the widow and the xplnarer. and be
tbonjrht be aaw bla way Hear Three
daya later be returned and balled on
I be road opnualte to wher the farmer
waa hoelnic corn. The deaitm came
walking out to (he fence to any: :
"Being yoo aerepied that quarter
you'll have to keep It."
"Oh, It tent about tb quarter. 1
Just'Vanted to tell yon bit of oewa.

"Well, an uncle of bers In California
baa died and left ber SI6.0O0 t-ixh.
She's keeping: It mighty quiet. She
wants some one to marry ber for lore
Instead of money."
Half an hour later the deacon waa
bitching np to drtre to, the village
Two hours later be waa saying to toe
blushing old maid: '
"Sarah, I'm alone and lonely. . I've
concluded to take another, wife. Will
yon bars met"
' Sarah could bare said "Tea" In
second, but 8a rib waa no spring chick
en. She also weighed and balanced,
things. 8hed aald "Yen" to two differ
ent men before, but wtjb no witnesses
present, and they bad left bar ail for
lorn. 'Therefore abe replied:
"Deacon. I respect and- admire yon
and belle re yon to be sincere man.
Think of this matter on your way horns
and tben write me a letter."
The deacon Jogged boms and took
bis pen In hand and wrote. Be dldnt
wait for the mall, but sent his message
to the Village by bis hired man. It
was straight talk, -and tb written an
swer waa "Yea." -
Ponr days bad passed when toe ped
dler appeared again. ' Deacon Wrenn
was out In the woodshed- dyeing bis
whiskers. As for hair, be was so near
ly bald headed that It wouldn't "pay to
fool with. Be suspended operations to
bear the peddler any:
"Another bit of news for yon. old
man.- and yoo mustn't give It away.
You've beard of the Wldder .Norman,

"Yea. kinder beard."
"Got Ave children and never hoped
to find a atepfatber for 'era. bnt this
Is a world of change. It seems she
bad a brother In New England who
hadn't been beard of In twenty years.
Well, be turned np bis toes the other
day and left her $30,000 In cold cash.

hut she won't let on until she knows
be loves ber for herself and ber five
sure eyed young una. Don't breaths
hint to put him on to the dough."
The deacon promised and finished
hla dyehig. As be dyed be thought
Ue thought of the difference between
$15,000 and $30,000. An early boor In '
the evening found blm at tbe Widow
Norman's. They talked crops ' and
weather for awhile, aud- tben. -with
ber five fatherless children standing
around wltb their mouths open, be
stated that be bad long .and secretly
admired tbe mother and9 desired to
make ber bis wife. She wouldn't be
lieve It at first, bnt bis assurances
linally prevailed, and abe said yes.
for an hour afterward tbe children
took turns sitting on tbelr to be step
father's lap and pulling bin dyed whisk
ers, and they called blm "poppy" as
tie departed. " ,-
It baa been said that Deacon Wrenn
weighed and balanced things, and It
may surprise the reader that be abonld
tangle himself op wltb two engage
ments. 'He bad figured It out that be
could square things wltb tbe old maid
for $1,000 or for double tbat at tbe
most Tbla would leave blm- $28,000
clear, t and that was a good enough
bargain for any man. In a week be
married' tbe widow, and -on tbe same
day be called and offered Miss Brown
a thousand big dollars. She drove blm
from tbe bouse to Indignation. Tben
be learned that bis wife bad no broth
er to die and leave ber even 13 cents
and tbat no windmill man bad ever
wanted ber. Be had Just charged ber
wltb conspiracy to defraud an Inno
cent hearted man when be waa serv
ed wltb a summons In a breach of
promise suit, and wben the case was
finally called and tried It cost blm bis
farm to make good tbe verdict And
then 0o day tbe peddle, met him In
tbe road and halted to say:
"8' more news, but don't give It
