MEU'.S ADVICE.
It wns lie Jay after tho party, and can
ny i1y be oDy more utterly wretched? I
mean, of course, to tho peoplo who hiwo
jriven the party especially when, like
my undo aud anut, they aro of qniot
going hiilita and moderate moans, and
mil at lut RacHtsducco n tho dining-room
and Lave sappor in tho biggest bed
room. It wan the day after tho party, and
very individual in thehonsowas rainera
blo. The days before tho party had not
been remarkable for comfort, but they
at leant had been tinced with tho radi
ance of hope and bright anticipation,
whilo now nothing remained but "dregs
and bitterness," aud to clear away and
get the houHO into order again. This
would havo Bocmod rather a dreary task
In any circumstances, I daro say; but it
wus greatly aggravated by the fact that
we wore all in very low spirits, or to put
it honestly, in dreadfully bad tempers,
Laving each and all a special grievance
of our own.
My unolo's - household consisted of
himself and 'my aunt, Mr. and Mrs.
Gilboo, thoir two sons, Christopher and
Peter, thoir two daughters, Lottie and
Sophy, and myself, Meg Merton, the or
phan'daughter of my aunt's only sister.
My mother had died whon I was eight
years old, and my father, whose habits
were by no means of a domestic kind,
sent mo to school, and allowed mo to
spend all my holidays at my aunt's; and
when he died and my school days were
ver, my tomporary homo became a per
manent one. This came to pass quite
naturally, and was taken as a matter of
course by my kind hearted cousins; and
Aunt Charlotte, who had nover seemed
to BtippoBe that she was conferring any
particular favor upon mo by giving mo
a happy home among them all. But I
appreciated it. and endeavored to prove
my gratitude in overy v y possible. I
was older than Lottie and Sophy and
left school beforo they did, and I became
very nsoful in tho houso. Aunt Char
lotto was of a nervous, timid nature, and
as T happened to be self-possessed and
cool and docidod she soon came to rely
entirely on my judgment and energy,
aud in a year or two I was housekeeper-in-chief,
and my advice was asked and
pretty generally taken on matters both
email" and gtoat indeed, "Meg's advice"
becamo proverbial in tho household.
Naturally I grew a little dictatorial, for
I often wondered what thoy could have
dono without mo. Chris was the only
one I could not manage.
"Bnliy the ouer as much as yon
like," he would sny, "but you shull never
bully me;" and somehow or other I never
felt inclined to try.
"Tifla" occurred amongst us now and
then; but, on the whole, wo wore a very
hnppy fumily until the day after tho
party, whcn,ns I havo suid, we were
each and all miserable. My unole was
confined to his room with a bilious attack,
whero he lay groaning and anathema
tizing "that champagne." My aunt
lookod very haggard when she first came
down in tho morning, and said her head
ached badly; and her appearance did not
brighten as she and I investigated tho
state of tho crockery, ct antra.
"I shall never give a party again," she
said quietly, but it was tho quietness of
despair, "Nine champagne glasses brok
en, two sherries, and three of the best
china plates, and a great stain on the
drawing room carpet! We might havo
been entertaining a set of barbarians!"
Cbriitophor aud Peter, usually the
most affcotionato of brothers, were now
not on speaking terms with each other,
as my aunt and I discovered at breakfast
time; and instead of going to business
togethor, Tetor lingered until Chris had
gone, and then started about five min
utes afterwards. Tho unfriendliness
arose, as I well know, became of a
stylish, disagreeable London belle.whom
somb friends of onrs had brought with
thorn to tho party, and who had flirted
desperately but with maddening im
partiality, with both my doluded cous
ins. Hence their coldness toward each
other this morning. As for Lottie and
Sophy I wiahed, before the day was out,
that thoy wore not on speaking terms,
for they were nagging at each other till
the time, and finished just before dinner
with a downright spiteful quarrel; and
aunt Charlotte cried. Their grievance
was about two brothers, Tom and Harry
Nowill; for Lottie liked Harry best and
Sophy liked Tom; and with the usual
oontrariness of mankind, Harry was des
perately in love with Sophy, and Tom
with Lottie; so it was usual, after every
merry-making we might have, for Lottie
and Sophy to fall out about them. I
fult vexed with everybody; but I think I
was quite justified in being bo, for they
would all persist in believing or saying
that they believed that I was in love
with ridiculous John Howarth, just be
cause he happened to be in love with me
and took care that every one sliould
know he was, too! I did think some of
them at least might have had more sense.
