In brown iioiland apron alio stood In tho
Ititclicn ;
Her alcoves wcro rolled up and her chcoita
nil aglow;
Her hair was coiled neatly and I Indiscreetly,
Hlocd watching whilo Nancy was kneading
tho dough.
Now, who could bo neater, or brighter or

Or who hum a Bonn ao delightfully low,
Or who lookB ao slender, so gracefully tender,
As Nancy, awect Nancy, whilo kneading

How doftly alio prciacd It, and squeezed and

And tvitcd and turned It, now quick and

Ah, me, hut that madneis, 1'vo paid for in

'TwaB my heart alio was kneading ni well
as tho dough.
At last, when nho turned from htrpan to tho
dresser,
Sho taw mo and blushed, and said shyly,
"l'lcno go,
Or my broad will ho spoiling, in ipito of my
toiling,
If you stand hero and watch whilo I am
kneading tho dough,"
I begged for permission to stay. Shu'd not
listen ;
TliOBvvoot littlo tyrant slid, "N" sir! no

Yet when I had vanished on luinir thus
banished,
My heart staid with Nancy while kneading
tho dough.
I'm dreaming, sweet Nnncy, and ico you In

Your heart, love, has softeud and plttlcd

Miss Piper's Pupil.
Mich l'nnilorn Piper, toucher of music,
who liiul lmnl work to keep soul anil

