“Of course She did,” said Belinda •
"and I told you as much before ’ did I

“But I never heard of such a thing !”
cried Jonathan, excitedly. “I’m a well
to-do farmer, and she is only a servant.”
“Where is she ?” said Jonathan, with
a vague idea of seeking out the obdurate
one and pleading his own cause, for
an offer of marriage chanced to be the
question under debate.
“Gone!” uttered Miss Belinda.
“Gone V” echoed her brother.
“Yes, gone!”
Miss Belinda set the two pies in the

Jonatnan t> Bruce said • nothing, but he
took bis elbows down off the window sill
| . and walked slowly away, feeling that all
No. G.
the brightness had gone out of the sky,
all the sweetness from the balmy July
“I have made a mistake,” thought lie.
“Seems to me my life is all mistakes, I
ought to have spoken out myself instead
of leaving it to J.indy. 1 thought a
man could manage such matters
than a man, hut I forgot that there are
different kinds of women. Lindy is ex
celleut in driving bargains about butter
and eggs, and chickens, but 1 doubt if
sh? is quite gentle, and soft-spoken
enough to deal with a question like this,
Poor little Dortliy 1 l wish 1 bad asked
her myself, though perhaps after all it
wouldn’t have made any difference.”
Jonathan llruce had lived to the age
of forty-livd without feeling the darts of
Cupid, and whin he did fall in love it
was a serious business,
Dorot by Dale Itad come down to the
old farmhouse to earn her own living.
She was a delicate, lovely girl of nine
teen, with dark gray eyes, black hair
drooping low on her forehead, and with
a fresh bloom like that of a peach.
She had tirst come to Luwmoor to try
and get the position of teacher in the
district school. But the trustees hap
petted to have their special favorite, and
when the spectacled Miss Keene was ap
pointed, poor little Dorothy found her
self penniless in a strange place.
“What can 1 do V” she asked pile
ously.
“Miss Bruce wants a servanf*” sug
gested the landlord’s wife. “A pound a
mouth and a good home. House-work
ain’t so genteel as teaching, but it’s
more liealthy.”
And Dorothy caught at the straw
which a kind I’rovidence seeiued to ex¬
tend to her, and took tlie position as ser¬
vant in the Bruce family, which she till¬
ed satisfactorily until Jonathan’s unex¬
pected offer of marriage drove her away
like a scared bird.
“Marry him 1 Income his wife !”
thought Dorothy, with Hushed cheek
and wildly beatiug heart. “Never! nev
er ! n
And yet, strange to say, she did not
actually dislike honest Jonathan Bruce,
It was only the natural recoil of the
-»»''.i.i f..,-,*, ti~
untamed deer rroffii the huntsman’s
touch.
It was scarcely a month from the (lay
on which tlie middle-aged farmer listen
cil to his doom, and lie chanced to be
crossing tlie bridge which spanned the
river, when, all of a sudden, he came
uppn a slight iigure crouching iu one of
its embrazures.
“Why, Dorothy, child 1” he cried,
starting back.
She pushed the dark Hair out of her
eyes and looked up at. him deliautly.
“Yes, it is I,” she Said.
“You are pale and thin,” ho uttered
"lowly.
“Yes,” said she, “I I have hard
work to live. In truth and in fact I am
almost starved."
“Yet you would not marry me V”
“No, I would not,” she flushed out.
“Will you not many me now ?”
“No.”
lie looked hard at her.
“J think you are making a mistake.”
She was silent, still looking at him in
tlie same scared, uncertain sort of way. !
“However,” lie added, “that’s neither
here nor there. But Belinda misses you. j
She will be glad to have you back at the
old farmhouse again.”
“After—”
Dorothy checked herself Instinctively,
“Yes, everything. Let bygones he by- j
gones. Remember only that Belinda
wants you, and that there is always a
home for you there. And as for me, you
needn’t trouble. 1 shall not be in any
body’s way,” he added, a little bitterly,
“1 am going up to some slate quarries
that I own, and Belinda will be left
alone.”
“Yes,” she said, “I will go.
all, I shall be putting myself under obh
cation to nobody. I shall only be earn¬
ing my living.”
So she went back, and Belinda receiv¬
ed her brusquely, but with a kindness
that went to the poor girl’s heart.
“Are the quarries very largeV” she
asked, wistfully, when she had been at
the old farmhouse about a month.
“Never beard. ”
“Were you never there ?”
“Bless your heart, child, no 1”
“Does Mr. Bruce often come home ?”
“He’s at home now,” said the spinster.
“At home ?”
“Why, yes ; only he’s staying down at
the tavern. He’s a sort of notion tha I
you don't want to see him here. ’

“Well?”
“I should say yes !”
“Then it’s a Iwrgain,” said he, quiet
ly, “if you think you can put up with an
unfashionable old fellow like me—such a

I Site raised her innocent young lips for
■ the betrothal kiss.

have learned to know you as you really
are—the noblest anti liest of men.”
And Mr. Bruce never went back to the
quarries after that.
Atmlysia of & Cigar
To the world iu general, a cigar is
