He had been very kind and solicitous
for several days, and at breakfast yester.
day morning he suddenly remarked:
Ny dear, you don't know how bad II
makes mo feel to see you look so thin
and careworn."

"You must have lost at least five pounds
this MONTH"
II presume So"
"And that haggard expression shows
overwork and need of rest"
"Yes."
"Dear me! but could never forgive
myself If you should go into Decline"
"See here, Henry" she replied, as she
laid down her fork and looked him
square in the eye, you want to drop
that. If you think you can pack me of
to tho country for Il month and leave you
to gallop around here. you have got hold
of the wrong end Of the string"
He sighed heavily, but made no reply,
and yet as he stood on the corner waiting
for the car, and Smith asked him how his
wife was, he answered:
picking right up, thank you. She's
gaining n pound week right along and
was never in better spirits"

Helping n Millionaire.

Chdmbasbur0 journal.
Geyer Scheiblo Of this place was an In
dentured apprentice TO tailor In Phila-
delphia many years ago, and was commits
stoned by his employer on one occasion to
deliver suit of clothes to customer re-
siding some distance beyond the city lin
its. As he trudgod along with his package
he heard the rumbling Of wheels and
waited hoping TO got u ride. Just as the
buggy came up to him tho right hand
wheel ran of tho spindle, and quick as
thought, Stephen Girard sprang from his
vehicle and his gray horse instantly
stopped, although unbiddon to do SO by
his owner. Tho Frenchman with his
single eye took hasty survey Of tho
situation, and, seeing Scheiblc, ordered
him to go to farm house half n mile
distant and procure piece of rope.
Scheible got what was wanted, felicitat-
ing himself that he would be handsomely
rewarded by the millionaire banker for
the timely aid no was rendering him.
When Schedule delivered tho rope to
Girard the latter ordering him TO get q
rail from tho fence, and the two, together
with the help Of the rope, attached tho
piece Of timber to the front axle Of tho
buggy In such q manner as to maintain
the equilibrium of the body, and before
Scheible had time to say Jack Robinson"
Girard resumed his seat, spoke some
cabalstic words to his old horse, which
went off like dart, and the tailor's APP
prentic was not as much a. thanked for
what he had done.
Sobeible retains vivid recollection of
Girard's presence, which he says was
anything but agreeable. His face was
furrowed with hard lines, and when he
looked at Won out of his only eve the
expression was that of q basilisk. The
entire front Of his clothing, from his chin
downward, appeared ss but freshly soak ed
In snuff, which he chcwed necessarily.
The wonder grew until his death, in 1889,
how so small man could consume as
much snuff as GiraId did and it not kill
him
