Why, we've lived hero a month. I could go anywhere Id thli town," replied Fanny, tlio If eonfident, addin.j: "I've aeon the school lots of times. It's a big houso marked School,' with stops up to It." Tho description was not definite, bill tho child somuml ho siiro that her moth er was siitisliud thero could bo no mis take, and sent the two children off with a kiss mid an injunction to ho good girls. ' When they bad gone she turned to tho sick nuiii lyinjr ou the bod with tli6 words: "The children have already im bibed the spirit of tho placo, Ili-nry. Thny are jtiHt uchin to do and dare." Her husband smiled faintly, saying only! "1 hope they'll como to no harm; I wish vou could have taken thorn, Nell." ' "They'll got along well enough, and I couldn't think of leaving you when you're sufl'crinj so. They looked quite respectable, didn't theyP I'm suro they were as well-dressed a the majority ol the children who go past here to tho public schools. You know I mudotho.se little cloaks out of your overcoat, and tliulr shoo are still good; but their dresses aro certainly very Bhabby. Ah, welll better times must Co in storo for us." Honry was about to but, "They cculdn t well be worse," but ho had not the heart to put an extingtiishoi over such a sunbeam, ns Nell, and so lay quiet Tho two children, la the meantime, were wiiliiing bravely out of tuoil own poor ( but respectable neighborhood into oho bordering on tho fashionable res aeneo part of the ...... . i- v..r .1 i oity. lull nouses, wiiu uiiuuuy pol ished railings, high j stone steps and shining pla'o-glass windows lined the . street, ilcforo sum of them oiirriages were stand ng, and from the doors of those portly, wolMresso.l gentlemen lrisuod, buttoulng tlio r gloves ami giv ing last directions to some InvUiblo agent within tho dbor before they mi te rod their carriages to bo driven down town to husincKB.7 At last tho spirit of doubt began to vox the m n I of I tlio haty, ana sue looked up ut herhistor with Inquiring oyos, asking: "IK you forgot It, Fan ny?

"Miss Barnard's jwvnto School;" but the last word wa all Fanny knew. The two eagerly Polluted the steps, Katy cling in" Hi'11' t0 I'anny's hapd, and rang tne K1L A neut-looking girl appeared RnuMiereU tlieni into a small room, f.i uished with chairs p uttires, a clock , and a writ ng deiik. As soon as the ' J . i' I 1 L I - ... aoor opeuuu ranny nau oegun iht m- lie speech : "We're Mr. Whitaere'i little eirls. and wo want to go to school here." Hut tho girl only smiled, ami said: "W a t a minute," ana went out "This don't look a bit 1 ko a school. does it?" sad Fanny; and Katy re- pucu: "Don't it? 1 never waa in a school- house." "Oh, so you weren't what was 1 th'.nklii? of. exclaimed Fannv, with dignilled amusement "Well, it don't not at all. i don t see any black boards, nor any desks nor books; and 1 don't scj any scholars, but us, nor, tiny teacher." " Just then tho lat lack was supplied, for a teacher enteiod, Miss Harnard herself. Mi 6 was a rather tall, well built woman of thirty-tiro, or there about with keen eyes and a linn mouth. Sho looked at the children euriously, but with a smile. "Do you wish to see me P" she asked. "Yes. please. We're Mrs. White acre's l.ttlo girls, and we want to come to school here. Mamma would have como with us, but papa's sick, and thore wouldn't be anybody 't all to stay with h m." "Do you know what kind of a school this isP was the lady's next question. All sortsof Burmfces procntvd them elves to Fanny at this. Could they hare gotten into a boy's school by mistake? Was it a boarding-school where the scholars were all grown? Either of these suppositions was dread ful, and it was with a heart that sank for tho first time that morning thai she asked, timidly: "What kind is it?" "It is a kindergarten." was the an swer; and as Fanny said "Oh!" in tono intended to sound relieved, K tv m d "Oh!" too. and then they loth looked ci nuzzled a before. M ss Birmird looked out of the window a moment, and seemed to be thinking. Then alio said: "Como and see the oliool. children. Ihen vou w, II under 1und ubout it better than If I should tell vou," They followed her with tiptoeing stens down a lonir. ciupete I uu l ra perod hall, and into a large roo-n, also carpeted and papered. The walls were hung w th pictures, hang ng-baskets full of vines, and cages containing canaries were in tho window: little wicker chairs were scattered about tjo room, and a Ion?, low desk ran around two sides of it On a platform near the door stood a piano, and ie .front of it sat a young lady ready to play. Hut best of all. tho room was filled with little Rirls from three years of ago to nine, all standing in rows, their br ght faces turned toward the piano, Such curls, such dainty aprons of mus I'm and lao ), such beautiful pla d dresses and shining shoes, and sum white littlo bands sparkling w.th rings! The ch Idren thought they nad cntereu fairyland, and were sure ol it a mo nicnt later, when tho musio struck up and the rows of cim began to march They wheeled and wheolod acrain, formed themselves into a hollow square, and performed all sorts of bewildering evolutions. Then at a given signal they filed each to ncr own cnair, arm nui uuwn, taking up the first work of tho day. This happened to bo making tiny bas kcts out of many-colored splints, and the little Whltacres watched It with ce lighted eyes. Hut in a few minutes Miss Harnard thought she heard some thing that sounded like a sob, and look ing down, she saw that the younger ch Id was crying on her sister's shoul der. Taking Katy by the hand, she leu tho way out of tho room. "What is tho matter, my doar?" she asked kindly, stooping down to wine away the tears, and Fanny, with the quick Insight of a child into another's feelings, answered: f tliinlr ulina nt-vlnrv fne frlnil itnuu . ....... U .... cause it s so pretty and sho wants to do it I think this school is the best I ever saw." This sage and complacontly-deliv- ered opinion mado Miss Harnard smile They were uot tho pair of worldly-wise children she had suspected, and her design was completely frustrated by their simolioitv. Thev had evidently no su-picion that tho school was not open to them as wcro tho public schools, arid sho shrank from enlight ening tlieiu. "Do you think it would take us long to learn to mnrch and raako baskets?" asked Fanny, whilo Katy wiped her eyes, and listened with Interest lor tho reply. "No; it will not take you more than a day or two;'' and with Unit answer Miss Harnard leit sho had committed herself, and could not go back. "Come to-morrow, a littlo earlier, sho said, "and I will holp you to start right" Sho opened the door for them, and followod them with her eyes as they went cautiously down tho steps. At the foot they turned as with ono accord, looked back, smiled, and called out "(jood-byo!" "Habes in the wood, if eycr thore were any!" exclaimed Miss Harnard as sho dosed the door. - Strangely enough, It was only the evening butoro that Miss Harnard had said to herself, ns she figured up her reco'pts lor the half-terra: "What nelllsh rrciituro 1 ami Making one hundred dollars a month, clear, and nobody to t ike care of but myself und Klllo, and yet my mito In tho contribu tion box is all l give tor cnunttible pur poses. If I only had tinio to look up people that need help 1 should cer tainly do It! Hut thero it Is. I never have tho t mo, and 1 can not bear to subscribe to these big a-soo ations that take in and do for the uist and tlio un just by machinery. I l ko to seo where my money goes and what It does, and niako suro that l am not buying new carpets for a director or new bonnets for a matron. ' A bit of a cvnlo was Miss Harnard. Inclusively business relations w th tho world are apt to huvo that clleet on ono. When,' therefore two scarcely more than babies presented themselves at her door demanding in all innocence their cducat on free gratis, Miss Har nard's mlrul reverted to her thoughts of tho evening beforo, and something said to her blaiiily, "This Is your op portunity." Uao, however, had bred such a habit In her that it was not easy to uo a iiung so imniiesuy unousinosg. like, henco Iter momentary hesitation. Tho impulse camo again, and stronger than before, and it waa tins and not herself which had answered Fanny's question. When tho kindergarten department closod at noon for the day, and Miss Harnard had leisure from her h gher classes, kuo stepped into the room where uno lianiuury, her young half sister, had charge every day of the lit tle folk. Klllo had been so absorbed in her ruuslo that nho hud scarcely noticed the entrance of her Bister with tho two children that morning, and so was nuito at a loss to' understand when laulino said, Binding shamefully, as ono 'iocs at a joke on one s self : "Well I've taken them!" "Taken what? ' said Kfllo, whirling around. "I hopo, Paulino, you haven't been stealing at your t mo of 1 to; hut I can Infer nothing elso." ."No; I'm afraid you'll think It's worse than that I've taken thoso two children into the -school. "Oh, is that all? You take in one or two nearly every day. That Is not sur prising." "Ah, but theso aro little indigents, and can't pay their way." "And vou are admitting them for nothing ?''' "los; 1 couldn t Ycrywell help it they were so flattering, you know. One said it was the best school she ever saw. We shall never miss the money." - nu, it ibu t mat; uut mo rvj Kerj, and the Scotta, and the Pancfords they will be certain to object Those dirty, 1 ttlo things among these dainty, cotton-wrHpped biti of jewelry!

