THE MOTHER-IJE-LAW.
Grace Haielton m a happy woman ;
she had been married but a few month
to the man she loted ; but perfect bliss
is impossible in this world and she was
not in a very thoughtful mood ; for had
not all her frssEds warned her against a
mother-in-law f And her husband bail
ust informed her that he would liko his
mother to share their home.
"It is true," he continued, "that she
has all she requires in worldly senso.bnt
she resides in a distant city among
strangers ; she is advanced in years, and
I think she should be with her children.
You are very young, dear Grace, aud are
motherless ; and if you were to know mv
mother, I am sure you won hi love her. '
But these very words hardened the
young wife's heart ; she had resolved not
to love her mother-in-law, aud was sure,
she was a meddlesome old woman, who
thought no girl eared enough for her son
Harry ; and with womanlike consistency
was sure that the few faults her husband
possessed he inherited from his mother.
The door opened, and Mrs. Candid
entered. She greeted Grace by exclaim
ing :
"Moping already, and only been mar
ried a few months ! Have you had your
first quarrel, or did Harry forget to kiss
you good-by ?"
Mrs. Hazelton laughingly assured her
friend that none of these misfortunes had
occurred, and she was anticipating the
arrival of a guest,
"Do tell me who it is !" cried her gush
ing friend. "Is it Harry's brother ; or
one of his bachelor friends ?"
"Oh, no 1" was the reply. "It is his
mother."
"Horrors !" was the emphatic rejoinder.
"Yon are going to live with your mother-in-law
! I would never endure such an
infliction. I am older than you, so take
my advice ; do not consent to have her a
permanent inmate of your house. But I
have many more visits to pay." And she
left Grace Hazelton in no very enviable
state of mind.
Day after day she pondered on the
dreaded arrival," until she became quite
low spirited; and one morning she awoke
and found herself so weak that she was
obliged to keep her bed and consult the
family physician, who declared that she
was suffering from nervous prostration,
and inquired if she had any trouble on
her mind. She answered. "None."
Her husband endeavored to cheer her by
telling her that his mother was a good
nurse, and that under her care his little
wife would soon be quite well. Inno
cent man! he little suspected that the
only cause of her malady was the dreaded
mother-in-law.
Grace was not so ill as to require the
care of a professional nurse, and she was
sure that among her numerous friends
she would receive all the attention that
was necessary. She had been alone
many hours when she heard a tap on the
door, and her most intimate friend, Mrs,
Gushing ton, entered.
"My poor dear!" she exclaimed in
loving tones, "are you sick?"
"I was going to spend the afternoon
with you, bnt I am so sensitive that I
cannot see anr one suftering, and the
atmosDhere of a sick room always affects
me unfavorably; so good-bye my dear. I
hope you will soon be better.
A few more hours passed away, and
the invalid longed for a friendly voice
to cheer her. At last Mrs. Lemon en
tered the room, Her countenance corre
sponded with br name, i The sound of
her voice sonnuea suarp as sue ex
claimed: "This will neve do. You must not
give way, I am sure that your sickness
is all imaginary. My son John's wife
was always sickly, and when I came to
live with them I told her to go around
and work.it off. When your mother-in-law
comes I am sure that she will give
you the same advice, for we both come of
good, old-fashioned stock. Bnt you look
tired, so I will go."
Our young friend endeavored to for
get her troubles in slumber.but thoughts
of her mother-in-law had banished
sleep.
Harry Hazelton returned home and
found his wife weeping like a child.
',0h, Harry!" she cried, "I am so glad
that you have come! I am so lonely ,and
I feel so ill."
"Why, what is the matter, little wo
man?" he asked in cheering tones. "Did
all your friends desert you?"
"One or two called," she answered,
"but they appeared in a hurry, and only
stayed a few minutes. It has been such
a long day, and I feel as if I were alone
in the world. I have no mother no
kindred. I thought I had friends, but
now that I require their attention, l tiis
cover that I have only acquaintances."
"My child," replied her husband, "It

