« W W 1MB SIHii/' I t was a strange, idle,happy-life tha t

Robin Arnoldjed during that summer, wofluV having just reebvered from a dangerous illness, he obeyed t h e doc-tot 's orders and went to board with Farmer Forrest at Mountain Top.

He had. been a gay young bachelor, spending his money in pleasures of ail sorts, Hying the life of a r i eh e lubman in a great City, Now all this suddenly stopped;short. He rose at six, was in bed at nine, ate his dinner at noontide and had an oldrfashioned " t e a " a t six iu the evening. .

Perhaps h e would have wearied of it very soon but tor the -bright eyes and frank refreshing face of Edi th Forrest, the farmer's grand-daughter.

She was a revelation to him after his •experience of society girls and of wo­men who were holding fastto the outer edge of society, by dint of money and a certain sort of bekuty that depends on touching up, This girl-was as pure as a lily, sweet as a rosebud, and lovely as a violet.

H e walked in the old woodswi thher , he sailed upon the lake, "he went t o church andsha redhe rhymn*0Gk ,and forgot that tbe sernaori wa;? dull and tha music poor in looking at her sweet face and listening to her pretty voice.

H e fell in love with her in that quiet companionship, and.he told her so.

But the prsaumptive heir of 'rich old Aru'old,' as men called h i s uiiele, was npt to be allowed: to escape the tolls of the city belles so easily.

One of the birds of the a**, who carry news about, bore' t he news that Robih.

•'*• -Belle, my dear,, yoiing 'Arhold has, been very much led away by that little cauntry.'dowdy. , - , • ;- . . .

f I suppose she looks pretty amongst the people here , ' sa id Belle. ' I t .seems quite providential tha t we eame. W e can diyerfc, h im a.l i t t le . I t would be terrible for Arnold t o thrQW himself away a t the beginning of. his career, j th ink Miss . Hope—Colonel Hope's daughter—would suit h im so well , '

The mother laughed as she bung her frizette on the standard of the looking-glass and tied on her nightcap.

! How miserable 1 should have been if I had had a stupid daughter, Belle V. .she said, ' I suppose I ought to read a prayer. But I ' m so sleepy*'

" Against women like these how could youiig Arnold defend himself ? H e struggled a little, but before long he .yielded and saw little of his rustic love, except a t meal time, while every walk­ing liour was spent in Belle's society.

Poor Edith „ Was rudely, awakened from a pretty, dream,.J)u't she bore, it bravely.

: If he does not love me he shall never g.ues.s that I lo.ye h im, ' she said, proudly. So .she went about ..her tasks as usUalj and on Sundays hurried away to church by herself, and no.one held the other corner of her hymn-book: a n y m o r e . • .

' I s o r t o ' thought that city fellow liked our Edith, 'said Aunty Forrest to -Unci3 fforrest, ' I reckon she • might have made up her mind, too ; I dunno hut she might , ' • -

: Pshaw! let birds of a feather floek together,' said Uncle Forrest. ' I t ' s natural for those two dashers to like each other. There ' l l ' be a wedding soon.'-' "' - - - ••

And indeed the mind of man. is so dull at times, that young Arnold actu­ally believed that Ed i th had: b e e n u-n-kind to h im. That she had broken their friendship, forgotten' their lover's talk tha t afternoon amongst the berries in the woods*'

A n d now tha t she was sad a t heart, her face was not so attractive, her color so deep, or- hes eyes so bright ^ she faded in the presence of Belle Burleigh, who showed h i m so .plainly' t h a t she adorded him,. - . _ • _ • . . . ; ._••

A cold-hearted, girl, he thought.her, Who did not know his value; 'In.fact,

'. he had . actually.. offered, himself to Beile^ and a ring from his little finger w a a n o w o n the forefinger of her left hand, as a troth plight offering.

She had scarcely worn it three days, •when a telegram was brought to young Arnold,

"Your uncle is dying,'—it read. ' CJoche at once ! '

I n grief and excitement he read the summons, and made all the haste he could to<&hey it.

