The Weman Whe Planned.

CONCLUSION,

dinners on that plan, or no plan for one) week only!’? said the wife, amid the laughter of the company, who knew well James’ fondness for a good dinner. “ Fo one,’’ she conciuded, rising and preparing to put into execution her plan for getting home. “1 hold that it is our duty & plan everything to the best of our ability and do our utmost to carry it out and leave the ‘stars in their courses,’ or othe: people or things in theirs, to thwart us it it be so ordered. Let those ‘go it blind’ who have no eyes to see; and let peopic drift who are either too uoskilled to sui! or ov luzy to row!’’—and with this scat» tered shot she marshaled the forlorn pic: nicers to the station, and busied hersel! on the way home ia arranging a children’s birthday party, a round of culls, a charity concert, und the family meals for the coming week.

Of course she came out strong op holiduys and special oceasions’ A thanks- giviog dinner was her delight, Every dish, of course, and the people who wer to 1—where each one was to sat, anc what games they were to play to setth their dianer —were all clear to her miao tro months beforehand. The Chris:mse holidays were only occasions for the pe:f r- tisuced oi parts already mentally rehears~ ed. Avythiog that interfered with he: plans, aud came in the way of a su: prise, was accorded a grudging welcome. Thiag- that “happened”? she had no great Opivion of as she grew older, and he habits became more fixed. And asa large share of the good things of life come t» us inthe way of what her husband called “happeustances,” her philosophy had mauy severe tests. To plan for pleasure only to reap disappoiotment, aod then to mect happiness quite unexpectedly on the road, had a teodency, she declared, to be a little one’s estimate ot intellect.

Sometimes it was the unsystematic James who was tired—as when her plan- failed to dove-tail on his caleulations, or she “carried the thing too far,” as he ex- pressed it, On one occasion they were tu move; and as she had planned to dircet the whole work of packing up, of course —such is life !—sbe was taken sick. But her will koew vo idness, and from her bed she dictated the coutents of every box and barrel, uctil a terrible headache compelled her to leave the rest to the gare of the odds and ends, As she lay moaning involuntarily, with hot com- presses on her head and the house was nusbed to stillness, her husband saw u elight motion of her hands, and heard ber parched lip whisper his nume. Bending dowa teaderly to catch her words, and eeusing his fuunieg for a moment, he heard her say: PF

‘“{—was thinking how we could carry the—fatirons. Couldo’t you.”’

This was too munch. James rushed from the room and sought the open air, where he indulged himself in familiar re- terences to various h athea gods and dead military heroes, including “ great Caesar’- ghost,” with a variety of emphasis aad gestures. Donot judge bim harshly. He was only a man.

Mrs. Mzrlowe’s girl was a boy— he fourth of the series, a new but not improv- ed edition. When he was pine yeurs old, and her eidest son was twenty-two, she sent a carefully made, but very yellow and old-fashioned assortmeut of girl sclething dowa to the Ubildren’s Home, with a sigh but no tears.

Vhe first son, u der the stress of unim- paring esergy, of masagement, went to college, pulied through alter a fashion, and immediately took his knowledge of Greek roots and cluss ¢ literature into a coal yard, where he made money io a maoner that proved his possession of the instinet for accumulation, and then used bis gains in a fashion that reflected no credit on his eukure.

The'secoud boy, impatient of study, went trom the high school to a newspaper office, and turned his mothers aoxious forebod. ings into # resignation that was as near to joy as she ever came when a plan miséarried, oy makiog 2 brilliant success in the pro- fession.

Tae third son, whom she had conse | erated to the ministry duriog(a revival | that occurred avout the time he was born, brought a sheep-ranch in Texas; and the euse with which be mastered the dialect of | that regioa affords little room to expeet | that he will come any nearer fulfilling his| mother’s hopes than is 1ovolved ia being a lasting subject for home missionary work.

Jimmy, the youngest soo, was intended | for the iaw, but he is just now driviag a} stre-tear, His beat towards horses was| stronger than his mother’s ambition in the,

i ;

direction of the bar.

Mrs. Mirlowe came near to the end of: life witsous making any plan for dying: | Consideriog that death is the most fear-, tully-certaiv thigg io the world, how few’ p.ople give any thoughtto it! Bat when | the inevitable change drew near, her ruliag’ passion came to the front.

“James, dear,” she said, “ you have

been a good husband to me, and I grieve to leave you, and take the last journey alone. iag soon, probably die to-morrow. Bury we ov Sun day, from the house ; no parade, no flower

I would like (naming six friends)

oorth room. Get Mrs. Clarke to stand at

‘the door, and tell her not to let in Mrs.

Perkins, nor Miss Stebbins, nor old Mrs. Larkins, who go to everybody's funeral, nor Su anna Cobb the gossip. They all dislixe me, and I them, but they will be sure to come swooping around when I sm gone. Half-past two is a good hour, so

that you can get home io time for tea. !

Now remember, dear—it's ty last plan. you know’’—and she smiled a poor, wap teary smile.

She did not finally pass away until Fri day—a little to her disappointment, they chought; but the funeral came on Sun- jay ; James thought it due tu her to insu ¢ that. Ose of the bearers named had the aaysfever, another fell on the day before ind broke his leg, and a third—a promi nent pillar of socicty—had suddenly left town on account of certain “ financial ir- ¢ gularities,”’

Mrs. Clarke was uot equal to the oc casion, at the door, so that the four dis» igreeable neighbors invaded the worth room, took an inventory of the contents through their fingers, and went down the street together atterwards, criticizing the dress and -nuffling at the pastor’s remarks, ifter the pleasing manner of their kind The procession got delayed, und Mr. M.r- lowe wa’ at hour late to tea.

“ Dear Fanoy,” be said, as he turned sadly away from his unta-ted food, ‘ she is living now on the perfec: plan. Thavk Giod tor the certainties of Heaven.”’
