Sho was fair to look upon, this Alieo St. Avon, with her deep wine-dark eyes, the roseate bloom on her dimpled cheeks, and the willuwy grace of her tall, well devel oiied fjoure. She would not ill have grac- :d the purple and ermine of a princess of lite blood, yet she was nothing more than governess, sittinj; there in the grey win ter twilight, with Charley Wordcn'a weary little head restiug on her lap. "Hush!" said the child suddenly, with uplifted finger; ' hear them laughiug duwn stairs. Oh, MUs St. Avon, happy they must be." "Why do you not go down stairs, Char ley, and enjoy yourself with the other ihildren?" "I did, Miss St. Avon, and Auut Lois frowned at me, and told tne to go out again with my old faded, ragged clolhes. I wish I had nice clothes. Miss St. Avon." "Have you asked your uncle to buy them for you?" 'Uncle says I nm a nuisance and he shall have me bound out to some trades man." "Charlie, I thought you had some mon ey of your own." "I thought 80 too," aaid the little fellow with a puulcd look. "When first papa brought me here, uncle and aunt were so glad, and kissed me, and said what a beau tiful child I was, tnd that they would love me like their own. 0!i, Mi s St Avon, do you supiose papa will never come home again?" She smoothed his flaxen hair tenderly. "I do not know, Charley." "But Miss St. Avon what do you think." 'I do not like lo think about it at all, Chailey." If she had told him what were Iter real thoughts, his little heart would have been heavier than ever. Foi Alice kuew, from what she had heard at one time, that Mr. Wordcu was supposed to have been lost with the other, pai&engers when the good hip Marie Antoinette went down oft" the coast of Franco. "No need tell the child," Mrs. Parker Worden had said. And they bud calmly gone on drawing the dividends that should have been little Charley's. Alice did uot koow how cruelly th lonely little orphan was wronged and slighted, but she felt all her leuder, worn auly sympathies aroused in his behalf. "Does your headache much, Chailey?" ' It aches uio-l all th- tim., Mi.- St Avon. Nurse pay its b cut 1 i.e ( ealchiugvold sleeping ill tile garret." "But why d m't you sleep with liupert and Alfred? ' ' They won't 'el tne; they say I mo m and cry amlili t rb ilc in in my al cp." "My poor li tic man!" murmured Alice, drawing him ilos r 1 1 tier. "Ilt.sh! ihcie is the dinner b.H, run duwu now." "I don't lake diuuer with uuole and aunt and my cou.-ius; I eat with the ser vants." "With lb) servants! How is that Charley?" Alio Si. Avon had k-cn away for i month, attending the bed of 1 cr aunt, the only surviving relative she had, and these latter regulations were iuile new to her. "Aunt Lois raya there are children enough at the table, and that I must not route there any more. It aoems," he add ed with a little piteous sigh, "that I am in the way everywhere" Poor little Charley! he was not very far wroug in the supposition that had ioroed itself upon his childish ennsciousnuas, Alice went up with him to the lonely garret which was his sleeping place now, for the child teemed feverish and far from well that eight. It waadark, dismal and bitterly cold; a bard straw mattress, with no pillow, and an insufficieut aupply of blanket, !y in one corner, "Merciful IIivcn!"ejnajUti the young governess involuntarily, "whst a place!" Charley crept closet to her. "I wouldn't mind it so much, Miss St. Avon," he whispered, "but I am afraid of the big, black rats that come out at night and look at me with their bright oyea." "You ought not lo sleep here, Charley you, a sick child!" "Aunt Luis says I must, and I am ufiitid of Aunt Lois." "Afraid? Why?" "She heals me," whispered tho child, hanging his head; "she strikes mo on the oar when I dare to complain." "I will speak to her myself. Come, Charley," and Alice reluctantly descended the Btairs, holding hor little charge by the hand. Mrs. Pniker Worden was in her bed room dressing for a b ill, her long black hjir hanging loosely about her shoulders. Sho looktd up in surprise when Miss St Avon entered, but a heavy frown deepen ed upon her bold, black brows as bIio saw her tiny companion. 'May I ask why you have thus intruded upon me, Jliss St. Avon?" "To plead the cause of this poor child, madam. "And who constituted you his intorces 801?" "My own sense of right and justice. Hi is weak and ill; the cold garret is no place for him to sleep iu. I uiinie to ask you as a favor, that he may share my room with me. Mrs. Worden's eyes flashed. "I will have no interference with the domestic regulations with my household You are dismissed from my employment Miss St. Avon; consider the conscnucuccs of your officious interference at your leis ure." Alice colored deeply, but still she stood firm. "I will not leave this helpless, ailin child lo your persecution and niglcct, madam? "Take him with you, then, and wel come, sneered .Mrs. i orden, "aud a pret ty pair of beggars you will be." "Will you treat him as your relationship and his helplessness reituirc?" "No, I will not." "Then," said Miss St. Avon, compress ing her lips resolutely, '! will take you al your word and adopt the poor little fellow I am nut rich like you, but a crust a day given by (he hand of love, would be pre lerrable (o the miserable bondage of the life he now leads." M rs. Worden only laughed contemptu ously, and Alice went back to her own room, still holding Charley by the hand. "Charlie," she said at last, "will you go home with