T h e old' farmer drove h im to meet the midnight train ; he waited for no bag* gage, hardly for an adieu. •

Edith-peepee> after him, through the

* Your friends are: gone, m ^ dear^ said good Aunty Forrest,;'corhing ittftt. twilight with his tea.,» Theywbuldi i ' t ' wake you up. They 'said'-'slefip W ^ ; precious ; Tsiit they left.a.note, and this box r ahd: I expect they felt r ea l ' sorry; not to speak to yo i i / '; - W h e n he was alone Aifiiold opehed' the box. The ring.he. had giyein Bel le fell intohls palm; and the note rah thus*:

' I have never disobeyed mamma in all' my life. She thinks i t best I should do this..AdieU, BBIiiiB-BBBiiBraS. •;

' A n d lor this woman ,1 have lost, Ed i th Forrest,?: he moaned, as -he fell back upon the pillow. .

H e left the farm as soon as he was , able again, and went back to the. city to- lead a new:life—an earnest life— wi th a purpose in "it. " . . .

He. worked hard for a year or two, and. every now aud then h e wrote to old Aunty Eorrest,. who answered him at length. At least her signature was. attached to the neat, Weil-written let­ters he received; < . ' '

The letters .increased in. number, sud were a great .pleasure to h i m . . They' were curioiisfletiters, .for,a plain old Woman, who only, read'her Bible, to waite; arid i t was singular for Al-noid to kiss them' so • tenderly and- wear them next his heart.

At last- h e wrote' that he was cpming down a t Christmas, and he-went.

Theshow was on, the grpuhd,but a round golden moon lit the mountains on Christmas night. I n the homely parlors of the farmhouse a fiddler and pianist set the young folks dancing, and cake, eider,, huts'and. apples Were vanished with wonderful celerity,

But out on the porch the Sound of music and laughter could be heard h u t fa in t ly . . ' • - ' • "•'-.

Edi th and Arnold stpod there,- H e had'called her out to see how bright t h e moon was, and had caught u p a. great shawl and thrown It about both their heads.

' Just one kiss before you go m, ' he said. .

She turned her lips to his. Wha t was the user of refusing? She. had already promised to give h i m her heart and hand in May-tirue.

farmer's d-stlghie;; and faille Burleigh, who had flirted rather too much, and feared that the money ber mother Was* spending fo marry he? girl well would not last for ever, listened and formed a resolution. .

'Mamma, ' ' s he said, with her head on one side and her eyes rolled ij-p in a saint-like fa&bion so often practiced before the glass • tha t it bad-Nbecome habitual-to-her—-m:amuia,Idpn't want to go to a watering place this summer. I 've heai'd of.such a lovely farmhouse, Where they take ve ry few boarders., Won ' t you go there, just tpp leaseme ? I can weai- muslin, and it will really cost nothing, comparatively. Do 'go', mamma ! '

' Have you gone crazy,, E d i t h ? ' •shrieked Mrs, Bur'teigh,a red-faced wo­man always in a quiver.."' Why, you mast want to die an old maid. There is Mr. Gardener going to Saratoga, and we'll be stzre'io meet the Enfields at Newpor t ; and pfior Mr.Guy Enfield is now a widower, and-——'.

' Yes, dear mamma, but I don' t wish to mar ry , andI think the farmhouseat Mountain Top must be nice,5 sighed Belle, more angelic than ever ; ' for young MiV Arnold is there, and he Is very particular. The doetor has ordered him away for quiet,and his.health,and all that, and there are no other board-sjrs.to sp.eak.of. Do let me rest a little, too, mamma, ' .:

1 You darling child J ' sa id Mrs. Bui -ieigh,. ' Very well thought of. I ' l l

Give me -the maa!s write a t once. 'name.' •

And so it .happened that R,obin Ar­nold, returning from the woods' with Edi th Forrest, saw, to his horror, two ladies alight from the ooyered Wagon at the farmhouse door,,.and recognized Mrs. -Burleigh and .Mi*s .Belie. The elder lady was the first to speak,

' Dear me ! '.she cried. ' You here ? I thought ouly poor folks like ourselves economized hy corofeitto farmhouses. But I 'm so glad—so *wfuily glad—to see yo.u,?

I t was necessary for Mr, Arnolu to declare himself glad also, and then be shook hands with Belle..

' Mamma seemed to think this a sort of misfortune,' she sighed, ' coining to an out-of-the-way place, you kn.ow." Bu t I adore nature. ' I t is so sweet and "peaceful. here. When' iaamma said she would come here t ^ i as .Very glad',.'

A,woman would have seen through, the..transparent rmmyauVre; the man did not. . . .

