alone in a large, old frame house at the
outskirts of the town, with a man servant
cook and general man-of-all work.
Veais and years befole, when a young
an of twenty, poor and uiuiless, Steele
lad loved a girl whose parents would not
t her marry him because he was so worth
less. In his nige lie blamed her lor this
;ind would listen to no reason, and from
that day had hated women and had led a
jlilary life. It was this scene that now
Id John Steele iu his office chair, as the
mantle of night gathered over the town.
More than twenty years ago," he
mused, "ana I Uoii t believe I have ever
ken to a woman, except uu business,
since that day. They say she married a
no-acount wretch after all, who has suuk
down to poverty and want. Well, well, I
must not waste tiuic thinking about such
things now. I was only u boy then, and
did not kuow what I wanted. I must b,
;oing." Whereupon he arose, buttoned
his coat about him. locked his ulliee and
trudged on his huuieward journey. not hi re now?"
Rumor had it about town that, although
iy her parenls' influence, Katie Drew had
married shortly after her refusal of Steele,
that she hud loved him dearly. This was
most likely true, but as twenty years had
k st, the matter had faded from the gener
al mind to give way to more lively gossip.
Stwle ate his supper in silence. Wil
li!, his man-of all-work had a very good
meal prepared; for, though Steele was
'h'se-listcd he believed iu good eating,
good clothes and comfortable living.
' Xow, William," said Stifle, when he
had linished, "if you fix me up enough
iod to do me to morrow, you may have a
oliday. And here is your money and
live dollars to have a lime with. Xo holi-
lay for me; I don't need any and don't
want any.
I'hank you, Mr. Steele-, for your good
ness," said William. "Hut, Mr. Steele,
lou t you never take any little extra pleas
ure at all? oil know I used to know
you win n you was a little tellow; and 1
can lemember seeing vour good mother
holding you up at the old church to you

would kisft your hahy face and talk baby

"Confound ihe fellow," grumbled Steele,
as he sal down ill his room lhat nt"ht
read. "If I should lilcu In him he would

knock at I lie IVoiii d,s,r.
' W, .i,,l, r who that is,' he thought.
Something unusual at this place.'1
lie listened ii moment and there came
another knock.
What the dcuccfan I hit William he
d iiug that he di n'l go to the door Y" said
Steele. ' I want to go to bed, and it may
be souie one that wants nie. To borrow
money. I gutss. Well, uuless they have
good security, tn t a cent do they get."
At tliH jun . lure Willi no op 'lie 1 the
door. Steele heard an indistinct conver
sation and then William conducted the
visitor to the kitchen. After some mo
ment William came walking into the
room.
"Well, what is it f"
"F.xeuse uie, Mr. Steele, hut 1 1 1 era is a
poor woman in tne kitchen who needs
some help badly. I'm sure she does, for
she don't look like a common beggar. She
any. she haa walked through the cold . all
the way fruui the last town, and ii most
dond." ' : "
"Yes, thai is what they all say. Give
her something to cat and sci.d her on."
' Hut I wish you would conic and see
her."
'Mother these beggars," inumbhsl
Steele. "Hut 1 guess I'll go down to get
rid of her."
Steele suw a black ligure silling by the
lire.
"Well." he said toiler, when he entered,
"what can I do for you '.'"
Sin' turned toward him. Her face was
not that of a beggar. Although a trifle
pale, it was the face of a pretty woman of
ihiilylive.
"I only wished to get warm," she said.
"I was so cold that 1 felt us if I should
freeze. I am sorry to disturb you. 1
have no friends iu the town, and am sure
1 can get employment of some kind there.
I used lo live there years and years ugo.
Hy means of a few ,iiestions he learned
that she was a widow without any rela
tions in the woild. He was deeply
touched by her story.
"What was your husband's name?" ask
ed Steele.
"Carter," she said; "George C'aitcr."
"Wait a moment," he said, and went up
to his room.
He went to his desk and took out
some money. "1 so seldom give," said
he, "and can afford to he liberal to this
poor w nuan." lie took two ten-dollar
bills and started back to the kitchen.
"She said her name was Carter. Car
terCarter? My Hod! That was the
name of her husband. She said she used
to live here years ago. It must he she.
It is Kate Drew! It must be!"
Steele shook like a leaf. lie seemed
young again, lie remembered her once
more as the sweet-faced girl, and the heart
which had been slumbering so long seem"
ed to spting into new life. He sat down
on the stairs to compose himself, and then
started aoain fur the kitchen.
Willi,'," said Steele, when he entered,
"lu re is the key to my ofllce. 1 wish you
would go there and bliug lue a packet you
will lind on my desk."
William fell in tho trap without suspic
ion, and was off.
Steele seated himself in a dark corner
and looked at the Woman. He could see
his old love in every feature of the face.
He was strangely excited and knew nut
what to say.
"You say you lived here oliee?" he be
gan. "Yes. when 1 was a girl," she said.
"And bad fortune has overtaken you
since. I'erhaps you knew my cousin
then, John Steele?"
Yes," she said, "1 know him. Is he
pers!" he said, as William offen d them to
him.
"Here, William," he said, as he came
down stairs putting on his overcoat, "fix
the front room and light a lire. Don't
you hear, you idiot? Don't stand looking
move about."
William did not know what was the
matter. He had just got the tire lighted
when Steele came stumbling iu with the

