That is he said exactly what be

his special errand as to Maude, the

'Yes, sir, ery Rladly."
"Well, it's pleasant to bear you

to let Maude marry till 1 can give

''It is Dot worth waiting for, air,

"All right, Mr. Masters, said the
old gentleman.
Harry and Nande were very fond
of each other, and now talked over
the matter orr seriously. Man la
oonld not blame ber fathor, and did
uot like tbo idea of going to Harry
without a proper portion to contii
bute to their joint partnership iu
dotoostio life.
"Never mind, Harry, said the
handsome young girl j "Ellen will
soon bo married. I bars protty good
reason for knowing.'
Ab, but thon your father says be
wants time to pick np a inirriagn
portion for you, and that will take
threo or four yours, perhaps."
That is a poo l while, is It not.

"Not quite bj bad as that,' said
Maudo.
"I'm sure my bair will be gray by

"Nonsonse, Harry I Now yori are
joking."
"I was never more earnest in my
lifo,' said bo, as bo stole a kiss from
her pretty lips and ran away, so n
not to hear hor ohide trim for his
bull IIUH-t.
"Maudo said her father, coming
into the hotiso from tho barn,' "1
wish vou would ride tho sorrel mare
into E inton. and get thin hundred

work'uou bavo got dono with tho

"Very well, fathor. Lot John

After a fow minutes' thought she re

to do so. Kate seoniod against her

however, nnd even followed Mtude

Hhe was forced to give np hor er

Mutinied able to do so. Sho there

she p.iasnd the outskirts f the town
when she was overtaken by the
stranger who had spoken with her
in the last storo, an 1 who at fist
thought he could change her bill
He was mounted upon a fine look
ing bay horse, and saluted her re
spectfully as he came nlongsido.
"Did you gut yot'.r Uill changed T"
he asked.
"No i small bills seemed scarce,"
she replied
"Uo you live near here t"
"About five miles off."
"Quite a rilo "

"Yon are generous to admit it,"
said the stranger.
"Why. it's only the truth." she
answered frankly.
After they bad pissed ovor about
two miles, they came to a very lone
ly piece of road, quite removed from
any dwelling bouses. Still as the
stranger appeared so gent'emanly.
and bad addressed her so politely,
she bad not tho leiint suspicion of
any Avil iittention on bis p u t.
Presently he aaul su4 leuly, "I
aill thank yort for that bill "

"Please give ma that bill."
"What do you mean T ' said Miss
Maud. ,
"Just what I say I" ba replied

"I shall do no' tuoli thing I" abe
answered firmly.

"Do yon mean to rob' ma I "
"I must have the money."
