Long attendance on her imperious mistress had deprived the gentle Par- ker of the power of expressing any sentimont but that of meek acqui oscence, “‘Yos, my lady.” “Wae' go by the first train to-mor- row, 8o be ready.” “Yon, my Iady-" “‘And let some one take two letters to the post for me to-night.” “Yes, my lady. Lady Paulett passed on to the next room, & bedrooom furnished with a magnificent ercction of mahogony and satin damask, large enough to accom- modatetenlittle old ladies like hersclf. There was a woed fire burning, ren. dering dimly visibleancientspider-leg ged tables, a corner cupboard with treasuren of old china and enamel; olaborate works of art in patchwork; a counterpane, cushions, ete,, and some framed and glazed performances, in tent-stich, ‘“‘Eleazer Meeting Re- becea,” “The Prodigal’s Returo,” and “Ruth Gloaning,” with faces and hands of painted kid fadod by age into a ghastly whiteness. g Lady Paulett seated herself in a tall old armehair by the fire while Parker lighted a large silver-branched eandlo stick and drew a table near to her. My writing-desk, Parker, and you may come for the letters in half an hour.” “Yes, my lady,” and whilo Parker hurried off’ to rammage out her mis- tress’s long-forgotten travelling cquip- ments, Lady Paulett in her neat old- fashioned hand indited two short notes, addressed the one to ‘‘Mrs, George Pauloett, Eastholm Hall, Wil- mington, Yorkshire”; the other to *‘R J. %}lneklu(t. Esq., Lincoln’s Inn, London.” She had finished before Parker reappeared, and after sitting thinking for a few minutes drew from her desk a folded paper. It was headed “Memoranda of my Will, 1869,” and contained sundry notes over which she pondered. “There are the lettors, fParker, Let them go at once—but first bring me my dressing-case and jewel case, have be- queathed to them now, before I go. ’Il make no difference, and then I've done with them all forever—ungrate- ful set!” Parker laid a gorgeous inlaid dress- ing-case and a massive brass-bound coffer before her mistress, and depart- ed. Lady Paulett drew the later to her with some difficulty. ‘It is time an old woman like me should be rid of some of those burdens,” she said, smiling grimly as she turned the key and disclosed case upon case of moroc- co and velvet snugly stowed away. She turned them out and laid them all open before her—a brave show in the bright fire-and-candle light. Parker meanwhile stepped noise- lessly to and fro in the background, emptying the big wardrobe of its con- tents and bearing them away to pack in the next room. “Let me see. Dera? She’s the eldest. She was to have my emeralds. She'll take it as a delicate compliment to the nationality of the man of her choice. Bah! He'll pawn them; what else can one expect? Well, well; it doesn’t matter. I always hated them, though they are the handsomest set possess. How well I remember Sir Josiah bringing them home the da; before I was presented at court, and had thought he meant to give me pearls, and had ordered a paie amber dress! I cried about it, but I dared not ask him to change them, or refuse to wear them, and I felt so disgusted. I knew they looked detestable, and I heard one old lady whisper to another, ‘Eggs and spinach,’ and the other sai something about ‘City,’and they both tittered. One. feels those things when one is young. Well, I hope Mrs. O'Shane may be happier in wear- ingthem. O'Shane! Pah! Idare say, though, she’ll be as proud of the name as I was at that time of being Lady Paulett —ah me! “What next, Emily? My diamond brooch. Yes, here it is.” 1t was one of those quaint old-fashioned ones in a silver setting - a large spray of flow- ers and leaves. “‘Pretty little gentle thing, its too grand for her now, but she’ll be a fine young woman some ot these days, They say she’s something. like what I was, but without my high spirits Dear! dear! what a gay young thing T was at her age, and what fine things I expected were to happen to me in my life!—and what a dreary time I have had of it! T must keej robe, came from tke generous hand of the same beneficent old despot; and now, all were melting away before their astonished eyes like summer snow,and Aunt Arabella wasofftospend the rest of her days with the George Pauletts —and wi{yT Because, for- sooth, pretty Dora, inttead of carry- ing out her aunt’s intentions and waiting till, in the fulness of time, Spencer Paulett should return from sea, falk in love with and marry her, has gone and engaged herself to the parish doctor’s long-legged Irish as- sistant, with nothing in the world to offer her but a warm Irish heart, and a decent share of brains under his shock head of red hair, and an income which is modestly described as being mostly on the wrong side of his ac- count book as yet. There was an appalled silence, bro- ken only by the sound of the old lady's crutch tapping off into the dis- tance, Mr. Hilton retired behind his newspaper with the air of a man who had much to say on the subject pre- seutly, Mrs. Hilton sniffed feebly on her sofa, The smallest Hilton but one sat*under the table sucking its thumb and, vaguely conscious of the evil to come, prepared for a wail. In a dis- tant window Dora wept and wept im- peryious to all her Cornelius’s vigorous whispers of consolation, Pierce had withdrawn