DEAN HOWELLS, ONA.13Thlt XI Continued. " Oh, there isn't - anything more. You know-how Miss Kilburn has been round throwing ridicule on Brother Peck, because he wants the shop -hands treated with com- mon decency, and my idea Wee tO get the two together and set how she would feel." Dr. hiorreli laughed at this with what Annie thought wan wanecessary malice ; but he stopped suddenly, after s glance at her, and Putney went on as if it were not a per- sonal matter. " Brother Peck pleaded another engage- ment. Said he had to go off into the coun- try to see a sick woman that wasn't expect- ed. to live. You don't remember the Merry - fields, do yeti, Annie ? Well, it doesn't matter. One of 'ern married West, and her husband left her, and she came home here and got a divorce ; I got it for her. She's the one. As a consumptive, she had super- ior attractions for Brother Peck. It isn't a ease that admits of jeelouty exactly, but it wouldn't matter to Brother Peck anyway. If hesaw a chance to do a good action, he'd wade through blood." Now look here, Ralph," said Mrs. Pot- ney,"there's such s thing as letting yourself too loose." Well, gore, then," mid Putney, butter- ing himself a.. biscuit. The boy, who had kept quiet till now, seemed reached by this last touch, and broke into a high, crowing laugh, in which they all joined except his father. • " Gore suits Winthy, anyway," he said, beginniug to eat his biscuit. , I met one of the deacons from Brother Peck's last parish, in Boston, yesterday He asked me culiar in Hotboro', and when I said we thought he was a little too luxurious, the deacon came out with a lot of things. The 'way Brother Peck behaved toward the needy in thatelast parish of his made it simply uniiihabitable to the standard Chris- tian. They had to get rid of him somehow —send him away or kill him. Of course the deacon said they didn't. want to kill him." Where was his last parish ?" asked the " Down on the Maine coast somewhere. " And was he indigenous there ?" " No, I believe not ; he's from Massa- chusetts. Farm -boy and then mill -hand, I understand. Self -helped to an education ; divinity student with summer intervals of waiting at table in the -mountain hotels, probably. Drifted down Maine way on his fivit call and struck ; but I guess he won't stick here very long. Annie's friend, Mi. Gerrish, is going to look after Brother Peek before a great while." Ile laughed to see her blush, and. went on. You see,Brother Gerrish ha,s got a high ideal of what a, Christian minister ought to be ; he hasn't said much about it, but I can see that Brother Peck doesn't come up to it. Well, Brother Gerrish has got a good many ideals.' He likes to get anybody he can by the throat, and squeeze the difference of opinion out of 'ern." " There now, Ralph," his wife inteipos- like people to differ with you, either. Is your eup out, doctor ?" Thank you," said the doctor banding it up to her. " And you mean Dir. Gerrish doesn't like Mr. Peck's doctrine ?" he °eked " Oh, I don't know that he objects to his doctrine ; he can't very well ; it's ' be- tween the leds of the Bible,' ae the Hard- shell, Baptist said. But he, objects to Brother Nck's walk and conversation. He thinks be walks too much with the poor, and converses too much with the lowly. He says he thinks that the pew -owners in Mr. Peck's church and the people who pay his salary have acme rights to his company that he's bound to respect." The doctor relished the irony, but he aeked, " Isn't there something to say on that side ?" " Oh yes, a good deal. There's always something to say on both sides, even when one's a wrong side. That's what makes it all so tiresome—makes ' you wish you were dead." He looked up, and caught his boy's eye fixed with melancholy intensity upon him. " I hope you'll never look -at both sides when you grow up,- Win. - Its mighty uncomfortable. You take the right side and stick to that. Brother Gerrish," he resumed, to the doctor, " goes round taking the credit of Brother Peck's call here ; but the fact is he opposed it. He didn't like his being so indifferent about the salary. Brother Gerrish held that the laborer was worthy of his hire, and if he didn't inquire what his wages were going to be, it was a pretty good sign that he wasn't going to earn them." " Well, there was some logic in that," said the doctor, smiling es before. Plenty. And now it worries Brother Gerrish to see Brother Peck going round in the same old suit of clothes he mite here in, and dressing his child like a shabby little Irish girl. He says that he who pro-' videth not for those of his own household is worse than' a:heathen. That's perfectly true: And he would like to know what Brother Peck does' with his money, anyway. He would like to insinuate that he loses it at poker, I guess ; at any rate, he can't find out whom he gives it to, and he cer- tainly doesn't spend it on himself." " From your account of Mr. Peck," said the doctor, I should think Brother Ger- rish might safely object to him as a certain kind of sentimentalist." " Well, yes, he might, looking at him from the outside. But when you come to talk with Brother Peck, you find yourself sort of frozen out with o most unexpected, hard-headed cold-bloodedness, Brother Peck ie plain common-sense itself. He seems to be a man without an illusion,with- out an emotion." Oh, not so bad tts that !" laughed the " Ask Mise Kilburn. She's talked with him and she hates him." "'No, I don't Ralph," Annie began. " Oh, well, then, perhaps he only made you hate yourself," said Putney. There was something charming in his mockery, like the teasing of a brother with a sister and Annie did not find the atonement te; 'which he brought her altogether painful. It seemed to her really that she was getting off pretty easily, and ' she laughed with hearty consent at last. Winthrop asked, solemnly, " How did he " Oh, I can't tell exec*, Winthrop," she aaid, touched by the boy's simple interest in this abstruse point. He made me feel that I had been rather mean and cruel when I thought I had only, been practical. I can't explain ; but it waen't a comfortable feeling, my dear." "I guess that's the trouble with Brother Peck,"said Putney, "He doesn't make you feel comfortable. He &an% flatter you up worth a cent. There was Annie expecting him to take the most fervent interest in her theatricals, and her Social Uhion, and coo round, and tell her what a noble woman she was, and beg her to consider her health, and not overwork herself *in doing good ; but instead of that he sirattly showed her that she was a moral Cave -Dweller, and that she was living in a Stone Age of social brutalities ; and of course she hated him." " Yes that was the way, Winthrop," said Annie ; and they all laughed_with her. " Now you take them into the perlor, Ralph," said his wife, rising, " and tell them how he made you hate him." I shouldn't like anything better," re- plied Putney.

