PAMELAS FACULTY, 2
They talked over Deacon Semple s p
death in the sewing-circle. It was very
Bad that he should have died. So suddenly,
too, of pneumonia, poor man. 3,
But Mrs. Calkins, at whose house the B
society met that week, couldn't help m
thinking that it would have been a very
dull meeting if he had not; for since u,
even body had found out ]ust why Luke jv
Judkins had been obliged to mortgage ^
his farm, and Dr. Saunders' marriage
with his housekeeper had become an
old story, there was abeolutely nothing C(
to talk about It was also providen- Dj
tial that he should die just after plant- *j(
icg was i-ver, and before haying had w

and was always shiftless. Being a deacon,
of course be was prepared, snd
there was really Dot moch to mourn for, tj.
except that now Pamely would hav'b to ^
take care oi herself, and Pamely had p
no faculty. Ruthy Ann could go on ja
keeping school, us she had done for ^
years, and the twins, luckily, were mar- '
ried. Pamely was the only one that -0
was left unprovided for. Pamely was
one of the kind that always was unpro- *
Tided for?the kind that had no Acuity.The
farm was all iun out; and if it ^
were not, Pamley wouldn't know any
better than to expect to raise pump- ^
kins on a pea Tine. If she was a
fanner's daughter she didn't know but
what potatoes came up of their own accord,
and weeded and due themselves. ^
Mrs. Ichabod Badger (generally known .
as Mis' Ichabod) thought it probable
tiat the even supposed that they j
washel themselves and jumped into
the dina<r pot. And it was evident a(
that she s?it a sight more by posies than
she did by garden 6ass. She wjys alwavn
littering np the hoase with weeds and ^
8'uff out of ihe woo^s, and she drew

draw n;? candles or making soap Sue lt
took after the Spencers?her mother's ,
folks. One of them wasn't half witted .'
and wrote verse?, and another painted
pictures aDd never amounted to any
thing. And Pamely was headstrong; .
ahe never Beemed to pay any attention '
to gocd advice Sbo was always as a
pleasant and amiable abont it as could
be, but ehe would go right on in her ,
own way. Thii was like her father; .
wheiLthey tried to dismiss the Rev. Mr. J
Caldwell for unsoundness of doctrine,
Deac .n Semple he wouldn't agree to it. ,
He didn't get excited and call hard
names as the others did, but though they .
argued and argued he wouldn't be convinced.
Mis' Ichabod was of the opinion that a
committee of ladies onpht to call upon
Pamely and advise her to go and keep ^
house for old Hiram Hutchinson. He *'?
- . f\C
had a large farm and two invalid
daughters, ore bfflicted with spinal dis- ,,
ease and the other with epilepsy; so
'twas a hard place, and of coarse she
would keep everything at sixes and ?j
evens, not having any faculty; but old j**
Hiram was williug to take her, becaflee ??
he was very close. and she wouldn't ex- *7
ptctmuch. And Mis' Hosea Blodgett
added that as Hiram was a widower .
nobody knew what might happen. He ,c
was over fifty and hard to get along J
with, bnt then Pamely couldn't be far
from twenty-five, and ought to be willine
to make a sacrifice for the sake of a
home. Ben Seaverns, who used to keep
company with her, had gone off to sea
five years before, and had probably got
drowned, to say nothing of being a m
shiftless good-for-nothing, and surely Gz
there was no man in Brirablecom who
wanted to marry a girl without faculty. ^

There was no doubt about the zeal of ^
the committee. Bright and early the *D
next morning?so earlv, in fact, that ce
the breakfa-t dishes were not washed in ot
any town except B. imblecom?the three at
ladies presented themselves at the P1
front door cf Deacon SempVa late cr
residence; front doors were reserved for 8E
state occasions in Brimblecom. The
committee, after coxisaltation, had de- 8?!
cided that this wai an occasion which er
rendered the aso of the front door ap- b<
propriate. m
K?turah Grant, who had been maidof-all-work
in Deacon Semple's family m
for half a centnry, hobbled to the door, c<
and admitted them to the sit;ing-room; hi
and there was Pamela, with a (treat
bunch of weeds?buttercups and clover w
and white weeds?paintinur, actually
painting, at that time in the morning! ai
She wore a high-necked aDd long ei

Tbe committee with one consent B
heaved a deep sigh. w
"Seem' 8cripter commands ns to be m

aw thonght we'd come and tell you m
that old Hiram Hntchinson wants a D<

bad been chosen cbief spokesman in T
jaw nt thfl "flow of language" for
which she was renowned. I U

