It couldnot be classed. as a prayer exactly, . for when she began her utterance she look- ed. around as if to find, sympathy in the assembled faces, and her deep set, pietc. ing eyes seemed alight with intense feeling. At first she grasped the back Of the settee, in _front with her long, fleshless fingers, and then later clasped and 'finally raised them above her up- turned face, While her body swayed with the vehemence of her feelings. Her garb, too, lept a:pathos, for it was naught but, a faci:eki calico dress that I hung from' her attenuated frame like the raiment of- a. scarecrow. It may have been the shadowy room or the mournful dirge ofi the nearby ocean that added an uncanny toneh to her words and looks, but from the moment she arose until her utterance ceased .Al- bert was spellbouud. So peculiar and yet so pathetic was her prayer it shall be quoted iu full: , "0 Lord,. I come, ito then, knowin' I m as a worm11 t crawls on the airth; like the dust blown by the rinds, the empty' shell on the shore, or the leaves that fall on the ground. I come poor an' humble.

I'm old an' weary o' wait - in'. I'm humble an' bereft kin. I'm sad an' none to comfort me. I eat the crust o' poverty an' drink the cup o' humility.

"Could you endure my company eery day for a month?" he asked, looking her full in the face. "I don't believe you could endure ellM" site replied, dropping her eyes, and then she added quickly: "There is a prayer meeting tonight at the Cape. Would you like to go?" "Most certainly," he answered. Albert had expected to see the Gypsy In the harbor when they -returned that afternoon, but was happily disappoint- ed. "1 hoPe they willstay at'Bar Har- bor a week," he thought That evening When Telly appeared; ready to be escorted to the prayer meeting, he was gertain that no fairer girl was to be found. anywhere. She was dressed in simple white, her ,masses of sunny hair half concealed by • a thin blue affair of, loosely knitted .wool and had a cluster of wild roses at her throat. It was a new and pleas- urable experience to be walking beside a well dressed yoking man whose every look and word bespoke enjoyment of her socie , and she showed it in, her un ffeeted way.

For that reason I should be classed as one of the sinners, I presume." "Well, so is father, but that doesn't make him one.

I always go to raeet1ng Sun- days when there is one— other and I —and once in awhile to tle Thursday evening prayer meeting. I think it's because I enjoy the singing," When they reached the point Albert could not restrain his desire to enjoy the society of this unaff cted, simple and beautiful girl a little onger. The moon that Frank had. piajnned to use was high everhead,and a ay out over the still ocean stretched broadening path of silvery sheen, w ile. tit their feet, where the ground swells were breaking upon the rocks, every splash ' of foam looked like snow,white wool. "If it's not asking too much, 'Miss Terry," said Albert with utmost polite- ness, "won't you *k ,oht to the top of the cliff and, sit down, a few mo- ments while I enjoy qk Cigar?. The night is too beautiful o turn' away from at once' • Telt, assented, and th took posses- sion of the rustic seat where Albert had listened to- her his ory the nigbt before,. What a flood of motions came to him as he watched his fair com- panion, all :unconscious f his scrutiny, and with them a sudden and keen in- • tdrest to unra.yel the mystery of her -parentage and the hope llmat some tinie he might do it. Efe als4 felt an unic- . countable desire to tel her that he knew her patheticstoryand to express his interest in it and his sympathy for her, but dared not. "It may hurt her to know know it," he , thought "and „I will wait till she knotvs me better." Instead, he began tell ng her about himself and his own Jearly life, his home, his loss of parents, his struggle to earn a living and ho much success he had so far met. When his recital and m1gar were both at an end and it was t me to go in he said, "I may not have another chauce to ask you, Miss Terry, before I leave here, but when I get iback to Boston may I write to you, aim.' will you an- swer my letters if I dor The question startled her a little, but she answered: "I shall be pleased to hear from you, Mr. Page, and will di, the best I can in replying, only do not expect too much."

OW did ye like the prayer meet '?" asked Uncle Ter- ryIhe next morning as Al- bert stood watching him get- - ting ready to start on his daily rounds. "Did the Widder Leach make ye feel ye was a hopeless sinner?" "It was an interesting experience," replied Albert, "and ,one I shall not soon forget." "Oh, it don't do 'em no harm to git together an' pray an! sing, an' most likely it diverts their minds from other troubles; but, In my way o' thinkina prayin' is a good deal like a feller try - In' to lift himself by hie boot straps. It encourages him some, but he don't git much further." Then he added, "You haven't thought o' no way to git me out o' my scrape, hey ye?" "I have thong& a good deal about It," replied Albert, "and the best way, it seems to me, is -for you to go to Frye and tell him you, can't afford to carry the case any further and offer to pay whatever fee he sees fit to ask. You can tell him yea will give up the case entirely, and ask' him to return the proofs you want. I may decide to have a detective within hearing, oa that if he refuses you these things we can use the detective as a witness in a re- plevin suit. Most likely he will de- mand quite a sum, but it is best to pay it if we can get the proofs. I will advance money enough to cover what he is likely to ask. What I want you to do is to wait until he sends for more money; thenocome to me at once." Uncle Terry looked at •Albert a mo- ment and suddenly, 'grasping his hand, exclaimed, "I Can't thank ye haough for yer offer to help me, but I kin say how sorry I am I distrusted ye at fust, an' as long as I've a roof to cover nu head ye'ro sure to find a welcome ii - dor It it an' the latchstring allus out." "I thank you for your kindly words, Mr. Terry," responded Albert, "and I am likely to avail myself of your invi- tation again before the summer is over. I expect my friends back today and Must join them, but I assure you I would much prefer to stay here for the two weeks I have planned for my outing." , "Ye won't go till I see ye again, will ye?" asked Uncle Terry anxiously. "No. If the Gypsy shows up today we will stay in the harbor tonight, and I should like to have you and Miss Telly visit her." Then as'the old man pushed off and pulled out of the cove with long, slow strokes, Albert watch- ed him with a new interest. "Poor old fellow!" he thought. "He is honeet as the day is long and has a heart of gold beneath his blunt speech. How hard he has to work for what he gets, and what a vile thing in Frye to rob him so!" When the old man was ont of sight Albert strolled over to the vil- lage. On the outer side of the harbor , and opposite where the houses were he came to some long rows of slat benches, and busy at work spreading split fish upon them was the old lady who had thanked the Lord so fervently at the prayer meeting. For an hour he strolled around the harbor watehing the men at work on boats or fishing gear awl sniffing the salt sea oder of ibc ocean breeze, and then returned to the -point and Vegan tasetelaing the , lighthouse. - - tteogenteeseee eeeeeegaeeeeeaeeeeetente.teoeetedt•eiteefddhnalt*ehhedVedeNteedelitlfitl'ddldt neeeeeeee. dee: te .e.; e 4-4 eat • ;et dlqt1 o.i.-,....a...

That the automobile, is already having a -decided effect on at least the trade in car- riage horses is assured. It is true that the machines are not over numerous in Ostfa- ads, but.for all that there are tome five or eix -hundred in Toronto alone.

The main dependerice, that is of the bigheet type of driving horses, will be for horse show or epeedwey purposes, of couree not taking the race track, which will continue to fieurigh as long as people love aporb and anitnated aped, into consideration.