They were perfectly clean and whobs, it ... i i i..i.i i t.i- . i nut in oiuiuer imuutirus nor wun poso bonnets, but they looked as respectable a two ch ldren could." Thev will teach all sorti of street- t:ilk and bad grammar to our cliihiie i, depend upon it "sii d Klllo, then, draw ing her urgumotits from probabil.t es suicu fao'.s had faded her. "Street-talk, ind. ed! 1 wish youcould have heard tin I t: lo things! J'ho mo-t innocent pair I ever saw; tho danger of contamination w 11 all be the other wav." Miss Harnard would soon have ma le cherubs out of her young appl cants had liers ster continued to attack them, but Ktlie s mply, shrugged her shoul ders at this last remark, and said pres ently: "Well, it's not my afla r; do as you like! IJut take mv word lor it, I'aulmo, you hare taken steps in a path that you don t see tho end or. "Do you know, Kflio," said her sis ter, softening, "that I've fell for along time as if I were very seltlsh to be lay Ing up so much when there are so ma y people who need help and deserve it? And it really seemed as )i theso chii drcn were sent to give me a chance to do something, becauso I haveu't the time myself to look up such matters. 1 haven't foltcomfortablo for some tirao, but I didn't know what tho troublo was until to-day." "Dear, dear, you are incorrigible!" sighed Klllo. "If you had Socrates' demon you would never bo contented to wait till it checked you; you'd be forever looking round, and saying: , 'Whore is that demon of m ne? W hy doesn't he come and cheek me? I'm sure I'm doing something I ought'nt to.'" Hut as she ,sa;d this, tho younger woman put hor hands allectionateiy on the elder's shoulders, and looked with loving reproof into her eyes. Thjro was a motherly feeling oftentimes in Paulino Harnard's heart to wards this half-sister, ten years her junior, but she did not know motherly ways of expre-sion, and that made a troublesome reserve between them at times, for Klllo was by nature demon strat vo and fond of demonstration from others. When a child sho had once complained to their mother: 'Pauline puts out her hand sometimes as if she was go ng to pat mo, and then she just buttons my urofs, or straightens my collar, and I feel bo disappointed." Whon, In later years, during Efllo's college days, there camo to her a real disappointment in tho shape of a lover's quurrcl and a broken engagement the mJther who had listoned to her com plaints was doad, and sho felt that she could tell only tho baro facts to Paul ue, who had always been so absorbed in making her own wav, as scarcely to know that suoh a class as lovers ex isted. So she had smiply mentioned In her letters that the young senior and herself were henceforth to bo nothing to each other, and had added: Please do not speak of this to mo the sooner it is forgotten, the better." I Paulino had looked upon this as n very sensiblo way of taking it and had ejected her sister homo again the Same gnv. saucv girl as before; it took hta a long tltno to account to herself lor luu enuuju jii r.uiu a luuna uuu tones and ways,' but she accustomed herself to It gradually and kept silence as sho had been bidden. It had all happened fivo years ago, and by this time tho lives of the two women had settled into a rut so dtaep that they could "barely see over the edge of it" as Klllo said. There was nothing to look forward to. very little that wus ploasant to remember; every Christmas found them buying gifts for each other In a perfectly open and aboveboard way, by which all the d s tinctively Christmas flavor of surprise was lost; every summer they took tho same trip to the same farm-house, whoro no one camo but themselves, and whore thoy spent tho summer months, lam inting'inwardly that it was not fall and thev had no work to do. That Fanny and Katy. sitting in her littlo reception-room, were angels, whom sho was entertaining unawares, Miss Harnard had no idea if she al lowed horself to,dwcll upon tho matter of obligation at all, sho felt rather that tho role of beneficiary was theirs. At tho end