THE 11KD BlCGGAli.
Once iiiinn n time there was a (irotty
little vuttugu by the ldo of tha roud to
the town. It won hurililo, hut nil about
It, every IhliiK, wiisnlwu a neitt and tritf,
ho It was evldont that It m not the
ilwelliny of either ninth or want, A
honoyHUfltlo cliinbi'il uj) over tho door,
mid f;ay llowei'H lilooiut'il in lieils before
Hi wliilu on tho 811111I1 wiih the aliinil for
the been, whera in ntriiw thatched hives
they atored honoy nil day long in uunny
weal her.
Ill the cottage lived mi old limn nniiied
l'uul ami IiIh wifo liarliarcr. They were
very fund of each oilier, unci had it not
been that they hud no children they
would have hern ns liii)yiiHilioday waH
Ioiik. Ah it wiik, they tried not to mliw
too lunch tho (irattlu of Utile onea which
the Hloi'lis would not lii'ini,' to Ihein, but
went on their way In life, thrifty and
kind to tho Hior, and doing good whon
it offered.
In tho morning Paul would goudeld
to Ilia work, while Dame Iturhnrer would
remain ut homo to do whatever house
hold tasks needed attention and after
ward to Hplii smooth thrutuUof flux with
her dixttilt, to bo wild in the market of
the town or to be woven into cloth from
which alio made clothing foi lierxulf and
her huuhniid, or, what qulto as often
liaiHnud, foray mo poor and unfortunulo
nelnhlKir.
Dame Ilarbarer was always kind to tho
beggars who caino her wuy. They aeem
ed to her ho unfortunate in not huvlng a
homo that h!io could not help giving
them nt least food and now and then an
article of clothing, and hIiu wuh itlmiwt
always (mllentoven when their re(Uohts,
as KomclimcH loiiieued, took almoHt the
form of command.
"Tho (Hor creatures know no better,"
she would say. "They have nothing;
not even .0110 enough to know how to
bo grateful; but that does not matter. I
do not help them lii-caumj they bcfi
prettily, but because they need."
Hut once upon a time I hero came a
beggur who tried tho patience of Danic
liarliarer quite beyond even her endur
ance. It was one afternoon when it was
almost time for her husband to return
from the II, hi, ami liarbarer was hasten
ing to get bis evening meal ready for
him. She hud liccu to the town to sell
some thread, ami had been detained, so
that she had not time on her return to
kiko a wheateu cake for his Rupier, in
olio had liileiuled. She hud only a very
little broad in the Ionise, and when a
beggar cuiuoaliiiigand rather impudently
demanded a bit of bread and cheese she
was loth to give it to him.
The la-ggnr was by no means a prepos
sessing looking individual. His dress wan
all of red, alt hough il was bo faded ami
weather beaten, no tattered nnil torn that
It waa bard to tell what it looked like in
Its I icst days. The remains of a red
cock's feather was stuck jauntily in his
cap and jagged ends of faded red rllilsin
fastened his doublet. Long black hall
dangled in tangled locks over his fore
head, mid, with his hhngi'V black eye
brows, half bid his piercing eyes. Ills
Hose was sharp and thin, and there wits
to his nostrils a strange curve which
made Ids face one not at all prcpos-icHS-lug.
Add to all this that he was lame
of one fool and that he hud something
of a hump iH-tweeii bis slioiililcrs, and lie
was not nt all the sort of man 0110 would
wish to meet on a lonely Mad.
I lame Ilarbarer heaved a sigh as she
li Hiked ut him. and hesitated, while the
st ranee red lU'ilru leered at her In 11 man
ner that sent a cold chill down her spina.
She did not w ish to share tho little bread
there was for rani's hiiikt with this
fantastic looking creature, hut she was
toocliiirilahle to turn him away without
a morsel. So she made the lieggnr sit
down ii)kiii the diHirslcp, and then alio
brought him it Hindi piece of bread and
a big pieco of cliii'se, hoping that the
size of the one would make up for the
enmllncss of the other.
Tho red U'ggar fell to eating with tho
npHtlto of a board of locusts and us If
he had eaten nothing for a month, and
it waa hardly the twinkling of an eye lie
fore be bad Ibiished thebitof bread com
pletely. "l'lease, mist reus," lie wild lieseechlng
ly, "please, mistress, could you not give
1110 just a little wee bit of bread to eat
with tho rest of my cheese?"
The dame, although this was exactly
what she ilid not wish to do, cut him a
slice of bread and gavo It to him with
the licst grace she could manage.
Tho ragged r.iscul fell to eating even
faster than before, mid almost licforo
alio bad laid down the bread knife he
hud iiinde 1111 end to his cheese.
"Dense, kind mistress," he wild more
humbly than before, "(dense, kind mis
tresa, couldn't you give mo a morsel uf
choose to go with my bread?"
This also was I Mine llarharcr fain to
do and hungrily ns the fire devouring a
field of riH grain did tho vnrlet make
way Willi Ids bread.
"l'lease, gotsl, kind inUri M," he said,
"please, good, kind mistress, could you
not give me a very little, wee morsel of
bread to eat with my cheese?"
And to cut short a story which though
It would lie long In tho telling was not
long ill the doing, tho red is'ggnr would
contrive llrnt to make nn end to his bread
and then to luuku an end to his cheese,
begging with over increasing Inslstance
formnroof one nnd then of tho other,
until lie had managed to beg from Datno
Ilarbarer every morsel of breud them
waa in the house, mid the hour of tho
good man's return already striking, And
when nil was goiio the Impudent and un
grateful red varlet threw buck Ida hair
from his deep set and piercing eye) and
laughed In her face,
"Many thanks, sweet mistress," lie
said saucily. "If the good man scold
for look of Ids Btiiicr, teach him the way
I get mine, and It may serve hitn in
good atead if ho will but take to the
highway and seek out some soul as char
itable as Ida wife."
