FARMER HETTY.
BY. MATTIS DTIII ta1TTa.
Hester Brand stood in her cool, clean
dory, • linen apron tied aruuoo1 her
plump waist, her round arcs bare 1.1 the
ribuw, working • huge bowl of fresh,
•e.et butter into dainty prints, each
stamped with a ruse tau top.
There We. Du sham shout Hester's
pnots. A good 16 ounces :o the pound,
every one of 'cut. No sham about Hea-

ter either. She was just what she pre-
tended t., be, and greatly respected by
everybody, notwithstanding a small in-
chnatiou to have her own way 'which
gave some folks neon to all her •tub•
hero. But Hefty's head was usually
MK in the right direction, and if her
tongue did grow • trade sharp now and
then, everybody knew that a good, king
bean lay beneath.
A comely woman still, spite of her
elm and forty years. She was • plea -
mut object to hook upon as she stood in
the inviting dairy. Se thought a stal-
wart farmer who presently appeared in
the du..rway, and rather awkwardly ad•
dressed her.

Hester looked up. and pausing a mo-
ment in her work, answered :
"Meriting, Nathan. Why didn't you
g to the house f"
"I did, tint thing. Hefty. Lindy
said I'd find you out here."
"Well, you have found me, but I
don't receive callers in my dairy. I
never can teach that stupid Lindy any-
thing."
"Wal, I ain't agoin• to pester ye long,
child," said her suitor good naturedly.
"I jest want to speak to ye on a little
matter o' business, if so be as you're
agreeable.'
"(:,'long and tit down ..n the side

Hotly,- and with a whimsical twinkle in
his blue eyes, Nathan Strong took him-
self off to the house.
Hester, with a faint little pucker of
impatience on her brew, took her own
time to finish the print and set the whole
crockful into the stone trough, where the
bright water from • living spring rippled
through the dairy and kept all things
fresh and cool in the hottest weather.
"I'll bet a cent Nate etrcne has tot a
fool '• idea in his head aeaut,' she wlilc-
elnized as she drew down her sleeves.
"It he has. he'll go home with acother,
that's •II I're got to say :"
Stepping at the kitchen door to bid
Lindy go to the dairy and wash up the
butter things, she went around to the
porch where Nathan waited for her.
"Will yuu go into the house 1' she
asked.
"No, thank ye, ef you don't mind.
we'll jest stay out here. The 1 melt o'
them vines is Sorter sweet like, an' I
kinder fa:;cy sittin' under 'em."
".Just as yeti please," said Hester,
seating herself in a splint-br.ttumed
chair. "All well o 7 er to your place,

Hester frowned and thought, "He
needn't think I'll ge keep his house for
him." but she said nothin•f.
Nathan, who wan a bachelor and own-
ed the farm joining Heater's, saw the
frown, and understood it. He eaietly
went on.
"\Val, I said I'd come on a little
business, th's runrnn.'. Wait ye thinktn'

"Why, I hardly know, Nathan. 1 -es,

"I reckon I might as well let you have it
as not. I'd better take grain. We b
won't be apt to raise a• much as corn- w

"i'm much obleeeed to ye," said Na- a

The general verdict is that Munro is abreast of the
