T In.Ht it was lin- isheil ami it was biich a lino, cnu- venient li a r ii , Kiu'li ft model in nil respcctd, tlial Oiles Hewitt felt hia excessive priile in it n per¬ fectly jiistitiable tiling. .\h he stroUeil alioiit in this sultry .fiily uiurnlnp, survey¬ ing it friini all points of view, he conlil not re.slraiu his oft-repeateil encomiums, ".\ilinir- slile! Ailiiiirable! Fine! None bet¬ ter iu tlie country," then, ns he spieil Esther, his wife, looking for early apples in thcorchnnl lulow, he railed ill hia soft, slow voice, "Como np here,   TsllKir."
The call tioiililed her. She hnd no lime to spare, na this waa a very busy moruiug, crowded with work, and tho girls, Itia aud Klla, were eiiiirossed with pre|iaratiou9 for a picnic at Point o'Rocks, on the lake, that af- leruooD. As tor tho barn, how thor¬ oughly she kuow it, from the shiuiug cow that served as a weather vano to tho fouuihitiiiuH. It ba.l beou the alaplrf of dilea' coiiversatinu foi- uiiinthi, and she I'.iitl.l not toll how mniiy tiui.'a hIkj hu.l lueukly followed lu his wake to survey its couveu- iencgs.
"Esther, do you hear me?" The soft voice waa distinctly peremptory, (iilea Hewitt always expected hia womeu folka to come at hia bidding.
She put dowu her basket tilled with red Astraohaus and weut reluctantly up the hill.
"I want you to ape how well thcae doora work now," said (Iilea, li-adiug the way to tho rear of tho buildiug.
What a grand view theae donr.i framed! It alwnya struck her nitli a sense of loveliness quite iiiexpreaaiblc iu worda. Hhe drew a long aighiug breatU aa ahe looked uu wood aud mellow, diiupled dells and swelling hllla, I'liitreh apiii'a rising whitely fi-iiiii bowery hiiiuleta and a river winding afar liko n silvery ribbon. Northward a bluo lake glittered like a jewel in su emerald setting, and iu the west a circlet of hills vanished delicately like a dream iuto tho .softly tinted sky.
"How beautiful!" she said. "It reata me just to look. I could ait here uu.l look, juat look fir houra! Oli. (iilea, if the liiiiisi. oulv Rtniid hen. nu tliu hill, ami 1 eoiild only nee all thia from the kiteheii door!'
"The houae ia in tho beat placo, Esther, sheltered from the uorth wiuda. I don't umlnrstaud why you are alwaya aayiug t'lat. "
She aiijlieil. "Yes, I kuow, but such a view ia foo.l aud reaV. Oh, I kuow you think me silly. Yea, 1 am truly glad you have aueh a big, con rouieiit baru, aj luniiy nice lalior-aav ing things ahout it; it must be goii.l to have ihiiiga ua you waut them;" she beg.iii to pleat her iiprnu hem ut.r- viiiisly. "I ivaa tliiiikiuglhat uiiwthc barn ia liui.-'he.l un.l all tho .-riipa an |iriiinisiiig ami thn hay crop i.. ao large, that you will bo" willing to Icl mo huvo tho dnnr i-ut tlirnif-rli thi- south siili. of till' kilchi'ii. Vmi know hnw long I huvo waited In hnve it doue'i'"
She looked an wiaifuUy meek, ataud- ing there wilh a timiil. depncuinry miilo on her lips. She hn.l never Ii.'en a self-a-iaertive wnmau- im one knew that belter than (lilea. Never theleas, he felt annoyed ami aiigere.l. Ho had nut called her up here to ilia 3iias her wliiiaa,
"Y'liu kudw." ah." went mi, "I jiial want a eoiiimoii door with a glass saali, and theu I'd like alitlle atonp run mug tn the en.l of tbe house. 1 eould .In the churning out there, aud lota of liitle chorea—the kit-^lien ia so aiiiall and hot—aud it won't cost mueli, lohuaou calculated he eoulit do all I wauled for forty dollars. '
".Tohusoul" hia toue was distiuetly angry.
"Vou see, fliles," she pleate.l the apron over and over, ipiito lluatrated at hia iiereeptilile aiiuoyaiiee; "it was when he came down to ihe lioiiao nue day for a .Iriiik of biiileriiiilk—aud ynu know what a hand he is io joke - ll.) snid, 'Thia ia a sort of unhandy kitchen, Mrs, Hewitt; you'd better move up 1.1 your liiisliaud'a barn and have it airier and handier,' Tlieu 1 told him how I wanted a Innr eut Ihruugh ou Ihe snuth ami «e talkc.l it

Tben, noting Ihe ipiiveriiig of her lipaan.l the tears iveliing lienealh her lida, he waaiunn- angered than ever nu.l went on irate ly "Enr fnriy years my nmlher iiied that kilehi'ii ami I iie\er hear.l her complain, but..-..nue wniueu waul tin- world, and havwii; thai, woul.l ery f.ir Ihe tuo.in.

