He Ih not given tO' calling people names; he saya It in merely to put rae on my guard, for he known our neighbors falling, tthe is a very bright, bronzy little woman, and a* long uh the conversation la confin ed to the household affairs I quite enjoy chatting with her, but the moment that a human being, living or dead, chances to be mentioned, 1 begin to quake. The first time she called-? It was soon after we moved Into the neighborhood ?1 happeued to sa> that Mrs. Goodwin, from the oppo site side o fthe street, had been In to see me, and that she Impressed me as a very lovely character. "Oh, she is Indeed," said Mrs. "But" heartily, "she is Much a de voted wife and so good to the poor, but," uhe went on, lowering her voice, "there used to be a good duu^ of talk about her when she wan a girl, aud though I don't sup pose half the things that were pain were true, people don't seem to for get it." What necessity, there was for thU drop of poison to be instilled Into my mind I could not see.

One day when Mrs. "But" drop ped in she found my little friend, Nellie Uray, at tl>? ulauo.?Nellie U a shy, brown-eyed girl of fifteen, gifted with a wonderful ear for mel ody, and as the Grays' had no pia no, I had offered her mine. 1 can't help loving the child, she in such a warm hearted little creaturt and so eager for music," I said, as the door closed behind her. My visitor gave a scarcely per ceptible shrug. x "Yes, Nellie ueemu to be a very nice girl," she admitted, "but I suppose you know that she is poorhouae w'alf." "No," 1 said. I knew nothing of the kind. Mrs. Gray had introduc ed Nollie to me as her eldest daugh ter, and the Information volunteer ed by Mrs. "Hut" was utterly un called for.

Jonas made haste to change the subject; a word o fencouargement would have resulted in our hearing the whole history of the young fel low's boyhood. "I've no patience," he exclaimed, the moment we were by ourselves, "with people who are always bring ing up the past. Just imagine what heaven would be if the inhabitants were disposed to indulge In that Bort of retrospection! The Angel Gabriel himself would hardly bo safe from their disparaging 'buts,' and the whitest robe in all th ?white robed throng* would be in danger of being smutted." "And yet," I said, "Mrs."*'But" evidently considers herself a Chris HAPPY IS the woman who it never unprepar ed?Who can always lay a nice appetising meal or light luncheon before any guest?un expected or not.
