From flint time Sal gave up all hope of edu- cating Uncle Peter, and confined her- self mostly to literary efforts, of which we shall speak hereafter. The night following Sal’s first so- quaintance with Mary, Alice cried until nearly ,daydfwz'n.

But it was of no use for Miss Grundy to complain of this, for as Sal said, “Mr. Parker merely wink- ed at it as the vagary of a disordered mind,” and she was free to quote her grammar from morning till night. Whenever she was crazier than usual her command of language was propor- tionately greater. and her references to her g‘rrm: ar more frequent, while no one in the house Could venture a remark without being immediately corrected for some impropriety of SDDPPH. , Uncle Peter. who had a high opin-‘ Um I»?

With the other inmates of the house. however, she was a special favorite, and many were the kind turns which she had done for the lame woman, whom Miss Gmndy took delight in reminding that. "she didn’t half earn the salt to her por- ridge.” Miss Grundy wore a wig, and as she seemed disturbed whenever the fact was mentioned, the walls of the house both inside and out were frequently ornamented with ludicrous pictures of herself, in which she was sometimes represented as entirely baldheaded, while with spectacles on the end of her nose, she @peared to be peering hither and thither in quest of her wig. On these occasions Miss Grundy s wrath knew no bounds, and going to Mr. Parker she would lay the case before him in so a'gravated a form that at last to get ri of her, he would promise that for the next offence Sal should be shut up. In this way the poor woman. to use her own words, “was secluded from the visible world nearly half the time.’_’ as I am?” Occasionally, too, when safely fastened in the pantry enjoy- ing her green tea and Boston crack- ers, she would be startled with the words, “That must have been an ex- cellent relish!” and looking up she would spy Sal cosily seated on the top shelf eyeing her movements compla- cently and offering perhaps to assist her if she found the tea_too strong! e v __ - ukuulvuo, as she called them, and she exerted herself to repay the debt with inter- est. Sometimes» on a sultry summer morning when the perspiration stood thickly on Miss Grundy’s face as she bent over a red-hot cookstove in the kitchen, Sal, with her feet in the brook which ran through the back yard and a big palm-leaf fanjn her hand, would call out from some shady spot, “Halloo, Miss Grundy, don’t you wish you were a lady boarder and could be as cool and as comfortable age nor, make work, and she vented her spite toward her by getting her shut up on the slightest pretexts. 88.1 knew very well to whom she was in- debted for_her “temporary seclusions,” - - -uâ€"uv. bore a great deal from her, knowing that no one whom he could hire would do as well or save as much as she did.

Then, more co as Mary ooked a little startled, eke added, “Never you fear, dearie, knews what she's about. and she won’t make the little boy the least bit of a face.” From that time there was no more trouble with Alice during the day. for she seemed to cling naturally to Bal- ly. who hour after hour rocked and took care of her. while Mary, in the kitchen below. was buss: with the thousand things which Mu.

