"If I jneant it I was crying the baby,' stated the man-coldly, and Miss Sarah imew tbat be vraa r<>buking falinself. "I could care for such a girl—yee. £ut I doubt if I -would marry a woman who bad even the amalUat doubt. There 4ure too many aharp places to bo amoothed orer without «hanclng that tragedy of discontent. We merely Jiablt tbat's to blame again, that's all.*' He cast about for a parallel. "One does not miss (ugnr so very much from a meal until he Uuo->vs he can't haiie it. And then—well. Miss Sarah, I haVf many tlnie« talked peevishly, fur a man, beoau«e there was none to bo bad."
"We are talking of women. Wbat about salt?" she bKiulrod quickly.
"That is very indispeimalilo, t«''0. but"-
"Of the twe which do you alwav-i take care shall not ba atisclng from yonr pack whenever yott tnm into th;- woods r' "I see where yon are beading; bnt"- "I do not Uke dissemblance. Stephen." sbe warned. "Yon know wltbont tlie aalt of lore tbe sugar of Itfa cao f)rrow alAenbiigly cloying."
He did aot win bla arguBMat, but defeat gave him far more bandness than could have eome from victor}-. Leaving her that night, be closad bis band over ber delicate flngera in a «laap wblcb left her smiling in wonder after be bad gone. Sbe watelied barse aad rider disappear into tbe wbitenass of the new winter till both we lost to ber sight.
"Blesa tile l>oyr' sbe murmurat then. ''Bless tbe boyr And to Caleb, ber brother, when tie came stamping in: "I aorely must take a hand wltta tliese children. Tbey taave l)e«u ieft to tbelr own devices long enontirb."
Caleb bad recovered blx good natnred  lew of the wbole affair: he was given to grinnliij; those days at her flutter- tngB. On more tliau one oceaaion he told ber uone too aatteringiy tbat sbe made bim think of an offlcloua ben witb a brood wbicb a bigb rata oi'

But this iiiirticiilar witticisu did not bother hor in tlie least, per¬ haps because she roall/od how pat tho eenparlsou was. Instead ot slIcDolug htan sbe nliowed hiui tho letter which she constructed some dnys later—«on- ¦tracted most painsiakinKiy tbe second waak in Itecember. iiibe deigned to SSad It aloud to him before sba dis- patcbed It on ita Journey.
''Barbara, dear child," she wrote, "this ts tbe apiieal of a lonesome apiu- SlK lady who fluds that wlutar, still ealy a lustj infant here, is tbe seasou ISr yennger, warmer pulses. I am very of Caleb's continued company— ia, wttb nothing to laaven It Tba at apJigraawnarlan^ ny dear
oecomes very commonplace, you Know, to ears too long tuned to one voice. So I am writing; you in dignitied despera¬ tion to come to me this holiday season. Caleb is not always as epigrammatic as I could wish. I am going to be positive that you will come unless you bave already made other plans. And, on second thought, if you have al¬ ready done so I am going to fall back npon the privilopod tyranny of one who once carried you in her arms. You must come to nin this ChristniasI"
There was another wlinlo paragraph of rambling, repeated arguments aud then a full paRO devoted to the beau¬ ties of the hills and senson.
"Tho days are din mond brilliant." she wriite, "nnd the nl;rhts ns dryly coid nnd '-rlsp as Caleb's fow Inst clior- Ishod bottles of charniK'.L'tio.

It was si:inod "Yonrs. my dear, Sa¬ rah Hunter.'"
There was a quaint twist to lho letter "S;" sharp auidos in tiie ciiirin-'mpliy which a newer docndo of feiriiiliiity might have found sndiy la'Uiiii,' in k iargeuoss of loo[)s now indis;iensnlilo as Indication of "ciiaracter." .Vnd therjB wns a postscript, of course.
"Stephen O'Mara has been several times to dinner since your departure. He Is working vei"j- hard, but most suc¬ cessfully, I am sure, for he appears to be very happy. Ue Is thinner tlmn be was, but who could have guessed that the boy he was would grow to be sucli a handsome man! Meu with eyes like bla and such voices used to break tlic hearts of susceptible maids when I was sixteen.   Do come!   S. H."
She read it aloud from beginning to end, uor did she falter much when Ca¬ leb greeted tbe postscript with a shout of Joy. Caleb was most high spirited those days, for the line in regard to tbe progress of Steve's work was iu tmtb an understatement if anything. even thongh tbe assurance of hts hap¬ piness might have been called n mls- coDstruance of facts.
••What do you think of itr* his sister aaked pleasantly, wheu she taad flnish¬ ed reading.   "WUl it-do?"
"If you mean will It fetch her, I emm only say heaven knows!" Indeed, he was enjoyiug himself. "You feal posl- tiva tbat stae cares for talm, yoa say? But I thought you were alwaya in¬ clined to believe Steve rather easy to look at, even aa a boy?"
"I waa," maintained Misa Sarah. Her voice grew girlista. "Do yau remember the night you gave him my old huntiag coat, Cal, uud he went to aleep witb it in bla arms?"
Some of the teasing note lett her brother's voice.
"Tben why do you tell Barbara—why do you seem to infer"— He floundered hopelessly.
"Stupid!" said Miss Sarah. "WUI sbe come?"
"She won't r' he stated solidlj'.
Wbeu be spoke in that tone .Miss Sarah always chose to believe the cdn- trary, and events in this iustauco proved her right. Barbara did I'ut wire. She wrote a long lotter fnjl ct little twists and turns whi.li led ;it last to the sulijoct which -Miss Sanib had mentioiiod sc parenthotunll.\.
"I'm dolishted at the prospect of get¬ ting awa.v irniu towu for a week." she Closed as sho had opened her leply — "delighted at Mr. O'.Mara's splendid auceesH. Ijist niglit 1 overheard ln¬ tber telUn.c; some business assi«ci;ites tbat he would one duy be the biggest power bl the north country unless sometbing happened to check liim aoon. That was very flattering, wnsu't Itt It wiil make you very proud, I know.

Tbla reply Miss Sarah also read aloud to ber brother in a voice that was nut ^mte Chrlstiaa, however, for it mma gloating in tone.
'^bere!" sbe breathed. "And, Cal, arent yoa ashaaad sometimes to have your Judgment so often refuted by a BMr* woman?"
"ISbe faH.<i to mention wbather sbe ever noticed tbe color mt bis eyes"-Caleb ebokad a Uttle-"or—or the beartbreak- lag quality of ttis voice. .Maybe she baan't noticed 'em yet bei-sehf. eb'.'"
Uiss Snrab went upstairs to ber desk, and she wrote two letcers thnt nigbt befure she retired. Oue weut to Barbara. Tbe otber taad not ao far to travel, but it waa longer in rcacbiug ita deatliiatlon.
