HEPZIBAH.
The room had been still for u long
while. Only the even, monotonous
splash of the outgoing tide and now
and again a restless, unconscious move-
ment of the dying woman in the bed
disturbed the stillness of the night.
In the big armchair by the bedside,
in the light of the lamp, sat a gaunt
woman, angular and haggard, with thin
compressed lips, yellow skin, light eyes
and dead. straw colored hair drawn
tightly back from her forehead. and
twisted into an uncompromising knot
at the nape of the neck.
She had watched for many weary
nights now beside that bed, but still
her eyes were wide and watchful and
her attitude alert. She counted each
fluttering breath of the girlish form he-
neath the sheet, and she noted each
quiver of the unconscious eyelids.
The night were on, and with the
coming of the gray dawn a wind arose,
moaning round the little house and
shaking the fastenings of the sickrocm
window. ,
The dying woman stirred, and she
moaned, then slowly opened her eyes-—
great, sad blue eyes—like a child in
trouble. ribs fixed them upon the watch-
er in the chair with a pathetic look of en-
treaty. .
“Hcpzibahl” The pole lips just
formed the whispered word.-
The gaunt woman ruse hastily and
bent over her.
“Hepzibnh—you have been very good
to me”—
A painful pause; breathing was so
difficult.
“Am I dying now?" ,
The woman bending over but made
no response, but tears gathered in her
hard eyes, and her thin lips quivcrcd.
“No, you need not tell me. I know I
um. I can fool it. Hcpzibuh, you have
been so good to me. There is something
that—you must (lo—for inc—when I
an) gone”—
Hcpzibah bent over her, Waiting.
watchful.
The dying girl raised one feeble hand,
pointing toward the old bureau in the
corner of the room.
“There—in the third drawer on the
left—a packet—letters. Will you bring
them to me?”
Hepzibah brought over to her a little
bundle, tied round with faded pink rib-
ban.
The young woman lingered it loving—
ly, wistfully.
"'l‘hcy arc. Jack’s letters—my Jack.
liepzibahl When I am gone, I trust you
to burn them for me. Toni must never

husband to me, but. I loved Jack first—

that he cared for mu. And—4m went
away in a tuinpcr~aiul I married Tom.
But when Jack came back from sea last
time, I—-—I found out how much he
cared. It was terrible—and I loved him
so! Then he was drowned—my poor
Juckl" '
A weak sob choked her broken whine
poring.
“Promise me you will burn them,
llcpzibuh, for Tom’s sakc. "
"Dear. I promise. ’ '
“You have been so good to me, so pa-
tivnt with me. When I am gone, you
will be good to pom Tom."
A dull red flush overeprcad the older
woman’s flu-o. She turned her head into
the shadow.
“I will do what I can, Nellie." sla-
responded in a arnothcrml voicc.
"Cull Tomuow. I feel l am going

dying woman‘s hand in his big grasp.
”Ucmc. Null, my lass, you must bear
a brave heart. We'll have you bctbr
soon." There were tears in his cheery
voice.
Nellie locked at him with a faint
smile. She raised the big red hand in
x.
lips. Then, exhausted by her mmt
cilmts. she closed her eyes and seemed
to sleep. Presently she started violently.
Her eyes opened in terror.
“The letters! You will burn them.
Hephihuh"—«
Torn turned to Espribnh wondering-
ly. He thought the delirium had re-
turned.
“ What letters does she mean?"
Hcpslbah was silent. She averted her
eyes. Then:
"She means her dead mother‘slet‘
tors," she replied in a steady voice.
The dying woman looked her grati-
tpdo for the saving tic. There wash
silence again and a solemn sense of
waiting in the room. At last Nellie
made a faint movement with her hand.

Hepzibah watched hire ' from under
her white eyelashes and kept silent, but
his pipe was always ready for him
when he came indoors and his favorite
food simmered on the hub.
Hcpsibah’s hair grow brighter as the
days went on. Her checks had a comely
blush. She began to take thought of her
dress. She bought a blue gingham gown
in the villaue and a muslin handker-
chief for her neck. Her voice took a
softer note. She began to sing about her

when he came in to his supper his feet
dragged wearily, and his eyes were dull
with misery.
“You should not grieve so," said
flepzibah softly one night after supper.
She was knitting in the flrelight. Her
head was bent over her Work. ‘
Tom woke as from a dream. He
looked at her with unsceing eyes.
"Ah, it's Well to say that to a man
whose heart is breaking. ”
His voice grew husky. He turned
away his head to the fire. ‘
“But you shouldn’t grieve as one
without hope. Time must soften things
a bit. You have your life before you. ”
Tom laughed a short, bitter laugh not
good to hear.
“She was all I had—my Nellie—the
apple of my eye. What gocd‘s life to
me now? Such pretty ways she had,
too!" he went on musingly. “Such lov-

Hopzibah's needles flashed in the fire-

The Puff on tho Sleeve.
A favorite sltcve for the plain cloth
gown, which admits of little. garniture,
has the arm fitted quite snugly almost
to the shoulder, narrmving down to ab-
solute tightness at the wrist, where it
spreads over the hand in two (loop
. points. The only fullness of the sleeve
pulls out at the. shoulder, smartly, not ‘
at all in a drooping way, but aggres-
sively stiff, as if making up for the lack
of qruunity. Often this style of sleeve
. is made up in velvet for a cloth gown
and finished at the wrist by a soft frill
of yellow lace. A far more dressy sleeve
is shown in a style suitable for a hand—

more or less claboratoncss is employed.

and is made to stand out as stifily as
possible, finished oddly by a huge loop
and 10ng end of the silk stufl’ caught at
the top of the shoulder by a fancy but-

fancy buttons finish the bottom of the
