at the same time, re-establish her credit
with the grocer and baker, from whom
came the largest portion of the food con-
sumed in her little family.
And now let us follow Mrs. Lee. On
her arrival at home, empty handed, from
her visit TO the shoemaker who owed her
two dollars for work, she found a young
girl, in whose pale face were many marks
OF suffering and care, awaiting her return.
The girls cOuntcnancc frightened as
she came i'll; but there was no answering
brightness in the countenance Of Mrs
Lee, who Immediately said, Il am very
sorry, Harriet, but Mr. Grant put me off
until tomorrow. He said he hadn't dol
lar in the house"
The girls disappointment was very
great for the smile she had forced into life
instantly faded, and was succeeded by a
look of deep distress.
do you want the money very badly?"
asked Mrs. Lee, in low, halfchoked
voice, for the sudden change in the girls
manner had affected +.
"Oh, yes, ma am, very badly. | left

Haven't YOU fircg' asked Mrs Lee in
quick surprised tone.

that wanted the money"
Mrs. Lee struck her hands together,
and an expression Of pain was about pass
ing her lips, when the door of the room
opened, and the shoemaker's boy came in.
Here are two dollars. Mr.. Grant sent
them"
God bless Mr.. Grant" The exclama-
ton from ,Irs Lee was involuntary.
On the part of Harriet, to whom one
dollar was due, gush of silent tears
marked the effect this timely supply of
money produced. She received her por-
ton, and, without trusting her voice with
words, hurried away to supply The pressing
want at home.
4 few doors from the residence OF Mrs.
Lee lived a man who, some few months
before, had become involved in trouble
with an evil disposed person, and been
forced 10 defend himself by means of the
law. He had employed Mr.. HerriOt 10 do
what was requisite in the case, for which
service the charge was five dollars. The
bill had been rendered few days before,
and the man, who was Door, fell very anxious
to pay il. lie had the money ali made up to
within dollar. That dollar sirs. Lee
owed him, and she had promised TO give
it to him during this day For hours he
had waited, expecting her to come in; but
now had nearly given her up. There was
another little bill of three dollars which
had been sent in to him. and he had just
concluded to go and pay that, when Mrs.
Lee called with the balance of the money,
one dollar, which she had received from
the shoemaker. Grant.
Half an hour later, and the pocket-book
of Mr.. Ecrriot was no longer empty. His
client had called and paid his bill. The
five dollars had come back to him.

TIRE AGER.'

ONCE upon an evening bleary,
While I sat me dreaming dreary,
In The sunshine, thinking DER
Things that passed in days OF yore;
niie nodded, nearly sleeping,
Geafiy came il something creeping,
Creeping upward from the ioor.
Ills a cooling breeze" muttered,
From the regions meath the floor;
Only this, and nothing more"
All distinctly remember
IL was in that wet September,
When the earth and every member
Or creation that bore,
Had for weeks and months been soaking
In the meahesr, most provoking
fo@gy rain that, without joking,
we had ever seen before.
So knew il must be very
Cold ana damp beneath the floor
Very cold beneath the floor.
So sat me, nearly mapping,
The sunshine, stretching, gaping,
And u feeling quite delighted
With the breeze frcm meath the foor,
Till felt me -.rOwIn9 Colder.
And the stretching waxing holder,
And my self now ceiling Older,
Older than felt before.
Feeliur that my joints were sitter
Tnan shey were il days of yOre-
stider than they'd been before.
All along my back the creeping
Seon gave place 10 rushing, leapins,
a. II countless frozen demons
Had concl lded 10 explore
Ali the aSitles-the varmiuts-
'Twixt me and my netaer garments,
Through my boots into the floor;
Then found myself a-shaking-
Gently shaking more aud more
every mOmeut more and more.
Twas the Ague. and il shook me
litO heavy clothes. AID took me
8 iaking TO the kitchen-every
Every place where there was warmth in store
,tNiii.s tilt the China ratified,
Shaking till my mol RS chat e.eG;
SllSkln-, and with all Ing warming,
Feeling colder than before;
Shaking Till IL had exhausted
All it. powers 10 shake me more
I'LL II could not shalSe NE more.
Then il rested till the morrow,
When it came with all tie horror
That IL had the face To borrow,
SlaAiag, shaSins a. before,
And From that day In September
Day which l shall long remember
III has made diarnal visits;
Shaking, shaking, OH. 50 sOrel
Shaking oil my boots, and shaking
Me 10 bed, if nothing more;
dlly this, if nothing more
And to-day the swallows fitting
Round my cottage see me sittiD.
Moodily within the sunshine

Waning for the Ague, seeming
Like mau forever dreaming,
And the sunlight on me streaming,
Sheds no shadows on the floor,
