The time passed on to the spring,
bringing no renewed health TO Miss
West. Mrs. harrington had spent
the winter with them, but she was
soon 10 sail. In the month of March
Miss West was attacked with infiam-
nation of the chest, rendering Ma
ria a closer attendant in her room
than ever. One afternoon, when
she was growing better, and could be
left for short time, Maria went out
doors for a mouthful of fresh air
1t was Sunday; a still, geniel af.
ternoon-one of those balmy days
we get, but not often, at that season
of the year Maria walked across
the garden 20 a retired part of it,
where there was a stile in the hedge
that led to the lane; few late strag.
glers were passing by from the vii
lage church, but were soon gone and
quiet supervened again. She drew
her shaw around her, and leaned on
the stile; sine liked these calm days,
she liked to and in them in the open
air indulging in thought. The blue
sky overhead, with its tleecy clouds,
was looking unusually peaceful and
lovely, as she lifted her eyes to it,.
She thought of the everlasting fu-
ture, of that joyful world where all
around should be peace and love for
ever. Her father and mother had
taken their departure thither, and
she-she must hope and strive to at
tain it. That she had much work to
do on earth first, there was little
doubt; but she felt, in her trusting
spirit, that she should be helped on
to accomplish it; the fair sky into
which shs gazed, seemed an earnest
of promise. But less pleasant refec.
tions came over her. She wished
that every one could have the hope
that she had; but, alas how many
there were, even around her in the
family circle, who did not seem 10
possess it, or to care for it. Her
uncle and aunt were concerned to do
well for this world, but they took
little thought for the next. Frances
seemed TO take none, and Aunt Hes
ter refused to admit the prof. ability
that she was on the confines, of eter-
nifty, and, so Maria could see, wasn't
preparing for it.

CHAPTER III.
THE STARTLING NEWS.

Autumn weather came in, and the
Glebe Farm was likely TO be gay
with visitors. Mrs. Darlington was
expected 10 come for some months,
previous to her sailing again for In
dia, and Frances Chambers, young
sister of Mrs. Vests, was already
there 1t was sad to Maria to con
template the sudden and unexpected
changes that come, overturning
cherished plans. Mrs. Darlington
was to have passed a little of the
winter at their own home; only so
late as the previous May this had
been settled; and now her father was
dead and their home broken up.
Miss Chambers was about the age
of Maria-a beautiful girl, but vain
to degree, and, Maria thought, self
ish; and she was not in the habit of
Judging harshly. Maria, however,
was not the only one to pass censure
upon her.
$50 she's come, is she?" was Aunt
Testers comment, when told of the
young lady's arrival. owe shall
have her here for six months, as we
had once before, turning the house
upside down
ais she not an agreeable inmate?"
questioned Maria.
"She is agreeable for those who
like folly and frivolity. She's as
shallow as baking dish, caring for
nothing but to decorate herself off
to entertain visitors. | wonder my
brother but he's just as easy in
some things as an old shoe, and let's
his wife have her way as she will.
Don't let Miss Frances spoil you,
Maria"
Maria smiled. "Do you think
there is much danger, Aunt Hester"
"She can be as fascinating as she
pleases, and put on pretty airs and
graces that would win over to her
stronger minds than yours. Her
father is lawyer in London, as poor
as a church mouse, through his large
family"
But Maria and Frances got on
pretty well together Indeed, the
former was so gentle and unassum-
ing, so anxious to render little serv-
ices to every ore, in her unobtrusive
way, that Frances could not help
liking her. But Maria soon obtain
ed disagreeable specimen of the
selishness of her disposition, if not
of something worse.

short visit at the Glebe Farm. He
arrived on the Saturday evening, in
tending to depart on the Monday
morning. 1t was the first time they

the same kind was found in the de-

that gold shipments were at an end.

defeated. Exchange has recovered to

WANT A BRANCH LINE.
Fargo Men Press One From Fargo

a delegation of Fargo business men
called on President j. ]. Hill, of the
Great Northern yesterday, with the
idea of inducing that magnate to con-
struct a branch and furnish an outlet
for many good towns tributary to
Fargo. According to the present con-
dition of things these towns cannot be
reached by rail from the North Dakota
metropolis except by the Northern Pa
cific, or by going down to Wahpeton
and up over the branch, or by going
around to Larimore and then down.
BY such direct line as they desire Mr..
Hill to construct, the merchants of
Fargo say that it would not only bene-
fit Fargo as distributing point but
also prove of great worth to the towns
mentioned. The delegation from Far
go represented the business mems
union, and in the conference with Mr..
