This was startling ?vidence of tho law

And what of ?diss Goggles?
The inquisitive spinster paid dearTy for
feer vigil at the transom. For several
weeks she hovered between life and death.
Poring her spells of delirium she screamed
4B& crnfusedly about daggers and pistols
ad sew made graves, and said she was
' to be buried alive.
she was convalescent the, board
a chang? in her demeanor, j
t.d subdued, and hci'shriU '
vcW jbad lost the sharp ring which added
harshness to her bitter sentences. She did
not interest herself as much in the affaira
of- her neighbors Her spirit cf prying
hvjuisitiveness seemed to be broken, and
more than one of the neighbors remarked.
' Miss Gobies has greatly improved
since her sickness."
Mr. Johnsen? it was noticed, kept si
lent on the subject, but his kindly brown
eyes were forever fixed on the thin, pale
face of the spinster as though he were
trying to read the secret of her reforma
t ic IL
, Miss Goggles' su j den seizure and sub
seqnent dangerous condition had with
1 drawn attention from the deplorable con
*"duct of Mrs. Claypole. and that attractive
lady was permitted to enjoy ber flirtations
fn peace.
Interest was not revived in her again
until the arrest of tho boy burglars, and
then there was a sensation in the Freiing
huysca boarding bouse.
Mr Eladley, who for personal reasons
kept pace with the movements of the
police in tho lace robbery, startled the
boarders at dinner tbe day after the ar
rests by rushing in, excitedly shouting:
"I told you so!" .
"Told us what?" asked Mr. Johnson,
scowling at the agitated clerk.
Why, that she waa no good."
Ahf that's very explicit," sarcasti
cally remarked the old gentleman, caus
ing a titter round the board; "and who
may she be?"
Mrs. Claypole," shrieked Iladlcy al
most fronticpily. as he dropped into bis
Beat and viciously attacked the soup.
This declaration had a curious effect.
Every knifo and fork dropped on the in?
staut, and all eyes were fixed en Hadley,
and ten voicee, "blended with intense curi
osity, exclaimed:
Why, what is tho matterr
This was one of tho supremo moments
in the clerk's life. " Ho dropped his table
spoon, mounted on a chair, and addressed
tho boerders in a half oratorical, hall
hysterical fashion, as follows:
""Ladies and Gentlemen?You all know
me and bow I have sufferod. The thieves
have been caught; a confession has been
made; Mr. and Mrs. Claypole are impli
cated. She was not so much of a flirt as
a thief. The nicely dressed, curly headed
boy who called her mother was tho cap
tain of the gang. He was a peddler. She
tried to spoil my character. The officers
are lookhjj for her. Sho will be hung if
they catch her, and I shall marry my dar
ling Ophelia. And"
Here Hadley broke down, dropped into
a seat ';gain and buried his head in the
soup plate, whUo his frame shook with i
convulsive sobs.
There was intense excitement in the
dining room. Miss Goggles shrieked:
?*I knew it!"
''Henriette!" cried Mr. Johnson, ir
amazement, bending on her a look of earn
est inquiry.
The spinster became confused, but re
peated, hysterically:
I knew itr >
Then broke ont a gabble of conversa
tion, during which tho spinster's signifi
cant remark wasiforgotjten, and tho wholo
story was drawn out piecemeal from Had
ley. Every one seemed delighted with
tho misfortuno which had overtaken tho
audacious blonde and- her bland like hus
band, the only regrets being that they had
left the house before the oScers arrived
to arrest them.
In tho parlor that evening Mr. Johnson
and Miss Goggles sat in earnest conversa
tion long after tho rest of tho boarders
bad retired.
"And that was the cause cf your ill
ness," Mr. Johnson was saying, as ho
moved his- chair a. little nearer the
spinster.
"Yes, I was frightened ont of my wits
by the yonaig man's ferocious threat," sho
replied meekly.
"And you never intend to meddle* with
other people's affairs again?" ho asked
tenderly.
"ITever."
"Henrietta!"
"Mr. Johnson!"
"Yon are the woman rvobeen looking
for all my life. Curiosity, woman's great
est failing, seems entirely crushed out
of you. I am yours; will you bo mine?" |
Miss Goggles did not faint. Sho threw t
hcrsel* into Mr. Johnson's arms, and they
sealed he bethrothal with a kiss.
THE EXI>.
Costly Kind of Success.
To my mind, tho ono sided success of
men who secure wealth at tho expense of
health, character and other culture, who
deliberately smother all their finer sensi
bilities and humane impulses, such suc
cess, I say, is not worth emulating, for it
is evident their own happiness is not
enhanced^ and their - accumulations are
secured at tho expense of their capacity
for enjoying the good things of this life,
and, as many of us believe, to the detri
ment of the "life which is to coma Such
success, though, as goes hand Li hand
with a proper care of one's mental, moral
and physical welfare, as takes others of
sur co-workers right along up with us to
i higher level, and does not strew our
pathway with wrecks which we have
Lielpcd largely to make; such success as
