Two days afterwards Esther heard that
Mr.. Wellheet's estate had been purchased
by a stranger, named Bigelow. She at
once conjectured, ard rightly. that this
was the same with her visitor. A few
days elapsed, and Esther Manson received
another visit from tho gon lcman.

The distance. however, was but short,
and she had little time for reflection.
The furniture, which, by the way, was
new and handsome, had been arranged In
the rooms after u fashion, but Esther was
| able to point out several changes for the
better, with all Of which Mr.. Bigelow pro-
fessed himself delighted; he, moreover,
asked her advice as to the proper place in
which to hang several fine pictures that he
had picked up in the course of his travels.
This was accorded with some hesitation.

A DOUBLE SURPRISE.

In large, square, old fashioned house
lived Philip Manson and his sister
Esther Philip had reached the mature
age OF forty, and Esther was close to him.
Still, each had pursued a solitary pathway
through life, seeking no companionship
save that of the other, till there was rea-
son to believe that they would continue to
follow the same course till they were gath
cred into the family tomb.
Early one afternoon, Esther was start
led by rap at the door.
She opened the door; n gentleman OF
forty five, carefully. nay elegantly dressed,
STOOD before her.

Hetook her unresisting hand and kissed
It with all the gallantry Of young lover.

"What should he say7 You arc your

Cheap literature is to be deserted in
many cases, perhaps iii most cases but tic
chcapcning Of editions Of the best authors,
giving country women the chance to read
the works to which women in town have
access in public libraries, is nothing less
than natural blessing. 1t is from the
country that the best intellectual life Of
cities is recruited. Country mothers, there
io!c, have more influence on the mental
development Of the nation than town Jloth-
crs, and it is a good thing for them to have
this increase Of nourshing mental food.
The spiritual life Of country women is
! often cultivated at too great an expense Of
tho intellectual. Their weekly church scr
vice is their only respite from the hard facts
, Of .hcir everyday working life. The intro
duc,jon Of iortnightly reading class gives
new z2st to th0ir lives. The histories Of
Motley and Prescott and CARLYLE give them
! a relation to modern existence missed in
an exclusive study of Kings and Chron-
cIcs, and the poetry Of The singers Of their
own country helps them to 4 higher apprc-
citation of the inspired poets when they re-
turn to these. There is something tragic
| and pitiiul in the life Of a woman who-hhcs
