A na* tqr« ss far from suspicion a* nert pror- cd aa uncorrupted aad locorruptlbld heart. . It was her custom ID tba long winter evenings, when her hunhand, deeply en- gaged in bit bdsinetf ftHtdrs, was absent, to prepare for bit return a delicious tit* tie lupfMr, and then awaiting bit return, to dream over hit latt words of lore; for Clara was « foolish little blonde, and certainly loved well, if not wisely. One eveulng the Wat surprised by a visit from t maiden aunt, who was noted for gotslp, and had heretofore been very tparingof her vlslrt to this house of' wedded blUs. Alatl what untold mis- eries have resulted from the venom of human tongue. Clara't aunt on thit oc- casion looked portentously dtimal, and after a few commonplace remarkt the launched at once into tbe subject matter of her discourse. "My dear,** said the, **I suppose you nre totally unaware of what it going on In the theatrical world? You have not heard of the extraordinary beauty of Mademoiselle Vera, the leading star at the theatre?" 4 * Aunt, you know my husband *t time Is so occupied. I dearly lore tbe theatre but I love my husband better, and I enn't enjoy mymlf when he i« toiling for me." "But did you never think it strange," wild Aunt Liza "that Xr. Johnson, who ia so Immensely rich, should be forced' to work MO hsrdf Why another woman would be wild with suspicion." "Oh, Aunt Li«»! M said the sensitive girt, as her ejos filled with tears. "I could uot inspect the man I hare mar- ried and loved." "Well, there are woman and woman, and you nre one of tbo most trusting lit- tle dean I ever met. I trust you will never hare any cause to repeat your fi- delity." Olara ant by the window at her house In Windsor, gazing at the star embossed heaven, with a vague feel- ing of uneasiness which the found im- powiible to reason away. There bad been cases where loving and faithful wives were deceived by those whom they cherished at tbe incarnation of goodness. She had read many a novel, with tearful us, wboretn those who teemed bett and noblest pro- ad bate and vile. She knew, in her short experience of life, that men were lured away by influences that they strlved in Tain to resist All these thoughts came to her, and with them a firm resolve to question her hut- band that very evening. Tho hours passed away, teeming cen- turies to the poor young wife who was thus rudely awakened from her dream of bliss by the venom ef a woman's tongue. At last the dock struck eleven, Olara heard tbo welcome step on the footpath anal was soon In her husband's arms. For an instant doubt snd suspense were at sn end. Gazing into thst noble face, reading truth snd love in those proud block eyes, it teemed impossible thst such a one could harbor deceit of create misery. Mr. Johnson consumed his supper with great relish. He was satisfied with the loving gsze of hit wife, and spoke but little; but astonishment was In store for him. "Herbert," said Olara suddenly, nerv- ously twining her hands, "what It t51t business thst detains you In tbe evening! Oh, do tell met Let there be no roort secrets between us, or I shall die 1" Mr. Johnson puthed hit piste from him snd regarded ber attentively. "My darling," ho asked, simply, "who has been here?" "No one—that is, Aunt Lixsf replied Olara, wondering. "Ab!"ssidMr. Johcson. "But Herbert you*h*te not answered me; you treat me with contempt * "Oh, no, my dear!" said Mr. Johnson, quietly; "not you. Come, love, you arc overcome by nerverousnest Snd ground- less suspicions. I promise you I wilt be more st home hereafter, and give to my little rosebud of s wife thst love which ber angelic disposition so justly desert There wss something in hit quiet, self- possessed manner thst set ClsraV tortur- ed mind completely at ease.

