Ralph sat by the fire the
next morning trying to read a
few minutes before school time
while the boys were doing the
chores, and the bound girl was
milking the cows, with no one
in the room but the old woman.
She was generally as silent as
Bud, but now she seemed for
some unaccountable reason
disposed to talk. She had set
down on the broad hearth to
have her usual morning smoke;
the poplar table, adorned by
no cloth, sat in the floor; the
unwashed blue tea cups sat in
the unwashed blue saucers; the
unwashed blue plates kept
company with the begrimed
blue pitcher. The dirty skill

This gentle hint came near
knocking Ralph down. Had

He felt confident that the cor,

Banta, who was a compound

One morning, as Ralph walk

school-house in a direction at

not needed. Shocky had taken
care TO leave in that way, and
was altogether too cunning to
be seen coming down the road
with MIR. HartsoOk. But after
he got over the fence to
go through the "sugar camp"
or (sugar orchard as they say
at the EaSt,) he stopped and
turned back once or twice, just
to catch one more smile from
Ralph. And then he hied
away through the tall trees, a
very happy boy, kicking and
plowlng the brown leaves be-

saying over and over again,
"How he looked at me! how he
