BY JESSIE MAY. “George! I want a little money this morn ing, aid clean white handk: ttle Mre. Clinton as she tucked a rehiet into her husband’s pocket, handed him his hat, and came and set- tled his collar to her satisfaction Previous to a going down town one morning after break- fast. ‘* More money! And what new flumadiddle is wanted now?” asked the bus! id, drawing forth his portmonnaie, and trying to assume a playfully savage look. “Oh, you needn’t try to frighten me into re- ducing the demand I was about to make to the very lowest terms I can manage witb; I am not ging to draw very heavily upon your bank this time; I only want a couple of dollars; and the dumadiddles are very necessary to the com- fort and appearance of your honorable self.” And the little chucked his whiskered chin go saucily, and smiled 80 miscbievously, that his stern features relaxed from their ae- sumed gravity, and he resumed his wonted bearing of quiet gentleness as he laid a bank bill upon the table, and snatching a good-by kiss, hurried from the room. _ Ob George! George!” called his wife, run- ning after bim into the hall, ‘ please let me have just what I asked for, it will not be con- venient to make change, I know; I only want two dollars; can’t you let me have it?”” “Yes, but I thought you might find use fur the other three, so I gave you a five; you can get it changed aud keep the rest till You want 7 “Bat Lam not goin, ing; Lwant to pay she has been doing fi out shopping this morn- rs. Grey for the sewing h for he brought home & pair of shirts last n nd said she would like the pay now if convenient; I did not have enough mouey by me but told her to call this morning for it. { know she needs it. “Bat you don’t give her two dollars for making a pair of shirts, L hope! why, bless me child that is throwin, money away!’’ “That is what she as 3; I never gave that much before—but then I would not dispute her price, of course. I told her that it was more ‘than I was accustomed to give, and she said that she wished she could afford to do it for any less, but she really could not.’’ *“ Nonsense! ‘not afford to’ means not get rich by it { suppose; the trouble with these laboring peopie is they want to lay up money, when they ought only to expect a good living ; why, Lizzie, we cannot live poh wets such prices for our work; why, with our shopwork now we set our own prices, and our hands have to abide by them; a Pretty pass things would come to if we let every upstart tailoress or seamstress set her own price upon her work ! Why we get all the shirts made We can sell, made for twenty-five cents apiece. “Ob, but how are they made George? You kuow those that you had from the shop before we were married they were just ran together in the slightest manner. I bad opening seams to close. button-holes to work over, and but- tons to sew on, till Ido believe I just about made those things over anew befora the cloth wore out, and, besides you furnished ready- made bosoms, and that ‘makes a great differ- ence; it is so close work and very trying to the eyes to stitch a shirt bosom. Dear me, 1 had rather be whipped than to do such work any how, and if Mrs. Grey does charge rather high prices 1’m sure I would rather ay her than uodertake the task myself; and ‘ie sews 80 neatly, too; [ know she took pains with the work ; every stitch is set just as it should be.”” “ Well, here are two dollars, but Lizzie too meh to pay. [ would pot employ her any more; there are others who will work cheaper, and if she cannot affurd to, [ fraid she will bave to moderate her desir. little, or she will bot get much work at such prices.”’ Mrs. Clinton stood musing for a few mo- ments aiter the door was closed upon her hus- baud. She slipped the two one dollar bills through bor fingers, folled them up together, then opened them, and spread them out again, refolded them separately, and at last took out her purse and emptying out the change t- ed it over and soliloquizing all the while: could make out a dollar and a half, and that’s all f ought to give I suppose, all that seam- stresses generally ask; then I will have this other bill, and some change besides to show George, aud be will give me credit for more business tact than he supposed me capable of. Yes, | know she asks too much. I will just let ber see that [ know what a thing is worth myself. I must try and be more saving. I &um too lavish in my expenditures I know. 1 wonder what George meant by sayiog that we could not live and pay such prices. Ub dear! 1 am afraid [ am cailing on him too much for money to buy things with, and pay servants, and. and, [ hard!y know what I do with it all, but I do use a good deal in one way aud an- other. But he talks of enlarging his business, and { board him tell bis Partner the other day that they were making larger Profits than an. other firm in the city. Ob dear! well, I don’t know mach about such things, but I don’t mean to throw away money after this. I will begin this very morning to economize There ! that must be her ring at so early an hour, no’ I must be dignified!” and Mrs. Ciintoa went into the parlor to await her visitor. “< It's Mrs. Gray, shall I show her in?” said Biddy, putting her head in at the parlor door, beforeghe answered the bell, “or shail I tell her you are engaged ?”” “Show ber in Biddy. I told her to eall. Good vegas 4 Mrs.Gray! You are taking an early walk.”’ Mrs. Gray seated herself with the air of one who is weary, yet cannot stay to rest, she was slightly embarrassed for she was in haste to be on ber homeward way, yet she felt a little del- feacy about naming the subject of her call. Sbe boped Mrs. Clinton would speak of it first, and felt relieved when after a few remarks upon the weather and kind inquiries after the health of her family, the lady drew forth her parse, and smiling very sweetly, said : “[ suppose you would like the pay for your work, Mrs Gray, I thiok I can make it out this morning. Vin speke last evening of ask- ing two dollars; it is too much, Mrs. Grey— more than you can expect for shirt-making; more than I ever gave before; [ believe a dui- lar aad a balfis the most I ever gave for m king @ set of shirts.” Mrs. Clinton was tr Z to look very dignified. She wore a enbenlls, and strove to speak mly, but it was too much for ber, with those clear, rafal eyee — > se her, as if reading an unjust sen- tence in her countenance; the muscles around ber moath would not be starched intostiffness. Her cheeks flushed, and her eye fell, and her own heart reproached her for an actof meanness She saw herself haggling with a poor wom over a half a dollar—she, who thought nothing of paying five dollars for a trifing articte of dress, or of ing out twice that sum in s resent fur a friend. She wished bad not hana but now that she had, she knew not bow to stop, so she sat still, rolling up the half dollar in its accompanying bill, and fastening ber purse upon the remainder of its contents and ail the while seif-justification whi to ber conscience: “It is the principle of the thing. [t won't do to let these laboring peo ple set their own prices, they will get too un- reasonable—what one gets another will expect —it won't do—they must be held down, we know what is fair, what they can live 6m, we must give too; give them an inch and they will take an ell—to be sure you don't care for fifty cents—it is the principle of ¢ bing.’’ “Mrs. ton, { have been trying to think what is the least I really afford to take fur the work I have done for you, and I wish you could kaow how sincere I am in the belief that my price is 2 good fair one; at least low enough 1 am sure you would think were you wy place.
