W \ H v that evening for
*
< s p what Miss Field always -
ways denominated
" old-
a "sociable , -
fashioned j tea , " which , in the country ,
was served at the town dinner hour.
"Could you obtain no conveyance at
,
the station ? "
"None unless I chose to wait sev
eral hours. Surmising at once that my
letter ] had not arrived in season to no
tify j you of my coming , I left my bag
gage j in charge of the station master
and set out on foot. I pleased myself
when I was here two years " ago with
surveying ! an air line between your
house 1 and the nearest point of the rail-
road. If ono does not mind some pretty
steep hills , he can save at least two
miles hy availing himself of my topographical -
graphical skill. It was a pleasant va-
riety to me , after rsx hours in a narrow
car seat , to stretch my limbs over the
rocky pass and breathe the fresh air of
the ' wildwoods instead of smoke anil
cinders. "
"The hiystery to me is how and
Where you met Mrs. Withers ! " chirped
vivacious Harriet. "Do explain ! I was
never ] so astonished in my life as when
,
I saw you two walkiug up the avenue
talking 1 together like old friends. "
" " Edward at his

sister-in-law. "Sht , vas sitting at ihe
, '
foot J of a cedar net , ' my projected road ,
enjoying the prospect beneath her. I
recognized her from her resemblance
to | the photograph you sent me while I
was abroad , Elnathan ; walked up to
her ] , like the impertinent fellow some
people think I am ; introduced myself ,
and j offered to escort her home. "
"You should have taken a servant
with you , Constance , " said her husband ,
magisterially. " / ' is not safe or proper
for ] a lady to raJ jle alone in this thin
ly-settled neigh jorhood. "
"There are charcoal burners in the
mountains ! " Miss Harriet interjected ,
shudderingly. I "The most ferWous
looking ] creatures , with long ' .rds
and black faces. I saw one oncej hen
we were driving out. And there , , ised
to be bears , when the country was first
settled "
"And wolves , and catamounts , j.nd
red Indians with no beards at all , " fin
ished the younger Withers warningly.
"Mrs. Withers , let me advise you to
take me along whenever you stir be
yond the garden fence. I saw a Rocky
Mountain savage once , and last vear
was one of a party that went out on a
bear hunt in Norway. We saw nothing
of ( Bruin , it is true , but my instructions
how to act in case he crossed my path
were sp minute that I am confident I
should prove a valiant protector in
time of need. "
The invitation thus playfully given
was renewed in earnest on the follow
ing day. The brother and sister-in-law
were excellent friends from the mo
ment of their meeting. The traveled
meniber of the eminent banking firm
of Withers Bros , was about 30 years of
age , and attractive in person , rather
from a certain grace and elegance of
bearing , and a frank , intelligent ex
pression than from regularity of fea
ture. He had read much and seen
many lands , and knew how to use the
knowledge thus gained for the enter
tainment of "his companions. A passion
ate lover of music , he was not slow in
discovering Constance's kindred tastes.
His coming gave a different complexion
to life in the secluded country house.
There were horseback rides before
breakfast , and diligent practice with
voice and instruments piano , flute and
violin , besides a couple of hours' read
ing in the forenoon ; then came the
after-dinner walk , seldom ending un
til sunset. In the evening Elnathan
Withers dozed in his stuffed chair while
he tried to beat time to the duet going
on at the other end of the room , and
Harriet , bolt upright in the middle of
a sofa , did wondrous things with a
spool of cotton or silk and a crocnet
needle and took obserations with her
beady eyes.
She was discreet as to the result of
these. For 2ught that could be gathered
from her words or conduct she ap
proved entirely of the growing inti
macy between the married lady and
the agreeable bachelor. Elnathan was
not si man of fine feelings and strong
affections. He had made up his mind
to marry because a stylish wife would
add to his individual consequence and
adorn his already princely establish
!
ment. Constance Romaine pleased his
critical eye , and captivated whatever of
fancj * dwelt in his practical nature.
Yet , having wedded , he trusted her.
She offended him sometimes. He often
wished that she were interpenetrated
with something of Harriet's reverence
for himself ; that she would put forth
more effort to anticipate his wishes ,
and conform herself in all respects to
;
his ideas of fitness in demeanor and
conversation. He was never harsh in
his 1 treatment of these deficiencies , but
his pertinacious schooling , his curbing j
and dictating , he portentous shake -
of { his head and solemn curvature of ?
the < brows , irritated her to the extreme
of forbearance.
