So a carrier, who was going near to Kilburn, as an act cf charity, took the two girl Lizzie was seven now, and Mary was five in his cart with him. The "timid children kept very quiet and close together, and the carrier hardly looked at thein. Towards noon they reached the spot where the cart would turn off. The man lifted them out, showed them the road to the left, and bade them go straight forward, and if they did not turn from the high road they' would in about two hours come to the place. He then drove off. The children sobled out "good-bye," and looked after him as long as they could see the least speck of the cart, and then they both began to cry. Lizzie ceased her crying first ; she took hold of her little sister's hand, who had seated herself on the grass, and said, "(Jet up, Mary !

It seemed as if he wished to say: "Don't drive my guests away !" At that sight a great change came over theman ; the spectacle before him acted like an electric shock, and feel ings such as he never had before seemed to stir within him. The children had risen, terrified at the call of the man, fearful of punish ment for having eaten, with downcast eyes. At last, after several minutes' silence, the farmer asked : "Are you really so fearfully hungry that 3-ou do not even despise the dog's food ?

"But suppose she pays for the miss ing work ?" "it isn't likely she'll do that," said Dennison. "This sort of girl has sel dom ten dollars ahead." "I don't believe it's her fault, Denni son.'" insisted I. "She's responsible, isn't she?" "Yes, but " Just then Mr. Buttonbell came in with a great order in his hand from a -New Orleans houe. I looked at it. "We shall have a tight pull of it, sir, to fill this," said I, dubiously. "But it must be filled," said he; "put on all your hands. Turn on a full head of steam. It won't do to let Peck it Pattison go to any other place." And he bustled away. "Very unfortunate," said Dennison. "Lame Hetty was one of our very best hands." 1 Jetty Dorranee came the next moni iny as usual to receive work, and she had a ten dollar bill in her hand. "Some kind friend lias sent this to pay for the lost rolls of work, sir," said she to me. "You're in luck, Hetty," said I, frowning over a long column of figures and trying not to blush under the earn est look of her soft, brown eyes. "And I'm much, oh, so much obliged to him, whoever he is," she added, in a low tone. "But I can't use it unless unless you think I am innocent." "Of course I do," said I, looking up, at the quiver of her voice. "I don't believe you would take a pin, Hetty. I have known you for four years, and I believe you are a good girl. It's an awkward mistake somehow, but there's not many mistakes, my girl, but that God clears up in his own good time. Now take your place in tlie line ; there is no time to be lost this morning." So the matter was settled ; but some how a cloud rested on Lame Hetty. Those who had been her fast friends befoie avoided her now; tlie coarser minded whispered and giggled when the "tap, tap" of her crutch sounded on the floor. "Oh, Mr. Harvey," said poor Hetty one day, when Jennie Warren, tlie proudest and prettiest of our girls, re fused to acknowledge her modest bow, "it's very, very hard to bear." . "Well", Hetty, only wait," said I, cheerily. "But it's breaking my heart," said she. "Thev all think I am a thief." "I don't, "Hetty." "I know that, sir. I should drown myself if at least one person in the world diil not believe me innocent." j ine winter wore itself awav. The "Well," retorted the old man. cau tiously, "it's necessary to curtail tin list a little, and it may as well be Lame Hetty as any one." But Hetty Dorranee never came to learn her doom. Day after day went by, and the familiar tap of her crutch sounded no more oh the floor. I grew uneasy. Perhaps she is sick alone, in want ! thought I. And the more I pondered on the matter tlie more uneasy I f-.lt. Perhaps she is dead ! A nd with that last, overwhelming thought came tlfe full reve lation of my own heart. I had grown to love lame Hettv Dorranee. Well, and why not? I I could alTord a wife as well as must men; Hetty was only a sewing girl, and lame at that, but she had a face like one of Cod's angels, and a heart as white as a lily. Of that 1 felt cer tain. I loved her. Why should I not mai ry her 1 So I sat down and wrote her a little note, saving simply that I loved her, and asking her to consent to lioeome . j my wife; and I concluded by saying j that I would call on the morrow to re- j ceive her answer. Just after I had sent my le tter off, there came a knock at the door. "Mr. Harvey, are you alone can I speak to you ?" "Is that you, Helena Arden ? Why, I thought you were married and gone to California !" "I am married to a spendthrift and a villain," said she, with a little horse laugh, "and I am going to California to-morrow, but I wanted to see you first. I wanted to pay you something." "For what?" "The roll of work that the people accused Hetty Dorranee, the lame girl, of taking." "Helena, did you take it?" "Yes," she replied, recklessly. "I ifw ir 1 1 wfiTfl tnviii.v cu-o - mf i n i men; ine lanuiauy unmut let me about the size of a Hour barrel, and have my trunks to he married until I ; -,vi(i, JV o,,,! set of natural teeth.
