si lenoe sottled on the old farmhouse,
and Gilbert actually fell Into a light
from which Mrs. Westford'b so It
call art>U*ed him. Half asleep, he
made his way to the trap-door, and
was helped up. Ernestine in cloak
and hat stood waiting.
"Mother thinks it best that you
should he back in safety before day
break," sho said simply. " I can drivo
you ovor very soon.
"I hate to lot then-go, dear," her
mother said anxiously.
" It is only for an nour mothor," as
sured tho girl; " and wo can hardly
trust Harry. Ho Is only a boy, and so
Impetuous and blttor."
Mrs. Wostford sighod. "It seems
to bo a duty?and suroly our Father
will not lot theo suffor lor doing thy
duty. Well, go. My prayers shall go
with thee. Hut be careful ohlld."
Tho light wagon and bay pony stood
at the door. The prisonor was holpod
into tho back seat, and Earnostlno
sprang in before. The big watch dog
followed at hor call and ouYled up
under hor seat, and Gilbert felt that
howovor kindly those women might
feel, thoy woro not disposed to run any
usolcss risks.
"Good-bye, mothor. Don't fret,"
was Harnestluo's partlug word, and
Mrs. Westford's oarncst "May God
protect theo 1" showed hor uneasiness.
Yet sho added a kindly word to tho
prisonor, " And may ho bring out the
truth ! I hope wo shall sco thee freo
before all tho world right speedily."
Then they drove into tho darkness.
Earnostino spoko little, hor heart beat
too fast. Sho half apologized for tak

" Tho roads would bo ho lonely, com

accoptcd. Could ho resent hor pru

life? Hut bo could not help being
intensely thankful that the dog had
been asleep in tho barn when ho ap
proached.
Their trip was but half done when
lauterns gleamed ahead, ami wheels
and voiecs were heard approaching.
" Tho mob," was his lirst thought, and
Barnestino whispered hurridoly.
"DOAvn under your seat till they pass!"
Then with a sudden joyful change in
tone, and munnor, "Oh, it is tho
sheriff. Thank bcavon."
The sheriff it was, looking anxiously
for his charge, but with little hope of
ovor seeing him again alive. Ernes
tine turned quickly.
' "Your wrists, please," and tho
manacles fell oil'. There ! You need
not tell that part unless you wish. It
wus only?but you understand. Mother

And then tho sheriff was holding
them, and as much surprised as de
lighted to lind his prisoner in such

and with a kindly word of farewell
Ernestine hastened back ito her anx

At the new trial Gilbert Ilazeiton
had no dlflioulty in proving his own

and congratulations ho received, none
gave him more pleasure than those of
Mrs. Westford and her daughter.

