Conscience is one of the worst lodgers to have in your house; when he gets quarrelsome there is no abiding with him; ill at lying down and equally troublesome at rising up* A guilty conscience is one of the curses of the world; it puts out the sun and tak awaj the guilty consscience cast a anxious exhalation through the air, removes the beaty from the landscape, the glory from the flowing river, the majesty from the rollig floods.

"(Jirlsare fools! Yts, they are. I know, because I was one myself ouce. "HowM I get over it? I'll tell you. Au old woman brought me to my se Lines and it's because I was so terribly grateful to her afterward thai I dare to meddle with other folks' affairs sometimes now 1 ain an old woman myself. "You see, I was in love with a young fellow, but I wasn't quite so much in love with him as f thoght I was. That's all that saved me. You know, when a girl is really in love she just can't reason. I wasn't quite so far gone as that. Iff had been, Grandma Stetson's talk wouldn't hava done me no good. "Henry?that was the young man's name?bad been keeping company with me for sometime, and liejwas pleasant and bright, and I liked him first rate, and finally he made me think we was awful much in love with each other. So we engaged, and we kinder pla nned to be marred the next September?that was in March. "Now Henry was a good enough fellow. He was a member of the church and he didn't have no bad habits, and he'd had a good education, for theni days. So far he was all right, bn t? well, he was one of these folks that's always out of a job. He'd got plenty of ability, he could turn his hand to most anything but he wa'n't over and fond of his work, and he'd never stick to auytding but a little while. His folk supported him, and he let'em, even though they wa'n't really able to do it. He tried canvassing, but lie didn't like that. He did bookkeeping, but he was careless and made mistakes, and lost his job- He got a chance to work in the postollice, but that didn't just suit him. The doctor wauted a driver and Henry got the place, hut be had to harness the horse and take care of him, and he didn't like that, so he give it up. And that's tbe way it weut. He got lots of good places, but in every one of'em h'd either not do bis workgood enough, or he'd get sick of it or not like it. "All this fretted me terribly, for I was real ambitious. I wa'n't but 19 then, and I was smart and capable, if I do say it. There wa'n't so many ways for a girl to earn money in them days as there is now, but I managed to find plenty to do, even if the pay wapretty small sometimes. Mother had a big family, and so I helped her with the work more tnan enough to pay my boajd. There was a strawshop at the village, and they put out the work, so I sewed hats and iu thebusy season i earned considerable. Then when there wa'n't any of that to do, I'd sew for the neighbor*, and a few times I had a chance to take care of sick folks "Henry used to come iu and sit down and watch me working, and h'd be so pleasant and talk so entertaining that I liked real well to have him there ' "I was saving every eeut I could toward getting married. Henry was supposed to be doing the same, but he wa'n't earning anything, most of the time, and he dressed pretty well? a good deal better than j did. "Well, things was goingou way when Grandma Stetson was look sick and I weut to take care of her. She was sick quite a while, and I stayed with her till she got all well. She knew all about my being engaged to Henry, and the day before 1 was going home she begun "to talk with me about my getting married. She'd asked me a good deal about Henry, and she knew him pretty well, too. "Well,"shesays, 'Is'poseyou expect Kn roui honnv vnn sire married. w uwriv ? J You are a good worker , Aseuath, and you are strong and healthy, so maybe you will be happy I'd kinder like to talk over plans with you. Maybe I can help you about how to manage.' "She waited a minute, and then she says,'How do you intend to support your husbaud ?' and she looked at me with her sharp, bright eyes. "I couldn't think of a thing to say. "What!' she cried; do you mean to say you haven't thought anything about it? Of cours ^f you was going to marry a man that could support you it will be different. You wouldn't have nothing to worry 'bout. You'd have your housework and cooking and sewing to 'tend to, and that would keep you busy, if you did it as it ought to be done.' But seeing as you are going to marry some one that won't support you It makes it harder. Yo'll have to do your housework and support him, too. Now vou want to think how's the best way to do it. You'll probably have to live in the Aillage?there's more chances to get work there?unless you keep 011 with making hats and bunuits. Now, if you live in the viilageyou can get different things to do How'd you like to take in washing? Maybe Henry 'd be willing to go and get 'em and carry 'em home, and that would be a lot oi help. Or yon could go out scrubbing. Lois of rich folks have a woman come in once a week to wash floors and such. You might do that. Maybe Henry'd stay at home and keep the fires going while you was gone. And then Henry'll be hanging arouud the store and post office, and he'll find lots of chances for jou to get work to do. Or you might tuke boarders . You are a first rate cook ,and there's good money in boarders, and lots of work, too. Henry's real agreeable, and he'd make it pleasant for 'enj. 'Well, I didn't know what to say. I felt sort of dazed. I'd kinder had an idea tiiat when we was married Henry'd spunk up and get a job and keep it. I'd never once thought that I'd have to work as hard after I was married and maybe harder, than I was working before "I didn't say a word to Grandma, but I tell you I did a lot thinking, and tlKll tllgllL 1 UKlII L SICCJi Uil 1/ jnctiuuo little. I come to my senses fast after I got started. "When I went home my mind was made up. T felt terribly "to think of giving Henry up, but I couldn't bear the idea of the kind of life Grandma had mapped out for me, either. So I'<' studied up a way out of it. I'd have a j talk with Henry and tell him that when he got steady work aud was able to support me I'd marry him and not before. It kinder r'iled me to think how hard I'd worked, and how he'd just set round aud let me?ami hadn't lifted a finger himself. I reasoned that if he would doas as 1 wanted him to, it would make a man of him and would be a good deal better for him than it would be to have me support aim. "1 hadn't told auybody when T was coming home, but that night nenry u heard I'd got back aud he come to see me. "I dreaded to have my talk with him, but I knew I'd got to, bo I begun soon :ifter he got there. "I'd thought, perhaps' it would make him feel bud, so I put it to him as delicate as I; knew how, but I'd never thought of his getting mad. He walked around the room wrathful. Finally he come and stood in front of me. "We planned to be inarrid in Soptemper,'he says, real stern. 'And'? i he went on, slow and impessive 'we'll be married in September or not at all. Well, I was pretty high spirit ed when I was young, and what he I said, and the way he said it, made my flie Peoples ABBE VII OFFICERS. 8. G. THOMSON, President. G. A. XEUFFER, Vice-President. It. E.
