“Mayfie you’ll find another call mid
sell that,” Johnny said.
“No sue!? said Ann,
“Now I’ll go an’ put this away wTW
the near milking time.”
“Let me come too,” Alice said*, foL
lowing on to Ann’s room, openftfjj
from the kitchen and overlooking the
orchard.
Ann took an old family Bible from
her closet and laid each bill carefully
between the leaves, putting it back
on the top shelf.
“If thieves was thick as blackber
ries, which they isn’t,” she said, “not
one o’ them would open a book to
find money, lei alone a Bible.”

dently ; they don’t like to have much
to do with a Bible, I guess.”
Nobody saw two eyes that looked
eagerly in for a moment and then
disappeared as Ann went into the
kitchen and the children returned to
their play in the barn. Nor did they
notice the faint rustle in the cow
house, or feel that the same sharp
eyes watched them between the
boards of an old stall at the very
end where straw was piled in for the
cow’s bedding Mr Carter came up
from the field presently, as The first
bell rang for stiffper, ; and stopped for
a lyomerit as he passed the barn.
“Yes, if it is pleasant to-morrow,”
Alice heard him say, in answer to
some -questirti from YViuthrop, and
ran out at once.
“0, papa ! are you going to take
us all ? Ann and everybody ?”
,but one, who must stay to
keep house,” Mr. Carter answered.
“You did last time, Alice, -so it’s
JohnnyJs.turn now.” •*
1 “O', dear! I wish houses could keep
rtienaselwes, papa,” Johnny groaned.
“You won’t be gone all day, will
you
,I‘Till late afternoon, my .boy. We
must'get in our renter Supplies, for
soon the creek *t£i II be so swolen we
cannot cross You shall go

Johnny brighteneij up at once, and
began to plan yvjiift should be done

and . the family ,\»ent in. Milkiog
time passed, the great barn doors
were shut, and nobody saw the dark
figure lafcc in the evening
dropped from a Tittle window of the
stable, %nd skulled away through the
orebardv nfhttering : “All aloi e all
day ! Couldn’t have come round
better”'
Now ferjty dollars will not seem
very you, but it was a great
deal to Ann, who worked bard for
all she earned in Mr. Carter’s family,
and to this was just so much
clear gain lieyond her yearly income.
And this ff* bow it came to her.—
Thretf an emigrant wag
on, bound several others still
farther camped all night on
the great Illinois prairie, in the midst
of wdiich was Mr. Carter’s section of
land. The Vermilion Kiver ran close
by,*ar stream full of rapids and deep
holes 'and treacherous quicksands.
Supposing the ford perfectly safe,
ewner of the foremost wagon did
nol untie tho cow following behind,
bnt drove, in * carelessly, to find his
horses in a moment off their feet and
struggling in the swift current. How
they got across at last he ?buld not
have told, but when the
children were sqfe on the other side,
! the poor cow was found to be dead,
j strangled by the rope which had
; wound about her neck. The calf,
1 ouly a day old, had beeu lifted into a

