"Sq’m I tired,” responded Jack in n voice full of tears which ho bravely re pressed. "Let’s go over there and try our luck again. I’ll play for ye, but I can't sing. It hurts me here,” placing his hand on his chost. They crossed the street to a Bi>ot where a group of men where standing. Jack’s hands, numb with cold, could scarcely hold the squeaky violin, "while Ted’s feet shuffled clumsily on the side walk in a vain attempt to keep time to the dismal music. Warmly-clad men a^ wQWwihunied by, never deigning to glance at the young minstrels. Doubt less many of them, when seated at their yyarin firesides, would shed tears of pity over a graphic newspaper account of two homeless boys standing in the win try twilight, the thermometer at Eero, striving to earn sufficient to Induce their souls to abide a while longer in their fam< ished bodies; yet on tliis particular even ing not one of the hundred ]>edestnans [mused tq look at the little fellows. Even the lean, hungry dog that had been searching in the gutter for a bone, slunk away, ns if finding it unpleasant to come in contact with misery greater than his own. " Tain’t no nae. Jack.” aaid Ted, "people won’t take the trouble to find n penny for ns when it’s so cold.” Jack nodded a doleful assent to the words, tucked the violin under his arm, and the two walked away in a listless manner. They wandered on for some time, and finally stopped before a house and gazed with longing “eyes into the Imaement dining-room where a-family of three persons were seated at the table. "Oh, my! it looks nice in there,” whispered Ted. "Look, Jack, they’ve got turkey an’ sweet pertaters I Wish we had some. See that girl with the yeller hair an’ white frock 1 Ain’t she purty?” "Yes,’’rcpliied his companion wearily. "Some folks have good times and othe; don’t. I’ve been watching the dog by the fire. I suppose he’ll get a nice din ner too." - At that momenta servant pulled down the shade. „ —* _ "What did ahe do that for?” com plained Ted. "We didn’t do no harm jest peepin’ at them.” As the lads turned regretfully away, they were accosted by a forlorn-looking apecimen of manhood, who, like them- sclves, shivered with the cold. _ "Why are you on the street a night like this, youngsters ? Why don’t you go home ?” he asked. “ ’Cause we ain’t got no home,” re plied Ted "Poor lads! I thought I was -iho only homeless wayfarer abroad tliis bit ter night Haven’t you any parents ?” " Never had any. Hod a xn&mmy once, but she’s dead. Jack never hod nobody." ' " Then you are not brothers ?” "No,” replied Jack, speaking with difficulty. "When I was a baby my father gave me to Ted’s mother and promised to take cafe of me, but he went off and we never heard from him. Guess he’s dead too. Oh, Ted!” he cried sud denly, grasping his companion's hand, "Ifeel so bad I—can’t—stand—up —any—longer.” "Perishing with oold/and hunger!” muttered. the tramp compassionately. " Hold on a minute and I will see if I can beg a hot drink for you.” Lifting the boy in his arms he knocked at the door. " Will you give me a cup of tea and a crust for this child, who is dying from oold and want of nourishment ?” he asked of the servant who answered the sum- “Who is it, Mary?” called a toice from th« dfsing room. "A man with a starving child asking for food," replied the girl "Give them something, Mary. Twould be dreadful to turn a hungry dog away such a oold night." The speaker step ped into the hall. "Is it your child? ’ nlw» addressing the* tramp. "No, madam I simply found him at your door atarTing.’’ He oast one glance toward the lady, ‘fast Ida head fall forward and began to tremble as if attacked with a sudden fit ‘Too nmst be very oold; will you not go into the kitchen while the girl pro- ^ iUL about him which caused the ledy to ad* dress him in a certain tone of rpapect, - '"In the name of humanity, I thank you, madam. There are two children; but the one in my arms seems quits ill" — The mistress of the house glanced curiously at him;'then, turning to the child dinging to her dress, said: "Bun up stain to papa, Daisy," The little girl obeyed reluctantly, and the mother went to the kitchen, where she found the man seated by the fire, stiil holding the sick boy in his arms, and Ted huddled near the range with on ex pression of intense satisfaction on his small, pinched face, while Bridget, the c<kik, eyod the party with extreme dis pleasure. Mrs. Comstock tucked up her dainty robe, end with her white jeweled hands helped to prepare a meal for them. Ted ate ravenously of the goodies placed liefore him. Jack swallowed a cup of hot tea, but refused the food. The tramp also ]K)liteIy declined the generous din ner placed lieforo him. "Something must be done for this child,” said Mrs. Comstock, looking piti fully at the white face contracted with pain. ~"-H*ve tfaBjruo friends?" "No; they are homeless and friend less, like my—” v He