M« auwhile Harry sped on, past the church and sehoolhouse, and all the business part of the town, till ho came to a pretly white cottage a little hack of the street, the garden and front yard enclosed by a neat picket-feme. Harry, discarding the sensible but stupid gate,swung himself lightly over the fence, and look a short cut to the side door.

Mary Clifton stood on the piuzz.i of her father’s house, and looked down over the imerveningsp ice, slnuling her eyes with her hand, till they rested upon a straw hat bibbing liilher and thither in the shrubbery, and al most hidden by the rich-foliage and clustering blossoms of the acacia trees. She ran lightly down . the stops and toward the wearer there-, of. “Oh, Harry, here .^pu are! I have culled and hunted for you live min utes at least, and oh, what a lovely bouquet you have made! You made it for the minister’s wife, of course; please give it to' me quick; it is just what I want for her own room, and it will save me so much time and labor,” and the fair young girl reached out her hand for the treasures; not yet so plenty as not to be very precious. “Sorry, sis,” said the young gen tleman of twelve, holding the bou quet high above his head; “They are not for your minister’s wife, but for mine.” “Well, well, all the same, twist this bit of paper around it. and leave it yourself in her room. Come, we must lyirry: the train is due in twenty minutes.” “Can’t help it if it’s due in ten. These are not to go into the new minister’s house, but the old- one. Tell you, 1 don’t forget, if some oth er folks do. Your new minister’s got about all the flowers and things in town now, and I’m just going to give these to Mrs. Brown, before school, too; so good-bye, sis; guess you can find a few stragglers yet, if you look chary,” and off ran the nimble feet, leaving his sister looking after him, not for tin flow ers. \ “The dear boy,” she murt \ured, a hot flush coming into her cl Ws; ‘he has taught me a lesson,*1 ^nd then she turned and went hastily buck to the house. As she entered the family sitting- room, she met her mother with a fat basket of good things on her arm, coming out to put it in the carriage at *he door, to be trans ferred to the new parsonage, wnlle her father, a mild, silver-haired deacon, was just counting over stepping softly in the door which stood »j«r, he peei»ed in. True enough, there was an elderly wo man down on her knees carefully nailing a carpet. She was humming a tainiliar hymn, “K’cn from youth took! age,” and did not hear Ihe new step till a lies ish hand laid a firm hold oil th>- i.aiiinn r, and a boyish voice ex- dai.uen: “Now, Mrs. Brown, this is wlmt I ca.I hit aking \our word. Didn’t you j.iomi-e Waller that you would lit me Help yon jnsi . s lie did? And lie re you’re breaking your back down hereon Ihe Hoot :I think it's just menu!" Mrs. Brown rose hastily, and though some tears, which she had been bravely keiq inghack, did take the opportunity to drop upon the lieauiiiul flowers which lie placed in her hands in place of the ham mer, she laughed gaily as she in haled, their delicious fragrance, say ing:-' ••Wi.d, llarrv, my hoy-, you have eeitainly made a fair exchange. 1 fear you have robbed your garden to cm ich me." “Oil, my, no; though I did bring you the best I could find. I want ed to, you are best you know; and how is Mr. Brown this morning?” “Not very smart, 1 fear. You go right in to see him; he needs some body to cheer him.” “I have got something for him, too,” said Harry, shyly running his hand in his pockets and producing an orange from one, and a “daily” from another. “I thought perhaps he’d like to see the news." “To be sure; just the -same, my boy. Go and give them to him whilel put these beauties into wa ter.” Three minutes later the boy was ou his way to school, whistling a merry tune, now chasing a flying kitten, or giving chase to a yelping little cur, whose chief end of life was to let people know how he de spised them; and who of all the people he met flocking to I lie new pastor’s house, or wending to their several places ol business, had the idea that he alone, of all the large congregation that the old pastor had gather! d, had this day tried to cheer his loneliness, or help him biar the heavy burden which old age .and failing health had ■ laid up on him? But the little seed was sown, and already was bringing forth fruit. An hour later the little gate of tin parsonage was soheriy opi ned am passed through by the deacon; ami the good man sitting sad, ami. in spite of his own effort and Harry’s call, oppressed with the remem brance of that other day when );«- was the new qimister and his faith ful wife tiie bloming b ide, amt then of many other days, when in bis strength and devoli >n lie ruied his father pl»oed in his hands to be given to the old parson contained a handsome and timely tribute in bank-notes from liis old charge, headed liberally by the new pastor.

You know I could not think of go ing into a crowd.” The speaker, an elderly, delirab- looking man of about sixty, now appeared at Ihe 'door, ami Itoth mother and daughter exclaimed To. gether: “Oh, thank you, Uncle John, ih:= t would be nice, and now how shall we get word to her ?•” “I will attend to that myself,” said the deacon, putting up the money and rising; and Mary, as she reached him his hat and cane, saw suspicious dimness in his eyes. going out, and his daughters were like plants, beautifying his home and making lile a joy ami a poim; now tln-v were nil awav, some in Siss isl. j A new marvel has appeared in The palatial residence of Mr. j the heavens.

He must be happy, don’t you think ?” “Yes, mamma;” and she leaned out to try and get a glimpse of the bird in the tree. A glancing of bright brown wings was all she could see through the thick boughs “Suppose you take his advice, Daisy, to-day. and do everything cheerfully,” said her mamma, after a pause. It was a new thought to Daisy that a bird should teach her a les son. and she laughed. But she knew her fault, and pretty soon, with a little sober taee. she said: “I will try to do as the birdie siys, mamma.” And all day long she did try, especially i( mamma would say, “Cheerfully,” by way of a reminder.

The most extravagantly finished apartment is the ball-room adjoining the east parlor. In it are little niches lor statuary and at regular intervals massiye columns support a ceiling elaborately worked in pla.ster and then bronzed. The flooring is of solid polished mahogany, while the walls, except the lower portion which is wainscotted in Italian inarhta, are snmv white. The conservatory, immediately in the rear, is already filled with plants and shrubbery, and spaces have been reserved for Mr. Garrett’s fine collection of orchids. Muji stie chandeliers and electric jets in tinted globes, by special contrivan- cesjnadetoshed soft, luminous rays, are plentifully scattered through out the house, and will serve to make time one continuous day. The most striking adornments of all the apartments are the antique mantels, selected by Mr. Garrett himself while abroad. They are mostly made of mahogany, upon which are carved characters of the medieval age. Tiie one in the library is perhaps the oddest.
