of the sentence, and Wing it flush
ing out there as in the days of Bel ,

the widow, who was certainly in no
state, to help him out.
"Alt 1 Olt!" she faltered, while her
comely brunette face showed a fine
combination of solferino and Bis
mark. "Oh! Alt!"
Mr. Means saw the betraying color
with his quick gray eyes. •
"clang 11,1" said be to himself;
"the woman needn't take me up be
fore I get the words out of my mouth!
Mrs. Wiutleu, I suppose you may be

Was this all he meant, then? And
rhere she had been expecting—Olt,
,i Moses Pitcher, the black-eyed piece
of mischief! Couldn't he be in a bet

widow's houses, making believe old'

deceived by his specious hints, she
'tiled gone and bought lavender. rib.

Would she ever hear the last of it
from sister Dorms?
Before Mr. Means had wiped his
face and 'rubbed up another him, the
, wary • widow had united her alp-'.
strinp. She didn't sea the sense of
sinsiking them with prispiratlon for
a man that had only dropped In."
—"Good weather Go ebeese, as you
were remarking, Mr. Menus," in jm
tone as still as icing, but with nearly
as much* reserved sweetness. "Do
you keep n largo dairy, sir ?" ---
"Not so very," returned Mr.'

allusion to business. •'I have only

The widow tied her eap-strings.
"Oh, yev," said she, capably ; ' "I
was brought up-on a farm.'
"Want to know! Then you under

log his chair a trifle nearer the

"Work is work. I always like

"Ever made any cheese?"

I said she, with dignity. -..
” - A.h I how is it about. butter ?

"Butter, Mr. Means? I wonder

"If I wasn't so poor and lonely, and
If Dorcas wasn't so terribly trying to

The steal beads under Mr. Means'
eyebrows glittered.
"Well, now, Butt's good, that's

No answer, save a perceptible low

Means was on the point of exclaim

But prudence got the betterof him,
as usual ; and on _ the whole he left
the widow's resence without com
mitting himse p lf any farther than a
man with the best farm In the coun

Fsmire Linton had to content him
self with Nancy Grover, a %imp
with a faculty, but assured himself
meekly that he had no right to be
disappointed.
"Well, well, Mrs. Whalen, -this is

her from under his palm leaf hat

"What %nt got cooking here? • A

aloud, lifting the lid of thegreat iron

This was a crumb to much. Mrs.

won't keep her long, uncle. 'rho

Moses retreated looking back long

Amos was Luting with each a preter
naturally grave-face. While Mrs.
Whalen, seated In thosacred solitude
of her own chamber, with the door
locked and her back turned upon it,
opened her letter. It was very brief
—only four.lines—yet Mrs.'. Whalen
had not finished reading it in half an

"Dear Mrs. Whalen," it said, "bus-

it's the first I have let 'em have since
Calista's make."
"Yes" replied the relict of the late
Peter Whalen, still musing on the
motherless young Lintons; "there
are six of them, of all ages from two
to thirteen."
"What? What do you soy ?"' ex
claimed the astonished proprietor of
the cheese.
Mrs. Whalen's face glowed like a
maple tree in -October.
"What do you sag? I guessl must
iptve had my • mind on something
else," said she, in manifest confusion.
"Why," said Mr. Means, glancing;

"I don't believe that letter was

rather uneasily ; but with rare deficit
cy refrained from asking any flUtii

would have turned baCk, eiay-laid
the widow as she was Ferrying her
beer down cellar, and proposed on the I
spot. But secure hi his ignorance
anti self poinplaceney, he rode awdy
to quite another fate.
At the Fame time Squire Linton,
ringing Means door-bell, was. trying
to fortify his faint heart, which was
not to win fair lady; and above
all trying to look es if he - really had
not been attacking a sheep front the
neighboring meadow.-
The widow met him with friendly
politeness; but having learned a les

she was not expecting him in the