ness is the nature of mankind. Get well,
be able to entertain visitors, and your
clients' visits will not be hurried
The nejt morning the young wife
awoke ill in mind as well as body. The
long hours dragged along, no friends
came to cheer the poor invalid, only
polite messages of inquiry respecting
her health. She felt desolate and for
saken. Suddenly a faintness came over
her; her eyes closed, and she became un
conscious. When she recovered she
saw a sad, gentle face bending over her.
This lovely old lady could not be a
mother-in-law. She then heard the ques
tion: "Has the poor child no friend, that I
thus find her alone when she requires a
woman's care?" , '
"Mother," was the reply in her hus
band's voice, "are you not old enough
to know that the world is selfish?"
Then she realized that the dreadful
mother-in-law had arrived. Presently she
heard her husband say:
"I will now leave you, and I am sure
you will be able to take better care of
Grace than I can, for I do not understand
her sudden illness."
"My son," was the reply, "yon should
cheer yoar sick wife; and not sadden her
by unkjnd speeches."
The door closed, and they were alone.
The old lady embraced her daughter-in-law,
and eaid:
"My child, do not fret over those fool
ish words of Harry's;men are not so sen
sitive as we, and he did not intend to be
unkind. Now tell me what has prostrat-
ed you? You not only are ill.but you are
enduring mental anxiety. I do not think
my boy can treat you harshly, for I al-
ways taught him that it was uumanly to
b unkind to a woman. Confide in me,
my ohild, and tell me the cause of your
unhanpiness,"
rue young wire reply was to tnow i
arms around the speaker's ui and sob
out these words:
"Do not speak o kindly, for I must
make a confession that may change your
affection to dislike."
"Grace," was the reply. "I will spare
you the humiliation of any explanation
by uttering one word; that word is
mother-in-law. You dreaded my arrival
in the light of a social monster. And
now we will change the subject, for you
are too weak to talk. I have mado you
some jelly, and you must endeavor to
eat it, then try and rest, and I will soon
return."
A few hours later Mrs. Haiselton en
tered the room. She gently approached
the bed, and glanced at the young wife's
pale cheek; she looked but a child as she
slept. She moved uneasily, and softly
murmured, "mother!" She was dream
ing of the dead.
A tear fell on her upturned face.
She awoke aud for a moment imagined
that her mother had come from heaven
to watch over her child; but it was her
mother-in-law who bent over her and
shed the tear of sympathy, and it was on
her mother in law's breast that she
soblied ont her childish grief.
"Now, my dear," cried the old lady,
"you must 'not become morbid; try and
set np; I have laid the table iu the sitting-room
so we will surprise Harry
when he comes home with company to
dinner."
When the husband returned he was
surprised at the wouderful recovery of
his wife.
"Why, mother," he exclaimed, "you
must be a witch."
But the daughter-in-law answered:
"No. she's an angel. With noble forbear-
ance she refused to hear the confession
of my ignorant prejudice against her,
but i must acknowledge my fault.
Harry, my illness was caused by grief
at the idea of receiving your dear
mother."
"My child," replied Mrs. Hazelton,
"do not reproach yourself. When I was
your age I almost hated my hnsbaud'a
mother, and in after years we had nianv
a laugh over our first meeting; aud I
learned to love my mother-in-law with
true affection, for she was a noble
woman."
Five years passed away. Grace Hazel
ton knew both joy and sorrow. She was
a mother death claimed her babeshe
stood by its tiny coffin bowed down by
grief. It was the mother-in-law who
shared her sorrow and taught her
resignation to the will of God. Now
other little ones enliven her firesido, and
it is a mother-in-law who shares her joy.
A Woman With a History.
Mrs. Ellen Adair Beatty passed through
the city last evening en route from Blue
Kidge Springs, Va., her accustomed place
for spending tho summer, to Cracgie
Hope, where she will spend some time
with her niece, Mrs. Murray, and family,
of Memphis. - Mrs. Beatty is a remarka
ble woman. She is a daughter of Gov
ernor John Adair, of Kentucky. At the
age of IS she married Joseph M. White,
of Florida, who was elected to Congress
from that State aud orMnued to repre

without ever going to the State or even
asking the suffrages of his constituency.
He declined to serve longer before each
election, and finally waa allowed to re
tire on the pre text that hi wife's h-lth I
required a change. He then went aWanl
ii jaortanf foieigu mission, and remained
atJniad many years, whereby las gifted
and leautifnl possessed extraor
dinary advantages in haring the honors
of dignitaries in Church and State. She
was honored by a private interview with
the Pone of Rome fifty years ago without
paying the usual homage of kissing his
toe, and not only did he pledge ever to
rmive whomsoever she mitrht see proper
to commend, and to remember her in Lis
precis, but he sent her some valuable
presents, among which was an elegant
diamond cross, w ith an exquisite repre
sentation of the Saviour in amethyst.
Mr. White was a successful lawyer, and
at his death left an estate of a half mil
lion dollars. Five years and more had
elapsed after his death when Mrs.
"Florida hue, as she was Known in
Washington, married Dr. Beatty, of Sew
Orleans. He died in about nve years,
when she retired to the privacy of her
estate in Florida. There she remained
alone with her two hundred slaves until
the results of the war made changes
necessary. When Mr. Lincoln issued
the emancipation proclamation she
called them together and explained to
them its import. They reauity under

