NOT (JIHTE A THAMP. "No tramp wanted hero, young chap; so vou may jog along." Tho speaker was a line-looking anil apparently an easy going gentleman of middle ago who was standing leaning over tho gate, looking out on tho road, Tho gato opened on agravei walk wnien led tin to a two-story eottago houo. In front of tho house, and at tho sides, tho ground was overloaded with tree, shrubs, and Dowering plants, which, to say the leastof It, did not show care ful attendance Altogether it was a bright, cheerful and attractive plaee. bo thought, no doubt, tho stranger. vhoo halt near the gato had provoked Mr. llorton'suttoranoc. Ho was not an ill-looking mnn, or boy, for he could not bo twenty-one, but his clothes Were ragged irid dirty, his shoes worn and mtitidy, ami ins gcnei.ii iippcuninuu on kent and disreputable. lie had Mopped In tho mail and had directed at tlio man, or at tho house, or at tlio grounds, or at all three, a wistful look, which nilghtintiinato a wish to en tor. It was this look which Mr. Horton iiad answered, when he addressed the young fellow, and advised him to jo, aloiiir. "I'm no tramp, sir," replied tho stranger; "You nro not? Then your looks be Ho your nature. You can't deny that vou havo all tho symptoms, "That Is true, sir: I know that I am poor and ragged, but I don't consider mvsell a trump, i am looniug ior work." "That u what they all say. 1 hey are looking for work. To say that is to ad vertlso tho fact that you aro a tramp.' "I supposo I must bo a tramp then, but I wish I wasn't." "You do? That's ono good symptom, nnywav. Aro you suro you won't run away from work, If you should find it, or lio down and go to sleep by the side of IP" "I am suro that I nm willing to earn my living, and am anxious to get a eliancu to do it." "What sort of work can you do?' asked Mr. Horton. "Kverythlng lu 1 .,.,,1 .,.,t1.l.,,r l.i ,, ll,tl,. 1,1,1, .01 UI!i:i.l! illl.l IKllllllJ, ... ' ..v...,. . "Humph! That don't oll'er an open Ing. The llowers aro my wife's pels, and sho is liko a dog in a manger about Micm won't touch tnom nerscii, or sui tor anybody else to touch them." "I can draw your portrait, sir," rested tlio boy. "You can? Aro you a wandering art ist in disguise?" "You ask mo what I can do, and I know that I can do that." "Any of tho tools of that trade?" Tlio hoy produced from' tho pockc t of his vest somo crayons and the tump of a lead pencil. "All right," said Mr. Horton. "I will try you at tho job. Como In." Ho opened the gato and led tlio way to tho house. On tho veranda wore somo chairs, ono of which ho offered to tho boy. "Want any moro tools?" ho asked "A sheet of drawing paper, if you havo it." Mr. Horton brought out tho required article, clumped upon a drawing board; also somo crayon holders and a sharp knife. " "I am a sort of an architect," ho said, "and Keep theso things on hand. But hadn't you better oat somo lunch beforo you begin tills business? You havo a hungry look." "I nm not so hungry, sir, but that I am willing to earn a meal beforo I oat It. Will you havo tho kindness to sit down?" "JSidu faco or front?" "Sido face, if you pleaso. I can do that tho best." Mr. Horton seated hlmsolf, presented his profile to t.io ragged artist who went to work without moro adf His strokes wero qulc k, vigorous and artistic, and In a surprisingly short tlmo a capital sketch of Mr. Horton's head nnd shoulders appeared on tho paper. Tho gentleman looked at it and puckered his lips so ns to produco a low and long drawn whistle. "I am not ready to pronounce you an angel, young o'low." ho said, "but I may truly say that I havo entertained a pretty fair artist unawares though the entertainment Is yet to como. Hero, Kmily! Bella! Como out hear and witness a newsonsation?" Mrs. Horton hurried out on tho piaz za, with her young sister Bella, and her llttlo girl, Lulu. For an answer, Mr. Horton handed his wife tho crayon sketch, which was hastily scanned with starts of surprise and ejaculations of dolight. "VVImt a nice likeness!" exclaimed Mrs. Horlon. "Where did it como from." "This young porson did It just now," answered Mr. Horton. "Goodness! (iraelous mo! I wonder if ho would mako ono for Lulu." "Of course ho would, nnd of Holla and tho wholo tribo, if you want ono. But lio Is tlrod and hungry, and you had bottor glvo him something to eat boforo you ask any moro of him." "1 will gladly do that. I am suro that this kindness of yours Is worth a dozen plotures." "Glvo hliu ono nnyliow, nnd wo will talk about tho rest. It wont do to bu too liberal at tlio start. Pleaso t6 fol low my wlfo, young foUow, and I havo no doubt that you will feci bettor when sho gets throuch with you.' Wliou tlio young stranger was washed and combed, and had been fed, his per sonal appcaranco was Improved, and ho had gained in easj nnd grace of man ner Ho was nnxlous to mako a pleturo of bnby Lulu, and was permitted to do so, producing a likeness which sent the fond mothor into extaclos This production having been sum- clently ndmlrcd, Mr. Horton