"i never encouraged nobody while
.poor Missus was alive," Sarah replied;
"but to.be sure, a lorn woman is lone-
some when getting in years. It's like
this, Miss Plummer, I've had my own
way this vive and forty year, and that
is pretty nigh so much as anybody hey
a right to."
"To be sure, Sarah," assented Mrs
Plarnmer, "you've had more libdrty
than a woman ought to, and it is time
you began to think of doing for some
inan going to rack and rum for want
of a wife; you don't know any steady
widower -man who inight be looking

"I knows two or dree looking after

replied; thoughtfully; ain't, u gwine

"Abraham Bush has money of his
own," suggested Mrs Plummer, cau-
tiously.
"Very like; he's a near one is Abram.
Vine weather for gairdens, Miss Plum-
mer, ain't it?"
Mrs Plummer then put a similar
question to Abraham.
"Ay, I've thought o' matrimony
many a time," Abraham replied. "I
have always a thought better of it."
"You'll be getting in years, Abra-
ham," Mrs Plummer urged, "and you
will find the want of a wife."
"I've a vound it this vifty year," re-
turned Abraham, 'and I've vound the

a view to taking his departure.

.the fo11owizg pregnant words:
' "I reckon I hanft much of a one for
marryen."
"More bain't I, Abraham," returned
Sarah, preomptly.
He was foiled, and began to wonder
how many years would pass by before
he would again be able to open a 'par-
allel of such importance. The clock
ticked on for some minutes, making
asorLof rhythm_with Sarah's Clicking,
needle; Abraham scratched his head
and moved uneasily in his chair, till at
last he came out with, "There aint no
particular harm in materimony as I
knows on, Sarow."
'Tis well enough for some yolk,"
Sarah admitted, guardedly.
"'Tis hwrote m the Bible that two
is better than one," contended Abra-
ham, after another perplexed five
minutes of silence.:
"Sure enough," she replied; "I'd
sooner hae two cows than one if tipsy
was giv' me."
"Lord ha massy!" groaned Abraham,
within himself, shan't get drough
with this in a week o' Sundays. Who'd
a thought the ooman was that dunch,
and had such apower of words inside
her?"
"I've always -a said," he continued,
"when I marries I shall hae a ooman
by the name o' Sarow to go long with
Abram like the Bible."
"Rev ye'now? Well there's a plenty
of SitrOvis to her."
"Sure enough, there's a many Sai-
rows. but they.baint all up to dairy -
work," continued Abrahacti.

"I Med so Well go drongh With 't,

other ooman to marry me, after this

ence for same ranautes, with his hands
thrust into his pockets, his legs stretch-
ai out straight toward the,ffie, and his
eyes contemplating. his boots, which
were powered with, fine meal like 'all

over which his hat was firmly rammed
for the double purpose of concealing
his blushes and giving him a resolute
air.
Sarah, a wholesome, pleasant -faced
woman with ruddy cheeks and strong,
black hair tinged with Fay, stitched
dfligently on with an imperturbable
"Massy me!" she thought to herself,
. "anybody med newst so well be made
love to by a owl. Why caint the wold
dunderhead up and say 'Will ye hae
me, Sarow?' and ha' done wi"t?"
"Sarow," continued Abraham, so-
lemnly, "me and you's kep company
together this vivteen year.
'Anybody most hae somebody to
walk with, returned Sarah, as if to
exculpate herself from the charge.
"You baint much to look at, to be
sure."
"I've a hundred and vivty pohnd in
bank!' he added, doggedly.
• 'Hey ye?"
- "Darn it all, Sarow," cried Abraham
goaded to desperation. "Whatever's
the good o' wiverin about like this per?
Well ye hae me or wunt ye?"
"Now you talk sense, Abram," re-
plied Sarah. judicially. "I durum as I
am one fur marren, though. A man
do make such a litter sta,bbling about

