cruelty toward this gentle child fresh in
her mind, the mere sight Of him filled
her with anger
So the little fellow wandered out
to the barn and felt very lonely as he
climbed up on the hay-mow to make
sure that his dearest earthly friend had
indeed gone. He sat down to wonder
where Uncle Phin was, and how long it
would be before he would come to take
him away from that unhappy place. He
wished that he might stay right where
he was, and not be compelled to see any
of the family again, and was feeling
very wretched and forlorn generally.
All at once he heard Cynthia's sweet,
childish voice calling the chickens
around her on the barn floor, where she
fed them every morning. Here was
somebody for whom he cared, and the
thought that he was SO soon to leave
her, probably forever, filled him with a
pang of mingled pain and love.
He slid down from the hay-mow to
where his little cousin stood, and as she
threw her arms about his neck and
kissed him and told him how much she
loved him and how sorry she was for
him, he began TO realize how hard it
would be to part from her. and to won
der if after all he ought to run away
with Uncle Phin.
Cynthia was loving and lovable lit
tie soul, and though she had freckled
face, it was lighted by pair of glorious
brown eyes. Her hair was Of rich
brown, fecked with specks of red gold
where the sunlight shone through it.
1t was just such hair as the sun
delighted to toss it into the
most bewitching tangles whenever it
was not closely imprisoned under its lit
tie pink sun-bonnet- 1t reminded Ar
thur of his own dear mothers hair, and
often when they were playing together
he would snatch of the pink sun-bon-
net just for the pleasure of seeing it
ripple down over her shoulders. His
own used to be long, almost as long as
it all off when he first came to live there,
and it had been clipped short ever since,
greatly to Uncle Phin's sorrow.
While Arthur and Cynthia were feed
ing the chickens, and the former was al
most forgetting his recent loneliness,
Mr.. Dustin came into the barn. He
greeted both the children pleasantly,
and even kissed them, thing that Ar
thur wondered at, for he could not re-
member that it had ever happened be-
fore. When he asked: ''DO you know
where Uncle Phin is. Arthur"
81 think he has gone away" replied
the boy. flushing and looking down. for
it seemed somehow as though be we're
not exactly telling the truth.
