"Do you owe debts?'1 "Cer tatnly 1 You and I are bath very heavily n*kD*l»jf.* Ithink when Aunt Mary tok us in, poor little orphans, I her nephew, yo.u her ttW <-°»8m> al *?* money she saved in a life of hard work wa< ipent upon our-educ tion.

"But you could send her money, if you TOe in tbe city In some gentlemanly occupation." " Perhaps s>, ten or twelve years from now! To r*ay I propose to work this farm and see ho * many bushels of corn I can raise on it." He took hold of the plough handles as he spoke, (started the horses and 'eft her, her eye? full of anpry teirs. "He might as trell have fald whaf ho meant," she thought, springing down and stai-tin-" for the house. "He thinks I ought to cook, and make butter _dwork like a servant girl, when I hive studied so hard and ,tried to make my •elf 4 laity that he might tiot be ashamed of me.'1 Asshe drew near the house the sling d John's words penetrated more and more though the crust she-had drasvn over her heart,"until a frech stab had met her at the door. Lqoking in at the open door, she anwhite bead bowed in weeping, a slight figure shaken by sobs. Quickly through •lithe selfishness, self-repror.ch struck at tlie girl's heart, and in a moment she was on her knees beside the low chair, her arms Hound the weepiug woman. "Oh, Aunt Mary, what is it * Oh, please don't cry so! Oh, what has happened?" "Why, Daisy, dear"—through sobs that would not be checked at a moment's notice -f Mddn't roifid me. I'm only tired, dearie -only tired."' Could she have struck deeper? Tired! At seventy housework doei become a weariness! At seventy it may. Seem as if one ought to rest, while young hands and active feet take up the burdens. She was very tired, this patient, old women who had given her lifes work for others; first for her parents, then for an invalid brother, lastly for the orphan children^, with such innumerable acts of fleighbouily kindness as only the recording angels of good deed s knew. Well might she be tired !It was new to her to be caressed, to have tender hands lead her toiler room and loosen her dre*s, a tender voico coax her to lie down. " Now 1 will darken the window," Daisy said, and yon are to rest! Sleep, if you can, until dinner time." „" But Daisy, you cannot make the owner,'' ... "I will try," was the quick reply; and amrt Mary submitted. Washing the Po' a,oes; shelling peas, frvmgham, making »»>, all allowed thought to be busy, and mi sighingly nut away seme of her day oreauts over her homely tacks.

It is a strong, handsome, serviceable, well-finished, nickel plated, reliable timekeepor for 13s 6d. Why should I give £5 or £10 for a watch that has to be perpetually undergoing re pairs, and at the best of times cannot be relied on, when I can buy a perfectly re liable, strong, and handsome Waterbury Watch for 13s 6d 1 A Well-regulated young man — An " Always on Time " young man—• A "Just on the Minute, good for ail's in it" - A Waterbury Watch young man. Because the Waterbury (price 13s 6d) is a simple but reliable timekeeper, do not be gulled into buying any other nickel watch on' the assurance that it is equal to a Waterbury. The Waterbury principle is a patent, and cannot be imitated. Many " cheap " metal watches are offered from 5S each to as many pounds, which are not worth picking up in the street. There is only one Waterbury, remember! Messrs E. Porter and Co. have arranged with one of the leading jewellers to repair any Waterbury at a fixed price, according to damages, of from 6d to 2s 6d—no repair on any account to exceed the latter sum. Any watch mailed to him will be promptly repaired and returned. Postage and cost of repairs will, therefore, never exceed 3s 6d to people jiving in the remotest part of the colony. The Waterbury is the cheapest reliable timekeeper in the world, and costs less to repair. Hundreds of thousands of these watches have never cost their owners a penny since they first acquired them. Waterbury watches the world. Why does Waterbury watch the world ? Because the world needs well watching, And the Waterbury is the best watch of all.
