often over books ever fhemiee embroidery for which he designed patterns teaching her little dog a thous and tricks feeding the blind kittens phelou saved from drowning making a little well from which the canary drew buckets of water and phemie and the old man would wander off to the river side wherj he would fish iidom catching any thing and ehe would read or knit kone of the family knew of thesa ioti- macies belle older than phemie by six years preferred that she should consider herself a child until miss norris was mat rind and aunt marcia detested her for her reasnimaucc to the sisterinlaw who had never becu congenial so one in the house know but boiho one uot of the houfahold did and shared at times in tbcn sometimes when the old mans rod daugled over the water a younger angler would lake his phtce near him a hand some young fellow with black hair and the brightest eyes in the world and there the hours went by like hoars ia a dream and fhemia felt happy a she bad felt when a child by her mothers aide and uncle billucgliod and old fishermans stories asfor the yoang man silent or talkative he was always charming so thought phemie she was wellread in romantic lore wlial happened was only to be ex pected la a little while two lovers sat beside old uncle bill on the banks of the pretty stream and walked together as far as the little gate in the hedge that nobody else used and did not hide from the old nun that hey parted with a kiss fred howard was not a fashionable man the only eon of a poor widow who hid made a bookkeeper omfcfeboy what holidays he had he spent at borne-

been sent to- freds mothers littlo house the bride was not as happy as she might liave been under other cir cumstances but at home no one had ever loved her or considered her since her moth- eruleath and fred loved her and she loved him her only trouble was that the j must leave old uncle bill that is hard the old man said very hard phemie and then fred holdout his hand uncle bill he said we shall live in a very plain way but if you will live with us we will do our best to moke you happy and shall be happy ourselves will you be so boy cried uncle bill a poor old man like me eh really v really cried phemie dancing with ioy i really and truly heaven knows and fred grasped his hand and shook it you brought us together uncle bill he said its lucky afiswered uncle bill for brotberinlaw norris has turned me out of his housa for aiding and abetting you told me ihat i might be town poor if i liked i didnt r just said very well ill go ill get your things and take thorn to mothers said fred youll be company for her while were gone afterthat one bome for all of us then the old man looked at them with a smile looked at mrs howard with an other and langhed his sweet goodnatured laugh youre two good honest generous chil dren he said and youre freds mother maam but ive an explanation to make five years ago my sister susan heard that i was sick and at a hospital and took me to her hoase she nursed me back to tolerable health and was very good to me then sweet angel she died she thought that being in a hospital meant poverty i was paying fifty dollars a week there i have a fortune that even mr norris would respect bnt sesing what he was i took a fancy that id find out what his children were lhave i have lived about the place as uncle bill a poor re lation i wasnt wanted even at the table i was despised by all but phemie she dear little soul has been a daughter to me i told sister busan the truth on her death- bed and promised to do my best by this sweet girl and my money has been grow ing nnder good care for five years why hod i been the beggar they thought me id have gone o an almshouse rather than eat norris bread all these years as it was i enjoyed the joke to think how he would have respected me if he had known the truth how he scorned me for being poor when i was a wealthy man but let all that we are happy together and what need we care there was great excitement at the norris mansionwhen the news reached its inhabi tants and mr norris sent a formal forgive ness to his daughter she was a good gi1 and felt glad that this was so but she only began to

five- dollar bill and went his way mr whit- shortly thereafter put on his hat and took bis cane and walked down to the other end of the village and called upon his brother lawyer a pleasant chat on passing topics of general interest and then levi broached his business he wished to settle that little master between john sawyer and deacon stimplc the whole amount was three dollars and fifty cents
