Itwn8 just such an American village as you aeo in pictures. A background ol superb bold mountain, all clothed in blue green cedars, w?th a torrent thundering down a deep gorgo and falling in billows of foam; a river reflecting the azure of tho sky, and a knot of houses, with a church spire at one end and a thicket of factory chimneys at tho other, whose black smoke wrote over-changing hieroglyphics against tho brilliancy ol tho sky. Thirwas Dapplovale. And in tho rosy sunset of this blossoming Juno day the girls were all pouring out of tho broad doorway, whilo Gerald Blake, the foreman, sat behind bis desk, a pen behind liia ear and his small, beady black eyes drawn back, aa it were, in tho shelter of a precipice of ahaggy eyebrow. One bv one tho girls stopped and received their pay for one week's work, for this waa Saturday night. One by 0110 thov filed out, with fretful, discontented laces until tho last one pasAed in front of tho biub-railed deak. She was slight and toll, with large, velvety blue eyes, a complexion as delicately grained and transparent as rosecolored wax, and there was something in the way tho blue ribbon at her throat was tied und the manner in which the simple details of her dress were arranged that bespoke her of foreign birth. "Well, Mile. Annette," said Mr. Blake, "und how do you like factory life?" "It is not disagreeable," she answered, as she extended her hand for tho money the foreman waacounting out. "You have given me but $4," Bho mdd"It was to be $8 by tho contract." Mr. Blake Bhrugged his sliouldors disagreeably. "Ilumph 1" ho grunted; "you ain't much accustomed to our way of doing things, uro you, mademoiselle? Eight --of course; but we deduct two for a fee" "Afee! Forwhat?" Annottodemand-! ed, with ilushod cheeks and spurkling eyes. "For getting you tho situation, mademoiselle, to be sure," said Mr. Blake in a superior sort of way. "Such places don't grow oil'every bush. Ana folks naturally expect to pay something for the privilege." "I did not!" flashed out Annotto Du? veils. "Oh?well?all right Because, you know, you uin't obliged to stay unless you chooso." "Do you mean," hesitated Annette, "that if I do not pay you this money"? "You can't expect to stay in tho works," said Mr. lslake, hitching up hi* collar. "But tho other two dollars?" "Oh," Said Mr. Blako. "that's a per ccuuitfc uie gins an pay. "But what is it for'r Mr. Bioko laugqod. "Well, it helps out my salary. Of course, you know, tho girls all oxpect to nay something every week for keeping their situations in a placo whero there's so many anxious to get in." "Anu' Mr. Elderelie?" "Oh. Mr. Elderelie," repeated Blake, "He hasn't much to do with it. I am master at tho Dapplevalo Calico Works." "Mr. Elderslio owns it, I believe ?" "Well, yes, ho owns it. But I manage everything. Mr. Elderelie reposes the utmost confidence in my capacity, ability, and?and?responsibility. And now if you've any more questions to ask" r,I have none," said Annette, wistfully. "But?I need this money myself. I cannot allord, auy<moro than the others among these poor laboring girls, to pay it to your greed"? v/'Eh?" ejaculated Mr. Blake, jumping I from his seat as iisomo insect had stung | him. "And x will not pay it." concluded Mile. Annette. "Very well?very well. Just as you like, ujadamoinelle," cried tho foreman, turning red in tho face. "Only if you won't conform to tho rules of tue Dapplevalo Works"? "Arethesotho rules?" scornfully douinnrind Annotti? "Pray consider your nnrao crossed off the books," went on Mr. Blake. And Mr. Bioko slammed down the cover of his desk as if it wero a patent guillotine and poor Annetto Duvelle's neck wero under it. . Two or threo of the factory girls who had hovered around the open door to hear tho discussion looked with awestricken faces at Annette as she came out with $4 which she had received from tho cashier in her hand. "You've lost your place, ma'amselle." whispered Jenny Purton, a pale, darkeved littlo thing who supported a crippled mother and two littlo sisters out of her mulcted earnings. "It matters not," said Annetto. "He is a rogue, and rogues sometimes outgeneral themselves," And Annette Duvolle went back to the little red brick cottage, all thatched with the growth of the woodbine, where sho lodged with tho wife of the inon who tended tho engines in the Dapplevale Works. "Does ho cheat you, too, of your money?" she asked, when Simon Pettengill came home, smoke-stained and grimy, to eat his supper. "One-sixth I have to pay to him," said Simon, with an involuntary groan, as ho looked nt the five littlo ones around his board. "Yes, miss, lie's a villain, but tho world is full of such, Mr. IJIderslic never comes hero, or may bo thing# would bo a bit different. Mr, ElderslTe liven abroad; in Paris, they say." "lie