It w happened that Demon Bancroft was one of the directors m • saving's itnttttetlsa, situated in the ueat twin, and a000rddngly used to ride over there ursce or twice • month, to attend meetings of the board. On the neat mcwicm of this lucid, the Widow Wali sent ever to know if he could tarry her over with him, as she had a little buatnws to attend to there. The request was readily accorded Arriv ed in the village Mrs` Wells requested to be set down at the lank. '• Ha ' ha! " thought the deacon ; •' that means something." He said nothing, however, but deLermiuel to Dome back, and Lind out, as he could readily from the cashier, whet business she had with the bank. The widow tripped into the ottice, pre- tending to look very .onchalaat, Can oa give me small bills for • five - dollar d piece!" she inquired. " VI nth pleasure," was the reply.

AFTER A DAY of twigging labor, the Widow tl'elk sat at there in the sitting -room, with her feet resting upon the fender. "11 I ever ant so situated as not to have to work so hard," the murmured, " 1 shall be happy. It's a hard life, keeping boarders. If I was only as web off as Deacon Ban- croft Still the widow kept up her thinking, and by-and-by her fax brightened up. She had an idea, which she resolved to put into execution et the very earliest practieahle moment. What, it was the reader will dice cover in the sequel. " Henry," card else to herson the text morning, " 1 want you to stop at Deacon Bancroft's, as you go along to school, and we if he will call and see sec in the course of the rnoming or afternoon, just as he finds it most c nveutent." Dr:c,orl ilawroft was a little surprised at the summons. However,ahouteleven o'clock, he called ,n. The widow had got on the si nuer and haat leisure to sit down. She appeared a little emb•rreesed. " Henry told me that you would like to ser me," he commenced. •' 1.es, Deacon liaperoft, 1 do, but I'm very much afraid you will think strange o*4 it --at least of what 1 have to say to you." The deacon very politely promised not et be surprised, though at the same time his curiosity was visibly excited. "Suppose," said the widow, casting down her eyes- "mind, I am supposing • ease -- suppose • peraw should find a pot of gold pieces in their cellar, would the law have a right to touch it, or would it belong to them The deacon pricked up his ears. ' A pot of Kull pieces, widow : Why, unquestionably, the law would have nothing to do with It." " And the one olio had formerly owned the house couldn't come forward and claim it, could he, deacon'" inquired the widow further, with apparent anxiety. " No, madam, ungueetiona *4y not When the house was disposed of, everything went with it, as a matter of oourss. " I am glad to hear it, deacon. You won't think strange of the question ; but it happeued to occur to my mind, and 1 thought that I would like to have it satisfied." " l'ertainly, widow, certainly," maid the deacon, abstractedly. And, deacon, ae you are here, 1 hope you'll sop to dinner with us It will be ready punctually at twelve." "Well, no," said the deacon, mitts; "I'm obleeged to ye, but they'll be expecting me hone. " At any rate, deacon," sad the widow, taking a steaming mince -pie from the oven, " You won't object to taking a piece of mttos-pie. You most know 1 rather pride myself on my mince -pies." The warm pie sent forth such • delicious odor, that the deacon was sorely. tempted, and af•er saying " Well, really,' with the intention of refusing, he finished by saying, " Iln the whole, i gums 1 will, as it looks an nice." The widow was realty a growl rook, and the deacon ate with much gusto the gener- ous slice which the widow cut for him, and after a little more chatting upon mnimpnr tart esbjeotm, withdrew in some mental per pl.xit .

'• Did she give sep ream hr her in- quiries '" --- " No ; she said the only asked for cnri- nity. The deacon left the bank in deep thought. He came to the c,nclusioo that this "curi- osity" only veiled a deeper motive. He no longer entertained a doubt that the widow h.I actually found a pot of gold in her cellar, and appearances seemed to imitate that its proba elle value was at least equal to tive thouasnd dollars. The gold piece which she hal exchanged at the bank appeared to centinn this story. "• I rather think," said the deacon, com- placently, " I can see into a mdI.tone as far ae most people "--a statement flee literal truth of which I defy any one to yrs +tion, though u to the prime fact of people's being able to sec into a millstone at all, doubts have waw and then intruded themselves up- on my mind. Next Sunday the Widow Wells appeared at church in a new stylish 600040, which led to some remarks such an these— " How much vanity Inane people have, to be wine " ilow a woman that has to keep boarder for . living can afford to dash out with such a bonnet is more than 1 can tell. I should think that she was old enough to know better." The last remark was mule by a young lady just six months younger than the widow, whose attemput to catch a husband hal hitherto preyed utterly unavailing. " I sippose," oontinued the same young lady, " she is trying to catch a second hus- band with her finery. iBefore 1 could coin descend to such means I'd - I'd drown my• self.'. In the last amiable speech the young lady had unwittingly hit upon the true motive. Thew Wow was Intent upon catching I deacon Bancroft, and she indulged in a costly ton - net, not because she supposed he wculd be caught with finery, but because this would strengthen in hie mind the idea that she hal stumbled rpm hidden wealth. The widow calculated shrewdly ; and the display had the desired effect she antici- pated. Monday afternoon Deacon Bancroft fonnd an errand that called him over to the widow's. It chancel to be about tea time. He was importuned to stay at tea, and, somewhat to his own surprise, actually did. The politic widow, who knew'the deacon's weak point, brought on dee of her hest mince - pies. a dice of which her guest partook of with lest. " You'II take another piece, 1 know," said she, persuasively. "Really. I am ashamed," said the deacon, but he pease.' his plate.
