TBIa TWO TROCHE-**.
It wan a cold, disnr.al evening in Novem
ber that two laborers might have been seen
weuding their way along the street-) of a
large manufacturing town.
Slowly they proceeded with dejected
counleuances, not exchanging a word until
the one whom we :hall call Smith halted
before a neat little, house and unlatched the
gate. Then there was such a look of ut
ter misery and despair gleaming from his
eyes, that his companion murmured, "Wo
must trust in Oud, Smith."
"Yea," he articulated gloomily, and go
ing to ths cradle took up the six week's
old >aby, and sorrowfully pressed it to
his heart.
"I do wish you would put that ohild
down and get ready for supper," exclaim
ed his wife, after enduring his gloominess
for some time.
He slowly obeyed, and then seated him
se'f at the table with a sigh.
"VVhatin the world is tho matter with
you to-night?" the asked nu sho .sat down
opposite him.
llis voice trembled as he replied, "I sup
pose you might as well know first ns lust.
I have been discharged."
"There!" exclaimed his wile," just
what I mijjht have expected! I'd liko
to know what we are going to do now.
Winter coming oh and all. I declare,
Smith, you will torture to death."
"I am very sorry, Lvdia, but I cannot
help it."
"Sorry! No, you are not sorry at all.
You would just as leavo .co your wife aud
children starved ns not. It's nothing in
the world but your poor managing."
"Lydia, you are cruel. Instead of help
ing me to endure my great trouble, which
is hearing mo down to the very earth, you
make it ten times harder for mo to hear.
I was not the only one discharged. There
was Jim Hawley and over so many others.
Business is dull."
"Business is duil!" sho mimicked after
him. "Always an excuso for a worthless
man. To think that you should be dis
charged now, just as your rent is due ; and
then you are out of wood; and look at my
shoes, won't you ? my feet almost on the
ground. I wish I had never married you,"
and a dark look accompanied tho last
words. The poor husband now covered
his faco with his hands and groaned aloud.
This seemed to encourage his wile to on;
for she uttered her last words moro and
more bitter, until at last driven almost to a
state of frenzy, the wretched man rushed
from the house to the tavern, und there
sought to bury tho thought of the past and
future in the rum cup.
In the meantime James Ilawley, his
companion in labor, entered his homo with
a very Bad countenance. But before ho had
stepped over the threshold a loving pair of
arms were thrown around his neck and a
pair of sweet lips were pressed to Iris. He
returned the salutation sadly, and then in
quired for the baby.
"She is sleeping sweetly in her cradle.
Sho has been a perfeot little darling all clay.
Supper is waiting; so make haste. Here
is warm water and a towel. Are you not
later than usual, to-night?"
"Yes, Mary. I bring bad news to you."
"Bad news !" she exclaimed, turning
pale as, for the first time, she noticed that
something was wrong.
"Yes, I was discharged to-night, and I
do not know as 1 can git anything tn do
before spring. Business is so dull."
"Is that all?" asked his wife with a sigh
of relief. I thought it was something ter- i
rible, the way you looked."
"Aud is it n. t irrble enough? Whit
will become of us this winter, if 1 nn. out
of employment?"
"The same God who feeds the sparrow
and clothes the lilies in tho field will not
let us suffer, dear James."
"Ged bless you, dear Mary. Thero is
sweet comfort in your words."
"And now let us have supper," exclaim
ed his wife, cheerfully. "See I have your
favorite dish—sliort cake and toast. Do
not let your troubles impair your appetite,
and then, after tea, we will talk it over.
God doeth everything for the best. And
as our day, so shall our strength be."
In the evening it was determined that
the quarter's reut should be paid iinmedi- i
ately, a new supply of coul obtained, and
the remaining portion of the money placed
in the wife's hands to be dealt out us spar
ingly as possihe.
Then Mary suggested that all her pretty
parlor furniture should be put away in the
garret and the front room let out. Further j
than thia they lay no plans, and as the hus
band went out to pay tho rent, tho futuio
looked so dark to the young wife that she
could not altogether restrain from tears;
but seeking strongth from on high, her i
face bore the same cheerful smiles when her
husband returned, and little did he know «
that during all that night long, while he ;
and his baby were soundly sleeping, his t
wife lay awake planning for tbo future.
Three months have passed without a _
day's work all that time, aud now another
quarter's rent is due. In vain the laboier 1
thrusts his hands into his empty pockets,
and in vain racks his brain lor some solu- •
tion of the problem how tho rent i3to be '
Eaid. The lodger had paid his monthly, '
ut that was not enough to meet the sum, •
if he had it, and of course his wife had >
spent that as fast as she had received it, -
and it was an everyday wonder to James
how Mary managed so well. ]
With feelings oi deep despair ho entered
the house. The table was spread with some •
favorite dish. There was tho short-cake
and toast flanked with a golden lump of
butter, a plate of honey antl a deep dish of
roasted apples, to be served with sugar and j
cream, while at his wife's plate sat the
■teaming tea-pot. As James took it in, all j
at one glance, he greatly wondered at tha ,
frugal yet comfortable way of living. How",
his wife had been able to mako the small J
•mount of money last so long was a mys
tery to him, and yet he could not help
wishing inwardly that she had been more
economical; then, porhaps, tho rent might
have been paid, ana he felt that it would be
better to have subsisted on ono crust of
bread rather than be turned out of doors
homeless.
He refused to sit at tho table, pleadin*
that he had no appetite. And a great large
tear aro.-e in the strong man's eyes as he,
informed his wife that on the morrow they
would be turned from their house, to go
he knew not where, as he had not a dollar
in his pocket to secure them a room else
where.
"Is that it ?" exclaimed his wife, in a soft
tone, and tripped up stairs and soon re
turned and placed two ten-dollar bills in
his hand.
"Where did you get them?" ho asked,
eagerly turning them over on his hand as
though to ascertain whether they were
really genuine or not,
"I earned them," replied his wife, gaily.
"I knit afghans, shawls, children's hoods,
sacquos and socks—at lirst only for those
whom I providentially heard wish for arti
cles of the kind, and afterwards was em
ployed to furnish a trimming store with
my work."
"And kept it a secret from me ?"
"Yee, because I thought you would be
worried for fear I was doing'too much. I
love to knit dearly and consider it a more
pleasant pastime than labor.''
"God be praised for giving me such a
wife!" exclaimed her husband, earnestly ;
and prosing bis wife and child close to his
•all her bld^-ed; her husband also, and In
praiseth hcrj for many tlaughtors havi
done virtuously, but thou excellest thei
■ll »

ess*.
Twenty years have passed, and Jamei
Hawlcy is a rich man. But Joseph Smith
is a conflimed drunkard, while his wif<
has long since passed from earth, a v.ctini
of misery and want.
Why will not wives assist their husbands
to bear their trials with helping hands and
hearts? If they would but do so, how
many families would be saved fiom ruin,
and how sweet would be their reward, nol
only upon earth, but in heaven.
