Accordingly, next morning ~ Guy was

went tripping up to him, and folding hse
white hands upon bis shoulder, said, vssy
prettily:

A. Guy acquiesced in this Suggestion, she
sat down ct the writing desk. and con-
menced Q very pleasantly worded note,
Ia which Miss Clyde was informed that
she had been recommended ~ Q suits bic
person with whom to leave Jessie during
the summer and Q part Of the autuESn.
and that she, Jessie's mother, wrote 70

enside as governess, or waiting maid.
"Or what?" Guy asked. ~ she read to
him what she had written. "Maddy

house, neither will she come for a dol

myself. have taken . fancy to the
girl. Commence again substitute COM
pauisn for waiting maid, and offering her
three dollars per week instead Of one"
A long % Guy paid the bill Agnes
could not demur to the price. although
remembering Z time when she had taught
. district school for one dollar per well
and bsarded around besides. shs thought
three aealars Tar too much. But Guy
81 commanded. and him she generally
obeyed, - So wrote another note, which
he approved, and sealing II up sent n
down to the red cottage.
1t was the doctor who carried Maddy's
answer to Agnes, the doctor who made
al the succeeding arrangements, deciding
that Maddy would not be wholly strong
until the very day 6xed upon BY Agnes
for her departure for Saratoga. For this
Guy was sorry. 1t would have been an
easy matter for him to have ridden down
70 the cottage. and seen the girl in
whom he was beginning to feel 20 much
Interest that In his last letter to Lucy
be had mentioned her as about to become
his sisters govcrness; but he did not rare
to sse her there. 1t seemed to him that
the surroundings Of that slantipg reofcd
house did not belong to her. and he would
rather meet her In his own more luxuri-
Gus home. But the doctors word xas
Law. and 70, On the FIRST day Of August,
he followed Agnes and her three huge
travelling trunks to the carriage. and vas
driven from the house to which Maddy
was coming that afternoon.
