/ thought IS long as was just loafing
around and no use to anybody might
just as well come up here and look
after you a little and stay till your
folks got back and look out there didn't
any wolves or robbers or anything get
YOU" The man laughed again in such
a pleasant, merry way when he said
that, and then he went on to tell us
William was better and the doctor
thought he would get we'll, but he CUES
sed father and mother would have to
stay there for awhile. We asked the
man in, and he made himself at home
at once.
1t seemed to me if had never seen
man SO very kind as he was, and he was
so quick to see things that needed to be
done. He went out of his own accord
and drew a pail of water, and he
brought in wood for the sitting room
fire. We children all agreed when we
went up stairs to bed that night that
there never was a man so good, except
father. We had told him our plans for
Christmas, and he was so much inter-
ested. He said of course we could have
a tree. He would cut a fine tree, and
if Uncle William was not well enough
for father and mother to leave him on
Christmas day he would go to Ware
vile himself and stay with Uncle Will
lam, so they could come home. He
said, too, that he could go down to the
village on foot, and if We would make out
a list of things we wanted he would go
down and buy them for us. He went the
very next day. We gave him all our
money and he brought back everything
we wanted We decided to make him
some presents. too, and | began a little
wash leather money bag, like the one I
had made for father. Flory made PEN

Samuel j. Wetherhed cut a beautiful
tree for US, taking US all into the woods
to pick it out. Then he set it up in the
parlor so firmly that 1t did not shake.
He rugged some sockets for candles and
helped us string popcorn for decora-
tons and make candy bags. He could
sew as we'll as mother. Samuel j.
Wetherhed was the most industrious man
I ever saw He was not idle minute.
He MIXED and did all the barn chores,
he made the fires and drew water and
swept the floors and washed milk pals

, us children; but as it was, she felt that
she must go too. She and father,
though can understand now that they
felt anxious while trying to conceal it
from us, did not think there was any
real danger in our staying alone. They
reasoned that nobody except the people
in the village would know we were
alone, and there was probably not one
ill disposed person there, certainly not
one would do us harm. Then, too,
it was winter, and we were off the main
travelled road, and tramps seemed very
improbable. We had enough provis-
ions in the house to last us for weeks,
and there was a great stock of frewood
in the shed. Luckily the barn was con-
nected with the house, so I did not
have TO go out of doors to milk-it was
fortunate that 1 knew how-and we
had only one COW.
Mother staid up all that night and
baked, and father split up kindling
wood and got everything ready to
leave. They started early next morn
ing, repeating all their instructions
over and over. We felt pretty lone
some when they had gone, l especial
ly, not only because ] was the eldest
and felt a responsibility for the rest,
but because father had given me par
ticular charge. was the only one who
knew that there was $3.50, some money
which father had from the sale of a
wood lot in Wareville month after
we had moved and had kept in the
house ever since, locked up in the Sc
cret drawer in the chest in the dark

So Samuel started off and Charley
with him, and then I made Flory and
Janey go up stairs. You two have just
got to go up stairs and stay there while
l fix a surprise said l. Surprises were
a faVorite amusement with us children.
Flory and Janey laughed and ran off
up stairs in minute.
l set some molasses on to boil Then
got the money out of the secret drawer
and made six little parcels of it, rolled
as tightly as ] could and wrapped in
letter paper Then as soon as the moIasses
was boiled / made popcorn balls Luckily
l had enough corn popped When / called

corn balls. The balls in one were of extra
| size, with strings attached all ready to
| hang on the tree. and in six of them
were hidden the little rolls of money. The
J balls in the other plate were smaller, and
| those were to be eaten at once.
| When Samuel and Charley came
| home, I gave them some of the little
corn balls. and when Samuel had set up
! the tree, l hung on the others. Then I

What do you want?" 1 made out to

uel, and l went down to the sitting room
Il want to ask you question" said
| Samuel He tried to smile, but he was
very pale and looked as if he was as
frightened as I was. l trembled so
could scarcely stand. I was so afraid he
would ask me right out, Where is the
money!" but he did not.
Il only want TO ask if your father left
some money in the house when ne went

as if he were ashamed.
Yes. he did," said l. 1 had to or tell

Picked M AND THERE WAS SAMUEL RuhMAolNG IN THE CHEST

were He found some boards and tools
of fathers and made some wonderful
things with them. There was nice box,
which he showed us how to line with
flannel, for mother to keep knives and
forks in, little boat for Charley and a
number of other things.
I felt much easier in my mind about
the money after Samuel J. Wetherhed
came.
We had given Samuel the bedroom out
of the kitchen to sleep in. He said he
would rather have that, because it was
so handy for him TO build the fire in the
morning, and l did not have the first
suspicion that anything was wrong un-
til the night of the day but one before
Christmas. I had been sleeping well since
Samuel came, through feeling so safe.
though I had, as I afterward remembered,
often started awake, because l thought 1
heard a noise, but that night l did not
go TO sleep as soon as usual. l was very
much excited thinking about Christmas
and father and mother coming home.
Samuel had gone down to the village
that morning and got a letter FOR me
from mother in which she said that they
were coming home Christmas morning.
since Uncle William was we'll enough to
be left We were all delighted, the more
so because we thought that now Samuel
could stay and have our Christmas tree
with us He laughed and thanked us
when We said so. but in a moment after
ward | noticed that he looked very
sober, even sad. Well. thinking over
everything made me very wide awake,
and | guess IL must have been as late
as II o clock when I was sure / heard
somebody downstairs in the sitting room,
which was directly under our room. I
thought at once that it might be rcbber
and perhaps l ought to speak to Samuel
In case he should not hear the noise. /
waited till / heard the noise again very
plain and was sure that knew where it
was-some one trying - 0pe9 the door

! more than smiled-he fairly laughed in
such a good natured way when he saw
how we were all peeking, for the young
erer children were behind Flora, and
| found afterward that Charley, who had
great notions of being smart and brave,
| though he was so little, because he was
boy, had the poker shaking it at the
stranger The man laughed and said
in such a pleasant voice, pleasanter
! than his smile even: NOW, don't you
be scared children. I am Samuel j..
Wetherhed."
The man said that as if it settled
everything, and we all felt that it did,
though we hard never heard of Samuel
J. Wetherhed in our lives. We felt
that we ought to know all about him,
and Janey said that night that she was
sure she had seen his name in The
Missionary Herald and he must be a
deacon who gave a great deal to mis-
sions.
Samuel ]. Wetherhed went on to tell
us more about himself, though | am
sure we should have been satisfied with
the name. Il have a married sister
who lives in Wareville. She married d
man of the name of Stackpole," said
he, and we all nodded wisely at that
and felt that it was an introduction.
We knew Mr.. Stackpole. lie was the
man to whom father had sold his wood
land Il went to visit my sister last
week" said the man. Il haven't got

position, as he comes from another
branch of the family. Mr.. Sinclair is
the head of the oldest line OF the fa-
nous house of Sinclair. The only point
open to dispute is whether he is the
lawful head-that is, whether all OF
his ancestors were born In wedlock.
The evidences recently brought 10 light
seems to show that they were.
Alexander Sinclair, the ninth earl OF
Caithness, who died in 1865 at the age
of 81. is the cause of most of the trou-
BILE which is to be settled now. The
matter has been in the courts almost
ever since the day the old earl died,
and the earldom has changed hands
many times. The last OF the earls died
in 1889.