Edward had -not been twelve hours
in the house before he perceived this
endeavor on his brother's side to mold
a mature woman into the likeness of
his prim ideal , and the effect wrought
by it He had suspected it in the course
of his initial interview with his broth-
er's wife upon the mountain. He never
told her that , attracted by her singing ,
he had stealthily neared the 5-pot
where she sat , and , unseen by her ,
been a witness of the tearful struggle
between her real self and Fate. He
had pitied her heartily then , while
comparatively ignorant of the reason
for her seditious emotion. His com
passion was more profound as he hoti
ter understood the relations between
the ill-matched pair. Had his personal
liking for his new sister been less de
cided he would have pronounced her
unhappines3 to he the righteous punishment -
ment of her crime and folly in having
linked her destiny with that of a man
whom she did net love. He had known
dozens of other women who did the
same at the bidding of similar motives ,
and Ilis sympathies had lain dormant.
But tliis one h u ! henrt and intellect ,
and both ere famishing.
I have said that Mr. Withers' sensii
bililies were not lively , nor his love in-
tense. But of all people living this , his
only brother , had most hold upon his
heart , most infiuenco upon * his judgi
ment. Ke made much of him after lis
formal style ; listened with obvious respect -
spect and secret pride to his opinions ,
and conceived the notion that his wife
was highly honored when Edward singled -
gled licr cut as the object of his
marked attentions , and did not ( lis-
guise the pleasure he , the lion of many
brilliant circles , took in her society.
This fullness of confidence in them
both , and his unselfish regard for his
nearest living relative , might have be
gotten softer and kindlier sentiments
toward him in Constance's breast but
for the palpable fact that he encouraged -
aged the association , not because it
brought her enjoyment , but as a means
cf prolonging Edward's stay with them ,
"You seem to amuse my brother , " he
said to his wife one morning , as ? he
was arraying herself for her ride. "His
admiration for you is highly compli
mentary. I trust you will leave no
means untried to induce him to remain
w ; " us some weeks longer. It gratifies
me n see how amicably you get on to-
.
"gether , and the friendship is especially
creditable to Edward , inasmuch as he
was universally regarded as my heir
prior to my marriage. "
"In that cass he deserves all the courtesy -
tesy I can show him , " mused Con
stance , going thoughtfully down to her
steed and cavalier. "I do not know-
many men who would be so complaisant
to a stumbling block in the path to
worldly advancement. "
The conversation would have thrown
her off her guard had she ever consid
ered it prudent to be wary in an .isso-
ciation at once so natural and inno
cent. She had always liked Edward ,
and was growing to like him better
everjr hour. They were' near the same
age. and , being of harmonious temprra-
ments , they usually enjoyed the same
things. He was good , kind and spright
ly ; amused and interested as much as
Mr. Withers and Harriet wearied her.
This was the reason why the sun shone
more brightly , the breeze was more
odorous , her favorite exercise more
inspiriting on that early midsummer
morn than these had ever been before.
"T can hardly believe that I enter to
day upon the third week of my sojourn
in this region , " " said Edward , when the
steeply-rising ground compelled them
to slacken their speed.
"Is it possible ? " The exclamation
was not a polite and meaningless for
mula , as Constance brought her startled
eyes around to his. "It seems a very
little while ago that you came to us.
You do net think of leaving us soon ,
I hope ? "
"I cannot say positively how long I
shall stay. This visit is a welcome ex
change for my long wanderings. This
my brother's home is the only one I
have in America. Yet I was dissatis
fied with it last year. Elnathan was
often absent you know best upon
what business" smiling meaningly ,
"and , to be candid with you , our cousin
Harriet is not the person whom I
should voluntarily select as my only
companion in a desert. But for my gun
and fishing rod I should have commit
ted suicide cr run away and left her to
the tender mercies of the Hibernian
domestics and the bears. I would not
be so cemmunicativet touching her to
any but a member of the family. But
she is one of my betes noires. I : iever
liked her. "
"Nor I ! " answered Constance , ener
getically.
