graceful sister Winnie, with the
lovely golden hair all in a mass a little
glittering curie over her forehead, be-
neath her black crepe bonnet—turned to
them also With OM arms, kissing them
and crying over them in hem,
One of the eoastguard aappened to
pass at the moment, and with grave
alarm he told his officer, five minutes
afterwarde, that there was a strange
lady all in black gone into his—the of-
ficer's—house, and "he hoped as she had
brought no bad news to the missus, for
he thought as he had heard. the children
all a -crying,"
Poor Lieutenant Caerlyon ran in pant-
ing, uncovering his gray head respectful-
ly as he entered. the strange lady's pres-
ence, and remembered nothing more,
when she turned round, then a confused
scene and much talking and laughing
and crying, and questioning and Rumor-
ing, for the next hour, until poor Sarah
Matilda eager to redeem her character,
before the eyes of the perfect sister, got
tea reedy, and some small loaves uicely
baked, and eggs boiled, and a bit of
ham fried, and the lump sugar and
sweet -cake put on the table—all which
constituted the fatted calf that the poor
Oaerlyons had to offer to the returned
wanderea—and they were all seated at
the teeetable, Winnie next her father,
and the tears and excitement blinding
and confusing her so that she did not
know where she was eating or not.
Poor Lieutenant Oaerlyon had been
crying plentifully himself, but now he
rubbed his eyes determinedly dry, and.
gazed at his long-abeent da.ughter
proudly.
"Elizabeth, hasn't she grown a—a nice
little woman?" he asked, longing to say
more ,but withheld as he had ever been
frone giving his child her meed of
praise.
"She has grown downright elegant and
pretty," said Mrs. Caerlyon, with one
of her short laughs; "I'd never have
known her, I think, only she came into
the kitchen. She's nicer -looking to my
mind than Lady Mountrevor—grand as
she is," .
Winnie blushed deeply—one of her old
vivid, rose -red blushaa
"Oh, mamma!"
"Elizabeth, my dear," said Lieutenaut
Caerlyon, laughing, "that's too fart Lady
Mountrevor, Elizabeth!" But in his se-
cret heart he lead never felt No great a
glow of gratitude to his wife act he felt
at that instant.
'cis Lady Mountrevor here now'?" Win-
nie Asked, looking up with a quick, keen
interest darkening 'her brilliant grey
eyes.
"Yes, she is," answered Mea. Caerlyon,
slightingly, and she further proeeeded
to state, in the decisive, off -hand way
that people assume when they wish to
convince others of their demooratic ire
difference to wealth and rank, and
beauty and fashicn, that for her part
she saw nothing particular in this grand
Lady Mountrevor that people made such
a "to-do" about, as if she were a queen
—a tall, stout, showy woman, dreseed
like a doll in a window, with her white
muslin dressee and lilac ribbons, walking
along the dusty roads in eunimer, with
a French nurse for her child—her "bone"
she believed they called her. '`And why
she isn't at home with her husband, in.
stead. of wandering about the country,
110 One can make out," concluded Mrs.
Oaerlyon, with a sapient nod. "Net
neueh love lost between them, Bute
enough."
"Ah, I bope.such is met the ease," sold
Winnie earnestly; and, in order to
change the subject—she knew to what
lengths "making out" ewe was carried
by the maids and matrons of Tolgooth
and its Vicinity in the old daye,—she
asked, "Do you ever see Madam Vivian,
mamma?" .
"Yes, at church, sometimes," replied
Mrs. Caerlyot, with a fresh aecestrion of
the slighting tone; "and she's getting
a real old woman, too, for all her grand
bonnets and ribbana, and furs and
things, 1 saw her last Sunday, and she
asked when we had heard last from you.
She's as proud and stiff as ever, poor
old lady—shut up there in Roseworthy
for half the year, without a aoul to talk
to but that that tawny -faced old. maid,
Trewhellet."
"Oh, Trewhella's not married yet,
then?" remarked Winnie, laughing.

returned the step -another, "for all her

The grim, eccentric_ old woman's gen.