MUH. WHITCOMB'S liCSSON.
It was a gloomy day in February, and
the day was suited to my mood, for
goodness knows I felt cross and dismal
enough, as 1 washed and dressed my
three Oldest ohlldon for school. Kvery
tliing went wrong. Buttons would not
stay buttoned, strings tied into kinds,
hair snarled, and when I got soap into
Bob's eyes he cried, and 1 gave him an
angry slap. That did not help matters
and when at last the children were
i ready, the rosy lips thoyolYorod for my
i listless good-bye kiss had a doleful
droop, and their little faces were as
dejected as my own, for they under
stood that something was wrong with
mamma.
When they were gone 1 wont about
i my morning work in a careless, half
! hearted way. thinking bitterly of my
' life and wished I were doad. Twelve
! years before 1 had boon a pretty girl as
j girls go, a good musician, had painted
I some pictures that had been well spoken
of, had written several stories that had
appeared in the second-rat e papers, ami
considered myself, and was spoken of
by friends as a remarkable girl.
When I engaged myself to Boger
Whitcomb, a bright young fellow, true
as steel, but without u dollar beside
his salary, everybody told mo 1 was
I making a great mistake : but I thought
I not, I knew how good he was, ami
j loved him with all the strength of my
I girlish heart, and knew that to him
?? Noll " was1 tho only girl iu the world.
To he sure ho preferred " Home
? Sweet Home," to the "Moonlight
' Sonata," and understood little, of high
j lights or perspective, but I was sure I
! could teach him to love music and
painting as I did, und talked a grout
dual to the. other girls about the high
ambition each woman should have, to
bring the man she loved to her own
plain:, especially upon the subject of
art. Silly, conceited creature that I
was, not to see that Roger's knowledge
I of his business and of the subjects of
j the day, his sterling worth ami sound
I principles, were often times more value
! than the, rags and scraps of know lodge
1 had about art. Hut I had no mother
and my father considered mo a marvel
of talent, so no one warned me and I
went on boldly,
Tho first year I was happy, as Boger
was devoted. 1 kept r servant ami
had plenty of time to devote to my
music ami painting, and when my first
baby was horn I thought l was the hap
piest woman In the world. I lull soon
found that baby interfered with my
studies, and w hen a second, a third,
and t hen a fourth baby appeared Oil the
scene, there were days and w eeks when
I could) not lind a moment for myself.
Boger was sorry for me and worked day
and night to koop even with expenses,
and have a servant for me. 1 grew
: cross and fretful, my servants found
mo hard to gel on witlu so half the
time I was alone, or with Inoillolont
; help.
Lately things had come to a crisis.
Several muslola) people hod come to
Mayville to live, and in forming a club
had invited my husband and me to join
them. 1 had boon greatly pleased, but
when this morning 1 had spoken to
Boger, he said at once that he could not
spart! the time, and besides the evenings
that he could have he was too tired to
go anywhere.
"But I cannot go without you." I
said, angrily. " Before wo were mar
ried you could always Hud time to take
ine OUt."
'Hoger wont on oat lug h la broakfast
in his quiet way, remarking, as he
helped himself to another slice of toast,
" I did not have a wife and four chil
dren on m.\ hands then, if you will re
memher."
"I wish you hadn't them now." !
snapped. " I ought never to have mar
ried, and I wish I never had."
To my surprise my Oushaud quietly
ai'OSQ saying a-i he loft tho room :
'? I think, too, that you have made a
great mistake. The woman who loves
art more than husband and children is
not lit for wife or mother," ami he loft
tho house for the first time in our
married life without bidding mo good
bye.
Tho morning wore on, and just as I
had put tho baby to sloop I saw '? Aunt
Matth'.-' as we called tho lady who lived
noxt door, coining up tho walk t hrough
tho doop snow, and with hor little
daughter, who often took care of the
baby.
Aunt Matth) weighed nearly two
hundred pounds and rocked when sho
walked like a i-hip iu a storm, but with
in that plain body dwelt beautiful
BOUlj hpr Y0TrJ presence carried sun
Bhme to many a lonoly heart. Sharp
flighted, plain spoken, but with u It""-'
overflowing with lov#?
creature*. " ?>"' her fellow
??? went through lifo bind
ing up broken spirits and caring for
sick bodies and souls. She came in
With a cherry " good-morning," sank
IntO the old rocking-chair thatoroakod
boni .tih her weight, put the big basket
she carried down on tho floor beside
her. and Bald i
" I ran In this morning to aoe if von