dismissed tho femnlo rabble," as he chose to call tlicm, coraled his artistic tramp for a comcrsation. nsked him who ho was and all about himself. His name wns Abel Kcntridgc, nnd ho was the son of n miller nt Quccnsport, Mil., who had died suddenly, leaving nn estate so encumbered ns to bo worth loss than nothing. Abel had gono to Philadelphia to seek ins fortune, nnd had found nothing but disappointment and poverty. Ho knew soniothlngabout milling and gardening, but could find no employment in the city, nnd went into tlio country to look for work, but lils trnmP'liko appearance told against liltn, nnd ho was on (ho verge of despair when ho encountered Mr. Horton. "Tliero is no milling to do here," said that gentleman, "but I havo no doubt thht my wife, slneo you mado that sketch of Lulu, will allow ,you to straighten up those grounds, 'if vou turn out as well as I think you will, I may find something else for you to ,do' So It was settled that Abel Kcntridgc was to remain at Mr Horton's. A room wns prepared for him, nnd somo of his employer's partly worn garments wero fitted tar him, anil ho was set to work on shrubs nnd llowers nnd grass plats. His work was qulto satisfactory, and ho ac quitted himself generally so as to gain tho confidence and respect of all the homo. Besides tlio work on the grounds other odds and ends of employment were found for him nhout the plaee, but nothing was said to him about his com pensation. Thus was ho kept busy for a week, at thu end of which time Mr. Horton gave lil m a written order, and directed him to go to tlio village anil select for him self suitable clothing to the amount named in tlio order. "Hut I havo not earned so much as this," lio suggested. "If you haven't you will earn it," re plied Mr Horton. When Abel returned from tho lilingo ho carried his head Mitnewliat higher than when lie set out, and appeared to be, what nature and education mndo lilin a young gentleman of attractive person nnd manners. He wis ushered Into 'ho room in which the family wero sealed, a-id Mr. Horton coraled liim for what lie called a busi ness talk. "Wluit do you know about milling?" ho asked. "1 was never regularly employed by my father," answered Allel, but I picke'd up many points of the business while I was about his place shortly beforo he died, I Invented, or believed" I had in vented, an improvement on tlio turbino water wheel, by which greater speed could be got with the use of less water, and my father said it was a good tiling. After his death I gavo my model to a patent agent, for tlio purpose of apply ing for a patent; but tlio agent finally told mo that he had been unable to pro euro a patent, because the examiners decided there was nothing new in the invention. That discouraged mo moro than any of thu rest of my disappoint ments." "What was tho agent's name?" "Silas Northwiek"." "And your name is Abel Kentridgo?" "Yes, sir." "That agent lied to you, Abel,' said Mr. Hoi-ton. "Ho proVtired tho patent, which is very valuable, and meant to swindle you out of it. He would proba bly have succeeded if you had not come to mv house." "How do you know this?" eagerly asked Abel. "I am a sort of a specuhtor and oc casionally dabble in such affairs. Xorth wick offered tho patent for salo to mo beforo I perceived that It was in tho tmimi nf Alwil irn.it i-tilirn TT.t naltli-nil mo lie could procure nTl tho assignments from the patentee, who desired to sell, and I told him If ho could do sol would negotiate with htm. Ho is to meet mo to-morrow and bring tlio assignment, and of cours:- you can't havo signed your name lu Philadelphia whilu you wero at aiy houso." "I should think not," Indignantly ex claimed Abel. "Therefore, Northwlok's assignment will bo a forgery, and I shall bring lilin horo and confront him with you." Mr. Horton was as good as his word, met tho rascally agent at tho time and place appointed. Northwiek did not linvo tho assignment, although ho pro fessed tho ability to produce it as soon as the negotiation should bu concluded, and Mr. Horton had brought him to tlio house for tho purpose of winding up tlio transaction. There hu was confronted, greatly to his astonishment and dismay, by Ab'el Kentrldge. and it was made evi dent to him that his swindling scheme wns discovered. Tho upshot of tho Interview was that Abel got possession of ids precious pat ent, and Northwiek was glad to go clear of criminal proceedings. "Now, my boy," said Mr. Horton, if you will tnko mo ns your partner in tills business, I will furnish tlio needed cap ital and push it, nml I havo no doubt that botli of us will grind out a grist of money with your turbino wheel.'" Abel gladly accepted this arrange ment, and tho result soon becamo so satisfactory to both parlies that Mr. Horton heartily congratulated himself upon tho fact that his supposed tramp had not taken hisadvico to "Jog along." It should bo added that his pretty sis-tei'-ln-law, Bulla Grattau, also found iu tho same fact cause for solf-eongratula-tion.
