limitet for the bashful young farmer to
find anything to say to this, and so they
sat in silence, her hand still resting al
most caressingly on his. Out in the sit
ung-room could be heard the measured,
solemn Textbook of the great oaken
clock, and outside the wind breathing
through the trees added certain weird
ness To the Sabbath repose. Every now
and then the sound of the old dog in the
woodshed turning over restlessly could
be heard, and all the while the mans
heart was demanding that he should ex-
press himself, commission the tongue
refused to obey.
Finally Martha Ann, without raising
her head, said dreamily:
"Do you know, james, I've often won
dered WHY you didn't ever git married.
You see. have always looked upon my
self as sister to you, wishin' always for
your welfare and happiness, and have
asked myself agin and agin, Now, why
don the find some good, true girl aud
marry herr You'd make some woman a
good husband, James; know you
would. you're so good and stidy and
home lovin', aud sech men amt plenti-
full. 1t amt fer you to be spending your
Sunday evenings with me. who is only
your true friend, fer you'd ought ter be
findin' a sweetheart and gettin' married
and settled In life."
80, Martha Amir he found the cour-
age to lay.
She continued, as IL not noticing the
interruption.
GA man as has reached your age ought
ter be lookin' round him, and there's n
plenty Of girls would have you, too, a
plenty OF them. Now, there's Mary
Gibson--she's good girl as ever lived,
q splendid housckeeper, and religious.
Or Sally Stephens, or Esther Lapum, any
of them would Jump at the chance TO be-
come Mrs. Simpkins."
