into the habit of doing all the churning
She finished breakfast before me one morn

filed the churn with cream, and set it down
Just where conldn't help seeing what was

and churned till the butter came. She
didn't thank me, but looked so nice and

she should Just ask me, but she never did,
and wouldn't say anything about it to save

resolve not to churn another time until
she asked me- Churniug day come, and
when my breakfast-she always got nice
breakfass-when that was swallowed, there
stood the churn. | got up, and standing
for few minutes, Just to give her chance
to ask me, put on my hat aud walked out
of doors stopped in the yard to give her
time to call me, but never a word said she,
and so with a palpitating heart moved on.

an indescribable sensation of guiltresting on