tue, and be my boy?" Charlie clung sobbing around her neck 'Oh, Miss St. Avun, I love you so much I would go with you to the cod of the world." Then it is all settled, Charley. I dare say, she added, speaking more to herself than to him, "I can get needle work to do or a few pupils in music." Or," chimed in Charley, wistfully, "1 could sell mutches. Alice smiled at this suggestion. " ell, we will see, Charley. e won t try the match business, at least for the present. But henceforth remember that you are my dear little brother, and I your sister Alice." And so the brave young girl went out into the world, the self constituted protec tress of Charley Worden, whose forlorn loneliness and piteous isolation had ap pealed to ber heart so irresistibly. Mdllc. Penelopine, tho French govern i, had not reigned in the Worden house hold as successor to Miss St. Avon m re than a month or two, when one day a tullt dark stranger called, during the temporary abscucc of the head ot the family, and en quired for little Charley Worden. ' lie has run away from his kind friends," replied the Parisienne, glibly repeating the t'alxhood with which she had been piomp t.d. "li s no such thing?" roared M ister Ru pert, who was in high feud with Mdllc I'etielopitie in consequence of various neg lected French exercises. "Miss St. Avon m -ptcd him and took hiui away from u--'cause mauiuia und p tpa wes mi ugly lo him." "And who is Miss Si. Avon, and where docs' she live?" eagerly questioned the t rai.g. r. "She'sour old governess, aud she's a deal nicer than the old Frenchy, defiantly bawl e I the young scapegrace, "and she lives down on Rusaell street, next door but one (o the r ast chestnut man's corner." ' Will you hold your tongue, you bad boy," ejaculated the mademoiselle; but the visitor had already learned enough from Master Rupert's unbridled tongue, and turned away with a stern look on his hindsomo features. "And this is th-! way," he murmcred, that they have fulfilled llio sacred trust cojindtted to their care." Little Chailey Worden was sitting on the rug in front of the fire, spelling over his reading lesson. Alios St. Avon was busiid on a piece of delicately fine em broidery, ostensibly listening to the child's hesitating accents, but in reality racking her brain aa to how she was to meet the quarterly demand for rent due on the morrow. Had she undertaken too much? Surely no. He who caret li lor the young ravens would help her to maintain the forlorn lit tle orphan. Yet Alice's face was unwontedly grave, when a low knock sounded on the panels of the door. "Sister," cried tho child, jumping up, "may I go lo the door?" "Yes, Charley." Charley opened it eagerly. The next moment he was caught up in the iiims of a tail man, bronsed and beared, and handsome as Apollo, "Papa! My own papa!" And Alice St. Avon started up aa pale as if she had seen a ghost risen from the sheeted dead. "Papa, its my sister Alice. Kiss her too, papa. But Mr. Worden only bowed with cour teous greeting. "I have startled you, I fear, Miss St. Avon; nor do I wonder much. For when I thiuk of the narrow escape I have bad from perishing with the oilier passengers of the ill-fated Marie Antoinette, I am startled myself. You have been kind lo my poor, neglected, worso than orphaned boy: how shall I ever thank you sufficient- ly?" Alice St Avon felt tho rosy blood man tling her cheek nsshe stood confused be- ueath the earnest guse of tho stranger; she scarcely knew in what words to answer, nil unaware that in her case silence was more eloquent than tho readiest words. "And now if you will retain the charge of ibis boy of mine a brief while luniier.'' added Mr. Worden, "I will go to sue about taking legal measures to regain tho wealth left in trust to my brother Parker, for the benefit of Charley werlth which has tip parently been directed tj other purposes. "You will come back, papa," pleaded Charley, half fearful he was to bo orphan ed a S'3cond lime. "I will rcluru very soon, my child." The dismay of Mr. and Mrs. Parket Worden, when their brother, supposed to be sleeping beneath the briny waves of the ocean, appeared before them like some righteously avcnising spirit, can bo more easily imagined than described' "He shan't have the money back!" screamed Mrs. Worden. "It's an imposi tion to come back here when everybody supposed him dead and buried." "But my dear," meekly interposed the somewhat henpecked husband, "we can't help ourselves; ho has the law on his side. I wish we had retained Charley; I'm afraid the world will judge us very harshly." "Only think, sister Alice," cried Charity a few weeks subsequently, "papa is goiug .to take mc out to live always at that beau, tiful house in tho country, where the foun tains and the swatH and the statues are. I am so glad!" "Clad to leave me. Charley?" "Oh, but you are going, loo. Papa said so." "Not so fast, Charley, not so fast," inter rupted his father, coloring in his turn. "I did not say exactly that; I said I should ask Miss St. Avon to go as my wife." "As your wife, Mr. Worden?" "Alice, my biy'a guardian ang.d, my own prcciniH treasure), lb i brighest plaeo the earth ever saw would bo drear and lone ly to me now without you. H ill you be come my dear and cherished wife?" And Alice St. Avon answered: "Yes." They are very happy together now Mr. Worden, bis lovely young wife and the little fair-haired boy; aud Alice sees in all the gloomy past God's hand leading her on to that haven of serenity.

