to come up to an erect bearing She
could find time for the old pleasure in
books now and then, for healthy walk
in the Street, and call on some valued
friend
And was Efie the worse for this
change? Did the burden she was shar-
ing with her mother depress her shout
ders and take the lightness from her
step? Not 50. Thelanguidness engeu-
dered by idleness, which had begun to
show itself, disappeared in few weeks !;
the color came warmer into her cheeks,
her eyes gained in brightness. She was
growing, in fact, more beautiful, for q
mind cheerfully conscious of duty was
moulding every lineament of her coun.
tenance into a new expression.
Did self-improvement stop? Oh, no
From one to two hours were given t.
close practice every day. Her mind be
coming more vigorous in tone, instead o
enervated by idleness, chose better or
der of reading than had been indulget
before, and she was growing toward
thoughtful, cultivated, intelligent wo
manhood. She also found time, ami,
her home duties, for an hour twice a wecl
with German teacher, and she began ais
to cultivate a taste for drawing No,
thst she was employing the time sh
found at her disposal, how cheerful an
companionable she CREW. She did no
seem like the Effie Thornton of mont
before. In fact, the sphere of the Who'll
household was changed. AS an idler
Efiie Thornton had been to the rest, an
the weight of that burden haa been stuff
cient to depress, through weariness. tn

standing up, sclf-abstuined, but share
in the burden of each, all hearts cam
back to a lighter measure, beating ryth
metically and in conscious enjoyment.