W?J. I ?.
ine committeo looked at each other.
Tbeir mission seemed a somewhat diffi- th
oult one to perform. Was Pamely so
innocent as she looked? Mis' Ichabod
bad a dreadful suspicion that the was N
deep, and she resolved not to be P1
daunted.
14 We thought you might like the hi
place yourself, eeein' you was left so 8<
kind of dependent," she said
" I ? Oh, dear ! I haven't the least
bit of faculty, tou know and Pamela H
laughed merrily. ki
" Them that hain't aoy faculty hare D
got to try to do something if they
don't want to bo objicks of charity," w
said Mis' Ichabod.
441 don't think Brimblecom will ever 81
have to take care of me. If it does I ^
am such a little thing that it won't cost
much."
There was a suspicion of a flush on oi
Pamelas oheek and a tense look about A
her mouth that the committeo did not bi
obaerve. They only saw her laugh, and y<
they arose in high dudgeon.
"Ihope the time won't come when m
yon won't find it a laughing matter," sa
said Mis1 Hosea Blodgett, who was ti
determined not to come away without
acinar anything; that would be so n(
humiliating to tell of. a
u Ob, I hope' not," said Pamela, Si
sweetly. Ai
4* That was the very worst thing about
Deacon 8emple?you never could make m
him mad," said Miss Nancy Perkins, as M
she opened the gate. Ana though the th
other members of tne committee th
wouldn't acknowledge it, Pamela's to
resemblanca to her father in that
respeot was the thing that they had at
found most aggravating in their inter- lc
view with her. "l
Before they reached their homes they tl
repented that they had not said more, d<
but there was something in Pamelas p<
manner that made it seem an impossi- at
bility. The committee c .uld not ex- y..
plain it clearly. Pamela had been quit*
pleasant and polifc-, but they didn't care hi
to go again. However, they quite bh
agreed that the matter ought not to rest fa
there, and they were willing?avenanxio?s?to
goj?nd confer with Mr. Btock-1 di
idge, the minister, upon the subjeot
jrhaps he could be induoed to advise
>r. 8be would not dare to be bo high
id miehty with the minister.
The Rev. Mr. Stockbridge was a grave
id dignified man of nearly forty, who,
hen he had first come to Brimblecom.
n years before, had had the caps of
ilf the young ladies of his parish perstentlv
set at him. Thev had now, if
ley had not wholly abandoned the
ip-setting, learned to "draw it mildly,
ist it were all in vain," for the minister
id never shown the slightest signs cf
eiug caught. He seemed somewhat
nbarrassed when the committee visited
im and made known their errand. As
[is' Hosea Blodgett said, in describing
le interview to her friends:
" He kinder turned red, and then he
inder turned white, and he looked all
ays for Sunday, jest as if we'd said
)mething that wa'n't proper. And
htn hesaid anything, which wa'n't for
j much as a minute, he up and said
ist as good as to eay that he didn't
insider 'twas any of his business,
ut 311b' Ichabod she jest talked and
rgerfied beautiful about how the town
ould have to take care of her, and
pin' her father was a deacon the
lurch ought to do its duty, advisin'
id laborin' with her if she was
eadstroDg and sec up, and she coninced
him?with a few words that I
it fall as 'twas given me to speak?
ad he said h'd go and talk with
amely accordin' to the best wisdooo
id jndgment that was given him.
7hen she sees him a-comin' Bbe'll
owse her peak, for there's nobody in
rimblecom that ain't afraid of the
linister."
Within a week the committee waited
pon the minister to hear the result of
is advice to Pamela. It was very bard
> find him at home; they tried four
mes before they succeeded. If he had
een anybody but the minister they
>ald Dot have avoided tbe paintni susicion
that he slipped out of the back
oor when he saw them coming. And
hen at last they did find him at home
is report was not altogether satiactorv.
" Miss Semple did not care to accept
le position of housekeeper to Mr.
iram Hutchinson," he eaid> as if
amela were the greatest lady in the
nd, and could pick and choose posions.
But then he was a minister, and
inisters couldn't be expected to talk
ist like common people.
"What is she a goin' to do, then?*'
?manded Mis' Ichabod, severely. " I
jo't know of any other chance for
?r."
" I? I offered her a position, but she
. 3 ii-.t -i-_ t# ?: a *uA
scunea mm uisu, huiu mo uiiuistci.
The committee looked thunderrack.
" I do hope it wa'n'c to keep school,"
iid Mis' Hosea Blodgett, recovering
srself suddenly, ' for she hain't a
iteof faculty, everybody knows. Why,
asked her once if she understood
athematics, and she said she could do
Idition if you gave her time. My An
9iia understands mathematics, and bedes
beautiful learnin' she's got a real
.cnltv for keepin* school."
" It was not a position as schoolsacher,"
said the minister.
" She could kind of get along with
6use work, though she hain't any
caltv. I hope the folks ain't very
irtickerler," said Mis' Ichabod.
" A* she declined the position it
aes not seem to matter whether they
e or not," said the minister.
If Mis' Iclibbad had not stood very
uch In awe of the minister he would
ive then and there received a piece of
2r mind," as the afterward declared;
for if there was anything that proved
her beyond "endurance it was a
08emouthed person." Bat as he was
10 minister there was nothing to do
it to tal-e leave of him with a coldjss
and dignity which should give
ime token of their displeasure.
As if he couldn't tell ttem just as
ell as not who wanted to hire Pamely
i do housework! But there was one
>mlort? the committee knew there
as nothing going on in Brimblecom
tat they couldn't lind out.
And ju6t after she bad expressed that
rinion Mis' Icbabod was so overcome
j some sudden thought that she fairly
isped and leaned for support against
ie town pnmp, which providentially
ood in her way.
" I heard that Joanna Leach wanted
i go home because her sister's twins
id the measles. The minister wanted
imelv to keep house for him!' she
isped.
" Well, Mis' Ichabod, if you hain't
>t an understands' worth bavin'! And
ough I never breathed it to a mortal
i ^ 4\..i lY. ^
jiore, i ve nau my suspicious mai me
inister wa'n't all lie'd ought to be,"
[claimed Mis' Hosea Blodgett.
