To no one of the family did Jessie take so kindly as to him. lle had been the first to Conquer her, and she clung to him with a childish, trusting love, whose influence he Could not resist. Naturally full of life and fond of exercise, she was his constant com-â€" panion in the fields and in the woods, where, fearless of complexion or dress, she gather- ed the rich butternuts, or sought among the yellow leaves forthe brown chestnuts which the hour frost lmd cast from their prickly covering. She liked the country, she mid, and when her grandmother wrote, as she often did, begging her to come back, if only for a week, she absolutely refused to go, hidding’Walter, who was her nmanuensis, say that she liked staying where she was, and never meant to live in the city again. To “'alter she was of inestimahle advantage, for she cured him of more than one bad habit, both of word and manner, and though he, perhaps, would not have acknowledged it, he was vesy careful not to offend her ladyship by a repetition of the offence, until at last his schoolmates more than once called him stuck-up and proud, while even Ellen thought him changed. ‘ {each-ed to break myself of using the woxd ' darn ;' not because a pert city miss wishes it, but becauseâ€"3 on him ipang by criticising some of his modes of speech.

Jessie was as afi'ectiqm'te and warm-heart- ed as‘ehe was high-tempered and rebellious.

Slowly, as one wakes from a heavy slumber, Jessie came back to life,and the first words she uttered were : ‘ Nu,not dead,‘ answ :red one of the group,‘ ‘ his heart isbeatiug yet but sheâ€"’ and he poiuted to little Jessie, whom a strong man carried in his arms.

This was a good deal for \Valter to do. Never had he called anyone darling before, never kissed even his l)lue.cyed cpusin Ellen, but the first taste inspired him with a desire for more, and he wondered at himself for having refrained so long. There was a lierce'struga'le in the water, and the ice was broken up for many yalds around, and then, just as those who stood upon the shore, brezitlileSsly awaiting the result, were beginning to despair, the noble boy fell fainting in their midst, his arms clasped convulsively around Jessie, n hose short black curls and dripping garments clung tightly'to her face and form. Half an hour later and Deacon Marshall, smoking by his kitchen fire, looked ~fron1 the western window, and, starting to his feet, exclaimed : ‘ Will she live I” he asked eagerly of the physician, who replied : ‘ There is now no reason why she should not,’ and \\'alter hastened away to his room. where, unobserved, he could weep out his great joy. Gradually, as the days went by, Jessie comprehended what \Valtcr had done for her, and her first impulse was that some one should write to her father,-â€"â€"somcbody who would say just what she tend them to, and as Aunt Debby was the most likely to do this, the poor old lady was pressed Inf 0 the service, groaning and sweating over the ‘ And now pa,‘ Aunt Debby wrote, after telling of the necident. ‘ \anter must be paid. and I’ll tell you how topay him.
