Major Anthony Hartletop was a very good match indeed, as Miss An- -w-v a . . Seron L'" worth and the gossips very well knew: To be sore, he was rather bald and ; had a wart on his nose; but, then, he owner of many acres of rich i iana; ne possessed herds ot tat. short I orn cattle and flocks of lone wooled Merino sheep: he raised untold a turn - ne i - . t t ii li to ui auiur cane, to De maae up into sugarcane, was. all told, the richest farmer in the neighborhood of sugar Maple village. As for Miss Angerona, she was not very young, but neither was she old. bhe was not remarkably plain, nor could she be called pretty. For the rest, she was rather sharped featured and sharp-tongued, so the neighbors declared, though the major had not discovered this fact. Miss Dil worth was not a benevo lent person, yet she had taken her or phan niece, Avis, to raise. Avis Dil worth was a hearty, mer ry girl, in spite of her aunt's crabbed temper, with a round face, deep dim ples in her cheeks, a pair of laughing bluegray eves, and plenty of vim and life about her, though demure and quiet as a nun under Miss Ange rona's sharp eyes. Indeed, many people asserted that if Avis were only decently dressed, and allowed the advantages she de served, she would be quite a belle. ButMiss Dil worth's old garment's however neatly made over, were not sufficient to set off a good figure to much advantage. They were all poor Avis was al- wncui iiuwevw, ami sne signed in vain over the crisp new lawns, the sheer white muslins, the fluted ruffles and 'fresh, plumed hats of her more fortunate acquaintances. At last Major Hartletop had pro posed to Miss Angeroua, in a good, substantial, plainly expressed letter; ana Miss Angeroua had determined to accept the proposal. "If he a bald and ugly," she re marked to herself, "he's rich, and money covers a multitude of bad looks. Besides, it'll spite that stuck up Widder Flukes, that's been a set ting her cap at him this mouth or more; an' as long as she wants him I U have him, it lie was bald us an egg an ten times as ugly as he is!" But, in spite of his. defects, Major Hartletop was good hearted, and as romantic as many a man with a elos- 7 ueaa oi nair ana no wart on hit nuse. He was really in love with Miss Angerona, and after sending his pro posal, the moments seemed weighted with Jead until he could receive her answer. At last his impatience grew un bearable. . "I won't wait no longer," he de clared. 'Til just call around and get her answer right away. t I shan't sleep a wink tonight, 1 know." And popping his hat on bis head, lie set oifon the wiuding,country road which led to Mits Angerona's dwell ing, his mind busy with pleasant fan cies ot what the future might have in store. "How nice it'll be to have my wife a setting at the head of the table, or stepping around the house, overseein' the butter aud cheese mak in' ," he mused. "An' that pretty Avis, too. She shall have better clothes than she wears now. I s'prose Angerony can't atlord to dress her any better: but I 11 ece to that. She shall have . a white dress, with lace flounces, an' one o' them crimpy things girls wear around their necks, to stand up with us in." A And so, his mind busy with cheer ful pictures of the happy future, he reached Miss Angerona 8 house, as cended the steps, and was about to knock on the open door, when a shrill, high pitched voice reached his ear. "A new dress! No, Avis Dilworth, you can t nave it: a pretty question to ask, when 1 ve got my own clothes to buy, if- I marry that bald headed scare crow, as 1 s pose l slum A Hue thing for you to come asking for duds, mis!" "But, aunt," returned Avis, plead ingly, "I haven't anything fit to wear to church." "Oh, indeedhSo you go to church to show your clothes, hey? You bet ter stay at home if that's what you go fur. An' when 1 marry old riartie- ttfp why he coudn't have a decent name I don't seeyou won't be no better off than you are now, if he is rich. I shill be as saviu' of his money as I kin, so when he dies I'll have something fur myself. An' now go 'long an' milk that cow; she's been a bawlin' this half hour." The poor majf, half stupefied by this astonishing revelation, stumbled off the steps aud got out of the gate he scarcely knew how. And now here was a predicament! a Im la marrv such a a vira- Erf b. roamed, .Lopping hit l e d with huge red handkerchief. And uv " " - y yet, ho w was he to get out of marry ing her, if she ehose to accept him? s He bad serious doubts whether be ing called a "bald headed scare crow would exonerate a mat), in tfee eyes of the law and public opinion, in re fusing to fulfill his offer of marriage. And yet, marry her he couldn't he wouldn't. Thus be assured him self over and over again. Miss Angerona, meanwhile, pro ceeded to write her letter, accepting Major Hartletop's proposal. Having written it, she laid it on a corner of a table to dry. and with coni Dressed lips and a look of determination in her cold, gray eyes, she drew anoth er letter from her pocket, and open ing it, read "My Dear Avis: I have called twice to see you, but your aunt re fused me admittance to the house. I am therefore compelled to write what had meant to tell vou oersonallv You must know already that I love you, Avis, and I want you for mv ue. Will you marry me? Please answer as soon as possible, as I shall be in great suspense until I hear from you. Yours forever, Richmond Alder." IT..f a. J a li i ij i luuuereu iYiiss Angerona. with a smile of grim satisfaction. 