A story of Real Life,

A little girl, whom people may have
observed selling violets around the New
York Hotel, offered bunch the other day
TO a gentleman and lady who were staying
at that establishment, as they were return
ing from walk.
'.Please buy my violets, sir?" said the
little one, holding up purple bunch
that still seemed to have the dew upon
it.
''Please buy my violets- only slxpence
a bunch"
mo: 90 away, Child" said the lady
rather harshly, II don't want them"
any DEAR" remarked the gentleman,
mildly, "you have spoke rather harshly to
the poor girl, see her eyes are filled with
tears"
The lady looked around. The little Vi
olet girl, whose eyes were as the flowers
she sold, was weeping silently. In an IN
slant Mrs. Us warm southern nature gush-
ed ont. and turning back she clasped the
moor child in her arms and endeavored to
assuage her grief.
allow very, very like our poor AL
fred this child is," said Mrs. Y, looking
attentively in the face of the violet girl
Alfred was their only son, who had come
to New York some five or six years ago,
and where he had died from the effects OF
dissipation.
Mr.. Y. attracted by his wife's exclama-
ton, examined the child attentiveiy.
"There is a strong likeness ne repli-
ed.
They questioned her. She had little
to tell. Her mother and father were both
dead. What was her name? She was
not certain but her fathers name was "
1t was enough. The old lady and gentle
man took the child between them in the
carriage, aud straightway drove to the
house of her grandmother with whom she
said she lived. There they discovered
that their son had really been married
some time before his death, to pretty
sewing girl who did not survive him, and
who died leaving behind this one child. Mr..
and Mrs. Y. were rich and childless. This
little creature, ragged and uneducated, was
more welcome to them than fortune.-
She was instantly washed and dressed and
teachers had for her. Her fortune chang
ed as the season changed. 1t had been
winter with her long time and it was now
May.