A FOURTEEN DOLLAR KISS. James Bross, a sturdy, although aged, citizeu, of New London, came to this c'ty to sec the sights lust Sunday. While wandering along Cherry street that even ing he noticed a crowd of blithsomo girls laughing ami chatting on a corner. While he was passing the merry group he was most astonished to suddenly find a pair of arms around his neck. At lite same time a silvery voice exclaimed : "Oh, you dear, old darling, give tue a kiss." Mr. Bross had never been greeted in New Loudon that way. "Go 'way, go 'way, you bold girl," cried he. "You ought to bo ashamed of your self." "Oh, beg pardon," said the girl, who had stolen a kiss from the aged New Lon doner. "I mistook you for my father." Mr. Bross passed on, laughing over the joke until he stepped into a store to buy a cigar, when he was astonished to find that $ 1 4 h j h id in his vest pocket was gone. He found a policeman, who arrested Anna Clark, a black eyed maiden, whom Bross identified as ihe girl who kissed him. Justice Kilbretli, in tho Tombs police court, held Anna in $1,000 bond for trial. CAN'T doiici-; 'i:M. A Wayne County farmer, who had a little time to spare during tho drought, went ut it and created seven artificial mounds to resemble graves in a field close to the road. Signboards were put up and labeled: "Tramp No. 1," "Trump No. 2,'' aud so on through, und when the woik was finished the granger went up to the house with a grin on his face and said to his wife : "That 'ere dodge will beat all the laws in Michigan to keep tramps away." Breakfast was not yet over next morn ing when there was a knock on the kitchen door, and the farmer opened it lo find five gaunt tramps standing in a half circle. "You here!" he yelled, as soon as he could credit his senses. "Didn't you see those graves down by the road ?" "Wo did, sir," answered the oldest tramp for all. "That's why wo stopped. We wanted to know if they come to their death by overeating." NKW Al) KRT.SIOlKiNXa. c 10MMIB8IO NKU'S SALE.

This was followed by a cuuh and shortness of breath, until finally I could not sew, and I took to my bed for the second, ' and, as I thought, for the last time. My friends told me that my time had nearly come, mid that I could not live longer than when the trees put on their green once more. Then I happened to get one of the Sei gel pamphlets. I read it, and my dear mother bought ine a bottle of Skkiki.'s Svuit, (Shaker Extract of Roots) which I took exactly according to directions, mid I hail not taken the whole of it before I felt a change for the better. My last illness began June 3d, 1882, ami continued to August fltli, when I began to take the Kvrup. Very soon I could do a little light work. The cough left me, and I was no more troubled in breathing. Now 1 am perfectly cured; and oh, how happy I nm! I cannot express gratitude enough for Skhikl's Syhi'p (Shaker Ex tract of Hoots). Now I must tell you that (he doctors in our district distributed handbills cautioning this people against the medicine, telling them it would do no good, and many were thereby influenced to de stroy th" Seigel pamphlets; but now, whenever one is to be found, it is kt pt like a relic. The few preserved are bor rowed to read, and I have lent mine for six miles around our district. People have come eighteen miles to get me to buy the medicine, for them, know ing that it cured me, and to be sure to get the right kind. I know a woman who was look ing like death, and who told them there was no help for her, that she had consulted several doctors, but Hone could help her. I told her of Seigel'a Syrup, iMid wrote the name down for her that she might make no mistake. She took my advice and the Syrup, and now she is in jierfect health, and the people around us are amazed. The medicine haa made such progress in our neighhorhiod that people say they don't want the doctor any more, but they take the Syrup. Sufferers from gout who were confined to their beds and could hardly move a finger have lieen cured by it. There is a girl in our district who caught a cold by going tlu'otuxh some water, and was in bed live years with eostivenessand iheinwaticpains, anil had to have an attendant to watch by her.
