To receive this merit is to forget any lingering annoyance over criticism about, "And you never noticed that top bar down, Ellen?" or "that red calf out of the field-and lt as you might lay right in front of the window.

All such items fade from mind and heart—as they should-and we come blithely to a new era of liv- ing, and James is made happy by our presence. "But ho\v'll she get down off the loads?" the help pro- tested, with chuckles, and James, bless him, replied. “he'll get down all right, never you fear!" and we went to the saving of grain in a field up the rise from the buildings. He did remark, as the day wore awny towards eve- ning. "you do seem to be getting weightier, Ellen, or else I'm growing feebler" when last stooks crowning a load, we slipped down Poliﬂdf-‘Yllly along the sheaves to be received by. still stalwart arms. I

James passed the grain to Rob at the storing, while the two in the field saw to it that they did not lack material. to keep them at work. Gray clouds hung above the hill-tops, and no breath of wind played along the stubbles. A silence that we felt was ex- pectant, enfolded the countryside.