• I had no idea, she cared."for any­thing but frivolity,'.he said to himself, ;and.thought well of the girl aLonee, -

.Edith-had gone upstairs tt ^"Higv hair.- A little pang pierced.\ , as sh.e looked in the glass. 8&e W*o' not so pretty as Beile Burleigh, and. the latest fashions were impressive.

She grew shy In the presenpu of the."e stylish women, who seemed out of place in the rag-carpeted dining-room,, and a chasm seemed'suddenly to have opened between Arnold and her-self- „ ' - . ' . .

He had resumf d his society manner, She "hardly knew him. He had not- a word to say of their berry-picking, and he talked to these new-found old friends

'of things aod people of whom she hnew uothirig. ' • • ' *

It-was the beginnlug of the end. A practiced -flirt, foi1 once in earnest—a mother who worked hard to help her— had setthemselves'againsther. • When they went to their room that night the mother said to her daugh* t e r ; . - •"• •

another on the moonlit poreh, to say ; .good-bye, . .

His heart turned to her in this aso-i s i e n t of real sorrow, not to Belle Bur-Jaigh, but Edi th did hot know.

She sobbed herself togleep that night, aud awakened with a start ' , th^sloiy tread ofmany feet came up the.garden-paih ; the d'005 was smitten, by ape r -

; sistent hand. . • . ' . " She heard her grandfather go down­

stairs, in his-, flapping slippers,, and c r y : ' - ' • • - ' . . - '

' .Who i s there ? ' a n d a voice ans­wered s. - . ' . . . '

' I t ' s me, Uncle Forrest—Caleb Fisk, from the station. There|s been an ac» e ideut ; your boarder is hur t . ' Vfe've fetehed h im here ; .heasked U3 to. The doctor is comiiig-'

I n his half-iiBeonscious state,Arnold thought he heard E d i t h ' s voice utter his name, and-had amemory of seeing her white and tear-stained face bending over hini..^ but as h e recovered he saw only Belie Burleigh and .her .mother.

They nursed him' very tenderly. 'th^S really cared for hi'm, i t was plain. ' . , . ' • •

Was it only a dream,that'<>E6eEdith, alone beside him, had whispered ' Oh, m y dar l ing '? ' . .

He concluded it mu3t have beeu. H e felt hurt that she did not even- come' to see him, and turned more entirely to Belle. '

* There Is a letter waiting for you,* said Farmer Forrest one day. ' T asked the doetor if you might hev it now, H e said ' ' Yes..' ' I expect it 's bad news^ I t ' s got a mdurnin'-border. I do feel afraid you've lost your uncle.'

' Let me have the lefcter,'*aid Arnold sadly. ' Ah, if I could hut have seen, him before he died!,'"

Then FarmerForcest kindly left h im alone* :aud he opened the envelope.

I t was from the family lawyer, and announced his uncle's death.. I t bore, also, other news. Thegfeat fortune Was not his ; only a modest Income. ."'

Some men might have rejoiced in such a legacy. I t seemed very small to a man. who expected to be a million­aire. ' . ' " ' • '

He turned on hiaprlloW with a sigh, and closed his eyes,^ H e heard Mrs. Burleigh and BeHe some in.but feigned sleep. . . . "

He could not yet break the . news to t h e g i r l w h o cared so m u c h for al l t h a t wealth could buy. He felt like an. im­postor. . ' " $ . "

The two Woracu wluspeied together. He lieard them plainly;

' Asleep ? ' s a i d Belle. • 'Yes,under the influence of an opiate,

"^"Bir^jaSe, my dear,'said Mrs.Burleigh. : 1" ' ve 3 how, that scar changes bis looks'; and I suppose he will always Iimpl See ii'ere;.child^-a le t ter! I t has the news in it, no doiibt.' ' Belle tiptoed across the room. Arnold fell her lift the letter from the counter­pane. • • • ' • • • • - - . •

• I t cannot be any harm for me to read it, 'she whispered i u her angelie way. . . ' . : '

He Gould see her in fancy without opening bis eyes, Then the paper rus tied; He beard her hiss between her teeth s ' A few miserable thousands 1 ' and then' she stole back and replaced-the missive where she had found i t

There was a sound of gliding -foot-. steps ; the door closed ; silence follow­ed. He opeiied'his ey§.s and found that" he was alone,
