fields heart now. But ] must go, The
chips are getting heavy"
The clock cleaner fixed the other
clock and regulated it, wondering. A
storm was coming, The sky turned
gray. and the windows ratified. He
seemed to feel an air of mystery about
the house after what Liddy had said.
The little old woman came and stood
beside him as he was taking apart the
wheels of the other clock which was a
brass one A mousetrap under the Ia
BILE snapped, aud Liddy fed, saying

will never forgive her. If she were to
walk in now, I would not so much as
turn my head. have two hearts. hate
that old clock, for it used to tell the
hours of happier days before she gave
the weights away"
The clock cleaner went out and has
tened toward the turnpike, over which
a stagecoach between Boston and
Worcester still ran. AS he reached the
corners he looked back to the chimneys
over which the low storm was drifting
and said
There is some secret about that
house that lies deep in the heart Of Al
bert, and the clock is a part Of the Sc
cret. The works Of shat timepiece are
gone Why l cannot tell. He may have
sold them fer relics. The weights that
ran them were melted into bullets, and
it may be- if such things are, that some
one whose life they ended haunts the
old oak case / could see that Albert
felt deeply about something"
He wondered what Albert you'd have
to tell him when a year should bring
him around to the house on the hill
again
Mis- Overfeld liked to look out of the
pantry window. it faced the winding
turnpike road that ran up the hill by
the orchard way" The balm bed was
under it, the lilac bushes and the rhu-
barb. Near it was the red peony, which
was called piney. There were house
leeks on the wall and gooseberry bush
es under them. The hens stole their
nests there and hid from the hawks.
She would stand before the pantry
window for hours. skinner in hand
looking up the hill.
When she was suddenly spoken to-
she would say: 1t looks pleasant up

come back again. But ] wouldn't speak

boy. You would forgive our son Albert
if he were to marry a gypsy girl
Yes, but l will never forgive her.
Let us never mention her name"
Such was the condition of the family
when the old clock cleaner returned
from the war.
He heard the story and said:
Il can hardly trust my ears. Annie
was such good girl. But the heart
must wed its own. 1 pity her. She will
come back again, for Annie is Annie"
Then he turned to the clock and said:

She seemed listening.
How / used to wait for Annie even
ings-- conference meeting and candle

evenings! How my heart used to beat
hard when she lifted the latch of the
porch door in the night! I was happy
then.
"She came home like an angel then.
wonder if Annie's hand will ever again
lift the latch in the night Trouble
brings the heart home and sends us
back to God But I wouldn't speak to
her--lud, no, no, no."
The tenderness went out of her face,
and a strange, foreign light came into
her blue gray eyes.
She sat looking fXedly toward the
hill. The old graves were there.
Farmer Overfield came in.
"Thinking?" said he.
81 was thinking of how Annie used to
lift the latch evenings. I wish it could
be so again. But it can't"
why not? There can be no true
Thanksgiving in any household where
it is forbidden to any to lift the latch"
