DREAMLAND ITALY.
It will be so. I shall not sea
Thy ripening vineyards, Italy,
Nor in a hoary olive wood,
When spring comes in a southern flood.
Gather the great sweet violets,
Yet still my heart sometimes forgets
That with gray skies and leafless trees
I pass my days, but rather sees
Parched hills and silvery woods and sky
Purple as Aphrodite's eye
' A land of fig tree and of vine,
The perfect cup, the godlike win
- Of olden dream and poesy.
Unseen, beloved Italy I

the Pincushion.
Miss Peckitt was our dressmaker. She
wore" a brown dress and a white lace col
lar and was as iieat and dainty as a little
bird. Sho lived in a email square house
at the end of the village a house with
green shutters and a green fence, a white,
race that always looked as though it had
been washed that very morning and shin
ing little eyes of windows. There was a
bit of garden round the house, in which
Miss Peckitt erew the most wonderful
flnwers ' Pansies. forcetmenots and wood'
ruffe, wallflowers and daffodils, roses and
lilies, sunflowers and nasturtiums, all in
their due season made a blaze of color in
that garden till the late dark days came
lighted by the last chrysanthemums and
the garden settled down under its brown
coat to wait the news of spring that should
noma with the first yellow aconite.
Onr house was larger than Miss JeoK-
Itt's. and our carden would have made a
rnWI snore of hers, but somehow our gar
deners never erew such flowers as those.
Miss Peckitt used to come to our house to
sew. She sowed my frocks, and she sewed
my pinafores, and sat among her tapes
and pins and yard measures telling me old
stories that no one else cared about, for
fia Prv-kirt had no relatives and had al
ways, as she said, kept herself. And of all
her stories the one I liked best was tho one
about the pincushion. It was a large,
heavy cushion, and. I wondered why Miss
Ti.ckitt nHvavs brought it with her when
fSho camo for the day.
"T will make vou a pincushion to keep
Jioto " T said, "ana tnen you rnwu

"It has a brick inside to keep it steady

Tntif;t. smiled and siahed, and 1
"Oh. did you ever have a young man?
Do toll me about' him."
a in TMra nld ono is not very discreet.
I suppose Miss Peckitt was not inclined to
be hard on youthful indiscretion, though
sho would have been the first to resent it
in those of riDer years. She threaded her
needle andjxjgan :
mt irua wVion T was a voung girl.

"Tt's a lonatimo ago; then," as eym
pathetically as I could.
"Yns" she said, "a very long

Mere Miss Peckitt got un and looked
out of the window. She came back in a
moment and remarked that she had caught
a cold somehow, and I must hnvA mv
frock unhooked and be tried on. I sub
mitted silently to be unhooked, but I
knew as well as she did that she had been
crying. , n .
Time did not stand still in our village!
A bicycle factory reared its- gaunt ugli
ness by the church, and the moss grown
well was replaced by a galvanized, iron
pump. The old families moved away, and
Hew people came smarter people, in their
gimcrack way, who got their dresses made
in the county town and despised Miss
Peckitt's old fashioned patterns. And in-
aeea sne was not enterprising. . .Nothing
would induce her to make a bicycling suit,
however conventional. The changes in'
our village took mighty strides while I
was finishing my education in France and
Germany. When I came home, I hardly
knew it. Almost my first visit was paid
to the little white house with the green
railings.
It will do the ' poor thing good to soo
you," said my mother. "I fear she is hor
ribly, poor. She gets hardly any work
now, and she won't accept anything she
does not earn. The last time I sent ior
her she would not come, and when I went
to see why sho told me plainly that she
knew I didn't really want her and was
only making up work for her sake, which
was quite true."
Miss Peckitt had aged little since our
last parting, but she had grown very thin,
The house, as usual, was scrupulously
neat, but though we were close on Christ
mas there was no lire.
She did not know me at first and was
dusting a chair that was already of a spot-
lessness to shame our chairs at borne,
when suddenly she recognized me. The
shock shattered for a moment the reserve
of years. She threw her thin little arms
around my neck and kissed me, faltered
an apology for the "liberty" and then sat
down on the doubly dusted chair and cried
piteously. I comforted her as well as I
could, but before she 'grew calm again I
had listened to such a tale of poverty and
self denial as my young ears had never
heard before work scarce and growing
scarcer, hardly enough to live on, and, to
crown all, the urgent necessity for saving,
for hoarding every possible penny.
"But why?" !
"For mv fnnoral. mv Sear." she said.
I've kept myself respectable all these
years, and if the parish, was to touon me l
should turn in my coffin I- know I
should." i I !
Dear-Miss Peckitt," I said, "you know
we'd never let the parish"
"It would be just the same," she said,
though I know yon mean it kindly, and
I thank you the same. Now, you'll excuse
me getting on with what bits of sewing I
have. j.
And the needle began to flash in and
out through the white stuff.
"What is it?" I asked idly.
"It's for my burying, "! she said. "I
know I'm not long for this world, for last
night I see my Willie's ghost as plain as
plain walking in the cnurcnyara, loosing
much the same, only older, as was to be
eznected. and 1 know that's a sign.
Your needle s crooked," 1 saia, ngnt-
ing with a choking feeling in my throat.
"Let me thread you anotner.
"Dear miss," she said, '.'this is tbe only
needle I've cot. It's not so very crooked,
and a nennv's a nennv. and needles in
nennv packets isn't what they used to bo.
-Noi andI won't let you buy me even nee-

You've ' got the old pincushion there
still," I said. "There must be lots or
needles In . that. Let meempty out the
sawdust arid see. I'll put it all back very

I think Miss fecKitrs win muse nave

ble, for she let me rip up one side of that
sacred cushion and pour out the bran into
that little black tea tray with the gold
hnrder, I found in that bran 67 'good nee'

I began to put the bran back, and as I

what I have found in your pinoushion !"
A little canvas bag, and in it ten bov
owiona and two bank notes, and a little
letter. ' !