"I never knew a man to have one
bite eyebrow for nothing," said Miss
iincy Perkins, darkly.
Before night the rep rt had spread
I over Brimblecom that the minister
id asked Pamela Semple to keep house
r him. Mr. Stockbridge was certainly
ie last person to be suspected of an
^propriety, but appearances were delitful.
He surely must know that he
igat to have a housekeeper who was
least fifty, and it was eminently
oper that she should be toothless,
oss-eyed and -disfigured with the i
aallpox, a? Joanna Leach was. If
uaela were an especially capable per>n,
the case would be somewhat ditlerlt;
but to be willing to bear with a
jusekeeper who had no faculty he
u>t have a personal regard for her.
The oldest inhabitant could not re.ember
Buch an exoitemenfcin Brimble>m.
The Rev. Mr. Caldwell's hernsy
id been tame, and the report that Dr.
lunders had another wire living only
tildly exhilarating in comparison.
But several weeks went by before
iy sound of it reached the minister's
irs. Happily for him Brimblecom
id a wholesome fear of the minister,
ut at length, owing mainly to the
Torts of Mis' Ichahod, Mis' Hosea
lodgett and Miss Nancy Perkins, it
as decided that at the next church
eeting one of the deacons should
lestion the minister concerning the
atter. Such a crying scandal must
3 longer remain uninvestigated.
It was a great day for Brimblecom.
here had not been snch an attendance
i a church meeting tince the Rev. Mr.
aid well's trial for heresy Mrs. D;:am
Simmons said it seemed so ruuc'j
be co mty conference that she got up
i 4 o'clock and went to baking a
eat batch of pumpkin pits before she
imembered what she was about.
If the minister had any idea of what
all meant he gave no bi?n, and when
eacon Simmons, with awful solemnity,
id with a long preamble conceruin*
te duty of a minister to set an example
i his flcck in righte<usnes8, asked him
he thought it seemly and beoomiu*
ask thedanohter of their late Deacon
phraim Sample to become liis house*per,
the minister quietly replied
iat he had never done so.
Tbe committee looked at each other,
id everybody else looked at them. Miss
ancy Perkins felt, as Bhe afterward ex essed
it, as if she " would like to go
trough to Chinv;" but Mis' Iehabod
jre up nobly, aud Mis' Hosea Bloditt
relied upon Mis' Iehabod.
" Didn't you tell a committee constin'
of Mis' Iehabod Badger, Mis'
osea Blodgett and Miss Nancy Perins
that you had done so?'' pursued
eacon Simmons.
" I did not," said the minister, with
i ait of bland and innocent surprise.
This was too much for Mis' Iehabod.
be arose, and shaking her foreager
impressively at tbe minister,
sman led :
"Didn't you tell us that you had
Tered her a situation to keep house ?
nd who in this livin' world could it
3 that wanted a housekeeper but
)U?''
"You misunderstood]fme." said the
inister, with great politeness. 411
id I had offered Miss Semple a posiod.
and it was not to teach school."
Mis' Iehabod sat down, because
)thing occurred to her to say, and for
time there was silence. Then Deacon
mmons arose and said, like a second
dam:
" I hope you won't take no offense,
ir think nothing' more about this,
r. Stockbridge. It's somethin' that
e women-folks have got up amongst
emsel^es, and I guess it don't amount
but dretful little."
"To relieve any further curiosity
>oufc the matter," said the minister,
oking straight at the committee,
perhaps I had bettor explain?aliongh
it is an explanation which a man
>esn't often muks in public?'hat the
>sition which I offered Miss Semple
id which sho declined was ttiafc of
ur minister's wife."
Mis' Iehabod always averred that if it
idn'fc been for a bit of cinnamon which
ie bad on her tongue she should have
inted then.
The church meetincr broke up sudsnly,
the sentiment which Mis' Hoeea
Blodgett expressed being apparently
the sentiment of all?that she should
have died in five minutes if eheoonldn't
have got out where she could talk it
over. j<
Don't talk to mo about that girl I"
exclaimed Miss Nancy Perkins, with p
deep feeling. "There never was a man
that it took so much faculty to get as j
the minister."
" And she wouldn't have him? De- a
pend upon it, there's more in that than
meets the eye. She's deep," said Mis'
Tchabod. ,
"What do you think Mis' Moses 11
Gregpr whispered to me in meetin'?" '
said Mis' Hosea Blodgett. " She says h
Pamely sells the pictnreB she paints for
money?sends 'em off to the city. And c
besides supporting her and Ketury t
she's a-goin' to pay off the mortgage on f
the farm." F
" I hain't never been sorry that I was ?
brought up tD work," said Mis' Ichabod.
"Vanity and folly may prosper for a c
reason, but we all know where the I
downward path ends. If Pamely f?em- f,
pie hadn't been 6ent away to that acad- e
emy she might have been as lady-like, a
weil-behaved as any girl in Brimblecom n
?if she hadn't any faculty.' r
And with these remarks Mis' Ichabod
withdrew herself from the council. r
On the even tenor of her way went *
Pamela, working early and late with ^
her brnsh, and before long a report c
fouDd itH way tj "Brimblecom that she c
was pnnKirlfired a remarkable artist, and ?
some things were evident to Brimble- j
com senses; the mortgage was being .
paid off, the crops were in a prosperous
condition, and old Keturah was renew- ^
ing her youth.
Brimblecom bepan to be proud of ^
Pamela. It almost forgot that it had
over been afraid Bhe would become a .
pauper. Nobody eeemed to remember "
tbat she had been thought to have no
faculty?nobody but the committee.
One or two persons were actually .
heard to say that it was a pity she
wouldn't marry Mr. Stock bridge, but
perhaps she had a right to look higher _
than the rest of the Brimblecom girls.
Mis' Ichabod always shook her head
with mysterious meaning when Pamela
was mentioned, and said, grimly,
" Them that lives the longest will see
most."
One day triumph came to Mis' _
Ichabod.
The committee were in the postoffice t
?Mis' Tchabocl and Mis' Mosea j5ioaeett
were often so kind as to assist Miss
Nancy Perkins in assorting the ma>l? 0
when in camo Mrs. Deacon Simmons,
who was fat and scant of breath, and ia c
such n state of excitement tbat tho o
committee had, all and severally, to
fan her vigorously before her news c

