The Country Town.

It's common to sheer at the country
town,
With it's quiet streets and its peaceful
air,
Where the little river meanders down
To be lost in the broad, blue sea some
where
AS we who think we are wise are lost
In the roaring city that, like the sea,
Has its ebb and flow, with its millions
tossed
AS bubbles robbed of identity.
There's fellowship in the country town,
With its empty streets and its spread
ing trees,
Where the country song birds MARBLE
down
AT maids as fair as man ever sees;
Where the wind blows sweet from the
fields nearby,
Where men know the names which
their %neighbors bear,
Where a man is missed when he's gone
to lie
With the peaceful ones who have ceas-
ed to care.
There are joys out there in the country
town
That We of the city may never learn
In the rush for money and for renown,
Confronting strangers where'er we
turn!
Oh, wasn't Gods world serene and fair
In the country town ere we came
away?
And won't it be sweet to sleep out there,
Far from the city's roar, some day?

as l could, and, having left her in the
van, l walked Oh to the cottage to pre-
pare the way for her reception. l en-
tered the gate, went softly up to the
cottage, and looked in at the kitchen
window. 1t was quite dark outside; but
inside the kitchen lights were burning,
and a fire was blazing on the hearth.
Before the fire, seated in his arm chair,
was my uncle. His face looked whittier
than ever, his hair was like snow; on
his knees he held the big family Bible,
which he was reading, tracing the lines
with the forcfngcr of his right hand.

laid her hand upon the door and sobbed,
"Father!"
L saw my uncle start nervously and
drop the book upon his knee; then he
rose. and, with a piercing cry of joy, held
forth his arms.
What followed I don't know. 1 rushed
to the kitchen door, and when I reached

CHAPTER XXI.

1t was a sight to bring tears to the
eyes of a strong man. The poor old
father-white-haired, haggard, trembling
like a leaf, and feverishly clasping the
child who had been the darling of his
days. He looked into her face-he
smoothed back her hair with his wrin-
killed. hand-he murmured her name
while, sobbing and moaning, she chung to
him and entreated his forgiveness. l
stood looking on, almost terrified. AS l
did so, my aunt brushed past me, and,
entering the kitchen, uttered a cry of
surprise.
"Annie!"
The tone Of her voice was harsh and
cold, and her face was stern indeed. Re-
leasing herself from her fathers en-
brace, my cousin turned to her mother
with Outstretched arms.
"Yes, mother! l have come back!"
But my aunt, with the same stern ex-
preston, repulsed her, and the poor girl
fell back with a pitiful moan.
"Bide a bit! Wha brought zee? Did
you COON back alone"
I'VE came home together" 1 said,
stepping forward.
Let me look at 'ee!' cried my aunt,
suddenly approaching her daughter, who
hid her face and sobbed. what, can't
ZEE look your mother in the face? Nav?
Then away wi zee, for you'm ma daugh-
ter O. mine!"
My uncle, who had sunk trembling into
a chair, looked up, amazed, as she con-
tinued:
"I.nnL ot rnur fo+ho,f AaI. ~ Al.
shame and trouble you'm brought upon
him! A year ago he was a happy man,
and I were a happy woman; but now
look at us both now! Better to be dead
and buried than to COON back var, bring
ing sorrow on folk that once held their
heads up wi the best!"
L was lost in amazement at my aunt's
severity; for never for a moment had l
anticipated such a reception. Hitherto,
indeed, my uncle had seemed to take the
affair most to heart, and it was his atti-
tude toward Annie that l had most
dreaded.
Come, come, aunt" I said. "You
must not talk to Annie so. There has
been trouble, nc doubt; but it is all over
now, and everything can be explained"
"Whar has she been all this while,
tell me that? She left O. her avn free
will, and she comes back O. her W
free will; but till l know what she ha'
done, I'll ne'er sit down or break bread
wi her again"

Annie, addressing her words to me, but
still hiding her face. LET me go! l
wish l had never GOMEZ
And she made a hurried movement to-
ward the door, as if to fly. Seeing this,
my aunt relented a little; though her
manner was still harsh enough. At this
moment, my uncle rose.
ANNIE" he said, "dawn't heed moth
er. She dawn't NEAR it, my lass-she
dawn't mean it! Whate'er you'm done,
this is your home, and you are my child
our little lass" Then, turning to his
wife, he added, "Speak 10 her, wife.
speak kindly to her! Maybe she'll tell ZEE
all her trouble"
His broken tones, so pleading and pitt
full, melted the mothers heart. With a
wild cry she sank into a chair, the tears
streaming down her face.
"Oh! Annie, Annie! may the Lord for
give ZEE for what you ha' doner'
Suddenly mastering herself, my cousin
