A Glimpse OF Father Matthew.

One afternoon as she bent over her ironing ta-
bic, improvised from chair, she was conscious
Of sudden hush throughout the queer high room.
Looking up from her little round-edged iron, she
saw group of gentlemen just within the door
The pleasant-faced superintendent often came
here. Kstey had seen him many times. He
beckoned 10 her now, as Elsie lett her work, and
the girls, struck with strange awe, made contiDu-
bl obeisancc bowling to the hooT, yet not for him.
"This is Father Matthew" said he kindly, as the
child with her little hot, red face stood before
him, the roll of linen tangled about her feet. She
noticed then that some of the party wore long
straight coats like that of the old priest who went
fup and down Poplar street sometimes; and at
these words, one in advance Of the Others who
had been speaking to Elsie, took her little hand,
stii hot from the iron, in his with murmur of
kind words. Long afterwards she remembered
the hand-clasp and the gentle tones Of his voice,
when all recollection OF the face or figure Of the
great reforner had ty.dcd from her mlnd.--From
