The scenery was delightful ; the old home itself looked like a grand old ruin. There were five of us—my three sisters, wy aunt Pauline and my- self, ‘Delightful !’ said Sara, as she glanced around the room. It was evening, and we were gathered around a fire of blazing sticks in the great chimney of the room which we decided must have been the, ‘best parlor’ of the dead-and-gone rotry who had inhabited Bubbleton Tange. ‘I mean to write a piece of poetry about the broken sun-dial in the flower- garden,’ said Nina, sentimentally. ‘I wonder which room would have the the artist of the famity. ‘But you must remember, girls,’ said I, hugging my knees and staring Grange.’ the philanthropist of the family.’ if it hadn’t been for the charming stu- artist, brought us to Bubbleton.’ which I was accustomed. ‘But do you think, Marjorie,’ said bees ?? ‘With a netting, mask and gloves— ves,’ said J. ‘I mean to makea profit out of the business,’ explained Helen. ‘Oh, I don’t know,’ said I. ‘I never made a profit out of anything yet. But bee-culture is full of possibilities; at least, so the manual says. And there are four or five rows down at the foot of the garden, with atienst a dozen hives in every row. Suppose each hive to net $5 a season——’ ‘Ob, Marjorie, Marjorie !’ cried Helen, isn’t the way to calculate. ‘Isn’t it? Well, don’t let us calculate to-night,’ said I, witha yawn. ‘ We are all too tired—and this firelight is too glorious. Hark! Isn't that a cricket on the hearth? ‘The dear little harbin- ger of good, how pleasant its tiny voice sounds. Oh, I’m sure we are going to succeed.’ To explain things properly to the reader, I must first acknowledge that Sara’s estimate of me was perfeetly cor- rect, Practically speaking,.I was a failure. I had broken hopelessly down in my examination to become a school teacher—I had bungled in the very rudi- ments of art—I was too poor a mathe- matician to reckon change behind a counter. Even when they compromised matters by making mea companion to an. old lady who was willing to pay a moderate salary to some one who suited her, I spoiled all by falliug asleep when I was reading to her, and forgetting the daily bath of her darling poodle. And when Aunt Pauline read in the news- paper an advertisement of a bee farm to let, she grasped at the opportunity. ‘will start Marjorie in bee-culture,’ she said, ‘aod if she can’t succeed in that she can’t succeed io anything. And, we can all live out in the country a great deal cheaper than we can iu New York. Sara aud Nina cap come ivto the city every day to give their lessous—Helen can have a studio somewhere in the house and prosecate her art work—and Marjorie, poor unlocky child, shall have one last chance.’ ‘Do you suppose,’ said 1, reflecting after we had listened to the cricket's chirp in silence for some time, ‘ that there is a ghost at the grange?’ Sara pave a violent start. * What nonsense,’ said she. ‘It would make it very romantic, said soft-voiced Nina. ‘I haven't heard of a ghost,’ sad Helen, ‘ but I’ve heard of a very elegant gentleman who has his country-seat at Austey park, close to our boundaries— Mr. Gerald Austey.’ * Young? said Nine, eagerly. pidity of our younger sister, who would | astonished vision. neither be a scholar, a shop-girl ner an! prehendod the whole in a second, and, Aunt Pauline never would have{seizing me around the waist, he swung me lightly over the wall into a small, ‘Exactly,’ said I, not in the least dis-}circular summer house overgrown with comfited by this sisteriy raillery, to|scarlet blossomed honeysuckle. gentle Helen, ‘that you can manage the|will go past us. eonsly. pew neighbors, best of friends, Miss Marjorie. slawating her hands in despair, ‘ that) up, and, without disturbing Helen, I rose and dressed myself and stole softly out into the garden. ‘I mean to take a good look at the bees,’ thought I. Karly as J) was, my little. winged charges had been before me, and were soaring forth iv tiny clouds of blackness toward the level] morning sunshine. ‘They must love to work better than I do,’ was the upshot of my meditations. ‘Horrid, fussy little things. What have they done to deserve being held up to ail creation as a model ? Aud then I began, Alnaschar-like, to count up the possibilities of making a fortuve within the next ten years out of these beehives. prosperously-—supposiug that honey held best light for my easel,/ mused Helen,/its own in the market—-supposing that each swarm duplicated itself half a dozen times over—supposing—~ Supposing that all went But in my abstracted saunter up and ecstatically into the fire, ‘that if it hadu’t!dowa the narrow pathway I lost sight of been for me you would never any of you | outward surroundiugs aod unconsciously have crossed the threshold of Bubbleton | stepped backward, cverturning two or three beehives at once. ‘I think,’ said Sara, sarcasticaliy,|enraged inhabitauts of these invaded ‘that we must vote Marjorie a medal as|cities, armed cap-a-pie—away flew I pell-meli and screaming ‘ Help! help! ’ ‘We must bear in mind,’ obseryed jinto the very arms of a man with a gun Nina, aptly following Sara’s lead, ‘that/in his hazd, who sprang over the stone wail, appearing as if by magic before my Out flew the Apparently he com- leaved ampelopsis and late ‘We are safe here,’ said he. ‘They Bees are.atupid crea- tures.

And then he walked with me as far as the doorstep of the old grange and to me scathless and without left me, promising to call that very afternoon ! In this unconventional way our friend ship commenced, and when ‘the first snow fel], feathery white and soft, over the hills and vales, Gerald Austey asked me to be his wife. ‘Little Marjorie has drawn the trump card after all,’ said Aunt Pauline, laughingly. ‘Oh, Marjorie, may I come upto the hal! when you are married,’ said Helen, ‘and copy those beautiful old pictures in the library ? ‘Only to think,’ said majestic Sara, ‘that a man could fall in love witha wild romp of a girl who nearly knocked him down at their first meeting.’ ‘Perhaps,’ said Niva, putting a caress- ing hand on my head, ‘it is because Marjorie has ahead like a chernub, and the sweetest blue eyes in the world. After all, I don’t know that I wonder et Mr. Austey so very much.’ And so the bees made my fortune after all, although not exactly in the way we had anticipated. ee = es deel Wound Up Every 2009 Years.
