"Iieally, now, If 'twas a boy, I should tlilnk ll a vlsltln' of Dlxine Providence, for cycr!, body knows that the old 'Sqtiliu Is over-fond of a drop, as his father was before him: but sceln' ns 'tis a girl, why, It won't make no difference, and her father laughs audsays,'I.ether have lt;'j but they do say nowadays that a hank crln' Is liihcrltary on lomuthln', and It wouldn't be surprlsln' but what the lit tle gill gets It from her grandfather, for If I'm sure her father likes It quite as well as ever he did, so she don't take the llkln' from him." The little girl was named Catherine Maria, but some kindly friend shortened it to Kathle, and little Kathle passed through the various stages of common babyhood. Had the mumps and tneas- 1s, chlckenpo.x, and various other af flictions to which man Is helr,lu the first few years of his existence. At length she reached her eighteenth bltlliduy, as bright and blooming a maiden as ever Father Time smiled up on. Sho was pretty and dainty from the crown of iirr curly head to the sole or her little arched foot. Of course she had adorers by the score, but she was capricious and fanciful, and not one had ever been able to llattei himself that he had won her preference. About this time, too, Kathle began to exhibit 'moods,' and one never knew what to expect from her. At times she would bo the life and spirit of the little rural gatherings, her sparkling wit bub bling up and running over in merriment and then again, she would be as glum and silent as a sphynx. Aunt Nancy watched her with anxi ous eyes, 'there s soinetliiu wrong with that child," she said once to John Wendell. "It ain't natural for a gal like her to have slch spells of nioplu'." lint the old man looked at his daugh ter over his mug of cider and said decld- Jlv: "I don't see. as she Is different from other gals. quiet, and I suppose she takes after hcr a little in these spells." About this time the community vrnt ct all afloat by the advent into Its midst of a Young man named Kalpli Anscll. He was tlln netihew of old .Ilidye Aiisell. who lived on the mitsklits of tho village ! not far from the Elms. Young Ansell was about twenty-live years of age,p)3 sesscd of a fair share of good looks.catne of a good family and was frank am) en gaging In manner. He had an inde pendent fortune, but from choice, was studying for the ministry, and he came to the little village among the hills, to recruit and it-cover from tho effects of loo close application to his chosen bttt.ly. It was not many days before his eyes discerned the particular flower of the place, and from the lhst, he was attrart ed towards Kalhle II is pmposed visit of two weeks was prolonged to two months, and when he returned to his work, If tiie indisposition which caused liim to seek u-st, was eured.lie lia.l con tracted a severe affection ot the heart, which threatened to prove more serious than the first disease. lie found It convenient at frequent intervals to run down o "LTnele An stll's" foi a few days duiing tiie next year, and one evening he slipped a gol.' vou do." A tear-drop glistened on her long lashes, linlph bent his head and kissed the sweet lips. He wassattstlcd, but Kathle had made no promise. Kalpli was called away ton distant Slate and a number of mouths elapsed before his icturn. A change graduallv stole over Kathle. Shegievv more quiet than she had ever been befoie. Her face grew while and haggard, and Into her soft brown eyes, came a look such as might come Into the eyes of a stag when, hopeless bcfoic an Impregnable, wall, l.c turns al bay. - Even Italph's letters failed to cheer her, and after the reception of each the look upon her face only grew nioic hopeless. She had n fancy for taking long walks In secluded lanes, and Aunt , Alary watched her closely, with eyes oft made dim by tears, for In her heart she believed that the poor girl was losing her m I n J , Kathle had just returned from one of her long walks, and paused in the old fashioned garden, pregnant with June's sweetest flowers. She saw a figure lap idly approaching. A look, half hope', lulf despair, sprang to her ejes. On through the trees the figure came. She stretched out her hands. "Oh Kalphl .My love, my love!" He took her in his aims tenderly, "Are you ill, hntliiu? lou look so strange. 1" he exclaimed. "No. no, not 111." She tried to smile. "Were you so glad to see me, little gill, and was It because 1 was so long In coming, that ou have grown so pale?" He put Ids hand under her chin and raised her face. "This will never do. will not leave you again. Come and sit down here. I have something to tell you." He drew her to a low seat near. "I)o you know, little gill, 1 haye come after my w Ife? And 1 do not mean to go away without her. I have been ap pointed, and in less than three weeks , , .,, , ,,, Tr t . - 1 lll WUUnl I :V.IUM , II I U Ml 1.1. tin.. A Ml, I ijer uiuiuer was nuns , , - , . lf , prepareu ior an your oujcciions, aim will not listen to one; so you see you have nothing to do but to yield grace fully." Katliie's Hps moved convulsively, but they were dry, and no sound came fotth. Her head was bent low, and he could not see her face. "You are not going to say one word against it, but will let mo have my way, like that dear little girl you are?" There was such gladness, such tender ness in ills voice. She started up, pushing