Three years passed away, and Rober
Morland's experience in the world was
full of bitterness and disappointment
He had become widower and nearly E
bankrupt within that short period
Life had lost its former charm, and the
world was not as bright as it had been
He had grown weary OF the giddy whir
of the metropolis, and longed for the
scenes of his boyhood, and glimpse o.
the old farmhouse. His soul thirsted
for a word of welcome from her whom
he still loved better than all others,
The soft blue eyes, the tender smile,
the cheering voice of little Nell had
haunted him since they parted. He
often saw in her in imagination as he
had seen her long ago on that bleak
November day, sitting on stone at the
roadside, weeping, and he smiled when
he remembered that he was now free to
love and comfort her, and to share with
her the life that without her was a
burden.
On his journey towards her home, he
was troubled BY painful doubts.
perhaps she has forgotten me-" he
thought, land is welded to a farmers
son ; or, maybe, some traveller has dis
covered this rare flower in the wilder
ness, and has transplanted her to anoth-
err soil.
But as he approached nearer to his
destination, these doubts gave place to
hopes and longings. Bright pictures
arose in his mind of future home,
graced by the presence of Nittle Nell.
At last, after travelling for several
days, ne arrived at the heights; but
without entering his own home, be
fastened to the farmhouse. He took
the lower road, and when he came to
its angle, and saw the stone where
Nellie had sat down when last he saw
her, he could with difficulty control his
feelings. He sat down and waited, as
though he expected to see her coming
down the lane as of old, her sweet face
shaded by her sun-bonnet, and carrying
tin pail in her hand but he waited in
vain, and with a heavy heart he arose,
and continued on his way until he came
to the farmhouse.
But what change was here! The
garden that once was filled with flowers,
carefully cultivated and tastefully
arranged, was now overgrown with
weeds and shrubs, and the fence encir-
cling it was sadly neglected. The house
itself presented a forlorn aspect. The
paint was all worn off, and the window
panes were broken. One glance was
sufficient to assure Robert Morland that
the place was empty. Where, then,
were its former occupants: Where
were the venerable old couple who had
50 often sat side by side, with smiling
faces, on the vine-covered porch: Their
abode was deserted and forsaken they
must have been called to another home.
But where was little Nell? Had she
too, gone with them?
Three graves in the churchyardr reveal
ed to him the resting places Of his
former friends. Poor Robert Morland !
Had he broken little Nell's heart?

The white clouds stay up in the sky!
The birds light low that fly SO fast;
The downy thistlss tall at last;
But the fair clouds are always high,
wonder why

The little bird clings to its Dough
Sometimes at night when awake
And hear the tree tops moan and shake,
think, ''How sleep the brides now ?

wonder why
We leave the fair earth for the sky,
wish that we might always stay;
That the dear Lord might come some day
And make it heaven! Yet We mus. die,
