Jean lelt a little in awe of this younger brother of hers, who had sud. denly grown a man and spoke with an air of authority. She had an ache at her heart for the Davie who had been a little boy and content to lean; she seemed hardly to know this new Da- vid. But it was only for a little. When Jock and Mhor had gone to bed, the brother and sister sat over the tire talking, and David forgot all his new importance and ceased to "buek," and told Jean all his little devices to save money, and how he had managed, just to scrape along. 1 Mhor went out of the room still arguing. The next day David came home. The whole family, including Peter, were waiting on the platform to wel- come him, but Mhor was too interest- ed in the engine and Jock too afraid of showing sentiment to pay much " tention to him, and it was left to Jean and Pe_ter to express, joy It his rpturp.
