When Harry Reucliffe married Co- quette Carse it had been a gen- ne love-maich. Coquette was one of ¢ family of dewy-eyed, rose-lipped whose taces were their fort events, other fortunes And the othe! 4 the udkerchiefs, und fofrom the litth mil the corner. ‘Yo be sure, Harry was not rich, but it was oniy a question of time, argued the five sisters, how soon he should be famous as MeisSonier, rich as Croesus. An artist like him was sure to succeed. “And what fun it would be to visit Coquette when she should be rich and famous!” cried the five, in chorus. “I haven't much faith in artists,” Old Colonel Carson said, dubiously. «But Coquette liked the fellow, so what could I say?” So Harry carried the village beauty off to his studio at the top of the Wycherly Building, where the walls were painted terra-cotta color, the doors draped with gorgeous Oriental stuffs, and every corner filled with picturesque tables, high-shouldered Japanese vases, and quaint folding screens. “How do you like it, darling?” he cried, exultantly. “It’s beautiful,’ Coquetie answered, with a shy sidelong, glance at the dum- my, which, dressed in “Marie Antoin- ette’”’ costunic, leaned up against the corner of the wall, as if “Marie Antoi- nette” had had too much to drink. “But i thought, Harry, it was a svite.” “So it is!” cried the young artist, pulling aside a sage-green drapery, with dadoes of Pompeian-red plush. “And here's the bed-room.”’ should call it an alcove, Harry “Well, it’s plenty big enough to sleep in; and here,”’ opening the door of a tiny,. three-cornered nook, “‘is a dressing-room. What could one want more, I should like to know?” Coquette tried to smile. The old house at home had been so roomy, so spacious! And _ here. in this cramped- up corner, she felt as if she could scarce- ly breathe. “Haye you many orders, Harry?” said she, glancing around at the pict- ures in various stages of completion that lined the studio walls. “Well, no—not many yet. Not any, in fact,” he added, hing and color- ing. But, of course, Ishall have plen one of these days’) A man has to work’ his way up, you know.” “But, Hay “Well?” “How do you live?” “Eh?” he questioned, blandly. “Those beautiful Jacquiminot roses on the table, Harry, and the hot-house apricots and nectarines in the gilded basket, and the wicker-chair tied with pink ribbons—surely all those things must be expensive?” He laughed. “They would be, if 1 had paid for ‘em,” said he, “but I haven't.” “Oh, Harry!” i “It’s time rh,” he said, careless- ly. “Those fellows always send in their bills long before one wants ‘om. Nobody pays ready. money for such things; and 1 you would be pleased with them. “So I am, dear,” cried Coquette, over- whelmed with a sense of her own in- gratitude; “and it was so good of you to think of them. But—but we are not rich people—and papa always:says that economy is better than wealth—and since you really have no orders as yet, don’t you think we ought to be very careful of how we nd our money? And, Harry—I have been brougat up to manage all the houschold affairs— if you would only trust me with the purse! “So I will, sweetheart,” said Harry, ” gehog bottle-green, the gyas- | with grie d eyes.

And, as if to crown their troubles, poor young Radciitte fell ill of a fever, tritis looked Coquette grimly in the face. Bat the girl was not one easily to be conquered. While she sat by Harry's side, counting the hours between his draughts of medicine, she sewed dili- gently for a dressmaker a street or so away. When the good housekeeper came in for afew minutes, every evening, to give her a chance to get a little fresh air, she took her work home, and scoured the neighborhood for a place where she could bu: grapes and pears, at something less than ruimous prices, to tempt her husband's capricious appe- tite. And one evening, when she returned with an especially tine bugceh of ‘Tokay grapes, which she bad bought at a bar- gui, she found him tossing restlessly toand fro on his pillow, with fresh fever burning on his cheeks. “A letter from Aunt Labitha, Co- quette!” he cried. ‘She is coming to make us avisit.

