something- again. Whatever has got
into. bine this tune ?" ••
,Tho old woman peered anxiously.down
on her niece's bright young .face.', She
had just come from the kitohen on to the
back porch.
Stella, laughed. "Oh, he wanted me
•, to go to Elea his garden, and I radii to
wait a little till I had looked over these
berries for supper."
"II -m," said the old woman, looking
down the garden path. "Thought 'twee
nornethiug. Most cantankerous man I
ever see. Better go down, hadn't ye,
Steil. and let me tend nettle berries?"
Stella burst into a merry laugh. "Oh,
you two are so funny I" she cried.
She caught up her hat, and not etop-
ping to wash the berry stains from her
hands, joined her uncle at the garden
gate. "Here I am, Uncle Sam," sue
said. They went together iuto the little
garden, which was separated from the
rest of the farm by a picket fence. A
little later Aunt Sue, having finished her
berries., Peeped out at them. The old
man, with a beaming face, was.pointing
out to Stella some part part of Ins crops.
Stella seemed to be intensely interested.
"He's happy now," muttered Aunt Sue.
She went into the pantry to put away
her berries. Then she brou,ght out her
knitting on to the porch and sat down.
Suddenly she looked up to the long front
piazza or a little farm house nearly op•
posite the street, on whiuh was sitting an
elderly woman, else knitting. Aunt Sue
stopped her work with an undecided ex-
pression, then she exclahned :
"Guess I'll run over and see Mis'
Perry a minute. • It's a full half hour
too soon to get supper yet. An' I want
to know how she made out about that
mew carpet she and Eph was goin' to get
to Stamford to -day." •
She went across the dusty street, tak-
ing her knitting with her. "Dredful
close day, • ain't it?" she said to her
neighbor. "Looks 's if we was gone to
hev a shower, with thatbig cloud cousin'
up in the nor'east. Did you and Eph go
to Stamford to -day, as you said?"
"0 yes," seid Mrs. Perry, brightly.
'Do coree right up and sit down. Yes,
an' we get the carpet. It's a beauty, I
tell ye. Brussels, with big red flowers.
Those big figures are a little out o' style,
the clerk said, an' so we got it real cheap.
But L don't care so inuche'about style, so
long as we get something bright and
pritty. But we didn't bring it home.
We stepped and showed it to Jim's folks,
and 'Aliniry said we couldn't have it
agin till she sewed it for us. I told Jim
I guessed his mother hadn't got so old
she couldn't sew carpets, but Jim said we
hey it back till Almiry'd sewed it. An'
BO there 'tis,"
"Well," said Aunt Sue, "It comes real
nice to hey children to do things for you
when you're gettin' old. Sam an' ',I
never had any children o' our own, 'cept
the baby thet died. And that's why God
give us Steil, I reckon."
"Say," said Mrs. Perry, suddenly.
"Tim Barker was over here this mornin'
and said Steil had got North street school
for the next year. I thought there must
be some mistake, 'cause I know Ada
Reese wanted it, and her father bein'
minister—"
" Well, she jest didn't get it," exult-
ingly exclahned Aunt Sue. "Deacon
Gridley, he gave it to Steil. Ada Reese
never graduated to the high school, an'
Steil did; an' Deacon Gridley ain't the
man to be onduly infloonced. He said,
by true, honest merit the place belonged
to Stell. ,But Ada feels kind o' hurt, I
guess. She treats Steil kind o' cool."
There was a short silence, and the two
old women ,worleed on. The big black
cloud in the northeast was spreading,
but it was back of the house and they
did not see if. They saw only before
them the bright sun slowly setting
• in a cloudless blue sky, and felt the
cool air rising refreshingly. "Somehow
I didn't never think Steil cared about
bein' a teacher," said ,Mrs. Perry.
Another silence; then, "She don't," said
Aunt Sue, reluctantly. "But it takes
sights 'o'money to learn to be an artist.
Professor Denby, he says she ought to
go to the Boston Normal Art School.
An' Stell's wild to go. She's plannin' to
in two or three years; when'she can save
the rnoney. She says it's all she's livin'
for. Am' Sam an' I scrimp all we kin to
save so's she kin go. But money's so
scurce, and she'll hey to wait so long 1"
"Well, don't fret," said Mrs.' Ferry.
"I similld think her Aunt Dorindy'd do
somethin' for her. She's rich enoug,h,
and her 'oven daughter Helen's jest died

