> ' I J I - I * -T' --** *? ? WHAT CAME TO DILLY'S HOUSE. 1 l>i ly was perched on a fence-post, her light hair flying about hor lace, as usual, ? and her littlo rod hands clasped behind her 1 back. The three or four small toes that I peeped out through her ragged shoes were a red, also, for the autumn day was cold; but ? Dilly was used to such trifles. Toddles, the i baby, who could uot climb the fence, con tented himself with looking through. He a was bundled up?iu en odd fashion, <?r Dilly*a t own inventing?in an old shawl; and if the ? round face that peered betweou the feuce* rails was roughened by the chill wind, he, 1 like l>illy, had grown accustomed to such 1 discouilorts. 1 It occurred to Freddy llurr, iu the next y yard, however, that their situation was c scarcely agreeable, lie looked up from the stick lie was trying to split with his new t hatchet, aud asked : s "What makes von sit nri ihor.? simli ? /! ?? as this ? Why don't you go into the house t and keep warm ?" o "'Cause I'd rather stay here and watch 'I you," said Dilly, serenely. '"Taiu't no tun s in the house." d "Well, I wouldn't think it was any fun out here, I can tell you, if I didn't have a b warm coat and scarf and these thick boots," 1 remarked Frt Idy, displaying the pair of red- 1 tops that were his pride. t Dilly loo';ed at them, and an old, vague d wonder awoke as she did so, and grew more g distinct, until prcscutly it took shape in I words: 1 "Why dou't I have such good things, too, a Freddy Durr?shoes and new clothes and t something to wear on my head ?" ^ "'Causo your father drinks 'eui up," an- h f-wcrcd Freddv. nromntlv. aud without, thn s slightest hesitation in disclosing the truth, f Dilly pondered a momeut and as promptly u denied, b 4,Xo, he don't, either. Folks can't drink ii such things. Where do you get yours ?" I ' My father buys 'cm for me ;and the roa- fi son yours don't get any for you is 'cause li they all go into old Barney's rum-barrels, d down at the corner. That's the way of it, true as you live, Dii'y Kocnc; and it's aw- si ful mean, too !" declared Freddy, growing indignant, as he explained. o Then a voice from the pretty house boy- f ond called Freddy ; and he ran in, while Billy and Toddles, with their amusemcut of watching ended,turned slowly away. Dilly I surveyed the baby and herself thoughtfully) t and sat down upon an old log to meditate, i If what Freddy Burr had told her was true something ought to bo done about it, and 1 the longer she pondered the more fully she becauic convinced that sba had heard the L truth. n ' 'Cause other folks has things and wc g don't and it must be ours go somewhere '1 else." film ronsiimil i"i'|lnir l..? ...... .1 good there either. I'm jus< sure they can't. Mobby I've got a hood?utebby it would be o a nice red one, pretty and warm. Wish I had it now. Wish Toddles had"? d She stopped, as a brilliant plan Hashed suddenly through her brain. Wouldn't her s: mother be surprised, if she could do that? g poor mother, who was out washing, and who c woull be so tired when she came homo at , ji night. j t< ' Toddles, let's do it!" she said, springing | (] up, excitedly. "Let's go an' see if we can r; get some of 'cm." u "Yah !" answered Toddles, contentedly ; | and taking his hand, Oilly opened the j creaking gate and led the way down the street. p There were a number of uieu in the store o at the corner?a queer store, with a curtain t across the lliw<?r llllIP of it? min/lnto c. Dilly saw them when the door opened; but s she was a deti nnined little body, when once : fi she had decided upou the proper thing to j I do. So she only clasped Toddlcs's hand ; t closer, and walked in and up to the counter, | making an extra cfl'ort to speak distinctly, 1 because her heart beat so fast. I ' Please, sir have you got anything of t ours a soak here ?" v Thcro was an instant's silence, and then t a shout cf laughter from the men. It ' Well, now, that's a neat way of putting n it. Iloy, Kccne, these youngsters of yours want to know if liaruoy has you in soak d here ?" h An old slouched hat behind the stove b was raised a little, hut there was no other tl sign that the man heard. Dilly shrank f< back abashed. n 'Oh ! I didn't mean him." a What diil you mean, then ?" asked a 't coarse, red-faced man, advancing from be- !i bind the bar, and speaking in tones not at al! gentle or amiable. , . v Shoos and coats and such tilings," Ailtcrod Diily. ' Hoods?I'm 'Iraid it's spoil- jf cd with the whiskey ; but inebby Ma could c wash it out. Wouldn't you take some of li 'em out of your barrel, Mr. iJirney? We J need oiu awiui bad." " ' [ should think as much," muttered o:ic ^ of the bystanders, surveying the two dilapi- |. dated figures; but Mr. Harney's w.atli was c rising. b "What barrel? Who sent you here?" c ho demanded, angrily. r "Your ruin barrel," answered Dilly, c standing her ground desperately, though with a little catch in her breath, that was ri just ready to break into a sob. "Ma wgrks ? hard all the time, and she looks so sorry ; \ and we dmi't have any nice dinncisatour <1 house, like Freddy Hurr's; nn l no new | shots, nor caps, nor anything. I asked r I { ? . ? I 'reddy where our good tilings went to. I cause they don't on'.c to our house; and he aid you had 'cm down here in yoi?r barrels. < Mease, do take some of 'oui out, M r. Barney 'insure it can't make anybody's drink taste bit better to have a poor little boy's and ;irl's now shoes and dresses n;.d everything i the barrel." 