A MINISTER OF THE ORLD.
BY CAROLINE ATWATER MAS N.
lav
'• I guess there's goin' to be a ood turn-
out to -day." It was Mrs. Westc tt, better
known in Thornton as '+ Lecty," he spoke
in a loud whisper, turning at right angles in
her pew to speak to Mrs. Barry i:+ the seat
behind her.
It was the first Sunday in Ju y, a few
weeks after Mrs. Castle's quilting party,
and nearly time for the morning service to
begin. The interior of the lit le church
was bare and dull, but it was sc upnlously
clean, and the dark green alind: closed be-
hind the tall, uncolored windows softened
the light, while they permitted pots and
bars of sunshine to strike throug+ hese and
these. Behind the pulpit on the gray wall
a group of fluted pillars were au ted in
fresco, the painter intending to onyey to
the congregation the illusion tha an alcove
extended backward at that point ; but. 'the
perspective was such that no chip: was ever
known to be deceived. Counting and corn-
ering those painted pillars, ho ever, was
the prime employment of those Thornton
hildren of tender years during tl e hours of
service, and they thus served a ! urpoee, if
+ot that entertained by their designer.
f here wasa black hair cloth sofa i• front of
he pillars behind the mahoga y pulpit
d at one side sto d a small unsteady
able, on which this morning had been
+laced a painted glass vase of " huiidred-
eaf" roses. At the opposite e. d 'Of the
hurch, in a high gallery, behind a Tailing
:.nd a green curtain, were the sin t ers' seats
nd the organ. j '
The congregation did not incroa:e rapidly
or even very perceptibly, but one after an-
ther small groups of iwomen and children
nd young girls came' quietly in : nd' took
heir seats, while at ;intervals, a ter, each
roup, a sunburned pian or boy ould slip
nto the end of the pew beside his -" women
olks," having disposed of his h. rse8, and
ad his Sunday merning chat with his .
eighbors under the I meeting-hou: a sheds.
The young girls were in most c::.es dress -I
d in'�vvhite ; with a liberal use of blue and
ink ribbons. Their 'faces wore look of
hyne s, amounting nearly to an : bsence of
xpreMsion. r. The older women oc ::ipnally
mile and nodded to those who sat', near
hem, and a few were chatting in hispers,
ut tere was, on the whole, a sob r silence
hrouhout the room. On the to •le below
he polpit a bar of sunlight touch : d to 'an
Imost mystic splendor the silver v: ssels and
he snow white linen of the - c • mmunion
ast Which was this morning spre: d before
he people. Seeing this, a more i' 1 pressible
erson here and there sat with hes slightly'
ent, but the greater part abstat+ed front
von this degree of expression. Emily
Merle, in a shaded corner, had at since
4king her seat, with her forehead dropped
upon her hand. Her father, a•whi e -haired;
i enerable man, sat beside her wi h • ;closed
ryes, and with a devout expressio • upon his
:ce. ' I -
Meanwhile, as the congregation raduallys
icreased, Lecty continued her "hispered
• bservations, saying now :
"•Hayin's over and harvestin' h: in;'t be-
-,un yet, and there isn't anything to. keep
olks from corrin' to meetin' if th - ' wanted
o''' That's so," returned Mrs. Bar y ; " by
ext Sunday the men '11 say the h • rees have

in our south lot, and Amasa says he shall
egin cuttin' there to -morrow mor • i g, and

let-up, not till•the wheat's all in. Then,
suddenly interrupting herself, she t uched
ecty's hand, a hick hung over the ' back of
he seat, and which held a sprig o fennel,
nd whispered with lively intere• t, ' Say,
c, who's that ?" .
Both women were looking now a a small
ompany of people who were pasai g up the
entral aisle -da man and two ladi s, one of
'hom was leading a child.

uestioned Mrs. Barry.
" I don't know," Lecty coni•ssed re•
uctantly, adding, " Hush ! th re' the

The small organ was piping : hriily as
tephen Castle walked up the aisl, ascend -

sudden hush semed to fall upon t e people

erry -he might be in his everyd: y stood,
owever free and accessible in his mil,istra-
: ions to the Thornton people as th : it p.stor,
tephen Castle was always regrded by
hem 'with reverence, as one istlnctly

inary conversation with him on he I Sab-

Standing thus, with Stephen Castl: across

1 MONTREAL, A u$t 2 til, 1895,
GENTLEMEN —There such a change
is my mother's health at 'I c nnot re-
istrain myself from w iting y u. She
'suffered- for years past with 04 chronic
!headache, accompanied vith a disordered
stomach. She was weak and irritable,
!and we thought she was going into s -de-
'cline. For three, week she has been
taking a course of Sc tt's Sarsaparilla,
which was recommended, to her by Mr.
McGale, Druggist, Montreal. Her head-
ache is now but a mem ry, her appetite
is goad, and she has ga' ned five pounds
in weight in twelve ays. She is a
different woman, and I eel that you in
God's hands, have been the means of re-
storing her to health. I ,shah always
recommend Scott's S.rs parilla to suffer
ers from head or ';di . estive troubles.
Thanking you again' I c ose.
Yours since sly, -
Hortense Gaviliere.
Scott's Sarsaparilla is a concentrated
extract, pleasant to the taste, and is
taken m small doses. lIt is the finest
remedy for disorders of the stomach and

and skinldiseases arising from impurities

to each other at the end of the service that
they " never saw Elder Castle so much en-
gaged as, he was this morning,"
When the congregation broke up Stephen,
contrary± to his custom, remained for a few
minutes in the pulpit. He knew if he min-
gled,