of tho week, Klllo said, abruptly, as sho sat crocheting by the study-lamp: "l'aulino. something must be done those shabby skirts v the midst of all thelinerv look liko blotches on a painting, and 1 simply : can not stand it" "What do you meanP" 1 Pauline looked up from the evening paper, surpnsod. A ' "I mean that I'm going to get somo flannel and make somo dresses for those children. They look l ko Ra phael's cherubs in a splint frame." "Hut do you sup) oso their mother will allow it?" "I'll go to se her and find out." "1 wouldn't do that if I wcro you, Kfllo. I don't believe she knows the children are attond ng a private school, and she nrght tike them away. Christmas Is not far off, and you could make up tho dresses and send them anonymously as Christmas gifts." "Hut how Khali I get their measure?" "Let mo boa," said Miss Harnard, musingly, ihey must be just ahouj tho size of Madgo aid Matido Kyker, and you could? take tlicir meu-ures f.omo day iu fun, without any o io's suspecting what you were about" "les, 1 cau do that" said Kllie. "Would vou make them up as Mother Hublards?" "Yes, and make somo littlo hoods and cioiks to math!" exclaimed Miss Harnard, dropping tho papor and ba cntn.ng thoroughly interested, while Klllo with sparkling eyes and animated face went Into det.t 1 to such an exteut, that none but a dressmaker could be exnectod to follow hor. From that day forth, the mam top c of conversation with tho two teachors was the Whitacre children "our dolls," as Kllie stvled them. Gradually, mutls and tippets, warm. coarlet stock ngs, and tiny art cles were added to tho outfit and on the day before Christmas the whole was pluco l in two large boxes, accom panied by Chr'stmas cards and sent by u mcsscngcr-boy to the little flat on Carson street Tho boy hail his In structions, and as soon as he had made suro that it was the proper place of deposit he dropped the boxes and ran. Ih ngs had been going from bad to wore with the Whitacres, though the children had not been allowed to sus pect it. llonrr Whitacre was still con Uned to his bed, the little stock of sav-1 ings which they had brought with them to the strange city was lessoning every day, and tho bills for coal seemed jiiormous. Knowing no one. Mrs. Whitacre would have found it diflleult to obt.t n work for herself, even if sho could have left her husband, who required almost constant attention. With matters in this shapo, and a bleak w nter sottl n? down upon them, it was with a heavy heart that Mrs. Whitacre opehed the door to the messenger. 1 The boxes were marked pla'nly enough, "Fanny and Katy Whitacre. Christmas, 188," and all she could do was to take them in and open them. Tho contents, , w th their unspoken message of comfort and care, drew from her eyes tho tears which neither hardship nor her husband's despond ency bad forced to flow, and she laid her bend down upon the boxes and had a good cry. There aro times when a sympathetic word, or look, or sign, is the last straw, and this was one of them. After the general delight that fol lowed the open ng of the boxes camo a general cunoity as to who could have sent them. W'hilo they were still dis cussing this quest on, as the children stood arrayed from head to foot in their new suits, camo a ring at the door which was like none ever heard there before. It was the postman, with the first letter which had come to them since their removal to the e ty. "From Jack!" cried Mrs. Whitacre, "and it has been a whole month find ing us! It must have been wr.tten about the time we moved, and ho hadn't re ceived my letter giving our new ad dress. It is post-marked Los Angeb-s." Scarcely had she glanced at the first fbw lines, then she turned to her hus band with a glad cry. "Ho is coming in b x weeks, he Bays that is two weeks f om now oh, and ho thinks he may s ittle hero! Isn't that too good to bo t ue? ' As she turned the page, a bit 0 f paper fluttered into her lap, a check for fifty dollars! "To buy toys for. the b ibics," the writer explained. It was v iry evident that her struggles to get u ong had never been mentioned to him ii i the letters of his proud si.