means of her family by a little honest and honorable work aunt deborah ahrngged her shoal- ders she was a all high feaared old womuiwith scotchred hair prominent cheek oonea and eyes that glittered like cells of jetty light in their cavern- om sockets and as the sat there beside her big work basket with a piece of uncompromising knittingwork in her hinds felix felt the old sensa tion which had so often comeoyer him as a child of being summoned before some stern jridicial tribunal aunt deboiah in the moneyed metuber of the family it was aunt deborah whose tastes were courted aunt deborah whose aiicawas scr iicited iii every important crisis in he rockingham family- and the old lady could hardly belietre her own senses when she heard lhat her nephew felix had actually dared to select a wife according to his own teste and fancy humph commented aunt deborah and i suppose you will expect me to give you a wedding present that is just an your own judgment snd liberality may dictate said felix with a hidden sparkle of mischief under his eyelashes j humph i again ottered aunt deborah bring her to see me to night- amy falkland was half frightened out of her pretty little wito when her lover told her that aunt deborah had desired her presence oh felix said she eoloriag pink and white im afraid l when the qneen issnes her com mands said felix laaghiog all the be the bride elect pteteated beitelf to aunt deborah blushing pretty and confused that selfsame evening so youre going to marry my nephew bald aunt deborah altnoat hi the words wherewith she had catechised felix in the

way well my dear ive no pearls and diamonds to give away and if i had you wouldnt know what to do with them heres an old sealkiu jacket lhat ive worn a few times take that youre handy with tbe netdie and yon can eaaily fit it up iddo a great many winters ser vice i thaak you aunt deborah said amy with a pretty little courtesy you may kits me my dear said the old jlady relenting a little under the sunshine of the soft blu eyes and timid voice and amy put up her che ty lips lo the old spinsters thin and wrinkle- seamed fsce ive given your brolher halberta bride elect just such another sacque said miss deborah to her nephew l dareisay she expect a set of jewels or a thousand dollar necklace or some such piece of frivoltry and nonsense but shell find herself mistaken i intend to show no partiality to my nephewa i amy falkland took home the vener able old fur garment which gave signs of long ind hard service unci viewed it with earnest eyes it is old said she but theie is a deal of

falklands iroutteau w as by no means so extensive 1 bat that ahe had time enough to attend 0 these little details hersalt but hiss hortentta waldron the bride elect of mr halbert rockingham felixs elder brother viewed the wed- ding gift of j her husbands aunt with considerably less favor mias waldron was a beauty and a belle with an uncle in the united states navy a father who dealt extensively in mining stocks and bonds and a french maid and thi rockingbatns were all delighted and said what a great thing it was for halbert to marry into i such a family good gracious ms said miss wal dron eyeing the ancient sealskin wrap through a gold eye glass what does the old eccentricity mean by sending me such a rag as that f and the mamma the sisterand the french maid didnt find themselves prepared with an answer therese said miss hortenkuvtake that old thing to mrs levis on seventh avenue she will five yon something for it x dare say an3 i can lay it out ursixbutton gloves- j but my dear remonstrated mrs waldron what will halbertu aunt deborah think f j what she pleases said miss hor- teneia with a toss of tbe head but you neednt look so frightened mamma she will never know how could shef j i do hate such stinginess eaid the siaur j 80 do i said horteosia w to em phasis and maameelle thereee mother had been aunt deborahs humble lriend and seamatreaa a id who was in that lady

wanting its the sealskin jacket please miss rockingham said amy breathlessly i was ripping it up to pot m a new lining od there quilted into a square panel at tbe very back of tbe old brown silk facing i foonda tbouaanddollar tieesury bond nonsense f said aunt deobrah such things only happen in old legends but indeed it has happened to me said amy and felix abd i agreed lhat the money didnt belong to us and so i have brought it back look i kisa me my dear aaid aunt deborah setting down her cofiee ewp youarewrong ih money dint belong to ycu i pul it there myself with the express intention that you should find it i put another one into the jacket that i gave the girl who ia going 0 marry hdbert but shell never get it now and aunt daborsli chuckled oh cried amy do you really mean to give us felix and me all his money a thou sand dollars and she opened her eyes veiy wide i do really mean it said aunt deborah smiling down upon tbe freeb primrose like face mist horteosia waldron was much chagrined when the rumor of the thousand dollar treasury bonds that were hijdeu away in tha two old seal skin jacket reached her ears sbe sent at once to mrs levi but the jacket as might have been expected was never recovered and i do believe aaid mrs halbert rockiugham that that is phe reason aunt deborah makes such an absurd j et of felixs china doll of a wife 1 wish i hadnt been in each a hurry aboat the sel akin jacket the icaa won wtciad- a day or two ago soon after the hour of noon an individual who seemed fo be laboring under considerable ex citement entered a grocery blore on michigan avenue and asked for a private ford with the proprieter when the request had been granted he explained ibelieve myself 0 be an injured husband and i want to verify my sus picions by watching a house on tbe other street this i can best do from the rear of your afore have yon any objections to my taking a seat back there by the open windew t tbe grocer granted the favor and the agi tated stranger walked back and took a seat on a box of codfish and began hi watch his presence had almost been forgotten when he returned to the front of tha store with hasty step and quivering voice and said great shakespeare but ill kill her 1 yes ill shoot her through the heart your wife v yes m y idolited mary i i can no longer doubt hor guilt ill be a murder er in leas than ten minutes the grocer tried to detain him but he broke away and rushed around the corner not bearing anything further of bim for half an hour tbe grocer began to investigate and he discovered that fourteen rolls of butter a crock of lard two hams and other stnff had left tbe back of the store by way of the window atlwhich the watchful husband was stationed tu now the balmy aepjiyrmot y the petals from the crimson rose
