BY AN OLD CONTRIBUTOR, Ir was a bleak December evening, freighted with icy winds, blind with the blackness of a coming tempest. Rachel Simmons drew her scanty shawl closer around her as she hurried down the street, where the wind had already blown out half the flickering gas lamps. ‘* There is no light in father’s window,” she thought. ‘* Or, at least, none but the faint shine of the fire. Father is getting more absent-minded than ever. To forget to light the gas !” She smiled to herself as, with her little key, she opened the door, beside which glimmered the white-painted sign, ‘‘Apart- ments to Let,” and hastened in. _ Seba Simmons sat before the fire staring into the bed of dying coals. Rachel went up tohim, and placing one hand on his shoulder, leaned down to kiss him. ‘* Thee’s tired to-night, father dear,” she said cheerily. ‘* Thee hasn’t lighted the gas, and look how low the fire is !” Friend Seba rubbed his hands together nervously. ‘*Yes, I am tired, Rachel,” he said, ‘**but thee has not guersed right after all. The gas is not lighted because the man has turned it off. Hush! I don’t blame the man. He only did his duty.” Rachel colored. Clothing 2 Ary ae 4 = % * Lae g nis 1868. SPRING ARRIVALS. 1668.

But the little ripple of public opinion had hardly subsided, and the blue and gilt painting of the sign “‘D.

He could have got three times the money,” snarled Car- son. ‘*But there aint no understandin’ these Quakers.” At about the same time little Rachel, with her face all alight, was confiding her good luck to a friendly neighbor's ear. ‘*We have bought a farm,” said she. ‘* Father has always sighed for a country life. Hewas born and bred, thee knows, on a Pennsylvania farm. And there isa store on the place where David can make money enough to render us independent of bad weather and poor crops. And we are so happy !” ‘* And it is better, is it not, daughter Rachel,” said old Seba, ‘‘ than to imperil our souls and the souls of others by lending ourselves to the devices of Satan in regard to that lottery business, even thought it came to us vailed in a fair outside show.
