Gnkiriflt, Cm-
H ANCl! Everythingold fash
ioned about me, even my
name- What is the use of trying
to keep up with tho world? I must
•tay hore and take care of Aunt
Abigail, for she took caro of me
when I was loft alone, and it is on
ly plain dnty for me to return it,
now that she is old. But why was
I l»rn fell of ambition that never
can bo realized?”
A petulant frown chased away
by a stinky smile, as Nancy glints
the cold winter night from view,
and turned to the glowing lire
with n glance to make sure that
Aunt Abigail’s tea was drawing.
A regular wild rose of u Taco, with
soft brown oyes, and darker hair,
clinging in tendiils around the low
forehead. As far as looks were
concerned there was certainly no
reason for Nancy to oomplain; but
ic was hard for the girl, with her
nineteen yonrs, to be shut in the
lonely farmhouse on the hill, with
one querulous old woman for her
•ompanion, whan the city but
wenty miles away offered bo many
resources.
“Nancy, somebody’s knocking.
Shut tho kitchen door when you
3|M?n the outside one so the wind
won’t come near mo. Oh, my old
joints! ’ and Aunt Abigail drew
closer to her warm corn lr, while
Nancy, Bci/.inga small iron lamp,
that would have delighted the
iieart of a connoissour in antiqui
ties, drew back the bolt, and peep
ed into the dark vista before her.
As long as lie lived Nomina Da-
•y never forgot tho picture that,
mat his eyes, of a dainty, petite fig-
u-e.-whil flushing face, frnmrd in
curling tresses, one firm little hand
holding tho light above her head,
and all sharply outlined againa:
tho deep shadows. “Pardon mo,
but may 1 enquire if Miss Abigail
Bateman lives hore? Her houss?
Then may I ace her on business?”
and a little later the tall,debonnair
young man was explaining to Aunt
Abigail all tho circumstances of
her lawyer (his uncle) having sent
him down to enquire if Miss Hate-
man lmd any instructions to give
concerning a bit of western land
which had lately been purchased
for hor.
“The old lady has a clear head
[or business, and likes to manage.
You have nothing to do, Norman,
I wish you'd run down and see
what she wants. I’m up to my
neck in work this week.” Bo the
keen eyed lawyer told his nephew,
and the young man found himself
devoutly thaniiiiig tho fates that
sent him under the same roof with
such “a little beauty,” as lie men
tally labeled Nancy.
It was surprising how many vis
its were necessary before Norman
could clearly state to his uncle
Miss Bateman’s wishes, and then
the sport of fishing through the
ice, and gliding over the snow with
Nancy for a companion, prolonged
the intervals of the young man’s
absence from tlio city, as well as
strengthened his reasons for seek
ing the country. It was after
some glorious hours spent in skim
ming over tho frozen surface of the
little pond in the hollow that Nan
cy said, as she poised herself dain
tily on one uhini ig streak of steel;
“Mr. Du'ey, your business must
suffer. How (an your uncle upare
you so often?”
“My uncle? Oh, I’m no lawyer.
It it pas ibie t..at you have not,
perceive l my pn found loro of.
tiutii? No, Mis: Ni.ncy, I’m a
compos r. W rile niaaic that no

the income of what father left me.
Two thousand a year, just enough
to enable me to delude myself into
thinking thnt by givingall my time
to it, I might some day strike a
note worth its weight in gold,"
Tho latter part of tho sentence
was spoken in a rather rueful tone
of voioe, fora new train of thought
had rison at Nancy's query. There
was no question about it—lie was
'n bvo—very much in love, with
the fair maiden at his side, and his
first impulse was to tako advan
tage of the tiino and plnoe, and tell
her so,but for once the first iinputs"
was to put aside, for how coaid a
man of prido offer himself to a wo-
man, when he had not in al of his
life proved himself able to support
her. Row men, with an income,
adequate, if s nail; would have hes
itated, but there were fine grains
in Nniman Daley's nature, in spite
of his natural light Iuartedness;and
ho said to hi nse f as he whirled
city wurd that night; “I’ll go to
Now York to morrow, make one
more attempt with music, and if it
fails go into unclo’s office. Then
when 1 have proved myself (and
not once will I let myself hear from
her till I do) come back to my lit
tle girl and ask her to make me
happy ”
Man like ho overlooko I a very
important point. How was Nancy
to understand tho inner workings
of a mind, when miles lay between
that mind And herself.
