And Lucy Estcourt was so nettled
that she rose up and whisked out of
the room, woik basket aud all.
It was the afternoon of the next
day that she took it into her capri
cious little head to visit a favorite
o'd pensioner ; an ancient, toothless
crone, who lived in a tenement
house in tho very dingiest part cf
the pretty little towu of Silver Falls,
and who was destined to occupy
one of tho rooms of tho Ifouio for
Indigeut Widows, when that boati
tic vtsioti became a certainty.
"Well, Midgetson, and how are
you " said Mrs. Estcourt, rustling
M)tily into tin loom, a radiant ap
praiiation of bio lies and golden hair
and attar of roses.
Mrs. Midgetson dropped her knit
ting, aud turned a manlike pair of
silrer spectacle toward the new
vomer.
"I'm as well as ever I expect to
be, my pretty dear,' said she,
"Only I'm clean worrited out of my
mind !"
'Worrited, Mrs. Midgetson?"
"With the soolding, deary, and
the confusion in the room next

paper. Listen yourself sweetheart,
and you'll hear.
Lucy Estcourt listened, and be
came aware of a vague confusion of
voices.
"But what it is, Mrs. Midgetson ?"
said the, half alarmed.
"It's poor Lizzie Wade, dear, as is
dying of consumption. And he
ain't beeu able to pay her doctor's
bill, as how should she, poor thing f

"The old wretch ' cried out Mrs.

the words :
"There's no use whimpering or
making a scene. You owe me for

for starving, I should starve, if
eveiybody swindled me out of my

"Doctor ! Doctor !'' pleadsd a
faint voice, "Pay don't take my

Take it away at once, before these
women have a chance to make any
more scenes.
At that moment Lucy Estcourt
opened the door of Mrs. Wade's
apartment, and stood there like a
beautifal avenging angel.
"Cartman,'' said she to the sym
pathetic Irishman, who stood vacil
lating iu the middle cf the room,
-put the machine back in its place.

beneath the indignant fire ot her
eyee, 'is the donatiou you jester

Aud without waiting either for
Elizabeth Wade's tearful thanks or
Doctor Angell's ready apologies,
she went back to Mrs. Midgeston's
snuffy-smelling little room, and be
can to cry.

that she went to church, not because
her pastor was up to her standard,
or was the best that could bo had,
but because she loved the church,
and long beeu associated with it.

where, but the preacher was a good
man, and the pastor of the church
of her choice and interest. So she
refused to go olsowhere. The showy

It waa a gay, convivial entertain
ment. Mabel Howard had been
united to the man of her choice.
Many young people were assembled
and all were enjoying themselves
greatly. The ruby contents of the
wino cup flashed ruddily in tha
light aud lent a glow to many a
manly cheek, and made many a
maiden's sparkle with brilliancy
Few were there who hesitated to
Kip the sparkling fluid.
Perhaps the most beautiful be
ing in the wholo assembly was Ma
bel Howard, who bad jut htn'ouia
wife of Hugh Harrison. She waa a
lady of uioft attractive form and
features, admired by all aud re
s pec ted for her strength ol charac
ter and nobility of nature. A friend
led her to the tahl and pouring
out a glass ot wine, trom tho decan
ter. o tiered it to her, inviting her to
drink with him. Mabln took the
glass and holding it arm's length,
and pointing at the sparkling wine,
the exclaimed :
"Drink it ! Drink that which has
been tho canso of so much misery
tome? Oncol had a noble and
genet ous father. No nobler man ex
isted than he. Admired, respeoted
aud honored by all for his talents
aud manly beauty, he waa never'
the.less ruined by the demon drink.
Lower and lower he fell, until he
became a miserable sot a disgrace
to humanity. And now he tills a
drunkards grave. One day frien
z ed by this, this which you ask me
to driuk, he struck my darling mO'i
tbtr his own wife a fierce blow,
aud felled her te the ground. Sha
never rose again for he killed her !
And yet you ask me to diink this!
T'us, which has brought so much
woe to me ? This, which has de
stroyed the happiness of so many
wives and daughters ard mothers !
This, which is a curse and DO'bing
bat c'nrse to society ! J Drink it ?
Ntdver !"
And she dashed tbe goblet to the
ground and broke it in into a thous
and pieces.
A solemu silence rested ou the as
sembly. Surprise and astonish
m int were visible on every counte
nance. The wine waa removed aod
never again was seen on the table
of that mansion. From that even