and on the driver's seat at bis hostler.
• She shrank from going la, and remained
outside, examining .sonae her pet
plants that bordered, the walk: Sudden-
ly Aunt Sue anpeared at the door. and
witha cheerful voice bade her COille in.
Steil shirty entered the little inning -
room. fier eyes fell at once on a strange
woman, very beautiful, and stylishly
dressed all in black, who was regarding
her With an expression of great kindness
and satisfaction. `She turned inquiring-,
ly to Uncle Sam's Deeming countenance.
"This lady, Steil," said he, vvith quite
a proud, triumphant air, "is your Aunt
(that is, your Cousin) Dorindy, that ye've
heard your aunt an' me speak ou as
wantin' of you when you was little.
Well, here she is, and she wants ye agin.
Her husband and little gal's dead, an'
she's all alone. An' she wants you to go
with her and be her daughter. She's
very rich, and if ye'll consent, she'll take
you to Europe, to study of the greatest
'nesters. An' yell be her airess. An' -
an' -an.' she wants to pay uaa handsome
sum, your aunt an' me, that'll give us
everything we want in our old age."
Stella gasped. Then the beautiful lady
drew her to a seat beside her, • "Stella,
my dear girl," she said in her sweet, dis-
tinct voice, "you. will come with me,
will you not, and be my dear daugh-
ter?"
" Oh I" Stella cried, breathlessly.
" Uncle Sam? Aunt Sue?" ,
"Now, Steil," said the old man, with
a touch of impatience. "don't be silly.
A rare bit of good luck's come to ye,
and your aunt an' me's jest as pleased as
you be."
" Of course, child!" exclaimed Aunt
Sue, in the sante manner.
"You will come then, Stella?" eagerly
exclaimed the lady. •
" Yes " said the girl slowly, as if half
afraid of. her own voice.
"Will you be ready in three days,
Stella? You do not need to care about
your clothes, as we should get new
things anyway. See, I have brought
you a little gift, the prettiest diamond
pin I could tind, just to remember me
and your promise till next Thursday."
At last she was gone, and the two old
people and the young girl were/together
cried Stella, "how good you
two are to be so glad and not say a single
word against it! I couldn't go unless
you were glad. But it's all so easy and
delightful. And how nice it is that
Cousin Dorinda is going to give you all
that money! And I, too -oh, I %vouldn't
go away and leave you if I couldn't send
you lots of money. That would be sel-
fish!"
It was night again, and Stella., after
one of the happiest, merriest eveuings
she had. ever spent with her uncle and
aunt, bade them good -night, and ran up
stairs, softly singing a favorite tune.
After taking off her hot shoes, she sat in
the cool air of her window for a long
time, lost in a delicious revery. When
the clock struck eleven she started up.
"I am too excited to sleep," she thought.
"I'll go down and get the book I brought
from the library to -day, and read myself
sleepy."
She went softly down the stairs. Soon
she heard voices, which surprised her,
but she kept cautiously on her way.
The stairway door,opened directly out
of the large living room, as is the case in
many old-fashioned houses. The door
was slightly ajar, leaving quite a large
opening between the hinges. Through
this opening Stella peeped, curious to
know what her aunt and. uncle could be
doing up at this late hour.
, "Yes, Sue," at last said her uncle, "we
,must make her think we are pleased to
the very last. It'll make her feel better
when she's gone and is happy."
"It don't seem's if 1 could keep on pre-
tending that till next Thursday," said
the old woman. ,
"But you must, Susan 1" severely ex-
clairnedber husband. "If you feel like
givin' way, jest look over to me aud see
how I'm actin' 1"
"Well, retorted Aunt Sue, "and didn't
you most say something you'd be'n
sorry for when Steil said something
about sending money-botne?"
"Money 1" he exclaimed contemptu-
ously. "Do ye s'pose I'd take one cent
from the women that took away Steil?
I'd a thousand times Hofer go to the
poorhouse! But We won't say so -not
yet -till she's gone and is happy.
Money Why, 'twould be like sellin'
our love for cash, same's potatoes or
onions. Ha, ha, ha! Ain't that a
ridikerlous joke!' He looked at his
wife. Her poor little wrinkled face was
hidden under her brawny, hard -worked
hands. The old man furtively put his
hand in his pants pocket and drew out a
small block' of wood. Then with a
sudden crash the large tin teapot on the
back of the kitchen stove bounded off on
to the clean, sanded floor, ejecting a
great quantity of tea grounds and
water.
"Samyel Perkins 1" cried the old lady,
starting up like a flash. "You promised
me you wouldn't do that caper agin till
Sten went.' &pose she sli'd see ye do
that now; She'd' catch on in a jiffy."
Bat the old man's force Wail spent.
He sat weak and trembling in his chair.

Aunt Sue's eyes flashed, her lips
settled in a straighter line, but she said
nothing. ,
"She's the one, ain't she, *let wanted
to 'dopt Steil years ago?" pursued Mrs.
Perry, as though Ole had not already
known the facts. "Jest what relation is
she to you, ennyhow?"
"None to me, eaid Aunt Sue, shortly.
"You know Stell's mother an' Sani's
furst wife' (she died when she an' Sane
hadn't 'been married more're a month),
they was sisters, an' Dorindy . was first
cousin to them,Dorindy married a rich
banker, and kind o' separated herself
from the rest o' the family. Stell's
mother married a poor farmer, who died,
'fore 'Steil was born, Then when Stoll.
was'a baby her mother died. Dorindy
might 'a had the baby then, but she said
she didn't want to be bothered with it.
Se me an' Sam took it.' Then when we'd
had her four or five years, and she web
beginnin' t� be pritty and smart, then
Dorincly wanted her; an' when eve
wouldn't give her up, she got 'Squire
Chase to try to frighten us into dente hf

seemed to satisfy her."

