Mrs. Jacob Berry was not a person
to he easily refused. Bo when she told
Mr. Berry that the correct thing for
him to do was to give the girls the
profit of the poultry yard, Mr. Berry
consented, on condition that he should
be spared all care of the fowls.
Not many days iater Mrs. Ilerry
ruade her second demand, namelv, a
proposition that all the money from
butler selling should be hers. Mr.
Berry, who began to icar that no ready
money opportunities would be left to
him, was slow to consent, anti when at
last he yielded the point made the
dition that the
bail*
the
the
new
iloon,
con
arrangemeot for both
butter and poultry profits sliould only
continue for one year, and then, hav
ing made ibis last concession to the
women of bis family, Mr. Berry
walked off sulkily to bis most distant
meadow, feeling disgusted with him
self and hoping inwardly that Squire
Layton and old Mr. .Junes would
learn of his weakness
He was never short of butter, as he
had inwardly predicted, nor did he
need to complain of the scarcity of
eggs, for hot, buttered toast, poached
eggs and delicious omelets were
heaped upon his table. But no one
else in bis house lived so riotously, for
Mrs. Berry and her daughters were
hiding deep and well laid plans for
money saving and money getting, and
rigid self denial was a strong feature of
their scheme.
The four women seemed to live that
year only to work and save, but with
it all they were happy us birds Their
wonderful spirits were the talk of the
neighlKirhood, which immediately be
gan to search for the source of suoh
I>erpetiial pleasure A clue was found
at last in some carelessly-dropped
words of Mr. Berry's, and Squire Lay
ton and Mr. Jones soon attacked the
good man, as he feared they would,
forcing a confession and pitying 1pm
for his weakness while upbraiding him
for his ffily, which they said, would
set every woman in the parish on to
persecute her husband into doing the
same thing that be bad done.
Boor Mr. Berry after awhile began
to look upon himself as a much-abused
man, and made no secret of his deter
mination to order things differently
when the year was up. He even at
tempted to make Mrs. Berry
sider and give up the privilege ol the
butter money, being instigated by
Squire Layton, who Lad an inbred be
lief that ''women toiks, even the best
ou 'em, warn t fit ter be trusted with
money.
swer his wife made, hut she said it in
a jolly, cheery way that so far braced
lum up that he could not get low- ;
spirited, even when the squire walked
into the barn, as lie did nearly every
day, for "a talk on matters and
things," as the men were wont to call

They've had extravagant

The women ot the neighborhood

most exhaustive manner and by their
trequent, ill timed visits of discovery

At last the year was within a few
days ot its expiration ami oue bright
spring afternoon Mrs Berry asked
"Pa.'asMr Barry was cal led by his
family, to take her out for a tew "ar
rants." Surprise made Mr. Berry al
most incapable of harnessing the old
roan to -the Boston ebaise, that was
bought- the year of their wedOing,
when his wile went on to tell him, as
they jogged along, that her mysterious
errands were calls at each neighbor's
door to Invite them one and all to a tea
party.
"There'll be too big a crowd to sit
to a table," she explained at each
place, "but we'll fix up some stands
an' manage somehow.''
Pa looked quite limp and disconso
late aber the last bouse had been visit
ed aad the horse's j ink nose was
turned cheerfully toward home,
"you're sure, be yer, ma, that you've
got the means in hand fer entertainin'

These talks had lately become very
dreary, for Jacob Berry and the
squire had both adopted the idea that
the former s affairs, having fallen into
the hands of women, were swiftly go
ing to the bad.
Mrs. Berry had always been thought
a little strong-minded. She was never
afraid to speak in meeting, nor in open
Sunday school, nor to read reports at
the Women's Auxilliary Missionary
Meeting, nor to do anything of the
kind. She was a resolute, self-reliant
woman, but so kind-hearted that she
was a general favorite In the commu
nity.
She had been too much engrossed in
something during the past year to be
much like herself but she was the
same dear, old woman they had al.
ways loved as she welcomed her guests
when the day oi the tea party came.
They had been invited for five
o'clock, and at balf post live the sap
per was served. The parlor and sit
ting-room communicated and both
rooms were full.
Tables hud been improvised with
flanks, and boxes and other devices
relped out the inadequate supply of
chairs.
Cynthia Berry, the oldest daughter,
who lor the past year had made con
stant and mysterious trips to town in
Ihe old farm wagon, had bought on
her last trip dozens ot wooden butter
plates and hired some dozens of coarse
ware mugs, so there was no lack of
things to eat and drink from.'
The fare provided was solid and de
licious, and it is difficult for a faithful
historian to retrain from describing the
toothsome viands that were so lavish
ly provided,
Auer every one was satisfied, the
solids succeeded by coffee, elly and
cake, and the steady work of the hour
by lively bursts ot conversation, Mrs.
Berry, from her position In the door
that connected the two rooms, cleared
her throat in a premonitory manner,
and with a smile on her broad, pleas
he
a
8
SL
ant face, began to expren her joy at
meeting their friends and her thanks
to them for coming.
"It ain't considered out the way
nowadays," ehe continued, still smil
ing, but with a shade of earnestness in
her voice, "to hsve speeches at din
ners, an' I've got in my mind to make
a sort of speech, if our friends won't
take it amiss."
"I know there's been a sorter feelin'
against me an' the girls hero,
been a growin'nigh a year, i'don't
say but what our doin's has seemed
kinder secret an' strange, but I wish
old iriends had had a little more confi
dence Ihst we was a strlvin' for a good
purpose. ' I'm prepared now to make
a clean breast of it an' tell you all
candid why we was actin' just

tnat my husband's cousin made us a
loan on this farm twelve years ago,
when we put up the new barn and
painted the lence. It warn'! a big
sum, but it got bigger after awhile

poultry profits, ttien the butter money,
an'I tell you wo have put that busi
ness through pretty thorough. There

whole year by us women folks, au' I
the pains I ve took to make the butter -,
somethin' extra is more'n I can tell, ,
But it paid,tor I've got five cents extra «
a pound for it right along
"Bvery other day in summer, au' 1
twice a week in winter, one of my S
gi is has got up at 3 an' 4 o'clock an' J
hitched up her own horse an' started I
off' to town an' served customers he- |

"Lucy, she's made up little nosegays
an' sent 'long with the rest, an' bilks
generally bought 'em pretty ready;
an' she's also made jelly an' jam, an'
canned termattuscs an' sold 'em to the
butter customers, an' bottled up fruit
sirups for eatin' on puddings, that's
luid a great sale.
"Jennie, she'B worked for all of us
to give us a chance to 'tend to our
work, au' me an' her lias made cake
regular to send in every time the
wagon went. A baker gave us a
chance to put the cake into his win
dow with a paper in front of it stating
it waa old-fashioned, real, home-made
cake. An' bless you it went off like !
smoke, an'we could sell tons of it if
we'd nothin' to do but to make it."
''I tell you," she went, on grac
ing around to meet very lriendly, ap
proving looks from all her guests "wc |

mornin' an' late at nights we've been'
at it, an'my girls ain't had u hit ot j j

anybody, not a halt hour for a walk

there ain't one cf us that's had a new

you know, 'cause we could look after
her chickens an' she thought she'd get
more at that season at teaching An'
through it all wc never was happier
not one of us, though 'twas a kinder
trial to sec old triends sorter gettin' pa