As the days ran into woeks, and
the weeks into month.!, the pretty
light in her oyea faded, and her
voice no longer trilled gayly over
her wors. Fina’ly Aunt Abigail,
not as obtuse as her niece supposed,
remarked in n rumin iting manner:
SeeniB to mo that young Daloy
haint be eh here for n good while.
Heard from him lately, Nancy?”
and the quiet "No aunt” turned
the old Indy's eyes to the fire, with
an unasually thoughtful expression,
•My girl,” shesak^a few (lays later,
•you used to widi to go to the city
to teucli school, and I know the rea
son you did not go. B3caus,i o’
me; but there's C'aralyn Meservv,
as was saying to-day how she’d
como and livo here, and 1 shan't
be a bit lonesome, so 1 lon’t want
you to waste any more of your
young years shut up at this old
eruer. Don’t .-ay a word, child,
its all fixed, and you are to come
home once a month.”
it had been a very bright dream
0 f Nancy to teach in a certain sun
ny Kindergarten, kept by a friend,
and now it was more,—a refuge
from' herself,, for tho days wor e
long and lonely without; but Nancy
was brave as well as proud, and
would not admit even to herself
that there was a special reason for
lonelinesi. So it was arranged,
and in tsvo weeks’ lime the old
house would be without its one
sparkle of young life.
Meanwhile a s ing had been pub
lished in the city that had taken
the public by Mono. Busy men
hummed it as they ran up their of
fice Ht ps, delicate ladies s ing it to
the accompaniment of jewelled
guitars, and street urchins whistled
it shrilly at the corners. For years
there hud lieen nothing so popular,
[t bre thed of fleecy snow and
gleaming rivers, of sun shining on
slender icicl s, of tho clear tracery
of evergre n and pine against a
wintry sky,and through it all, Love,
with gold tipped arrow, gleamed.
Again a knock at tbe farm bouse
door, and agi n Nancy swings it
“No dear, don’t tako me in yet,
Norman pleads, in low voice and
nger. “I shall want lo seo Aunt
Abigail soon. Indeed I shall, bat
first Nancy, I have n stiry to tell
yon, of a poor young man who fell
desperately in love with a little
girl, but felt lrimself unworthy to
tell her about it,” and in quirk
earnest words he portrayed his
struggle, ending with “and ao I
went to New York, dear, nnd set
myself to work, tho result being
only a little song, but one which
has made me famous in a small
way, and encourages me to believe
I can do something in tin world,
and now you know all, except—
Nancy a second edition of the a >ng
comes oat soon. I want to de li«
cate it to the one who inspired it,
nml whom I first saw, standing, as
now, in this very doorway. Nan-
oy, my little girl, caa I dedicate it
to My Wife?" And Nancy's vis
ions of country lonoliness and city
teaching vanished forever, as she
hid her blushing faon on her lov
er's shoulder and whispered “Yes.”
—HnirtMone,
Mr. Albeit Favorite, of Arkansas
City, Kan., wishes to give our read'
era the benefit of his experience with
colds. He says: •“!.contracted a cold
early last spring that settled on my
fflngs, and had hardly recovered from
it when I caught another that hung
on all summer and left me with a hack
ing cough which I thought I never
would get rid of. I had used Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy some four
teen years ago with much success,and
concludtd to try it again. When I
had got through with one bottle my
cough had left me, and I have not
suffered with a cough or cold since. I
have recommended it to others, and
all speak well of it.” 50 cents bottle,
