the joung woman said that she would like a little money tonight sho said excuse her but she really is ia need she looks so poor and coughs dreadfully said the girl looking at mrs hoyt well bertha dear youve got the money i know said mrs hoyt yes i have said the young lady and id hate paid her today if she hadnt served me eo bat i shant cow jast to pan- isn her i shall keep it and pay her just when i liie ell her so oh miss cried the girl excuse me for speaking but she said she hadnt had anything to eat today she couldnt work fast because she fainted twice and she couldnt get here for weakness oh miss leave the room raid bertha and mother hold your tongue just gie the girl my message bessie who had a temper too ran down stairs and told the shivering woman at the door what had been said in aloud tone of voice and in mr herbert hammonds presence the poor bcaimstress trembled and tried to keep back her tears can ehe not let me have a little she pleaded i need it for food i told her so said the girl bat she didnt care youd better come back after awhile when missus i alone the old lady is a deal kinder than miss but ehes afraid of her shell pay you something anyway if miss isnt here to over rule her she wanted miss to pay you cow but she got angry at having wailed shes got the temper of a cat and the selfishness of a pig and i aint going to stay with her for any wages i herbert hammond waiting near the parlor door heardeverj word he saw the pale face grow paler and was moved with indignation as the door closed and the servant retreated he stepped out into the hall it was his intention to offer the girl some little gift of money her want was so apparent that he felt it his duty but be fore he had contrived to discover the secret of the lock which was one of those patent affairs apparently invented to keep people from getting out of a honae the girl had vanished he looked up and down the bticet and even btepped put into the snow but could see no one and a voice modu lated to the most amiable society tone sounded behind him ah mr hammond i am keeping you very late you will forgive me it was a workwomans fault benignant smiling graceful no con temptuous smile on bis handsome lip no trace of a frown upon the pencilled brow the carriage was at the door he handed her inte it but the white tearstained face of thfi poor seamstress haunted him all the evening even whflehe waltzed with the beautiful bertha or sat by her side at the flowerdecked table envied by many of the men for being the favored escort of the moat beautifal woman present long before a little girl a ohild in a white sipuaed to look at him with just buchj eyes when childish troubles made them ovedlaiw kosctta ho said to him self over and over again why should that poor girl remind mo of little rowtu at an early hour they drove home bertha valued that drive more than sho did ho ball u gave herbert the most favorable opportunity for a proposition uowcvcrhe did not make it he cer tainly paid the conventional compliments but there was only lip service in thera had bertha but known it her maids vivid il coarse description of ber mistress haunted him certainly it might have beeuan unfair one the girl might be a servant dismissed for some fault and miss bertha might simply be ignorant of tbe uocd of the embroidercaa and provoked as he had been by hie tailors neglect at times it might be merely carelessness still he was not in the mood to put his lifes happi- ness into this girls hands when the carriage drew up before her homo he slipped out and took her gloved hand with no flatter of the heart but in a minute more he felt it throb furiously beneath his vest an awful pity a great horror thrill ed him through and through upon the steps a black object scarcely discernible in the faint moonlight save fr the pallid face and hands lay the figure of a woman he knew before he bent over her that she was the seams tress who had hsen turned from the door she had returned as bessie advised and fainted or fallen here bertha with a scream had flown tip the steps and rung he door bell violently the door was opened the light- from the hall flashed over herberts troubled face as he lit tod the little figure in hisarms and with out a word of explanation or apology bore it into the house and laid it softly on a cushioned sofa near the glowing grate fire call for a messenger boy he said to a servant i he obeyed at once the boy came herbert wrote a word or two on his card and gave it to him ihaveent for a physician he said i shall remain here until he comes mean while a little wine and a biscuit i think this is a case of starvation oh dear dear cried the girl who brought what was asked for on a tray why its the girl who did the embroidery i told cook afterward my heart bled that i didnt ask her into the kitchen and have a bite its what i ought o have done when she was sent off without being heard its a shame the way the rich serves the poor miss berth heard and winced she made som soft remark about being in ignorance of the young persouvsitualion but it is doubtful if herbert heatdtier he was trying to make the poor girl srwallow a utile wine while the maid rubbed her cold hands and shed ears of real pity over her at last the effort was successful a utile life had already returned to the poor crea ture when the doctor arrived by this