watching the flickering flames,
and thinking of" her new position,
for that day had seen her betroth

" ' bright, dimpling smile and sunny
eyes might be taken aiS a sign, she
was a very happy Titjlo girl, in
deed. .',
1 .Horn had.not been very long in
Mapletown when lie met and fell
in love with Mary, who, on her
-part, much sis she liked his great
broad shoulders, and honest, hande
.. Rome face, was some time befor-
- she'could believe that she, .the
prettiest, most admired girl of her
set, could have"such a very -difl'er-ent
man to the'-one she had pic
tured, to herself as the conquering
hero ; her ideal had been such a
very superior mortal, so different
to good natured, jolly, but; to our
'r' Mary's ey"s who judged by .the
' Iapletowir standard, somewhat
commonplace Tom Cowell.
This Tom, too, had an unpleas
antly good opinion pi his own
people, and his birth-place; such
a wav of unoting his mother, and
sisters, anilJmeton.'and what the
..'. Limetoniatfs did, and thought, and
intended to do, and the effect of
their intentions. on the stability tf
the republican .form .'of govern
ment, that exasperated Mary, who
-' -was perfectly sure that Mapletovvn
V "was the--great centre of" the uni-
that whatever it did and
ous . manufacturing city must in
evitably be, and within a mile all
around there is the loveliest scen
ery you can imagine. Our place
is about a mile from the city, so
the dirt will not annoy you; and
you will meet such firje people
there that you will not mind the
dirt. I wager, Mary, you will
come ' away quite in love with
Limeton, and prefer it to this prim
old place." t .
"Better than- Mapletown?
JNever!
"Wall
In his proud cofnfidence he kissed
her once more,1 and left her.
. Mary felt indignant.
"I am sure we shall never get
aloiig if Tom remains so wrapped
up in his mother, and sister, and
Limeton. 'A great deal to learn
from Louisa,' indeed!"
Ma'rtf could not get it through
her little Mapletown head , but
that she was about to honor Lime
tomihGnitely by going there, and
that her Mapletown manners and
dress would be envied and copied
"by its unsophisticated people. And
now to be told that she was to
learn from Louisa! Of course she
had a little cry, and niade several
stupid resolutions, and then set
about her preparations for an early
departure, with a heavy heart.
A week later, Mary was whirl
ing along.to Limeton, wondering
what Tom's relations would be
like, and "whether they were like
to the conclusion that he was not
like the rest of his family. But
why, oh why, did lie quote them
so often? Could it be possible
that he would expect her to )iin
a similar fashion? Perhaps that
was why he had told her she could
learn housekeeping from Louisa,
i Whatever Tom's idea on , the
Subject may have been; it was evi
dent that his mother meant to
make her visit an apprenticeship
to the future life she expected the Mary. Tt, w.-is if rf;

brisk, as yet, and when tea was
announced, Mary, determined to
make talk, praised the light
bread, and the cake, and the deli
cious butter. f "
"Yes, my dear, Louisa's butter
is excellent, although , I say it.- I
suppose you know how .to make
butter, but I could take a hint
from Louisa myself, and it will
do you no harm to learn some
of . her housekeeping winkles.
Tom has been .always accustomed
to, fine butter, and I Year your Ma
pletown fashion is to churn the
milk with the butter."
" Indeed, I know nothing about
it," said Mary, forgetting her reso
lution to be amiable.
However Mrs. Cowell seemed
almost pleased to find that Louisa's
instructions would be 'given where
they were so much needed.
"Never mind, .my dear, you are

much of them if they were not
very nice? And, although all the
people-she knew from Limeton,
except Tom, had always been sug
gesfivetaf petroleum to her, they,
surely, would be exceptions.

Mary listened for a moment, in
speechless indignation, and then
said;
' "But I 'wish to bp as well
dressed when I travel, as at home:
any lady must do so." -
"All, you will lose that notion
when yoir are married; Limeton

Mary was wisely siient. It was
obviously useless to argua with
the old lady.
After iea Mrs. Cowell went to

did not feel that she co(d risk
her sparkling music after tbit ten
der old song.
During the next few days Mary
'earned to appreciate Louisa's
character without' being ie the
least tempted to imitate her house
wifely virtues.- Limeton did not
improve on acquaintance. She
could scarcely repress her disgust
as she walked the grimy streets,
sawthe vulgar, overdressed people
and then thought it might have
been her home. To change clean,
beautiful Mapletown for Limeton!
Tom had told her he would like
their home to be Limeton, but had
said that if she would be happier ift
Mapletown he would forego his
wish, his business permitteddiim to
live in either place. Not to be
outdone in genercsityvM had
declared her happiness was to be
with him. no matter where ; the
suhject had never been renewed,
but Mary had now quite decided
that ijimeton could never be her
home. She had, indeed, balanced
as to whether Mrs. Cowell would
ever be hei: mother-in-law, but as
she though! of Tom she felt that
infliction might be borne away
from Limetom .
Tom was to come the following
Saturd;T, and spend a few days at
home before Mary went back to
Mapletown. and she awaited his
coming with eagerness. She
wanted to let him knovv she cfuld
never mike hep noma m .Limeton,
before he could make any plans
she had not that appreciation of
frugality and thrift that befitted
the future wife of her son ; there
fore she was content to see that
son's cool politeness to Mary,
which she took as a proof that he
was not likely to be led a way by
her caprices.
The next morning Tom found
Mary in the garden, ai.d said :
'Under the impression that you
would like Limeton, I liad written
your fatLer's death, and then, dear Ma- her
