HIS WIFE.
The sun had jn,t bet when I nrrlvcd
nt Somerset station. A whole ratio lo
walk lu the pleasantest part of the pleus-
nutest country in tho worl .1 Soft hilln.
bathed in the buu'a parlin ylow, dolled
the landscape on evtry side, aud over
all smiled a te'uder, brooding sky. What
keeu enjoyment the anticipation of a
summer all alone with my btst friend
hid afforded ine nud now I was almost
t lere. There was the house; idd, bnmu
and many roomed, nud most nt tue room
01 the grouud floor. Griitidmnthtr hei-
s If. had beeu tho architect of the estab
lishment.
! I told your grandfather," salt! she.
on ouo occasion, that no man was going
to pluu n house for mo to live in. What
toes it man know, I should like to be
told, of a uomau's need? It' bed built it
according to his untinii. thero would Line
beeu three or four flights cfetnira, aud
theu, with a baby on each nun nnd Iwo
three banging to my tittticnatx, I
iiijgUjt Imve i-punt most U my time uu'ein
but I, knew liettet!
As eteuts provttl. grandmother was
oorreet iu her prediction. An enlhusi-
istic lover of nature was this old lady ul
seventy years. Yis, there tho whs! I
oiught u glimpse of her white sleeve on
he window-Mil. I would walk sollly iu
nud MirprUe her. How exquisite the
tastaof I bis prei-iditig geuiusl Heliotrope,
iniguonitle, aud white rostbl Graud
uiolher"s roue bushes were tho euvy ol
the ulnlu ueighboihood. Shy little vio
lets bordered the gravelled walk leading
to the lu-.v door-s'oue, aud over beyond,
in graudmolher's pet field, millions ol
yelloa-heartcd daisies nodded aud beck
oued lo the soil evening breeze. Avoid
ing tho treacherous pebbles, I cut quiet
ly across to the front door, stealing wilb
oil-like trend through the long, narrow
h.IUay, and eutenug the sitting room
ou my tip toes. Wonderful victory!
rwice before bad I tried this wonderful
lodge, und each time had tho turkey
gobbler oetmyed me. Where was he on
his otcasion; and wby, when I really
need his services, did lie not prove my
I'riena? Soflly, sollly, (inly a step or two
more. The sensation of the next miuute
wasn't nnj tLiiig to speak of j I intan by
tbat it was iudescribable. The back ol
giandmotLer's big arm chair quite hid
the occupant, nnd, nothing doubting, I
mii-le with great dexlerily lor grind
mother's ves. I found the eje, but
tiny didn't beloug to graudmother. I
knew that before their saucy pwuerhad
imj risoued my hands.
"Yho is ii?" taid he, like one first
awakening from n sit ep, "Letuie guts?.
The flugi rs are too little for Madge, aud
too 1 tug to bilong to Sarah!"
1 found my tongue theu. I would not
wrencli'iny bauds away. That would be
rn'ileutbs; for he evidently supposed tin in
the properly of some Intimate friend.
"ricase release me," I mid; nud then,
ns he rose quickly apparently surptixd
by Ihe voioo of a stranger I added,
rather ludicrously, I suppose, fur the tall
fellow in the sliit sleevts laughed light
heirtiiy, "I thought you wire gruucl
milhei?'' "Never was taken for an old lidy be
fore," be answered with provoking mm
aaalauce; aud then addtd, as he hastily
threw cn a dresaing-gowu, "what do yuu
tbiuk about it now?"
"I think I should like to kuow where
graudmother is. aud "

That evening marked a new er in my

I heard uo more, waited for no more,

the path leadiug to the road, and in less
