Don't speak to me about these matters, as you only give m pain." George Graham had prospered at a sailor, and oue day he came to Philadelphia, captain of a magnificent clippei ahip. He bad cargo consigned to a firm on Delaware avenue, and went to tin it counting house and was very politely re-ceived Captains were bigger people then than now. Glancing around he saw hanging on the wall a large key. Memory at onco recalled the house in the boatyard and his lost sweetheart. "You are looking at that key," said one of the partners; "well, that belonged to an uncle of mine named Grayley. It has a history, and when the old house w down I kept this as a memento." Graham was silent for a moment and then asked, "Do you know anything of tbe family that lived in your uncles for aecnrity atunsl n btr kick and a key like hammer, bat that ratty iron has a haftury, sod ta issn riafa A with s record of human pacta oua, oopes and fnultiet that once (txided and controlled the met of several people. There was a time when the Delawan front above Callowhul attest was bean tiful with fine ehrnbbery, and men in the boat and par yards worked unuVi the shade of big willowi whose loug brancbea trailed id the water. This war especially the cue at Q raj ley' timbet yard. The old rick house on the bank of the river wag covered with ivy and shadowed by a small (rrove of elms, made musical iu spring by the whibtlt of the bhvekbirda and martins. Here lived Martin beotz with his wife and daughter, lie was Mr. Orayley's man kept his books, paid the hands ami sold the timber. The office was in s corner room in the house, and in the wall was built the safe. It didn't pretend to be fireproof, but both old Gray ley and bis clerk believed that all the burglars in the state could not get into it, and every night he locked the door with serious mien and much deliberation, and then handed the key to Martin, who kept it till next morning. To one of our modern artisU it would be a pleasant hour's work to open tbe ol J strong box with a keyhole that you could put your three fingers in; but these weic primitive days, and old Martin felt safe as long as the key was in bis possession. Dentz was a German by birth, but his wife American, bred and born in Fiah-towAlthough the couple were not always accordant in opinion, on one subject they agreed, and that was about the beauty and excellence of their daughter Mabel, and parental judgments are often fallible, but there could lie no question ss to Mabel Uentz's merits. She was not only a good daughter but a very beautiful girl. No race in America produces more lovely women than the German Americans, and there could be no letter illustration of this than Martiu Uentz's daughter. She was not much liked by the neighboring girls, as they were rather a rough lot in those days, much given to promiscuous dancea that generally ended in a free fight among their admirers, so Mabel, by avoiding them, got the credit of being proad. She was assistant in a millinery store on Second street, and was never without an escort home, but very few were permitted to come to tho house, and tho girl herself was circumspect and as yet indifferent to the advances of any of her male acquaintances. She had two persistent suitors, both young men, one George Graham was a boat builder, a fair, manly fellow, and an excellent mechanic, but he was not handsome, and, whilea favorite with the old man, Mrs. Dentz had a very pronounced dislike for him. The other, Peter Daily, was a very showy young man, ostensibly a plumber, but he was seldom known to work; and yet he wore good clothes and always seemed to have plenty of money. He was rather good looking, but there was a shifty expression in his hard, gray eyes that was not prepossessing; but he was Mrs. Bentz's favorite. It was Martin's custom to hang the safe key over the mantelpiece, and it seemed to give him much pleasure to sit and watch it. He was given to moderate potations, and at times was boastful and indiscreet in speech. One Friday night the family were assembled in their one sitting room, and both Graham and Daily were present Martin was telling of a big sale of timber he had made for Mr. Grayley, and how the price, some $2,500, had been paid in that day. Daily's eyes looked more furtive than ever, and Mabel, glancing over her sewing, thought how mean his expression was at times, but the talk became general, and Daily soon left Next evening he was again a visitor, bringing with him a friend, a tall, thin showily dressed man; he had also brought Martin a bottle of brandy. Th was opened and the old man becan Suddenly a tremen-ou- s quite convivial crash was heard outside. The e party made a rush for the door, all but Daily's thin friend. He, quick as a cat, mounted a chair, and taking down the safe key substituted another, in looks much the same. The others came back in a few moments; it was only a pile of spars that had fallen no doubt the work of the bad boys that infested the wharfs. Daily and his friend went away and George Graham came in, and was soon deeply engaged in conversa- tion with Mabel. As was the custom, the parents withdrew, and George began to explain to Mabel his improving prostiects and bis desire that she should man-agin- FINE PERFUMER and TOILET ARTICLE. p t- 1 Taos) a aaf a UeatSB St Hel tie BataaaSn Tic - L, . bem turned on by s man who thought that was the thing to do.
