THE LITTLE HIGH CHAIR.
Incident Which Touched tho Heart OF
tho Austionoor.

tho Austionoor:
There was an auction sale at one Of
the downtown auction houses recent
ly. A pale, sad-faced woman, IN Il
plain calico gown, stood in crowd.
The loud-voiced auctoneer finally
came to a lot of plain and somewhat
worn furniture. 1t had belonged to
the pale woman. and was being sold to
satisfy the mortgage ON It, One Ivy
one the articles We're sold, the old bu-
reau to one, the easy rocker to anoth-
er, and bedstead to a third. Finally,
says Adelaide Lane in The Oaks, the
GuctlOneer hauled out chlld's high
chair. 1t was old and rickety, and as
the auctioneer held it up, everybody
laughed-everybody excepting the pale
faced woman. A tear trickled down
her cheek. The auctioneer saw it and
somehow a lump seemed to como up
in his throat, and his gruff voice grow
soft. He remembered little high.
chair at home, and how it had once
| filled his life with sunshine. 1t was
empty now The baby laugh, tho two
| little hands that were once held out to
greet papa" from that high-chair were
| gone forever. He saw the pale-facet
womans piteous looks and knew what
| 1t meant, knew chat IN her eye the lit.
tie ricNety high-chair was moro pre-
cious than if it had been made of gold
and studded with diamonds. la imN.i-
nation he could see tho little d!Mplc,l
cherub which it once held, could see
the chubby little fist grasplng the tin
rattle-bOX and pounding The chair full
of hicks; could see the little feet which
had rubbed the pain; off OF the legs;
| could hear the growing ami laughing
IN Giet-and now, the little high-chalr
was cmVty. He knew there was a dull
ache in the pale-faceI wo1nan's heart
there was In bis own. Somehow the
day may come and go, but you never
get over 1t. There is no one to dress
in the morning, no one to put to bed at
night. Don't laugh said the auc-
| uoneer, softly. as somebody facetlous-
ly offered ten cents, many Of you
have little empty high-ehairs at home
which money would not tempt you to
part with" Then he handed the clerk
bill out of his own pocket. and no
marked: "Sold to tho lady over there"
and as the pale-faced woman walked
out with tho little high chair clasped
In her arms, and tears strea ming down
her cheeks the crowd stood back re-
specially, and there was 4 suspicious
moisture in the eyes Of the man who
had bid ten cents.