-ter. And so it was that on the day after J ew Tear's, while tho children were at s ihool, Jack Medway arr.ved uncx p 'ctudly and took the houso by storm. 1 op had revived in Henry's" breast s nci the Christmas surprises, and he as beginning to sit up and to look s ropger and not quito so colorless. As fi r nits wife, she flew to the arms of J ick's shaggy great-coat and laughed a iJ cried, and begged himtotakeotl his o (I'coat, and clung to him bo that ho cotldu't, and did and sa:d things that would have been undign lied even in Fanny. " After a good hour of talk about e erything that had happened and was g ing to happen, the newcomer grew ii ipaiicnt and anxious for tho children t como, and finally proposed going to tno H'-iiooi aim surprising inciu. ("Where are they?" ho asked; - "Do J9U suppose their dragons w 11 let me seo them?" "Oh. yes thoir teacher is anything but a dragon, I judge from tho way In which thoy speak of her. The school-building is on the corner of Borry street and King avenue, they tell me. I have never been to visit it though I mean to somo day. Bring them homo withyou. Jack, if you may." A fow moments later Jack Medway, with a puzzled face, was walking up the steps of Miss Barnard's pr.vatu school. "Th's is certa'uly tho right corner," he said, "but now ;n tho world cau they send tho children to a private school in a fashionable quarter like tlrs?" ilo had no curds w th him, and so simpl v sent word that a gentleman would like to see the Whitacre children, if the r teacher d d not object. It might bo ull right Klllo thought, but there was no telling she would do bettor to see him herself first; so with out so much as a look in the littlo cloak-room mirror, sho went into tho reception-room. Sho d d not know how bright the color was in her checks from the recent lesson in calisthenics, nor how becoming, with her dark ha'r and eyes, wcro tho Jacqueminot ro.es Which one of the children had placed In her button-hole that morning. But when ho saw her as sho came toward him, Jin k Medway was ready to say that sho looked as young and twice as pretty as fivo years ago, on tho evening of their broken engage ment He met her at the door, look ing down upon her from his six feet, and, In his shaggy great-coat filling up the narrow door-way. "Klllo, is this you?V ho cried, hold ing out both hands. She was as tonished, of course, but after her first exolamaton of "Jack!" under her breath, she put out one of her hands and said, demurely: "It is really 1. Mr. Medway." Don't call mo tha's!" he "protested, impctuou-dy. "I.ct it bj Jack, as it used to bo", Kft;o, and let's begin tho New Year right. I have been sorry a thousand times, and if I had known whoro yon were, I should hare to!d you so. Now, shall we call It sqnareP'' lie demanded, still holding her hand. What could sho do but assent to the romantio proposition couched in mch unromantio words? It is possible thut Jack would have forgotten his errand, and Ktlio her young charges, had not Paulino entered the recept on room, not knowing that it was occupied, and by her completely non-plussed expression reminded them that thj afta r was not as clear to others ns to themselves. Then tho 1 ttlo Whitacres were brought in and k sscd and embraced all around, in a way that mado them go about for the rest of the day with a look that expressed resolution not to be smothered if they could help iU When Pauline and Kflio found them selves again alone together, the former said, after a half-hour's musing before the tiro: "Don't tell me there's no such thing as design in hnmsn affairs! Was it ever icteuded that I shouldn't take in those" "Dirty littlo things?" supplied Kflle, with a shamefaced laugh. "My dear Paulino, 1 shudder to think what a nar row escape I have had! And I. who didn't deserve anything, "have thb re ward, whilo you have nothing! ' "I have nothing?" svd M ss Barnard. "You are mistaken, Ktlie, I have rained a great deal." And so she had.
