And so Aaron 1ittle dimissed the
subject. He wa in considerable doulit
and perplexity of mind. Things had
not gone well with him for a year past.
Duli 1 illness and bad debts hail placel
hUaffiirs in rather an unpromisiug
condition. Taking trade as it had
been for the pasd months, he
could not imagine how. with the re
sources at hi- command, his payments
were to ho made.
"I must get more capital," he said to
himself. That V, plain. And with
more capital must come in a partner.
I don't like partnership-?. It is very
dillicu't for two men to work together
harinouiou-dy. You may get entan
jrTcd with a rousrh. It's a risky busi
ness, but I see no other way out of
this trouble. My own capital i too
light for the bnduess I am doing, and
as a measure of safety, more must be
brought in. Lawrei ce is anxious to
join me, and he savs he can command
ten thoumd dollars. 1 do not like
him in all re -peets ; he's too fond of
pleasure, lint I want his money more
than bis ni l in business. He might
remain a silent partner if he cho"-e.
I'll call and see him thU very night,
and we will talk tlie matter over. If
he can bring in ten thousand dollars,
I think that w ill settle "the matter at
once."
With this conclusion, Aaroa Little
returned home, after closing his ware
house for the day. Tea being over, he
made preparations for going out, with
the intention of calling upon Mr.
Lawrence. As he reached his hand
for his great coat, a voice seemed to
sav:
" Tell your wifb. Talk to her
about it."
But he rejected the thought, instant
ly drawing on his coat.
" Where are j-ou going. Aaron?"
asked his w ife, coming forth from the
dining-room.
"Out for a little while," he replied.
I'll be back in half an hour or so."
"Out where?"
Tell her Aaron, tell her all "about
it," said the voice speaking - iu his
mind.

"I am sorry .to hear Vou say that,

"O,. as to that, the amount it will

said Mr. Little. " The parlor does

"Yon are a brave true1 woman,
Betsy," wiid Mr. Little.Tvissinghiswifo,
in tlie glow of a new born feeling of
admiration. ;
" 1 hope that I shall ever e a true
brave wile," returned Mrs. Little,
"willing always to help my husband
either in -saviug or earning, as the
case .may be.; "But let us talk more
about affairs, j leJ me see the trouble
nearer. Must you have ten thousand
dollars right away ?"
4i O, no, its not so had as that. I
was looking ahsad, and seeking to
provide the means for coming pay
ments. I don't want a partner, as far
as the business itself is concerned. I
don't like partnerships, they are alwaj's

danger. It w3 the monej- 'l was after,

' The inontfy would come dearly at

Lawrence for a partner. At least this
is my opinion; r Ilut I am glad to hear
yon say. Aaron, that you are in no

agreed to the sale yet. That would be
pure. to inrike a certain loss. Furni

above half its cost."
'It would be a certain gain, Aaron,
if it saved you from bankruptcy, with
which, as f understand it, you are
threatened."
"I think," paid Aaron, "we could
get on without that. I "like the idea
of your wining into my warehou e
and taking lioison's place. All the
mouey from retail sales passes through
his hands, and he has it in his power
if not honest to rob me seriously. I've
notfe.lt altogether easy in regard to
him of late. Why, I can hardly tell.
I've seen nothing wrong. But if you
take his place, twelve hundred dollars
will be saved certainly.
"But if I have 1113- "house to keep,"
Mrs. Little answered to this, "how
can I help yon at the warehouse? The
first thing in oi-der is to get the house
off 1113' hands."
"Don't you think that Annie could
be induced to come and live with us
for a few months, until we try the new
exiieriment ?" "
"But the money, Aaron ; the mon
ey this furniture would bring? That's
what I'm looking after. You want
money now."
"Very true."
'Then let us hang out the flag.
Half-way measures may ruin every
thing, f know that mother -will not
let Annie leave home, so it is no use to
think of it. The il.-ig, Aaron, the red
Hag! Depend upon it, that's the right
thing to be done. Fifteen or sixteen
hundred dollars in hand will make you
feel like another person, give 30U
courage, confidence and energy."
" "You may be light, Betsy, but I
cannot bear the thought of running
out the 1'ag of which 3-011 talk so
lightby."
"Shall I say coward f Are you afraid
to do what common prudence tells 3011
is right."
"1 was afraid, Betsy, but am no
longer faint-hearted. "With such a
brave little wife as you to stand 05- my
side, I need not fear the world."
"One week from that day, the red
flag was hung out. When the auc
tioneer made "up his accounts, he had
in hand a little over three thousand
dollars, for which a cheek was filled
out to the order of Aaron Little. I t
came into his hands just at the right
moment, and made him feel, to use
hi3 own words, "as easy as an old

took the place of Mr. Hobson, as chief
manager and cash receiver in her husband"-warehouse.
