W us not remark
able ; there was no special beauty of oui-
Une, no dazzling complexion, no soft
colored waving hair. It was white and
slender, and would have been spiritless t
~ only for tho restless eyes and blood-rod
lips. The forehead was broad and
thought-impressed, with dark brown halt
brushed back and closely braided from
the face which happiness might have
beautified, but whicli was now undeniably
plain, and tinged with the cold gray huo
which pervaded earth, air and sky.
Annio Raymond stood for an hour
looking persistently out, not on the
dreary landscape alone, but into her
drearier future. Since hor mother's
♦"death, which occurred during her child
hood, she had experienced no bitter
trials; but little, trifling troubles had
.made hor "daily llfo unlovely and un
pleasant.
The family was large and in very mod
erate circumstances; and, like all poor
people of th<- present day, struggling to
make one dollar show for two, and so
appear richer th n they really ure.
•Jane, tho older sister, took ciiargo of
the house, and ruled tho younger chil
dren with a rod of iron. The two girls
u-ho came next wore both married and
struggling with largo families and pov
erty. A brothor next younger had left
home- and was seeking his fortune—a
Jiopeiess task. Then came Annie, age 21,
and then sisters younger still The
lather w s a grave, hard-working man.
who usually dozod away the time ho spent
at home.
Anuie's life hud been monotonous
en ugh thus far. There was housowork
in the mornings and in the afternoons
• the sisters sowed for a furnishing stow
in the village, barely earning a sufficient
suin to clothe them in the plainest ap
parel.
There had been a time when Annie in
dulged in rosy dreams of the luti ir
i her life was so monotonous, so lacking in
' Incident, these were soon dispelled. He;
older sisters furnished striking examples
8f what her own life would be.
Should sho chi|ose, slngle-blessednes
and become a cross, unhappy old muid
like Jane? or follow in the footsteps of
Surah and Sue, and be a sickly, task-bur
dened wife, with scarcely an hour s peace
nnd quiet?
Neither picture looked inviting to a
young girl who hail a passionate longing
for the luxurious and beautiful things <>;
this life, so she grew graver as she
went about the same simple, homely
ta-ks day after day, and Jane's reprov- j
ii>t: voice grated more and more harshly j
upon her sensitive ear, until it seemed u
if she must cry out like a hurt child under |
the pain of her life-burden, and sho was
only dumb for very shame.
For her sisters seemed happy in acer- |
lain degree, and was her life harder lo |
bear than theirs?
"They never think," she said; "I do; BO j
much tho worse for me; but I cannot
make them understand how terrible a
life like theirs seems to me, it is so ut
terly devoid of beauty and even com
fort."
, But during tho previous winter a
) change came over the spirit of hor dream.
George Hastings came to Glenville, and
imm her lirst acquaintance with him her
life brightened. Ho was only a mer
chant's clerk, hut capablo an 1 energetic,
and a favorite with his employer.
Whon Annio flrst mot him sho only saw
a rather small and uninteresting-appear
ing young man, who conversed agree
ably. AVben sho saw him for the second
time she thought he had fine eyes, and
before the evening was over she con
fessed that his smile was beautiful.
Then, as their acquaintance progressed,
she found their tastes were similar in
many tilings.
After this he often called upon her,
evenings, and read aloud to her while
jhe was busy with her sewing. Num
oerless little attentions followed, ren
dered in a tender, dellcuto way, and
lor a time Annie was supremely happy.
George was slowly but surely approach-
I ifig a declaration—she was certain of
this—and as she thought it over in her
nilud, doubts began to creep in where
I contentment had reigned.
Who loved him so well sho could have
died for him, and without him life would
ij tie utterly desolate. *But he was very
ipoor, with only a small sum as yet laid
aside for a rainy day. Would her life,
after all her tender dreams, be different
from Sue's, or Sarah's, if she married
fcim?
V. Jane, seeming to understand Annie's
dilemma, lectured long and eloquently
upon the subject of marriage.
■George Hastings was a fine young man,
ohe told Annie, who would make his
mark in tho world yet, if he wasn't such
, a fool as to marry and burden himself
with a wife, A wife was a fearful drag
to any man. Single life, for either man
or woman, was the only true and noble
life to lead; and any woman who mar
ried because she was tired of taking car*
of herself was a moral ooward.
So, pondering UDon Jane's words until
s she was nearly demented, Annie stood
J looking out upon the clouded skies in the
chill November afternoon, and thinking
desolately of the clouds hoveriDg over
her life-sky.
L ' "'.Will it tie always so?" she assed her |
A self, bitterly, as bhe turned away. "Oh,
'j I ara HO tired of the clouds of sorrow ! ,
Will the si'Dhhlae of Joy never come?"
A At this moment one of her youngei I
[ sisters came in with a letter for Annie. ,
I Jn svrue surprise—for ft bore a city post
mark —she ojiened it.
kg With the early heat of suipmer a lad
I had come tn board at Glenville, in search j
R of country fare and country breezes, fo: j
M pie was a confirmed Invalid, Bite took
|| *°|£log aerosa tho way from Sir-. Ita.i j
mond's, and seemed to fuacy Annie from
tho first. Bhe now wrote, asking Annie
to come and live with lior as nurso and
i companion, and offering a sum which
seemed princely in Annie's eyes.
She decided at once to go, for she
longed for a glimpse of the world with
out, but she would wait until she saw
George in the evening, for his opinion
might influence her in some degree.
