The Accurate Scot.

A Scotchman stood on the platform
Of a little wayside railroad station in
the south of Scotland. The distin-
guished characteristic of him was the
perfect illustration he afforded of the
studied %captiousness OF the average
Scotchman. The station master fell
into conversation with him, for they
seemed acquainted. And what did

Two days later we laid little Berthe
to rest among the roses in the pretty
graveyard, while Amy lay lowering
between life and death, unconscious
for the time of her misery and her
loss.
As soon as Amy was strong enough
Aunt Jane carried her of to New
York with her, and a little later an
nounced her intention of adopting
Amy and making her her heiress. So
one day Amy will be very rich indeed;
but in my eyes she always will be
Amy, sweet, gentle Amy, in whose
brown eyes will ever Turk the sadness
Of the loss which will leave its marks
forever on her loving, constant heart.
