Josh Wink, In Baltimore American. A Cluster of Violet vv By ELLA S. WXTIURXLL. LAURENCE MAYHEW was the quietest of all the traveling man connected with the firm of Knight, Powers 4 Co. the most prosaic, un sentimental, matter-of-fact fellow one would find in a month's search. So when Horace Worth, another drummer for the same house one raw, chilly day in March, chanced to step into FranU Karter'a, the florist's, just in time to hear Mr. Mayhew say: "Now, Mr. Karter, do not fail to get the violets off by to-day's express. Same address aa usual, you have it, I suppose. And here, put this card in the box; my train leaves in 15 min utes, or I would stay until you got them packed," and when Worth acci dentally saw that the card bore the Inscription: "To my darling, with a heart's best love Laurence," to put It mildly, he was astonished. "Hello, old fellow," said he, "send ing violets to your best girl, eh?" "Yes, I thought they would surely be appreciated such a dismal day as this." "Well, you ars the last man I would ever suspect of being guilty of falling In love; a confirmed old bachelor like you, with plenty of gray hairs. Hut they say when a man of 40 or over does get hit with Cupid's arrow he la hit hard." "At any rate," laughed Mayhew, "In thia liiHtnnee I eonfesa It la true, I am 'hit hard,' aa you say, and my 'best girl' is the dearest girl on earth," and he hastened away to the depot, where his sample case had preceded him. Worth had only entered the employ of Knight, Towers A Co. six months before, but during the time he hud met Mnyhew several times and had liked him from the first, mentally dubbing him a good fellow, with a keen sense of humor, ready to take or give a joke in his quiet way, but seldom entering into the story-telling of his brother knights of the grip, when as wns (K't-nximiully the ruse some of them met nt the end of their several trips; unil he hnd never been heard to bonxt of the pretty girls he had met, nr flirted with, as some of the others were wont to do. So the above incident impressed itself upon the memory of Horace Worth, who, although u voluble, easy-going man, was kind hearted almost to a fault, and poNxuesed of a strict aense of honor. Two months later Mr. Worth hap pened to be spending Sunday nt a amall town some 50 miles out from the city. Saturday evening the la dies of one of the churches were serving Ice cream and strnwlirrries in a hull nenr the hotel where Worth was stopping, and to while away an idle hour us much us to help in a good cause, he strolled In about nine o'clock, and took a seat at one of the tuliles. A bright little woman came forward to serve him, and he Inst inctively notedherplain.liut attractive face, lit up by large gray eyes, and crowned with a wealth of hnir, once dark brown, but now thickly threaded with silver. 'Hie rush of the earlier part of the evening being over, he was the only one at that table, while disposing of the daintily served re freshments the little woman brought in response to his mpicst; so, seeing that he was u stranger in town, niul seemed to know no one, she renin hied by the table pleasantly chatting in a manner that showed her to be a Indy ill every aense of the word. Soon some one culled, "Oh, Mrs. Mayhew. please rouie here a minute," and saying "Kiouse me," she has tened away. r'ive minutes later she returned, Mr. Worth not jet having paid for his refreshments. As he handed her the amount lie said: "1'ardon me, but 1 heard your name called, and It is a familiar one to me, as another trav eling man with the firm I represent l,er Mr 1 rno Mayhew. la he a relative of vours Quickly smiling, she said: "Oh, do you know Laurence? Why, he ia my husband. I am glad, sir to meet a friend of his; may I ask your name?" "Horace Worth, at your service," replied he, bowing, "but you surprise me. 1 diil not know that Mr. Mayhew had married; may I inquire how long aince the happy event took ulnce?" ROGUE RIVER COURIER, GRANTS "Did not know that Laurence was married? That Is strange," laughed aba; "yet perhaps not strange), either, for he la bo reticent regarding hia own affaire. Why, we have been mar ried IS years, though were It not for my son and daughter, both of whom will soon be as tall aa I am, 1 could hardly realize It had been so long by half," and again she laughed mer rily. It was with difficulty that Horace restrained hia astonishment, and as the scene t the florist's two months before flashed across his mind, hia In dignation knew no bounds. Hut by .