her life, the grateful love and trust of
it freala fond young heart; and et,relys
in al Ther years of shrewd aattteness,

well as when she thue purchased that
fond filial ()are for the evening of her
life, and the loving remembrance of her

neath the fresh mourning dress of Win-
nie Caerlyon.
"I did all 1 could, OT °Ours°, as Vre,4

rather tremblingly, for fear ehe might
seem proud or arrogent—poor frail pale -
faced little woman!—`but 1 shall be

genuine pleasure and satisfaction. "Aunt

sobbed Winnie, quite breaking down.
"liannale her servant, had the bouse

year foe her lifee and I've—I've a thou
—thousand dollars a yeael That's about
two hundred pounds, you know, dear,"
she said, appealing to Sarah Matilda,
who had grown pale with surprise and
delight.
Tietas of bets with white feathers
and kid. gloves, and long gossamer veils,
like Lady Mountrever'ee began to be
conjured up in Sarah Matilda's girlieh,
vain young head, whilst her sieter
spoke.
"My goodness gracious!" ejaculated
'Mrs. Caerlyon, her face quite in a blaze

"1 am glad to hear it, my dear," he

"NO, father, 1 sha'n't," opposed Win-
nie, (trying and laughing together. And
one of the "little brothers" anxiously
inquired of Johnnie if "sister Winnie"
had a lot of little children away over
in North America. "When you don't
want me any longer, I eat take ray
nionty and myself away, but, until
then—why, father, dear, I'll spend the

ly. "How could 1? Unless I were to

As for the new carpet and cbaire,
Winnie had arranged for thein, es well
as a new clrawitg-room, or rather new

'house .of their own, where the Caerlyons
would not be "cobbled, cribbed, con-
fined," a family of eleven persons in a
six -roomed house—the one perched above
Tolgooth Bay, provided by Government
for their ateommodation.
Every room was strewn with new,
curious, pretty and eatable thingsa-pic-
turee, books, old china, dresses, jars of
jelly, betties of syrup, toys, peeking
cases; and everybody was extenieing
everything, praising, wondering, diecuss-
lug, questioning to their heart's content;
while Winnie—her neat black dress oov-
ered up with a large white apron and
bib, welt as site used ti) wear long ago
—was running about, arranging, unpack-
ing, tidying, cooking, talking arid laugh -
Eng, all the seven ohildren following her
from room to room, up and down steirs;

breathless interest.

distanee, was attentively etudying Win -
tile's small delicate face, flushed so
brightly, her smiling eyes and lips,
and her beautitul carefully -arranged
hair.
"Instead of going on for eight -and -
twenty, mamma," supplemented Win-
nie; and for a moment the brightness
faded from her face,
"Well, what if yousare?" Mr. Caerl-
yon began, when Sarah 'Matilda, de-
lightedly investigating- every corner and
parcel in the large travelling trunk,
held up a. large square cedar box. -
"What's in this, sister?"
"That? 0, nothing! At least"--Win-
box, but Sarah Matilda noticed how
very red "sister Winnie" had grown—
n10 stooped down as if to examine the
"it's nothing but a—a jacket."
"A jacket! Oh, do let's see!" Sarah
Matilda said, pulling eagerly at the
twine. "Yours, sieter? Where did you
buy it? What kind is it?"
"It's only a very al& one, dear," ans-
wered Winnie; and Sarah Matilda no-
ticed how the red fluele had totally dis-
appeared. "Some other time we'll look
at it—it's not worth opening now; I've'
had it for years."
"What did 'e do with the splendid
sealskin jtteket, Winnie," asked her
sternother—"the one Captain Treden-
nick gave 'e before 'e went away?"
Winnie hesitated a moment, and the
eolor dyed all her face in it burning
blush that she strove to hide.
"Why—that is it!" she said, with a
short, nervous laugh, pointing to the
cedar box. "It is tis good as ever, and
it has kept rne warm for seven long
-winters. It was a beautiful one, certain -
y.))

SPELLING WITHOUT DRUDGERY,
Miss Haynes, a Boston school teach-
er, should have e monument raised to
her memoay by the boys and girls of
the world, She has devised a way of
"teaching spelling without drudgery."
Her pupils range from five to six
years and elle has made each one of
them to represent a letter of the al-
phabet, and the class spends its time
in playing a game called "putting the
letters together." The consonants are
all cousins, and the vowels are all
long brothers or short brothers, rep-
resenting the different pronunciations
of the letters, The child who repre-
sents double -o wears a green coat be-
cause of the pigeons that coo in tee
green trees. There is a hint from
which the whole game may be con-
structed.