There’s Bedlam to pay the whole durin' time when she’s' loose." Mr. Parker knew this very well, but before he had time to answer Mary looked pleadingly in his face, and said. “If you please. don’t shut her up. She was not to blame, for I asked her to help me." this “Well, well. we’ll let her off ”A- r m...“ n “M be: and as Uncle Ubll Ll; tiny Nâ€"nn-v ~_-_, "I can’t get at a word." said he, and turning to the pleasant-looking woman, who was quietly paring ap- ples, he asked what it meant. In a plain, straightforward manner. she told all, beginning from the time when Alice was first brought into the kitchen, and adding as an opinion of her own that the child was suffering from heat. Mr. Parker was a good~ natured, though rather weak man, and in reality slightly feared Miss Grundy. On this occasion, however, he did not take sides with her, but said, "It was ridiculous to have such works; and that if Ma wanted whipâ€" ping. he would do it imself. “But Sal Furhush.” said Miss Grun- WJUV' nov .4-- Mary retreated behind the cupboard door, and Miss. Grundy was about to follow her, when Sal, with a nimble bound, sprang upon her back, and pulling her almost to the floor, snatch- ed the whip from her hand. and broke it in twenty pieces. How the matâ€" ter would have ended is uncertain, for at that moment Mr. Parker him. self appeared, and to him Miss Grun- dy and 831 detailed their grievances, both in the same breath: .. ,1 ._ “Out of my way. ” said Miss Grun- d». “I’ll teach that upstart to break things when she' 8 mad ” Pushing Sal aside, she entered thq kjtqhen. “VIhip you? I guess she won't,” said Sal, and planting herself in the doorway as Miss Grundy came up, she asked, "Come you with hostile intentions?" 7 A _ __ _ Mary instinct-ixely drew nearer to her, as to a friend and grasping her dress, whispered, “Oh. Sally, Aunt Sallv don’ t let her whip me for noth- ing at the same time pointing to- hard Miss Gmndy, who was return- ing with an alder switch, stripping off its leaves as she came: At this stage of affairs Sal Furbush came dancing in, courtesying, making faces, and asking Mary if she thought “the temperature of the kitchen con- ducive to health?” “If there’s a stick on the premises. I’ll use it. or my name isn't Grundy.” said the enraged woman, at the same time starting for a clump of elders which grew near thebrgolg._ At last wholly exhausted and over- come with the heat, Alice ceased screaming, and with her eyes partly closed, she lay panting for breath. while Mary, half out of her senses, tipped over the dishwater, broke the yellow pitcher, and spilled a pan of mgrnirrg’s milk. Mary cast a fearful glance at Patsy, who nodded and smiled as if in ap- probation of Miss Grundy’s command. She dared not disobey, so Alice and her cradle were transferred to the kitchen, which was all day long kept at nearly boiling heat from the stove- room adjoining. Twice Mary attempt- ed to shut the door between, but Miss Grundy bade her open it so she could “keep an eye on all that was going on.” The new sights and faces round her, and more than all Patsy's strange appearance, frightened Alice, who set up such loud screams that Miss Grun- dy shook her lustily, and then cuffed Patsy, who cried because the baby did, and pulling Mary's hair because she “most knew she felt gritty,” she went back to the cheese-tub mutterin something about "Cain’s being rsis the hull time.” that in a short'timesh fell intoa deep slumber. Mary gently laid her down, and then smoothing back the few silken curls which grew around her forehead, and kissing her white cheek, she returned to the kitchen. determined to please Miss Grundy that day if possible. But Miss Grundy was in the worst of humors, and the moment Mary ap- peared she called out, “Go straight back, and fetch that young one down here. Nobody’s a-goin’ to have you racin’ upstairs every ten minutes to see whether or no she sleeps with her eyes open or shet. She can stay here as well as not. and if she bemns to stir, Patsy can jog the cradle.” W ,_ V.‘ , u .vw‘y “A“ not care a copper where Alice 1783 washed, consented, and Mary ran joyfully upstairs with the bucket of clear, cold water, which was so sooth- ing iu its eQects upon the feeble child ALA; A, Alice in m shan’t dist: After a g fretting ab< tions, and 1 body.

My pantalet hung by a few threads. and as I wanted a rag to wash my earthens with. I tore it off. Why don’t. you wear nantalets?‘ Mary was naturally very neat; and in reply to Jenny’s question as to whether she looked like a fright, she answered, "I like your face better than I do your dress. because it is cluan. " Mary now for the first time noticed the appearance of her companion, and readily guessed that the word which she could not rpmember was "slat- tem." She was' a fat, chubby little girl. with a round. sunny face and laughing blue eyes. while her brown hair hung around her forehead in short. tangled curls. The front breadth of her pink gingham dress was plastered with mud. One of her shoestrings was untied. and the other‘ one gone. The bottom of one puntalet was entirely torn off. and the other rolled nem'lv to the knee, disclosing a pair of ankles of no lilli- putian dimensions. The strings of her white sunbonnet were twisted into a hard knot. and the bonnet it. self hung down her hark, partially hiding the chasm made by the ab- sence of three or tour hooks and eyes. Altogether she was. just the kind of little girl which one often finds in the country swinging on gates and malfing mud pies. __ “I made this almost all myself.” said Jenny. "Henry wouldn’t help me because he’s so ugly. and Rose was afraid of blacking her fingers. But I don’t care.

