husband from ell secular care, that he
might more fully devote himself to study
and parish work, poor Ms. Nelson,
though bright and even joyous, began to
show the inevitable results Of her condi
ton, to cough slightly, and to look
slarmingly "spiritueile."
To one who had made physiology II
study, the laws of hygiene an especial
hobby, these unconscious signals Of dis.
tress were but too ineligible; and, in
reply to some encomium Of my mothers,
after their first visit to Mrs. Nelson, Aunt
Jane remarked, in her blunt way, "Yes!
she's burning the candle of life at both
ends-no wonder there's an illumina-
ton"
For long while after this an evident
cloud hung over my aunt; some disturb
ing influence making itself plainly felt in
her daily life and conversation.
Her incomings aud outgoings were
more abrupt than ever, aud, if suddenly
spoken to in one of her pre-occupiea
moods, she was almost snappish in reply.
She was evidently, as Debby remarked,
"a wrestling with some new notion" AT
length the skies seemed to clear, and the
storm to have passed away.
A lovely summer afternoon, and nature
on every hand w00ing to Out.of-door en-

Ushered into the little parlor, she sent

''Dcar Miss Jane" said the bright lit

both hands, "here am. You will ex-

little three year-Old, who had contrived
to nestle partly under the carpet, partly
on her lap. "Do sit down, and l will
send Oracle up stairs"
But Oracle beginning to cry, and re-
fusing to depart with Bridget, was finally
carried to the nursery-door by mamma,
who quickly returned, coughing slightly,
and with II heightened color. How my
aunt managed I never knew; but in a.
teen miuutcs she had carried off her
hostess for an afternoon, drive, leaving
the good Debby installed as general care

they went-through pleasant lanes, where
oak and chestnut and walnut and pine