"Xo, poor fellow," said Steele, feeling
guilty as he spoke the words, "he is dead."
"Dead!" and she leaned her on her
hand and wept.
"Yes." said Steele, feeling 'ike a murder
er as he spoke, "but none who knew hiui
were son y for it. lie had no guod in him
ami lived a sclli-h life."
"I'uor man!" said the sweet, sympathir
ing tones. "At heart he was good."
Something seemed to move Steele. He
got up and stood by her chair. His hand,
hy accident, touched her. It aeut a thrill
through him that seemed to make u new
being of him.
''Katie," he said, "don't you know
ui,-?"
She looked up, started, stotsl oroet, and
got a good look into his face.
"Johu!" she said, iu a scared way, aud
hid her face iu her hands.
"Yes, Katie," he said, "it is John.
I was thinking of you to-day. audit seems
as though hoaven has scut you."
"This is such a sbo, k to nie," aud she
sat down again.
Steele's heart was throbbing wildly, and
he ,uivercd with exiilomeut.
"I am old, now Katie, and perhaps
awkward in my speech, but I I can't

woman I ever loved. You are welcome

"Hut what, Katie?"
"Oh, John, you kuow I loved you

"Forgive you! Don't speak of that

good stories as evir and one which 1 heard
him relate to a party of North Carolinians