is in thifl country now, said An? nette. "I intend to write to him." " 'Twon't do no good, miss." "Yes, it will," said Annette, quietly. Tho petals of tho June roses had fallen, a pink qirpet all along the edge of the woods, ami tho Dapplevale n orks worlfs wore thejr holf(fay ku|bo, oyon down to Simon mtengilJ's newly brightened steam engine, for Mr. Eldorslie and his bride wero to visit tho works on their wedding tour. "It's a pity Ma'amsello Annette went away so soon," said Simon to his assistant; " 'cause they say the master's kind hearted in tho main, and sho might havo spoken up for frewclf." * Mr. Gerald Blajce. in hip best broad, cloth suit 'arid mustache nowly dyed, stood smiliug in the broad doorway at HJO curnuuL' UIUTV uu vu miu CUH?UW| and Mr. Elderelie, a handsome, blondobrowed man. sprung out and assisted a young lady, in a dove-colored travoling suit, to alight. "JilAlce, 1|01T nro you?" ho said, wltb tho carelessness of conscious superiority, "Annette. my lovo, this is Blake, mj foreman. "Mile. Annette 1" And Mr. Genld Blake found hlmsel cringing before the slight French gir i whom lie bad turned from the factor] door a month before. "I must beg to. look at the book! Blake," said Eldemllo, authoritatively My wila tells me some gtryifo etorW about the way things art managed here. It became to notorious that the rumors : reached her even at Blythesdale Springs, and she chose to come and see for her: self. Annette, my.dorling, the best wedding gift we can make to these uoor working girls is a new foreman. Blake, yon may consider yourself dismissed. "But, sir"? "Not another word," cried Mr. Elderslie. with lowering brow, and Mr. General Blake crept away, with an uncomfortable consciousness of Annette's scorn* ful blue eyes following him. And a now reign began for poor Jenny Purton and the working girls, as well as for Simon Pettenrfll. ABOUT WIDOWS. Thero are several kinds of widows. Some, as mentioned by St Paul, are widows indeed, while otnere are not. There isn't much difference between a grass widow and a grasshopper after all. Either is sure to jump at the first chance. Customer: "Those seem to bo very fine diamonds. Are they of pure water?" Jeweler: "Yes, and they are as sparking as tho tears of a young widow." Cus( tower: "If that's the kind of diamonds , they aro I don't want thorn. Tho water would not lost very long." According to tho Louxll Citizen the most common form of gross widow in that neighborhood in summer is tho woman sent out to pasture iu tho country, while thoihusbimd remains at homo in tho city. A father consoling his daughter, who had lost her husband, said: "I don't wonder you grieve for him, my child; , you will never find his equal." "I don't know as I can," responded tho sobbing widow: "but I'll do my best." The father felt comforted. A fair widow, who hud buried three husbands, went with a gentleman who in his younger days had paid her marked attention, to inspect tho graves of the dear departed. After contemplating them in mourning silence, sho said: "You might have been in that row if you had only had a little more courage.'" A California widow who put her all into a deal in stock und was shrunk out, I called upon her brokerandsaid; "When will this thing probably come out In the papers?" "To-morrow, doubtless." "How long can you suppress lie -?uy, x might keep it out two dam but not longer." "Only two days? That's pretty short notice, but I am a hustler when I J pet my bonnet on. I'll depend on two days." On the third day tlie papers chronicled her loss and her wodding on tho samo page. Dki.icAte persons, and all whoso systems have become debilitated, Should bear in mind that Simmons Livdr Regulator is not a drastic, purging medicine, , does not weaken or deplete the system as other purgatives do, but acts gently. It will invigorate like a glass of wine, but it is no intoxicating beverage to lead to intemperance: will promote digestion, dissipate headache, and generally tone up tho system. Hon. Alex. II. Stevens, of Georgia, says: "Simmons Liver Regulator is mild and suits me better than more active remedies." MWMW Tho church belle is sometimes found in tho choir. The usual treatment of catarrh is very unsatisfactory, as thousands of despairing patients can testify. On this point a trustworthy medical writer says: "Proper local treatment is positively noccssm-y to success, but many if not most of tho remedies in general use by physicians afford but temporary benefit; A cure certainly cannot bp expected from snuffs, powders, douches and washes." Ely's Cream Balm is a remedy , which combines the important requisites of nuick action, specific curativo power with perfect safely and pleasantness to tho patient. mwVaw Catarrh cured, health and sweet breath secured, by Shiloh's Catarrh Kcmcdy.
