On the blueness of the skies:
Do thou, sweetheart. closa thy lids
On the blueness of thy eyes.
The little brides heads have sought their wings
Each little flower has closed its petals bright;

With all its rings of golden hair.

CHAPTER XIX.
MASQUERADIS0.

When I rniFal had left the Office
Missy crept 10 her fathers side. He
was still 'aa ing out of the window, and
the first int nation Of her approach was
the touch oi her fingers upon his hand.
Unnappily, Col. Thorne was not demon
strative of affection, especially toward
children, u d just now, while no was
struggling " the mastery Of his feelings,
he wished 10 be alone, and he shrank
from her { uch saying coldly:
go play, Winifred; you interrupt
me-
Yet. even rs he spoke, he was conscious
of craving for tlfe sympathy expressed
in the clasp of those small fingers, and
instantly he put out the hand he had so
hrusquely Withdrawn, put 1t out in
dumb entreaty for the caress he had re-
pulsed. But it ia the fate OF roticent
natures to be misunderstood. His in
veterats shyness had led him to slight
his opportunity, and Missy's nascent ten
dcrness, once rebuffed, was not easily to
be won anew. She saw in her fathers
outstretched hand only signal for her
TO retire, and her indignant spirit ut
tered its protest as she turned and left

~ ott"o tHt NNut UpW say rs ODunQ az
WoBS TO come true, Nom Bec.n
The doctors summoned TO Winifred
Thorne's bedside were unanimous in the
opinion that she should not be moved for
some time to come; SO, for two months
or more, Col. Thorne and Miss Elvira took
up their abode with Mrs. Herry.
Missy's case excited universal SYM
pathy, though Missy herself did not make
an attractive invalid; she was cxacting
and self willed to Il degree that taxed the
utmost patience Of all who waited upon
her, the colonel alone excepted, who of
all her attendants, was to Missy the least
acceptable. MisinterpretinS his anxious
couutenance, she resented his watchful-
ness as though ii were intended. to rebuke
her rash escapade, and again and again
she repeated that she was not sorry she
had tried TO go 10 her brother. Yet at
times Il strange, dull anguish, to which
she would give no utterance, weighed
upon this ardent young spirit, when for
hours she would lie in silent, hopeless
contemplation of the changed life that
awaited her, For by dint of Glory-Ann's
oft repeated admonition, that if she did
not keep very still she would never walk
again, Missy had come at last to under
stand what was her doom.
ut seems that what you say is bound al
ways to come true, Nom Bee, she sighed.
Don't YOU remember the night nv
father drove Brer Nicholas away, and /
ran out in the rain, you said then | WAS
goin' to be all crippled up, so | could
never dance
Nom Bees heart smote her Outlaw,
now, honey, hukkom you members all
sich ez dat? Don't you know yo ole
nanny jes' scsso ter mex you obey?
Doctors Is got heap mo sense den mos
ON us; en- you ies min what de say, you
gwan hop often dat bed spry ez cricket,
come bombye.'
But in this prophecy Missy put no
faith. Lying weary and helpless upon
her bed, she pondcred many things in
her small brain with seriousness beyond
her years. Striving to picture to herself
what life would be on CrutChes, she had
began to find sort of pleasure in making
plans for such life. 1t seemed now TO
Missy that, since she could no longer run
about at will, and climb trees, and wade
in the branch, she might as well take
kindly TO quiet, young lady ways, and
submit 10 be educated. Therefore, when
at last she was allowed to return to
Thorne Hill, she astonished her father
and her aunt Elvira uy the announce
ment that she would like to have gov
erness right away
The colonel, anxious 10 crafty her
every whim, and greatly rejoiced that
her desires had taken so commeudable "a
direction, wrote 10 his aunt in New
York, begging her good offices in the
selection of Governess much as he
would have written for any bale of mer-
chandise.
The colonels aunt, Mrs. Lorrimer. was
as fixed in her opinions as the colonel
was in his, and she positively declined
the responsibility of selecting a governess
for Winifred Thorne. The colonel, she
argued, was not yet past the prime of
wherefore should she send woman
10 Thorne Hill at the risk of bringing