And now this fiuo London belle had ap
peared on the scene oh, I felt tempted
to break another best china plate and all
the remaining cherry glass? as I
thought about it! And if aunt had only
known the state of mind I was in, she
would never have trusted me to wash
them up and pnt tliera away. Even our
Newfoundland dog scemad to share the
general dissatisfaction, and kept coming
from his kennel as far as his chain would
permit, and uttering long and dismal
howls. The cook said that it was the
sign of a death ; but the housemaid per
sisted that i; foretold a wedding. I did
not feel as if I cared much which it was
or what happened only I think I felt
more inclined for a f nneral than a wed
ding, especially if the wedding entailed
breakfast and another party.
My aunt and I hal been np as early as
usual thin morniiiK wo had too mufh
to do to bo ablu to lie in bod. Chria aud
Peter of conrso wanted their breakfast
at the nsual hour, and their luncheons,
which they always took with them and
ato in a htilo buck room at the oflice
put up; and then, whon thoy hadhUrtcd
for business, we commenced our dismal
investigations through tho hom-e. Wo
always dined at six o'clock, und it was
nearly that hour beforo we had succeed
ed in reducing tho houso to anything
liko order. Then Lottie and Sophy had
thoir quarrel, in tho midst of which
Chris and Poter arrived, and we went to
dinner.
Chris folded his arras and put on a
dodged and determined look as he took
his I'luco at the table,
"I breakfasted off cold fowl," ho said,
gWiuily "J lunched off cold fowl-I
rcf:o to diuo off it."
M v mint grew tearful Again.
"This is not cold fowl," she answered,
"it it turkey, and you might eat it. Cold
beef will keep a any or two fowls and
turkeys, villi sauce over them, will not.
Hut" turning to r.'.o rocignedly "ring
for the beef to be brought in, Meg; we
havo hud enough unpleasantness for one
day."
"How is it thero is a wholo turkey
left?" inquired Chris, somewhat mollified
as the beef appeared.
"It was Meg's fanlt," replied Aunt
Charlotte. "Sho put it on that dark
shelf behind the cellar door, and I found
it there this morning quite forgotten.
Hut I wonder, Meg, that yon did not no
tice there were only two turkeys at sup
per; this would have been eaten if it had
been there."
"I did not have any snpper," I said,
for I thought there would not be room."
"That is moroly an exonso," . nterposed
Lottie; "yon were spooning with John
Howarth in the conservatory all supper
time."
I mount to look defiiut.but I may havo
looked guilty.
"Did he propose to yon?" asked Sophy,
staring at me.
"I will put a stop to this nonsense
about John Howarth," I said, determin
edly. "You Bhall all know exactly how
the caso stands and then thoro will bono
excuso for any further display of stale
wit at our expense. As Sophy supposes,
Mr. Howarth did propose to me lost
night."
"Oh, Chris," interrupted Lottie, "how
conld you hit my cat in such a savage
way? Come hero Tin poor pussy."
"You should teach your cat not to
stick his claws into one's legs at dinner
time," retorted Chris; "then ho wouldn't
get hit."
"Ho was not touching youl" returned
Lottio, warmly. "Ho was bogging quite
inoffensively.'
"Ho was sticking? his claws into my
leg," reitorated Chris, with quiet and
aggravating obstinacy.
"Now don't yon two begin quar
relling "said Sophy, impatiently, "but
let Meg tell us about John Howarth. I
have often read about proposals in tales
but I have never heard of a real bona
lido one described. Do tell us overy
word he said, Meg."
"Did ho go down upon his knees?"
uskod Chris. "For if he did I wish I had
been there to see him."
"I shall not tell you whother he went
down on his knoes or not," I answered,
calmly, "nor shall I tell you what he
said. "But," 1 added, with sentimental
meditation, "ho said sorao vory nice
things indeed to me nbor you than
could put together, Chris, if you triod
for a hundred years."
"I can fissure you I am not going to
try, even for a miuuto," answered Chris,
giving rae a most savago look.
