and most approved instruments for the
testing OF the eye; am ready to fit your

complicated SIMPLE or COMPOUND

My intention is to give Optics large

SO that the wearing of Glasses will do

Please bear in mind that there is NO
CHARGE for testing the eye, and that
my prices for all Glasses are the same as
in the States.

"Dear auntie,s | said, Il will
spare you all possible annoyance
and l wish you could be induced
to make a long visit or beard
somewhere until your own home
could be made ready"
"No, Corinth,r said my aunt
with sudden snap of her lower
jaw, "no; if this thing must be
done am not coward enough to
run away and leave you here to
bear all the burden alone, al
though | am only too glad to
throw much of it upon your
shoulders. You will be sorry
some day, child, that you gave
up brighter and better society to
humor the caprices of an old
woman; we grow exacting as we
grow older, especially when one
has been provided for and petted
as / have BEEN"
"Auntie," said l, II wish you
would tell me more of Uncle
Rolfe and your married life.
When l 60 out and meet business
men, Uncle Roles old friends,
they tell me such pleasant things
OF him, of his kindness to the
poor, his love of little children,
his womanly tenderness and ro-
bust manliness; and when |
come in again to this house, his
home, built by his orders, built
for you, his first and only love, |
try my best to remember him
but | cannot"
"How could you, child, when
your father dragged your poor
mother off to foreign lands, and
you never saw America until you
were three years old, and your
uncle was then on board the
Smyrna, bound for the West
Indies?"

CHAPTER L.

MY GREAT-AUNT $ HOUSE.
"MY dear Corinth, l can new
er, never have it done" said my
grand-aunt; sit seems like sacri-
lege.n
"But, auntie," | demonstrated,
"you have heard the opinion Of
the carpenter, and he quite agrees
with the mason who examined
the premises last week; It is a
necessity, disagreeable, perhaps,
but unavoidable; we must either
submit to it or suffer-
eve should suffer enough at
all events; why, think of it,
child (my aunt still calls me
child, although silver threads
are fast coming in my once lux
hriant hair, and l find myself
old at thirty, through sudden
sorrow, think of it," repeated
my aunt; "dust and disorder,
the carpets all up, pictures torn
down, dirt and confusion every
where; oh, no, Corinth, | could
not think Of it,"
The dear old lady rocked to
and fro, and her soft cap-strings
moved with a gentler motion
than her thoughts.
| know her so well that / could
we'll afford to wait until this
plan should gradually impress
itself upon her as others had
done, Change, with her, was
innovation, and a naturally OBJ
stinate temper induced her to
oppose all plans, even when made
for her comfort. Like most aged
people, she had a kind, tender
heart, which, once reached, was
worth Winning, / think my
aunt looked upon all expressions
of tenderness as a weakness to
be overcome, and, therefore, her
really loving nature was hidden
from sight, When some sudden
surprise or new anxiety threw
her off her guard l observed that
her inner character, her best self,
was very lovable, and l did not
join with those who wondered
how a bluff jolly, genial sea CAP
tain like my Uncle Role married
her. She was cold and stately
to the world at large, even brusque
at times, but l pictured her as
she had been in her younger
years, as she was sometimes even
now, when, as l said, her best
self prevailed,
1t injuries either inah on woman
to live much alone, and my
aunt's life had been quite solita,
ry for many years.
Uncle Role had built a cags
for his bird in his early man
hood, and thither they went scot
after their marriage. 1t was {
strange house, standing a littl,
outside of the city, with a iarg,
garden about and pretty shad,
trees before it,

Role had said to the carpenter
who was architect and workman
in one, and that was the only
order given; so the ho,ise wal
built three stories high, will
great barh-like rooms ana al
downright and upright as tn
man who planned it.
The ornaments were few, thi
conveniences also. There wa
sea room, and that was all, say,
sunshine. 1 have often wonder
ed how a petted only iaaughte

tered this great square chest Il

to the West Indies and left her
alone in her castle. She speaks
of woman who lived with her,
and sometimes, but rarely, of a
baby who was born in a room
upstairs, a beautiful baby that
died without seeing the father
who was so far away, or even
touching the little gifts he sent
home for it. Then life was drea-
ry | know, for a younger brother
was sent for and the great house
echoed his laughter, his whistling
and sport, for he was only a
school untamed and needless
but $50 loving" says my aunt,
80 very loving and such comfort
to me-"
"Ah, yes / say thoughtfully;
he was Jamie, the boy with deep
dimples and a laughing face; l
remember him-~I saw his picture
in the book-room upstairs. What
became of Jamie, auntieW
My great-aunt closes her eyes
when l ask this-closes them
and says nothing for some time;
then she opens them, and look
ing straight into the glowing fire
on the hearth, says briefly:
Drowned"
"Ah, auntie" / exclaim; but
| cannot add chow sad," for, af-
ter all, how much do we know Of
the future? Jamie might have
I been good and noble, blessing
this fond sister and the world ;
he might have been evil and cor
rupt, blighting hearts and lives.
The shield has two sides, let us
not grieve without hope.
While l think, my aunt still
rocks and CAGES in the fire, and
at last she says:
"Corinth Cher tone is so severe
that start in my chair, although
/ am not a nervous woman), Cor
NTH that boy left me one August
day with a kiss on my cheek and
pride in my hearts he ran down
those stairs yonder laughing,
leaping, bubbling over with life,
and in two hours they brought
him in drowned"
Again my aunt paused, and
again her eyes were tightly clos
ed and ] could not speak, for be-
fore my eyes as before hers was
the vision of that fair young face,
dead, but beautiful in death,
ellis sail-boat, my gift to him,

Jamie, but she told me why she
had fitted up three rooms that
strangers might come in and lei
her know that human help was
near at hand.
"The house is full of memories

Auntie was silenced, but no
convinced.
Again the builder called ant
