"Why, my dearie," she cried, "I
thought you would lie waltzing at New

Saratoga before this
time!"
But Mattie shook
her goldeu-browu

"No," she said, "

Mattie, "But ploa4o let me come in.

Mrs. Oxweed. "Teaisjustredy. But,

"l won t be in thq way," said Mattie,
pleadingly. "You can tuck mo any

ret bedroom, Mrs. pxweed, that looks
out into the bough of tho cherry tree."
And you shall have it my dear, and
welcome," said Mrs. Oxweed. "But

"I remember them all," said Mattic
with sparkling eves, "except Mr. Haze l

times last year, didii t we:
"And every one qt em was dead m
lovo with you," snid Mrs. Oxweed.
"Oh, you needn't blush and look so
confused, Miss Maine; lU human na
ture, isn't it?"
And Mattic, resting on the big parlor
sofa where tho cooli green lights silted
through the maple boughs half an hour
later, could hear the voices of the
boarders at their tea.
"Miss Meredith ljack again?" cried
Mr. Jefferson. "Why, it will be a re

rea nair and a ltoman nose.
"xue prettiest gujt x ever saw in my
hie, said lieutenant cooper.
"Really,' exclairhcd Mr. Hazeltine,
aeouaintance. '
Mrs. Oxweed bridled and fluttered
wit;h pleasure. Years ago, before she
had married her firmer husband, she
had been Mattie Meredith's nurse, and
she loved tho girl still with almost ma
ternal tenderness.
"And you'll find every word they say
is true, Air. Hazeltine, said she. "Uut
dear me! things isr't as they used to
be. I'm afraid, from what Miss Mattie
has told me, that Mr. Meredith has had
bad luck with his investments. She
won't be an heiresl any longer, poor
dear!' I
"i.h.J said Mr. Uxwecu, pausing in
his task of carving cold lamb. "But
what will she do, Alary Ann?"
"What other folk- does, to be sure.'
said his wife, brlsklv. "Bless her
heart! she ain't onb lo sit down and
lament over spilled! milk. She told me
with her own lips that she had come
here to learn to dolhousework
"Ilousf-.vork, eh 3" said Mr. Oxweed.
"But I didn't s'poe as the young ladies
called that sort o thing genteel nowa
days. Painting oil cheenjv now, or
giving music lessons, or fine sewing"
. "Oxweed! hold vour tongue!" said
his wife. "Whatever Miss Mattie Mere
dith does will be right and proper. And
that's enough for yiu and me to know."
Mattio lay quita still on tho sola,
thinking. And as
she thought a curi-
ous smile came dimpling over her face,
"Perhaps it is lust as weU. after all."
she said to herself. '
m. 42.
When she joined tho little group on
the yeranda that evening, with the pur
plo dusk glooming - oyer the head of
Black Mountain, and the night-birds
whistling sweetly in the woods, her
welcome was various. Mr. Jefferson,
a tall, handsome man, who was sup
posed to be "well off," bowed low, but
a little formally. Mr. Davidson Dover's
spectacled gaze shone frigidly upon her,
as he glanced up from nis big "Com
mentary on tho Gospels."
"I hopo I see you well,!' said he. !
Mr. Laidlaw bowed, scraped and
dropped her hand almost as soon as he
had taken it, and retreated back into
tho parlor, murmuring something
about letters to write. Lieutenant
Cooper shook hands so cordially that
the pretty pink knuckles smarted full
live minutes afterwards, and tuen
seated himself as closely to her as the
rules and regulations of civilized so
ciety wourd permit. Mr. Hazeltino
paid somethincr polite, and retired into
a fch ado wed corner, doubtless to think
up "something lunny" lor tne new
scries of- lectures which he was going
to deliver la the Southwest that autumn.
Mattie Meredith spoko up, as soon as
Khe had established herscli on the set
tee, with the cat in her lap
"Mr. Jefferson," said she, "what do
girls do when they want to earn their
own livinr '
Mr. Jefferson twisted and turned in
his seat like an impaled beetle.
"Reallr," said ho, "you have con
suited a poor oracle, I I am not
cfipable of advising in such an emer
gency as this. Very sorry, of course,
but '
"Perhaps Mr. Dover could suggest
something," mischievously asked Mat
tie. "Oh, I assure you, nothing of the
kind," said Mr. Dover. "There's the
factories, you kno.w, and and Laid
law might have some idea "
"Oh, no; no ideas at all," said Mr.
Laidlaw. "The mosquitoes torment
mc to drrih We. I guess I'lltakemy
desk up str r-, -f tho company will ex
cuse me. ',
Lieutenant Cooucr said nothing; but
later on in the evening he proposed to
waiK aovrn to t'ic little spring in tho
WOOtll-J.
"The moon is just rising," he said.
"and really there is no dew to speak
of. ricasc come. Miss Meredith!"
So Mattie wrapped her white and gold
burnous around her, and walked with
him down tho shaded path, where they
had so often walked before.
But, close besido the spring, he
turned abruptly to her, and stopped.
"jViissijlereaiUi," said he, "we have
known each ther for some time now.
I'm only a poor naval officer, but I've
my pay, and there is always the pros
pect of promotion. It goes' to my heart
to hear you talk of earning your own
living a delicate girl like you. Let me
earn it lor you. 1 romise to become my
wife. For, indeed," he added in his
honest, straightforward way,- "I've
loved you ever since I met you here last
summer. As an heiress l should not
have ventured to ask you to share my
humble lot. But now "
"Oh, Lieutenant Cooper!" she began.
and then paused. - .. . . . .
"Xes, l know it seems presumptu
ous, said he. "lsut we ve a pretty
old homestead in Virginia, where your
lather and mother would be heartily
welcome. And l would worK
fingers to the bone to provide every
comfort for you and them, and Oh,
jiattie, is it possiDic that you can teacn
yourself to love me?"
"l might try," slyly murmured
Aiaiue. -mat is, u- .
And tlmn shrt found hprsrdf flnRnorl
in the arms of the man who had loved
her so long and so faithfully.
"But you're very much mistaken,"
sue added, after a little.
"Not in supposing that you love meP"
said the Lieutenant, in somo appre
hension.
"In believing that I am suclua pau-
no losses whatever. I came out here
to learn to do housework, because I've
