FRIDAY -JULY 27, 1877.
LITTLE WOKBIES.
Though many ills may hamper life
When fortune turns capricious.
The great but nerve ue for the strife.
The small ones make us vicious.
Fierce Briefs are soon outstripped by one
Who through existence scurries;
It's harder for a race to run
With nimble "little worries."
! nressinir.
You run to catch and losc-a train,
Vi nat tataiiest or nurnesj,
Your newest hat encounters rain
Life's rull of "little -worries."
From day to day some silly things
Upset you altogether;
There's naught so soon convulsion brln;
As tickling with a leather.
'Gainst minor evils let him pray
Who fortune's lavor curries
For one that big misfortunes slay,
Ten die of "little worries."
God's Opportunity.
BY THE AUTHOR OF "TIIK DEBWEST DIAMONDS."
Mrs. Delalield looked out of the win
dow, as she clipped her thread, and tho
scissors fell from her hand.
'Oh! Maudie, I see Mr. Brompton
coming. I haven't five dollars in the
world. What shall we do V
Maudie was a cripple. AH her brief
life had been spent in that low easv-
chair, save when Tom rolled her under
the maples, in her small wagon, for her
morning airing, sue loolseU up from
her embroidery with great, wistful eyes,
"Poor mamma ! How I wish I could
help you !"
aiy Jove, you ao. lou help me a
great deal," cried the mother, as she
Hastened to tue door. "Walk in, JUr,
Brompton."
Mr. Brompton walked in. A portly,
uanasome gentleman, wearing a fur-
lined overcoat, and carrying a gold-
neaued cane.
"How do you do, Mrs. Delafield?
How do you do? Ah! my little pet!"
ae smuea Denigniy, shook tne wid
ow's hand, and patted Maudie's head.
"Bad day this, Mrs. Delafield," ac
cepting the chair she offered him. "Bit
ter cold. I'm out, nevertheless, mak
ing my collecting tour. Mrs. Delafield,
I make it a point never to break an es
tablished rule, as you may have ob
served, Mrs. Delafield. Be punctual
with your'tenantsand your tenants will
learn to be punctual with you. That's
a motto of mine, and I find it works ad
mirably, Mrs. Delafield."
Mrs. Delafield sat quite composed
not a feature of her face betraying the
nutter at ner uearc.
"Your rent comes due again to-day,
Mrs. Delafield." proceeded the landlord,
taking out note-book and pencil. "Last
month, owing to your extreme illness
contrary to my fixed principles, I suf-
iered it to run on. we'll square up in
full to-day, if you please, my dear
madam."
Mrs. Delafield caught her breath, and
pressed ber hand bard upon the table.
She was too proud to betray herself by
a single tremor.
"Beally, Mr. Brompton, I wish
could. But, owing to my illness, I've
done very little sewing. The few bills
due me I tried to collect yesterday, and
failed. However, I shall get the money
soon, and there'll be enough to pay the
rent. If you'll have the kindness to
wait a week or two longer, Mr. Bromp
ton "
Mr. Brompton interrupted with
smile, and the smile was uglier than a
irown would have been.
"I could wait, Mrs. Delafield. Oh!
to be sure I could ! I could make you a
deed of gift of the cottage, for that mat
ter. I'm fully able to do it! But you
see "
The widow rose to her feet.
"You have said enoueh. sir!
haven't the money to pay the rent to
day, and if you wish to turn me and my
cniidren into tue street, you can do so.'
A queen could not have made
haughtier answer. The landlord's florid
face darkened.
"You will have to leave, madam.

member my saying tbat you couldn'
stay unless the rent was forthcoming.
very wen; you've nad legal warning,
and to-morrow you go."
"Very well, sir."
"liood uay, jure, jjeianeld. I am
sorry to be forced"
"Make no excuses, Mr. Brompton
Done are neeueu. j. Did you good-even
ing."
Her soft eyes flashed; her voice rang
like a bugle; but the instant the door
was closed, she sunk down by Maudie's
cnair.
"Oh, Maudie! Poor little Maudie!
What shall we do?"
The child put aside her silks, and laid
ner soft cheek against her mother's.
Tom's band was on the latch; and
feeling that ber tears would not be
forced back, Mrs. Delafield jumped up,
and rushed into the next room, closing
tue noor alter ner.
"Hush, Tom!" said Maudie, as he
came whistling in, with his satchel on
his shoulder. "Poor mamma's in great
trouuie."
Tom's merry eyes saddened.
"What's up now, Maudie? Xo diuner
and no money to buy it with. I s'nose
and a fellow hungry enough to nibble
ma own nngers, this bitter weather."
Maudie's soft eyes looked up at him
full of tears.
"0! Tom, the landlord's been here
and he talked terribly to poor mamma "
"Did he? Wish I'd been at home."
"Hush, Tom ! What could you have
done? What can any of us do now?
We're to go out of the cottage to-mor
row morning."
"What? Why, we carit go. The
snow will be a foot deep by morning.
'Twould be the death of vou. Maudie.
Now, I shouldn't mind it one bit; but
you anu mamma: un, it isn't to be
thought of. I must prevent it some-
now."
Maudie's eyes brightened. Tom was
the hero of her lonely life.
"What shall we do, Tom ?" she asked
"Can't tell. Let me think a bit," he
answered, seating himself, boy fashion,
astride a chair. "If there was anything
that could be sold, now; but poor
mamma nas let everytning go, to Keep
us in bread and butter. Dear me! I
wish I was a man, or mamma would
let me leave school and co to work."
"Tom, I've a few bits of needle-work
that might be sold."
"Oh! bother, Maudie! Girl's work
never amounts to anything. What help
would tbat be?"
