unlike any have seen North, though saw

double two-story frame, about forty feet
front, wit hout cellar, and there was wagon
drive right through the middle of it. 1t had
| windows, but no doors either front or back |;
but on either side of the wagon-drive were
doors leading into the respective apartments.
Mr.. Mack's few remaining yaluables were

troops and train would move at B a. III.
MY COMFORTABLE BEDROOM.
1t was not until the family had babe me
| good night and retired to the other side of
the house, that noticed there was no door
| TO my room. The opening was there but
| the door had never been hung, ana anyone
could step from the covered wagon-drive
right into the room. For moment i wished
l had my revolver; but when | came to
| think that was surrounded by Union SOL
| diers, the wish vanished and resolved to
have good nights rest taxi ing the precau-
ton to place three chairs, turned over on
their side, one above the other, in the open
doorway, so that IL any foragers should
| happen To come around they could not get
in without making noise that would be
| apt To hear.
4 had not slept in bed for long, long
iime-a year or more. l pulled oil my coat
aud boots only, and tumbled in. How l
| did revel In that bed ! stretched my arms
apart and clasped the rails on either side
| What luxury compared with sleeping in a
wagon, or under y wagon, or on the lid OF d
| mess-chest, or on two rails, or on the frozen
or muddy ground, as i, in common with
hundreds of thousands OF others had 80 often
| done! And there was pillow on the beds
feather pillow! was so delighted with my
quarters, that could not get to sleep for 4
long time. / crawled all over the bed, SC
| that might enjoy every square inch OF it
ana fancy carried me to even better bee
that awaited me at home, which l would
reach in a very few days And in thi
bissful frame OF mind fell asleep.
And slept tsoundly-and long.
l was awakened by the clatter of hoofs, a
a horseman galloped down the lane an'
reined up his horse in the wagon-drve
almost al the doorway OF my room.
A PRAIsEwoRTHy LIE.
"Wasn't there Yankee officer stoppe
here last nght9" said the horseman, sharply
There was momentary pause, and then
heard Mr.. Mack say, very slowly, and as
he would rather not say 1t,
"Yes, sir, there was, and -"
"Ses, there were several of them here,
chimed in one of the daughters interruptin
her father, "bat they have done gone !; the
went OIL with the other soldiers at o'clocl
towards Chattanooga"
l had crept noislessly out of bed, IL
moment the horseman had reined in h
sieed. lnstinctively believed him to be .
enemy, and was convinced OF it when hear

it is just the other way. Recently

ii. Heverin, and prattled delightfully."-
of her career on the stage and of society.
| She has been having an awful time with
| new pet that she and her mamma have been
trying to domesticats in their New jersey
cottage. The pet is spider monkey sent
! to Letta from Brazil. 1t was very young
and tender. and, of course, fell i'll. Lolita
nursed it and that spoiled it, for the willy

! since to be nursed.
''Bnt monkeys" the little coincidence
ratified on, ''aren't as bad as lunatics!
Lunatics are the bane of my existence.
Mamma says I attract lunaticS wonder

was a man out in California who said he
was my husband and we had three chill
dren. We had to have him put
into Jail. Only day before yes
terdaY we got letter from a
crazy man who has been writing to me reg
ulary for ten years! never answered his
| letters, but you wouldn't believe it if you
saw what he writes. The funniest thing
about it all is that he must be very rich and
constantly travelling around the world. l
have received letters from him postmarked
everywhere. one remember from Buenos

ent. When we were in England he fol-
lowed us there. and sent lady to see me.

l noticed strengthening man. with
big SLOUGH hat, fishing in the lake. Two
or three hours afterward boy came to our
house with a little bit of fish that, he
said, the queer man on the lake had sent
to me. l expect that the man was my
lunatic. There is another man in Boston
who is all the time writing me that he is
Napoleon and am Josephine. He gave
me rest for about six months and just as l
had about forgotten him received another

washington Critic.
Mr.. Topnoody sat with his wife by theil
reading table, the other night. in reflective
silence, with book lying open and useless
before him, and Mrs. T. was busy with a
piece of that restful kind of needlework all
women resort to as a physical and mental
relief.
My DEAR" said Mr.. Topnoody, after
awhile, ''if were to die would you marry
again?"
DO you think of dying?" she asked, as
if new interest had come into life.
mo, my dear, not particularly; but it
just occurred to me to ask the question"
well, TOpnoody, to be frank with you,
| think | would"
why, my dear, that is very inconsist-
ent," he said in surprise.
''How?" she asked. sharply. ''I'm not
usually inconsistent. am I?"
''NO. my dear, but in this you are, for
you are always railing against married life,
and regretting that you ever tried it, and all
that" ...e
but what has that got to do with me
marrying again?"
You don't want to repeat your misery,
do you, my dear?"
''Of course, don't. You see wouldn't
have to have you, TOpnoody, for my second
husband"
Topnoody looked across the table at her,
but she kept straight ahead with her work,
and he relapSed into silence.