' Don't you think, as true as I'm a j]
livin' woman and not a corpse, as 1
might expect to bp, hfarin' such up- .
settin' things and hurryin' so?" '
"Go on, ro on ! don't loso your '
breath P cried the committpe, in choruH,
fanning vigorously, " We'll never
breathe it to a soul." 8
"Oh, it's all over Brimblecom. That *

by the nets spread out to dry, o
and it is impossible to go far in It
any direction without seoing a black g
coil tluggishly issuing from a loft into fl
a cart, which receives it on the street ci
below, this also being a net. Within a
the loft are many tarry-fingered Pene- ti

new ones, and men in canvas attire who
are soaking their nets in oil and pitch a
to make them stronger. The nets are Cl
hung over fenoes, hauled up on polos, t<

there is an unincumbered and conve- a]

" Hello, my boy! hello, old shipmetl
how many fish?" cries the latter, and a
the person addressed shrugs his shoalrtarR
and looks at the skv as he eives
the inquirer the particulars of his last

right breast, and . from the RD
[ continued discharge was rather y,
and in feeble health,and was spendsome
time with his uncle, Major J

state of health, and partly, as I

to the prospective marriage of his ne
ir Snsie to Allen Parmer, whom she (1y
rward married, Jessie determined lia
ommit snicide, and impelled by his
etnons nature lost no time in his 1
rts at executing his desire. For
purpose he rode to town and proid
sixteen grains of morphine, which Jo
ook at one dose immediately on his
ral at his uncle's, which was late in Tc
afternoon of a January day. When
elt the drug beginning to produoe mi
'ffects and he deemed it too late for p.a

pinm poison. There had been some i
ree of tolerance to the drng acquired iti
k resort to it for some weekB previ- a|'

srings incident to the wound above u
rred to. I found willing and very gi
ible assistants in Frank and Sosie, iu
se attentions and ministrations were
smitting thronghout the night. In m
ition to the usual remedies it was "j
eratively necessary to combat the =
sotic influence of the poison by all 1
cea of mental and physioal ex- J
ment that could be brought

erfoi exoitement he evinced and the 11
mpt response he continued to make D)
n Frank woald whisper to him cerwarning
words as if certain per- gi
} very obnoxious to him were M