(Tort he quietly made a few more n . , . . . commonplace remarks, bade her good night and returned to the hotel. , "The scoundrel!" thought he, "to ' be untrue to such a fine little woman aa that, and the mother of hia chil dren, too, juat because he haa been at tracted by the pretty face of some young girl, while his wife's hair la gray, like his own! I feel like shoot ing him!" He sought his room and bed, but it was nearly dawn before sleep visited hia eyelids, ao wrought up was he I over hia discovery of the evening. He felt he ought to warn her, the poor little, unsuspecting, wronged wife, and yet he dreaded to be the execu tioner of the love and trust with which her face waa radiant while apeaking of her husband. At length he dropped into a troubled sleep, to dream that Mrs. Mayhew, pale-faced and wan, stood by his side piteously saying: "Oh, why didn't you tell me? If you had it might have been in time for me to have led him back out of the snares that wicked girl laid for him. And now he is gone, gone, and my heart la broken!" Late In the morning he ' awoke, more Impressed than ever that it was his duty to warn the wunged wife, disagreeable though it might be. So he secured writing materinl, and after destroying sheet after sheet of paper, he Anally composed a note in which he told her, In as gentle a man ner aa possible, of the episode at the florist's, and closed by begging her not to think ill of him for being the bearer of such news, as he very greatly regretted the necessity he felt he was under to warn her, and expresssing the hope that with her knowledge of the affair, an influence might be brought to bear that would counteract any evil toile into which bar husband had probably uncon sciouslyfallen, and that happiness might once again be hers. This note he dispatched by the bell boy, about the time he judged she might have returned from church. A half hour later a white Inclosure was handed in at his door. He tore it open and read: "Mr. Horace Worth Dear Blr: To say that I wss amssed st tht contents of your nott falls fur snort of expressing my feel ings. If not seklng too much of you. will you pleise call at my home at four o'clock this afternoon? I appreciate your Intended klndnw 1 reserve all else to say to you In person. Sincerely yours. "AGATHA MAYHEW." The writing showed signs of agita tion, and It was with quickly benting heart that Mr. Worth presented him self at Mrs. Mayliew s door, nt the appointed hour. He was admitted by the maid and shown Into the parlor, where he was at once joined by Mrs. Mnyhew. The pallid face and swollen eyes, for which he wns prepared, were absent. Instead she greeted him with smiling countenance. "Mr. Worth," said she, "I sent for you, not - as you probably supposed to question you farther concerning my dear husband, but to free V"nr mind from the unjust charges w'hieh I give you the credit of honestly be lieving. At llrst I was ungry over your intimation, hut I believe you to be n gentleman, and that yon took the course tlwit you fn.m (.ise of duty. Fifteen years ago the 2()th of lust March we were married. On that never to-be forpot ten day, I wore a bunch of violets, and the tuble where the simple luncheon wns spread was decorated with the same. Since thnt dny, the 20th of March has never failed to bring from my dear, thoughtful husband, n fragrant cluster of violets; and two months ago, ns usual, when he is absent nt that time, there came by express a box of the sweet Mowers, containing thia enrd," and she held out the well remembered bit of bristol bonrd. on which was written, "To my dnrlinir, with a heart's best love-Laurence." "The next mail," continued ,e, "brought his usual daily letter, in which he told the joke of your sup posing he was n bachelor, 'how you asked if he wns sending flowers' to his best girl, mid of his reply. That in just like Laurence, to have a little quiet fun at your expense, by never correcting your erroneous supposi tion. I hope yon will forgive him for it, just u I have forgiven yon for your slanderous tho.-'its of mv hiisbiinil." and she: smilingly ex tended her I'.iind. Just how Mr. Worth mannced to take her hand and bow over it, stam mer out his sincere apologies, and get out into the street, he never could clearly remember. Hut it is a fact that when he finally found ref uge in his room at the hotel, he feel ingly remarked to himself: "I wish I had three feet, so I eouni stand on two of them, and wk mjHelt with u,, other!"-Lum- ber Iteview.