paused abruptly. She questioned Ted, who related the short, sad history. “What is your name, dear? Have you no relatives ?” she inquired. "Ted“Davis; an’ his name is Jack Holbrook." . "Oh, God! is it possible that this is my child!” exclaimed the tramp, in • voice of deep emotion. Mrs. Comstock looked eagerly at the man whoso still handsome face, all>eit scarred with traces of sfti and degrada tion, assumed an expression of woe pitiful"to behold. "Tell me,” he murmured, hoarsely, " was your mother's name Mary Davis?” When Ted nodded an assent to the question, he bent over the child, on his knees, saying: "Oh, Jack, my poor lit tle hoy, I thought you were in Heaven long ago!" Mrs. Comstock, who had grown pale to the very lips, turned away, murmur ing in an agitated voice: "I will con^nU.my.lwuilHoai- ss'to—* "You need hot, Bessie!” interrupted the tramp, starting to his feet. "How dare you address me by that name!” she cried, in a tone of indigna tion. His abject air of misery touched her. ""If this child-is yours, I too have a claim upon him. But you may be mis taken,” she observed more gently. "I eau soon determine that point," he went on. " When I took him from yon I marked the initials ' J. H.’ on his baby arm." While he was endeavoring to TUirnp the child’s sleeve, Mrs. Comstock eyed him distrustfully. This may be a trick to extort money from me, she thought. Suddenly the tramp leaned forward, kissed tire-small, thin arm, and burst into sort of wailing cry. "Oh, Jack! my poor little chap, I did not intend to cause you so much suf. fering!” “ Hush I” said Mrs. Comstock gently; "the servants in the dining-room may hear you.” Then the maternal Instinct in her breast told her that this man who, in her girlhood days had so grossly deceived her, was not playing her false now. She Ix-nt over and laid her white face against tiro suffering one of the child. ' The tramp raised his soiled band, and was alrout to lay it on her head, but withdrew it again, saying: "Believe me, I regret this more, infin itely more, than all the wrong-doings of iny life. After the divorce was granted you, and I alnlucted the child,partly be cause I loved him and partly through revenge, I gave him to the woman Davis, and shortly after was obliged to absent myself from the city for twe years. When ! returned she had disap- ]H'ured. I made inquiries among her former neighbors, and was told that the child was dead. u —- "It was Jack Davis—Ted’s brother— who died,” whispered the sick boy, who faintly comprehended that he had found, his father at last. __ "I knew of your second marriage; envied the peace you had found and de termined to keep the child’s death a secret, - hoping thereby to causa. your heart a pang qi anguish when rcmcm- 1 wring his uncertain fete. My^widkeiT^" intentions have rebounded upon myself. God knows I would give you ^all the miserable years I may yet live could I undo the cruel deed. I will take him to an hospital, and when he recovers, I will, for his sake, try to redeem myself.” "No,” said Mrs. Comstock, "yon shall not take him from me again. Stay a moment; I will tall my husband all and see what he will suggest” "Oh, Bessie! spare me the shame of meeting the man who occupies the place in voor heart I once filled,” he pleaded saaly. Love for Jack Holbrook had died out years before; yet ahe pitied the trem bling outcast who had strayed to her door—pitied without being able to con nect him with the handsome, dashing, young fellow who had won and trampled ui>on her girlish offecti|£s. "My husband is the soul of generosity and will gladly help yon to begin life anew. Hajk-J" ahe went on, assuming a listening attitude, “I hear his footstep now; he is coming to see what has de tained me so long.” Mr. Comstock entered the kitchen and was greatly amazed when in a few hur ried words his wife explained the state of affairs. " _ , “Do whatever you please my darling,” he said, "I will consent to anything that will make you happy." Jack Holbrook looked at the woman who had once been his wife with a bitter pang of regret; then at his own tattered garments and a flash of shame rose to his cheeks. At Bessie’s request ha oar- ned the riok fag upatain. An hour latex f Tn the family physician arrived and declared the* child to be dangerously ill with pneumonia. Through the long hour* of the night the Mmavmad pair watched at 4 tWr Mac flMML Who •hall say what Jaek Holbrook’s reflec tions were ss ha reviewed Me peat life of folly and sin that had led him step by step Into the lowest depths of degrada tion. ' * In the midst of his most scute suffer ings, poor little Jack vaguely wondered why the pretty,lady kissed him so often; and why, when she left the roam fchks moment, the man who had befriended him kissed the same spot her lips had touehed. The doctor- returned at An early hour and aaid the child could not IKwsibly recover. Everything that ten derness could devise was done to assuage his pain, and at nightfall the frail body was at rest. An hour or two before be died Bessie raised him in her arms say ing: ;"Look at me Jack. . I am your own dear mamma who lost you long ago. I prayed every day that you might be ra stored to me. Yon are going to God my darling, but we will meet again in heaven. ‘Do you think you will knqw me, Jaek?’" "Oh my boy!” aaid hie father, ".for- tfive me before you go. -1 have been the cause of all your suffering, Ask your mother to forgive 1 'me too.” "I forgive and mamma forgives,” mur mured the child. . 