Cr a pan of dried beans.wai in doilit alio; for she never prwumed to make up her mind until Miss Martiut had, told 'her how. The family qualiiieS, as' welt as 'the silittir ansl linen, were divided between these, two sisters"; the energy, decision and sharpness going to tile elder, and the easy, good-nature self-denial and hard work, _falling to the younger. • So, naturally, to the World at large, the crooked, dumpy figure, and reaily smile, of Miss Ann; was more Comely than the stately form and strong-minded address of MiSs Mar tha. • The sisters were not; alone In the great yel. low-waihed kitthen, with its, fieshly scoured floor aud queer cupbords stuck in the corners like hornets' nests. There was besides, a young woman with a round- fair fact whiehlooked as pleasant as Miss Ann's. and and .as firm as Miss Martha's. 'I have made up my mind, rind if you don't think best to help me, I must do without your help,' said the third womati,shutting her lips, and poising her haul with an air which show tat argoment or remonstrance would tall upon her like ram tipnn a rock. , Miss Martha gave her gown another , hitch. 'Do youlhink you could manage It ..not to get 'bond dot ± I haven't much question in uiy own mind UM wbat I could go front Dan to Bersheba in men's-clothes, without a soul's mistrusting me but it isn't every woman who could act a part as well as myself,' said she. I 'What I ant afraid of is that you won't stand it to do a man's work, its .vim if • you manage it to pass oittseli,et ortille,' interposed the tender-hearted Mil Ann: — ' "1 am naturally : strong and healthy, and since Harmon went to the army 1 Intro done Lis work as well as mine.

She had a cheerful heart as well as it brave one, and she said nothing of the weariness and hardships she hadatruggied thfmgh, be fore coming to this , detpemte decisio.t. "Have you told your folks anything about your plan r" queried Miss Martha, With another hitch. "31y folks ! Of course not. Nobody but you. Motherand the girls do not even know Harmon biti been taken prisoner, or that be is sick, and I would not hove, them, especial ly mother. She worried herself letifto death whenle'enlisted; andshe has enough to bear up under 'without taking me on her should ers." . • "she always was a nervous piece. I re member her before you were born; but I tell you what, Laura, you are having a hard row to itae, and I tun willing to, do what I Cali to help you it you are sure you can man age it so its not to get found out. I (Tool take mud, to children, myself, but *yours seem to be well brought out, and pretty-behaved, mall will consent to your leaving; them here for it spot any way; but the course you have got marked out fin. _yodeself seems like some thin?, nia venture,: said Miss Martha at last. "lint wont need to worry a 'single speck abet the children. We will do the very best we can for them, and if you find you are over-taxing your strength you must leave right straight MT, and try something else," added Miss Inn, rattling a handful of beans into the pan. Alas! In their doubting and fearing, .no thought of the will of the Lord, whose bless ing niiiketb rich, and He uddeth no sorrow with it, came into the mind of either of the women. Else they might have remembered how lie: said—"lle that walketh uprightly walketh surely; but he that perverteth his ways shall be known." So they went on setting up human cunning and strength tightest the decrees of the Infinite. • Yet - evil was never done that good might come, with a purer heart, and more unsel fish motive, than when Laura Seaver cool went forth.. clothed in falsehood, to work for those who were dearer to her than life..• In the ~ ,• ray twilight of the 'ilay,Whert Miss Mn Tods—who could turn her hind to the making' of any:ling trent a shoe to ti bonnet —had finished a suit, of boy's clothes, • Mrs- Net, the nearest neighbor toward the north, , saw from her pantry window, by which she stood; mixing biscuit in a wooded bowl, a boy . drawing a wheelbarrow into her 'l.cloor-yard• She knew the old, blue wheelbarroiv well I enough, 'for it was Mr. Pim's; and hers, too, ' for that matter, which had been lent to Miss Ann Tods to take home her bag of meal that came with Mr. Pim's grist ,from mill; but she didn't know the boy. And this was a town so small, sod so .out of the way.among tilt:111118, with sit little happening In that 'a st range cat, or a dead 'sheep, was a nine week's `talk, ,„ "Relit' stranger ton Inn. Nobody belong ing hereaways, and I can't think for the life of uw, what relation or acquaintance he can be of the Tods," said she, raising the Window ' and putting her head out for a better sight. She held out her hand also, adding ; quite loudly- 6 N% it don't rain." Mrs. Pim was full of such small double-dealing, which nev er- deceived anybody but herself. —•- `What for-a-looking fellow nther' asked Mrs Plum's mother-in-law, .who was afflicted illephibnsbeth, and could not easily get to the window to reconnoitre Tor herself.

'Why wouldn't he enlist and 'be off our hands and on our queto?' suggested the part ner. This was lathe last year of the war, when calls for soldiers came often and loud, and one more on the town's quota was gladly counted in. f Thus, for two reasons, the idea pleased Mr. liurlingaine", - ao he talked with George about it, and fou.ni him apparently very willing to enlist; but there was a diffi culty. No volunteers were received under eighteen. • They would be fools not to take me,' said George; Lut they won't.'