discretely when the storm broke, through the window into the garden, where he was seen walking up and down in dis- mayed meditation; and Jack, surrep- titiously shaking his fist at the uncon- scious back of hiswould-bebrother-in- law, followed Pierce. Meanwhile, up the staircase and down the corridor went Aunt Arabella briskly enough despite her lameness and her 80 yoars. She had two little rooms in a remote corner of the house, sacred from the intrusion of the most audacious of Hil- tons, She entered the first of them, where a pale, meck young female sat sewing. ‘‘Parker!” “Yes, my lady.” ‘I want my trunks, Find them at my eye on little Emily—wherever am they are all too apt to overlook her. Yes, she shall have the dia- monds, Mr, Paulett gave them to me on my wedding day, and I wore them at the grand ball his company gave when the duke came into the eity to be .made a cheesemonger. I can see myself now in my white Can- ton crape with the French fringes and the myrtle-sprig embroidery, and the Prince of Wales plume in my hair. Josiah said 1 looked quite elegant, only very young (he was sensitive about the difference in our ages, poor man). I remember hearing Lord Henry Murray, the duke's aide-de- camp, ask ‘who the pretty little bride was,” and a minute after he came up and was presented. He led me out, right to the head of the room, into the very set with the duke and the lady mayoress, and ¥ thought Josiah would be so pleased. I could see him fidgeting about the whole time trying to catch sight of us between the peo- ple, and shaking his head and ing signs to me, till I almost forgot the figures—and my dancing used to be greatly admired in those days.” Lady Paulett smiled to horself at the thought, arched her neck, and made a little movement with her wrinkled old fingers as if gracefully bestowing the tips to some imaginary partner, It was vexatious, and Lord Henry was 80 kind and so droll. But Mr, Paulett gave me such a frown as he led e out into the tea room that I hardly knew what he said or how to answer him, Poor, dear Josiah! To think after all he was only afraid that I was laughing too much, and Lord Henry might think me a silly school girl, or that some of the city ladies | might fancy we were quizzing them. I cried all the way home, and that was the end of my first appearance in lucw;y." Lady Paulett laid by the brooch in 1ts case after carefully rubbing it with a silk handkerchief, “Arnhellad my god-daughter, wust have the diamond earrings. 1 got them when I was too happy to care about them, when our mtfi s0On was born. How kind Bir Josiah was ¥ a» 7 7 » Fr MARCH 4 ibbe then! there was nothing he wonld not have dove forme or baby He g them to e for the christening din- ner, and little Jos took notice of them and laughed, when he was brought down to have his health drunk. Such a noble little fellow he looked; dark curly hair and blue eyen liko my doar fathe'r, taking no- tico of overything, and only six weeks old! and that very day weok ho was in his coffin! My poor little son!” The old lady snapped the case and pushed it away from her with a trem- hlinr’ hand. ‘I had just begun to think that after all T might be going to have some happine s in this world, when he was taken trom me. Sir Josiah never seemed to care for anything but his business after that.” “When I came here and saw Jack in his cradle he looked so like my boy, T thought he was given back to me. Dear, good, loving Jack! 1 can never cast him off ~T must speak to Mr. Blackett about that. Now. My dressing case! Ah! (hat must be Mrs. Paulett's; her initials are the same as mine. Sapphire nocklace. Cameo sot. Pearl cross and ear-rings for her three daughters. They've tich enough to have as much jewelry of their own as they want; and the rubies T must kevp for Spencer Pau- lett's wife, when he gota one, *‘Why, that's the eond of my list exoepting Cecilia, and there are Olivia, Marin, Grace, the littlo boys and the baby - all come since T mmfu it out, Well, T dare say T can find some re- membrance of their old auntie for each—not that they’ll ever remember me. Ceci must have my workbox. She has my pretty taste in needle- work” (with a complacent glance at the patchwork and tent-stitch in which the gold threads in Ruth's gleanings and Rebecca’s ear-rings still faintly glimmered). “The new crewell-work isn't so bad. I could have taught hor something, if I hadn't been going away, Parker!” Parker, a moving heap of brocades mlnl furs, gave a faint, inarticulate ro- P y. ‘‘My workbox!” Parker staggered off and returned with a queer little Chinese box with an inlaid landscape, a pagoda with two Celestials wu\king in the skies above it on the lid. “You're dreaming, Parker! When did you find this? T've not seen it these ten years!” Parker scurried away like a fright- ened rabbit, to return this time with a magnificent artiole-—ebony and gold without, quilted satin, pearl and yet more gold within. A turqoise-studded thimble—crystal smelling-bottle in case the fair worker should collapse under her arduous labors—a pearl- framed mirror with which she might refresh herself by occasional glances — curtous implements apparently con. structed to support the largest possi- ble amount of gold chasing, without a point that would pierce or a blade that would cut among