"Mornings aren't like they were,. Ellen. Just listen to that clock-you'd hardly believe it was so late!" James observed drawing on his socks. and stooping then to peer beneath the shade to take stock of the day. ,. ' 0 e 0 "Women must have a window here and another there" a builder ocmplained to us recently. "And what do they do when they get them? Put shades on and draw them half-way down! Then hang a pair of curtains-or sometimes two, over these. and in case you can find a small place to look out, they fill sills with plants! Now l ask you. why do they want win- dows in the first place? To my mind we put them in houses to admit light and sun and air. and on the other hand to be able to get a View oi the outdoors!" so James bent a bit to be better able to re- gard sky and pond, O O t "Not clear day now at five, I rec- kcn" he observed. "Well, the sum- mer's gone, isnt it Ellen? But looks as though this will be a pretty good harvest day We'd better hurry a bit. There doesn”t appear to be too much dew so we can soon get to work at the cutting. what a task it is-that field was so hater- ed by the wind-storm! But we're getting it down. R.ob's a fair-good hand on the binder." A sow leit her grassy couch to stretch langld- ly and stroll nearer the bars, An- other rose...and another. And the smcke plumed upward from the chlmmney of the house on the hill. A heron flew past our line of vis- ion and the duck and her lord and master waddled down the short-cut towards the pcnd. The "gobbler" called throatily from the poultry-house across the yard. "And Ellen" James turned at the door- way before descending the stairs "dcn't let those confounded hetis out to get in the way of the cut- ting!" And our day was begun. 0 C O In the near field they harvested. the same one which slopes to the stream below the mill. sometimes in the colder seasons the cattle go down along there to drink, and it was along there in spring the mail- man detoured in the interests of the bridge-building "above." This work of the day brought the fam- ily together, the housewives at- tending to the preparation of the meals and each contributing a share of food. Various fetchings of Karclyriis "for fear it might spoil at homel" and nipple ples of Jeanie's for the dinner-dessert. James looking up from an empty plate wistfully declared la: all and sundry in a. puzzling way: "Itis a funny thing and -something I don't rightly understand. But when El- len serves a pie, it can do one or a dozen!” "That" Jeanie laughed "is why it pays to have girls leam Geometry!" O I I And we found it exceedingly pleasant to watch again the gold of the sheaves shed from the binder and see the farmers on quick steps. fci-in an orderly pattern of stocks about the field. The canopy of sky was azure above them and the mellow loveliness that is Autumn's own, rested on fields and hilltops. Shades deepen now in the wood- lands, those beautiful melancholy colors which proclaim the year's ripening...Youngsters nibble ap- ples these days, and search out the fattest ears of corn in the gar- den. They reach up for the purple of the ripening sugar-plums and lay cisiml to this or that comely pumpkin nestling in its bed of green leaves saving it against the witchery of the Hallowe'en night. For the same event brown cat- taiis come to their maturity and mirror bhemselves in the stillness of pond-side, ' O 0 And the near field was reaped by evening. the stocking extend- ing lnto the irwiiight, and plans were made to ecntinue the harvest- ing tomorrow on the reaches oi the other farm.
