BY FLOBKNCB M'CALLM.
It was almost nine o'clock on a
breezy October morninff when Miaa
Sophronia Use opened the neat little
gate in front of Albert Stanning'a new
house. There was a broad walk lead
ing up to a porch where a few great
purple clematis blossoms upon a trel
lised vine showed that the deceitful
October sun was coaxing out flowers
which did not belong to his time.
Miss Sophronia heard the slow creak
of a rocking-chair as she crcsed the
perch, and saw through the screen
door a pretty young woman sitting
with a book in her lap, reading. Her
blue calico wrapper was unbuttoned at
the throat, her feet were untidily
dressed, and her pretty, fair hair was
gathered into a frowsy kntot. She rose
in some confusion when Bhe saw Miss
Sophronia, tossed her book aside and
pushed toward her guest another
rocker.
While the visitor removed her prim
old maid's bonnet and her cape, she
noted the untidiness of the room,
where the breakfast dishes were piled
in a unsightly heap on the table, and
flies held high carnival.
"I came up to help you, Cissy," she
said. "I noticed as I passed Gorham'a
that the men were pitching from the
last stack. They will be here before
noon. Have you got your dinner un
der way?" The young woman colored
and her eyes, which were not blue, but
a yellowish gray, grew dull.
"They are not coming here or at
least they are going to board at Father
Stanning's."
"Then it is true."
"What, pray?"
The old maid rocked tranquilly and
produced her knitting.
"O, I heard some of the cirls at the.
society saying that you would not
dare attempt to get dinner for the
threshers; that your finnicky town
ways might fool Albert, but you were
too smart to try them on with the
threshers. You know I do not pry into
your affairs from a motive of idle cu
riosity, Cissy, and I wantyou to tell me
why you are acting in this way.
"Well, Albert thinks I can't cook."
This was said with an elaborate affec
tation of carelessness, but it did not
deceive Miss Sophronia.
"And yet I have often heard him
boast of your good housekeeping your
cooking especially."
"O, yes at first. liut now we are
all wrong. I hate that sort of men
that go about with the steam thresh
er! I shudder to think of Jim Finn,
for instance, coming into my house. I
know that they will spit over every
thing and eat like wild beasts. And
when I said so Albert got mad and
said he would take them to his moth
er's, where they would get something
fit to eat."
"Quite naturally," murmured Use.
"Aunt Sophy! You were mother's
friend and I owe a lot to you, but 1 am
not going to bear that! 'Quite nat
urally' indeed! I think he was horrid."
"Cissy, did you know Albert was a
farmer when you married him?"
"You know I did."
"Then I suppose what I have heard
is true; that you have no practical
good sense at all; that you supposed
farming to be all sunset, moonrise,
starshine, dewy apple blossoms, etc.''
"You know I am not such a fool! but
I do not see the necessity of our being
brought in contuct with Jim Finn."
"And these men who do not know
how to feed themselves according to
your notion, are the very men, if I am
not mistaken, who hauled and cut
every stick of wood you uurnea that
winter your father died. I am ashamed
of you, Cecelia Manning!"
No answer save the slow creak of the
young wife's rocker.
"You have Iw-en used to them all
your life. It was that year with that
lillc, do-nothing set at your aunt's
which hui filled your silly head with
false ideas. You are unkind to Albert's
mot her, and the next thing you know
you'll lie unkind to Mliert."
"I'm afraid I am that now tome
times.' "Well, a sin confessed ia half re
pented of. Oo comb your hair, and
come and help me. I am going to save
your credit by getting dinner for those
men." She began to gather up the
dishes while Cissy ran to her room to
Improve her toilet, calling out direc
tions to Miaa Sophronia from time to
time.
"There's a snow pudding cooling in
the cellar."
"Snow fiddlesticks! Yon want about
a d.itcti pies, meat enough for a regi
ment, a peck of potatoes and every
thing else In proportion. I lurry, child."
Claay came forth presently with
smooth hair, a ruffled apron and un
ruffled demeanor; she waa neatly shod
and the yellow "ght In her rye bad
given rdaee to elesr. c""l prayneas.
"Yon straighten np that disgraceful

iently use, passed into the dining room
where a long table was laid, as exquis
ite in every appointment as if the
president of our great republic had
been an expected guest. His wife was
flitting about adding some finishing
touches to the table, and Miss So
phronia was seated near a window with
her knitting work in her hand, and a
book upon her knee, knitting and read'
ing as was her habit. Albert clutched
his wife as she passed him. "So you
didn't get mad at what I said this
morning? I've felt like hanging my'
self to a sour-apple tree ever since."
"Yes, I was. Mad all through. And
don't you ever say such things to me
again. You and I to quarrel after
all!"
Then she gave him a kiss, basted the
browning fowls, turned the sputtering
ham and thanked Qod she was alive,
and that Albert was alive to love her.
At twelve, before the last stroke had
died away, the new dinner bell hung
upon the top of a white oak pole by
the well sounded forth its welcome
summons; for to be "behind hand with
dinner" in the Pretty Bob neighbor
hood was all as bad as to provide but
one kind of pie.
Somehow as the men trooped in they
did not seem quite so repulsive as a like
crowd had been at harvest time. They
were boisterous, bandying coarse jokes,
making fun. Cissy knew, of what they
were pleased to call her "pernickerty"
ways, and her "moonshine meals," but
she merely smiled. She even hung up
the fifth clean towel without a sign of
disgust, and by the time they were
seated at the table she owned to her
self that even Jim Finn might be
worse, for had she not seen him fondle
her pet kitten, while waiting his turn
at the washbowl?
She poured the fourth cup of coffee
for poor, trembling, or'nary neighbor
Jones who ate his pie with his knife,
held within two inches of the point,
and drew his great, hairy hand across
his face in lieu of a pocket handker
chief without once looking across at
Albert. She asked Tim Lewis, who
was more than suspected of making
midnight visits to his neighbors' hen
roosts, how his lame b oy was, and told
him not to forget to take a pocketful
of sweet apples home to him. The rest
of the men were neighbors, good hon
est men who knew better than to ask
the same man twice for a chew of to
bacco without offering a return of the
favor, who "belonged to church" and
did not swear except under great prov
ocation.
Midway in the meal Miss Sophronia
looked up from her book.
"I'd offer to help you, Cissy, but you
seem to be getting along better with
out me. 'Too many cooks,' you know,
'spoil the broth.'"
It would have done poor, tired Cissy
good to hear the remarks of the men as
they smoked their pipes under the oaks
in the back yard.
"That settles It," said one; "if I hear
the women pokin' any more jokes at
Al's wife, I'll shoot off suthin' that'll
settle era. I bain t met with such a
dinner since my mammy's day."
' Three kln'a of pie and a rnddln'l
That lays it over anything we've seen
yit Alknowed what he's about when
he married that town gal, now I
tell ye."
"Did you hear the Gorham gal tick
lln' about the dinner we'd git to-day?
I just wisht she could a-seen it!
"Them soggy apple dumplin's 'at we
had thar yistiday lays heavy on my
atummick yit," this from Tim Lewi;
"I drapped one on my foot an' it hurted
so I sort a klcked it inter the dooryard,
an' them pore chickens la fightin' over
it till plumb yit."
As soon as the bun of the thresher
was heard Mia. Sophronia bustled out
of her chair.
"Now for supper, and then dinner
to-morrow! We mustn't lose what
w e've gained. Two of the men will be
