H-t tho fashion, I don't doubt,"
She looked up at .John Pare merrily,
but could not interpret tho look in his
( ves; ho, tnfcine; it lor ginatei that It
was an expreekitm of admiration, shv
pnreued the ..me strain :
"Juat freth from i'.ui". i am sure
your wife would l:ke that, frhall 1 tiy
it on for you ? "
Wa'al, yes, I can tell hotter how it
will look then, Now it. looks just like
a di.sh."
"There, it goes this way," and Josie
pitched tlm little thing over her rosy
face, tied the strings in ,' bi Imw knot,
aid iwept down the length of thi; room.
" Don't you like it?"
" Wa'al, its kind o' party, but its
awful queer, ain't it John?"
John thua appealed to could only an
swer that lio "knew nothing in the
world about women's bunneta," and
took up hi-s reverie, whatever it was,
jtist where it wns broken ofl. 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.
Ife irinrml.ercd that loiif? ao Aunt
l$ethey wan wont to twiMt. her hnir with
the Hiitnt) energy that dietlagoJaked ail
her inovemontai and that thi.i operation
rcMulu-d in a hard knot at the bark of
lier head, like a door knob handle,
Which certainly would not harmonize
with (he etipelcHK head diCHHi-H.
liiHtiiH it tH brow wna OTCroaat with
Ihta thought, (he pain girl canio near
Uncle Able, bcr cheek H bbiHhing um nhe
did mo in deliauce of the other girle,
holding in her band a plain feyiorii
bonnet, trimmed with rioJet ribbon.
She wore a mourning dreMx, and the
plain broach at her throat held a I I
ef ci ay hair.
' I think thin might auit yon, i.ir,"
she naid. " 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."
' Wa'al, now, tell m-, for I have got
mo Imtliered with these thingn that I
don't know one from t'other. I want
tO get a bonin t for Je tney, ami I mean
to. Now j.-Kt tell me if you Would like

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

So they partod, and tho passers-by
little dreamed of all that bad boon said.

will be a nice bit of property coming to
