Down in the back parture she was,
the poor little ncice, Mela Langdon,
hut not picking blackberries. She
was sitting on a mossy lor among the

through the sharp bfiarv.never liendk

suit<<r the cruel scratches upon his
taco and hands. 4i
There lay the game he had brought
down, in the shape oi a young giri
who was in a dead faint or killed for
aught ho knew. He quickly loosened
her dress aud dashed s water in her
face from the full canteen which be
happened to have, and finally forced a
few drops of brandy between her lips.
At length she opened her eyes," to bis
great relief, and tried to rise, bnt a
sharp cry of pain allowed there was
some thing more serious than a mere
fright
“What is it, where are you hurt?”
“My arm.” she exclaimed.
He tore the fadejl calico sleeve open
td the shoulder, and sure enough the
soft, white arm was covered with
iobo i and seemed to be riddled with
shot.
“l>enr, de?r, what have I done!” he
etclnimed; hastily lying his own and
her handkerchief lightly around it.—
“There’s no time for apologies or ex
planations. I thought I was shooting
a partridge, and in sonie unaccounta
ble way 1 have shot you. Now tell
me where you live .so 1 can ant you
home as soon as possible. I am a
physician and will soon have the poor
arm all right again.”
“ify home is ju«t over the bill; 1
can walk it you uii! help me a little.”
With a set, resolute face, aud .lips
lightly closed to keep back tho maaus
ot pain, Meta walked hastily towards
home loaning upon his arm. But jnsl
as they reached thu gate she fainted
again, and inking her in his arms he
bore her rapidly to the house, and
without any ceremony pushed open
the parlor door and laid her upon a
sofa.
Mrs. h’mith screamed murder at
the lop of her voice, and went into
violent hosieries. The doctor frowned
scornfully at her, and said to Mrs.
llrown: “Ther's no time for non
sense; bring me some cold water and
bandages ai once, and seud soraebodv
to the hotel for Dr. Chester’s small
case of surgical instruments.”
Mrs. Smith, left lo herself, soon re
covered, and insisted upon an explan
ation of the affair.”
“It’s nothing serious, I hope,

shot into this young lady's arm. Are

“Well, she sleeps in a little closet
of thy room—”
•That wiii never do. Show me the

arms, the doctor followed Mrs. £faiilh
up stairs to a pleasant chamber.—
She groaned in spirit as she turned
down tlae white counterpane, aud as
sisted the doctor in getting Meta un
dressed and into bed; but he was not
to be trifled with at rucb a time.—
‘.Now madam, 1 will excuse you, but

soon disappeared iroar their view.

assiduous doctor than did poor Meta.
Mrs. Smith fumed and fretted over ail
the fti?s that they made about uhat
gill,’ until the doctor frightened her
into sileucu by telling her that he
knew bow she' had treated the poor
child, and that if she didn’t keep quiet
and have everything done that was
needful for her comfort he would have
her urrested and tried for inhuman
cruelty.
Under bis watchful care the dan

took her out to rice as sooq as she
was able, in the easiest of all car

her by saving he was tho cause of all
her suffering and she most allow him
to atone for it in every way he could.
How eagerly he watched the faint
color that crept into bur cheeks at
his approach! How tenderly and
delicately he administered to
her comfort and treasure day atter
day, until at last he ventured to tell
her of his love and his great desire to
have ber for his own. He had be
come very dear to her daring all those
weeks of suffering and she acknowl
edged it and promised to be his wife.

How graphically the varied aspects
of the leaf picture the various season's
of a mau's life! The tenlerness of its
budding and blooming in spring, whin
that rich golden green glints on it that
comes only once a year, represents
the bright beauty and innocence ot
youth, whenever sunrise brings its
fresh, glad hopes and every night its
holy, trdthful calm. The dark green-
ness and fresh vigor of the summer
loaf. portray the strength and self
reliance of manhood while its rusting
heaps on the ground tytdfy the decay
and feebleness of old age, and that
xtrange, mystcruus passing away
which is the doom of every mortal.
