'No fear,' answers Harry; 'I know what wo- men are--and she'd be revolationiz- ing the house and herself too.' Yes that I should, but its them I should revolutionize, not myself," sho em- phatically pronounced. "It may be that old love affair cropped up again --~that woman who threatened to bring an action for breach of pro- mise when James married me.-- Porhaps she has been writing to him 'Mind you don't let Dinah Ann find it) says Harry, Or perhaps--per- baps James has been foolish enough to let her meet bim. Harry, not a married man himself, and a lawyer, would lend himself to any oarthly thing without scruple, All lawyers do." This rural district, remote from the haunts of the wily men of the world, given over gntirely to farm- ers and farming? interests, simple minded and simple mahnered people, who lived out thoir uneventful lives 7% "It's more mn I shall be" thought Dinab Ann, "unless 1come to the bottom of this," 3 He ate his supper in silence, like a man who hdd preoccupied, He enjoyed it too, for he was very hungry. 2 "James do you ever hear any- thing of that Emma Land? James Harbury laid down his question and looking 'across at his wife, whose face was bent over hor knitting. oh «Do I over \heir anything ot Hmma Land ? ho repeated, " What can mako you ask that, Dinah Ann?" « What can make me ask it? Idon't know. Why should I not ask it? "There is no sense in it---That I soe." " And do you? " Do I what?' « Byer hear of her?" " Why, you know she went out to --where was it #--the West Indies I think--to het friends there--ever go long ago.--You know she did Dinah Ann." « But sho might write from the West Indies, Perhaps she doos. Does she write to you ?" Ho shook his head to imply a nogative, and then occupied himself with his supper. Emma Land had at one time been a somewhat sore subject between them, for Dinah Ann was jealous in the old days. "Do you ever 800 her, James?" "Seo who?" "You know. Emma Land." 41 can't think what | bas put &l this Me. gone head to-night Dinah Ann. How is itr in the routine of daily duties. The small market town of Northam, four miles distant, was sleepy and prim- itive, never awakening from its slimbers only on weekly market day. Iv had its parson, its doctor, and its lawyer--IHarry Loete--all three of them being nearly as simple as farmers, Not simple in point of intellect, it must be understaod, but as to life and manners, r "This (Thursday) was market day,--James Harbury had gone to it in the gig of a brother farmer, Peter Hall, his own mare, which ho either rode or drove generally, being sick. Ho was a tall; slender manof nine and thirty yedrs, very fair, with ex- ceedingly handsombo features, and mild blue eyes, looking ds unlike the popular notion of a farmer as a man could look, and presenting a marked contrast to his agricultural neigh- bors, So far as appearances went, none of them, rich or poor could vie with James Harbury,and his temper and his bearing were alike gontle, Ho bad one fault--though perbaps all people would not call it a fault-- love of money. That ke wasone of the "warmest" farmers in the district was universally believed, and the mostsaving of men. Toosaving, his wife would tell him, and where was the use of it? she would ask--con- sidering she had neither chick nor child-- and overy now and then she would make the money fly, for she was a dear lover of smart attire and of having pretty things about her. James would wince and bid ber to bo careful, but he never went the longth of telling her sho spent too much, Ho was fond of her, and she of him. y Neither chick nor child. In that fact had lain a sharp sting. Thay '| had been married eight years now, and the sting was wearing itself away. Time softens all things He had never given her cause for an unbappy thought--until to-night, He bad never had any seeréts from her, except that he could never be brought to tell her what the exact sum was that he was epabled to put by at tho end of each year, Dinah Ann Harbury did not care for that; she knew that, however much it might be, it was all for her. But she did care for this--this mysterious secret which bad came to her hoaring to-night, She knew how good looking James was, how universally he was liked by man and woman, and what 4 kind beart he had--she put it soft--and something like jeolously began to tormient her | spirit, Ali aE When James came in again .the supper tray was at one end of the tablo and Dinah Ano, an unusual light in ber eyes, sat at the other. % Well," she said, as he cut him- self a slice of cold beef, "and how did you find White Bess?" : (jor yon : 3 + «Oh, sho soomis comfortable," ho You decetfiil villian!

" Why, how could 1sgee ber? re- turned he, in a sort of hu'nless*tone, that his wifo fully thought, was put on. "Bhe is in tho West Indics and [ am here." «@8he may not be in the West Indies now." «I don't know where she is. She's there for all I kndw, and I'm sure it doos not matter, Ask no questions and you'll here no stories," and he quoted the line familiar to her in ber old scheol girl days, « should riot at all wonder, James, but what Emma Land bas come back again." " Maby. Two or three years ago we heard she had married out thora--" "Who heard it--who said it ?" "1 know I heard it; I remember it quite well ; but as to who said it, I forget that--your brother, I think. That she had married her cousin." «Net unlikely. For she was roady to marry anyboby, Sho laid traps to marry you, you know." «That's about true; but I did not fall into them, Dinah Ann." And James Harbury turned from the sup- per tray to reach bis pipe. Dinah Ann resumad bor knitting, and fell into a vory unpleasant roverie, A fow days passed away; things go- ing'on smoethely at the farm. Dinah Ann recovered her temper, and James Harbury was the samo as usual, save at times bo soemed 2 little absent and thoughtful. Ono afternoon he went upstairs to change his every day coat for a better one, « Where are you going?" vried Mrs. Harbury, quickly, as ha came own, « Only into Northam, I home early." : «Into Northam ? It's not a market day", . «No but I ve got a little business there about these sheep you know. I shall get them at ny own price, after all, Dinah Ann." «Qf course you will, Itold you go all along. ButIdo wonder you could not wait till to-morrow." # Oh--market day's is always a bustling day ; ono forgots half one's business or has nottimeto do it.
