By CLAUDE ARNOLD.

 PresS.l
 "Now. mother, the man must go."
 "we might give him one more chance"
 He has been intoxicated four times in two weeks, and we can't put up with him any longer"
 But help is scarce, daughter. and where will we find another man"
 "Pll drive to the village and find one. The garden must be attended to and the lawns moved. I'll offer as high as S2 per day until we can find steady man by the month"
 The Widow Deering and her daugh- ter Jessie occupied the manor house on what was known as Deerlng hill, and the son. Fred. always took q run out on Saturdays and remained until Monday. There was m acre of ground around the house, and a man of all work was necessary.
 Fred had been sent west on business, and in his absence the man was taking things edSy. MISS JesSlc huu hS'Sh been called upon to take the reins of management into her own hands.
 After the talk with her mother she went out and made ready the pony cart.
 She had never hired man in her life, but she had no doubt whatever as to her ability to make good choice.
 On her way to the village she stop ped at the home of friend to ask her if she knew of any competent man, Her friend. as luck would have 1t, had, not half an hour before, sent man along the road because she had no work for him.
 If you hurry you might overtake him, dear." she said to Miss Jessie. ..He was pretty well dressed and not more than twenty-five or thirty years old. You're sure to see him in the will lage."
 Miss Jessie hurried on, and when she reached Main street her eye fell upon Q young man sauntering aimlessly along. He was fairly well dressed and seemed to be about twenty-five years

Nerxoua Collectors.

Have you ever noticed" asked tho botanist, "how extremely nervous q collector becomes? I mean man or a woman who makes collection of anything-from birds eggs to copper jars or from crustacea to ichthyosau- ria. So soon as . collector has ae- cumulated two specimens along the same line he begins to fear something will happen to them, and his neryes are torn by desire, on the one hand, to show his collection to everybody who can be induced to look at 1t, and by an agony of apprehension, on the other hand, lest some one should care lessly touch one of the precious ob- jects.
 "The other day l laughed at one of my friends who has a collection of rare and beautiful butterflies. They are, of course, mounted under glass and then are placed in glass cabinets, yet when he is showing the collec- tion he fairly dances around the in- spector, lest some accident should cause finger or an elbow or e para sol to crash through the two protect. Ing crystals and ruin delicate speci- men. He laughed, too. and. admitted all said. I can't even bear,' he told me, to have anybody point at a speci- men, and if I find man the least bit careless with his hands I never show him my collection more than once."- New York Press.

 Bailey had the remedy Ut his finger tips. He placed his bundle on bench and advanced upon MT. White, picked sim up and carried him to the roadside fence and threw him over. As he re- turned to his bundle Miss Jessie alnfled at him.
 The newly hired man was given a room over the kitchen. He and the ad- hiring cook ate dinner at the kitchen table. She wanted to know all about him. Bailey didn't say he had tramp ed 1t. but she inferred as much; he didn't say he had resolved to reform, but she decided that he had, and she encouragingly sad to him as she cut him a big piece of apple pie for a windup:
 "Never mind how low down you have been; there's a chance for you. If you are sober and steady. who knows but you may come up to marry cook who has got $20O saved up and is the own CT of loving hearty
 Bailey weeded out the cucumbers and lettuce and tomatoes and carried in coal for the cook. AS he had been hired by the day he looked for the "bossv to replace him after four or five days, but she was only too anxious to have him stay on.
 Ten days had passed. and not Q word had been said on either side. when Fred Deering suddenly made his ap- pearance. 1t was midafternoon. and Bailey was hoeing the young sweet corn. No one saw him go, but as soon as he caught sight of young Deer ing he vanished and was hunted for in vain.
 He's stolen the family silver and absquandered, and that's just what l always thought he'd do" announced the cook. But the family plate and all other things were found to be safe.
 "Um, um," replied Fred when his sister had told him how she came to hire the man and gave description of bis looks. "He'sno joker, but know. ing me and having seen you once Um, um. Yes; he said he was coming over on the marshes duck sheot- ing

Bailey. eh! And they made you eat in the kitchen with the cook! And you weeded and hood and moved and never cracked smilei Say. 1t was great"
 And when the cart reached home and the two gentlemen walked up on the veranda where the ladies were sit- ting Fred uttered giggle and intro duced his friend Give Bonnet.
 It didn't take Miss Jessie more than minute to discover Bailey" In Ben net'sr clothes. She was hurt and hu- inflated and indignant just as her brother said she would be.
 Isis, you really deserve credit" her brother said three months later. "Yoc picked out the best hired man we ever had, and now you've picked out the best brother-in-law l could have asked for. By the way, don't, you owe him his pay yet at S2 per dayf"
