How the Fraternity in London De- célve the Charitable, London Telegraph The reader may be surprised to learn that it is not in all cases that bona-fide cripples, and thoso who are unmistakably afflicted and who im- plore chatity, are really eutitled to commiseration and relief. Tt is quite within the verge of possibility that they have rendered themselvesobjects of compassion deliberately and with & purpose. At & notorious lodging-house n the neighborhood of Drury Lane he manager pointed out to me two such characters. The one was a wrotched looking woman of past mid- dloage, who was very poorly though tidily dressed, and who, while 1 was talking with the man in the passage, passed through, carrying in her hand a nice piece of rump steak and a small canliflower. “‘That's; how she does it,” said Mr. Manager, as the woman, who was too weak to walk well, held on the balusters with her disengaged hand while she descended the steps that led down into- the cellar; ““that and a pint of stout will make her a decent dinner. She can afford it, and if she couldn’t she would be dead in a month.” On my requesting an ex- planation of this enigmatical speech, the manager continued: “I can't give you all the particulars, because what she doses herself with is a secret. But dose herself she does. She remains indours till after the gas is lit, and an hour or so before she starts she takes her dose, whatever it is, and it makes her that horrible ill that ’pon my soul it's a wonder how she finds pluck to continue at the game. Her face goes ghastly and pinched, and she goes black under the eyes, and she'’s so weak that there's no gammon about her hand shaking as she leans on her stick. She toddles out every eveniag, and you may find her afterward stand. ing just off the pavement with a paper pinned to her breast, on whichis writ, ‘Tam very ill and in deep distress.’ She doesn’t say a word, I am totd, or even hold out her hand. She hasn't any need to. I've known her to go out from here at 6 o’clock, and she'd been going it 80 the night betore that she's fairly stumped and been glad to borrow two-pence half-penny of me for a half-quartern of gin to start her. Well, sir, 1've known her to go out at. 6 and be home before 10 with a mat- ter of eight or nine shillings all in coppers. Does the stuft she takes do any harm? It makes her thin, and she has such pains inside her that sometimes all the drink she can swal- low doesn’t make her forget 'em. But it is an out-and-out game while 1t lasts, and plenty of 'em that lodge here would give Kur something hand- some if she would put 'em up to what her ‘dose’ is. Do I think they would? I'm sure of it. Why, take notice of that chap out there in the yard, wash- ing his shirt. You sve his arm?’ I looked at the individual indicated, whose braces crossed his naked should- ers, and I saw at once that his right arm was frightfully attenuated —seem- ingly mere skin and bone, while the corresponding limb was well nourished and plump. “There is no pretense there,” I remarked; “‘the poor fellow has a withered arm.” Mr. Manager grinned. “I don't say he's a liar,” said he, “bat he brags that he did it himself on purpose, that he might have the advantage of being a cripple. He's been a soldier, and what he says is ~between friendsand in confidence, you know—that wanting to get out of the service, and not caring to work for a lving, he gave himself a bang on the elbow with a hammer. It passed a8 an accident, he had a few months 1n the infirmary, and came out of the army with an allowance of sixteen ence a day for eighteen months, and Kia arm has been gradually wasting to what you see it now, Does he show it to excite compassion? Rather. He can use it a bit, and he can play on his fiddle with it about the streets, showing it all bare up to the sheulder, But he doesn’t make much. Not more than four or four and sixpence a day.” ‘“‘But that is much more than the average hard-working laborer earns,” I remarked. *The hard-work- ing laborer?’ returned Mr. Manager, with undisguised contempt; “I1l fiud you dozens of fellows about here who haven't got the advantage of being crippled, who'd be sorry to earn as little as a hard-working laborer.” And there is no doubt that there might be found scores of men and women, disabled, who make such an excellent living by displaying thuir infirmities that they would decidedly decline to be made sound, were such a miracle possible. T can speak posi- tively as regards blind men who are street-beggars, Iidding them in wretched homes, with a drunken wife, and grown-up, lazy chlldren, living in clover on - the' money bestowed on their sightless parent during the day, I have interested in their favor those who, had they been willing, would at once have placed them in a comfortable asylum where for the re- mainder ot their 'wes they would have been well fed and lodged and taught s trade as ‘vell. But in at o6dd years, and very fow of his ‘' got into his “r” box. This bright, sunshing morning he came in and greeted his h‘llnw&y,\os with a pleas- ant “Good morning.” The boys no ticed his hand trembled somewhat,and that his voice was husky and uncer. tain, but they paid ne partjeular at tention to these things; the old man had been acting wacher stangoly for the lust few days, and they attributed it toa gradually weakening constitu tion. He stood at his case for almost an hour throwing in, and had distri buted nearly all his matter, when of a sudden his composing stick fell from his hand to the floor, and he himself tottered and would have fallen had not the boys sprung to his side and supported him to a chair in front of the fire. His hesd dropped forward on his breast, and his breathing be- came more and more rapid. The pressman ran for a glass of water, and returning held it to his lips. As the water touched his parched tongue a spasm of pain shot across his face, and his frame was convulsed with agony. With an effort which seemed almost suporhuman he dashed the glass upon the tlor, and it was splintered 1nto a thousand pieces. Tnis effort soemed to arouse him somewhat, and he gaz- ed about him with & bewildered stare, “‘Boys,” he said; ‘“boys, are the cases all full?” ‘‘His mind wanders,” whispered the foreman, in a low voice, and then he said aloud, as he bent over the old man: ‘‘Yes, Dick, old fellow, everything is thrown in.” “Tha'ts r:ght, that's right,” ox-. claimed the teeble old man, *‘there is nothing like having the galleys and stones all cleared off,” and he seemod to brighten up considerably, and made an etfort to stir the fire with a warped sidvsuck, which the boys used asa poker. ‘‘I've run short of em quads, boys, and haven't emough to space out this poetry,” he said, and his faltering tin- elng over the case insearch of the requisite meta . *I'hat’s all nght, Dick, we'll throw in some quoins and that will bring it all right,” said one of the boys in a sympathetic voice. *‘Ah, Charley,” said the old man, ‘‘that reminds me of the old Casey- ville Herald days, when we used to drop out a dead ‘ad.’ and lock up the | | planer n the forms to fill out witn, Kat times, those,” he continued; ‘‘they wil never come back to the old man,” and he leaned his head on both hands and swayed to and fro, 1he boys gathered around him more closely vo prevent his talling, Oue of the boys, in coming to the old wau’s side, stumbling over a chase which waus leaning against the com- posing stand, ana it fell with a loud crash, ‘Lhe old man sprang to his feet, and it was all the boys could do 1o restrain hun. ““You've pied the form,” he shouted, ‘‘and it 18 time to &0 to press. What shall we do, what shall we do?” “Siv down, Dick, old fellow; it's nothing but an empty chase,” said the foremen, and he gently placed the old gentlewen in'the chair, “‘You can’t deceive me, Mac,” and the tears atood in the veteran’s eyes, “The form is pied, and we ought to have been to press an hour ago. The folivs are all wrong, Mac. Nee, here 18 page 102, backing up page 27,” and the old man snatched 'a proof from tho revise hook, and begau folding it in a helpless manner. “Ii's all wrong, but it 18 too late,” he gasped. “‘The press waits.” Here his head sank again upon his breast, and his breathing was thick and fast. “Yes, least three instances they declined to avail themselves of the opportunity, Two of them excused themselves on the plea that they could 1.t bear to live among strangers, bu: the third bluntly told me that, thouy' he was blind, he was not exactly a iuol, and it wasn't very likely that he was going to be caged up for the sake of his food and bed, when he could ‘‘nake"” soven shillings in a short day going sbout, with his dog, and enjoy his pipe and his glass every evening, —_— Never Too Late to Mend, Thos, J, Arden, William street, Fast Buffalo, wiites; “Your SpriNg Brossow has worked on me splendid. I had no ap- petite; used to sleep badly and get up in the morning unrefreshed; my breath was very offensive and I suffered” from seyere headache; singe using your Spring Blog- som all these symptoms have vanished, and I feel quite well.” Price 50 cents, trial bottles 10 cents, mar?