"Then , my little sister , you and I
should unite our forces to counteract
her influence with my brother. His
disposition is , in some respects , singu
larly guileless. He believes that Har
riet's officious regard for his comfort
and deference to his wishes and opin
ions have their root in sincere attach
ment for himself. We know better-
know her to be as mercenary as she
thinks herself cunning , and that she
clings to him as the leech does to him
whose blood is fattening it. I lose all
patience with her fawning and flat
teries when I recollect that these are
the tiicks by which she hopes to earn
her living , and , at his decease , a com
fortable legacy. "

whom society forbids , upon penally of
banishnient from the circle in which.
she was born and bred , to seek a live-
lihnod by manual labor. It is easy for
men to talk of freedom of thought and
action. The world is before them. To
them the bread of charity and dependence -
ence mean one and the same thing. The
latter is the only nourishment of most'
women from the cradle to the tomb. I
wish the passage between the two was
3hcrler for their sake. "
"J never looked at the subject in that
light : before , " was Edward's remorseful
reply. "Poor old Harriet ! I Bee now
how : much more she merits pity than
contempt. > "
"She is no worse off than thousands
of i her sisters , " said Constance , in
harsher : judgment. "Content yourself
with giving thanks that you were
born a man ! "
She had spoken out of the pain of a
wrung spirit , with no thought of pleading -
ing : her own cause. She was too proud
to 1 murmur , least of all to her hus-
band's i brother. But the conversation
was a key that unlocked for her in his
heart ] recesses of interest and sympathy
which must else have remained forever
barred I against a woman who , whatever
were her virtues and fascinations , had
deliberately i bartered hep charms end
perjured ] herself in order to secure an
eligible i settlement.
"And , to do her justice , she is superior -
rior to the practice of thearts thatmake
Harriet 1 acceptable to my brother and
odious < to everybody else , " he meditatj
ed. < "She offers no profession of devotion -
tion i to the man she lias married , while
she : accords to him the respectful duty
of i a wife. Elnathan seems satisfied.
Perhaps ; he craves nothing warmer.
Pray ] heaven he may never guess of how
much ] fate has defrauded him in withholding -
holding ] from him the free , glad affec
tions i of a true woman ! "
If there were any changes in his be
havior ] to Constance after this , it was
to i be discerned in a gentler address , in
unobtrusive i regard for her wishes , expressed -
pressed ] or surmised , and a prolongation -
tion 1 of his stay in a house that held so
few i attractions for her. That this ar
rangement ] was highly satisfactory to
his : brother was not without effect in
shaping his conduct. That Harriet plied
him with solicitations to remain before
his decision was announced , and was
loudly voluble in her protestations of
delight i when the question was settled ,
had : not a straw's weight with him.
She ] annoyed him less than formerly ,
however , either , as he explained it to
himself , because he had learned charity
from Constance's defense of the lonely
spinster's : policy , or because she kept
herself more in the background than
was her wont. She seemed amiably
disposed toward Constance , too , and he
strove to credit her with kind inten
tions with regard to one whom most
people in her situation would have
hated as a usurper. She abetted what
ever project of outdoor excursion or
domestic recreation wa % proposed by
him for Constance's diversion , offering
herself as the wife's substitute in the
sober ; phaeton drive on breezy after
noons , that Constance and Edward
might act as outriders , and never
failed to call the husband's notice to
her graceful horsemanship and the
brignter bloom planted in her cheeks
by the exercise. Mr. Withers never
tired of chess , and the indefatigable
toad-eater apparently shared his zeal
on this point. The board was produced
nightly as the days became shorter and
the evenings cooler , and music , reading
or conversation upon art and litera
ture was carried on for hours by the
remaining two of the quartette without
interruption from the automata bent
over the checkered surface.
For Plarriet could be taciturn when
need .was a very lay figure in dumb
ness as in starch. Whether she ever
ceased to be watchful was another mat *
ter.

Constable * ' Stave * in tlie Pasr.
The home secretary , Sir Matthew
White Ridley , has just secured from
Northampton two relics of the past that
are peculiarly associated with the de
partment of the state , of which he is
minister. These are two staves , at
once the badges and instruments of
office of the village constables of long
ago , when men's lives were consider
ed of less account than they are now.
The stag of those days , probably 200
years ago , was a formidable , not to say
bloodthirstry , instrument of offense.
I have been able to obtain one of the
same sort. Mine was formerly the
property of the parish constable of
Brington. England. It consists cf two
parts truncheon , or handle , lathe
turned , ten inches long , and a sphere ,
three inches in its longest and two and
a quarter in its shortest diameter.
Both handle and ball are of boxwood.
They are united by a strong double
thong of white leather , fastened by
iron pegs into apertures bolted into
both handle and ball. The ball has
two inches of play on the leather , so
that from end to end the instrument
is fifteen inches long.As the ball
hangs loosely about the straight han
dle some degree of force is required to
bring it into action ; but when this is
done the execution the weapon is
capable1of is something dreadful. A
moderate blow cannot be struck by
it ; with very little exertion on the
part of the holder a man's head , leg or
arm would be very easily broken. No
doubt some such powerful weapon was
required in the "good old times. "
