The Laborer Ik Worlliy of His Hire Vain Sisters Outdone by a Sensible Girl. It's no use: I've worn all the cast off clotbes I'm going to." There was no sign of irritation 01 ill nature in the girl's bright face as she made tills asteition. Shu s-at in the center of a heap of discarded finery. There were frayed and spotted velvet skirts, satin and silK waists, strained outund threadluro in almost every seam, flounced and bedraggled gros grains and liuii'b veilings, crumpled ribbons and torn laces. "What do you propose to wear?" Florence Annabel's only compan ion on this occasion was her mar ried sister, -Mrs. Paul Grenman, in whoso pretty ears sparkled valuable solitaires, and whoso lingers were crowded with costly jewels. Mrs. Grcuman's tone was cold, and the smile on her faultless lips was al most a sneer. "I don't mean anything unkind, Julia," Miss Amiable replied, "but tho truth is, I am not comfortable in second hand clothing." "Blanche would be edified at your remarks, Florence," said Mrs. Gren man; "it was no easy task to get theso things together," she added, with Increased hauteur. "You know very well that my maid expects every garment I discard, and so does Blanche's." Notwithstanding her protest, the young lady had selected the least injured of tho velvet skirts and had begun to rip oil' the braid. But she throw down her scissors now and stepped out of tho debris. "That settles it, Julia," she said, with shining eyes, but with no other Indication of excitement. "I will sort those rags and jags nnd velvet gowns into bundles, and you and Blanche need not disappoint your maids." "What stupidity, Florence!" Mrs. Grenman hastened to say. "You know that wo want you to have our things. You havo made lovely cos tumes many times out of poorer ma terial than that Is there." The lady's touo was a little more conciliatory. She evidently had sonio reason for not wanting her sister to carry out her threat. "These things are much more suit able for your maid than for your sister, Julia, rt Miss Amiable replied, as she set about her task. "Perhaps you think that your sis ters should keep you supplied with new clothes?" said Mrs. Grenman. "No, 1 do not; but I will tell you what 1 do think," Miss Amiable re sponded, with heightened color, hut Infirm, cool tones. "I think that you and Blanche ought to be willing that I should earn my wardrobe." "Earn It?" said Mrs. Grenman, feslonnl pianist will charge (or play ing the piano the same number of hours that I do," Miss Amiable began again, calmly. "Then, not being a professional, T will play for you nnd Blanche for just half that nniount." Mrs. Grenman rose, picked off a few bits of the thread from her handsome black silk dress she had been darning a tiny bit of lace and proceeded to array herself Tor the street. The room in which this conver sation took place was the fourth story back of a so-called fashionable boarding house, and this was Florence Annable's home. Her father and mother were both dead, the former having survived the wreck of a large fortune only a few weeks. When the estate was set tled It was found that there would be enough monov to provide Florence, theonly unmartied daugh ter, with the necessaries of life. Tn other words, it would pay her board. 'So, for two years or more, she had been dependent upon her wealthy sisters for her wardrobe. It was a disagreeable position for a sensitive and high minded girl, and it had come at last to be uueudtuable. "Florence!" Mrs. Grenman was ready to go. "Well," said her companion. "I shall repeat this conversation to Paul. I tell you, thnt vou may be prepared to meet the consequences." "I am prepared for anything but 'rags and jags,' Julia," her sister re plied; "and I beg you to believe that I should not have remade your east oil garments so long if it had not been for keeping the peace. Let me till you what else I am willing to do. You say that somo of the iMStumes I have made from the dresbed you have finished wealing linve been very prettv and stylish. T will hold myself ready to make over the best of them for you to wear again, and I will do it in my best manner." "And be paid lor it?" "Certainly!- like nny other dress mnkes." "If you were not a perfect simple ton you would marry Luke Hark ness," Mrs. Grenman burst out anew. "Then you would have an tllsdalnfully. "What now and ubonmlablo crochet have you got In to your head now? Something to disgrace us all, I suppose." "If you and Blanche would pay mo In hard cash, as you would be compelled to pay a professional, for playing tho piano at your luncheon parties and your kettledrums, your receptions and your informal eve ning gat hei lugs, I count buy my own clothes, an 1 be much better satisfied." Mrs. Grenumn'ri astonishment ami Indignation were overwlielniinir. "Who ever thought that one of our family could be so coarse and mercenary? Pay one's own sister establishment equal to your sisters', and there wouldn't be such n horri iuequality in our stations as now. "I marry Luko Harkncss?" said Miss Annable, with the first touch of haughtiness she had shown. "A man old enough to be my grand father, as deaf as u post and as bald as an ancient American eagle? 