gled, as hsual, with the people that he must
greet MIL Deering, whom he had met be-
fore, an

must meet the face of that stran-
this, for some reason he feared,
Strangerswere rarely seen in the _little.
church at Thornton, and the women stood
aside and watched with half averted but ob-
servant eyes the two ladies ' who followed
Mr. Deering down the aisle, and out from
the church to the horse block, where a man
was sitting in a handsome covered carriage
holding a pair of well- roomed horses.
'Young Mrs. Deering and h r child received
their share of attention, especially from the
young mothers who were interested in the
dainty gown of the little girl. It was the
young lady who ccomptnied Mrs. Deering,
however, who w s most ' intently observed,
and there were's me who, teeing her that
morning and net er seeitag her again, could
still, years after,i recall the grace of leer
Blender figure, the exquisite color and tex-
ture of her gown, the faint fragrance that
passed by with her, and thle brilliant light
of her smile.
Mrs. Barry, ,upon whom none, • of these
things were lost, turned ba k at the door
shut upon the - stranger, and looked at
Lina, who had just co a down from the
gallery and was standing, in her thick
white cotton gown and pinkribbons, with
something of disapproval in her eyes. _ She
was a pretty gir ,everyb d, said so, and she
had a nice fair kin, bu nothing would ever
make her look like that, ellen . her mother
was admitting. t was j .st then that Emily
Merle carne by ith an arfnful of library
books, for it was time for tie session of the
Sunday school to open now, and with her
clear, untroubled voice said :
" What a beautiful; w man that was,
Mrs Barry 1 It was a' pleasure to look at
her." -
To which Mrs. Barry replied with a
shade of coldness : —
" Why do you think eo ? I should never
have thought of calling her beautiful—she
was so dark."
Emily Merle made Ito rely. -
On. the Wedne rday following Stephen
Castle was driving is hay arinare Doll, be-
tween nine and ten in the morning, along
the turnpike road, r the e d`stage road, as
it was often called, between Thornton and
Pembroke. 'Beside him. in' his single car-
riage sat Mrs. Castle in. h ' best gown,with
a look of lively but restr 'ned interest on
her face. -
The morning wenbre4 bless with heat
already, and the dust f oni their wheels
settled heavily upon the tU3gled weeds and
branches by the :road side{ The pine and
spruce trees exhaled a pringent fragrance
under the keen July sure, tt ld on the more
distant hills shaded to a most a blueish
black in its early light. It as alenidsummer
day.. -
" It's going to be a prett hot day for a
wedding, Stephen. Look flow Doll feels the
heat already," remarked 11• rs. Castle.
" The warmest day yet, (I think," Step.,
hen replied, in a tone which said plainly
that the weather did not interest him vivid'
ly.: His face wore an abstracted expression,
which his mother perceived, and so kept
silence for some moments. Whether it was
the close sympathy betw ten them which
made the same thoughts, cgmmon to both
without cords, or whether itwas accident,
when Mr:. Castle spoke again she touched
the subje: t of Stephen's innermost thought.
" I wo: der," she said, leiter they lead
driven a mile in silence, " whether the
Deerings won't most. 1 kely come t.
Sarah's edding ? I shou d most think
they wo Id, George ;Allyn being their
tenant fo so many yeas. What do you
think ?"
" Very likely they may b there," Steph-
en repli d, and again t ey ode on . in sil-
ence unci they came in igh of a low,brown
.g
fa,rmhous. near the road,wit an orchard on
one side nd a smooth, gree yard on the
other, slo • ing dowe to a vegetable garden.
Contrary to custom, the frontoor of the
Louse wa. in use today, and stood open,
showing :hat an event of'.' impor ante was to
take plat , and accordingly St phen drove
up to the front steps, instead o to the kit-
ehen door, as was his autowhen making
pastoral calls. George Alle�ri, the'' father of
the girl whose wedding day t was, stood in
his shirt sleeves ready to ret thein, and to
take the horse around to the barn, and
Stephen, after a moment° elay, followed
his mother into the hour . trite smell entry
had a close smell of new ildloth, and con-
tained no furniture beyor>dn oblongleaved
table, covered by a red . tiki4 black I %rated
cloth.. On the table stowaicrimson fuchsia
in full blossom.
Stephen laid his straw at on the table
and went into the square room at the left,
called the parlor, which wa full of heavy
odors of flowers, and clo:el shut and shad-
ed as if for a funeral.' he room was of
moderate size, and conta •e besides a few
chairs and tables, a new melodeon and a
polished sheet -iron stove which was freely
decorated with branches `.f sparagus. The
carpet was in violently- on ranting shades
of red and green, and fel ro gh and uneven
to the feet by reason of s underlining of
hay. I
When Stephen entered he room there
were ten or twelve women tending about
its'outside limits,with all of hom lie shook
hands, and thenwithdrawii g to a - corner
behind a small, table, he stood silent, a
small, morocco -bound book in one hand.
His look and attitude plainl indicated his
disinclination to the small to k with which
the women were trying to $1 up the time of
waiting, and respecting Ids wishes -and
standing in especial awe df him as probably
passing- through mysterious mental condi-
tions' appropriate to the discharge of a high
official function, they lefthini to himself.
Very soon there was a flutter in the little
entry, and Mrs.- Allen, in a tidy gown with
a little lace about her throat, and e. bit of
pink geranium in her bosom, ushered into
the parlor Mr. and Mrs. Deering,' accom
