COMMERCE AND GRNT11lTY.
Run OF ON Homemade Candy Made
Sister Jane Nervou. and Stopped
Its Sale.

One of the most interesting pieces of char.
acter drawing in Hawthorne's work is the
proud old New England woman, Hepzi-
bah, IN the "House of Seven Gables. !"
Forced to keep shop, she used to wish that
customers would not come to witness the
fall of her pride and her fortunes. The
Washington Post tells similar story, the
scene of which is laid in Pennsylvania VII
lage.
Two old spinsters keep a little shop in
which. they sell pins and calico and other
"smal wares" Last summer Washington
woman saw jar of homemade candy in
their window, and bought some of it. It
was so good that she bought more of it, and
told all the summer visitors about it. There
was run" on homemade candy, and the
jar had to be reflled again and again.
One day the Washington woman called
for some more of the candy, and was told
that the sisters were out of it. A day later
she called again, and the elder sister, with
some embarrassment said that they were
still out, and recommended that she try
the city made candy at the drug store. This
was not what the Washington woman want
ed, so after two days she paid a third visit
to the shop. Still the candy jar was empty.
Aren't you ever going to have any more
of it 2" she asked.
The elder sister hesitated in obvious dis
tress.
81 don't think we are" she said, at
length. You see, so many people got to
running in here asking for that candy, and it
made SO much confusion, that Sister Jane
got nervous about it. So we decided not to
sell any more candy. We aren't going to
keep it after this
