Mrs. Harvey accepted the gift with
perfect simplicity. She looked like a
different creature in the new gar
ments. Before noon of the next day
Mr.. Harvey assured Alice that in all
his forty years he had never been
treated so handsomely. Mrs. Harvey
soon forgot her perplexity over the
astounding number of spoons and
forks that surrounded her plate at
table. and was able to enter into a
very quiet and demure enjoyment Of
the drollery of Mr.. Mason and his
young wife. Day after day Alice
went with them to conference, and re-
mained through the sessions.
One day she noticed how the old
mans face always lighted up when
the bishop began to speak. But moth

/ hind, so before the first meal was con-
| cluded the conversation was general,
if not very absorbing in its interest.
There followed an hour or two in
the library, and then Mrs. Parker said
to the minister:
u am not strong enough for late
hours, Mr.. Harvel Will you not have
prayers now?"
This was another unexpected turn.
for Alice had not entertained min
lister before, and there ensued a fur
ried hunting for a Bible. Finally
she brought. from Mrs Parker's own
room. the big family Bible. Alice
deposited it, with an effort, upon the
table at the minister's side. and men,
tally resolved that the next day she
would buy one of more convenient
size.
The servant, sister," asked MT.
Harvey. DO you not have her come
in for Worship" Then came brief
but energetic argument in the kitchen
with Jane. who finally came in. with
a sulky frown, to sit down by the
library door. Things were taking a
strange turn in the hutterfiy's nest.
but Mrs. Parker lay back in her chair,
and as Alice gazed at the sweet,
placid old face. it seemed to her that
she could see the golden light OF past
days dawning over il. The country
bride sat still, regarding her hus-
bands countenance reverently. and as
Alice's eyes wandered, she met her
husbands glance. His eyes held no
laugh in them, although he smiled at
her anderstandingIy. and strangest of
all, when the reading was finished,
James lowering face had cleared. and
she slipped quietly out of the room
without even shake of her express
sive shoulders.
Ny granddaughter has made some
pleasant plans for you. my dear. %
said Mrs. Parker the next morning
to the bride. I'VE are so glad that
our delegates are as they are. We
had expected two gentlemen, but |
always prefer a lady. One gets so
much better acquainted, you know"
Alice bit her lip. She had ordered
the carriage, and had intended put
ting it at the disposal of her guests,
but she certainly had no idea Of CO.
ing out with them There was noth-
ing for it but to acquiesce, however.
when Mrs, Parker told Mrs. Harvey
that her hostess would take her to
the church and remain there through
the opening service with her. Alice
considered that she would have to
reason little with her grandmother
privately.
Alice pointed out the pastors house
as they drove by. and Mr.. Harvey
looked at it with interest

and clasped hands with Mr. Harvey.