innuiigeri to lust until tho could got a
now one, received n very ttingulur nolo
which had been handed in at tho door,
tho landlady'.) "Kill" Hiild, by an "elderly
Kcntlenmn."
Tho oplrftlu wus onveloiicil in tho
coslllicst ami most lichly decorated on-
vclopo thatcouW ho procured for Iovo
or nionoy nnywheie. Tho paper, near
ly ns thick as cardboard, was to mutch.
A coat of arim win in tho corner, and
tho words below wero lis follows ;
.Miss 1'iper: A 1'erson of negluctod
odercuHhun is wishful to ho nndeituck.
Willkull at !l. Mastf.u Si.mr.it.
"My Kiaeioim!" ejaculated 51 Us Pan
dora; "ho iiuiel have been neglected,
that's certain. 1 novor saw anything
liko that bofoio in all my life! Fatally
forgotten, 1 should hay! Well, I wonder
what ho can ho liko. Ho must ho rich 1
HuppoM-. Poor people can't alTowl Mich
ntiitionery us this. And a coat ot arms,
too! Shoddy, 1 stinmo; hut no that he's
hut so thai ho's respectful, why should
1 caie for that? lie will probably pay
well, and I've lost Anno Klin (frigs,
hy marriiiKo, just as she was beginning
to take variations."
"Nora, 1 shall bo in if a new pupil a
gentleman calls at three o'clock."
Nom, who liked 5lh- I'iper, who
often jjhvo her little piOfonls, and who
kept on an upper shell of her closol
some hals.un whieh sho was always
ready to apply to llio poor girl's awk
ward liiim' which weio always bolus
cut, or burnt, pinched, t;mo un andablo
iin, and ollcrcd to polish up tho grate
when sho had u minute, "Hooing that a
hlrunKor was coming."
The morning woro nway. Two little
girls had gone through their exorcises,
and a heavy lady, who took lessons in
vocal iuuie, had neaily hurst a blood
vessel in endcxvoiing to gain a ceilaiu
high note, which was tho object of her
ambition.
5liss Piper had been around tho cor
ner to fiivo a lesson there, and over tho
way to see another pupil's practicing.
Sho camo homo in n hurry, arranged
her hair, saw that her little parlor was
neat, and awaited her guest with fever
ish anxiety.
At last ho came.
Nora showed somo ono up stairs, aud
thoro entered at tho door an elderly
gentleman, of lenign npiwarance, dress
ed in tho latest fashion, hut not without
regard to his age, who, bowing low, re
marked. "I hope I am not lato mum. I know
your timo must bo very valuable,"
"1 am sure I only wish overybody was
lis punctuul," said Miss Piper. "It is
exactly three o'clock."
' You're very kind, mum" said tho 1
gentleman, seating himself, ns Miss
Piper mctioncd him to n chnir. "I'm an
oldish pupil I supposo you think ; hut
I'll explain. I think I've explained in
my nolo, hut I'll explain again. I've
been neglected, not from nny unkindncss
for my poor mother did tho best sho
could for mo but wo wcro very poor. I
don't wish to mention tho humblo po
sition I'vo always occupied until a year
ago, when somebody from England
camo and hunted me out. 5rothcr was
dead, poor dear! Hut this was how it
was : Father was very rich and up in
tho world; mother was a housemaid.
Ho married hor, and his mother was
furious, and mothor couldn't stand it.
Sho ran away; sho camo here, and lived
an honest, hard-working life. It was
only whon sho died that sho told mo my
nmno was not Noggings, but Sligcr, and
that sho had writton to my father, or
got Homo lawyer to write, and ho was
dead, too, and I camo into tho property
and loft tho humblo position I won't
allude to, and well, I'm tich, but I don't
know anything, and before I go to
England I want to bo educated. You
understand?"
"It's a very laudablo ambition, I'm
sure," said Mis Piper. "I usually teach
music, hut of courbo I can uiulcrtako
tho English brancho."
"Yes, mum," roplicd tho gentleman,
hastily. "I want to begin with music
tho pyanin'r. I havo never known
any ono'in high life who could not play
noon tho nvnncr. Jlcisin with that and
goon to spelling, whieh I am conscious
I sadly need."
It was not the usual course, hut there
was a seriousness and dignified man
ner about this "neglected" person, that
mado it impossible for 5Iiss Piper to say
so. Mho mentioned nor icrms, mm sci
tho hours for tho lessons, and so skill
fully emphasized tho namo of tho in
strument, that Mm Hliger, before his
departure, had heirun to call it tho
"peoarno" instead of tho "pyanncr."
At tho door however, ho givo her n
dreadful shock.
"I wish, mum," ho remarked, "to be
gin with tunes."
5liss Piper was a conscicnclous littlo
teacher, but sho felt that thoro wcro
pconlo in this world who must hno
their own way; and 5Ir. .Sligcr's first
lesson consisted of tho "Whlto Cock-
ado."
Ho had a very good ear, and was
anxious to learn. From tho "Whilo
Oockado" ho went on to, "I.ifo Let Us
('hoilsh," and poor, guilty 51 iss Pipor,
who felt that tho notes bad very littlo
to do with his performance, beat timo
nud counted.
MeiunvhUo sho found, that, leaving
education out of the question, tho man
was very scsiblc that ho was kindly
and amiable. Once corrected on tho
pronunciation of a word, ho never bo-
fume n MicKsimor on Hint worn, now-
over, it was ho who arranged everything
not his teacher.
As other lessons wero added, the
neglected perron set tho hours for thorn;
finally ho had six hours a day. All tho
pupils were dismissed but ono. Tho
spelling lesson, tho less in geography,
the lesson in history, followed each
other. All the week days ware his.
Poor 5liss Piper had no power to say
him nay. He paid well, ho treated hor
with actual rev oreiuv ; but tho last pu
pil wont when he elected to copy somo
very Hat "llowor pieces" which Mis Pi
por had executed in early youth, and
call this a lesson in painting. Ho had
all hor week day at last. He certainly
had improved in pronunciation, tint
5liss Pipor felt herself to bo a humbuir.
What they really did was to spend
the day together exactly as ho chose.
Playing with educational hooks, thump
ing the piano, daubing llristol hoard
with impo-sible llowor, scrambling
through tho lesson in French of which
51 Us Pipor had a quarter from a Swiss
gentleman.
For along time sho was alone on
Sunday, and usually wont to tho
Methodist church, to which sho b
longed i hut 5Ir. Sligcr soon altered that.
He began by asking Her whether they
bad "these espon" of hers at the Ca
thedral on Sunday morning. And when
she instructed him that "vcsjvrs" weio
in the latter part of tho day, ho said that
lie would call for her.
Accordingly sho wont to vespers at
tho Cathordral in tho afternoon, aud.at
terthat, logulaily thico times a day to
ditVoj-ent churches.
It was then that tho landlady thought
it her duty to call.
