THAT HIRED GIRL.


Young Gradden called it a cornet, and it
was made in Vienna. Last summer he
used to get on top of the house and draw
his cornet up by string. Then his solos
would peal out on the midnight air so soft,
so sweet, so enchanting, that the whole
neighborhood on Broadway would put their
night-capped heads out of the windows to
listen, and felt proud OF him II they did not
catch cold. He was very careful with his
cornet-a piston, and always stood 1t on the
bureau with its bell up. The hired girl
brought a pound of lard in a paper from
the grocery, yesterday, and laid 1t on the
bell of the cornet while she stopped down
to tie her shoe But the coffee pot boiled
over In the next room, and she hurried In
lust in time to save it. The lard was warm
and sank down into the cornet to blush I'M
seen and forgotten.
Young Gradden brought the new minis
ter home to dinner, because the latter
wanted to hear him play. And when the
girls in the neighborhood saw the new
minister 90 into Gradients house, each one
went to paw back Mrs. q. the coffee, sugar
and starch they had borrowed, so they
could paw their debts, see the new minister
and hear the cornet. They all seated them
selves in front of him, and he stood up
with his left foot thrown out, his cornet to
mis- mouth, and his fingers sticking up
straight In the air over the keys.
And he said he would plav an air from
La Tyroleau, the first blast OF which awakes
the mountaineer on his native peak at
early dawn. He drew q Il ng breath, dis
tended his cheeks, and then bowling his
head and cornet he threw on e6S pounds OF
wind to the square inch, and blew terrific
blast.
A healthy msjority of that warm lard
hit the new minister square In the face
while the scattering returns flew over the
girls like Kentucky meat shower. The
minister fell over backward in his chair
and as, unfortunately, the front door be
hind him was open, he continued his pill
grimsge down the steps on to the sidewalk
with both feet tied up in the chair. Hi
ewes and side-whiskers were full oil grease
, and he got up and ran for his room, bu
officer Kelley headed him of, and b
broke for Flat creek. The girls went int

e craving.
