and. the doors taken down from their
hinges, to be replaced by portions that not
total in the chilly drafts which swept. across
the flour:
Right off the back parlor was a little room
set aside for my exclusive use, sacred from
all improvements and innovdtions, and usu-
ally called the library. One chilly spring
evening, as I looked out from this retreat on
the frosty, shining floor beyond. I thought
what excwding comfort lay ina thick velvet
carpet spread before (i register; a good, an
healthy furnace register, which warms 0110
all over. Out in the parlor my two daughters
were jointly entertaining young Mr. Alfred
Archer. and doing it very WclI,I thought.
I watched them for a while, as they skated
over the med floor, until the gentleman
roseto depart. Now Alfredis the pink of
politeness, and would not for a kingdom
have turned his coat tails upon his hostesses,
as he smilingly hacked and bowed himself in
what he supyxmxl was the direction of the 3
door. I saw in a moment that he was of! his
reckoning, and that directly inhispath stood
a large easel, holding a handsomely framed
engraving of Rosa Bunheur's famous master ‘
piece. Now-,1 have always said that pict«
urea were meant to hang securely against
the wall, instead of being tilted back on
three legs upon a slippery floor, and the
crash which announced the demolition of the
"Horse Fair" pretty well confirmed my
opinion.
It was some months before he came to the
house again. Indeed when his stylish hat
and cane once more adorned our hall mirror,
decorative art was decidedly on the decline,
and the private theatrical craze was fast
taking pm-ssioii of the family.
"Do you expect to turn out a Siddons or a
Ilistori among you?" I inquired one evening
in my most sarcastic manner, as I picked up
one of those little yellow covered volatiles of
the “Minor. Drama“ over which they were
now continually poring. “It is not for us
tosay what the extent of our abilities may
he,” replied my wife, with great modesty,
though hcr impersonation of the lcreaved
and discousolatc mother in the play of “A
Modern Ruth" was admirably pathetic, while
Julia, my eldest daughter, entirely won the
sympathies of the audience, or the maternal
portion of them, at least, when, as Ethel Ar-
lington, she prefers the mansion of a widowed
mother to acottago with Harold Colquitt.
A husband‘s and a mother's h we, to say noth~
ing of the mother's estate, were of course the
final reward of such self sacrifice, but when,
in the second act, she announced to her Ifll or,
“Harold, my heart is yours forever. th
urge me not, for love must yield to duty."
I joined heartily with the audience in up-
plauding her noble determination.
But Lulu, who took the part of a haughty
beauty, was not so fortunate. She was rather
too diminutive for dignity, and her slight
lisp, which we had always thought rather
pretty than otherwise, was quite painfully 5
perceptible when she strained her voice. She ‘1
thus dismissed her importunatc but, undo
airable lover (he was Alfred Archer,by the
way):
“I tell you, Thir Charlcth, I thcorn your
wealth and your titleth. Unhaml me, thir, I
thay.”
Nomat. this last outbreak, Sir Charles,
who did not know his part very Well and was
rather bashful, should have been passionately
clasping her hand, but was, instead. standing
at the other end of the stage and telling his
love from behind a chair. This slight dis
crepancy between the speech and the situation
naturally raised a litter at Lulu's expense,
especially among those who knew how mat-
ters stood between her and young Archer.
This performance satisfied family ambition
for the time, and histrionics with us by! fair
to die a natural death, when Ned Waring
came up from Sew York 'tofiiay us a visit.
Ned, who was some sort of third cousin to
my wife, was a capital fellow and a grmt
favorilc,but, like the rest of them, he was
stage struck, and the theatrical fury broke
out anew. I had to explain to sev-
eral visitors that none of the family
were “off," and that when any of
thcmwerc seen Walking around the house,
muttering to themselv , hey were only
learning their “parts." evening old Mr.
Tavistock was down in the library talking
over vatry matters. He was aftera sub-
scription to the new organ, and I was trying
to think how in some way I could politely
get rid of him, when a voice, bursting appar—
ently out of" the very wall, caused him to
jump from his chair and drop his paper in
the greatest alarm:
“Give me revenge, and you may have the
rin ."
”$311, that this band of gold were changed
to steel to clinch his traitorous neck, then
might I die content." ‘
“Wait a moment,” mid I, grasping the old
gentleman by the lapel of his coat: "there
is no danger, nor is this a private lunatic
asylum. as you might suppose. My wife and
'daughtcrs are merely rehearsing their parts
in the drama of ‘Tho Magic Ring.” How-
ever, he did not wait for my subscription.
But now I have to relate ‘how I myself got
into the dramatic swim, so to speak, the
cause of it being nothing less than the (lien
covery of a manmcript play, written by me
my years ago during a period of literary
ambition. Twenty years§of dust had gathorul
on the yellow leaves in the top drawer of an
old secretary, where my wife discovered
them, but she and'tho girls had read the play
through carefully, and declared at (nice that
it must be acted Buchacapftalwork should
not be lost through any fake modesty on the
part of the author. Of com-m dear papa was
quite right about young ladies displaying
thoniselvea in public: both girls agreed to
that, Idsing me at the same time to omph»
aim the admholon, but this was altogether a
different cane, and, in short, the author in
mewasso flattered. and the parent so pro-
pitiated that preparations were begun the

The parlors were smacked, and mommy li-

author‘s pride sustained me, and the next
pl'optkilllOll did not find me altogether unpro

tltusiustic one, and coffee and cake for flf t y
people will not add greatly to the cxpenm."
. "Fifty people! Why there are invitations
out for three times that number." ,
"Show me the list." ‘
I counted them and there were exactly 15¢;

giving such things away. ~
“Only coffee and cake," said my wife, in
an injured tone, “whcnthcy are invited to

"Thou thoplayalono ought to be worth