She lame.I awav wilh.mt a wor.l and nent down tlie"liill to the ..rehar.l liars. She wipe.l her eyes liefore she look up the apples aul trudged ba.-k i.l tho hnnae. The girls musl^ uot see the tears. '

••Probably pa has .alle.l her t . Ug hltu about the barn," tail Ilia, whn waa deftly alL-i'ig pink ham for 1.011.1- wK'hea. '"Thai barn ia tin. Inib if his universe )ii«l n.n—hi. been fnr »n months.

,Suo shrugged her pretty shonldera. "Say, Jo tell me if thia ham ia thin euough. I waut my aaudwiches to bo first claaa."
Giles Hewitt was distinctly taciturn at the dinat-r table that noou, and in view of his lowering countenance tho mesl proceeded iu uupleasaut si¬ lence. Immediately after dinner ho made ready to drive to Hoyt with a load ol grniu. It waa aecoud nature for Esther to aTninusly wail .m him when ho dresse.l to go anywhere. She alwaya put out hia chillies, brushed them, tied hia cravat, aaw that ho had a clean handkerchief, but to-diiy he told her coldly to go about her work, ho would help" himself. Presently he ejiine into the kitchen wliero she waa washing the disliea lo lilaek.n his shoes. Phew, hot it was, nu.l how liark that liitle e.iriier where the Clacked sipiaro ol looking class hung, before which ho fumbled with his cravat!
Esther stood at the sink wilh her back lo him, nud just opposite the trap door was a white croas chalked on tho rough wall boards, marking the spot where she wanled tho outer dcor ont, Hoinehow tho sight ot Ihe lunoceut mark augered him again. She seemed lo have ehalke.l it f.ir a purpose, aud he weut luit slnmuiiug the door childishly. » Presently the girls camo iu all in a flutter, lookiug very pretty aud dainty iu their aimple lawns and big hats and quite overllowing wilh the pleasitar- abie auticipaliona of youth.
"It waa a ahsme, mother, to leave you iu thia hot place to do the dishes aloue," said Ria, peuiteully, 'but wo had to make ready. See, the AVurren boys aro driving in the gate now." They kisaed her and llultcred out, and ahe followed lo tnke a look, a foud, proud look after tluun as thoy rode away with their cavaliers.
It waa almost iuauffei'ably hot that afteruoou; the mercury mouuted higher aud higher iu the tube on the stoop, the fowls went with dioupiug wings snd gaping bcska, tho cattle sought grateful shade aud ruminated in shallow poola, the houaa dog dug a grave behind the currant bushes in which he lay paDling with lolling tongue, .vegetation fshriveled aud willed, the eurth wna cracked and baked; but by and by elouda galh- ered iu the weat aud giiata of iviu.l caprieioiialy swirled the dust and caught u)i atieka ami atruiva in elliu ilaucea. An old farmer driving by called to a man digging a ditch in a Bold, "I giioaa the dry Hjiell is luukeu. .A shiiwer ia cniiiiug np." The ho lashe.l his wet, jailed toaiu so us to dialauee Iho storm if possible.
A gloom almoat appalling Bellied on the landscape, Ihe bees llew to the hivea, the cattle snorted and raced abont, frightened at Ibo rolling of thunder aud the shooting of javelins of lire from the jagge.I clouds.
Thero waa a going in tho tree-tops, a strange, diataut murmur of niilliona of raiu drops advancing wilh the swift- uesa of n mighty hoat.
"I wonder if (lilea abut the baru iloiu'i'" said Esther, huiying out; then there was a thuuder-elap that seemed lo ahake tho uuivorso to its founda¬ tions, and a blinding, swirling deluge! It waa four o'clock when Oilea Hewitt jogged homeward. Dixey and Topsy, hia big black marea, reaeuted beiug held (Inwii lo a aober gait and tossed their heads aud annrte.l ns Ihey splashed I liroilgh puddles. The clayey mud cake.l the wheel rima, si leaked the apnkea and elitii'.; in teiiuciiiiia lilnlia in the hulia. Everywhere wero signs of tlieatnrui'a havoc, nud tiiles una ciiuaeinua of certain ugly misgiv¬ ings leat the iie«- barn, the pri.le of Ilia heart, might havo aiilTered; lull nn, aa he tiiriie.l a cnruer he a.iw it ail- liouette.l oil iis hill, doniiiiiitiug iho lands.-upe, the ahiiiing wealher-vaiio all a.^leam with reileeted glories of the west.
Ho breatliod more freely now and critically acaiiuo.l his ueighlinr'a lields lo aee what datnago had been wrought,
Wheu he came iu aight nf bis white frame house ho wondered to aeeu niiiu- lier ol people in the yard. Then ho said, "Uy (leorgo, il theoldelm hnan't lieeu alruck.     What a shame! "
Dan ('only, hia ueiglibnr, hurried In raeel hiiu aa he turne.l up Hie.Irive, Ilia face waa gliaatly. What ou earth ailed the mau'/
"1 say, Hewitt"—he clasped hia hands mechanically aa ho called — "atop a minute—hold on — I want to lell you —(.oil .Almighty! man, how cau I? The lightning atruek—Estbor's dea.l!