Said he, iu effect;
"You know that Zeb. Yance used to be
a member of the National House before
the war. and Sioii lingers represented the
Raleigh district iu Congress. Well, some
friends si nt Fratik Shober, of Salisbury,
and mo a ease of very fine wine, one day.
Zeb. and Sinn found it out, somehow, and
they used lo come aruund to see us mighty
ofteu. In fact, they became great friends
of ours, sticking closer than brothers
while the wine lasted.
"One night, alter they had relieved us
of a half-dozen bottles, more or less, they
got to feeling pretty good, and after a
while Zeb. remarked that ho believed he
was just about the best dancer that North
Carolina ever sent to Congress.
"Now, nobody ever heard of Zeb.
Yaueo's virtues as a dancer before. Kverv
one knows that he doesn't iu the least le
semble a ballet girl. He ain't built right
to dam e and didn't believe he had ever
had any experience in lhat direction be
fore that night; but he stuck to his asser
tion. "Well, Zeb. kept repeating the state
ment until finally Siun says: 'Zeb, I don't
count myself any great shakes at a practi
cal exponent of the terpsichorean art, but
I allow that I can just dance the hind legs
off , if you.'
"Xow, Sion lligerswas built like a
bean-pole; he was over six feet high and
as thin as a wafer, and no living man ever
saw him without a big pair of eye glasses
adjusted to his loim nose. If it was 'unny
to think of Zeb. Vance's danciii'- ;t was
simply ridiculous to consider Sion Rogers
in that connection. Hut Shober said he
believed Sion could down Zeb.; I assert, d
to the contrary, and Shober bet ine one
li mi ,1 n il dollars.
"The room was cleared. Zeb. and Sion
peeled off their wealing apparel until noth
ing was left but nocturnal habiliments
and the two contestants took their posi
tions on the floor. It was an ill-assorted
pair never were two men more unlike.
Zeb. and Sion were told that the man who
stayed oil the Hour longest w:is to have a
halfdoien buttles of our wiuo. Shober
started the old plantation pat; the dancers
caught si,'p and went at it.
'"Ho it. Sion!' shouted Shober.
"-Buckle down tu it. Zeb.!' I exelaiui 'd
and both lu ll began to rattle oil' a double
sliutlli' hack step lhat would have turned
any uigger in North Carolina green with
envy.
"Time passed.
"Midnight came and went, the clock on
the mantle struck one. The daneiug still
went on.
"Daylight appeared. Vance was be
ginning to double like u hunchback, slid
he was sweating like a draft horse. Sion
seeniud to grow taller every minute; his
head was thrown back, his arms stood
ukiiuuo, only his t,s appeared to touch
the II nor, and not a drop of pcrspiratioti
was visible about him.
The hotel breakfast bell rang. Shober
ami 1 weie nearly exhausted, although we
look turns iu patting, hut the dancing still
went on. Z 'b's. shirt was sticking to him
like a huge court plaiter, but Sion looked
as cool as a Christmas snow sloitu. Zeb.
was bent over until be had nearly assumed
a silting MMturo, his buw-luga looking as
ruUlld a a baliul hoop Null coutlliiiotl
to grow taller, and his eyes-glasses still
preserved their equilibrium on the end of
his now.
"When l!i o'eliK'k came, and Congress
assembled, we suggested a recess. Hut
uu; Sion wuuldu't hear to it. Finally I
saw that Zeb. who now Mood only about
2 feet, 2 inches in his socks, was about to
subside, mid I gave up
"The artists then once more regaled
themselves with our wine, aud Zeb. went
to bed. But Sion didn't. After dancing
'.'ll Iioiiis without a stop, he went to the
Douse of Representatives and made a big
speech."
Ilypsics universally leveru the mairiage
and home relation. What other people
du? I say universally, and use that wold
unqualifiedly. There is not an exception.
The liuuie, under dinuy roof or beneath
the stars, is the dream, the type, the reali
zation of all attainable good. I do not de
fend them iu there religious infidelity; but
the religious faculty as we know it, develop
it, distort it, is so lacking ill them thai an
other seems to have taken its place. That
is home worship. Without ambition to
rule and rend and remodel the world, their
whole mental and heart power concentrates
upon and about their own. Kvery earthly
effort of the gypsy man, as of every decent
man. is for the home, the concrete shrine
within his simple holding. The gypsy
wife, not being civilized into a social harri
dan; not being developed into a literary,
art. or chinch gadabout; not being cultured
i ito a female devil fish, reaching her greedy
tentacles to every outlying slime and then
devouring her own home for self and so
cial distortion, has a whole body and soul
and devotion for those who call her wife
and mother. And so this gypsy family
that you scorn and my old poet friend calls
"rascals," form an all sufficient, invincible
love force that the combined assaults uf ill
fortune can never shock or endanger. That
is surely one thing worth remembering a
bout the gypsies. And it even begins
back of the suckling of the babe at the gyp
sy mother's breast. It is bred aud inbred
in pre-natal assimilated loyalty. Then ns
the children erne along with the years
they absolutely know nothing else or differ
ent, save about the Gorgios or non-gypsies,
among whom they see all that should be
avoided and of whom we know a few things
that should be changed. Kdgnr L. Wake

BETTER THAN BEER.
"Xo beer, thanks."
"It will do you good after working in
the street all morning," said the foreman
of a party of laborers from the I'ublic
Woiks Department to one of the most
intelligent of his workmen during a noon
ing on an uptown street the uther day.
"I d rather diink what I re got in my
bucket."
"What's that?"
"Oatmeal mid water."
"What do you drink that foi?"
To keep cool, same as you drink wa
ter." "It doesn't rest you like beer though."
"Try it once aud see. When I begun
drinking oatmeal in my water, my wife
had to almost make me take it. Now I
wouldn't be without it. I used to drink
a glass of beer every noon, two before su -per
and work the 'growler' before going to
sleep at night. That cost about twenty
live cents a day. Now I save all that
and get aloug just as well us before. I
don't know what there is about the meal
but when T have bad a drink of it I don't
care for beer or any thing else to drink.
You'd better try it yourself."
"Oat meal in water," explained a physi
cian to a reporter who had over heard the
above recorded dialogue, "is one of the best
drinks in the world for a workingman, es
pecially in warm weather. It is nutritive
satisfying and agreeable tothestomaeh. For