'It's well I didn't give her the letter. I shan't allow her to marrv verv soon. She's too much help to me, I couldn't get nobdy to take her place an' do all she does for love nor mnnv A nd now fur your answer. Mr. Richmond Alder." And taking up her pen. she wrote. slowly and carefully: li T i i . , v ici,ict, ami "Uowcr is xN o. i can never marrv '-vr r ' you. A. Dilworth. iil..,.,-L. - m 'That'll settle him, she decided, An 'tain' 'A' stands Avis.' no lurgery, eiuier, sveur for Angerona as well as inclosing the two letters ID And envelopes, she directed them, slipped i .u uci Fuuk, aim carneu tnem to the uostofiice herself. 'Now 1 know they're safe,' she commented, with a sigh of relief, as she retraced her steps toward home. Major Hartletop had passed a wretched uight. According to his own statement, he had not slept a wink. When Jake Soper the hired hand, brought in the morning's mail, as usual, he felt a nervous tingle down to his finger ends. With a quaking hand he opened Miss Angeroua's letter, and, much to his relief, read: 'I have received your letter, and my answer is No. I can never marry you. A. Dilworth.' To say the major was delighted would hardly express his feels. He almost felt as if he could forgive Miss Angerona for calling him a 'bald headed scare crow,' in consideration of her having refused him. Tucking the letter in his pocket, he went whistling about the house, like a school boy. After dinner, he saddled his riding mare and rode down to the village, to see a trader about buying some of his fat cattle for beef. Tying his 'nag' under a shady tree, he proceeded toward the village store and met Miss Angerona face to face. She simpered, smiled and tried to blush. The major bowed coldly and passed on. Astonished and chagrined, Miss Angerona detained him, and demand ed the cause of such behavior. 'What behavior?' asked the major, coldly. 'To pass me without speaking, when when we are engaged to be marry!' 'Engaged!' cried the major. 'Why, you have refused me!' 'I didn't: I accepted you!' contra dicted the lady, flatly. " 'I have your refusal in black and white; here it is!' he retorted. And taking a crumpled note from his poeket, he read it out to her. '1 I it's a mistake!' gasped Miss Angerona. 'I never meant ill' 'But you wrote it, and that's enough for me. Good morning, ma'am!' Aud the major trotted on to see about selling his beeves, while Miss Angerona stood angrily beating her self for her own blunder. 'I must have sent the wrong letter, 1 i..AU ?ll . .1 ll. auu now mat Aiaer win get ine out er. What a fool I was.!" And she hastened her steps home ward to prevent further mischief from the unlucky mistake. But she was too late. The house was shut up; no signs of life about, no Avis to be seen. Un the dining table lay a note, which said: "Dear Aunt: Since you have ac cepted Mr. Alder's proposal Jbr me, you cannot blame me for marrying ... !. .... -! him. We are going to tne minister s now, and will be happy to see you at OUr UOme wueucver jrvu tiiuusc w A - come. AS ever, yuur niece, Miss Angeroua's feelings were not F"" . PT7 ' ?w" later, she read the marnage notice of .. j .i e 1 Major Anthony Hartletop and Mrs. Can dace Flukes. And so Miss Angerona Dil worth had lost both her lover and niece all through her own treachery, and Major Hartletop never repeated the lucky escape he had made. Helen Whitney dark.

The Boston Transcript says: Mr. W. is quite an elderly wealthy gentleman, having for his second wife a lady many years his junior aud much petted. Any- express wish of hers he has at once grati fied, if money could be the niedum. One evening she remarked iu her charming way, ' I saw today at storo a lovely camel' huir 6hawl that I want ever so much. Would you bring home to-morrow a check! It's only $1,500." "Yes, dear," he replied. "I Will bring the aionej," and the next evening, with the assistance of bis porter, he did bring home! and plac ed on the parlor table fifteen hnndreu sil ver dollars. At the sight of this pile of metal, weighing nearlv a h aud red pounds the wife exclaimed: "What are you go ing to do with all that money!"' "Why! love, it's the money yon wanted for the new shawl." Good gracious! Dees it take all that to make $1,500! Why I bad no idea it meant so much. I will do with out the shawl and will pat it all in the savings bank, if you will let me." And she did so, and she lias since added sev eral sums to the deposits. Mr. WL affirms, on his honor, that since that event she has not asked for a quarter part so much money as before the incident. The abov is not a fancy sketch. It all really hap- nened. An Ayah's Terrible Revenge.
