useful modey ever spent on me was in ttscaltivation then with a bitter little ihakh papa sayg my lessons cost htm about ten pbands each j but that xh impossible no edith they were begun nnknown lo him and put down on madame lofonts jchool bill for two years then the french lady who taught me had to go home in a hurry and papa was so pressed for money at ihe time that he sold a piece of property for a lentil of its value iu order to raise it he was dreadfully cross about it and he hates a piano ever since suddenly before 1 could ihink about what remarks people woald make 1 said agnes why dont you teach music you would be happier until yoa can go to james and perhaps you might take a liltla money with yoa ever so little woald bhow him you were sorry for the past bhe seized the idea gladly iad fortine favors those who arc not afraid to try her jast at lhat time the blythcwood ladies college needed a teachee of music and singing and acurs was engaged t bfly pounds a quarter 01 coarse the work wu laborious of course her mother and sisters fretted about the disgrace agnes wot bringing otr the family but she persevered diitu she found tha compensatiooh suffi- cient then after the first- long three months bho ijad loving hopefolietters from jaroes iolwo years he hoped io save enough to bay a modest home and tend for his wife and agnes worked steadily oq saving near ly every penud she made for the joy of the maefing set before her after labor the reward r and one tnorwing aboat twenty months after dr flomjogs departure agnes came running lo me crying with joy her panishincut was over jmes had seul for her she was lo sail in ten days i even watched with pleasure the acquisi tive careful temper she betrayed to jcarn how to save money is to evoke a great number of prudent virtues and i had no fear that ever james flemings wife woald run him iu debt again making and saving one hundred and eighty pounds had quite cured her of recklessness in money mat ters well we bid a tearful hpt happy fare well to agnes ou liverpool docks i did not expect to see her again and when we emigrated the following year lo america i allowed her very memory lo gradually fade away twenty years passed and then i revisited the shores of scotland btroliihg one day up buchanan street an open car riage paiscd bwiftly by oud in it were james and agues fleming i coald have mistaken ague but not james the oert day i went out to glensherrio to make some inquiries abctii thero the first per son i saw was james fleming ho had a very fine young man with him and not caring to introduce myself on the street i followed them nntil they entered a vcry hindsome restaence i asked for the doctor he did notkuow me of coarse 1 1 had lo tell him whoi1 was then he called agnes she had grown stout and lost all her beauty but she had a very lovely daughter and i soon saw hew matters stood between the doc- tors handsome- companion arid the doc- lota daughter yes said ague in answer to my look they will be mimed as soon as lionel takes his degree it ii a suitable match hi father made a great deal of monej in the colony andyouvtoo i judge yes james did very well he invested safely and made money both in land and stock besides working hard at his profes sion we only stayed away ien years jutnes hi one tiiocht nichs iitl dir to get back to scotland i passed several very pleasant days with them bat one incident of my stay im pressed me in an almost painf cl manner with ihe bitter mark a sin and a folly makes on the memory the doctor lionel and i were sitting alone oce morning chatting of the sitting u implanted places of the far west- ljonel wa roach interested ia what i said anddrewanolebookand pencil from his pocket to write down some statistics he wished to remember the pencil wu an exceedingly beautiful and convenient one and u attracted cur attention where did you get it lionel 7 and the doctor i at graham v ijvuat did it cost v i really forget i had no change with me and i told him lo pat it down oa the bill t james fleming dropped it as though it hid been rtd hot hj3 face grw dark and stern never icc rae hear you use hose words again sir lionel looked angrily up
