i Aunt Diana : The Sunshine of the Family OltAPTKR NX. fContInued.1 The next few weeks passed happily for Alison; she had her dearest friend with her, nnd what metre could she nsk for? Aunt Dinnn had settled down quite comfortably In her niche, us though sho were one of the family. Without mak ing herself unduly prominent, or In any way trenchinjf on the young housekeeper's privilege, she yet contrived, with quiet tnct, to lighten Alisons burden and pro cure her the rest sho so much needed. Alison resumed her walks with Roger, while Aunt Diana nmused Missie or read to Mr. Merle. During the day 'Alison was too muoh engaged to enjoy much of Aunt Diana's company, but Miss Carrlng ton insisted that she should resume her painting lessons as soon as Missie was atleto be with her father: and she also contrived that she and Alison should have one of their old refreshing talks as often as possible. Nothing rested Alison so much as intercourse with Miss Carrin; Ions strong, vigorous mind. Aunt Diana quickly found her way into Missie's wayward little heart, anil she soon turned her influence to good nccounr. une afternoon, when little, av though she feared how her words might be received, for Miss Car rington had n horror of gossip "I am half afraid that there Is n now trouble In store for poor Annn." "You mean Eva's marriage. I think that will be n good thing for her: there is no real sympathy between the sisters." "No, I meant something quite different. I have been nt Mnplewood a great deal this veek, nnd Dr, Forbes Is always there. I am afraid, from what 1 see, that Anna will soon have a stcp-fathor, nnd, Aunt Dr In n voice of strong disgust "Dr, luirbcs la such nn ugly, disagreeable man 1 tuust say I do wonder at Mrs. Hard- wick." "Do you, Allle? Well, wonder sits well on young people, I hate to see them taking everything as a matter of course, lour wonder will not hurt you, my dear." "Itut If It Rhould be true, Aunt Dl?" very solemnly, ""There are no fools like old fools,' Allle. and there Is certainly no neeount- 1ns for tastes. Now, In my opinion, one husband Is enough for any woman; but I no not pretend to regulate the world. Don't trouble your little head about it. I have r. notion that, step-father or no step-father, Anna will have her share of Gods sunshine. And Miss Carrington smiled n queer little smile that mystified Alison, but she said no more, There were some things of which Miss Carrington never spoke, to young people. She often said: "A girl's mind ought to b as clear as crystal and hold no re- a-cis u crystal reflects everything. I wish older people would remember that,' And nothing displeased her more than the careless talk of some mothers. "They uon't seem to care what they put Into a you parting, and Roger will bo with n."

All Alison's ikmxs aud pictures had been moved ; Aunt .Dianas loving hands had evidently been employed in her service no one else would have arranged the bowl of dark chrysanthemums on the little round table, and the pretty, fresh crctoune on the conch and easy chair spoke of the same taste. Alison's voice trembled as she thanked tussle. "You ought not to have done it. Mnhel dear; it is very good of you, but I would ratner have waited until you were really wen. "4 always meant to do it," returned Missie, solemnly. "I thought about it every night, and then I made up my mind to speak to Aunt Diana, and she kuu hue would help me. Have you seen me Deautitul illumination she has paint- i ior your' Yes, Alison had seen it. He- not weary in well-doing" that vaf the teit that Miss Carrington had cuoseu ior m due season we shall reap, if we faint not." Well, was not Alison reaping a rich harvest? Would she ever t cjient that she had come back to her own people for loving service and minis try, when she had won Missie's affection. nnd found her way to her father's heart? That he loved and trusted her, that she was growiug daily dearer to him, Alison, with all her humility, could not donht- but Missie was still his petted darling the very suffering she had caused him brought them nearer together. It was a lovely sight. Miss Carrington thought, to see Missie sitting for hours patiently beside her father's couch read ing or talking to him. But for her aunt's tigiinnt care her liealth wOuld have been permanently injured by her devotion to him; before she left she made Missie faithfully promise to take her daily walk and to resume her singing. "You must leave something for Allie to do," she said, with a smile; "I can not sanction monopoly. We must watch against sejfishness, dear child, even in our best actions: we must not be over- exacting In our affection love sometimes compels one to efface one's self for love's sake.' Aiina was a constant visitor 'to The Holms during Miss Carrington's stay; tiiey had taken a great fancy to each other. Anna told Alison privately that she thought Miss Carrington was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen. "I don't know about her features," Alison bad answered; "I don't think peo ple consider her handsome, but it is a dear face, and that is all I care about." "I am never tired of looking at her,' returned Anna, with girlish enthusiasm; up with rubbish.' CHAPTER XXI. Miss Carrington took a great deal of notice of Roger, and sought every oppor tunity to be with him: she had a great respect for his character, which, she said, wn a most uncommon one. "Roger differs from the young men of hi generation." she said once to Alison; "he cares little for other people's opin ions, unless he knows them to be In the right mere criticism does not influence hi in in the least." She took a great Interest In his work, and made herself acquainted with the details of the business. Roger wondered a little at the quiet pertinacity with which she questioned him: saie even followed hhn to the mill, and sat In the timber ynrtl watching the men at work. After a few conversations with Itogcr she spoke very seriously to her brother- in-law; she told him Roger was very young for such a responsibility. "He is a good lad, and would wear himself out in your service, Alnslie, and that without a word of complaint, but he looks too old and careworn for his age; you must remember he is only two-and-twenty yet he must have his play time, like other lads." "But how am I to help him, Diana?' asked Mr. Merle, fretfully. "It is not iny fault that I am lying here like a log. The boy must work, or what would be come of us all?" 'My dear Ainslie, you misunderstand me." she replied, gently. "Of course Roger must work, but surely he needs help for so large a business. Have you put no one in your last manager's place?" "No, not yet." he returned, evidently struck by her practical good sense. "Rog er never proposed It, and I was too in dolent to think about It; but there Is Murdoch, a Scotchman he has been with us a long time, and he Is an honest fel low. I dare say he would be glad of a rise in his salary; he has a large young family. I will ask Roger what he thinks of putting Murdoch in the managers nlace. I think he would watcn over our Interests." "1 wish ypu would do so," she returned earnestly; "Roger is rather too hard worked for his age. He tells mo he has no time for cricket or tennis, or for skat inz in winter. I I have set my heart Ainslie, on his bringing Alison for a long visit to Moss-side in the spring. ' lou will be better by that time, and if you have a manager Roger will be able to e.n joy a holiday; he tells me he has not left Chesterton for two years. "I am afraid I have been very remiss and neglected his interests," returned Mr, Merle, rather sadly.

