But looked idly in the long mirror opposite, he saw Josie linking signs to another girl, and ho soon found they were amusing themselves vastly at the per plexity of their customer. Ho saw, too, a pale, piict girl, with smooth brown h;tir, look up from her work indignant ly, and ho rather saw than heard bar say, " For tdiamo ! " and grow orimson ivti she ipoke, Hlfl own f.ico Hushed a little as he booonie aware that Uncle A in 1 was be ing ma le the butt of their jokes --good Uncle Abel, who was looking so admir ihgly at the fabrics incompreliensiblo to him, his old heart only ft ill of thought how ho should make his present worthy of the patient soul for which it was in tended. Then John was greatly perplexed ; for us be suid truly, ho knew nothing aliotit all that mysterious and bewilder ing arrangement of dress that ho saw every day. Still he knew that Aunt Betsey's spare locks, thinly sparkled with gray, were not dressed in modern style, and he could not fe the life of him see wherealiouti on that dear old bead any of thoHe jjvprrieaor fanchoilH would reat.

" If your wife don't dreei hei hair in thole faahiooa. tbeae boa note would not dti at all. Thie in rich and plain, ami Otl cr. the btok of the ha.l and neck."

Outside the disir Johtt turned to leave his uncle, and loi,ed as shy as a girl as he said, ' lt'a all light, l inle Abel. You've found a new honnot and I've (bond an old friwt;il." I 'nele Abel held his hand fast, and looking a moment without peeking in the young man's even, said : 'She's a BBOtherlcus girl, John." " I'ncle Abel I" and .lohn turned an grily ewer, or ould have done ro if tho detaining hand had not held kim with a grasp which sixty years had not Weakened. "l,ook here, my boy, I meant no offence. None of my blood turn villains," he added ptoudly ; "but vou see she's young and putty and fur lorn, and may ho, if you see too much of her, she might get to thinkiu' mOfU of you than would bo good for hvr, and if you ain't in earnest guess it would break her heart. Shako hands with your uncle, my boy, I mean no harm ; but promised 'i.ia when she was on her dying bed that I would alius try to give you good advice, and the last words she spoke, says she, 'Abel, take care of my boy.' " "My doar, Liud uncle, I thank you indeed I do for ull your kindness, but I could not boar to think that you should misjudge mo. I knew Amy long ago, when her parents werp both living, and site had ail that wealth could give. X loved her then in a quiet way, but 1 was too poor to tell her so. Then came reverse and death, and in her poverty and prido the yirl hid her self from me until now. she tried to earn her bread by her accomplishments but failed, and gladly took this moans to do so. Now, if I can win her ibr my wile, I ha bring Airs. John I biro to see you some time this summer may J, Undo Abel ?" So they partod, and tho passers-by little dreamed of all that bad boon said. "Wa'al, wu'al, if tilings don't turn out queer P soliloquized Uncle Abel, homeward bound, wilh a bandbox placed on tho Mat before hi in. "To think how near 1 camo gettin Itsey ono of them gipseys. Why, tdio would haye laughed week about i. And then to think that painted piotur of a gal was making gaino of mo all tho while. And the other one, with her gentle way, taking the trouble to tell a stupid fellow liko mo what was the right thing to buy. I guess she would make our .John a good wife ; and after Betsey and mo have passed away there will be a nice bit of property coming to John, and that'll help him along. How pleased Aunt Betsey was to be sure when the old man gave her the new bonnet ! How fair ami young she looked in the fresh ubbons and soft blonde around her fnOJ I And how.hhe laughed at the idea of wearing "one of them .li- l covern on her head !"
