said mr loray slowly theres something radically wronfi about that there house nobody waou it ita been in tbe market three aueotmlve years and it wont go off nohow we oan ax it i lbut mandeville exclaimed what do yon mean 7 it isnt him n ted i not to my snowledffe sir said the agent nnlees tbs tenante have oboesn to get up a ghost for tbairancotaledlfloatloo the tsoante are d ik taxi t

and lay wedged id a tingle of gooseberry bushes a black eyed handsome elf came to tbe door with a mate of gypsy dark hair ourliog down her back and a faded calico frock which was nevertheless whole and neat is this house t let mr mandeville politely asked ye e s unwillingly admitted miss natalie vano commonly known as natty with a glance at the battered board whiob lay faoe downward among the gooseberries at least the agent told us eo and a cross old growler he was i gould i look at it said mr mande ville insinuatingly it aint convenient answered miss natty planting herself within the door in such a manner that he oonh not possibly abttin an entrance without ber permission but tbe sign says ti be eeen between thehours oftwrlveandfonr7 mrr mandeville oonsojtiqg bis chronometer and its now half past one i cant help what the sign sas said natty belligerently it isnt convenient mamma is an invalid and she cant have all creation tramping over the hoars above her bead but j am not ell creation said mr mandeville and i will endeavor not to tramp any more than i oan help it isnt worth while for you to come in aid natty solemnly regarding him you wont like the house auvbow and why not he quebttoned its mouldy said kitty sinking bet voice ta a confidential whisper and damp and tho ceiling in the llueroom has fallen and the paper in the diuing room is all mildew and the neighbors eay theres a ghost but i never saw it ah 1 said mr mandeville i thought we should oome to it at knt a ghoet eh yes nodded natty down cellar where the bodies of bo me revolutionary eoldies were buried long before any one ever thought of bailditik a house here they walk there at digbt and clank their awords at least german grttoheu who lived with ub once dbed to say so i never heard any noise but tbe rati but all the same it isnt comfortable to have people aaying that theres a ghoet in the house no certainly not acquiesced mr mandeville besides added natty tbe house belongs to a crab a what cried mandeville a crab said natty the landlord you know hes a oonain of mammas nobody knows how many times removed but i know he mast be horribly seiesb and miserly and 1 rather like the idea of keeping posssesslon of the old moran mansion in spite of him i dare say be dancjng about the floor ot bis money vaults now with rage about it but we bad as mnob right to our lis if of the old property aa be had no matter whit the law said and we are beggars almost and he is a rich man law said mr mandeville drjly but not equity thats it eh weve got poiiesbiou of the house thats all i know laid tbe young outlaw and we mean to beep it bjnt perhaps said mandeville be may not be as bad as you think ob im quits sure of it said natty decisively i suppose said mandeville looking keenly at her that you are natalie she started how did you know because he aniwered bolemly i am the crab 1 whati i am william mandeville aroiling roguishly open the door natty and let me in i want to see your mother dont be frightened child i am not angry with yon natalie reddened indignantly frightened 1 she repeated i never waa frightened in my lift least of ell at you and don t yon think you are a crab mr william mandeville 7 it la very likely aaid he with great oatmness that i may have appeared like a sbellqsh of that nature but i assure yon it baa been quite unintentional i have trusted too much to my agent he told nie yon were desirous t leave the house i then aaid natalie energetically he told a wicked wicked story why should we leave it t we had nowhere else to go he tamed around and held ont hla hand it t h b a m inn nrteratv din a others seo us will you allow me in some measure to right myself in your estimation and my ownj l they had a long oounsel of ways and means there by the blazing are of drift wood that evening and they went sit over the house even down to tho oellar whero tbe fchont was supposed to do his rattling at the dead ofnigbt and mr mandeville still with his eyes fixed on nataliea bright gipsy faoe deoided that tbe property needed repairing thoroughly and invited the widow and daughter to visit faina in new york while the renova vatlon took place my sister will be there to chaperon us he bald aud i will endeavor to show my little ooaein natty some of the hinge beet worth seeing in oar great metropolis oh cried natty with her great eyes flittering like pools of jet how nice that will bet ob cousin habdovilla i do liko you bo ranch i will she dare to eay that one year from today ho asked him bel i with a curious sensation at bis heart for she waa so yoadg and pretty eo like a rare ripe peaoh with tbe bloom still on its obeeks upon the next years first of april mr la ray oarno to his ohief with an anxious face that old morand mansion sir said he i

to whom do you belong sam jonor in llostou jan 22 this incident i givo to you a ohriet ian gentleman was riding through a certain state of this union in the cars for homo at one of tho stations two men boarded the train and eat down in the ladies oar it wasnt more than flvo an irishmans doctor no tooth no tooth ache the atory given below carries its applies tion with it yon cant make a man sober by sot of parliament so they said i thought it over it didnt seem to me a aelfevident proposition why not said i then came a crasher yon might as well try to cure the tooth aobe by aot of parliament tbla made me reflect i bad been troubled with tooth ache worried by it maddened by it kept from my work my meals my happiness by it my health was failing in consequence my temper was gone my mind waa going i was invited to try various remedies stop it said some 1 bpt how i inquired till the tooth with gold they ex plained the tooth was thus primed bat the tooth ache went on 1 clear it out baidothera how how wa my agonized exola mat ion oleanio the blessed thing they said i did got it inspected illuminated syringed fumigated made beautiful with camphorated chalk bathhrlok plate powder and flonlioe give it rest on sundays said a clerical friend i tried this even on sundays there were some hotel guest twinges on monday it wan as bad aa ever what waa i to do e extra careful what you let into it advised a civic funolfohayy nothing could exceed my oare three magistrates certified the good harmless excellent oharaoter of all i pot into my tooth i felt safe not for long i aoon felt sold the results were disappointing distressing excruciating somehow the certificated application lost its virtue tho moment it got inside hold a drink of water in your moutb aud sit on the are obtil it boils urged a knowing one l began to think this waa the only rem edy at last i took counsel of a fanatic try tbe parliamentary onre said he wbafe that said i have tbe tooth pulled ont a abort aot will do it this seemed drastic it would leavea gap in ray social system i should miss an old friend the tooth had a vested interest t hesitated i took oourage let the operation cost what it may it roast odnm i cried so i aokimoned tbe dentibt i am ready for the parliamentary cure soldi it took a strong pull it was done tbe tooth was gone so waa tha toothache i was happy onoe more i reflected extraction cures tooth aobe i had never realized this be fore no tooth po tooth aohe this was strange bat true and yet yoa cannot make a man sober by an aot of farlla tnent let as see no tooth no tooth ache oranted no drinkiug t radio uo drink eh whit i la that a fact no drink t raffle no drink i never thought of that no drink no drunkenness i see a male with no hind legs doesnt kick he is quiet if a man pan get nothing to drink he doesnt drink he is sober an aot ot parliament can make him to by whtte washing the saloon not quite sanotlfy- logltou sunday and election days only scarcely what then do yoa want par liament to enaot prohibition irish around said he natty shall wo be friends with all my heart i doqt believe you oan possibly be a crab after all and ive been doing yon

strange passage or verbal arms natalie has shown oie myu in a new light it la a peculiar sensation to see ourselves as ralaates before one of them pulled out a bottle they both tipped it up and drunk and soon commenced swearing and oureing and talking loud in their profanity in tbo oar to the disgust of everybody in it the christian gentleman looked ou and aaid t6 himself well those follows didnt

perfectly willing to do for the devil tbey will submit to being thrown ignominloualy off the train and be doomed and damned for the privilege of serving him who ever heard of a christian beior put off