Then it was that for almost tho only
time in her lifo Dumo Iturhnrer lost her
temper,
"Oct you gone!" alio cried angrily. "Ia
it not enough that you havo eaten all tho
good man 'a supper when he tolled all
day and you huve been asleep, it is liko
ly, In tho Bun ber.ldo soma havstack, but
in return you must stay, and flout me
for my silly good nnturo, A pretty re
turn, grsxl sooth, for tho fond I have given
youl Get you gone while I can still keen
my honest bunds off your hiity carcass,"
The vagabond scrambled up from hie
teat upon the doorstep, and stood look
ing Into her angry fuce with nn unploat
ant laugh.
"May I not come In nnd warm myself
by the lire first?" he asked saucily.
"Come In and warm yourself 1" echoed
the dame angrily. "Let your supper
warm you, boggart"
And with that the pushed him off of
the atop Into tho sandy walk.
"May you be colder tho more you put
on," suid tho red beggar as Datuo Bar
barer closed her cottage door upon him
with a push not very geutlo.
The duino did not heed him or Ida
words, hut set to work with nil spued to
got something ready for her husband's
supper.
"Shivery shakeryl" said Dame Bar
barer to Goodman Puul whou hocaine,
"I am very cold."
"Put more clothes on," ho answered.
So ha gave her his coat, and she put
thutontind her thickest cloak, and her
hood and a pair of mittens, and two
pairs of stockings.
"Shivery shakervt Shukery shivery!"
cried the old woman; "I am colder than
ever."
"Put more clothes on," said Paul.
So she (ut on a veil ami her husband's
hoots and Ids (Sunday cravat and a pair
of earrings and a walking stick.
' "Shivery shakery! Shukery shivery!
I shiver and shako!" she cried. "I urn
colder than before."
"Put tnoru clothes on," said her hus
band. So she put 011 a blanket and a bosom
pin, and a nucklaou that alio had not
worn since she was a young girl, and a
collar and her husband's watch chain.
"Shivery shakeryl Shukery shivery!
I shiver and shake! I shake and shiver!"
she cried. "I am colder than ever."
"Put more clothes on," once more said
her husband. "Here, take my thick
wuistcoat."
She took the waistcoat, hut In order to
get It on It was necessary to tuko off some
of the many things she was alraudy
wearing; and, as fast as sho took off the
things in which Bhe was wrapped, she
U'gnu at once to get warmer, and shore
uiomlicred the words of tho red beggar,
and how ho had wished that she might
grow colder the more she put on; and
Daino Ilarbarer knew that a 8iell hud
been laid upon her becauso alio had
spoken harshly to the vagabond when he
wished to come in and warm himself by
her tiro. Shu therefore made hersell
warm hy taking otf her wrappings until
she had as lilt loon us it was at all re
siiecmhlo to wear, and thereafter she
went in cold weather so tbinlv clad that'
her neighbors declared that sho had lost
her wits.
It was well nigh a year that this state
of tilings continued, and one day just as
the sun was near setting, and tha dame
wus every moment exiectiug her hus
band homo from tho field where ho had
been ut work ull duy, whou u strungeold
woman cumu puttering along tha roud.
The (Hior old creature wus bent well nigh
double, and 0110 could geo that her back
was not straight, a hump standing out
where her shoulders were stooped over.
Tile old woman, indeed, was so bent over
that it wus not possible to aeo her face,
and It was only by her dress that one
could have known her again.
But it was thin dross which mailo Dame
Ilarbarer stare; for It was all of faded
red, tattered nnd stained and weather
beaten, mid patched hero and there, but
despite the fact that it was thu dress of
a woman nnd not of a man, there wus
something alsjut it that brought the red
beggar of tho year licfore up so vividly
to tho damn that she began, all of a
tremble, to (ml a stipiur 011 a plate for
thu newcomer without even waiting to
bo asked. Tho old red woman Bat down
on the doorstep, panting and chuckling.
"You are dressed strangely, Dame,"
she said, "for the lime of year."
"The time of year has nothing to do
with what 1 wear," answered poor Dame
Uaibureri "thu colder it gets the less I
wear, and in summer I havo to put on
the thickest things I have to keep cool."
The old red woman chuo.'-.led.
"Perhaps my brother has been hero,"
sho observed, eating away with a hearty
apietito.
"Is ho your brother?" asked Bnrbarer
frfteouslyi "oh, If you would only ask
dm to undo tho ohariu and make me
liko other iiooplo, thuro Isn't, anything I
wouldn't do for you."
"Humph! Pcrhais you weren't polite
to him. Lie is very particular about
that."
"I am sure," tha Dumo answered, "1
tried to Iw kind to lihu until ho was
saucy to mo."
The red woman chuckled mora than
ever.
"Well," sho paid, finishing her supper,
and rising with more agility thun one
would hnvu cxicctfd of her; "you are on
tho whole a good sort, and I dura say on
the wholo you have been punished
enough."
"Oh, Indeed I have," jioor Barburor
answered, with tears in her eyes. "Mora
tlinn enough."
"Well, then," tho old woman Bald, "It
shall not be said that I havo not made
amends for what my brother did more
than you deserved, and you shall have
your heart's desire."
Sho looked into llarbitrer's faco, nnd
the dame would havo sworn for her lifo
that It wus the red beggar who cursed
her into whose face she was gazing. Then
sho IsMit over again with one nf her sin
ister chuckles, anil went hobbling down
the road.