I OTjrhesrd enough to convince me that hs ia going to attend the partormanoe to-night. He Is cruelly deceiving >ou; sad I strongly advise you to uniuask bit viUisnv and separate from him. Affectionately yours, AtJHT LIZA." Clara crushed tha letter in her hands, and sst there looking at the fstt falling mow. It wss growing darker, snd be would soon be here. And then? Would sbe show him the letter and demand sn fiplanstlonf No. It would be met by equivocal replies. He wss s master Itt tbe art of deception, but thst night would end It forever. A> *be thought this, she felt a dull pain at ber heart—and the evening grew deeper. "Why, little wife, sre you sitting slbne in tbe gloaming?" It was Herbert's cherry voice, he bad entered unperceived. "Herbert!"—the tons wss forced snd hollow—"are you going out to-night T "Why, yes, ray dear—I might have told you this morning. I have sn im- portant engagement. It will not bo long now, pet wife!" What did he raoanf He could not tee tbe wolrd beauty of thst drally pale fajce st sbe bade him fsre well. It wss s gala nlgbt st tbs theatre. The benefit of Mademoiselle Vera, the fame of whose beauty and talent wss whispered, orchestra and gallery pre- sented sn animated scene. There was one there, however, whose Start was aching with pain. Yes, Mad- emoiselle Vera w«s beautiful; ami there was no mistaking the fervent admiration with which the wss regarded by oil, but more esj>eclally by the solitary oc- cupant of one of the boxes; and thit person Clara recognized as her husband. How changed he looked! Tbe oontamin* atlon 6t thst woman's presences scorned toftifoct him with fever; there wss an unnatural brilliancy in bis splendid eyes, notwithstanding which his fsce looked worn sncl haggard. He WAS never so at horrie. The curtslu fell st latt, snd tumultu- ous applause brought Msdemoise Vera before it. She Was greeted with flowers snd cheers, wblch were treated by tbe pampered beauty with proud indifference till at latt a bouquet more elegant than th« rest fell at her feet. She gave a st one of tbe boxes, kissed her hand to the occupant snd withdrew. Olara felt the building swim before her; but by a strong effort tbe controlled her- self, snd reached the entrance in safely. Shutting herself in ber carnage, the waited patently, nocli to the astonish- ment of ber ewadbmsn, sn unusually stolid Individual, quite averse to adven- ture*. Half an hour afterwards hore- ceived the welcome- order to drive home. Clsrs bnd seen ber husband emerge from the stage entrance with Msdemois elle Vera. A deadly pallor patted over ber countenance, snd sbe fain tod. On arriving st* home Clara proceeded to the drawing ro*m. As the opened the door a cry of astonishment burst from her nps. Mr. Johnson satin sn easy chair, reading. He looked good-humored ly, snd said, "Turn about it fslr play; where hat my pet wife been?" Clara sat do wo wearily. "Herbert,you csn deceive me no long- er* I wss st the theatre to-night. I. taw you, snd know all." M I wss not at the theatre to-night. Clara, I do not like Aunt Lizs; sbe has been here again," "Herbert, mm I mad? I saw you, snd —and that woman 1" Mr. Johnson advanced and took bit wife's btnd in hit. "My pet wife," he said quietly, "tbe person you taw. to night wss my twin brother. Tear* atfo be w*a obliged to lews the country on account of his par- ticipation in a mad escapade. Not- withstanding a long career of profligacy, I loved this erring brother of mine.

It Is colored with day, indigo aad other materials, I think thst {bit question of spurious teas being imported could beeffectually rem- edied by passing a law prereotlng the importation of colored teas. All inferior teas sre colored to make them look bet- ter than they sre. Tnere will be another step taken this winter that will do sway with much of thit trouble about tbe tell* ing or importation of adulterated or spurious teas. The opening of tbe Su- gsr sad Tea Exchange, which bat Una incorporated la tbis dty, it to take place In twenty days, sadwill be one step ia the direction of keeping up tbe standard of tea.

Everyone taid that Clara Johnson wasfoolishly fond of hvr husbtdd. A na*tqr« ss far from suspicion a* nert pror-cd aa uncorrupted aad locorruptlbldheart. .

It was her custom ID tba long winterevenings, when her hunhand, deeply en-gaged in bit bdsinetf ftHtdrs, was absent,to prepare for bit return a delicious tit*tie lupfMr, and then awaiting bit return,to dream over hit latt words of lore;for Clara was « foolish little blonde, andcertainly loved well, if not wisely.

One eveulng the Wat surprised by avisit from t maiden aunt, who was notedfor gotslp, and had heretofore been verytparingof her vlslrt to this house of'wedded blUs. Alatl what untold mis-eries have resulted from the venom ofhuman tongue. Clara't aunt on thit oc-casion looked portentously dtimal, andafter a few commonplace remarkt thelaunched at once into tbe subject matterof her discourse.

"My dear,** said the, **I suppose younre totally unaware of what it going onIn the theatrical world? You have notheard of the extraordinary beauty ofMademoiselle Vera, the leading star atthe theatre?"

4 * Aunt, you know my husband *t timeIs so occupied. I dearly lore tbe theatrebut I love my husband better, and Ienn't enjoy mymlf when he i« toiling forme."

"But did you never think it strange,"wild Aunt Liza "that Xr. Johnson, whoia so Immensely rich, should be forced'to work MO hsrdf Why another womanwould be wild with suspicion."

"Oh, Aunt Li«»!M said the sensitivegirt, as her ejos filled with tears. "Icould uot inspect the man I hare mar-ried and loved."

"Well, there are woman and woman,and you nre one of tbo most trusting lit-tle dean I ever met. I trust you willnever hare any cause to repeat your fi-delity."

Olara ant by the window at herhouse In Windsor, gazing at thestar embossed heaven, with a vague feel-ing of uneasiness which the found im-powiible to reason away. There badbeen cases where loving and faithfulwives were deceived by those whom theycherished at tbe incarnation of goodness.She had read many a novel, with tearful

us, wboretn those who teemed bettand noblest pro- ad bate and vile. Sheknew, in her short experience of life,that men were lured away by influencesthat they strlved in Tain to resist Allthese thoughts came to her, and withthem a firm resolve to question her hut-band that very evening.

Tho hours passed away, teeming cen-turies to the poor young wife who wasthus rudely awakened from her dream ofbliss by the venom ef a woman's tongue.At last the dock struck eleven, Olaraheard tbo welcome step on the footpathanal was soon In her husband's arms.For an instant doubt snd suspense wereat sn end. Gazing into thst noble face,reading truth snd love in those proudblock eyes, it teemed impossible thstsuch a one could harbor deceit of createmisery.