its pure radiance, it threw a glory over
everything, warm and acute touches
of color from tree -trunks, the red brok-
en banks and the still lake through
which a stream loitered slowly, as no
,pencil could reproduce.
Russet and gold leafage was just be-
ginning to break forth here and there
in the gray masses of oak tops over
their heads. Looking back into the
living roof you saw only silvery mazes
of thickly interwoven boughs, relieved
by some burst of fresh leafage or some
green under -growth. The pale net-
work make a hoary gloom about the
strong low arches of those stout gray
pillars; solemn, mysterious, and sug-
gestive. All sorts of dreanis rise and
embody themselves in such dim wood-
land haze; dryads, nymphs, and fauns
spring to life; fairies disport themsel-
ves about the mossy loop. And when
the sunshine loses itself in those close -
woven branches. or shoots through
some aperture in the oaken roof, light-
ing up clusters of pale, sweet primroses,
delicate lightly -swaying wind -flowers,
beds of wood -violets, spires of early
blue -bells piercing the moss and the
red relics of last year's leaves, the effect
is truly magical.
But if the oak coppice behind them
spoke of hoary legend and gray anti-
quity, all that lay before their eyes
breathed of youth and morning in its
fresh tender beauty. The still lake, of
a deeper azure than the lavender -blue
sky, reflected the delicate tints of
youngest green and gave back the pen-
sive gaze of primroses, most youthful
maidenly of flowers, and mirrored the
pale golden glory of blossoming sal -
lows, already thronged with inebriate
bees. Nests were hidden down by the
water where the sedge rustled drily;
little dark moor hens darted out with
their wild, plaintive cry; an emerald
flash lighted on a sallow bough, its
double in the water beneath proclaim-
ing it a kingfisher; pigeons murmured
contentedly, the little stream gurgled
musically in its rocky descent to the
lake, the spring like fragrance of young
leaves filled the air.
Jessie, seeing and feeling all this
fresh, live beauty as she stood by the
easel near her worshipped friend, felt
depths upon depths opening within
her, whether of pain or joy she did not
rightly know; all vvas.vague aod unde-
veloped, like the blinding stirrings of
the spring in the world around; last
year's nestlings cannot tell what won-
ders may happen as the spring days go
by with fresh miracles, so it is with
young unstirred hearts, ignorant of
the advancing pageant of life.
--"liewsbeantifah how very beanti-
ful 1" she murmured dreamily, as she
gazed before her.
'Passable," commented her compan-
ion, "subdued scale of coloring."
"And how pleasant to be with you,
dear Miss Lonsdale," continued Jessie.
"I think I never quite lived before. I
shall never," she added, "be happier
than I am to -day." .
Clara looked at the young, sweet,
rapt face with a mixture of envy and
pity, scorn and tenderness, wonder
and amusement. "Foolish child," she
said, caressingly; "how long is it since
you wished GO forget XOtill' OWD, exis-
tence? iome and sketch in these trees
for me."
She smiled a glad assent and bent
over the easel. She did not know that
Sven now the shadow of advancing
fate was falling upon her, stealing
from the mysterious maze of oak -
boughs in the heart of the wood, and
that she would never again be the
same fresh -hearted girl that flitted
lightly over the daisied sward in that
morning's sunshine. She was only
conscious of the blithe wood -notes
warbling in the spring air, the crack-
ling of boughs and dead leaves beneath
a firm quick step, the sound of a mel-
low human voice, as the smoke of a
cigar overpowered the wood scents,
and turning round, she looked straight
into the face of a young and handsome
man whose eyes were alight with afire
such as she had never seen before and
never could forget.
TO BE CONTINUED.
So Clara immediately found some-
thing better to do. She took Jessie in
to amuse the invalid girl, Ethel Med-
way, one day. Ethel at once took to a
face so sweet and so near her own age,
and Sir Arthur, over -glad to find any
means of brightening his daughter's
sad life, said no more.
Jessie left Miss Blushford's at Easter'
when the Medways were again at Mar-
wellrund-elarcrwas- again-rnterested-br
her new friend, with whom she had
naaintained a brisk correspondence in
the interval, and with whose brief and
uneventful history she was soon fully
acquainted.
The news of the final capture of
Lucknow by Sir Colin Campbell had
been received, and though the great
revolt was now virtually quelled, Phi-
lip still had stener work than marry-
ing cut out for him for months to come
yet. In his letters he now only allud-
ed to their uniOn as a distant possibil-
ity; as to Jessie's letters he seldom al-
luded to them at all. Many never
reached him) those he did receive came
out of their properorder and with such
gaps and want of sequence that they
were difficult to understand. On his
part he had things of such deadly in-
terest to relate during the prolonged
sieges that he confined himself to the
baldest statement of facts, and this he
often repeated, knowing how many
chances there were that his letters
would never reach their destination.
Thus the two young people were spir-
itually as* well as physically separated.
The wearing, wasting pain of vainly
waiting for the post, of fearing the
positnian's knock and yet being blank-
ly disappointed when he brings noth-
ing to fill up the emptiness of the
weary day, such, the frequent portion
of women, who weep while men work,
wait while they are absent, watch
while they enjoy, waS Jessie's portion in
her secluded isolation. She ate her
heart out wink watching for Indian
letters, and when the rare, long expect-
ed missive did attive—and sometimes
the same mail brought two—was al-
ways, after the first thankfulness that
Philip was still alive and well, miser-
ably disappointed and sat down to
write her answer feeling that she might
as well seek counsel and comprehen-
sion of a stone wall. Yet there was
only Philip to speak to, and Miss Lone -
dale, who read the child's inmost heart
as she read the last new novel, because
it was something new and therefore
interesting to a world -worn mind.
In the genial spring weather they
couln sketch in the open air, and made
appointments to meet at selected
points of vantage, so that Clara might
take hints and examples from Jessie's
greater skill and talent, she said, but
really for the companionship.
How happy Jessie was in this, to her,
rare and cultivated companionship!
How charming, clever and accomplislc-
ed, as well as kind and friendly, the
woman of the world appeared to the
simple girl! Her grace seemed beauty,
her polish courtesy, her superficial
cleverness and information genins and
learn ing, her tact heart-sy in pathy.
Indian letters, Redwoods homespun,
Miss Blushford's fettering pettiness,
her own idle aimless life; all were for-
gotten with Clara.
One lovely forenoon they met by a
thick grove of old oaks. descending a
moderate slope to a fair-sized sheet of
water, the banks of which, except that
opposite the sketchers, rose steep,
crowned with trees. From this level
bank the rich sward, dotted by clumps
of fine trees, eolled away up to the ter-
race in front of Marwell Courts the
long and imposing front of which r.ose