7 Bessie reached out her hand as a token of pardon. For a moment Jack Holbrook held it in his own, but neither spoke a word. Presently Bessie said tearfully:,-^ "Perhaps this dear child^waa restored to me in order to teach me the divine lesson of forgiveness; and it may be for the purpose of leading you back to a bet tor life. God grant that his mission may not have been in vain.” After the funeral Mr. Comstock had a long conversation with Jack Holbrook, who appeared like a different individual when attired in a decent suit of clothes. "As a guarantee of my belief in your amcere repentance, l am ready to supply you with means to leave the city and go to some place where your history is un known, that you may begin life over again,” olmerved Mr. Comstock, hand ing him a roll of bills. The poor outcast was overwhelmed at this unexpected fft! tfifnlly to follow the advice. ‘‘May God bless you and your wife," he said falteringly. "You are worthier of her than I ever, could have been. Tell her I will remember Jack’s mis sion." r • Ted was sent to a home for friendless boys, bat is now a clerk in Mr. Com stock’s offiee-and desperately in love with the "yeller haired gurL” Occa- Monally Mr. Comstock hears from and writes to Jack Holbrook, who is a pros perous merchant in a Western town. i'saie and Jack are the guardian angels of hk existence, and he hopes to meet them again in that place vrhere there is "no ciarrynlg or giving in marriage,” • Then He e’en tin nod. Several men were seated in. a Detroit drug store the other day with their feet on the stove and a cigar in each motith, when a boy looked in and yelled oht: "Some of yon had a horse hitched out here ?” M I believe I did," quietly replied one of the sitters. "Well, he’s gone.” ‘‘Did he walk off?” j "No; a runaway horse came along and ujwet the cutter and frightened him.” _ "AnI did he kick himself clear of the cutter ?f-Tr:— -r, "Yes.” *‘I supposed he would.

Bnb, you might draw the cutter to some shop and tell ’em to fix it, and here’s a quarter for yon.” ' " . ' The boy went out to pick np the kind lings and invent a way to draw a cutter half a mile on one runner, and the sitter relighted his cigar, got a new brace for 1m feet, and said; One day two Foxea who ware journey ing together came acroas a Track in the dust which much astonished them. “I believe it is the fraok of a Bhinoo-* eras,’’observed OD&v “I think it is that of an Elephant,” re plied the Other. “I aey Rhinoceros!” it _ ‘ ‘And I say Ityephant 1” “Them! travel no longer with each an idiot I” "Then you can travel alone with a Fool!” They were cuffing each other about in a lively manner, when along came a Wolf and asked the cause of the trouble. "Why, that Bigot sticks to.it that this is not - the track of a Bhinoceros!” shouted one. "And he, the Narrow-minded ^lul- d<x>n, won’t admit that it is the Track of an Elephant,” added the other. ‘‘Gentlemen,’’ said the Wolf as he examined the spot, " this is simply the place where a fat man struck a Banana Peel and sat down to Befloct.

The boys and girls who were pre disposed to matrimony used to sit up to gether on Sunday nights, dressed in their Sunday clothes. . They occupied usually a corner in ffte family room in the cabin, while the bed of the old folks occupied the opposite corner, with blankets suspended around it for curtains. During the earlier part of the evening the old and young folks engaged in a common chit-chat . ' About eight o’clock the yoimger chil dren climbed the ladder in the corner and went to bed in their bunks under the garret-roof; and in about an hour later father and mother retired to bed behind the bed-blanket curtains, leaving the "sparkers” sitting at a respectful distance apart, before a capacious wood fire-place, and looking thoughtfully into the cheerful flame, or perhaps into the -future* r " _ "Z ' As I was saying, every sign indicates that this is to be a year of great confla grations.

But on looking over his way bills the conduc tor found that one car was missing from the center of the train, and its disap- pearanoe was a mystery. Going back, be found it down a bank. A still more singular accident occurred to a passenger train. It had halted as usual at a little station during the night, but no engine was to be found* in the morning.