My aunt suddonly burst into tears.
"This is the finishing blow," she said,
"Meg going to be married! I will
never give another party as long ns I
live! It was ugaiuBt my better judg
ment that I yielded this time. I did it
to please you all, and this is the result
furniture ruined, eatables wasted,
your lather ill, you all quarrelling like
this, and Meg going to bo marriei! No,
never another party in this house 1"
'What not evon when Meg mar
rios John Howarth?" sneered Chris.
"No, not even thon," replied aunt, re
doubling her sobs.
"Well, don't cry, auntio," I inter
posed, "for I nm not going to marry
him. I gave him a very decided 'No.' "
Chris here gave a quick, covert glanoe
in my direction; after which his assump
tion of perfect indifference seemed to me
a trifle overacted.
"Oh," laughed Lottio, that explains
why the poor fellow ate trnflle instead of
fowl with bis boiled ham and never
found out tho difference! I thought
what a curious taste he had."
But nunt refused to bo pacified; nbo
had reached that state of mind when
troubles are positively preferred to bless
ings. "Saying 'No' to Mr. nowarth will not
buy a new drawing-room carpet," or eat
np nil the tarts and custards and cakes.
I am sure," warming to her subject
"the waste has been shameful! When
tho confectioner's man came this morn
ing, I had not a single cake or jolly or
blanc mange to send back, for every one
had been broken into! And I saw you,
Chris, take just a spoonful out of that
expensive porcupine, when a plainer
oake already commenced was close by
you."
"Oh, don't llame Chris for that,
auntie!" I exclaimed. "It was done for
Miss Jones, no doubt. If he had tho
power Chris would cut off a bit of tke
Koh-i Noor itself ii she asked him."
"I would," said Chris; "she ia worth
a hundred Koh i Noors."
"P.eally!" observed Peter, aroused at
last from the gloomy lethargy that bad
possessed him alt dinner-time and ad
dressing Chris. "What a pity she doe
not regard you in the aame light! Sho
told me last night how she hated danc
ing with you, saying that you were so
clumsy you were constantly getting your
feet on her diess."
"Indeed!" retorted Chris, "she told me
the same thing about you."
"I don't believe it," aaid Peter.
"Another quarrel!" cried my aunt.
"Oh, dear, dear, what will be the end of
"The end of it all might be pleasant
enough," I replied with energy, "if only
every one of you would display a little
common-sen-. I am ont cf patience
with you all! . , ,
"Well, Meg," Mid Lottie calmly,
"you general'y seem to think yourself
capable of getting the world to righta; tc
can you sot onr litilo world straight? It
st oius to mo we aro all miserable What
can you anggest to make ns happy?"'
"Common sense," I repeated "only
CPuiuion-M'tipo, Take my advico uud
pi'ncit will be restored."
"Let us have it then," aiJ my nunl
querulously.
"Oh, let us have 'Meg'a odvice' at
once!" snoertd Chris again. "IIoiv is it
wo have not thought of this pauacea
earlier?"
"I will coinmeneo with my uncle," I
lgan firmly. "Let him at least, rcako
hiia seo tlie doctor to night ami ho will
bo better beforo morning."
"That is good advico cnongh," said
aunt, "and I will toll him."
"As for yon, aunt go to bod at onco
aud forget your worries. Wo v. ill start
a subscription list for yon, which I will
head with five shillings; mid if tt e others
givo with ciiA liberality, neeurding to
their means, you will be ablo to ropluco
all the broken crockery and havo the
white heaithrug cleaned also."
"That is good advice, too, and I will
do my part by goicg to bed immediate
ly," said aunt meekly. "1 am much
obliged to yon, Meg."
"As for you, Peter," I continued
severely, "I think, instead of qu rreling
with Curis about Mis Johncs, vim had
better turn your attention nearer homo.
I know poor litllo Kitty lleynolds would
cry hsr eyes out when she got home last
night, or rather this morning."
".Yon know more thau I do then," re
turned Poter.
."Yes, I do; for I am in Kitty's con
fidence, und you are nut; uud I kuow
what Kitty said to mo whon sho was go
ing home, and you do not. Aud my ad
vico to you, Peter, is, mako it up with
Kitty aud leave Miss Joucs for thoso who
want her."