Ho, when he came, she hastened to im
part the news.
'•Don't go, Annie," he urged. "You
know—you must havo known for a long
time—that 1 love you dearly. I've only
waited to tell you because I had not a
suitable home to offer you as yet. But
1 m saving for that purpose overy day,
dear, uud wheu wo can seo each other BO
often it will not bo so hard to wait a lit
tle longer. Stay, and promiao mo you
will be my wife just as soon as I can pro
vide 'or you properly."
"Go- rgo," she said, "you know I love
you, but I am too much of a coward to
bind myselt to bo a Lifelong slave, like
my sister, B'trah, for instance."
"Sarah was sickly before she was mar
ried, 1 believe," he answered quietly,
thongn ills mrUHior betrayed some sur
prise at such outburst* from- the
usually mikl Annie.
"Yes," reluctantly.
"And peevish and fretful, too."
"Yes, responded Annie, slowly.
"You are neither."
Annie burst into tears.
"Slie was unhappy," she said, "and eo
am 1."
George was puzzled. Ho used his
powers of persuasion to the utmost, but
sue was inexorable. She would not con
sent to an engagement and sho would
'go to the city as companion to Mrs.
Reade. Bo vexed with her obstinacy,
1 but thinking it best to give her her uwu
way, since he could not well do other
wise, he bade hor good by.
Annie sobbed herself to sleep that
night, nnd two days after—for there was
slight preparation needed—she set out
for the city.
For a time sho was delighted with her
situation. Mrs. Iteade was very cap
tivating in manner, and treated Annie
uiinost like a sister. Annio had intended
t.o save her earnings, but, under Mrs.
Beado's advice, she found ample oppor
tunity to invest thorn in tho purchase of
better clothing than she had over worn
before.
By-aml-by hor situation became less
pleasant. Mrs. Reado was capricious,
and sometimes hard to pleaso. Another
truth dawned upon Annie's mind about
this time. Hor mistress was a neglected,
unloved wife, and, though sho hail every
ttiiug that wealth could procure, sho was
very unhappy, as much as oilhor Buo or
Bnrah.
Bpring came on, and as the weather
giew warmer, Annio began to have fear
ful headaclios, a new thing for hor. She
grow tired of tho senseless-looking rows
of brick and brown stone and longed for
the pleasant woods near homo, with their
fresh green loaves and early flowers,
i- ho felt if she could only have Jane to
scold her it would do her good. She grew
homesick for the very home she had de
spised. Mrs. Reade complained tiiu t she
was glowing heedloss and Annio know it
was very true.
One morning she woke, feeling too ill
to rise. Mrs. Reed's bell rang re
peatedly, but Annie was too ill to heed it
and lay dimly conscious of what wa
ll. ixlg aioluld . . :! ah...
wore holding a consultation over hor ami
afterward that they were removing her
to some other place, slielwas far too sick
to care where.
After a fow days of burning fover lior
senses returned, and she found herselt
in the hospital, with everything new and
strango about hor. As aoon as stie was
aide to sit up she procured writing
materials of her nur-e, and wrote home.
By this time Mrs. Reade had lotiseil
horself to write also, and, thoroughly
alarmed, Jane set out to find hor, accom
panied by George Hastings.
George met Annie quietly, but Jane
scolded and cried ovor her until Annie
felt tiiat her sister really cored uioro for
her than sho had ever known. They
took her home a shadow oi' her former
self, but more contented in mind than
she had been in years before.
But it was not until she was quite as
well as ever and had fallen readily into
the old routine of daily labor, that George
spoke again of love. Ho came to see her
the same as before, and brought her
trifles in the way of flowers and hooks;
and one evening, when they were sitting
in tho dusk and doom of the twilight,
with the cloudy November spires frown
ing without, George said :
"Doyou think, Annie, you could marry
a poor man, after all?"
"Oh, George V" doprecatingly.
"And do you think you are brave
enough to bind yourself to be a lifelong
slave like your sister Sarah?"
"Not to a husband I did not love, and
who cared but little for me. That would
be a fearful bondage to mo or any other
woman."
"But I love you and you love me.
Don't you think that makes a great dif
ference?"
"All the difference in the world,
Geo-ge."
"Then you do not think you could
make up jour mind to marry me?"
"I think I could If you asked me."
"Oh!" with a laugn, and that was all.
Not a word was spokon by either lor
some time, but he took her hand and
drew her silently to his side. At last he
spoke:
"Confess. Annie," he said, "that you
are disappointed. I am not the hero you
expected in a husband, am I?"
"No," she answered; "but you are a
true, coble-hearted man, and that, is
better. 1 forgot, In all my senseless day
dreams and plans for the future, that 1
was only a woman and a very foolish one
at that. You have excellent judgment
and sense, but you are just my age, and,
not so wise, lam afraid of you. I kuow
you have faults, but so have I; aua if
you will have patience with mine, I can
bear yours without a word."
"We ehall have trials, too, dear," he
said, "but we shall help each other en
dure them, and that wilt make them so
much taster to bear. The lesson of the
past year has not harmed you, Annie;
you will be more contented all your life
for it."
So at Christmas-time they were mar
ried. The finery in whloh Annie had in
dulged the winter before, with slight re
modeling, served a good purpose as a
wedding trousseau. Her father came
forward with the spoons and Ihe feather
beds, and Jane exerted herself wonder
fully. saying it was a pleasure to help
Annie, i.i.e was so g.aelul for every
thing.
