It Laid tbe Foundation for a Love
Story Before It Turned "Up.
The first night in the new house iow in
effabiy dreary it was !
May day had dawned with blue sky and
vrin'ds full of treaoherous balminess, but
Ions before noon it had'clouded over, and
with the dusk a fine, needle-pricking sort ol
rain had set In, which, without making
much outward show, had yet contrived to
drench us girls through and through as we
made our way along the streets with the
parrot's cage, the music box and the best
duplex lamp with the jeweled glass shade,
the three household treasures which forthe
life of us wo dared not trust to the tender
mercies of the truckman, in spite of his
manifold vows and declarations that be had
moved the very best families in New York,
and some of 'em every May day for ten
yearn.
V e eked out our painfully insufficient in
come, Beulah and I, by letting lodgings, and
we did not always have luck in the busi
ness.
To speak paradoxically, the new house
was an old house, and not in the best of re
pair. The yard gate was oft its hinges ; one
window blind banged distractingly against
the north sido whenever the wind took a
lurch in that direction, and as Beulah en
deavored to warm a can of cold tea above
the. flickering gas jet we could distinctly
hear the rain leaking through on tbo, floor
above or heads with a ''drop-drop" like the
ticking of a clock.
As for me, I had cut my fingers trying to
open a box of sardines, and was dolorously
endeavoring to stanch the blood with a t.
from immaculate pocketrhandkorchief when
the last load came. ,
The truckman and his assistant were
tired and cross, and a little the worse for
beer; the old horse was played out; t;
rain drove harder aud harder, and the wind
blew out the shadcless gas in the hall just
as the little old assistant dropped the basket
that contained the best crockery wilh a
irash. And wo were glad enough when at
.cngth the last bundle of disorganized stove
pipes was flung into the basement hall, and
the truckman vanished like an ugly dream
Into the mist and darkness.
It was not until tho next day that we dis
sovered the trunk.
There it stood up against the wall, just
exactly as if it belonged there a snug,
square box, neatly covered with canvas,
and bearing innumerable hotel labels, for
eian and domestic, pasted on it, while the
3ne initial "C" faced us at either end in
black paint.
"Gracious me!" said Beulah. "What's
this?"
"Perhaps it belongs to one of the lodg
ers," said I.
"They don't any of 'em begin with 'C,' "
reasoned Beulah. "I mean their names
dont."
"It's a mistake, then." said I. "Some one
will bo sending for it directly." '
But day after day overlapped one another,
nd no one sent for tho trunk.
"The truckman ought to know," said
Beulah.
"Wo haven't got the truckman's ad
dress.' said 1. .
"Xo, to bo sure," sighed Beulah.
"I wonder what is in it-t anyway," said I.
"Do j ou know, Beulah! I almost think that
one of that bunch of rusty kivs we found in
the basement pantry would lit it."
"Wo oughtn't to think of such a thing,"
said Beulah, severely.
"Why not?" said I. ''Suppose the con
tents are perishable?"
"It would bo equal, to highway robbery,"
remonstrated Beulah.
"No, it wouldn't," said I, "and the old
thing is so dreadfully in one's way. If we
could only get it up into the store-room bo
fore the new lodgers come."
"Let's try," said Beulah.
So between us we hoisted the trunk up
two flights of stairs and put it away in the
angle of a chimney.
"It's awfully heavy," said Beulah, "ana
there's something rattles inside of it."
"I've heard of dead bodies being cut up
and parked in trunks sometimes," said ITin
a whisper.
"Letty, don't talk nonsense," said Beulah
with a shuddef.
We had had the trunk about a week in
our possession when I went back to the'
old house that we had left to get tli::,;c

board.
Mrs. Dawson, the old lady who had mo- .d
fn, was disconsolate. - -
I've lost my boarder," said Bhe, "al
ready."
Dear me I" said I, "that's a pity." -"As
nice a young doctor as ever you set
eyes on," sid she, "as wanted the front
room for an office and the back parlor f--bed
room."
'That would have been very nice," stw i.
"And all because ha couldn't find his
boaes," said Mrs. Dawson.
'Couldn't find his bones?" eohond I.
Surgical things and anatomies. t-ou
know," explained Mrs Dawson. lla as
good as intimated as .I'd stole 'cm. Now,
what sort of use could 1 make of a iot of
bones all wired together? Is it likely I'd
steal 'em I"
Mrs. Dawson was so solemn aud plaint
ive and tho idea was so supremely ridicu
lous that I went oft into a spasmodic fit of
giggling.
I could not help it, standing there on a
chair, with half my head and shoulders in
the closet. I hope she didn't bear me!
However, I found my bed-key and de
parted, and when I got home I told the
story of tho young doctor and tho bones to
Beulah and even gravo Beulah laughed.
"But I'm sorry that tho poor old lady has
lost her boarder," said Beulah, gently.
"So am II" I cried, overwhelmed, by a
'dden remorse; " and I wouldn't have
'auguea u 1 could nave helped it, Beulah
But I couldn't help it 1"
Half an hour afterward I heard Beulah
Tailing mo. Bat I did not answer, for the
very good reason . that at . that especial
moment I was a martyr to curiosity.
To speak truth, I was on my knees before
the mysterious trunk, trying to fit one of
the equally mysterious bunch of keys to it.

"And I hope no one'll never accuse me of

Dawson, unfolding a prodigious white pocket-handkerchief,
as if prepared to burst into
tears on tho shortest notice.
"It's it's full of bones !" I gasped. .
"Certainly," assented tho young man.
' 'It would be decidedly awkward to carry

The young doctor cxc'.nged ainuscc

Mrs. Dawson stared steadily Into her ' ock
et-handkerchief and Beulah loo .ed cs grav
as a tombstone, . I know I w;:s behaving
very badly, but what could I do!
'I'm sorry I opened tho trunk," said X.
"but I was so dreadfully, awfully curic.u
to know what was in it."
Believe me, Miss E.rry," said the young
doctor, "I shall not prosecute you."
"It was Very wrong of Lettie," said solemn
Beulah. '.'-.
"I'm always doing something wrong," said
I, disconsolately.
"But it was so very thoughtful of you,"
said the doctor to Beulah, "to reineinbci
that' this trunk might possibly belong tc
me. It sets all the little complications at
rest at once."
"And you won't give up Mrs. Dawson's
rooms' now?" said Beulah-kind Beulah,
who was always thinking of other poopie.
"Most assuredly not," said Dr. Carson.
But after they had gone away I went up
to my room and cried.
The idea of being caught I, a growh-ur
young woman opening trunks with
bunch of false keys on the sly !
And I could not be comforted until Dr.
Carson laughed me out of my scruples and
mortification.
He came often to the house to call after
ward. He said he owed so much to Beulah.
And one day, when I was feeling verj
cross and miserable, Beulah came to me.
"Letty," said she, " guess what Dr. Car
son asked mo to-day."
"It would require no fortune-toller tc
guess," said X. "He asked you to marry
him, and he has made a wise, wise choice
- And I hugged and kissed her tenderly.
"What nonsense!" said Beulah "and I
five years older than heat the. very least.
No, dear little Letty, he asked mo if 1
thought you would be. willing to ensure the
trials and privations of a young doctor's
wife."
"And did "yu say yes?" I cried, coloring
like a rose.
"No," said Beulah. "I left that for you
to say yourself." Saturday Hitri.t;
