horoton brought out the required article clamped upon a drawing board alio some crayon holders and a sharp knife litm a sort of an architect and keep these things on hand but hadnt yuu better eat some lunch before you begin the business t you hate a very hungry look i am not so hungry sir but thit i am willing to earu a meal before i eat iu wll you have ihe kindness lo all down v bide face or front t side face if you please i can do that the best mr hornton seated himself presenting hii profile to tbe ragged artist who weat to work without more ado hii strokes were uick rigorous and artistie and in a surprising short time a capital sketch of mr bbrnlon s head ippeared on the paper that gentleman looked at it and puckered his up so as lo produce a low- and long whistle i am apt readr to pronounce vou an angel yoahg fellow be said but i may truly any that 1 hare entertained a pretty fair artiat unawares though the entertain mentis yet to come here emur bella come out aud witness anew sensation 1 mrs hornton hurried out on the ver andah with her young sister bella and her little girl lulu for answer mr hornton banded hi wife the crayon sketch which was hastily scanned with starts of surprise and ejaculations of delight what a nice likeness 1 exclaimed mrs hornton where did it come front i this you ag person did it just now answered hornton good gracious me 1 ia it possible i i woader if he would make one of my little lain of course be would and of bella and of the whole tribe if you want but be is tired and hangrr and you bad better give him something lo eat before jou ask any mote of him i will gladly do that i am sure that this likeseas of you john is worth sdowa dinners give him one anyway and we will talk aboat tbe rest it wont doo be too libetel at the start just follow my wife young fellow and i have no doubt that you will feel better when she gets through with you when tbe young ttrangtr had been washed and comsed and fed us personal appearance- was improved and be had gaiacd in case and grace of jmadiier he was anxious to make a picture of baby lulu and was permitted tq do so produc ing a likeness which sent the food mother into ecstacio c this production baying beetuufflclently admired mrhuctuoa dismissed tkaie- male rabble ta lie chose to ku them corraled his tramp for a conrersmtloa asking blsa who ho was and all about himself his name was abel keatridge and be was the sen of s miller at queenspcrt who had died suddenly leaving an estate so en cumbered as to be worth less than nothing abel had gone to philadelphia to seek bis fortune and had found nothing but diaap pointment and poverty he knew some thing about milling and gardening but could flitd no employment in tbe city and went into the country to look forwork but his iramplike appearance had told against him and he was on ihe rerg of deipjlr when he encountered mr hornton tbare ia no mil liar t be done here said that gentleman but i have no doubt that my wife since you mad that sketch of lulu will allow you td straighten up those grounds if you turn out as well as i think you will i nay tod something else for you to do soit was settled- that ahelgeotridge was to remain atjhk hornton si a room was prepared for him- and some 6i bi em ployers partly worn clothes were fitted to hra arri he wiaafenj to work on the shrubs and flowera and graat jjaota flis work was quite satisfactory and he acquit ted himself generally o as to gain xle con- fidence aud respect of all in the house besides the work on the grounds other odds and ends of employment were fouod for him about the place but nothing was said to aim about the cuamosalioa tlit he fartsptbhsy l9rawmket the end if whithtpnlirl hortjtoa gare him a a written oidreete him to go to v jhimself

procure a patent decani e the exam iners had decided there was lothing new in the invention this discouraged me more than any of the restif my disap pointmenia what was tbe agents nan e v bilaamonliwickv and your name is abel e sntridge f yes slrl lhat gent lied to you abel asd mr hornton he procured the patent which is a very valuable one ind meant to swipdle you but of it he we aid probably nave succeeded in doiog so if rou bad not come tomy house how do you know this f eagerly bak ed abel 1 am a aort of speculator i nd occasion ally dabble in such matters korthwlck offered the patent for sale to me before j met you and i perceived it wi s in the name of abel eehlndge he as ured me he could procure ail assignmei u from the patentee who desired lo set and i told him if he could do so i wo ild negotiate with him he is to meet a e tomorrow and bring tbe assignments a id of course yoii cant have signed your m me in phila delphia whoa you were at m house i should hunk not i iu igaantly ex claimed abel thefefore northwicka as agnment will beaforgeryand i shall briig him here and confront him with you mr hornton was as good a bis word and met tbe rascally agent at tbe time and place appointed north wid did dot have the assignment although he professed his ability to produce it as soon i s the negotia tion should be corclnded and mr huraton brought bim to the house for the purpose of windiag up the transaction there he was confronted greatly to kiaistonishment and dismay with abel kenl ridge and it was made evident to him ths hia swindl ing scheme was discovered the upshot of the interview was that abel gained possession of hii precious pa tent and northwick was glac to go clear of criminal proceedings now my boy said mr jhomtou if you will take me aa a parthe in thu busi ness i will furnish the capita and push it and i have no doubt thai bot i of us will grind out gost of money w ith your tur bine wheel abel gladly accepted this arrangement and tbe result soon became s i aatisfactory to both parties that mr ho nton heartily congratulated himself upon the fact that his supposed tramp had no taken his ad rice to jog along it should be added that