'You're right there, Sissy. It nigh ibout spoiled the taste of mine," said one of ho group at the counter, patliug down his ;lass with a queer, perplexed look. Hut there was no perplexity iu the barkeeper's look. That was wrathful. "We've lad enough of this nonsesa! Now, you eave, you young ragamuffins, a3 fast as our feet will carry you, and never let nic atcli you inside these doors again." He stepped toward them, as if to drive hem out, but the man behind the stove ud donly arose. 9 Take care, Harney! You'd better uot ouch them. You've knocked uic about ften enough, but you'd bust let them alone." 'here was a fire in the eyes under the old touched hat, before which Mr. Barney Irew back. Both children were crying by that time ; tut the lather took a hand of each. "Come lilly ; come, Baby," and without a word or ook to his companions, he passed out into he street. It was a very silent walk. Todlle's tears wore dried as soon as the strau;cr, whoso loud voice had awakened his a by terror, was out of sight; but poor little )illy's heart was sore with disappointment nil fear. She had failed in the scheme hat she had thought promised so fairly, io hood nor shoes had she seen, after all or bravery in venturing into that dreadful tore ; and who could tell how augry her ather might bo '! She stole shy glauees up aider the old hat; but she ouly saw a soer, downcast face, and he said uolhiug, ot even when they had reached home. Ie hunted up some fuel and made a letter re, aud then sit down before it,.with his icad between his bauds, and left the chilren to their own devices. l>ut two weeks later Dilly completed the lory, confidentially, to Freddy llurr. "See hero !" she said, pushing the toes f a pair of stout new shoes through tiro eucc. ' Where did you get 'eui ?" asked Freddy. "Aud sec hero !" continued Dilly, bobdug up for au instant, to show the hood hat covered her yellow hair, and touching t significantly with her linger. "Where did you get 'cm ?" repeated f reddy. "My I'a worked and bought 'cm, and rought 'cm home ; and they di '.n't get into obedy's barrel," explained Dilly, with rcai priuo ana nine regard lor grammar, "hen she pressed her small face close against he fence, fur a prolonged interview. ' You see, the billennium has couic to ur house." "The what ?" questioned bewildered Fredy "The billennium. It's a pretty long word,' tid Dilly, couiplacently; "hut it means ood times. Anyhow, that's what Ma ailed it, and I guess she knows. It was ast this way, Freddy Burr. When you ,ld mo Mr. Harney had all our nice things own to his store, in a barrel, 1 just went ight down there, and asked him for 'em ? 10 and Toddles." "You didn't!" exclaimed horrified Fredy. "Did too, !" declared Dilly, with an cinhatic nod. "Well, he wouldn't give uic lie of 'eui, and he was just as cross as any- j It-ng. So, then, my l'a got up from tho tovc and walked home whh us. He didn't cold a bit; hut ho just sat down before the ire, this way, and lliiukcd -and thinked U last, he put his hand in one pocket, hut here wasn't anything there : and then ho >ut it in the other, and found ten cents, and >e went out ana nought some mcft for sup>er. Thou, when Ma came home, he talked o her, and they both cried?I don't know irhat for, 'loss it was cause wc couldn't get lie things out of that old barrel. And Ma lugged and kissed iiio most to death that ight, she did. 'Well, my Pa got sonic work the next ay, and brought home money; and now lie as found a place to work every day. lie ought all these things, and ho says his litId boy and girl shall have things like ot^er ?lks.

Tub Unlucky Day.?For one rcasc or another, Friday, from time imuicu orial, was reckoned an unlucky d.i among nearly all the various brauchcs < the Aryan family of nations, embracin the Greek, Latin, Celtic, Teutonic, an Slavonic races, or in other words, the anee tors of pretty nearly all the present po| ulalions of Europe. This was the cas long before any of these races wore Chris tianized. The Romans classed Friday in t! ne fasti <//'< , on which the courts were fo bidden to sit ; and it was one of the u lucky days of that sort on which worship the gods, or, at least, religious feasts, wet never celebrated. A I ter the introduction i Christianity the day became still niofcj ol noxious to the people, because it was hel that Christ expired ou the cross ou Frida April 3, 33 A. 1). It scouts that in vei early times in the history of English juris prudence it became a common practice i selecting a day for the execution of criui in ils to choose a Frid iy. This pructh was transplanted to the crust of this coat try in colonial times, and has becu gone ally, though not inviriably, observed eve since, uot only in the original tliirtcc States, but in all the States. There is r statutory provisions, so far as we can le.ar making it obligatory on judges to folio this old custom. Ic only remains to ad: that the superstition that Friday is an ui lucky, evil day, is so deeply rooted in tl minds of thousands of intelligent, cducati people, that they cannot bo induced to si sail-ou a voyage, start on any kind of jouruey, or commence any new catcrprii on that d ly of lite week. The saute supc stition prevails among the the Hindoos. Negroes Voting tiik Greenbac Ticket.?
