Norman -.lived together as. liuisb:ind und wifj.-jmd they,seemed as happy now as in' the d:ty!s of the honey inoon. True, they had amass ed little wealth .excepting., tliat jier- tuining totheHuind and liejirt, but John .was stfjady and industrious, arid-his family never hud wanted' for the necessaries of lif. 'Five 'beitutifuil children had been, given them, and notwithstanding tho additional expense which their maintenance brought^ upon him, John but worked the harder nnd enjoyed it the more. . The eldest was now a young lady alxiut eigh teen, a beautiful, fair-haired, blue- ami as loveable in she was lovely in a]> peanyice. Hkrry, tfie only j son, was a handsome, high-spirited boy of fourteen, and the two youngest, Annie and L'ora, .were' beautiful little girls, six and eight .years old. best beloved in the fanii- ly. gi'Wip was Nina, a little deform ed, girlj of about ten years. Her spine-was diseaed and there, was an unsightly lump on her back that camied people to gaze at!ber, with wonder and curiosity. She had al ways been an invalid and required constant (aire and attention, but she was; so^patient and affectionate that to wait Upon her whs but a labor of love.'- - , ' ' John .'Norman-, had been- blest with good health, anil-had been a hard working man iill his days. The thought,of the dear ones at home dejiendeut upon bis labor nerved him to strenuous exertions. He had given his- eldest daughter, Jennie, all the advantages for a good education^'aiid well had- she improved them. . She was prepar ing, herself, for a teacher; ' Harry, lie'was ihtending'to send to college. 1'hg boy was fond of learning,'and the ambitious father lioped to imake of him a Professor, a StatesjiiAh, or BOiiietliing still more honorahlo aifd brilliant. - f .-* . But change and sorrow, ever busy in tbis._world of' ours, must needs visit this happy home and disturb its sweet.domestic felicity. Almost without a warning John Norman was stricken .with disease and laid upon a bed of death. All. the despairing anguish of wife and children^ alii; the loving miniBtrai tious that were bestowed upon'him could [not-detain his spirit from..its bearveniy pilgritoage, " --V It will be vain to attempt to de pict the anguish bf that widowed .mother and those orphan children. There had" never been a death"in ihe'fumil'y before, and it would be long ere even the firfit'bitterness of theif "grief would wear away.' Pcor littlfe Nina was the greatest suffer er, f The others had occupation which .served to divert their minds in a, measure, but Nina could do nothing,from his WagsW, so she was at aloss to comprehend his mean ing in those Inst words. She could only think that his mind must bare been'. wandering, *nd | the words were..suggested, by-t.be destitute condition of the faniily. - . . A heavy burden" fell at once upon the shouldei-s {of Jlrs. Norman ; and the tender; loving sympathy and assist;vncv> that had formerly lightened every, burden"' of' more than, half its. weight was bora to de pend tipon no longer.- ; Hard tTines, everi want, ere]it in among them. '. Mrs. Norman could do Ijttlo herself towards the support of the faujily, for Niii:vs; jfuiling licud til-'required Tier 'iiiq'tber's almost constant attendance. Since., her /ither's de.itli s.oiiow'and loneliness had so preyed: upQn.thq child/tuat she seemed fast; sinking into a. de-.J cline; and added to iheir qthor ex i penses wiis-tbiit'jo'f medical assLst- ' anci) for .Nina. All thrfsitpjwt of, tlio faniilj- de volved ujion Jennie and Harry. The funner obtained a situation as teacher with ui limited salary, while" the latter found a phico its crralid boy in a stoi-c where ho cotikl little more than make, bis own livi^ig. Iluiry was obliged now to give tip all thought of going to college un less his own unaided exertions could i,-ike -fiiin1 there, but he.'made no -complaint, and manfully labored to help his'mother and sisters in every possible Wiiy. . Jennie a slender, delicate girl, little used to bearing Jieavy .burdens, and her1 mother soon:-saw by her paling; cheeks and diminish ing appetite that her health too was fai'ing. It was not oiily the labor that told'ujion be;!- constitu- tion.it -was the trouble, the sleep less nights and the i>erplei:ing bur-' den that haunted; her sleopiug or waking. Her mother, in- much anxiety, suggested that: she should rest for liwhile- and give herself a chance to get lietten' " Rest, mother, in our eircuiii- stances! No, indeed " was the re[)ly. " We can hardly live how, and ] I don't- know what would be- ctflTTfj of us if lis'hoirfd try to rest." The regit It of hei; continued labor Was a sudden prostration .in illness that .obliged her to give up her school, and for a time confined her ioiber.-bcd. Heavier still grew the burden_;on the shoulders of-Mrs: Norman, her hollow eyes and the, care-traced lines of.her face hinting but too plainly of a premature old age and a spely descent to the grave. She could see'n6 way but they must sacrifice their home to pay the fast accumulating debts that crowded upon, them. Harry could fullyappreiate their condition, and did everything in his power to help.his mother" and lei-sen her burden, but it was littl enough that he could do. " Mother," he said one evening as they, sat together talking over the family diliiciilties; "X have thought of a way that'I meaii to try to get some help: I meau to go to some bf father's friends;and ask them to help us for a while un til I get able: to; do more and then T can jiay thefh; No^ you know Mr. Martin, the lawyer, and Mr. Green, the .merchant, aro both wealthy men audthoy both thought a great deal of fatherX I think' they would help us, and perhaps their influence might get others to do something. , If yon think best. I will go to them tomorrow and try." It was humiliating to the proud spirit of Mrs. Norman to allow her boy to go about soliciting alms, for it was nothing less* that Harry pro posed to do. IJitt her r necessities wtei-e so grea^ that she at last-conr Bented. Full ' of 'Jiis plan' Harry arose early and started out to cull on the gentlemen of whom bo ho]>ed to get assistance. .'! He called first at the offico ,of Mr. Martin, and it was with pleas-' ure that he found Mri Green thel-e also, transactingsomo business with tbe lawyer,, . j '..'." ' .. ' _ ? . Mr. Martiq was a bland^pleasant spoken man. \ One gi*eat: cause of bis success in his business was said to be 'his .faculty of crOSBHquestion- ing and utterly eonfusihg a wUt ness, without loshig hi own temper a few yeara.1" pMr. Martinistroked his chin porn phtcentlj iw he said, " Indeed,'imy. - - -'" " I'd |>e glad but I have ily of my own- that needs all the n cans utmy commund." "I woiddh't have thought of askin * for help if we were all well,1? said Harry, a . choking sensatioii rising in his throat, " but my two> sister i are sick and it takes mother all of her tipie to care for them, and there is nobody to earn anything but n: e.
