BY LUCY C, Sanam MorLyxerx crossed the hall of her aunt's house in Chelster and stood irresolutely for a moment at the head of the old-fashioned Her hand moved a little nervously on the balustrade, and the line between her delicate dark brows deepened, “If it were only over with —or needn't be at all,” she reflected. But there was no way to avoid the un- | pleasant task ahead of her, and ac. cordingly Sarah passed down the stairs and into the square parlor over- lookiug the garden. In about half an hour old Mrs. Thorpe in her room | upstairs heard the front door close, aud a quick step go down the garden pathway. Presently Sarah came back. | The old lady wus propped up in bed and turned a pair of very bright, clear eyes upon her niece as she en- tered the room. i * Well,” Mrs. Thorpe exclaimed | with impatience. “Sit right down und tell me all about it. And don't | oblige me to ask too many questions. You know how I bate to have to wring anything out of vou.” Sarah laugiied. “I'll do my best, Aunt Polly,” she answered, sitting down in the window and looking with | gentle indulgence at the old lady. “I suppose I must begin at the begin. ning. I found Mr. Morison, of course, in theparlor aud he fairly jumped at the business question. ”’ * Humph, what'd he say 2” “Said that he would uot think of disturbing you while you were ill but that it was very important for him to know when he could take possession of the house. He intends putting up | the factory at once, he says. He ob- served that Mr. Beecham had ex- vlained how fond we were of the old rouse and all that, but of course we could hardly expect him to be senti- | mental in a business matter.” ** Did he talk like that right to your face, Sarah Molyneux ?”’ “Yes, Aunt-1 can't say-—well {it didn't sound quite so bold ; but those were his words,” ** Who does he favor in looks-—the Turners, Iguess.” Mrs. Thorpe leaned back and closed her eves a moment, visions of the high cheek bones and! wominent noses of the Turners float- ng before her. Sarah thought of them too, sharply in contrast with | the looks of her recent guest, ** He's not a bit like the Turners,” | &he said, presently. “I don’t know the Morisons much,” she added. “Let | ne gee he is not very tall—rather| sioxht but looks strong and has u | civan-shaven dark face,” | “ Handsome ?*’ Mrs. Thorpe's eyes | opened for an instant, ** Oh, no—not at all—oh no, not the | least bit handsome ; but he has «| quick, bright sort of look.” ** Bo he's going to put up a factory | ~dear,dear—I did think- but well no «of course the property's his since your Uncle Ezra left it to him by will ~]1 never thought Ezra'd do it. Al ways took for granted he meant it ghould be mine outright and —after lotting me live here forty years.” “ I said something of the kind to Mr. Morison. He's coming back this evening. ”’ ** What for; he isn't going to build to-night, is he 7" “Ob, no. He wants to see the gar. den very particularly.” * Well, you make it clear I want the plants, When the objectionable guest had aid his second visit, Sarah came back » hier aunt's room looking very much discouraged, ** Well, what now ?"* demanded the old lady with scorn. ** Ho says we can’t have the garden disturbed, Aunt Polly,” said Sarah, sitting down dejectedly, ‘1 took him down to the arbor, and we had a staircase, i very nice talk at first, I really al- most liked him. We began about country life, and he told me how much he had longed for a real coun- try home—a place something like this, he said - the he asked who took vire of the garden, and I told him I was your gardener, and how much we both loved the flowers. I showed him the tree planted when I was a baby, and then the rosebush for my tenth birthday: and he said that he should think we'd hate to leave it all then I explained you wanted the plants; but he said oh, no! it was all | part of the property.” | “Turner straight through and;/ through,” declared the old lady, | * Grasping all they can get. 1 will have the plants, though ;I guess Ezra’s | will had nothing to say to them." “1 could scarcely be civil after that,” pursued Sarah, her face flush- ing in the dusk. **I changed the sub- ject, and asked him how nearly he wus related to the Turners; but he | said it was very distant.

He likes something to conquer. I told him I bad no fancy for battleflelds; he said a skirmish was as good as success to him.

But he says there's quite a touch of romance in the whole affair. He's a very sort of person, Aunt.

When she had been left a widow forty years ago, Ezra Turner had promptly bade her stay on in the house which had seen the happy years of her married life, and th had been endeared to her by a hundred different associations: the sorrows it had witnessed consecrated the place almost as ten- the time she had brought her little with the old mansion, Ezrn's will fell like a thunderbolt upon the old lady and her niece, Indeed, there was little question but that it caused the weak scious of the voices {rom below, something like a wish never to leave resting lace brought a hot moisture into 160 eVes, It seemed a long time before Mr. Morison went away. When the door had closed upon him at last Mrs. Thorpe, alert for every sound, heard Sarah lingering on the stairs, Pres. ently the girl appeared. Her cheeks were scarlet, “Well,” demanded the old lady, now? what new thing's he going to claim?" Sarah's color now swept ull her face, “Oh, Aunt Polly,” she said, “it's all as queeras queer can be, Oh, ifyou’ll only let me.