And then there ensued a long coun- cil, whispered and intent. “Jones will help us,” 1 Harry, “aud De Kaye, and Courtenay. And Sprigging is the best fellow in the world!” “And Madam Piombreri and ever one of the sewing-girls will lend a hand, I am sure,” said Coquette. ‘Oh, Harry, I am so giad you are sufliciently recov- ered for us to try this bold experiment!” All the next day a pleasant confusion signed in the studio. igging, a marime painter of no mean pretensions, lugged in a half- finished picture of “Moonlight on the Grand Canal at Venice,” and establish- ed it on his friend’s easel; De Kaye stood on step-ladders, at the risk of his life. to hang a number of his pretty lit- ue fruit and flower glimpses so that the tarra-cotta coiored walls should be hidden; and Launcelot Courtenay him- nided in their arrangement; while nousekeeper, assisted by two able- bodied men, brought in the upright pianowhi belonged to Courtenay’s ether with a pile of marble owned by bronze statuettes cury and Psyche.

Something with a motive.” “La!” exclaimed Aunt Tabby, under her breath. ‘Til think it over, and let you know,” said Radcliffe, languidly. “At present I've got as much as I can do.”? Which was unfortunately an indubit- able fact, as our poor young hero was not yet strong enough to handle a mail- stick. The dealer—no other than De Kaye in masquerade—retreated grumbling. “Aunt Tabby’s eyes scintillated joy- fully. “Harry,” she cried, ‘you're on the high road to fortune! You certainly are!” “hope so, aunt,” said the young man, wearily. Two other customers, apparently all eagerness, arrived during the course of the evening. One carried off the picture of a basket of luscious peaches upturned in a nest of hay; the other made a conditional bargain for a bunch of daisies in « slender green vase, against . background of wine-colored draperies. A delicate little supper of lobster cro- quettes. chocolate, and salad, was serv- ed ateigat, and Aunt Tabby went to bed rejoicing in the luxurious apart-- ment, with a stained-glass window and Florentine hangings, which Mr. De Kaye had vacated specially on her ac- count. - “Why don’t everybody turn artist?”’ she said, to herself. t's a business Where one coin money. vonderfully, and test woman I ~ Ol expressiy to served Harry; ‘but it order for him.” r three 3 in Aunt Tabitha less soul, and in one place than wind.

Orders really began to come in after that Everything went well.” ‘One thing is very certain,’ said Harry, “I never snould have amount- ed to anything without you, Coquette.” And he checked her remonstrance with a kiss. _——$—$<— + Ten Times one is Ten.

It is calle ed The King’s Daughters,” and the object is to help one’s self and others to correct faults or to do kindnesses. It is a society of tens, every ten forming a Chapter. Each Chapter has a president, who conducts the meetings, and any member can start another Chapter. Each Chapter selects its own object, and meets st specified times to consult and re; its For instance, we decided in ours that we would try notto aay disagreeable things about people; and when we met, we read whatever we thought would help us to correct this fault, and if any one any suggestions to make about the mansgement of the tens, she made it then. A Chapter often has a secretai and treasurer, if its object requires suc: officers. After a while, if the tens wish, they can break up and form new ones. The motto of the Society is “In His Name,” and there 1s a badge of narrow purple ribbon and a small silver cross engraved with L HN. i Society started in New York, where I live, and I should be very glad to teil any of your girls more about it, if they care to hear.

Edgerton, Kan., Jan. 14th, 1886. I was afilicted with rheumatism for eight years, and it had become chronic in its worst form, and after using one bottle of Athlophoros I have not felt any symptom of it forsix months. It done more than that; my wife was afflicted with neuralgia for twelve years—had an attack every month. After taking one bottle, six months ago, has only felt it once or twice since J.C. Doome. Mrs. Thos. McCue, Sanford Block, corner 8th and Main streets, Dubuque, Iowa, says: “Tamstill well. Last winter was a very severe and cold one for me, but I did not have any earn of the rheumatism.

The result of its use was miraculous; the swelling wan soon re- duced, the pain subdued, and she was again upeand around and has not been troubled since.
