There was quite a stir in our quit village when it became known the the house "over the way" had bee rented. We prided ourselves on ha 1ng quite an aristocratic little neigl borhood, and as there were only on or two rented houses, we always fe anxious about a new arrival. The new tenants were to arrive o Monday, and when we young folk gathered at our usual choir practicc the matter was fully discussed. Phil1 Ring, the rising M. D., gave as hi opinion that they would be two oh maids, with a number of birds an cats. Gertio Black, with a merr; twinkle in her roguish eyes, said "Don't you wish, Nell, it may be t rich widow with two or three hand some sons? What an addition they would be to our circle!" "I! What need I care if it were so -hadn't I Philip? Perhaps I'looked this, for they all laughed, although I had not spoken a word in reply. On Monday the furniture arrived, and toward evening a carriage con taiing two ladies. The house was speedily put in order, and in a week's time the excitement had somewhat subsided, although no one had as yet seen the now tenant. On Saturday a strange lady sat in the minister's po'v -a lady "from the crown of her head to the tips of her dainty boots." You needed only to glance at her to sec this. How beautiful she was! 1, v woman, was ready to acknowledge I at first sight. Her name was Mrs Lee, the minister's daughter inforn ed us-just the name which suite this lovely widow. About forty, should judge. I had just arrived at this conch sion as the benediction was pr( nounced, and awoke from a deliciou dream. What was this lovely your widow to me, that I should make study of her? Mamma and I called, and learn during our visit that Mrs. Lee ho sought our quiet village for change air. Wo were introduced to her aur an elderly lady, who took charge the little household, leaving her nie( to perfect quiet and rest, as pr scribed. Mrs. Leo inquired the namo of 01 physician, and was told Dr. Phil: Ring-my Philip, as they all calle hilni. Why did I wish he had not bec named. At parting, sho pressed me to ca frequently. Sho loved young folk she said; and how often did I find m; self running over during the summe that followed. A few days after my first call was surprised to see Philip open th little gate that led to the cottag( and, after ringing the doorbell, be ii stantly admitted. Later in the da he told me Mrs. Lee was very ill, nc dangerously so, but with one of h( old attacks. "Is she not lovely?" I asked. "More than lovely," ho answere "She has engaged me professional during her stay in the village" Need I tell you wvhat followe'd Philip's love for this beautiful wot an ten years older than himself ; of hi mad worship, his utter neglect of o friends? From this time ho was h constant companion in drives ai walks, which wore frequent. All I hopes in life seemed centered in t: new tenant; and yet I'could net blar him, for I soon learned to love hi too. I saw that p~eople wvatched, al saw they pitied me; yet I wvas stranij ly indifferent. What I felt in sect none should ever know. And so the summer passed, and Sc tember approached. She would lea us in November. What had the su mer brought to me? A nameless pa -a joy and sorrow blended. Tonight, however, I had promised take tea at the cottage. During tl evening she played, and we sang a ft duets. What a rich, clear voice s] had; how well our voices blended-il own being a fine contralto. "~Nowv for a cozy chat," she said, r ing from the piano. She told me the two lovely boys laid away in t1 churchyard, or her beloved husban loved so dearly, mourned so deep] laid to rest by their side five yea age, of the disease wvhich~ might any moment call her to join them the spiritland, of the happy summ just passed, which my friendship hi gladdened. I felt at this moment wvould have been willing to make am sacrifice to have kept her with u Philip came in during the evening. a half past ten I arose to say got night. Sho followed us to the door. Tur ing impulsively, I threw my arn around her, and kissed her. I hi: niever dono so before. What promf ed me to do so now? She return( my embrace, exclaiming wvarmly: "God bless you, darling!" Turning abruptly to Philip, si said: "Take good care of Nellie; she a treasure. Good night!" I was surprised next morning by a early visit from Philip. lie told rr that Mrs. Leo was dead; hohad bee sent for towvard morning, to find he dying. We stood together, and gazed c the beloved dead-lovelier even I death than in life. A perfect whil full-blown rose nestled in her boson My own floral gift I placed within hc perfect hand. On her dressing table lay a note d rected to me; wvhen opened it contail ed a draft for $5,000, with her bet love. They laid her to rest by th side of her loved ones, and long bi fore the' first of November the cottag was without a tenant. were 80 muf~embes added0( to thi Baptist and Methodist churche: Evangelist Yarboro is one6 c the most fearless preachers w have over heard.
