Sho had slipped in at tho back door of tho burn, patted tho red cow who stood ruminating in her stall, m.vlo her self a cosy littlo nest in the fragrant hay upstairs, nnd, lighting tin old hintcru, sut down to rend. Suddenly thero c.iine a hciitating foot step on the threshold outside. Tho door opened. Matty started from her book. Sho leaned over tho big beam, all fringe 1 with liny, which made tho partition of her impromptu divan. "Who's there?" she called. "Jim oh, Jim I Don't be frightened, it's mo Matty. I'm hiding from mothor. We've had a difference of opinion. Mothor has taken four horrid, stupid ministers to board for a week it's soinn kind of convention, Jim and Oh, do wait a minute!" Sho swung herself lightly over the beam nnd alighted, liko a fluttering, bright-crested bird, on tho Moor of the barn. "Oh, Jim, if you only know " "I beg your pardon,'' spoku a quiot, composed voice, in the deep, wcll-inodu-luted tones .that buipcnk much practice, "but I think there must bo somo mis tako.

"Why," sho exel umod, "it's Mr. Hereford 1" "That is my name. And you nre Matty Mills," said a stranger, a sudden light of recognition illuminated his face. "But, if it is an allowable question how on earth came you hero?' "In tho most natural ,ay in the world. 1 livo here. And tju!" & (till UI.IU I J Hl.ll.Ul ..,. , v , wuvbu "Mr. Beresfordl" .

'Ii u nok head, '- :w..,6r.tible fact. I am ouo of the four horrid ministers." Matty lowered hor lantern. "May I ask your cirand at tho barnt" said sho, in an altered voice. "Though pcrheps my mother sent you to find me?" "No. She told mo to come hero to put up my hoise; ho is waitlug cut side." "Oh, pror fellow, lio must bo very tired 1" said Matty, hurriedly, hanging tho lautcru on a hook. "Open tho big door, Lead him luto ono of tho empty stalls. Not that side. Bo-ssio is there the cow and sho isn't used to hones." With quick, deft hands, the girl to.sscd down an armful of hay into tho mnngur aud showed Mr. Beresford where to II ud tho painted pail wherewith to bring water from tho well, uud then leuviug tho lantern as a guide, she vanished. Mr. Beresford smiled quietly as he made his horse comfortable, and then re turned to tho houso, whero Mrs. Mills had prepared an appetizing repast. But when he went to bod at tun o clock lucre was no sign of Matty's return. Mrs. Mills herself hurried over to Aunt Betsy's houso in the morning. " Where' Martha?" suidsho. "I want her." "Marthyl" cchood Aunt Betsy, put ting ono hand behind hor ear aftor the fashion of deaf people. "What uhout Marthyl Sho ain't been hero." "Then where is sho?" criud Mrs. Mills. 'How should I know?" counter-ques-tionod Aunt Betsy, irritably. "Sho was always as full of kinks as a clothesline on a wet day '." sighed Mrs. Mills. "I guess I'll jest havo to do tho best I can without her. Sho was dread ful opposed to my boardiu' tho four rev erends; but I guess my will's as atro:ig as her'n. I'll get along somehow, and Martha shan't huvo a cent of tho nu tiey I earn no, not a cent I nut uin t it i muy, Betsy?

The convention had been iu sosslon several days, when, during Mr. litres fords sermon in tho crowuoa va.ago church, his eyes fell on Matty Mills's face, half hidden iu the shadow of ouo j( tho quaint wooden pillars. He paused a moment In mid-sen ooco; then ho collected himself, and wort ou at brilliantly as ever. But when he hud finished, ho did not stay to hear tho Uevorend Iluymoud tush ing'a "remarks," whloh csme next, but slipped out into the fresu air and star light. Bo that when unconscious Yatty emerged, liko a slim shadow, he qu.itly nut out his hand aud stopped her. She I started Tioloutly, Stop nlnuto,"aal(l he. "Why art you cryingt." "I I didn't want to cry!" aald she, sobbing and dollar. t. "But you mads me you preached that sermon right at mel "I wasn't thinking of you, Misi Matty," ald ho, quietly, "until my eys fell on your face. All the tamo, if the cap fits you, by all means put it on." "I won't bo so willful for tho future, murmured Matty. "I'll give up my own way. I'll come back this very night and help mothor in her own fashion. Aftor all sho is older than I am, and wiser." Sho spoke partly lis if sho were think ing aloud, as sho added "I had meant to go up north again and teach, but it mother wants mn to stay here-" And nobody but Mnltie herself and posibly Mr. Bcrcsford, in a lesser degreo know what it cost the girl to relinquish her ambitious dreams and tako up tho humble, homely burden of cvery-day lifo again. But she did it bravely, "Martha ain't tho samo gal sho wa," complacently spoko Mrs. Mill". "I al ways knowed if I talked to her long enough I could mako her hear reason.

"I guess you've heard somo of the neigh bors' gossip. Alotizo Whitcotnb did sk her to murry him, but she refused." "Nevertheless, sho is going to xs mnr ricd. To me, Mrs. Mills.