"Capital advice! But I never osked
you for it, you see; so I don't consider
myself bound to tako it;" and ho wont
on eating tarts.
"And now, girls," I continue., look
ing at Lottio and Sophy, "make up your
minds to the inevitable, and chungo
lovors. Thoy aro twins, aud so much
alike that you cannot always tell w hich
is which; and I think It must be merely
contrariness iu you two to pretend you
like either one hotter than tho othor;
and" with just a careless glance at
Chris "contrariness never pays in tho
end. So take my advice, transfer your
affections quiotly and say no moto about
it."
Then I helped mysolf to some bluno
mange, and went on eating my dinner.
"But you havo. forgotten mo," ob
served Chris; "pray have you no advice
for me?"
"I hesitated a moment, then looked at
him defiantly.
"Well," I said, "I think tho advice I
have given Peter might also apply to
you; instead of making yourself
ridiculous about Miss Jones, I think you
might find some one to aduiiro nearer
home."
Tbeu, owing to Peter's delighted
"Bravo, Meg!" and Chris' steady Btaro,
I had a sensation that 1 had never ex
perienced in all my self posseted lifo
before I think it was embarrassment
and I rose hastily from tho table and
left tho room, presumably to sou "why
that dog howled so." And Curia must
havo left, curious on that poiut too, for
ho also left tho table aud followed mo to
Noro's kennel.
Whon wo camo in ngaiu Teter was
standing in tho hall with his top coat on,
brushing his hat very carefully.
"Why, Peter," I exclaimed, "where
aro you going? I should have thought
you would havo been more inclined for
bed than a walk. Where are yon go'.ng?"
Poter looked at us with a curious mix
ture of defianco and shccpiuliness in his
expression.
"I nm going to see Frank Reynolds,"
he said. "Ho told mo last uicht that he
has u little terrier that ho thinks I shall
liko, and he said ho would lot mo have
it cheap; so I am going to look at it."
"But," remarked Chri3 pitilessly,
"yon know that Frank has gone away
from home to-day, aud won't bo back
until Monday; and your journey will be
ntterlv fruitless, will it not, if you find
only Kitty in?"
"I shall see tho terrier," muttered
Peter, putting on his hat, "and shall
leave word whether I will have him or
not."
"Oh, I havo no doubt it will bo all
right," I remarked, with an innocent air.
Peter looked at mo, and tlioi- said:
"What was tho matter with Nero?"
"Oh his chain I think his collar!"
I stammered, taken aback by tho Biid
donncss of hh question, and ending by
an appealing glance at Chris.
"Never mind, never mind!" cried
Peter, waving his hands. "As you said,
Meg, I have no doubt it will be all right;
it's leap year, you know, and Chris hus
ouly acted as any other man " Here
Peter darted through tho hall door and
slammed it after him, otherwiso the hat
brush would have Btruck him.
When Chris and I entered the dining
room aunt was thero.
"Your nncle has just seen the doctor,"
she said, smiling a littlo as she kissed me
beforo saying good night; "and if any
of tho others havo been as ready to net
upon your advice, you can let us kuow
in the morning. I think wo are oil
leady for bed to-night."
"I shall have to sit up for Peter,"
aid Chris.
"One of the servants can do that,"
said aunt.
"No, they ere all tired out," answered
Chris; "and I shall liko to Bit up, just
to see poor Poter'a bewilderment when I
ask him what is the color of the terrier."
"Ob, he won't be bewildered at all!"
I put in. "He'll answer in all simpli
city, 'Plum colored' or 'Navy blue,' and
then wonder why you look surprised."
When aunt had retired, I noticed that
Lottie and Sophy were busy doing
something to their photograph albums,
and, observing them qnietly,! saw them
exchange two photographs. I said noth
ing; but when ws all went upstairs to
gether, they were merrier than usnal
and quite friendly again.
Thus the day begun so dismally ended
right happily; and Its results were hap
pier still-for Peter and Kitty are mar
ried and happy now; Lottie and Sophy
are whispering together about a forth
coming "donble wedding," and Chris
having also condescended to take "Msg's
advice" for once has a wifo who wor
ships the very gronnd he treads on and
be deserves it, too.