"Missie can do without me, hut Roger can not leave nt present there Is such a pressure of business at the mill; nnd If you do not mind, I would rather wait for him." Miss Carrington's reply wns curt, and to the point : "Walt for Roger, by all tnfnna- 1 nm tmt vmmrv unnnirli tn fnni deferring an unexpected pleasure, or old And secin' where we mtss'd the way, and couldn't see where to drive.

There is daugee In hurrying on things too much; we need not crowd our lives. I will have neither of you until you can put your cares In your pockets, and tnko the full meanlug of these sweet, sunshiny days." Aunt Diana's unselfishness and patlcnca were rewarded when at last the desired letter from Alison arrived. Its bright sentences sounded to her like a ripple of soft laughter from youthful lips. "We are coming, coming, coming 1" Could any repetition be sweeter than that? It was one of the loveliest evenings la where wo might have been. And many a corner we'd turn'd that just to a uuurrol led. When I ought to've held my temper, and driven straight ahead: And the moro I thought it over tho moro these memories came, And the more I stnick the opinion that I was the most to blame.

Miss Carrington had hinted that she preferred receiving her guests in her own porch uho hated the bustle and noise of a railway station. But still Alison's dark eyes would scan the platform and tho sunny station room, half in delightful recognition and half In girl ish curiosity. "Allle, who Is that hnndsomo fellow jaf t getting down from the dog cart?" But," soys I, "we're too far along to tako another track.

There is something liar nioa'ous. too, in her voice, and even In her walk; she nevfr jars on one; I am sure there are no discords in her nature.' Alison repeated this speech ; she thought it so prettily worded, and so true. But Miss Carrington shook her Wad over It aud let it pass; she knew much better how the chords of her being had once been jangled roughly out of tune. "No discords In her nature !" when every note had been dumb and tuneless until the Divine Hand had brought the jarred chords Into harmony. "When .Cod's will Is our will, then we shall know peace," she said to herself; "I have learned that now." But she spoko very kindly of Anna, and praised Alisons discernment in the choice of a friend. "She is a simple, lovable little soul," bhe said once; "it is quite a treat In this decided age to meet wlfh a girl who distrusts her own judgment, and be lievea other people's experiences before her own," "Anna Is really very clever, Aunt Dl." "I nm sure of that, my dear; and she 6hows her cleverness by not advertising Jier best wares. In talking to her one is not dropping over, buckets Into empty wells there is good wuse and a clear knowledge of factH at the bottom, Liv Ing in an uncongenial atmosphere has make her shy and awkward: she is like a Come, now, that is generous of you," she replied, brightly; I shall owe you a good turn for that. Supposing I promise to come and spend my Christmas and New Year with you; shall you care to have me?" "Try me," was his only reply. But he said it with one of his rare smiles, and Miss Carrington felt she would be wel come. The prospect of having Aunt Diana for Christinas, and still more the promise of a long visit to Moss-side In tfie spring, went far to reconcile Alison to the part ing when the day came for Miss Carring ton to leave them, but when the last hour arrived Alison's Jieart failed her a little. "You must not look so pale over it, Allle," Miss Carrington said to her anx lously; "you know If I had the power I would willingly take you back with me." Yes, but I could not leave papa lying there. There can be no question now about my duty; It is a comfort to know that." "Yes, dearest, your place must be here a little longer; they could not spare you to me yet. Do you know, I bonet lines doubt whether the old days will over come back." "Oh, Aunt Di I Do you mean I shall never be able to live with you again?" asked Alison, in an dlanntd voice. Miss Carrington looked at her in a poor little plnnt brought too suddenly Into strangely moved way. the light ; in another year or so she will be less pallid and depressed : she will have learned to believe In herself a little." "I nm afraid you think her plain," ob served Alison, anxiously; for her artistic taste made her lay rather an undue Im portance on beauty; "but really, when she talks and brightens up she Is quite pretty." "She lias a lovely look sometimes. You are wrong, Allle, I do not think her. plain. Missie's apple blossom face makes her a little colorless, but there is a dell- "I do not think you will live at The Holti's always; Missie will replace you by and by, I am quite sure we shall be together, even If It be not In the old way. Don't look so perplexed, Allle, darling; in this life, with Its manifold changes and chances, things are seldom quite the same." 'You ami I will never be different I am convinced of that," exclaimed Alison, not in the least understanding the drift of Aunt Diana's strange speech. "Oh, Aunt Pi, how delicious the spring will be! To think that we shall be rowing cato white rose bloom about tier that Is on the rjver ngalu to Long Island, to not without beauty.