Hie wife remained to speak with her little helper, but she sent Annie with the gen- " Why, there isn't a great deal of it— more spirit than letter so to speak," said Putney, when he put iiONVU the lamp in the parlor. " You know how I like to go on about alai people's eine, and the world's wickedness generally ; but one day Brother Peck, in that cool, impersonal way of his, suggested that it was not a wholly meritor. ious thing to hate evil. He went so far, as to say that perhaps we could not love them that despiteftilly used us if we hated their evil so furiously. He said it was a. good deal more -desirable more desirable to under- stand evil than to hate it, for then we could begin to cure it. Yes, Brother Peck let in a good deal of light on me'. He rather in- sinuated that I must be possessed by the very evils I hated, and that was the reason I was so violent about them. I had always supposed that I hated other people's cruelty because I was mercifiul, and their meanness because I vim magnsnimous, and their in- tolerance because I was generous, and their conceit because was modest, and their selfishness because I was disinterested; but after listening to Brother Peck awhile I came to the conclusion that I hated theee things in others because I was cruel inyeelf, and mean, and bigeted, and conceited, and piggish ; and that's why I've hated Brother Peck ever since—just like you, Annie: But he didn't reform me, I'm thankful to say, any more than he did you. I've gone on just the same, and I suppose I hate more infernal scoundrels and loathe more infernal *lots to -day Shan ever ; but I perceive that Fin no part of the pewer that makes for right- eousness as long as I work that racket ; and now, sin with light and knowledge, any- way. No, Annie," he went on, " I can't understand why Brother Peck is not the success with women, and feminine tempera- ments like me, that his virtues entitle him to be. What we feminine temperaments want is a prophet, and Brother Peck doesn't prophesy worth a cent. He duesn't pretend to be authorized in any sorb of way ; he has a sneaking style of being no better than you are, and of being rather stumped by grime of the truths he finds out.

" I've no doubt Dr. Morrell is all you say, Ellen, but I meant Ralph when I &poke of brilliancy. He has a great future, rm !sure." Mrs. Putney was silent for a moment. " I'm !satisfied with the present, so long as Ralph—", The team suddenly gushed out of her eyes, and tan. down over the fine wrinkles of heipliimp cheeks. " Noe quite so much loud talking,please,", 'piped a thin, high voice from a room across the stairs landing. " Why, dear little soul 1" .cried Annie. " I forgot he'd gone to bed." " Would you like to see him ?" asked his mother. She led the way into the room where the boy lay in a low bed near a larger one. His crutches lay beside it. " Win sleeps in our room yet. He can take care of himself quite will. But when he wakes in the night he likes to reach out and take his father's hand." The child looked mortified; "I WW1 I could reach out and take my father'S hand when1 wake in the night," said Annie. The cloud left the boy's face. " I can't re- member whether I said my prayere, mother, I've been thinking so." "Well, say them over again to me." The men's voices sounded in the hall be- low, and the ladies found them there. Dr. Morrell had his hat in his hand. "Look here, Annie," said Putney.. "I ex- pected to walk home with yeo, lent Doc Morrell says he's going to oat -me out; It looks like a put-up job. I "don't know whether you're in it or not, but there's no doubt about Morrell." Mrs. Putney gave a sort of gasp, and then they all shouted with laughter, and Annie and the doctor went out into -the night. In the imperfect light which the electries of the main street flueg afar into the little avenues where Putney lived, and the moon sent through the sidewalk treee, they struck against each other as they walked, and the doctor said, " Hadn'e you better take my arm, Miss Kilburn, till we get used to the derk ?" " Yes, I think I had, decidedly," she answered ; and she hurried to add : " Dr. Morrell, there is something I want to ask you, You're„their physician, aren't you ?"

" It's all terrible 1" " But it isn't by any means hopeless." " I'm so glad to hear you say so. You see a great deal of them, I believe ?"
