crept across the street one evening in
the dusk, and ran up to the 'wash-
lady'sn room to ask her humbly for the
loan of her little child. Trapped on the
door and it was opened quickly by the
little woman in black, the seamstress,
as l supposed.
"Oh!" / said, rather confusedly, al

"Come in," said the little woman;
"you have been very kind to notice her
so much, and she has grown really fond
of you; come here, Mabel"

"Washwoman! Yes, do not be
afraid to say it; you see am not" and
she laughed, rather sadly, l thought.
| hid my confused face over Mabel,
who was easily persuaded to sit in my
lap. She was lovely child, but so del.
icate, so frail, that the blue veins could
be traced on her temples and hands
with threatening distinctness, and she
was as light as bird. So this was the
woman, whose society | had disdained,
this gentle, patient, lady-like, almost
girliSh woman but then, how could she
washP such hard, disagreeable work.
Later, she told me that it was all she
could do.
Il dare say our minister has told
you," she said, "that was the young
est child of a Southern clergyman, and
brought up to do nothing and know
nothing useful. Look at these hands

fine starching and ironing, and we hired

winter of servitude was the happiest Of
my life. In the spring l was offered q
position as organist, not pecuniary
emolument, but better than ironing, but
would not dissolve partnership with
my wash lady, and one day we were
both in the suds when brother Tom
came hurrahing in, having left his own
drudgery and travelled night and day to
bring the good news that we had won
the estate! And how we laughed over
the rest of the wash, and made the
handsome Tom hang out the clothes.

Rather Enthusiastic,

The Wilmington (Del) Daily Republican
lately contained the following item of popular
interest; DR.. j. +. Speck, who is connected
with the Wilmington Every Evening, speaks
rather enthusiastically of St. Jacobs OIL Dr.
Speck states that he uses the Oil in his family
as a household remedy, sort Of universal
panacea for all aches and palms, and has al
ways found it to act most happily His atten-
ton was called to it by the many testimonials
in its favor, and he one day used 1t upon him
self for sore throat. Two applications were
sufficient to effect a cure. He also used 1t on
his little girl for sore throat with gratifying
success. The same child had scarlet fever this
winter which left the tendons Of one leg much
contracted. The little prattler couldn't walk
without assistance and suffered much incon-
venience and pain. Several applications Of
st. Jacobs Oil restored her limb to its normal
condition and she has not experienced any
trouble since. DR.. speck states that he has
also seen the OIL act charmingly in toothache
He thinks St. Jacobs Oil is a sterling remedy,
and does not hesitate to recommend 1t for
rheumatism, etc.