"I think it’s bad enough to have to live in that old house without working; but come and see our fish pond;" and taking .‘lary's hand. she led her to a wide part of the stream where the water had been damnwd up until it was nearly two feet deep and clear as crystal. Looking in, Mary could see the pebbles on the bottom. while a fish occasionally darted out and then disqppearpd. , , “Oh. it was you that screamed so loud. I couldn’ t think who is was, but it can’t be dinner time?” "Yes 'tis; it's noon." “Well. we don’t have dinner until two, and we can stay here till that time.

But whether‘ ‘niot her would like it,” or not, Jenny did not stop to think. and going toward Man, she said, “Have you come to play in the woods?" "‘Jenny Linooin. you mustn't do anv such thine.

She . had not gone far when she came suddenly upon a boy and two little girls. who seemed to be playing near the brook. In the features of the boy she recog- nized Henry Lincoln, and remember- ing what Billy had said of him, she care of Alice, she determined not to hurry. but to follow the course of the gtregm, fancying she should find it to od from the men, whose tones the fancied were softer than usunl. “If I can hear them. they can hear me," thought she, and ahOuting as loud as she could. she soon heard Mr. Park- er’s voice in answer. saying he would come directly. It was a mild September day, and as May knew that Sal would take tor reading now. Quickly her thoughts traversed the past, and her tears mingled with the clear water which flowed at her feet, as she recalled the time when, bless- ed with a father’s and mother’s love. she could go to school and learn as other children did.

She had found a new friend. and though Miss Grundy scold- ed because she had been gone so long. and threatened to shut her up in Sal Furbuah’s cage, she did not "Thank you.

But come along, I‘m going home.” Jenny arose to obey, but whispered to Mary. "You'll find me most any time in these woods. I'd ask you to come to our house. onlv mothet Here Jenny paused. but seeing that Mary was waiting for her to finish the sentence. she added. “She's proud. and sometimes iqnghg at p09; gir_ls.ff “Oh.

"Billy told me the last time he was here that he would cgme a_nd_ stay! with Alice." “Why, you can see her at church." ansyered Jenny. “Why don’t you ever Mary knew she had no beauty of which to boast, but Ella had, so she very naturally mentioned her sister, slaying how much she wished to see er. Loath as Jenny was to make such a promise, she finally did, adding. "I guess I won’t tell Rose either, for she and Ida are great friends. George says he don’t know which he likes best, though he thinks Rose the handsom- ést. He likes handsome girls, and so do I.” ' Mafy felt th'at slie wouldn’t for the world have George know she was in the poorhouse, and she quickly an- swered. “No, no, you mustn’t tell him a word about. me. I don't want you to._ Promise_that you won’t” Jenny was silent a moment, and then suddenly clapping her hands to- gether, she exclaimed. "I know George Moreland. He lives just op- posite our house, and is Ida Selden’s cousin. Why, he's 'most as handsome as Billy Bender, only he teases you more. I'll tell him about you, for mo- ther says he’s got lots of money, and perhaps he'll give you some. ” Ere long, however. she resumed her reading. and then Jenny, softy cares- sing Mary, said, "Don't cry so, for I'll love you, and we’ll have good times together too. We live in Boston every winter, but it will be ’most six weeks before we go, and I mean to see you every day.“ “In Bdston?” said Mary inquiring- ly._ “George lives in Boston." “Sse’ms that she was not observed.