-dlw The Aged Typo. Denver Intro-Ocean, It is remarkable how the habits of lifo cling to a person even during his last moments, ~The boy in The Inter- Ocean offico hardly expected to find the old man at his case when they cume to work in the morning, for when he had gone home the night before they Lad noticed his steps were very foeble, For over forty years he had a case; first on a metropolitan daily, then on a little eountry weekly, and then on a religious monthly,” His haud was steady as yet, despite his 60 boys lock up the forms and look out— look out for loose spaces.” The boys stood silently around the old compositor, and the scene was an impressive one in the extreme. *‘The pages are all proved, eyery- thing all right,” he murmured in broken accents. ‘‘Now, then, care- ful, boys; lift off the forms, and clean off the stones, and before, before you start up the press, let us—let us—jeff for the drinks,” He fell with a heavy thud to the floor, and the foreman, with the aid of the pressman, lifted him up and laid him " tenderly on a pile of mailbags under the cutter, and one by one the boys returned tu their cases and left him to—sober up. —— Balm in Gilead, There is balm in_Gilead to heal each gaping wound; In THoMAS' Evkciric Orv, the remedy is found, Forinternal and for outward use, you fieely may apply it; ¥or all pain aud inflammation, you should not fail to try it, It only costs a trifle, 'tis worth its weight ingold, And by every dealer in theland this remedy fs sold, Mar.7d.1w Dotroit Free Pross ‘‘Lemme see,” said the old man musing with his chin on the top of his cane and speaking in the shrill falsetto yoice of age, ‘‘it must be forty-seven years since Ann Maria diud’,' yet I can remember the ver gown she wore and the color of the long cyrls that hung down over her shoulders and the red on her cheeks that was like a winter apple! Dear we! she's never faded a mite in all them years, but just sits there a lookin’ at me, as she did when I brought her home. You see there was a kind of romance tew it, and I've offen and offen thought that if I had the power and could rite it out it would read beautifuller thau a novel; the fact was that Ann Maria had another beau, but that ain’t no wonder, for she was the smartest and prettiest and best girl in the hull country-side; but what I mean, she had favored him evex so little afore I come around and began keepin’ her company. Folks kind of coupled their names together, and some of 'em, to bother me, hinted that she cared & heap for him. Why, you'd orter tew hev seen him! He was slim and fine as a lady, and wore gaiter shoes and had holler eyes, as if he'd never had quite enuff to eat. Ann Maria care for hun! Why, the girl had sense and knew the difference atween a feller as straight as a saplin with & color like new mahogany an such a melancholy-lookin’ specimen as that. Besides, I had a mortgage on the old homestead and Ann Maria's father owed me money, bis I did right by them, I told her ef she married me I'd deed the whole thing back to her, and I did. Well, we was married, and we made as purty a couple as you ' | ever saw in your life. Ann Maria had 4 settin’ out of china and linen, and I ,-rn\‘uh'd the house, and folks sad I had the best wifo a man ever had in the world, and T'd get everything just a8 T wanted it, and #'posed it would always bo so; but from the day we were married my wife failed in health ~‘that mebbe all the time she loved A woman's heart, I've found out, is a queer thing, and love goes where it ie sent; but if she did and married me from a mistaken sense of duty, why all I've got to say is T've been pun- ished, too, forI loved her. Perhaps I nover felt it as much as I did when 1 saw her lying white and peaceful in her chintz gown, with the violet on it, and something around her neck that I never see beforo—a little cheay locket with some hair in it that wasn’t mine. Then I mistrusted that her heart had broke, and 1 said_solemnly a8 I kissed her good-by: ‘My dear, I'll never have a wife but you if 1 live the fourscore year and ten!' and 1 never have, and I think mebbe she will see that I loved her truly and for- give me at last.” —_— Shrowdness and Ability.
