The fact was, Garth was in a predica- ment. He Was more in love than ever, but in his present circumetanoes marriage was Out of tlic, euestiot . i tow WaS he to , i ring home a wife to the old hinne, eh- ugledi as he was by a load of debt and ditheul ies ? Garth was perfectly honest in his in- tention -. He had mule .up his mind that Qi¼eeziie Marriott was the woman he iowc1d, but he had a man's horror.of . a long nggeuient. " What's the good of telli ig e girl you love her if yen can't • see your way clear to make her your wife ?" he always said ; and he acted on this opinion so thoroughly that his quiet withdrawal of attentions filled the girl's heart with dismay. " Would he be so cold anct distant with me if he really loved me ?" Queenie asked herSelf, "Re never comes to see me now, and if I go up to Church -Stile House he is always so busy, and seems as if he fears- to be alone with me: Does he think I Walit hinato pay me atten- tions if he has ceased to care for me in the way he did '.',`' asked t the girl, her breast he at the thought, and she mourned for the loss of her friend, and in her secret soul refused to be com- forted. ' _ But she knew nothing of the con - Ilia that went on -under that assumed coldness of manner that wounded her so - greatly. Garth founcl his life an thing but easy just now; to be sure, ruin i of long- er stared him in the face, but his debt was a secret torment to him, anc fretted his proud nature with a sense of positive injury. ' He .AVOltld. fain have drawn out as little as possible of the sum pl ced for his benefit; bat his needs were ressing. Scarcity of orders, the rise in t e. men's wages, the heavily freighted ac aunts of the cettages he had so lavishly provicted for his workmen, had obliged him to ex- pend already seeni or eight umdred pounds of the money. : The quarry was now in good working order ag in ; and in a few months ' the young i ulster of •Wartschtle trusted that he woul , be en- abled to repay the first instalme it,of the debt e and then, and not till then,would he open. his lips to speak any vords of, love. Garth. was capable of 'keeping an re - solation that he had formed. It was no fear of betraying himself that made him avoid Queenie; but the girl's presence was s sweet to him, and the longing to tell 'shat was in his heart was so great, that ijhe pain of such silence was mien - dura le to him. And so he quietly withdrew himself, and went on with his daily work as though no such thoughts were his; and Qaeenie, Meekly accepted he1T a,nish- meat and bore Langley's r proaches OR her unsociability as patient y as she could, until Langley discovered how matters were, and held her peace ever afterwards, like a wise woman, and pet- • ted and made much:of the girl when she came down to the cottage. And Queenie sawlittle of Garth, -only lifting her brown eyes timidly to his face when she int him in the village and he stopped to,exchan.ge a . greeting with her and Emilie, but he never encesaid, "Why do we see you so seldom at Church -Stile House ? but on y asked kindly after her's and .the child' welfare, and bade her wrap up Emmie pad cher- ish her now the bitter winter weather had set in. Queenie ate her Christmas - dinner at the vicarage, with only Mr. Logan and Miss Cesie, and her New Year' day was spent at Juniper Lodge. he Clay - tons were not present on eitheiF of these occasions; Garth had gene up 110 Landon to see Cathy, and Langley had spent both days at Karldale Granke in Ger- trade Chester's sick -room. A long sea- s= of suffering that no skill c uld avert or tenderness aleviate had set in for the unhappy- lady, and Langley' services nem in Constant requisition. - Now and then Mr. Chester ame over to Hepshaw. He always paid a visit to the cottage, and would go up, as a mat- ter af course, into Enemies lit e room, and sit for a long time by the 4mpty bed where his darling -had slept her little life away, and then he would come sorrow- fully down again, and. he and Queenie would talk softly of the child and her endearing ways. These visits always made Queenie feel very sad. - Time had not mitigated the father's heavy loss. He still mourned heavily for his little Nan. His florid face looted pale and haggard. A few thread/ o•f gray were clearly perceptible in the golden -brown beardl; but his eyes always lighted up with a look of tenderness When fit:teethe mentioned hit wife. 1 " Ah, my poor Gertie !" he wohla say; sorrowfully.

It is only 'Held my hand, Harry,' (!ir 'I shall soon be relieved, dear husba, id, when this attack has passed,' just that, and nothing more." . "Yes, indeed; Langley, c mot say enough in her praise. She sa s her self- control is wonderful's" "Poor Sea she is fighting away her life by inches. Vali cannot tell what a man feels when he sees his wife suffering and is helpless to relieve it.

Its narrow silvery- leaves and edible, acM scarlet fruit(like red currants), mark It as a tree or shrub worthy of in- troduction into the ornamental grounds of Canada and the Eastern States. Its sweet scented fiosvers (if like the S. Eheagnus argentea) and scarlet berries make it an object of interest in grounds, 'borders or hedges. It abounds here and on the Upper Missouri, and has been in- troduced into Minnesota. It attains .quite a Aize in the ravines of the Yellow Stone. Prof.. Macouin speaks of the berries as the most suitable for preserves of all the small fruits of the Northwest. Its long, sharp, partly concealed spikes, make it a terror to beasts of all kinds. The Buffalo berry4 its common name, is a contrast to its near relative the Silver • berry. The fruit of the one is small;the other large ; the one scarlet, the other • white and silverY ; the, one strongly acid, the other at mealy. stSeet. The contrast is as great asbetween the fruit of the Pembina berry (Viburnum •1 Opulus, Cranberr tree) and the Sheep berry. (Viburnum Lentago), both very common on the b nks of the Pembina River. The town of Peinbina on the Red River gets its name from the V. Lentago. . One of the niost abundant berries here is the Allielanehier Canadensis (Shadlaush,June berry or Service berry), the famous Satcatoon of the Indians. It extends from the Red to the 'Peace River, and is uniVersally eaten by bears, half breeds, Indians and settlers. It is !said to be the healthiest berry in userin Dakota. It has marked medicinal qualities. On the Laurentian Range, in the back woods of Canada, they are • used for pies .by the settlers, under the name of "Sugar Plums.' • In Canada I never saw them n such quantities as t out here. . 1 I enclose for yo 1 seeds of the Amor- ha canescens (Lead Plant), and Peta- lostemou violaceum (Pe.airieClover), both perennial herbs, - and 'distinctly marked in dry parts of Western prairies. , If you wish I Can send you seeds of Shepherdias. mentioned above.

A very tall girl wearing a Mother Hubbard dress stepped on a, platform scales at Coney Island, andinformed the proprietor that she wished to be weigh- ed. He placed a 200 -pound weight on the hook, and the suddenness with which it came down frightened him. Then he tried a 150 -pound weight with the same result. " Strange," he muttered, with a per- plexed look at the girl, "something must be wrong with the scales." -. Finally, after repeated attempts, he informed her, in a dubious tone of voice. that she weighed just 89 pounds. -- "Thank you," she said, handing him the nickel, "1 seem to be gaining," and she.tripped away. • ' • Then the amazed scaleman looked after her, and remarked,'" Some young feller will get terribly fooled by that Mother Hubbard dress."