them; a re- ceptacle for work, sstin-lined, padded, perfumed and empty, except fora half-made baby’s cap with the rusty needle sticking in it. “‘Who was there to work for when he was gone?” said the poor old lady, looking at the moreel of dis- colorod cambric. ‘*What had I left in the world to care for then! What have Inow,ffor that matters She began, with nervous impatience to open and close some of the cases almost at random, ‘‘I would have put them away forever long, long ago and been a faithful nurse to my husband, itfh he v;onl(} have let me, all through 080 laat w ears of his life; but he nev:fiov:&rx’ng well enough to wish for me—he cared more for his old housekeeper. ‘My lady is youn, and should have her pleasure,” T hear her say once. He had married me for my good looks and was not to be defrauded of his bargain, and I must dress and visit and entertain in our large, dull and splendid house — weary, oh! so weary of it all. He was proud of me in his way and gave me all he promiged, when he asked me to marry him, Much good 1t was to me; father and mother dead—sister Sophia mar- ried and gone--no one left to admire ny splendor or profit by my wealth.” {ere entered Parker, and began rioiselessly to make up the fire and put out her lady's dressing-gown and slippers as a gentle reminder of bed time, ‘‘Ah! it's late, Parker. Well, I've finished. Noj; go and finish your packing and then come. Whatam I'to do with this?” This was the little sham Chinese box —a sadly battered and shabby httle thing. The pivk sarcenet lining was frayed and gone, disclosing the bare wood-and-cotton-wood foundation, In the compartments were odds and ends of miscellaneous rubbish, The pocket and the lid bulged out with yellow scraps of paper, old-fashioned patterns for marking lottors tied with faded ribbon, scraps from newspa- yers. 'There were curiously cut silk winders of cardboard with silk of dim and long-forgotten tints wound in fancy patterns, a half-made hair chain, a string of amber beads; per- vading all a faint sweet smell of roses, ““T should like to have it put in m coffin, my dear old box! No one will care for it, and I cannot have it thrown away, or kept just to please the children. I had better look it over and burn all these poor little treasures.” The yellow papers drop- ped one by oue steadily into the fire —old valentines on huge square sheets of colored paper wonderfully emboss- ed and sealed with tender mottoes in tinted wax, school friends' epistles croesed and recrossed in colored inks, One she kept to the last. “Cornelia Claske! hat a dear sweet creature she was! Dead and gone this many a year. We wero neighbors, and I used to go with her to dancing partles to practice the new steps, Why! here are the very garnet clasps I lent her the night she came in early to put up my hair in the new giraffe bows. We both wanted to look well that night, I remember, How we joked one an- other about Mrs, Lowder’s fine Lon- don cousins who were to be at her house for the party, and I would put on my old purple satinette gown, just to show how little I cared for any one noticing me, (I know very well how 1t became me, though.) After all, Mr., Paulett, the rich London mer- chant, didn’t come, only the sailor cousin, Hugh Lowder.

It wasn't good enough, ho said, yet it was worth all the rest, that dear little orystal and gold flask of attar of roses. How it has scented everything ! She bent over the tiny box, tender- ly touching the shabby old odds and onds, and the rose scent seemed to rise and fill the room. “And Josiah threw it in the fire! said he hated the amell; and would like to have thrown my little box after it. He was angry, poor father's wrist-bands T had heen stitching the very day he was taken ill with the fever that killed him. It was unkind of Josiah, and 1 think he felt ashamed of himself afterward, for he brought my fine new work-box home the very next day. If he had known all T was ory- ing about! Not poor father only. I was thinking of Hugh Lowder. How handsome he looked and how kind, when he came in to say good- by before he went went to sea again!

And T had neither, “God forgive me,” as He has punished me!” She held the little box vightly in her hauds, her whole figure shaking with emo- tion, There was a timid knock on the door; she could not hear it—then another. She rose from her chair, looking strange and bewildered as the door softly opened and Dora stole in, Her poor little face was all flushed and swollen out of its prettiness by hard erying, and her hair in a woe- begone tousle. ‘‘Auntie, I've come to say--please forgive me if I was rude to you this Cor—cor—-nelius and I are not g— going to b engaged any more!' Here came a breakdown and a burat of stormy sobbing. “Tvery one says—I'm s--sacrificing the whole family by my selfishness, so I've given him up, oh! oh! oh!-—for- ever!” 2 Lady Paulett made no sign—only looked with a half terrified air at her niece, her old lips working nervously. “‘But I won’t marry any one else. Nover!” broke out Dora with a sud- den energy. “‘T'll do anything else I can to please you, auntie. I can wait and wait, and perhaps, he says, if some day he comes back rich enough to please you L all because ho found mo crying over | , evening; and please don't leave us! H OUSES A TN D OTS!
