How It Happened.

The other day a pair of youngsters of
the american breed" we're overheard con-
versing about a ''knOck down and drag out''
in which one of them had INDUCED with a
companion who answered to the hail of
William.
"I'll tell you how it was,'' said the par
ty of the second part to his friend, "you
see Bill and me went down to the wharf to
fish, but we didn't catch any got one
bite, and bill told me to scratch but didn't.
Well, felt in my pocket aud found my
knife, and it was gone and 1 said Bill,
you stole my knife; and be said I was an-
other and said go there yourself; and
he said it was no such thing and l said
he was a liar, and could whip him if was
bigger'n him and he said he'd rock me
to sleep, mother; and said he was big
ger one and he said never had the mea-
ses and said for him to fork over that
knife and he said be couldn't see the
fork and l said I'd FIX him for a tomb
stone aud he said my grandmother was
no gentleman and l said be dersen't take
it up but he did you bet you never-Well
you never did s; then l got up again, and
said be was too much afraid 70 do it again;
and he tried too, but he didn't and I
grabbed him aud throwed him down on the
top of me like several bricks; and tell
you it beat ali-and so did he; and my
little dog got behind Bill and bit him !;
ard Bill kicked at the dog, and the dog
ran. and run after the dog to fetch him

but then every thing seems easy to mamma.
Lucy had become fashionable, proud wO-
man and although she had not forgotten,
she had outlived her sisterly feeling, and
was in no haste to recognize Margie.
But she was touched by the recital of
Margie's fsitnfulness, and came to see her
at our house. Mamma would not allow
any of US to be present at the interview,
but am sure it was an affecting one, for
mamma cannot allude to it without weep
ing, to this day.
As for Margie, she seemed changed into
bird-she futtered and carroled around
the house as if she had wings. Her oval,
honest, intelligent face, now that the shad-
ow had fallen from it, was really beautiful;
and when her lips parted with smiles, We
discovered her teeth to be as even and
white as pearls.
"Really," said mamma in kind 81

One night as Margie let down her darE

ably, and rolled some tresses over our I'm