Sho appeared in 5liss Pandora Piper's
apartment at tho awful hour of ten
o'clock at night. iuajetio in her crimp
ing pins, and with a ery serious coun
tenance, but sho was welcomed in with
a smile by tho little music lonelier.
"Clooil evening 5Iiss Grimm," said
she, haven't had n call from you for a
long while,"
"No, MUs Piper you haven't," said
Mrs. (irimm, with much emphasis.
"Hut yon could not expect mo to call
after such carying on."
"Why, what do you moan, 5lrs.
Griimul" ejaculated Miss Piper.
"Can you ask, Pandora Pipor?', an
swered tho landlady in her deepest chest
note. "The whole neighborhood is talk
ing about you !"
"About moP' screamed 5Hnj Piper.
"You and that man," answered tho
landlady.
"5Iy pupil, 5Ir. Sligcr" sobbed Miss
piper fairly in tears.
Your Dunll? Don't tell mol" said Miss
(Irimm. "Miss Pandora Phvor, I ahull
Ihj obliged to put up a bill for my second
lloor. jlou'vo Rot to go!
Oh, oh, ohf' cried Pandora. "Can
you think any harm of moT Why you
could como in at any moment. Nora
is in and out ovcry now and thin. Such
a rcspcctablo elderly Gentleman, and
such n correct person as I nni !"
"It isn't mo, Pandora." said Mrs.
arimm, (piito melted, "it's tho neigh
borhood. Tho. church-going, (if it is
church,) finished 'cm. You're of ago
this lone while, my dear ; but I can't
countonanco this. I shall put up tho
bill. Oh, oh, oh, Pandora! that it should
como to this!"
Poor MHs Pandora!
As hor friend and landlady walked
out of the door with her honkcrchicf to
to her oyes, sho stood motionless, ns
though turned to a pillcr of salt.
Sho saw just how this repair of ne
glected education must appear to her
small circle of discarded pupils, and
felt a strong desire to drown herself or
jump out of tho window, or turn on tho
Kns, or tako a box of matches in her
tea, and eho might actually, it seemed
to her afterwards, havo died of mollifi
cation, but that tho gong of tho front
door, pulled violently at this monent
startled her, and rvoru runninc mi
wrapped in a waterproof cloak, for sho
had been making prepcrations to go to
bed, announced:
"Mr. Sllger!"
"Ho can't como up," said Pandora,
nt this hour of tho night."
"No, Misss ho asks for you to come
down," niiid Nora.
Pandora went down.
Mr Sligcr was at tho door.
"There's a tolescopo at tho corner,"
ho said : "somcthiuir goinir on in somo
star or other, I behove, tict n bonnet
and a shawl and como and havo a peep.
It will bo a lesson in astronomy for me.
You con explain it you know samo
terms as tuo other lossons. '
Pondora obeyed without a word.
The door closed after tho two, leav
ing Mrs. Grimm staring at Nora.
"That's tho capsheaf!" said Mrs.
Grimm.
"Now," said Mrs. Grimm, "I wlll."
Meanwhile Miss Piper nnd 5Ir. Sligcr
pcepod through tho telescope and saw
tho rings of Saturn, which 5Ir. ghger
supposed to bo phenomenal and tempo
rary, and which were oxplainod ly
Miss Pandora to bo fixtures, and then
adjourned to an ico cream snloon of
much elogance.
"Thi, indeed, is dosporato dissipation,
5Iis9 Pandora said to hersolf, as sho sat
beforj tho cut-glass goblets on tho dam
ask cloth, and saw tho water splash
from tho littlo fountain in tho centre
into tho aquarium, and over tho glossy
plants, all rcllcctcd in tho long mirrors.
Howovor, what did it matter? Sho was
nlre.idv "talked about," turned out of
her lodgings as a person who had gono
wrong. Sho would kcop this merry mo
ment to remember whon sho bad put nn
end to all of this, by saying to tho neg
lected pupil that sho could no longer im
nart instructions to him.
Ho was ordering overy indigestiblo
luxery on tho bill of fare, tho diamond
on his littlo IhiKor Hashed liko a small
sun, obsequious waiters bobing about be
hind him. J to looucd kuuiiy at nor, and
asked her if sho liked this or that. Ho
was simnlo as an old baby ; oh kind as
an old lady; and ho was a pleasant
looking man.
"All ocr! All ovor!" sho said to hor
sel. "I might have known what a
wicked world this is, and how ill it
thinks of innocent things. Why might
I not go on teaching him forovcr with
out harm?
Peoplo wero coming in from concerts,
from tho theatres; tables woro ninug,
hut theirs, between two columns, boyond
the fountain wcro very quiet.
Tho waiters were gono to execute Mr.
Sligcr's behests. Suddenly ho turned
to her and took a letter from his
pocket.
".Miss Piper," ho said, "read that."
51 iss Pandora opened tho mUsivo and
perused it.
It was from a firm of lawyers, speak
ing in plain terms of 5Ir. St. Eeger as a
gentleman nnd a niiui of honor and for
tune. "I got 'cm to give it tome,", ho said,
"to show to you."
"I did not need it, indeed," said .Miss
Pandora, sadly. And this is tho way
whip linmn is ronllv siielt? St. I.PLrer:
it's a beautiful namo"
"It sounds a littlo curious to me," he
said. "Mother wroto it Sliger. I novcr
knew. Hut you see I'm all right. They.
neer took mo without a character when
1 went for a phico in tho poor time?, and
1 coulden't expect you to take mo with
out a character, either. I I don't
know whether yor despiso mo for my
ignorance, or not, but if you don't, why,
1 want you to take mo for your pupil for
life- toinarrv me, you know, Pandora.
Will you?"
It was a dreadful thing to do in such
a public place, but Pandora Piper felt
that she was going to faint tho room
grow dark.
Sho hold out hor baud for a glass of
water. 5fost of it was spilt on tho front
breadth of her now black silk, but that
whieh passed her lips relived her. Then
a sweet, soft scujo that tliero was no
more troublo for her in this world, crept
tnto her heart and sho smiled up nt
him.
"It was in my mind the first day I
came," he said. "I had seen you often
through tho window when you gave
lessens to tho little girl at Hell's. 1 felt
sure you were just tho woman for me,
and overy lesson you gave mo proved it.
I shall learn everything from you
goodness as well as spelling. Oh, say
"Yes!"'
Sho said, "Yes,"
Mrs. Grimm was sitting up for her,
pale with wrath, when sho returned;
but Pandora took her by both hands and
said:
"You won't turn mo out until after
my wedding; day, will you? You'll let
mo bo married here? It's to bo next
week. 5fr. St. Leger won't wait. You
sec, wo will havo to go to England and
livo on tho estate And, after nil, n
poor little music teacher needs no great
preparation."
"Servants nnd diamond?, nnd a coun
try houso and a city house, nnd every
thing heart can wish," 5Irs. Grimm
says, now. It's liko n romance."
And ruticlorn, happy with her good,
simplo husband, in her new Biirround
jugs, often think so hersolf.
