Ilia hair Is crisp, and black, ahd long, His face is like the tan ) His brow is wet with lioueit sweat, He earns wbate'er he can, And looks the whole world in tbe face, For he owes not any man, Week In, week out, from morn till night' You can hear his bellows blow! You ran heal- him swing his heavy sledge, With measured beat and slow, Like b sexton ringing the village bell, When the evening sun is low. And children coming home from school Look in at the open door; They love to see tbe flaming forge, And hear tbe bellows mar, And catch the burning sparks that fly Like cball from a thresbini floor. He goes mi Sunday to the church, And sits among his boys; He hears the parson pray and preach, He bears his daughter's Voice, Singing in the village choir, And it makes his heart rejoice. It sounds to him like the mother's voice, Singing In Paradise; He needs must think of her once mofe. How in ttitl grave she lies' And, with his hard, rough hand he wipes A tear out of his eyes. Tiiilfng rejoicing sorrowing. Onward through llfo he goes; Each morning sees some task begin, Each evening sees it cloib) Something attempted, something done, Has earned a night's repose.

"Well, we wanl hb wants lo leave all his real and personal properly to me, with full powers ti executrix nnd I am to take care of his only child, and make for her snoh allowances as I shall think wise." "What is yoiir daughlef'a name?" "She's not my daughlerl"she answered with thn slightest token of a gathering animation in her voice. "Ab, yes; just so I" said I, nervously fumbling with the paper, "She's your step-daughter.1' "Y s, sir.1' 'What's her name? You see tmust mention it." "Mabel Cecil," sbe haltingly spoke. "A deuced pretty name 1" i remarked to myself. "I wouder why sho wants to stumble so over pronouncing it."

Tbe lime dragged slow! v. very slowlv. and I never felt taofe 'gtnuino relief in bearing htavy wheels grinding tbrongb tbe mud aud Mush, nnd u knock! t g at the door to notify me that all was ready. I sprang into tbe carriage, and away we dashed tbrongb tbe darkness, now so heavy and sullen that I could nct,fo tbe life of me, discover to what part of tbe town we were being driven. But it seem ed a very short lime before we came to a sudden halt, aud the carriage door open ed. Tbe coachman conducted me up the bronn stone steps, where the open door ass already waiting me. aud I stepped into tbe dimly lighted ball. As I did ko, a lady whose figure and manners told me was Madam Ctcil.glided from a side room, and with a little plain tive smile, bid me follow ber at once.

"What? Who?" as be started from a seeming stupor, nnd locked woudering )y at me from his sunken eyes. "He wjll read it to you now, Mr, Ce cil;" adding, in a low tone, "Heis sink ing rapidlt ; I fear you tunsl batten," I felt that I must, I bad seated my self by bis bedside, and as I did so I saw bis lips tremble, ind I bellsrej they were a Year if Paid in Advance.

"Mrs. Cecil, may I thank you for a glass of water?" as I took out the will she had had drawn. "Quick, sir, quick!" wild I.udI noticed his sunken eyes watchiug hef hastening footsteps. "Do you want your daughter to bave all your property, save what the law glycs yonr wift?" 11a started back from me as if be could not trust bis own senses, or vim doubting whether to put coufliknco in iWe; but he R.etned to feel the necessity of doing sn, and suddenly tbe dull eyes brightened with a mnuiontary gleam of relief aud joy as he clearly answered "Yes, yes!
