Net a dollar would he spend that was

his horror. So he paid cash for every

every nail in his bit of a house, and set -

grub together enough more to buy a few
additional boards and ahingies, end pay
the money down.
That time, never came; he died in
the course of a. few years, after a linger-
ing illness, and only had enough saved
to pay his doctor's bill and funeral ex
penses, and leave his wife and daugh-
ter entirely without debt in thein little
fragment of a house on the big sorry lot
of la,nd.
There they had lived, mother and
daughter, earning and saving in various
little petty ways, keepingtheirheads
sturdily above water, and holding the
dreaded mortgage resolutely off the
house for many yeas. Then the mother
died, and the daughter, Martha Patela,
took tip the little homely struggle alone.
She waa aver seventy now,. a smell,

with sharp, black eyes, and a quick toss

This evening, after she had finished
putting her hone to rights, she fell to
investigating the contents of the bags
which two of the neighbors had brought
in the night before, with orders for
quilta, much to her delight.
"Mis' Bliss has got proper harnsome
piecea," said she—" proper harnsome ;
they'll make a good loakiin quilt. Mis'
Bennet's is good too, but they ain't quite
ekal to Mis' Bliss's. I reckon some of
'em's old." -
She began spreading some of the long-
est, prettiest pieces on her white -scour-
ed table. " Thar," said --she, gazing at
one admiringly, " that. jest takes my
eye ; them leetle ,pink roses is pretty,
an' no mistake. I -reckon that's French
caliker. Thar's some big pieces too.
Ler, what bag did I take 'em out on! It
rallttt hey been Bliss's. I mustn't
git 'em mixed."
She cut out some squares, and sat
down by the window in a low wooden •
rocking chair to sew. This window did
not have a very pleasant outlook. The
Mouse was situated so far back from the
road that it commanded only a rear
view of the adjoining one. It was a
great cross to Martha Patch. She was
one of those women who like to see
everything that -is going on outside, and
who often have excuse enough in the
fact that so little is going on with them..
e-3
It's a great diversion," she used: to
say, in her ince way, which was
more nervo-us than ill-natured, 'bobbing
her head violently at thesame time—
" a very great diversion to see Mr.
Peter's cows goin' in an' oat of the barn
day arter day, an' that's about all I do
see—never git a sight of the folks goin'
to meetin' nor nothin'."
The lack of a front window was a con-
tinual source ef grief to her.
" Wheu. the minister's prayin' for Use
widders an' orphans, he'd better Make
mention of one more," said she, once,
" an' that's women without front win -
She and her mother had planned to
save money enough to- have one some
day, but they had never been able to
bring it about. A. window commanding
a view of the street and- the passers-by
would have been a source of comfort to
the poor old woman, sitting and sewing
as she did day in and day out. Aa it
was, the few objects of interest which
did come within her vision she seized
upon eagerly, and made Much of.
There were some children who,on their
Way from school, could rattle a short
out through her yard, and reach home
quicker. She watched for them every
day, and if they did not appear quite as
soon as usual she would grow uneasy,
and eye the clock, and mutter to her-
self, " I wonder where thnra Mosely
children can be ?" When they came
she watched their progress with sharp
atteotion, and thought them over for an
hour afterward. Not -a bird which
pinned bar window eseaped her notice.
This innocent old gossip fed her mind
upon their small domestic affairs in lieu
of larger ones. Todayshe often paused
between her stitches to gaze absorbedly
at a yellow -bird. vibrating nervously
round the branches of a young tree
opposite. It was early spring, and the
branches were all of 8 light green foam..
That's the same yaller-bird 1 saw
yesterday, I do blieyen said she. "1
recken ha's gain' to build a nest in that
-elltim."
Lately she had. been watching the
progesa of the grass gradually springing
tiP all -ever the yard. One spot where
it grew much greener - than elsewhere
her mind dwelt upon curiously.
" I _can't ! make out," she said to
neighbor, " whether that 'ere spot iB
greener than the rest because .the sun
hies brightly thar, or because some
itini buried than"
She toiled steadily on the patchwork
quilts. At the end of a fortnight they
were nearly completed. She hurried
on the Iasi one one forenoon thinking
he would carry them both to their
owners that afternoon and get her pay.
She did not stop tor any dinner.
Spreading them out for one last look
before rolling them up in bundles she
caught her breath hastily.
" What hev I done ?" said she.
"Massy sakes I hevn't gone and put
Mis' Bliss's oaliker with the little pink
roses on't in Mis' Bennet's quilt 1 I hev,
jest as sure as preachin' ! What shell I
do ?"
The poor old soul stood staring at the,
quilts in pitiful dismay. " A hull fort-
uit's work," she muttered. " What
shell I do ? Them pink roses is the
prettiest ealiker in the hull lot. Mist
Bliss will be mad if they air in Mis'
Bennet's quilt. She won't say nothin',
an' she'll pay me, but she'll feel it in-
side, and it won't be doing the aquae
thing by her. No; if goin' to airn
money I'll airn it." '
Martha Patch gave- her head a jerk.
