uevur loud a he wad of n good story

was to Certify to tbe truth of a Bltitemeut,

Wesley, bo otherwise eateemed Bjb per
fection, lie bad allied himself with u
Ct.rliu class of persona who termed
t trnjelvea "free tbiuWra."
This tbtolt.gical difference at last led
to little quarrel; aud Bub tried to get
Aunie out of bis tniud, but failed to do
it; aud Annie was very miserable, as well
lur tbe auke of B b'e uul us for her.etf ;
lor though ebo bud offers u plenty, not
oue not cvtu rich John Grub, who bad
eyer so many acres of land could be
compared for a moment in her rniud to

U.ib rode along, hloly and stupidly for
luni. be saw, sitting under a tree, a little
Uiiure in a ulna nr"ss that ne could not

lorae aud called out

"As it I were to b i oouverted like a
i'tner in n tract!" said Bb, after he bud
nl den on n piece. "But, women are
not eip.cted to have minds like ours."
vud out of anothet pocket he pulled un
nfliM tract, which a Ineud, uu uubeliev-
t,g doctor, bad loaned hlni, aud fell to
udiug.
It wua not a wise thing, as the event
irnVrd. for the burse, lelt to himselt,
stumbled over goinethiug in the road and
wan luuid, not badly, it seemed, but it
rued Bob to dismount, and stop at a
country store, to examine aud balbe tbe
limb, und then be had to let the beast
uke bis umu time afterward; ko that, iu
itieud of trotting briskly iuto Macon be-
ore suudowu, tbe young nun found
b.uistlt belated, ou a lnmly rt ad, some

"Tbat won't be Iour, then," said the

was useless to try to overcome tbe rob

About that time a parly of yonug men
who had started out lor a coon hunt and
had been attracted by the piatol sunt,
came up with their huge, flaring toiches
and a score of ugly-loouking dogs at

they asked him for no explanutiuu, but
with three routing cheers, started toward