little thing camp fire. Hero
Ann found it-in the afternoon, almost
Mead, and* in -her strong arms tftok» it
Tiome and 'fed it witli warm ifiilk.
"Nobody thought live*; but
•Knn’s baby, as Alice called it, after a
month or two, wherein it seemed
JPaily dying, turned around and grew
as if-to make up for lost time. In a
year there was no finer heifer among
all Mr. Carter’s cattle, and when by
and by She began to give milk, the
neighbors all declared it was as good
as tfoeir cream. Farmers came to
see hit, and Ann in time found that
ftbr nursling was a Devon, and wortli
more than any cow in the neighbor
.ltood. The calves were in demand
all about, and the money you know
about was the second forty dollars
Ann had* received and laid away in
the Bible. Big Dennis, the head
man on the farm, looked upon her as
;fh heiress, and was ready at any
time to begin house keeping in the
way t&lked of by Alice; but Ann,
like many anotheHieftess, was afraid
bjf loved her than her
sW, and still Ifek'hjtiaok from answer
ing liisN^hestiqn.
Johnny rod! wirtt them next, nmr
niftg as far as tht; ford, and watched
the wagon safefy-through, wondering
meantime where the bridge was gone,
which in the' spring freshet had
floated ofl’.
“Don’t go far from the house!” his
fattmr called at the last moment.
“AH jight!” Johnny shouted back,
almost wishing something would
happen so that he could ring the big
bell, and call Dennis and the other
men from the distant field where they
were ploughing for winter wheat.
Then he walked slowly up to the
house, going into every room aud
banging every door hard as he came
out. It seemed very lonely and
the sun streamed in
ftut JohiYity”Hhc\ hi* <>wn plans, and
going to the barn, be picked out two
big pumpkins and carried them into
the kitchen, stopping a moment to
watch big Dennis, who Ltd come up
, for a spade.
' “There is a on the prairie,
camping,” he flnd. “I wonder it
don’t go on, sucti a fine day as this.”
“Maybe there is somebody sick,”
Johnny said, remembering the baby
that had died near the camping
ground a year before.
“FIT go over'at noon an’ ax them,”
DetTnis said, walking away.
Johnny lugged his pumpkins to
tbo kitchen, sat down on the fioor,
and was soon busy digging them out
for Jack-o’ lanterns.
It was hard work, but he refreshed
himself by thinking how fine they
would look, one on each side of the
great gate, when all came home.
Once or twice he looked up, thinking
he heard a sound as if somebody were
trying to open a window; but those
in. thejdlclien were wide open, and
Ann’s, be knew, was fastened down
by a big nail. The pumpkins were*,
hollowed, out and Johnny was intern,
upon the eyes, whetj r a step behind!
mad* him jump up and cry out, as
he caught and held tight by a
dark gypsy looking lad, seventeen or
eighteen. Johnny screaned loudly,
but in a moment was sienced by a,
handkerchief stuffed into his mouth
and-stnother tied over it.
. “That'll keep you -piiet long
enough, I reckou,” said tlia boy, look
ing around uneasily, as if earful some
one might come. “Now,‘you little
varmint, you see that knie! If you
stir or move, I’ll cut yous throat as
easy I’d cut a pig’s. I know what
I want aud I’ll help mysei.”
Jofcr.ny kept bis place os the floor,
half choked, but so frigblencM he
could not stir'; while the boy, fiftt
bolting the kitchen doorao that no
onfr oould corne in that way, and
faSgßiing down the wii.cows, went
irifSPAnn’s room, took ost the nail
and opened the window, Horn which
he could step into the or.hard, and
food turned to the closet. The upper
shelf was too high for hiir, and, after
reaching up for a moment,he brought
a chair; mouutiug upon tlathe threw
down the various bags and bundles
which Ann had piled ov»r the old
Bible, till he had it in his hand and
began to turn over the leares.
Now the door of tbeclo®et bad
been taken from a log ho»s« used iu
the Indian days, and bad not only
lock ahd key, but two hqj.vy bolts at
top and bottom, never used uow, to
be sure, but strong as ever. And as
Johnny sat there, his sauses and
courage coming back, he saw what
should be done, and did it at once.
With a bound so suddeu that the
thief had not time to turn, he dashed
into the room, threw himself against
the door and turned the key. Then,
as:a ki4fcanlfe*.\vhioh % niight haxV

lower bolt, eli/tibed into a ohair and
dM the same hjfcthe upper*one, and*

«i£ was at work, tearing off the hand

“Go to the house!” was all lie

and Denuis, thinking it must be fire,
ran, with the three mdn after
Johnny sat dotw in 1» furreTO a
moment, and then* sprang up and
ran after thorn. * j
“You’ll have to grif # in at
dow !” he shouted, asl)ennis, finding
the kitchen door locked, ran around
the house. “Ann’s window is open ! !
Look in the closet!” he added, as!!
Dennis, pausing outside to hear tlm
storm of kicks and,! blows on the
turned to the'men and remark
ed, as’lie jumped in, nn’jlte

Johnny, me boy, there’s time enough
for you to lie tollin' what it is.
“It’s not I that’ll be lettin’ ye out !”
he shouted with a responsive kick on
the door, w hen Johnny had finished
his story. “Be asy now, honey. Ye’ll
get all ve want when the masther
comes, and in the inane time we’ll
have a quiet, placabffi time kaping
ye company outside. For fear,though,
ye may make flinders of Ann’s
clothes, I’ll just tie ye a bit.” «
That was a scene, when Dennis
opened the door, and the four men
were kept busy for a few
while he wound the rascal up with
two clothes lines, and Johnny danced
and screamed with excitement. Then
Dennis laid him back among
bundles, picked up the money and
Bible, and again bolted the door.

running, came over. Johnny, cry
