tendance was good. The boothes were
prettily decorated. Over $50 handker-
chiefs had been contributed by friends
of the members Of the society, and rep
resented almost every state in the
union as we'll as several foreign coun-
tries. The returns from this booth were
$42.25. There were aprons of all de-
scriptions which brought $27.55. A nice
line of jabots, bags and other fancy
articles netted $40.05. The supper was
excellent and we'll served and netted
$s075, making total Of $170.55. This
will be used to pay off the remainder
Of the pledge towards the building Of
the new church, and will leave a nice
sum to be used for other church ex-
penses.

Mrs. Butler came down to dinner
that night. She was more cheerful
than ] had yet seen her. and she had
changed her mournful garments 10
something "a tribe less depressing.
With her masses OF fair hair dressed
hish. and her face slightly animated.
J realized what ! had not done be-
fore-that she was the wreck Of a
very beautiful woman. Frail as she
was. almost shrinkingly timid in her
manner. there were times when she
drew up her tall figure in something
like its former statelincss. She had
beautiful eyebrows. nearly black and
perfectly pencilcd. they were almost
iucongruous in her colorless face.
