fro the dipper. Finding it uot cool
he suifted it out coolly right on the
floor among sotne pans that had slip

Ashe took the hatchet and started
but toward the wagon to fix the hay-

' 'Jane, if j qu can as wi;l as not,

"Wei', I'll try." she said, hopelessly
and she slipped her shoes off so that
she might step softly.and with more
comfort. All working women know
wliat a task it U to put a disodcrd
kitchen into neatness, especially when
little children have been about. First
she strained the mil!.:, taking out a
quart, with which to mix the bread,
for the yeast was set the night before
and hnd'beer: h bhlinr two hours ; she
mixed it and set it in the warm sun
shine, then started a fire and made
feed of skim milk and meal for the
noisy. IVolicksomc calves that ran in
the door-yard. TLen she swept and
picked up playthings after the children
hung up their eoats and aprons, and
set their old shoes away, and moved
their sleds and wagons and hoops from,
about the 'doors.-'
While the dish-water was beating
she hurried up-stairs and made the
beds, then washed the dishes, and went
down the ceil ir and skimmed the milk.
There was cream enough for: a churn
ing, and the " churn was scalded, and
then left a pail of cold water standing
in it. so as to be fresh and ready. By
thi3 time the baby woke and cried, and
tired little mother wa? compelled to
sit'dovyo jyul take him in her sheltering
arms.
In half an hour or so he was ready
to sit down on the floor on a quilt, and
she leftfhinl long enough to carry three
or four pails of the skimmed milk to
the pigs two pail-fiils at u time, and
.she went on the run. She
olwaj-s fed the pigs : when she asked
her husband once to carry tljie milk to
the pen on his ivay out- to ;h:3 work,
he said. "That belongs to a woman's

ted the taby on his foot thai night
and he ifal'ed his little wife Jenny, as :
in the days when he won her, and he
let Johny pl y horse with , Lis boots,
aud there was surd a contented, rich
man expression on his face that his
wife 'could help wotidering what had
made such a change in him.

The next moyiing thc crazy old rig
was called out again, and the soft
blanket spread in it, and John Jones
took the lines in his emanciated hands
i
and drove off in the same direction as
he did the day before.
When; he returned he wqs accompa
nied with a broad-shouldered, good
looking German girl, whom he intro
duced to his wife &3 "our girl."
She I'ipked witlv amazement upon
"our girl," then stared at John.
He soon explained - things to her
satisfaction.
"The upshotj'o' the matter is, Jane
that I've!' bused you long enough ; the
Lord helpin' me I'll never see you
make a drudge o yourself again. It's
a burninl shame for a great lout like

hoardin' up money and means to leave

5-our plate an. work in yoiir stid, an'
you'll livo hereafter like a human

By tli e time the speech wa3 made
the poor; weak fellow was blundering
like a whale.

Poor little surprised wife ! She flew
to his neck ami laid her head on his
bosom and cried like a baby, as she
said :
'John

So with the memory of Jang syne