President Polk were special friends.
After the war she busied herself in the
building of a Southern Presbyterian
Church at Washington, and from one of
her own sacrifices she gave a couple of
thousand dollars realized on the sale of
her diamond cross; It was a relic that
sho greatly prized, and she would not
have parted with it, but, although she
had educated seventeen children, she

Tne warm weather brings out, besidea
flies, mosquitoes and other unpleasant
Insects, a disagreeable variety of the uu
saltod generation.
This is a time when bualntai men go
to and from tawn ery daydotm
business and their families. It isnot al
ways a pleasant thin? to make a railroad
journey of half an Yf ur or an hour iu the
morning after a bvcaVfunt), or in
the evening when a mau wants hip sup

stuffy car, while yon are jolted over niiles
of ill-lallasted road bed.
To have the nnsaltod generation follow
you even there with its anuoyanoe is
screwing down the discomfort a little too
tight.
But the cars are a fine field for the ob
jectionable young animals of tho cub
species. They prufor the smoking oar,
but they have' no injections to owning
the whole train. ,v"
They generally beinu work by talkiug
loudly to each oUwr. 4'ha conversation
runs something like this:
"I say, I saw Wh to day.'
"Didjur ask hiun.about Buttsy? lle.he

"Ha, ha, ha!" a sound as if somebody

"Ha, ha, ha!"

And so on for half tho journey. Tho
attention of tho entire car-load is
fastened upon them. Ofrgeutleuien lay
down their newspapers aud gaze, more
in wonder than iu anger, at the disturb

An alleged correspondent of the Chi
cago Inter Ocean writes from Minneapo
lis: My business in Minnesota tins sum
mer seems to bo the correction of im
pressions that I recorded in tho Inter
Ocean last su nmcr. At that time I said
Miunesotians nad too much recard for
the truth; that they treasured it so high
ly they always used it in a suporlative
manner. That is, if tbey raise twenty
five bushels of wheat to the acre it would
be false to say they raise bnt fifteen, so,
in order to got as far as possiblo from
falHity, they say fifty bushels is an aver
age yield. I thought at this time this was
evidence of too much uso of truth. I
know better now. That they love truth
dearly is not to be doubted; hut it is bo-
cause they love it so devotedly tliat they
do not intend to wear it out with use.
Truth is tho Minnesotian's priceless
treasuie and I do not blame him for striv
ing to keep it bright by refusing to carry
it with him every day. It is a sort of
ornament which common line might rob
of lmter.
Coming from St. Paul to Minneapolis,
I sat with a healthy-looking man, to
whom I was about to pnt the iptoKlion:
"Are you a resident of this Slate?"
When he said to a pausing gentleman,
"Good morning. How's businetiB?"
I did not ask tho unnecessary ques
tion. Had lie inquired about the gen
tleman's health, I might lmvo hail doubt,
but "business" is the one thing which
Minnosotiaris talk about, and I had my
seat mate located. Yet I did not know
which of the two cities, St. Paul-or Min
neapolis, ho called homo. To Settle this
I asked, which is the larger?
"Why, sir,you can stow away 8t. Paul
in one corner of Minneapolis, and the
street coramishionor wouldn't notice it
until the next census."
Ho is not a resident of St. Paul. If ho
were, Minneapolis would have been de
scribed as a toloarablo ornament for a
St. Paul back yard.
I said, "They make some flour in Min
neapolis, do they not?"
"No. sir. it makes itself. Minnesota
wheat is so full of flour it 70iild ha use-
loss to try to keep It shut up in tlio ker
nel. It is such vigorous ilour it would ect
out on its own hook if it were not taken
out."
"I understand," said I, "that Minoeop-
oli tlonr is sold iu England cheaper than
it U retailed at home. How la that?"
"Clear euougli. air; clear enough," re
plied the healthy-looking Mtuuoootian.
"Yon see our railroads charge for
frcishtiug by the hundred weight. Our
flour it so light that the more they put
on a car the lighter tho load grows. A
cargo ef Minnesota flour goo through
tor nothing, aud is entitled to a draw
back at the other etui of the route. As
for selling cheaper iu Lngland, that is
clear enough; ita buoyancy makes it de
sirable for ship to carry. A shipload
of Minneapolis flour could not sink."
"But if it should get wet?" I sug
gested,
"Tho wetter the bettor. A swamped
ship load of our ilour would aop up the
Atlantic iu two nours, ami lot tuo poopio
walk aero as tho children of Israel
eroancd Iiko Miauctouka when tho hosts
of King I'aro were after them."

being a loafer ever relied how much less
it would cost to be a decent, respectable
man ? Dim; he imagine that loaferisin is
more economical than gentility? Any

niichty cxiiensivo to bo a loafer. It costs
time in the first place, days, week and
