A Restoration
By BARBARA PHIPPS
When I wfi i a girl of twelve 1 one
day looked in a mirror aud was struck
with the difl'erence between my ap
pearance and tliat of my brothers and
sisters. While they resembled one an
other, I looked like none of them.
Their hair and eyes were black; mine,
was auburn. They were stocky of fig
ure; 1 was teller thau any of them
and lithe. Besides tt^esc differences,
their faces were unretlued; mine, I was
pleased to notice, was rather pretty. I
was also better dressed than they.
It did not exactly ocvur to me that I
had been bom of other parents, but
from that time I began to Buspect that
there was something In me different
from what was in them. When I was
fourteen my motber. who was as differ
ent from me ns the others, told me that
t must earn by own living. At the
same tlm * she confessed that she was
not my mother. She saM that when 1
was a baby 1 bad been given to her to
be taken care of, and up to that time a
certain sum of money had been paid
her regulnriy for my keep and a spe
cific amount to be spent on my clothes.
These payments had been stopped, and
this was why 1 must shift for myself.
Since the day 1 looked fn the giar.
and discovered the difference between
me and the others of the family I grad
ually lost whatever of affection I had
felt for them. When therefore she
whom r had supposed to be my mother
informed me that I must earn my own
living 1 was coutent to leave them. I
found a position as nursemaid for a
litMe boy two years old and lived In the
house where 1 was employed.
The mother of my vharge was kind
to me. and one duy I told her my story.
She was'very sympathetic aud told me
'that my experience", together with my
appearance and a uatlve refinement
there was in me, led htr to believe that
I was the iblld of persons of the upper
class. This Is ail she said to me. I
wondered If-she would not offer to help
me find my parents, but she did not
When I spoke of trying to find them
she said Thiit It would be like hunting
for a needle to a haystack, especially
slUP they did not wish to be found.
Were this not so they would seek me.
The fact' that my allowance had been
cut off was especially discouraging.
Had It not been for this last men
tloned fact I believe i should have
made an -effort to find those of my own
flesh and blood, though I don't know
how I could have made a beginning
As it was, l was obliged to be content
with my lot. The only objection to It
was that I had a feeling in me that I
bad been born in a higher sphere than
that of nursemaid.
One day wheh l was seventeen years
old my supposed mother came to-" see
me audbtold me that a great change
had taken place With regard to me.
She was commissioned to- take me to
my parents.
"But." she said, "they don't know
where you are. and it-depends upon
me whether you reach-them, or not If
you go to them you will be rich and
can afford to pay me for what I do for
you. "Here is a note for $10,000, flue
when you come of age, a year from
now. If you will sign it I will riot only
return you to your parents, but will
furnish the evidence that you are their
child."
i referred the matter to the father
of my Charge, and he said that It seem
ed best that I should sign it.-I being a
minor, it would not be legal anyway.
I signed the note, and the same day
the woman drove with-me to a hand
some house, and on entering I was re
ceived by a lady who toolj me In her
irms and wept over me. I had become
used to noticing my appearance in con
trast with those of my own supposed
station, and no sootoer did I see this
lady than 1 knew by my resemblance
:o her-that she was my mother. Her
aair and mine were the same shade of
luburn.
Later a gentleman came and took me
>n his lap and caressed' me. He was
ujy father.
It was many years before I got all
the reasons for my having been put in
charge of the family with whom 1
grew up. My father made a Claudes
tine ma&rlage with one to whom his
parents were opposed. Soon after I
was born my father consented to ab
Jure his wife, and I, when born, was
bustled off without its being known to
my grandparents that my mother had
been married or I born to her. My
parents agreed to all this, expecting
that it would be temporary. But my
grandparents were relentless, and my
parents, becoming poorer and poorer,
at last were unable to reihit my allow
ance My grandfather was finally
taken 111 and on his deathbed relent
ed. He had left his money to charity,
but at the last moment changcd his
Will, leaving the property to his son.
Immediately after his death my par
ents sought me. It turned out that my
supposed mother had received .$10,000
for my return. The fact that I had
also been forced to pay the same
amount was not pleasing to my father,
and he thieatened to prosecute the wo
man for fraudulent conduct unless she
surrendered the note I had signed
This she did.
For a long while*, after the great
change in my life T could no nothing
but think about my newborn happi
ness, and it seemed that my father and
mother were bent, on makiug up the
many years they had been deprived of
their child by the affection they lav
ished on me.
All this occurred many years ago. 1
km now happily married.

The Gegenschein U the nam a given
to one of the most Inexplicable objects
known to astronomers. It Is visible In
the night sky under favorable condi
tions, Is rounded in outline and is situ
ated always exactly opposite the place
of the sun. It has been termed by one
etiinicni astronomer ~n son oi comet
ery or meteoric satellite" attending the
earth. He supposes it to be composed
of a clouil of meteors situated about a
million miles from the earth and re
volving around It It In a period of just
one year, so that the .sun and the me
teors are always on opposite sides of
the earth. It is estimated that the
size of this ghostly satellite may bo
nearly the same as that of the planet
Jupiter—1. e., about 80,000 miles In
diameter.

What would she do for a heart?