Mr. Johnson consumed his supperwith great relish. He was satisfied withthe loving gsze of hit wife, and spokebut little; but astonishment was In storefor him.

"Herbert," said Olara suddenly, nerv-ously twining her hands, "what It t51tbusiness thst detains you In tbe evening!Oh, do tell met Let there be no roortsecrets between us, or I shall die 1"

Mr. Johnson puthed hit piste fromhim snd regarded ber attentively.

"My darling," ho asked, simply, "whohas been here?"

"No one—that is, Aunt Lixsf repliedOlara, wondering.

"Ab!"ssidMr. Johcson."But Herbert you*h*te not answered

me; you treat me with contempt *"Oh, no, my dear!" said Mr. Johnson,

quietly; "not you. Come, love, you arcovercome by nerverousnest Snd ground-less suspicions. I promise you I wilt bemore st home hereafter, and give to mylittle rosebud of s wife thst love whichber angelic disposition so justly desert

There wss something in hit quiet, self-possessed manner thst set ClsraV tortur-ed mind completely at ease. '

Clara crushed tha letter in her hands,and sst there looking at the fstt fallingmow. It wss growing darker, snd bewould soon be here. And then? Wouldsbe show him the letter and demand snfiplanstlonf No. It would be met byequivocal replies. He wss s master Itttbe art of deception, but thst nightwould end It forever.

A> *be thought this, she felt a dullpain at ber heart—and the evening grewdeeper.

"Why, little wife, sre you sittingslbne in tbe gloaming?"

It was Herbert's cherry voice, he badentered unperceived.

"Herbert!"—the tons wss forced sndhollow—"are you going out to-night T

"Why, yes, ray dear—I might havetold you this morning. I have sn im-portant engagement. It will not bo longnow, pet wife!"

What did he raoanf He could nottee tbe wolrd beauty of thst drally palefajce st sbe bade him fsre well.

It wss s gala nlgbt st tbs theatre.The benefit of Mademoiselle Vera, thefame of whose beauty and talent wsswhispered, orchestra and gallery pre-sented sn animated scene.

There was one there, however, whoseStart was aching with pain. Yes, Mad-emoiselle Vera w«s beautiful; ami therewas no mistaking the fervent admirationwith which the wss regarded by oil,but more esj>eclally by the solitary oc-cupant of one of the boxes; and thitperson Clara recognized as her husband.How changed he looked! Tbe oontamin*atlon 6t thst woman's presences scornedtoftifoct him with fever; there wss anunnatural brilliancy in bis splendid eyes,notwithstanding which his fsce lookedworn sncl haggard. He WAS never so athorrie.

The curtslu fell st latt, snd tumultu-ous applause brought Msdemoise Verabefore it. She Was greeted with flowerssnd cheers, wblch were treated by tbepampered beauty with proud indifferencetill at latt a bouquet more elegant thanth« rest fell at her feet. She gave a

st one of tbe boxes, kissed herhand to the occupant snd withdrew.Olara felt the building swim before her;but by a strong effort tbe controlled her-self, snd reached the entrance in safely.

Shutting herself in ber carnage, thewaited patently, nocli to the astonish-ment of ber ewadbmsn, sn unusuallystolid Individual, quite averse to adven-ture*. Half an hour afterwards ho re-ceived the welcome- order to drive home.

Clsrs bnd seen ber husband emergefrom the stage entrance with Msdemoiselle Vera. A deadly pallor patted overber countenance, snd sbe fain tod.

On arriving st* home Clara proceededto the drawing ro*m. As the openedthe door a cry of astonishment burstfrom her nps. Mr. Johnson satin sneasy chair, reading.

He looked good-humored ly, snd said,"Turn about it fslr play; where hat mypet wife been?"

Clara sat do wo wearily."Herbert,you csn deceive me no long-

er* I wss st the theatre to-night. I.taw you, snd know all."

MI wss not at the theatre to-night.Clara, I do not like Aunt Lizs; sbe hasbeen here again,"

"Herbert, mm I mad? I saw you, snd—and that woman 1"

Mr. Johnson advanced and took bitwife's btnd in hit.

"My pet wife," he said quietly, "tbeperson you taw. to night wss my twinbrother. Tear* atfo be w*a obliged tolews the country on account of his par-ticipation in a mad escapade. Not-withstanding a long career of profligacy,I loved this erring brother of mine. Iaccumulated money by addititionsl laborwithout imparing that fortune which iatha events of my demise, of ngbt be-longs to you. I have finally paid bisdebts, and summoned him back to hitnative land. He has improved but little,I am sorry to say, but bis destiny is inhis own hand*, and he csn make or maxas he chooses* And now, my dear, sreyou satiftflod?"

Oh, Herbert, darling 1—csn yon for-give me, wreWb that I hav» been?"

"Oa one condition, Clara" ssid Mr.Johnson, smiling; "that you will neverlisten to Atmt&tea again."
