A MATTER OF BUSINESS.

Is it anybody's business. when young man
goes to call,
II he enters ut the kitchen or the parlor Or
the hall?
Is it anybody's business, but the girl he goes
TO see,
What that young mans name and STALLION
may happen to be?
Is it anybody's business II he stays till It is
late?
Or anybody's business II she follows to the
gate?
II he kisses her at parting and she does not
seem 10 grieve,
Is 1t anybody's business save the mans who
takes his leave?
If he comes to take her walking on pleas
ant afternoon.
Is 1t anybody's business that they do not
come back soon?
II by chance they come together upon the
public street,
Is it anybody's business If she bushes when
they meetP
If he goes to see her Sundays and often stays
TO tea,
Is it anybody's business what his business
there may be?
Is it anybody's business what sort OF Il beau
she's got?
Or anybody's business il she loves him or
docs not?
Is 1t anybody's business? would really like
to know
If it's not. Pm sure they're many who try to
make II so.

Yes; and l think It Is rightfully,

the case your own. Suppose your father
had left fortune, and had wIllel II away

Three months afterwards John
received Dispatch from lawyer Hatch
which caused him to take second
journey. The advertisement had been
answered by a woman who proved her
self to be the missing daughter of Grand
father Dill beyond Y doubt.
She was poor widow. and supported
herself and little boy BY coarse sewing.
a wretched support it afforded her, and
she was found living in a tenement attic,
with health and spirits broken by mis-.
fortune.
She said, that She had long since
repented her folly in leaving her father,
and had once gone back to her early
home to be reconcilei TO him, but the
place was then IN the hands Of strangers.
After that she had beer unable to learn
anything of him, and had believed him
long since dead. Such was the story
John brought home to his wife.
"Im sure 1t was providence that
lei me to run against Grandfather Dill
that stormy night" said John; "but for
that his daughter would surely have
died of her hardships, and the poor little
boy would have been left TO charity.
which was what she most dreaded. But
then l suppose there's providence in
everything"
Hes the stangest man ever saw"
said Lawyer Hatch, speaking of John.
HE took as much pains to hunt up an
heir to the old man, and to give her the
money that was willcl to him, as any
body else would to have kept ono ont OF
the way"
II declare, he's bigger fool than l
took him to be!' said Hans Schneider:
land that's saying 4 good deal.
Perhaps some of my readers will agree
with Hans; but many, 1 know, will
think as do, that John was all uncon-
scious hero.

JOHN RACHET'S FORTUNE.
BY RUTH CHESTERFIELD.


1t was a cold November evening. The
clouds which had been all day black and
threatening were now beginning to send
their snowfakes through the air, and
John Ratchet was hurrying home to
his supper at a headlonS pace. John
worked in Mr.. Armstrong; great iron
foundry,-at low wages, it is true, but,
as John said, "a little is better than
nothing"
There hal been strike among the
foundry hands, but John took no part
in it; he kept steadily on at his work,
and tried to persuade others to do the
same.
"Times are hard, "hc said, "but what S
the uso Of making them worse?" And
that day when the strikers came in a
body, led by Hans Schneider, and at
tempted to stop the works, John said,
"There'll be bloodshed first"
And his former comrades, knowing
him for a resolnte fellow, after some
parleying, concluded to depart, but
threatened to return another day with
arms in their hands.
VERY we'll" said John, ''we'll be
ready for YOU" They never came, how
ever.
But, as | was saying, John was hur-
rying along home at the top of his
speed, looking neither to the right nor
the left, so that he would not have seen
the oil man leaning against lamp-post
if he had not first run plump against
him, and nearly knocked him over.
"Hallo!-beg pardon! All right now,
grandfather" he exclaimed, as with
one strong arm he restored the old man
to his centre Of gravity.
MY stars thought You'd finished
me-" gasped the old man, embracing
the lamp-post.
II came pretty near it, that's fact" "
said John. But seems to me you
shouldn't be out such night as this
your folks ought to take better care OF
YOU"
Il haven't any folks" said the old
man.
"Well, you'd better be at home, any
way"
That's easy said; but haven't any
home either"
"Where are you bound then, grand
father? If your lodgings are near by I'll
help you there, for you appear to be
about used up"
$50 am; but havcn'ta place to lay
my head unless you take pity on me.'
John hesitated. A strange vagrant
wasn't just the most desirable guest, but
he was evidently old and feeble, and
Johns kind heart was touched; so he
said, "Well, come along with me. I'll
give you a nights lodging, and to-mor-
row I'll see what can be done"
The old man needed no second invita-
tion, and in a few minutes the two
reached Johns house. No sooner had
he opened the door than five children
and dog rushed to greet him, while his
wife, an easy, roly-poley little woman,
exclaimed, why, John, what makes
you so late? Supper's been ready to go
on the table these fifteen minutes; the
mullins won't be fit to eat"
"Ill risk EN-" said John, laughing,
'See here, Debby, I've brought some
company home to supper, l found this
old gentleman out in the storm, with
no better place TO bring up at than the

Much excitement has been made by
reports recently published on the vile
condition of the slums of London. In
one cellar was found a family consisting
of man sick with the smallpox, his
dying wife, three half-naked and dirty
children, and one pig. In some parts
there is one gin-mill to every hundred
persons. What defilement? Yet cor