1 would go out as a cook or house maid first. Yes, Julia, if the choice were given mo of marrying that man or digging my own grave, with the understanding that I was to jump into it when completed, I would choose tho latter alternative witli gratitude." "And you wish me to undersrasid that you will not play for one of my parties ngaiti unless you are paid for it?" Mrs Grenman's hand was on the knob of the door as she asked this question. "l wish you" to understand that I do not regard your old velvet nnd silk gowns ii3 a fair equivalent for my services as chief musician," said Amiable. "And also, that I not only believe with tho Bible that 'the laborer is worthy of his hhe,' but that labor is eminently respect able." The departing guest's twist of the door knob was nothing less than vicious. Florence, who knew her sister perfectly well, understood that the breach between them now would bo hard to bridge. Work was a degradation in the opinion of her own near relatives. But It was not so for her. There were two ways in which she knew she could earn a generous support. One was by her musical talent, ami tho other by her tasto and ability in designing costumes. "It is wicked to keep you at tho piano, Miss Annable, when wo all know you are so foud of dancing, but no one plays as you do," her friends were constantly saying. Now why, sho asked herself, with tills available talent in her possess ion, should sho not earn some money, and in a businesslike and "opon nnd above board" man nor, ns men termed it? Miss Auuaiilo was unablo toseo why she should bo Idle nnd wear her sisters cast oil clothes any more than tho man who had a room aeros the corrlder should be Idle and wear his rich brother's "nigs and Jngn." This question of the utlll.ation of talent had been logically met nnd set tled n good whllo before, but the way of putting her theories Into for playing n few sonatas and quad- practice bad been hard to overcome. rills ouco In a while! Why don't Her bisters had aimed high nnd you ask us to pay you for condescend ing to nttund our kettledrums and recoptlons? Indeed, Florence, If 1 must say It. 1 think you have been ceedltigly peculiar, and could not be induced to make a homo with either of her relatives, were In main true. Miss Annable could have made her self uscfull in either of theso estab lishments, but her liberty was far too precious to jeopardize by any such arrangement. Here in the sky parlor certain hours of each day were her own, her very own. A few hours later MIks Annable was driving in the park with some friends. She pissed both of her slstcis, nnd their recognition, though cnlculated to deceive her compan ions, was well understood by her. Julia had communicated with Blanche, and they had both shown their displeasure in as marked a manner ns tho circumstances would permit. This recalcitrant member of their in Istocrntie family was to be brought to terms. Florence An nable smiled as she thought of it. Clarke Durivage rouV along by the side of the landau, and chut ted with the young ladies. For tho first time since Florence had deeideil not to wear any more "cast ofis" her courage failed her. She felt It to a humiliating truth tli.it she carul more for this man's good opinion th.iM for anything else in tho world; to think that she was quite inde pendent of remaik or criticism Iiom any other quarter, but not from him, filled her wltii confusion and alarm. Mr. Duvirage had been the only man she had met in society who had talked to her as If she were possessed of an equal intelligence. Miss Annable canvassed the sub ject thoroughly in thc-e A'W min utes. Her bcorn of her o n weak ness, us shown by the DiOhcnce of this man, acted like a spur to her concience. "The die is cast," she told herself, Mr. Durivage bade her gonr'i even ing. "I will not wear jiiis, and so must play jigs." The young lady did not estimate her musical talent at its line value. It was almost a caso of (iuiiii!-. She could play the woiks, of the most favored composer, and with a power and expression which delighted tin most cilticai. And to it come to pass that Miss Florence Annable wns enjaged at icgiilar professional prices to play for a party at the house of the wealthy and distinguished Mrs. Van Cortland. Her sisters were both present, but neither of them came near her during the evening, and in I his way the world found out there had been a qtinriel. "Good evening, Miss Florence." "Good evening, Mr. Durivage." "It is rathor singular there is no one here to play but you," tho gen tleman remarked. "I have been wuitiug a half hour to invite you to dance." "It Is not in the least singular, Mr. Durivage," said the musician, smiling heroically, "for I uui regu larly employed to play for Mrs. Van Cortland's guests this evening." The plunge was made, the worst was over, and Florence felt that she Could look hciself squarely In tho faco when the evening was over. "And you you have struck out in this way for yourself?" There was a strango quality in the gentleman's voice thnt his com pa u ion did not understand. "Struck out?" MUs Annable laughingly answeied. "That's o good phrase. It requites muscle, I assure you." "But your sisters, Miss Florence?" "They aro here. You must have seen them. The next piece is a quadillle, Mr. Durivage. Please listen to it critically. It is my own composition." The niusio was u success. The ap plause and excitement that followed Its conclusion amounted to an ova tion. Mr. Durivage drew near the piano and lead the title. "Ladles and gentlemen," he said, In loud, clear tones, the name of tho oilglnal quadrille which has so de lighted us is 'Bags and Jags and Velvet Gowns." There came a time when Florence Amiable could tell her friend, Mr. Durivage, the whole story, and the following is the substance of his reply: "I detei mined," lie said, "to woo and win you that night at Mrs. Van Cortland's. I had cared for you from the first day of our ac quaintance, but how could I help feeling that you might he like your sisters ultra fashionable, purse proud, regardful of only appearan ces. What 'kind of helpmeets would your sisters make if misfortune should overtake their husbands? And then, Florence, I have always maintained that It was Just as rep rehensible for a woman to bo hlie nnd dependent as for n man.
