bargain, as any' agriculturist 'iii*|p%J country side. 1 • ; As for Reuben and the two oftlaW ers who did the farm-work, they had i^ accustomed to look to "t_*'nt_jt^f, 0T everything, and bad not ail idea' o f their own. Now they would turn to 'Winifred for their daily guidance—and how'was sbc to guide them ? Must she confess ignofarlce and bid them rely upon their own experi ence ? Her (common sense at once'de cided against that injudicious alternative. She must accept the responsibility, and for the present, at all events, do the best she could. "Well,-Reuben," she said, "Iwiilcome round presently to look at the chaff-cutter." " Ees, Miss." " And you may tell Joe Tunnicliff that I will i=peak to him myself about the gate In the meanwhile, you can take the maro over to Purkin's, and ask him to shoe her at once." " Ees, Miss; an'—an'—" "Well, what more?" "Nothin*, Miss; ;on'y-on'y, please, Miss, I be so sorry." > The tears welled up again • but she kept them back. V "Yes, Reuben," she said gently, "I know yon are sorry; but please don't speak about it, please—at least not yet awhile— till lam better able to bear it. Do yoa understand ?"'' Reuben touched an imaginary cap, made his scrape, and vanished silently. But he understood so well that in less than fivfl minutes he had warned Joe Tunnicliff aul tbe labourers to " keep a still tongue, , and say nowtaboot th' owd missus; vor 'twar more nor Miss Win'fred could bear. And presently Miss Winifred herself came out, marble pale, with a Btern, set look about her mouth, and went the round, of the farmbnildings, just as her aunt had been wont to go round daily; giving ah eye to'the poultry-yard and the stables, making sure that the cob was well cared for, in quiring after the welfare of the sitting |hens and the litter of young pigs, and seeing' that the cows had 'a plentiful meal of ihay cut from the new stack which Reuben des cribed as "binderthe wood-shed."1 Then, when all this waa done, and Joe Tunnicliff had received hia orders about the gate and the chaff-cutter bad been duly in spected, she unchained the St. Bernard, who had been straining frantically at hia collar ever since hearing her voice about the yards, and started for a long, solitary walk. ;:;..'■ « It no longer actually rained • but it had been raining almost without intermission for the last teu days, and the country reeked with damp. The moat was well nigh brimming over; the lanes were strewn with wet and rotting leaves ; and a white steam brooded sullenly above the flooded flats. But Winifred was content with the weather. To her it seemed that Nature was in tune with her own mood, and that anything was better than bright skies and sunshine. She walked fj_.t, taking the diiest paths she could _nd', and avoiding the most fre quented. All she wanted was to be alone; to go.lbmewhere, no mattlsf* where,' to1 do something, no matter what; to shake off, Ihougk but for an hour, the dead-weight of ,_er solitude.: |i.'" : tfafljjj*^ ." For, crabbed and imperious though she might be, Miss Langtrey, after all, was the only mother whom Winifred Savage had known. And the old lady had .one her duty well and fairly hy her orphan niece, loving her next after the brother whom s he so idol ised, educating her as well as she knew how; and setting her from first to last a brave ex ample under poverty and privation. But now the very mainstay of the girl's life was struck away. Of what comfort was it that the struggle with poverty was ended ? She told herself that, without Miss Langtrey, she, would as soon be poor as rich. Even hor joy in the redemption of the mortgage wa. turned to bitterness. She would scarcely grieve now, she thought, though The Grange? were sold to a stranger. And then, what wan she to do with her life? Mrs Pcnnefeatherbad said only yes terday that she could not go on living alone in the fold house ; and though she declared at the moment that she must learn to accepts. her lot, she felt in her heart that the Boli tude was more than she knew howto bear. By and by, perhaps, shi might be able to levote herself to the placjandthe people; repairing The Grange, improving the land, rebuilding the cottages and schools, and striving to be as helpful and practical as ber lunt would have been under these helttred 'ircumstances. But for this work she was lot yet strong enough. Self-dependanoe is aot learned in a day ; and ehe instinctively 'elt that in order to acquire it, she needed some stimulus from without, ""' If she could but get away for awhile— .way from the sympathising faces, arid the familiar sights and sounds of home ■•'. ■ . that that would give her strength; that was what sl*e needed. But then Winifred was as ignorant of the outer world as acloistered nun. When quite a child, she had been once to Scarborough, and twice cr thrice to Rhyl; but tbat was in the days when her , Uncle Stephen was not yet ruined. Since his death, and for many a year before he 1 died, she had ijiot known what it Was to spend a week from home. Yet she was fast making up her mind fo a bold step, though in what direction she knew not, One thing at all events, seemed clear to her. She must make her plati -at once, before others should begin plabiirng for her. She must make it at oncei'ah-, carry it into effeot with all possible promp titude. Th\-a would she be spared the psm . of rejecting well-intentioned counsel; and ayoiif tho equally paiaful consciousness that she was a burden and a source of anxiety to those around her. By "those around her" she meant not only Mr and Mrs Penne feather, but I ancelot Brackenbury.. J,,: Where, then, could she go? ShetteW, of course, that there were numbers of good schools in France, Belgium, an_ Germany, where she might live asm a heine, ari-Jiave , what is called "the benefit of masters." There was [one at Bt**,ttgard, for instance, j where a neioa of Mrs Caldicott's' bad boarded once. for nearly three years. Mrs Cald;oott herself was educated at a certain famous Institute at Zo]le_3trasse-am-Ma*n. Then there was Munich, i ;.'. » , Had she not quite lateiy read the narrative of an English lady's life as an Art-student' in that modern Weimar: andmight it not be possible for her to do •likewise! Rome, again-r-but Rome was too far away; ana Paris was too cay, and London too vast. It must be Munich. Munich was neither . too lively, nor 100 distant, nor too.mg. ' Munich was studious. In Munich the could work; and above all else, *««*•*■.■. ■ for occupation. . Yes, ber mind was maaa np ; she would go to Mantel). .* ', v . ' Tol>tC*9tiw?si-HWMtii!<!(i.-
