OTTUMWA, IOWA, THURSDAY DECEMBER

"Ahl Genie, darling, you are veritable
witch. Its quite evident that am under the
wand Of an enchantress. Who but you could
have made such a splendid transformation ~
ana the astonished Frank examined with de-
light the old, worn offfce-chair, now glowing
in oriental splendor, with its richly hounced
cover of crimson chintz, set off to the best
advantage by snowy tidy of delicate net
work thrown over the back, while it's capa-
cious depth, stuffed soft and tackled with
bright tufts of worsted, together with the
added castors, made it 'quite model affair
for deserving husbands'-at least this was
Franks decision, as he threw himself int, it,
with such an air of happy abandon that I'M
ogene clapped her hands and burst into one
of those musical peals of laughter, calling
him grand old Turk to which he playfully
added, "that if so, she was certainly bis Sui
tana,' and must share his throne with him ;"
and catching her in his arms he drew her to-
wards him, and thus they sat together in the
big arm. chair, before bright fire, in their
pleasant little sitting-room, all that stormy
winter evening!
With such a help-meet, who coull make
easy chairs out of next to nothing, with her
own skilful hands and bit Of chintz; and
who wrote nice little stories, the proceeds of
which brought them many an ad ed comic
of this, sly little witch as she was,
Frank was kept in utter ignorance,) what
wonder th,t fortune smiled upon the young
husband, and at the end Of three wears he
found himself raised to the office of Junior
partner in the establishment where he had
previously been clerk; and that by the ex-
cellent thrift Of his sweet wife, he also found
himself Impressed by debt, and with means
sufficient, with their present prospects, Of
delightful cottage-home in the
suburbs of the noisy, dusty city.
