The bishop had scarcely regained his
feet when the selfsame phynnodderee
which Densie had described, horned,
bearded aud hairy. lightly vaulted the
headstone. his sides shaking with venge-
ful laughter. The imp grasped the bish-
ops hands in his own with quick, warm,
wonderful human pressure. and with a
with a wild and triumphant "Ha, ha,
haH' disappeared in the direction the
crazed and desperate cofin-maker had
taken.
May the Lord have mercy on his
guilty soul!' was the fervent and solemn
prayer of the bishop there among the
dreary graves.
Then he took his bible under his arm
and the old cotfin-maker's lantern in his
hand. So softly were his steps retraced,
his waiting carriage regained, and his
departure made, that. the village ours
slumbered heedlessly on: and soon all
was again peaceful and still in old St.
MaughOld's by the sea.

In the fair glen of Ballakilley a gentle
mans villa has replaced the cenUuries-old
cottage of Galley Quillian. Its owner is a
lover of books, with an early life
romance as a coffin makers helper
and his wife has in her great gray
eyes not only the light of Joy
and love, but that strange tinge of misty
sadness which comes from the endless
callings of the sea. With the romping
children in the glen is one who has en-
tered the second babbling age of youth.
She loves best to linger near the great
clagh or rock of Ballakilley glen, and
over and over she croons to the other
children there:

MAN AND WOMAN COMPARED.

My shrill voiced friend would, think,
contradict me and tell me Of the one
woman who got a degree for exact
sciences; another for mathematics and
another for something else. She doesn't
remember that this is one woman in Eng.
land. and one woman iu France, and one
woman in the United States, and one
woman in Austraiia-how about all the
other women} Hundreds of men get
these honors every day and make no fuss
about them. But we hear of these women.
and we are told they will do such great
things, and after that they are forgotten,
and the other women go on doing great
things every day in the year; and be-
cause they belong to the quiet sisterhood
nobody is told of them. But their work
stands. And its result is seen it is seen
in good, pure women, in honest, manly
men, and in respect and reverence for all
things that deserve it.
