NANNIE.
r.v l.i rn' QOOp?KYi
( 'll Al'TKIt II.
A hulv dressed in mourning, ac
companied by ?> little girl about four
vent s ohl, was looking at rooms, in a
house, situated in a r.lenseby populat
ed part of Boston.
'I think this room will suit me,'
she said, to the proprietor;as she
ntood in t ho front room, of the second
Hour. Having made arrangements
about tlio terms, she gave her name
nsjMrs. Adams.' and proposed mov
ing in, on the next day.
She had occupied :i pleasant cot
tage in the suburbs; but the present
state of her liiiances. required her to
give up her servant, and procure a
less expensive it bode. She only kept
such furniture as would he needed
for one room, and disposed of the re
mainder. It was with a heavy heart,
she removed to her new home. It was
new to her in every respect. The
close confinement in one room, with
the noisy bits.tle in the street below,
was anything hut pleasant; hud she
soon discovered that the occupants
of the rooms in the tbird story, were
of a (dass, with w hom, she would not
like to conic in contact;
After the arrangement of the room
was completed, she amused the child,
by taking her to the window.
'So many people,' said the little
one.
'Yes darling, so many, and none
arc as lonely as we are.'
( lasping t he child in her arms, she
exclaimed, 'Oh! Nannie, you are the
only object I havcto love! Life would
be intolerable without you."
'Where tire the llowersV1 asked the
child.
'We have none now, but 1 will
make a window garden, in the spring,
and try to keep the room bright for
your sake.'
The only vacant room in the house,
when Mrs. Adams moved in, was the
one adjoining.her own, and when a
few days after, she heard some one
moving in. she was anxious to know,
wdio was to lie so near a neighbor.
Nannie, with childish inquisitiveness,
was not long in Unding her way to
the room door.
'Come in dear,1 said a plcasnnt
voice. The child needed no second
invitation to cuter, and was soon
making the acquaintance of the
stranger.
After awhile, Mrs. Adams called
for ?Nannie," and the lady came, lend
itig her into tho room.
'You sec that I :ini very prompt i n
ret urning your little daughter's call.
madam,1 she .said. "As our rooms are
so in nr, I hope we will become
friends. The child told me you
inline is .Mrs. Adams: I am Mrs
Hinke.'
The ladies were not long in dis
covering, that they were similarly
situated. Each felt that she must
make an exertion to add to her limi
ted income, and euch had chosen her
present residence, to be near a shirt
factory, where"she could obtain work,
which might be done at home. A
mutual sympathy, caused (hem to be
come last friends, und Nannie was
the sunbeam which brightened their
home. ,
?Nannie is: more intelligent, (for
her tige) than any child 1 have ever
.scon. ;i11< 1 she is really beautiful.1
This was the remark of M rs. Blake.
?Who dues she resoluble?" sdie Con
tinued. "Your eyes lire dark, and
her's nre blue us the sky. Does
she resemble her fat herV
?Yes, I think she does,' replied
Mrs. Adams with some hesitation.
Their c|.uict lives continued for
three years; but some months previ
ous, Mrs. Adams' health began to
fail, and it was evident to her friend,
Unit she would be another victim lo
that dread disease?consumption.
It \\;:s in the latter paft of Septem
her, that Mrs. Blake was summoned
to the sick-bed of hor sister, in Liteli
lield Conn. Mrs. Adams' health bad
declined rapidly in the last few weeks,
and she was very much depressed at
the thought of losing her friend.
'The evening before*.Mrs. Blake's
depart uro, after Nannie was asleep,
the two friends sat together. Mrs.
Adams said, 'I understand my dis
ease, and 1 know that 1 have but u
short time to live, 1 may never sec
von again, Nannie is the only tie I
have to earth, and 1 want you when
1 tun gono, to put her. in tlic Orphan
Asylum. Ifyotir sister's beulth con
fiuiies as it is now. you may have to
remain with her,, und 1 could not
leave the child to you. but I want
you to seeWter her. I would like to
loll you something of<jny pas!,]' con
tinued M i s. Aduins. My father was
wealthy, but 1 tnnrrieu against his
wish, aniline never forgave inc. My
husband was kind to.nie, and always
kept me bountifully supplied with
money, hut I never knew what his
occupation was. lie took me to live
in several places, always making me
com fort abl wdpft^ H<) little ?f bis
society, and I was lonely. Ho was
with me most, while we lived in New
London; but even then, he would
leave me for weeks at a time. W hen
1 would remonstrate with him, ho
would call me by sonic endearing
name, and thrown roll of bills to me.
He serined .to think that money was
all that I ftceiled for happiness. We
left NowAjjnnUon to come to Boston.
Here iigatTrT he interested himself for
my comfort; He paid ji year's rent
for the eottfiiro. in advance, but the
lit t i '{'.lit W0 OCCIIpicd ib he Win*
unexpectedly called away. Before
leaving be put a roll of bills into my
baud, which proved to he two thous
and dollars. 1 already had a suffi
cient amount to supply my wants for
some months, so 1 put this into the
Saving's Bank. Two days later, I
received a letter from my husband,
telling me, he had taken passage on
a Norwegian ship, and that was the
last letter I had from him. The ship
was lost in a storm, and only two of |
the crew were saved. I still kept
hoping, that he would return, but
when a year passed, and I had no
tidings of him, 1 gave up all hope. I
think T should have (lied then, had it
not been for Nannie. She would put
her arms around me, and try to com
fort me in her childish way. 1 exert
ed myself for her sake.1
'Von have never let me see your
husband's likeness,' said Mrs. Blake,
'nor the one in Nannie's locket.'
'1 have no objection to your seeing
them now.'
When Mrs. Blake saw them, she
remarked, 'how very unlike they are.'
Their conversation was now alto
gether, about Nannie, ami I hey talk
ed until a late hour.
When Mrs. Blake deputed the
next morning, Mrs. Adams felt that
they 'would never again meet in this
world.

The Undersigned would call the attention cf the Ladies of Orangehurg and Vieiuitv
to bis K E KOSKX K ST< ) V ICS
Every housekeeper feels tin want of something that will Cook the daily food, which
will do away with the excessive beat for the Summer Months, of a Cook Stove. You
wish to ICcoiioiiliHC ! It costs yon less by otic hull' as much to Cook your food with
a Kerosene Stove as it does by a wood lire, and again, where Ladies are compelled to do
so in licit of the cooking themselves to get anything i'u meat, also to avoid the gieat
trouble we have with servants, Kerosene Stoves .ire just the thing, especially for small
Families. They will Cook, boil, Fry, and do anything that a Cook Stove will do. Any
Lady can cook on them all day without soiling her Calls. One trial will convince the
most skeptical.
TO TIIK PUBLIC IN GENKRAL,
Always on hand, Cook Stoves from the best Manufacturers only, Wood and Willow
Ware, Lamps and Crockery, and by far the largest and best stock of 'Tin \V; i re and
House Furnishing Goods in Omngeburu County. All of which will be sold low for
