YEARS AGO.
The weather had. been very cola even
for January. For days nobody had gone
out unless compelled by neoessityaand,
I've no doubt, our dear mother had
longed many times for a change which
would all w her noisy children to exer-
lungs and muscles oat of

eman up in the sky began

The eft rnoon slipped quickly by, the

settling dciwn clear_ end cold; when upon
the opposi e hill top there came in sight
a farmer's box sleigh, drawn by a span
of bay. hot ies. Hastily we drove our
sleds to th foot of our hill and reached
it just in t me for a ° hitch."

seemed n a hand but a huge wad of

from a sor of tower of bed quilts, hienketla, bud' lo -robes, comfortees, sur-
mounted by ashead piece enveloped in a
green anal red " Bee State" shawl.

At last t
one.garment after another,
all the world like peeling

bronzed bs exposure to the weather,

rather fiqu, re jew, ruddy c,heelts, full

broad foreh ad, and blue eyes, which
answered n y father's questioning look
by a merry twinkle. ! .
In a inon ant father extended both
his hands a d grasped the stranger's
most cordia ly.
" You are one of Aunt Anna's boys."
. A hearty laugh preceded the reply:
"1• wasn'l afeerd but you'd git it right,
Squire, give you time enough. I'm the
little Joe To on you taught long division
We knew tint Anna was a former
, landlady o father's when he Was 5i
pedagogue, that she lived forty or fifty
miles from 8--5great distance in those
days -and ar interest began to flag
alter othe eame in from the kitchen
and the c nversation was continued
about old ne ghbors of Whose existence
we had been Ignorant. We be ok our-
selves to th kitchen when naoth r soon
followed.
Presently, while Joe wadcaring for

" 1 m aur I don't know," replied
mothers co4iposediy stirring another

which was t be the piece de eesistance
of our evening ;meal.

" A wifed I did not know he was

" Squire Black!" exeleireed my
mother, empi, a:sizing her words still fur -
E
ther by a dalh. of the pudding stick,
which sent the mush flying over the
stove.
Jane was a fermer's daughter who
worked for n summers and went home
winters to help do up the spinning,
weavieg, an the like.
A mutual] satisfactory arrangement,
as Jane's ser icea were more needed at
home in the inter than in the sum-
mer, .and m ther ! thereby seeded the
boa,r4 and vages of a girl during the
I
winter when the werk Was not so heavy.
Moreover, in ther often said that Jane
put the work ahead so when she was
there that she could not keep her busy
the year rou d.
Al, help was help in those days. But
to return to 4ur kitchen. Father had
changed his osition, getting a little out
of the way of another charge from the
muslapot, wi ere the beating was going
on vigorously
After a pai se he began again.
"Well, ma Jane is not bound. to
marry Joe nless she wants to. But
perhaps she'l never get another chance
as good. Yo know yourself that any
cm° of Aunt ima's boys is bound to
make a good aan and a smart one."
" None too meat if he thinks to -
get a wife his wey," snapped Got
mother. '

and father ventured a ha e nearer th

What dil Joe see? ! '
Jane was, as father had e d, undeni
ably homely.
She was tall and angular. Her feet
and hands were large. Heir , air was a
trifle too red for euhurn and too yellow,
for gold. "Carroty" is the roper de-
scription. f
Her light complexion sva freckled,
but her cheeks would have a aarned the
roses. Her eyes were grayic. her, nose
had grown very long, anld• then, as if
wishing to make amends for that mis
t
hap had shaped , itself i a decided
pug. Her mouth was large d always
smiling, and smiling showed what. was

Her dress was of bIbinenel, every'

The hotir or two unt 1 inuer was
spent in viewing: eud nosing the'
stock, in telling the Roan news-, and
in talking over Uncle To 03 Cabin,"
which was then appearing a. serial, in
all of which Joe too* his pr senSibly

• After we were all done 811d, enly there
came a break and an awkwar1 pause in
the conversation. Joe cleared iS throat,
but without other sign Of mbarrass-
ment, began : I
" Miss Holton, I! see sornebody has
already told you what I?'d come for,
and it's right I should tell on some-
thing about myself. .The e uire here
will tell you about my folks.
