'Hie landscape spread ont hefnre him was one of re markable hcanty, but he seemed un conscious of its charms. ICeklcl Pratt, owner of tho finest farm, tlie host horses, nnd the biggest barns in all the country round, was calculating. This lavonje mental exercise absorbed iiim, Jv7.okiel was short in stature and thick et. Jlis small, keen eves glanced shrowdly from beneath sliaggy brows, and his small ears were over-shadowed bv bushy locks of black abundant liair. Ezokiel's features were harmonious. He was accounted a good-looking man. He owed no man a penny. J5y his neighbors lie was considered'ricli. Kzeklel had been twice married, nis mother was at pref-ent keeping liouse for him, and taking care of his children. They were expecting company at Ezekiol's house. l'.ekiel "was hurrying to meet the train this bright, still morn ing in early summer. Kzekiel's thoughts were busy. "Sne never would have quit teaching and come up here If she hadn't a partic ular idee, I calk'late. She ain't the girl to act without a motive," and he reined the grays around a curve of the river road, and at the light touch of the whip they sped on towards the Ossegatchee depot. Kzckicl was on his way to meet his pretty young sister-in-law, Priscilla, who had written and asked his mother if it would be convenient to them to have her come and stay witli them a while. She had closed her school, and if they did not write her to the con trary, she would come and spend a little time among the hills. She wanted lo .see the children and the old place. To day wns the time appointed for her com ing. I'Mi Kzekiel had done a great deal oficnterwl bv the side door. calculating within a few davs. He made a mental abstract of these calcu lations as he drove along the river's winding eourse. "Just eleven months next week it will be sinoe Ellen died. Priscilla came and took care of her then. Frissv showed herself a powerful worker at that time, considering the genteel way she has. she never shirkwla particle. Shedidu't expect to find Ellen s sick, she said. Likely enough she wouldn't have come if she had known there was so muoh to do. Still Trissy was always willing. Prissy is one of the willing kind." "Whoa! there, whoa! Silas. Friskv creature, ain't you? Y ant a tight rein? Guess Ifeekiel Pratt can give you that. Guess thore ain't much lie has control of that he can't rein in. "Xow, Ellon was just about as frisky as that 'ere colt, when lgot acquainted with her. She was a pretty girl; always smiling and saying a smart wool; al ways ready to go or to come, to laugh or to cry. My sakes, what a spirit she had! She had a power of working, too; I calk'late on that. "We had not been married two years before she sobered right down wonderful. There wasn't a better working woman anywhere in the country, if I do sav it. Slip had sink I spells, but she worked right on, summer and winter. She was the best wife in Part'' anywhere around.

' Tlie grays here struck the old plank road, and Ezekiel, whose stiffened joints rebelled at tho jolts, braced himself and drew in tne grayc. .

"I calk'late," said Ezekiel,"that things are working pretty smooth." This calculation ofEzekiel's was made about a week after the date of our first chapter. "I never saw a girl take hold of things so. She's making over her own dresses for Mag, audcuttingovcr my old clothes for Sam. She fixed up their rooms with pictures; that's nonsense, to be sure, but then it goes to.show which way the wind blows, and she's as pleas ant as a basKet 01 cinps to moiner. 1 don't care nbotit so much talk myself, but then she'd get over that, I expect. 1 , never sec ner settle down and tai:e 10 , gathering up the reins, "that Miss ! el work more contented.

