Mr. Motherwell's premises may be seen
in the agricultural journals, machinery

Uttle m. Krnncis was Hhrx-kcd. What in
a large stone house, square and gray,
lonelv nnd bare without a tree or a
shrub around it. Mr. Motherwell did
not like vines or trees around a house.
They were npt to attract lightning nnd
bring vermin.
Potatoes grew from I he road to Hie
house; and around the fiont door, as
high as the vcrnndn. weeds flourished
in abundance, undisturbed and un
noticed. llehiud the cookhouse a bed of pop
pies llamcd scarlet ngainst the general
somberness, nnd gave a strange touch
of color to the common grayness. They
seemed out of place in the busy farm
jard. Everything else was there for
use. Everybody hurried but the pop
pieB : idlers of precious time, suggestive
of slothful sleep, they held up their
brnzen faces in careless indifference.
Snm had not planted them vou may
be sure of that. Mrs. Motherwell would
tell j on of nn English girl she had to
work for her that summer who had
brought the seed with her from Eng
land, nnd of how one day when she sent
the girl to weed the onions, she had
found her blubbering nnd crying over
what looked to Mr Mothrwell nnth
mg mote tjinn weeds The girl then
told her she had brought the seed with
her and planted il llieie She was the

Mrs. Motherwoll would tell you just

"I never sec the beat o' that girl,"
Mrs. Motherwell would say. "Them

"Well, I had to stop her at Inst,"
Mrs. Motherwell would tell oii with nn
apologetic swallbn, which showed thnt
even generous people have to be firm
sometimes iu the discharge of unpleas
ant duties.
"And, mind you." Mrs. Motherwell
would go on, with a gr.evcd air, "just
ns the busy time came on didn't she
iin nnd take the fever you never can
depend on them English girls nnd
when the doctor wns outside there In
the buggy wnltln' for her he took her

ing." Sam Motherwell nnd his wTe were
nominally Presbyterians. At the time
that the Mlllford Presbyterian Church
was built Sam had given twenty-five
dollars toward it, the money having
been secured in tome strange way by
the wiles of Purvis Thomas, the col
lector. Everybody was surprised at
Sam's prodigality. The next year, a
new collector for Purvis Thomns had
gone uwny called on Mr. Motherwell.
The ernln wait fust hesinnlne to show,
n slight tinge of gold. It was one of
those cloudless sunshiny days In the be
ginning of August, when a faint blue
haze lies on the Tiger Hills, nnd the
joy of being nllvn swells in the. breast
ot every living thing. The creek, swol
len with, tho July rnln, ran full In Its
narrow channel, spnrkllng nnd swirling
over its gravelly bed, nnd on the green
meadow below the house n herd of short
horns contentedly cropped tho tender
after-grass.
In tho farmynrd a gigantic turkey
gobbler marched majestically with arch
ed neck and spreading wings, feeling
himself very much tho king of the
castle; good-natured ducks puddled con
tentedly in a trough of dirty water;
pigeons, white winged and graceful,
circled nnd'whcclcd iu the sunshine;
querulous-voiced hens strutted and
scratched, and gossiped openly ot mys
terious nests. hidden away.
Ham stood lenninr nn A nltchfork In
front of tho barn door. He wns n stout
man of about fifty years of nge, with an
ox-like face. His countenance showed
the sullen stolidity of a man who spoke
little but listened always, of n man
who indulged in suspicious thoughts.
He knew everything about his neigh
bors, good and bad. He might forget
the good, but never the evil. The
tragedies, the sins, the misdeeds of
thirty years ngo were ns fresh in his
memory as tho scandal of yesterday. No
man had ever been tempted beyond his
strength but Sam Motherwell knew tho
manner of his undoing. He extended no
morcy to the fallen ; he suggested no
excuso for the erring.