could go with me to visit a family'on
the next street who are in great trou
ble. Kssio will stay with the baby,
and wo will be back in an hour, so you
will havo plenty of time to see about
dinner."
"1 don't know as I would bo of
much help to anyone to-day." I sa'd.
" for I havo boon thinking of my own
trouble,"
"Then come riglft along: nothing
Bghtons ono's burdens like helping
soino ono else. Bun nlong now and get
ready, and glvo me that precious lamb
a minute,"
Sonn- way one always Ooos as Aunt
Miittic bids, so a few moments Inter wo
were hurrying down the street. We
stopped at a tiny weather-beaten house
built without foundation, making one
think of dampness nod mold. A wav
ering line of smoke from tho rickety
chimney, and some ragged clothes
liangla? c.jKir. a !;???? iu the bit of a Bide
yard. were.the oniy signs of life.
BlltulUS ! t!ict IgU Of death WOS there,
for upon tho door hung a strip of soiled
white orapo. How pathotie It looked
as tho cold wind swept it to and fro,
tolling I he story of a little soul do*
parted, and of tho aching hearts with
in.
Aunt Mattiedid not stop to moral i/o,
but knocked at tho door, it was opened
by a tiny girt, a mass oi oiirllug yellow
hair purtlj hiding the thin fuuo, with
its big brown eyes. So poorly clad was
she It made my heart aoho, as I thought
?of my own little Hook With their warm
ilannols and furs.
Such a homo! Ihne lloors, a few
brokon ehairs, a table, an old bureau, a
bed in One corner, a tow coals sinoul
dorlng In the grate, desi lato to tho last
degree. Uesldo the boo stood a woman
fraii und sweet looking, in her hand
she hold a cup out of which with a
huoon she was feuding the wreck of a
man who lay there. A glance at tho
poor sulTorer was onough to wriug any
heart with pity. 1'ho great, dark eyes,
so like tho little daughtor's were tiuuk* j
en. hut gloaming with fever. Al- the '
woman oame to greet us. Aunt Mottle,
I her eyes IIlied with tears, hold out her I
, hand.
?* My dear Mrs. Mon i.-. I only hoard
this morning you wer ; in such deep
'? trouble, so I camoatoueo, bringing-my
friend Mrs. Whitoomb, to sou what wo
cuu do to help you. VVhy did you not
I send for tUO before ?"
: Mrs. Morris covered her face with
I her hands.
"Oh '. 1 did not know what to do : I
thought of you, but you have so many
to help. Wal tor was so sick, and then
my baby died, and I have lost all
heart."
The man sighed deeply,
"Oh ! forgive nie. Walter."sllOOI'iod,
?' for your Silke I can bear all. '
j Hut Aunt Mattio always brings com
fort, so now she >aid :
'? My dear children, let mo help you.
I have 'broughtsomethings for you and
!):?. Haymor.d has hoard ol some pleas
I ant rooms, where you will bo moved at
once. N > wonder you do not got bet
ter in tills dump place, and as soon as
you, my dour, are able, i cm got you
plenty of plain sewing, while tho doe
tor has heard ol a place iu tho country
where your husband can net a good
position) and when ho is strong again
you uuu go i horo"
Never shall I forget the look of
thank fulness that came into the race of
those poor, discouraged souls : and
while Aunt Mattio sot out tho gilts sho
had bi ought, and lixod some nourishing
broth for the sick man, I sal down ami
talked to tho little girl and her brother.
Such sweet little sou's they were ! As
1 talked to thorn I mentally made a list
of things! could spare from my own
batiies wardrobes.
Uoforo we had left, when Aunt Mat
tie had made all arrangements for the
simple funeral, und tilings they should
need atonue, Mrs. Morris turned to
mo and asked mo ii I would like to see
the baby. ' said yes, for I had been
wondering where It was laid, when to
my astonish me nt she softly opened a
.drawer of the bureau, and as I l inked
at the little form in its white frook, tho
tiny waxen hands resting so peacefully
upon iir-. breast, all tho anger and dis
content swept from my heart, und 1
could oniy look no. syiuutitlij as tho
poor mother wltl^poYou [q a.e, " Much
as i loved my baby, i can only bo thank
ful that ho is safe, tie was always frail,
laud It seemed more than I could boar
io boo him sill Vor und not to bo able to
help him."
As we walked home. Aunt Maltie
patted my arm and said in hov ? ;vw?,
kind way :
" Nolli] m i oear. thank God for
your blessings and you will have no
time to worry over 'what you cannot
have." and s? eilig my Heart was too
full for utterance she said not another
word.
lini tht\t Might I'toUl Hogor all about
my wickedness, and he comforted me
as only a man can comfort tho woman
he loves bust. Then wo had a long
talk, ana he told me I o had decided wo
should ^o to tho club, and that ho
would get me a better girl, and ho was
so good and kind it seemed to n\a . had