time mrs hoyt had descended and after looking at the girl he addressed her madame he said i can send for an ambulance but if you are charitable enough to give shelter to this poor girl for the night i can feel more certain of saving her life she should be put to bed at once and theres my bed and 111 sit up with her cried bessie poor dear im glad to do it im 6ure taid mrs hoyt that i shall be quite willing to do all i can you sex it in our con sciences said miss bertha making the best of a bad situation she was evidently coming to our hocte for t small amount of money we owe her she embroiders embroidery is the most poorly paid work that sewing women do said the doctor i wonder if this poor girl has any- friends who are anxious about her does any one know that or her name v i do said bessie she hasnt a soul she hires a hall bedroom with no fire in it and its quite across town aniher name is miss rosetta hall and shes a lady bora and bred thats all the worse for her now ltoaetta hall cried herbert doctor i thought i knew ihe face mr hall was my best friend in youth to him i owe much i used to know this lady well when she was a little child and i a young collegian poor girl how has she come to this ah sail the doctor were you in my position you would know that the pov erty which parades itself is light com pared to that suffered by people who would rather die than beg merchants who have broken down people once prosperous and surrounded by friends who lurk in garrets or cellars and sometimes starve there that night the poor girl lay half conscious in bcssie6 bed the next day a room was put at her disposal bertha was not displeased it gave her an opportunity of posing in the presence of herbert who called every day as a tender sympathetic goal full of benevolence and charity a very handsome florence ktghl- ingale in blue cashmere morning robe with flowers in her hands for the sickroom it is an excuse to call on me she thought that little pinched creature cant attract him though his talk about his gratitude to her father is so constant i wonder what he will do when she gels well and proves to be that troublesome person a young lady who needs employ ment u bertha could but have known there would have been no more posing at the bed side no more flowers ho more cooling drinks offered with winning grace cer tainly no more smiles for herbert ham mond but some suspicion of the truth en tered her mind when she saw ihe convales cent a pale brunette with great melting dark eyesgive her hand to the warm clasp of the big blondehaired florid herbert hammond rrrr there koaetta lay and mr hammond saved her life and this is the pretty end of tho story j a weddiog in he church and who ia it that is to be married asks old mrs hill who takes a great interest in weddings its quite romantic mrs hill- replies the ministers pleasant wife it is a miss rosetta hau who is the bride and mr herbert hammond whois the bridegroom we all thought he was goipg to marry that handsome miss hoyt but miss hall was a little sweetheart of his as a ohild her fathers death had left her penniless and she worked at embroidery for a living mr hammond had searched for her for years for her father started him in buai- neee and was the cause of his making a fortune and he always loved little bosetu but he never would have found her if the had not fainted or the hoyts steps one night bessie says she had told miss bertha she needed food bat the had been sent away without pay bessie has lived with me and talks a good deal about the hoyts if i will let iter but at all events a touching incident the following which appeared in a detroit paper done of the most touching incidenia to be met with there is a family in this city who are dependent apon a litile child fortheprcieot sunshine of themselves a few weeks ago the young wife and mother wai strickeu down to die it was so sudden so dread fol when the grave family physician called them together in the parlor and in his solemn professions way intimated to them the truth there was no help then came the question among them who would tell her not the doctor it would be cruel to jet the man of scieoce ro to their dear one on inch an errind kol the aged mother who was to be left cbild- and alone not the young husband who was walking the loot with clenched hands notthere was one other and at ihir moment he looked up from he book he had been playing with unnoticed by them all and asked cravely is mamma doio to die then without waiting for an answer he sped from ihe room and upstairs as fast as his little feet would carry him friends and neighbors were watching by the sick woman they wonderingly noticed the palfi face of the child as he climbed on the bed ind kid his smill hand on his mother pillow mamma he asked tin sweet careimug tones is you frsid to de the mother looked at htm with swift in telltgeccc perhaps she had been thinking of ibis wholold faintly doctor an papa an gramma every body he whispered mamma dear ittle mamma wont be fraid todie ii you no charlie said ihe young mother after one supreme pang of grief mamma wout be afraid jus shut jour eyes in e dark mamma teep hold my hand in when you opeuem mamma itll be all light there whn the family gathered awestricken at the bedside charlie held up hiilittlehand huahf my mamma doin to sleep her wout wake up hsre