I call that pretty handsome. I shan't Hatter her any. I don't believe in such things. She's a sensible cirl and knows what it is to get such a homeas this. She helps i mother considerable with the house, x must return to-morrow," said work, hut she'd take hold if she had an , priSsy. "Circumstances make it ncces interesr." 1 snrv." Tlie early summer days sped on with their dew, and glow, anil shine, and pcrf limed llower-balls and bird songs. Prissy made constant paradise for the children. Her sunny content brimmed over on all about her. Prissy freshened up the whole house. "I don't think much of these nick nacks, and of rummaging up old things for curtains and cushions, though the parlor docs Iook considerable as liien used to have it before she got poorly. Hut then I put up with the fancy do ings, for I calk'late it shows, you see, what she would do in time if she was j ..tt,i ,10 jJee tnat iriwy had been lay mistress, and had an interest on the ....,.n.i.... n cni.i i.-...i :i ti.t uf. r-.. t jtiiitt tn. n .t..ni 1 T V : ti j - fa""" i t tio. I ain't a coins to act as though I was so dreiTul pleased, if she does take pains. I never did by Ellen." CHAlTKIt III. Prissy came down stairs one bright, royal morning. Dew lay on the clover. The birds were holding a grand concert. l'nssy opened tloors and windows, and lei in noons oi sunsnine. t.raiuima nan had a bad night, and Prissv had coaxed her to take an extra imp while she took up the tlutios of the day. "I calk'late it's about time to make my arrangements," soliloquized Jize-1 Kiel, as nc went towards tno stables, I "The weeks thev are slinninir awav ami sue might ue as well taking an in tcrest in iicnti earnest." Old Mrs. (Soodenoueh would nrobablv have conllrmed Ezekiel'.s opinion, if she unit necu jiriviiegcti, uy reiuarKiiig tnni this was literally the kind of "interest" l'rissys sister nau taken. "To-night, when the cows are milked," mentally continued Ezekiel, "I'll ask her to go over to the" grave yard, and we'll talk the matter over." "When the sun hung low in the west, and a brooding hush was iqioii every thing, Ezekiel stood leaning, with folded arms, against tlie fence, and looked away over the big- meadow and the wheat field. "I calk'late she's been expecting it before. Hut 'twasn't best to be too fast. It's well enough to have it understood that a woman can't stcpintouchahomc as this every day," and he walked slow ly toward the house. "Hilloa! who's that?' The ejaculation was forced from Eze kiel by the unusual sight of a spirited bay reined up to tho gate, and a gentle manly looking parson alighted from a fT'- .1 . .

Ezekicl took theshortcr route through the south barn, n-nnlml lbi liouso rmil "o one met him and told hint that a stmugcr awaited him. Kzckicl was 8ttri)rlsed at this. He made his way through to the cool parlor that I'risiy kept garnished witli llowers and period icals. was Hastings;. Ezekiel's deaf ar was turned towanls the speaker, and the words "my friend" cscajied him. "He introduced himself to her while he was waiting for me," soliloimized Ezekiel. "Like enough now he's in the raiiroad company's interest and they want sonic of my hind." A few general remarks were made and still Prissy remained In the room and joined in the conversation, and the stranger did not introduce his errand. "If you want to see mo on any busi ness,'' nnaiiy remarket! Ezekiel, when a pause occurreii, "I suppose we can step into the next room,'- glancing as . . prj..

The experience was n novel one. He walked out under the elms. "1 calk'late he's principal of some school or other. Perhaps he wants to engage PrI.-sy for ft teacher. He talked about vacation.

"You were speaking about vacation," he remarked; "and as you are leaving these parts for good, I thought I might as well ask whether you was trying to engage Priscilla to teach tho coming j'ear; because, you sec," and Ezekiel hesitated and stammered in view of a binding engagement on Prissy's part to teach, "she's hardly in a situation to decide." i believe." said Mr. Hastings, slowly u. r ii.ifi.i ti T7.l.:..lta 1 31 1 lillt.il, i..uiivi u iiivii- j diately, hut Prissy was no more visible that liight.

"Well, now," said Ezekiel, "I had been afraid that stranger had made an engagement with you." "Yes," said Priscilla, without looking up; she was pulling a morning-glory to pieces. "There has been an engage ment between Mr. Hastings and uy self for two years or more. Wo are to be married next month." Ezekiel rose abruptly, clapped his hat on his head, and went to soo the field hniuls.