lilin from her, "No! O, I dare not." "ll'Iiat do you mean, Kathle? Ican not understand " "I mean llalph, you must go away. You must never try to see me again. " I can never be your wife. Listen, and I w.ll tell j on why." She raised h-r hand, as though ap pealing for mercy, and her voice so weighted with pain, her face so white and hopeless, and her whole manner awed him and kept him silent. "I love you, Iialph, Cod only knows how much. When nil hope was dead, 1 prayed for strength to give you up. Look upon me, Iialph Ansell. You, who are so noble, so grand, and strong, look upon mc! Despise mo If you must, hut still pity me. Thu woman upon whom fight agntnst tide fearful thing, God will give you strength, 1 know." "No, no, Halphl It can never bo. There is no hope for mc, none, none! Cod has forsaken me. Oh, mother, mother, If Iliad only died when J on lid!" Oh, the despair, the anguish In her voice! It wreiiched the , heart of the man wh loved her more than death could have done. In vain he urged her to marry lilm still. She was linn. Shu. would not yield, and bade htm go his way and leave her to her w retched doom. t last he left her, resolved to come again on the morrow and renew- his en treaties. He turned back once, and saw her. slaudlng still, wheic he had left her; her slender figure outlined against the roses, her small hands clasped over her heart, the despairing look of her face in her very attitude, A longing came over him. He re traced his steps, look her In his arm', kissed her eyes and Hps and brow, then without looking back he disappeared f 1 0111 sight. Aunt Nancy awoke ,from her after noon nap. The housu seemed strangely quiet. The clock pointed to half-aflei live. Shu hastily arose and began to picnarc the evening meal. Kathle had not returned, she thought. The master of the Elms came In "Where Is Kathle?" ho asked. "She weir, out afler dinner," aunt Nancy replied, "and has not got back 1 'spose she must have gone lothevil dagc, though she didn't say nothing about it." The meal was eaten In silence, nml aunt Nancy cleaved away the dishes, and sat down to her knitting to wateli for the absent one. The shadows of night gathered, but Kathle did not return. "ilaybeshe Intendsstaylngall night," said aunt Nancy, uneasily, "but 1 Le- lleve I would ride over und see. need some tea, anyway." Hut John Wendell was getting old and stiff, and so he said, "It looks consider ably like a storm, and 1 expect she stayed until It got so late she thought she would wait till morning. She Isnl right somewhere, and gals Is not apt to think about old folks worrying about them." So the night passed, and tltc next day they found her. At the foot of the old garden flowed a little stieam, nar row-hut deep in the channel. It was spanned by a little foot bridge. Kalhle had crossed It safely hundreds of times but this lime her foot slipped, and the sparkling river lecelved her in its cold embrace. So said the son owing friends gathered at the house of mourning; but Iialph knew belter, and aunt Nancy knew bet ter; but the secret leiuaiued lucked in each faithful bieast As the silver threads showed them selves in his dark hair, people said "How ho must have loved her, for his sorrow has made him old before hi time." iialph was a christian who believed his bible, but in his heart he felt tha: even her last mad act might be forgiven by the merciful Father, who seeth and UnovveTT-U .

And when somo of the trees grew tired of being climbed, nti.i pounded, and shaken, by urchins with rubber coated stomaehes, and deliberately died, they were it-placed with tho same old varieties, and John Wendell, filled his ban els each autumn, with cider, made from apples just as sour, and hard, anil knuily,ns those which his ancestors had used for the same purpose.

The year had brought Its changes in Kalhle. Kalph'shail been a prosperous woo'ng, and Ihe luckless Ullage swains had early withdrawn from the contest. Every one said that it was a splendid match. Kathle was sole heiress lo the Elms, and although showing the angu lar lines of primitive days, It was a grand old place, and the villagers all said that she had "done well." Hut pretty Kathle had not thought of rank, money or position, when she whis pered "yes." She only thought that Iialph loved her. That she was to have ills love tluough life, and then tluougli all eternity. Her own love made her humble, and then, she was not the proud, im perious Kathle she had once been. Aunt Nancy saw the change and it-ioiceil, for the 'moods,' had disappeared, and Kalhle went ai ound the old house, busied with house-wifely duties, singing lite, a bird. This lasted nearly a year, but to every argument of Italph's urging an early day for their marriage, she gently put him off. It was the anniversary of their be trothal. They were returning at a late hutir from ti social gathering, but as bvors will, loitered slowly along in the moonlight. ltalph had never seen Kathle so gay as she had been all evening. lie had been pleased to nolo how- eKry one yielded' to' her. He was proud of her fresh, sweet beauty, and as they walked slowly along herlittle hand resting upon ids sleeve, be thought that he had never loved her half so well as then. "Kathle, dear, jou must not think me unreasonable or arrogating, but I have a favor to ask of jou, Will sou grant It?" "What Is It, please'.'
