Christmas Eve, and Mrs. Suaresbruok had a large party
at her house--a nice social party, that one thoroughly
enjoyed, music going on in one place, intelligent convents.
Pion or sprightly wit in others, for the mistress knew so
well how to blend her company, that very few were bored.

But there came a change over the quiet of ltushtown.
There were whicperc in the air of an approaching invasion.
A big speculator, in a big gold chain, with a big coke,
and a big company at his lack, foiled his way along the
miti-shom. There was talk of villa situ, and villa plot.:
and ocian view, and there were Hawing placards up at
the village in, and there was a hig tent down along the
rands, with a gay streamer atop of it, and crowds of Lucy,
beer-drinking peeple alsoit it, invading the wean wrieh
and vulgarising the place, an Mee. Lymph declared.
And finally, it appeared, the wily auctioneer tlin:w a
covetous eye on that slighted two-acre lot which was
generally sniffed at by the village a* " Deb's property."

bargained and put off and haggled with the eloquent
auctineer, for Jerry'. sake, until finally, as you never can
bring a milieus reaeon, lie was fain to give her her price.
And he touched his hat respectfully when they clues( the
bargain, for he respected money, did Mr. Jones, and Deli
was a far richer woman than when he first met her, and
bad proved to be sharper than lie was after all.
That was a prowl Ilay for Deb when she ileisicitoil the
prereeds of one business transaction of her life in a snug
little bank of a neighbouring town. She still owned the
shaky old house and a hit of land about it, and she had •
bank-book beruidea! There was a small sum coming to her
yet, and, happy as a princess, she walked along the sands,
in her nun-bonnet, to nieet the gallant auctioneer at the
big tent, for, seeing that Deb was a landed proprietor, and
mistress of a ItMai fortune, that gentleman had invited
her down to the great
tone."

said, "bow the thing was one. and to settle up. It was
all a wonderful scene to poor simple Deborah - the fe.t.
ing, the crowded taldes, the rushing, jostling,
humoured people who bid high prices and drank l'ieer,
and hankered to get out by the ocean. In her interest
and excitement she lingered with the rest till nearly
sunset.
"You had better be careful of that money," said the
auctioneer, kindly, as she put the purse in her pocket
as they " settled up." "There are ill-looking fellows
hanging about here, it's bad for a lone woman to have
much money about her."
"I shan't always be a lone woman," said Deb, in the
fullness of her heart, thinking of the time when Jerry
would be back as big and brave and fearless as any body.
That night there came a new moon over the water; the
wile ilim stretch of lifting waves was faintly silvered,
the wraith-like iiiot lying beyond gliumsered like a Milky
Way. But Deli was not lingering out-doors to-night.

sat in the great shadow-haunted kitchen, her sun-bonnet
still on her head, a candle flaring beside her—a candle
which flickered unsteadily over a tumbled heap of bills,
interspmed with a few odd pieces of silver, the hoardings
of years.
lieb wax counting her treasure, gloating over it like a
miser. Window and door VIM epee: the sea-breeze
came floating in. Seger, happy, intent, she heard nothing,
feared nothing. The wind was always making a racket
about the disjointed old place, and Deb got used to it. It
sounded like a sinister footfall en the threshold, hut Ileb
never looked up. She did not we a dark face bending over

I hesitated before accepting her kind offer, and she
