Aon w a typical ctnintry nmlden. roar, fair-haired, and pUimp, hot to ny contmou-idnce, Mary llolly wa taller nd more slender, with large dark eye, a kin tlmt wa tnUKittntly pale, and a awvet, seriou mouth. Her tlreos waa far plainer than that ot her companion, but there wan a cer tain style In every fold and plait that was laokiitjr In Ann". Oh," cried the latter breathleiuily, "vlou't walk so fast, Mollyl 1H atop a minute and look around you at your own ancestral acre!" "My own ancestral acres!" Mary linitp.nl her thottlders. "It's all rock and vtoodlaud, wo far as I can we; aud the old house i ready to tumble down at the tint gust of wind. Oh dear, there's an eud of mv plana about tak lug boanlor and making a little niouey! No boarder with any regard for hi tversonal safety would evA' come to Holly Hill." Side by aide the two girls sat tlowa on the doorstep of the old nmnsloii. Above their head frowned an Impos ing row ot Ionic columnit; the porch floor wtw rotted through lu more than one place; the root of the little conser vatory at the south end wa little more thau a skeleton of weatherworn lieama, and the shutter swung and freaked in the wind. 1 " It 'wonld take." said Mary Holly, looking despairingly alniut her "it would take at least two hundred pound to put IhU place Into anything like tlecettt repair. And where am I to get such a smu, I should like to know 1 can't even sell the place. Nobody would buy it. 1 did think I could make a living by the old home, but now that I have beheld It "aud she tlnUhed the sentence by a despairing gesture. "Oh, Ann.I'veseen quite enough of my ancestral hall! Let us go home!" Ann Philpott'a attempt at consola tion were in vain. Oh, don't talk to me!", said Mary, swinging through the scented thicket of sweet-fern with more ot a disinherit ed princess's gait than ever. "I am a fauier. a bcL'gar.

Your great-uncle was a rear admiral, and your great-graudmother on the mother's side was a baron's daughter. " "Much good that does me," said Mary scornfully. "I couldn't go beg gingto my far-away relatives if (would, and I wouldn't if I could. I've some pride left. Oh, Aon, don't you know of somebody who wants something done for them, so that 1 can earn my bread?" Ann meditated as she took down the pasture bars to secure a short cut down into the valley. Squire Sccor wanted more hay hands he bad told her father so that morn ing but Mary Holly could not 0 out and drive a mowing-machine around a forty-acre lot. Mrs. Lydwkcr was iu need of a stronir irirl fo'r imneral house" vnnrlr. but Murv would hnrdlv come under the denomination of "strong" for such purposes as soft-soap making, and the wasniiig fur a family of nine boys. Something will certainly turn up," said' Ann hopefully. "Oh, there Is 1 light in the living-roora! Someone has come in, and mother has lit the big lamp. I wonder who it can bcP Oh, it's only Miltiadci Green." Miltiades Green was a nclghlmr, a tall, stalwart young farmer with hcalthy.sunburncd face and kindly blue eyes. "It's mother," said ho. "She's down with diphtheria, and the doctor wants you to write to your cousin, the t ruined nurse up in town. He says she's got to have someone that is thoroughly relia ble to tnke care ot her." "Ah, Miltiades!" cried Ann "what pity! Is it really diphtheria? Hut who is to do the housework?" "Oh. I can manage that myself," said Miltiades, "if only I could get the nurse. ' . . ' ' ' . . "I'll write at once," said Ann. "Or, better still, I'll go for her myself. Hut she comes expeuslve,Miltiadus,a pound week." "I don't care for the expense,", said the farmer; "though I know mother will fret alwiit It. lint she must have the best of care." ' '(Is that your Miltiades Green?" said AfnrY THIS.

Hut you haven't aid It all, eMie's golu' to do more tor us, even, than she baa done. She's jroln' to stay her altogether." "What!" cried old Mrs. Green. "She ha promised to lie my wife." aid Milttadea, mtttlng one strong arm tenderly around tho sletttler waist of the trained nurse. "Lit, mother, what do you say to that?" "Not If you object" 1d tbe glrl.her quick eye reading the change In Mra. Green's' fet, almost as If they were the letter of the alphabet. "I will enter no family where 1 am nut welcome," "It ain't thai, my dear," said Mr fireen, fumbling uueitsllr with her stH'ctaele. "Welcome! If you was the tjtieeti you eouldu't be -we comer. Hut 1 ' alway had a notion I'd like Miltinde to ninn-v another woiiian." The tall girl in Vtttek drew back from Milttatlvs' embrace. "You never told me," she said quick ly, "that you were engaged." . "No more I ain't" remonstrated Miltiades. "Oh.mother, what a scme you're p'Uiug me Into with aglrl we've "never eifher of us scent Listen, Try pliena. For all that dear little mother of itiitte look so plain and homespun, she's a tleal of pride in her, ami she' alwavs planned for me to marry Mi Holly .the jadv who Inherits Holly Hill. She's a friend of Ann riillpuU'. and mother thinks I may chance to got ae qualnted with her' some day. They any she' pretty ami aceomtdlshed. aud she has grand relations, and lite Holly Hilt property Join on to our farm ' "And I'm sure'" struck In tho old lady, "that she'd like Miltiades It alio were to see him." "So am I," murmured the trained nurse. "Aud there ain't no flue lady a, bit too good for MiHiadea," added the eager mother No, indeed, there lsn't.2 said the girl.

"Yea, she shallP' cried out the girl, falling on her knees beside the old lady, and hiding her face in her lap, w hile the rosy blushes mounted to tim very roots of her hair. "And you w ill have to marry Miss Ho)tv,ttftcr!l,Miltlados, for I am Mary Holly 1 Oh. please to forgive mo, for 1 have becu deceiving you all along." And she told them the whole story, half laughing, half crying, "I'm heiress to nothing at all," she said, "but a few barren acres and a tumble-down house, Hut, such us it ia, If Miltiades will have me " "it don't make a pln's-worth of dif ference tb me," said the sturdy young farmer. "It's you I love, anil you 1 "oau to have, whether you cull "your self Mary llelly or Tryphena Smith." And old Mrs. Green declared that she never was so happy in all her life' The Tool of Aaiatlo Workmen. ' One more illustration of the singe of advancement which has been reached by the mechanical geniuses of Amasia 1 will borrow from a culler's shop, lte member that it is the best work of men who are In the full heat nf the strug gle for life that we are untieing. These cutlers have to compete In the streets of their city with the men of Shotllctd, And this is the device that they have becu tililu to originutc as the climax of ingenious machinery for the sharpeu log of knives. They have a grindstone mounted 011 an axle lixed upou tho platform of the little stall where they do their work. A rone is passed three or four time nrmiud tho axle of the grindstone, and out in the middle of the narrow street, In front of the cut ler's shop, stands a man with one end ot the rope lu each hand, grave ly pulling away. When he pulls the right baud the grindstone revolve toward him; when he pulls tint left hand It revolves from him. Ur the grindstone aiptnU tho knife-grinder crosslegged, obliged to turn the knife over every moment as the stone changes its course of revolution. There is something pathetio In the spectacle of these men who have wrestled with the problem of changing a reciproca ting motion to a rolury one; have wrested doubtless as valiantly as Kdi son with his mighty problem ot electro-dynamics, and then have given up the problem as insoluble, like tho probfi fern ot tho flying machine, and have settled down to such devices as the most favorable basis ou which they can contest their market with the aggressive Kiiropciins.
