And I thought of a table spread with silver und rare china with a lady at its head, who resembled a queen. AsT breathed a luxurious sigh as I awakened from my dream to acknowledge that the words 'Vale df Croix" were being shouted on the platform, and that the train was coming to a standstill Iscised my traveling bag from rack overhosd and hurried out of the carriige. The porter had just pulled four or five trunks on the platform. Twe wagons stood in the road, one driven by an old woman in a sunbonnet, and the other by a red haired boy with bare feet; aod a queer knock-kneed horse attached to queer old gig, wus standing ata little distance. A young man in a «light summer suit, and a eity family bent on rural happiness were my companions on the platform, The former put the trunk in the first wagon, kissed the old woman in the sun bonnet, took the reins and drove away. He was evidently the son of the family, come home to spend his vacation. The rest of the tranks and city family--mother, father and little boy, nursemaid and baby--wore putin the wagon and driven by the boy. When the train moved away I was left alone on the platform--alone, but for the station master, who eat upon a bench smoking a clay pipe. In a moment more, the official, without looking at me, made the remark : "Deacon Stevenson has come for the minister. He's over in the hotel and will be back in a minute." "Thank you," said I The station master took no notice of me but climbed upon a stool, made some changes in a time regis- ter on the wall of the station, locked the door, put the key in his pocket and sauntered away down the rail- road. I took his place on the bench and waited, In a few minutes a prim, little, old gentleman appeared upon the top of the hill, carrying in one hand a tin can, in the other a tin pail, and over each arm a brown paper parcel. I knew ata glance that it was Mr. Stevenson. " Aro you Mr. Mactaggert?" he inquired, mildly as he approached. "I want to know? Ibadn'tany ex- pectation of being kept so long, but, you. see, it saves tho women folks trouble to fetch things when I drive down. Step in, wont't you?

There were only four of us at the table--the deacon, his wife, a stout lady who nover said any more than she could help, and Mary. She bad spent the last winter at Glasgow, and we talked about what she had seen. She was self-possessed, with. out being forward,and oh, so pretty! Now Angelina was splendid and queenly, so this was mild praise that she could not objeet to, only I said it very often. 1 preached on the next Sanday". It was settled that I should spend the summer there, . I wrote this to Angelina: "Since you cannot be with me it does not matter where I am--this stupid place will do as well as any Address eare of Deacon 1 will remain with him while I preach here." It was a pleasant summer, despite the duietness of the place. How was Mrs. Stephenson! As for Mary wondered what Angelina would havo said if she could have seen me helping her to pick blackberries, to find the runaway cow, to carry bome the milk pail, driving her over to the country grocery and return- ing with a freight of groceries--An- mestio details, and whose monno- in company with the paraffine can. I wrote my sermons atone end of the round table, while Mary sat at the other sewing. Between us was the lamp with a green paper shade. Now and then a big bug would fly into the window and go humming about her head or a moth would try to singe its wings over the lamp chimney, and I would drive it out. The eld people would go to bed atter a while, and then Mary and I would find ourselves hungry, and she would go into tho kitchen and find 'something good.' I always held the light for her. And when some- thing good was found, we ate in Lhe back poarch, sitting side by side on She was like a child, that little Mary, that it seemed no harm to ask ber to kiss me good night, or to hold her hand in mine as it rested on my arm, on our long walks home from the church on Sunday even- ing. The summer passed, October came; Angelina retarned'to the city anc wrote to me. It was while wa wore eating peaches and cream in the back poarch that same evening that I eaid to Mary, "I will tell you a secret if you witl kegp it for a while, Mary." "0b, of course I will, Mr Maotog- gert."' "I am going tobe married this fall, Mary,' I said. « "Those pretty letters you always' thought came from my sister came from the lady who is going te marry me.-- She is very beautiful, very rich, very stylish, but kind. You must come and see us Mary, when we are married. I shalltell Angelina, how good yon have been to me--what a sweet little sister I found out here in tbe Vale of Cruix.

This was the voice of Stevenson's nearest neighbor, and I like her and respect her, yet I'did not feel quite sure how Angelina wodld like an introduction, and so refrained from looking around and making . myself known. "I think we had better have tea," said the voice. "It's more refresh- ing than coffee. Ob, how is Mary to-day ? Think of my never asking before." "Mary is poorly," ussell.

"Oh Aunty Russell," she said, " Lknow I: ought to be ashamed, but I cant help it. He seemed to like meso. I hopelsball die of this fever, for life is nothing to me." Ashamed! Why, it's he who ought-to be ashamed. Of all the things, a minister to be a cold, cruel flirt, and that is whut Hugh Mactaggart is." I listened, but I could not move or speak. I felt as though my heart also was breaking, and oh, the time I suffered | The women drank their tea and left, and then Angelina turn- ed to me with a cold, sarcastic smile. "I see by your face that the little story is perfectly true, Mr Mactagg- ert," she said. "Angelina," I faultered, " I have done nbothing . that should. give offence to you." "Nothing but love another wo- man," she 'answered. * Love her, and let her see it, meaning to marry me. Don't think I am hurt; indeed I am relieved, I should 'have kept my word to you but for this; but not so gladly as I once should. You are a very good looking man, but on the whole yon don't suit me.
