came peeping into tire cool, st ire
paved dairy, where pauH of nrilk
and creaut were ranged in orderly
array: great stone pots stood un
der the st elves, atid a blue paint

Mr. Bellenden was justly proud
of his diary.
Not a chance guest cam i to his
house but was invited down to 3ee
it; not a li usekesper in t he neigh
bnrhood bu secretly envied its
many conveniences and exqusite

“An 1 it isn't the dairy alone,’
triuniphan ly remarked Seth Bel
lendcn. “A'»d yon may go thro’
the house from garret to cellar
and you’ll uever find a speck of
dust. There never was such a
housekeeyer as my wife-”
Mrs. Bellenden was young, too
—scarcely three and twenty. She
had b. en thi daughter of a retired

"/Is veiy strange," Lucy bad
written t > her father, "The farm
is beautiful. Foil never saw such
monstrous old lint ton lull trees,
not such superb roses, mid (he

and die s tniwbarrieu shine like

iiolto ly sketches or rends. I don't,
think here is a copy of Teiiuison
in the neighborhood, and no one
ever heard of Dora or’ Millais.—
All they think of is how mauy
dozen eggs the liens lay. aud how
many cheeses they can make in a
year. And the woman who has a
new recipe for waffles, or a new
pattern for a horrible thing they
call ‘crazy quids,’ is the lea der in
vociety.’’
lint presently young Mrs. Bella)
den herself caught the fever, and
became a model housewife.
4 Example ' k is all-powerful, and
Lucy iegau to believe that the
whole end and aim of life was do

And then she w.-ut to wearing
old kid gloves at her sweeping and

“My coat is geitiu shabby,”
Seth one day remarked.

Seth laughed a short ’aogh.
"Whit do you milk Mrs. H ig

“ She has ripped up her husband’s

One;dny when poor Lucy, under
the blighting intlnence of a bnri
Me sick headache was endeavor
ing to st,ain three or four gallons
°l milk into the shining pans, /he
news arrived that Unde Paul wa„
coming to the farm.
“Another guest!” said Lucy dcs
pari ugly
And then she ut/ered 1 lie- pro

“Oh it* only Uncle Paul !” said
Mr. Bblleuden. 1) m’t fret, Lu

gentleman in fho world. lie’ll
make no more trouble than a
criekel. John s wife though l , she
couldn l have him because she had

-Veil her have I!’’ said Lucy, re
beliously.
“dud Sarah Eeliza don’t like com

“Aud 1 tun supj ose,i 10 be fond

ly.
“And Rueben’s girls don’i want
•Id folks staying there. It’s too
much trouble they say,” added
Seth.
Lucy bit her lip |o keep back
the words she might have said, in
stead :
“Where is he to, sleep ? The
Belfords have tlm from room, and
your Cousin Susan occupies die
back room and the four Misses
Patteison sleep in the two hall
chambers, and the hired men have
the garret room.”
She might have added that she
aud her husband and the baby, bud
slept in a hot little de>n opening
from the kitchen, lor four weeks
vainly expecting Mr aud Mrs Bed
ford to depart ; and Unit she had
never yet hiul a chance to invite
■>er fadier to the farm in pleasant
wea'her.
But she win magnanimous and
held her peace
“Oh, you can find some place
for him !” san* her husband ligli l
*y. There’s that lit'le room it
the end of the hill where the spi t
uing vheel is.’’
But it isn't finished,’’p'eaded Lit

“You can eisily sew a carpet to

from the Belford s room ; and il
no trouble to pm tip a muslins cur

lauie, those things are your bust

in il ably.
Lucy could not help laughing
all by herself as her husband ran
il v /lie t tops
But it was a very sad little
laugh arid it soon i hanged into a
sigh
“I wonder,” Slid she, in a whis
per, “if mv poor tin d out giiosl
would haunt those stone pave
ments and scrub shelves, if I were
to die ! I never heard of a gh > t
in a dairy before, blit I shou'd
think lltiit it might easily be.’’

Uucie Paul arrived, a dried up ye*
low complexioned ohl man, with
an old fashioned enva' Red ; ti
mauy folds around lii.i neck, and a
vtiit of navy blue, with brass but
'OUS.
He bad tue polite way of half a
century ago, and Lucy thought
she would like him very much if
she only had time o get acquaint,

But she was churning ten
pounds of blitter a day, and there