Maudie answered not a word, but her
sensitive lip quivered. Tom saw, and
reddened to the rooteof hiscurliug hair.
"There, Maudie, I didn't mean that.
I was vexed, and spoke without think
ing. I'm ashamed of myself. You help
us ever so much, with your dear, pa
tient little fingers."
Maudie's brown eyes shone like gold
stone. "I've hit it!" suddenly cried Tom.
"I'll sell that box of instruments tbat
belonged to papa. I don't like to; but
if ever I'm a surgeon, I'll manage to get
more. I'll do it."
-"Will mamma like it, Tom?" said
Maudie, doubtfully. "She never would
part with anything that belonged to
papa."
"I know." And Tom's firm month,
so like his father's, quivered slightly.
-uuiane'll have to llKe it, child. There's
no help for it. I won't see you turned
out of doors. I'm going, Maudie. I'll
take the box down to Doflrafield's, and
see what X can do. Don't breathe a
word to mamma until I come back."
Meantime, Mrs. Delafield. in the other
room, was wearily getting her few ef
fects together, in order for their sudden
removal. A great many empty caskets
passed through her bands. One box
bad held laces, another jewels, another
rare linens; all were empty. The con
tents bad gone for daily bread, as Tom
had said. She was looking with a sort
of vague hope, if there was anything
left to sell.
At the very bottom of one trunk she
came upon a coat which had belonged
to tier nusoanu, worn and familiar in
look, a handkerchief in one pocket, a
letter in another. She put it back with
a sudden cry of pain.
un i can't, I can't! Heaven help
me!" she cried, and burying her face in
her hands, burst into tears.
Her husband had been Surzeon John
Delafield, of the United States service:
and, for the first two years after their
marriage, sne nad gone with him over
seas, and into many a foreign land.
Such happy years they were ! But after
tbat Maudie was so fragile that she was
compelled to remain at home. Her
nusoand went alone, and from one voy
age he never returned. There had been
a succession of great gales at sea, and
ins vessel had never been- heard from
Ten dreary, endless years! Yet how
green" his memory Jived in her true
heart still! She put back the coat, as
something too sacred to be touched, and
Closed tne trunk.
Meantime, Tom made his way toDof-
frafield's, a sort of marine institution.
n6ar the harbor, whose proprietor made
his living by buying up odds and ends
irom indigent seamen.
Mere he ottered the box of surtrical
instruments ior sale, and received
paltry offer for them.
"Only that? Why, they're worth
five times as much," cried Tom, indig
nantly. "Twenty times as much would better
express it," put in a stranger who stood
looking on. "Hoy, what are you sell
ing those instruments for? How did
you come by them?"
Tom faced about like a lion, his hand
some eyes flashing fire.
"J. came by them honestly, sir. fhoueh
I don't admit your right to question me.
mey oeiongeu to my father."
The stranger smiled admiringly.
"It was impertinent to ask: but
might buy them, if I could feel sure you
are ngut in selling them."
"I am right, sir. They belonged to
my latner, and and You see, sir,
we're hard up, and they've got to go."
The coufession cost the bov a strug
gle, and brought the blood to his fair
lorenead.
"Who was your father, my fine fel
low?"
"My father, sir, was Surgeon John
Delafield. He is dead."
"What? What do you say?" cried the
stranger, "uraclous heavens! Why,
Tom, Tom, don't you know me? I'm
your father!"
Tom wheeled around, and looked
hard at the bronzed face. The tender,
handsome eyes were not to be mistaken.
He had seen them too often in the little
locket his mother always wore upon her
uearc
He made a step forward, and tried to
speak, but the words failed. He fell to
the floor in a heap. Poor, brave, self-
conudent Torn had minted like a girl,
But the keen air soon restored him.
"Come, father. O, do come, father,"
he cried, tugging at his father's arm.
"Only think of 'em at home! In such
awful trouble, too! O, think of mam
ma and Maudie! Father, do come on
last:"
They hurried on through the increas
ing storm.
"There's the house, father. You see
that light yonder? We couldn't afford
to live in New York auy longer, and
had to come to this cheap place. But
even here we're starving. Ob. mv
precious little mother, won't this be the
jolliest night of her whole life? To
think of the trouble she's in ! Ordered
to leave the cottage to-morrow, too,
That's why I wanted to sell your in
struments, you see, lather."
The cottage was now at hand. At
their knock, Mrs. Delafield opened the
uoor. ner nusoand rushed forward.
and caught her to his heart.
"It is I, dear! Don't you know me?
Not dead, but saved by miracles, after
an tnese long years."
"Hurrah! it's father!" cried Tom
whirling his cap in the air.
sue uiu not mint, as Tom nad ex
pected. Her great sorrow had never
been boisterous, neitbtr was her great
joy.
Maudie looked up at the sun-browned
lace wnen sne, too, had beard the won
derfui news.
"Where have you been, papa? To
heaven ? And has God sent you back
to us " $
"Not to heaven, Maudie. The other
place would better express it. Wrecked
off the South Sea Islands, and as good
as roasted andaten by cannibals, then
a prisoner for years. But here I am at
last. Tom found me."
Maudie's shining eyes sought her
mother's.
"Yes, papa, Tom found vou. But
believe, all the same, it was God's Op
portuuiiy." j-etcrson's Magazine.
If women would only be not quite so
afraid of being thought unwomenly,
they would be a great deal more wom
anly tnan tuey are. To be brave and
single-minded, and discriminating and
judicious, and clear-sighted and self-reliant,
and decisive that is pure and
womanly. To be flabby and plastic, and
weas anu insipia, is not womanly,