heard of the boys, Lee, the elder, was
drinking like the devil.
-Where the.fellow ever got his appe-
tite for liquor the Lord only knows, but
lie had 11, and it was appalling, and there
didn't seein to be :my way of epe Inge it

was just the Opposite. a quiet, stn. tious
aort of a chap, who kept to himself,
mostly. Somehow. he Miv,w seemed to
get on with people the way Lee did -he
didn't have that bright sot:t of tact that
makes young men agreeable and taking.
He didn't care any more fo;.• society than
society cared for hint ; the two weren't
suited to each .ther; all he wantel was
to he bit alone. The boy was all right
at bottom, as he's shown since; hut the
person to draw him out hadn't come
alone yet.
"Well, four years ago this fell, there
came to the house ono day a hundred and
twenty pounds of as pretty, blue-eyed
Meekness as you ever saw. It was the
daughter of a sort of second cousin of
brother Ed's and mite). Her parents
were dead, and Ed was her guardian, see
she came here to live. . She was one of
this little, canary-uird stet of girls.
"At the time she arrived, Lee was
just a little this side of delirium tremens,
and I really believe she staved '010 off.
Julie was her name. She hadn't been in
the house two weeks -before everybody
was in love with her, including both of
the boys. It Was the most astonishing
thine..in the world, the way she drew
that fellow George Aut. From being
moody and self-contained, he just. ex-
panded into as jovial and agreeable a
young man as you'd wish to meet. Julie

the alert. I can tell you, old boy. to see
them together, with so much confidence
and good -will between 'em, and so much
of something else that seemed too big to
express-wele sometunes it made me
feel that possibly I'd missed something
in life by knocking around single.
"But, however -well, Lee didn't get
along so well with Julie. When he was
sober, and devoted himself to her, he
seemed to sort of awe her, don't you
know -she wasn't free and happy its she
was with George. but always restrained,
end half ante( of him. But they were
both dead in love with her, and each was
determined to have her.
"Now, you would have thought sthat
Ed and his wife would have put their
influence on George's side, wouldn't
yo;? Not a bit of it. They wanted her
to merry Leet and why? Because they
told her AO was the one pereon who
could reform . hitn-save him front a
drunkard's grave. you know -and ell
that rot. Well, I'm damned if they
hornswoggle the girl into saying
ehe would marry hini. He had grace
enough to take it with a goed deal of
shante-faceduess, and she -well, she
looked as if she hadn't a friend left on
earth. But they had dinned her ao
mucli about her duty, and what a man
-site could make of Lee, that she didn't
have nerve enough to come out/ flat-
footed and say .no.
"One evening. George came to me

Oleos, Filters.
With the advent of warm Weather the
necessity for a supply of pure, well -
filtered water bercomes imperative, and a
scientific journal has ad visedly described
two methods whereby an effective filter
can be easily and cheaply provided,
Procure a wine barrel ate] a piece of fine
brass wire cloth large .enough to make a
Partition across the barrel. Simport the
wire cloth with a coarser wire cloth
under it, and also a light frame of oak
to keep the cloth frm sagging.
Fill in with about three inches in
depth of clear, sharp sand, theu two
inches of charcoal, broken finely, hut no
dust. On top of this 'put four incites
more of sand, fill up the barrel with
water and draw from the bottom. In
another method two bailees or two stone
pots or jars may be used. The top jar
must have a hole drilled or broken in
the bottom and a small flour -pot .saucer
inverted over the hole. Then fill in with
a layer of sharp, clean sand, rather
coarse, a layer of finer sand, a layer of
pulverized charcoal, with the dust blown
out, then another layer of sand, which
will come up to about one-third of the
jar. The jar which is to hold the supply
of filtered water can have a side hale
drilled for a faucet, so as to obviate the
necessity of retnoving the top jar when
water is wanted. The filtering jar ie
placed on top and filled with water, and
thus a supply Of the filtered liquid is
always obtainable in the bottotn re-

Went Megularly to Meet Fier Dead
Lover.
Dr. Nevins tells a very touching Etory
in lifs " Disorders of the Brain." A
patient of his, a young lady engaged to
be nuirfied, was often visited by her in-
tended husband by the stage coach,
which passed within a mile or two of tter
house. One day tme went to meet him
and found instead an old friend, who
brought the news of his sudden death.
She uttered a frightful scream. 1* He is
dead 1" and then all consciousness of her
misfortune ceased. "Diu, by day for
fifty years did. this poor creature, in all
seasons, journey to the spot where he
expected to see her lover alight from, the
coach, and day by day she uttered in a
planitive tone: 'Ile is not come yet. I
will return to -morrow,'" Could anything
be sadder than this romance from a doo-
tor's notebook?