any more and so it proved there was no heart rending farewell no agooy of parting for when the young mother woke she had passed beyond and as baby charlie said it was all light there c canada and the liquor traffic value of sunlight in home the youcliarlie she asked an aged ontario prohibitionist writing to the hivicm- says i have an idea that with reference to the drink traffic we are following in the itepa of the people of the united states on the davery question and hat the dtiuk traffic will not be destroyed in canada until god takes in his hand the work of wiping it out and that he will do it by terrible things in righteousness t we have not only ihe liquor traffickers of all grades to fight against bul our governments dominion provincial and municipal share in the plunder of the people by it and for the saki of the gold it brings aid and abet the traffickers in their evil work and sad to roy many of the ministers and member of churches content ihemseves with ouce a yearm their great ecclesiastical gatherings passing tlrongly worded resolutions against the liquor traffic and in fvor of prohibition bat when god shall take in hi hand the abolition of that awful evil iiqaor traffickers govern ments and the unfaithful will be to him but as the emill dust of the balacce he will do it and we shall be puniibed for not coming up to the help of the lord against mighty giveandtake the following story may not be true indeed it probably is not but we may say that if it is true it would teach a lesson as well as excite a smile we find the story in a new york paper when jay gould arrived iu boston a few days ago he was confronted by i young ster with an ncnsually dirty face who shouted morneupaper only two cents 7 the millionaire boajht a paper and gave the boy a fivecent piece saying keep ihe change and buy acake of soap to wash your face with tbe newsboy counted out ihree cents and dropped them ia mr goulds hand keep your change said the boy and buy a book on polikccfs ycvoit com- jxinion sound words from bishop potter on the labor questton the potent influence oi sunlight upon health can hardly be exaggerated mr wiograte la an article fa the building avir nys no dement it more important to consider in selecting a home than sunlight itspreseqca is indispeusible to health and comfort its ahieuce is a sure aid to gloom want of happiness and disease dr weir mitchell in his interesting re- searches on snake poisons found that tbe poisons of the deadly cobra if tfiposmio sunlight for a brief time become harmless prof huxley has shown that yeast increases indefinitely in volume amid darkness and damp while in sunlight jusljire reverse is the case sanless boos are the cremors of sickness et it jsamazing to find so many houses built in utter disregard of the necessity of sunlight there are hundreds of city homes expensively built and occupied by wealthy tenants which are as deficient jo light as an average tenement house yards barely ten feet deep arecomraon especially with corner houses and scores of families with ample means aud refinement seem content to live in rooms which hae no out look beyond a blank wall or the rear wiu dows of their neighbors the inconven ience and destruction of comfort aud pri- vacy caused by this deprivation are patent bat a more serious coosequence is the in jury to health dr bell in his lecent work on climatology says free access of light favors nutrition and regularity of development and contributes to beautify the couatenance while deficiency of light isusaally characterized by ugliness rickets and deformity and is a fruitful source of scrofula and consumption in any climate this statement is corroborated by a fsct noticed by dr hammond that various experiments demonstrate that the action of light is of beotfit in many cooditioua anemia chlorous and phthisis being among the nam ber it is probable that one of the chief benefits derivetf by invalids frcm a winter sojoarn at alpine or tropical resorts is due to the larger amount of sunlight enjdyed what florence nightingale savs of the value of light to those who are ill indicates no less its neoessityf9r those who are well second only to fresh xir however i should be inclned to rank light direct sun- ligbt not only daylight is necessary for speedy recovery instances could be givet almost endless where in dark wards or

the street is far more subject to disease than the light side sir james wilis found three limes as many cases of disease on tbe shaded side of the barracks at st petersburg as on the other side dapuytrcu is said to have wroagbt a cure in ihe case of a lady in a seemingly desperate condition by simply removing ber from dark quarters to a brighter resi dence and keeping hsras much as pods in the daylight dr farrar who has paid special atten tion to the effect ofdhe presence or absence of light in living rooms apou health found that in his own case when occupying a a room facing north his general health was not nearly so good as when his window had a southern exposure general experience will confirm this conclusion human beings like plants need an abnndauce of light and if denied it they will pine and wilt the leigh l af t window hu u its portact bearing on the amount of suulight which is admitted and alsq on ihe ability to ventilate a room if a window it low a stratum of hot air
