much attention. They describe the

and negroes, and are dated from
St. Helena Island, off Charleston.

them : "The negroes as a race are
thoroughly dishonest. It is no dis
grace for a negro to be imprisoned
for theft. The crime consists in be-

bill of Dr. Cogswell's.

well! And where is all the money
to come from!" she asked herself,
adly. "We will get very poor"'

After thinking awhile, ahe slipped
the paper in her pocket and went
down stairs.

"We'll feel very poor afterward,
wont we, Mama!"
Mama smiled. A sad smile. Dot
thought, as she repliedi "You're
better at guessing than we suppos
ed. Now, why dont you take your
trimming, little daughter and go
into the libraryt There's a nice
fire on the he.ttb, and you can work
awav like a little bee. We'll need
it soon, you know," added Mamma,
for Dot was rather inclined to
dream when she was alone.
"We'll need it soon," repeated
Dot, as she climbed up in the big
library chair. "We'll need it soon.
And to think I never once thought

there was a ereat lump in her
throat,'he's goiug to die, and they
are leaving me to find that out.'

knows how badlv I feel."
"Hallo!" was Tom's greeting.
Beeu crying?"
"Yes." addmitledDot, iu a voice
that could leae no doubt of it in
any one's mind.
"What's up!" continued, Tom, as
he rubbed away at his gun. 'Want
any help!" '
'Well, you know' Tom." began
Dot, in her sweet, timid voice;
"there's a secretin there," point
ing toward the house, "and I never
found it out till this morning."
"So you found it out, did you!
Well, I told 'em you would-"
"I wouldn't, but for the bill."
"You wouldn't what!" asked
the lake, and the little.' bed ; with
curtains and everything blue,
carpet and all. Dr. Cogswell calls
his little sister's room, and
she's coming in the spring. Tom
just wanted to comfort me. He
doesn't know how hard they're
working and crying."
That pight Dot added her pray
er the words, "O God, please dont
et it be more than we can pay."
"Let what!' asked Mamma.
"The doctor's bill, whispered
Dot. .''
The young doctor must have
heard of it in some way, for he hap
pened in the next morning after
breakfast, and the first thing he
said was;
"I'm going to have iny bill set

with quite a grave face he took out
his memorauda.
"Now, how much should' you
think it would come to!"
"Hundreds!" said poor little Dot,
faintly.
"We want to be business-like,"
said Cogswell; "supjiose you get
