aPlease sir, lady 10 see you." X
And Donald found himself looking int
Mamie Eastlake's deep blue eyes.
"Nannie" calculated he.
Eyes, Donald, it is I. Oh! Donald,
have been SO wrong, 90 foolish. And
have come to ask your pardonW
my little Mamie, hush! Not word
more!"
"But l must speak, Donald I must tell
you how earnestly l have repented my
temper and folly. If you will take me
back to your heart, Donald, l will try and
he good wife to you, and dutiful daugh-
ter to your grandparents"
So little Mamie hauled down the flag Of
rebellion and remained true to her better
nature, much to Miss Hero Fields scorn
and contumely.
"You have made a great goose Of your
SELF" said the young lady angriIy.
Donald thinks Pm right" persisted
Mamie, "and Donald's good opinion is of
more consequence to me than that of all
the world besides"
"Oh, ifyou're as far gone as that, have
nothing more to say" jeered Hero.
The wedding day came, and the wed.
ding tour passed away and the the thun-
der of Niagara and the green glitter ofthe
Thousand islands, and the gray walls of
Quebec, and when Mamie Aubrey came
home to the.house Donald had furnished
for her, she wore face as bright as rose
in June.
Grandpapa and grandmamma Vivian
were waiting on the threshold togreet her.
Mamie kissed and Rugged them both most
heartily. d.
ut is go nice to have you here to well
come U.S." said she. "And you're sure
your rooms have been quite comfortable?
And grandpapa has had his dinners just as
he liked them? But I mean to see to that
myself now. For you don't know what a
famous housekeeper am going to make"
But when the cozy lea dinner was over
the old people got up.
"Where are you going," cried Mamie,
"Homc," said grandmamma Vivian.
Home is here" cried Mamie.
"No, my dear, no." said the old lady
kindly; "young people are better by them
selves. Donald has bought us pretty lit
tie cottage mile or two out in the coun-
try, where can keep a COW, and grand
father can look after the poultry. And you
must come and see us there every day.
So the old people trudged away, and
Mamie looked up into her husbands
face.
Donald" said she, "what does this
mean."
"It means, my darling" he answered,
that grandpapa and his wife could not be
happy in the upwon,ed contiement of a
,ity. They lopged for the country. And
10 you will have home without any re-
alions.n-law after all"
"Oh, Donald, do not repeat my silly
yords!' she whispered.
But there was only love and tenderness
n his eyes.
Little one" said he, your heart was
light all along
'It was, if love could be guide" she
nswered softly,
