" CI but none too Mi

McFadden." cried
honest Donald
O'Dillon, as lie rapturously suveyed the
bit of pasteboard covered with roses,
tulips and poppies. "And the varses,
Harney, read 'em again."
"A? swate as'tullps and roses.
My pretty, fall maiden, aro you;
As bright us tho sun In tho heavens,
As Uewdroes, tender and true."
"That describes the widdy, precise
ly," interrupted Donald, excitedly.
"I como to you hoping, yet fainting.
Your valentine fain I would ho;
If 'tis yes, keep on with your smiling,
If 'tis no, return this to mo."
"Yo'vo foino taste, Barney, ma b'y,
'nd whenyer turn comes 'nd yer courten
forae swate crathcr loike the widdy,
I'll do as much for ye. And now if yo'll
jist do mo the favor to present it thU
uvening, I'll count this a foine day's
work."
"Present It yourself, Donald.''
"Faith, 'nd I'm that bashful I'd blush
raeself into a favor; ye won't go back on
mo now, Uarney. Yc naden't go in un
less ye plae; ye kin wait at the door fer
the answer."
Simple Donald had never even heard
of the courtship of Miles Standish else
ho might have thought twico before
sending a stalwart youth, ten years his
junior, to do his wooing for him. In
.his eyes, Harney Casey was naught but
tho "lad" brought with him from tho
old country; I doubt if he ever knew ho
was 23,
"I'vo got to see Bodgcr about throw
ing work to-morrow, anyway," Barney
f,aid, slowly, after a moment's reflec
tion. Barney always said everything
slowly.
"So ye's have."
When Barney went out, Donald care
fully scrubbed his hands and then took
up tho precious bit of pasteboard that
Barney had ridden seven mrles to pro
cure. Eagerly he examined It over
and over, trying to read from memory
-that wonderful poem.
"It's a foino thing to be a schollard
llko Barney," ho mused, longing to
.really read tho mystic words.
"It was a lucky day fer mo whin I
coaxed him away from old Baily; 'nd a
lucky thing for the b'y.
"This'll fetch tho widdy, I reckon;
ehe's a slnsible woman, a very sinslble
woman." Then he carefully folded the
card In a bit of paper, and.just at dusk,
Barney started on his mission.
"Wlmt'll I say?" ho queried.
Donald reflected awhile, then
sTuwercd pompously: (Donald could
bo pompous when he had only Barney
to face.) "Till her cz yo'vo brought her
n valentine 'nd I want tor know if I kin
come over to-morrow night."
It was only a 20-minuto wnlk for a
youth like Barney, to the widow Mc
Fnddcn's claim.and all too soon he found
.himself at the door.
"Wish Donald O'Dillon 'ud do his own
'courtin'," he muttered, as he paused
for a moment to glanco through the
uncurtained window.
"It makes homo outen a place ter
'licv a woman around," he continued to
himself, ns ho watched tho widow deft
ly washing tho supper dishes. She
looked buxom enough in tho uncertain
flight of un open wood flro and one
fallow candle. A sound very llko a
sigh escaped Barney's lips as ho gav a
vigorous thump on tho door.
"Como In," called the widow, think
ing the summons was from her little
boy, who had gone to tho barn a few
amnmes Deiore,
Somewhat abnshed, Barney walked
in. Looking around, Mrs. McFadden
gavo a little scream, then hastened to
explain, mcanwhilo hospitably proffer
ing a chair.
"I brought yc;: a valentine."
Tho words fairly tripped over each
other as they came out of Barney's
mouth, and ho rather collapsed than
sat down in tho chair, lie had spoken
fast for once, but had never felt so
"flustrated" before.
All smiles and blushes, tho widow
proceeded to open tho package, declar
Ing tho whllo that ho was fooling her,
that uobody would trouble to give her
a valentine, though sho used to get
plenty of them.
As tho wrapping fell off, sho burst
into exclamations of admiration and
delight equaling Donald's own. Again
Harney was mentally berating tho lat
ter for not doing his own courting.
Blushingly tho widow read the verses
"ihrough twice, then turned a beam
ing countcnauco on Barney.
"This is a great surpriso to me, Mr.
Casey, but a most agreeable one. I shall
keep the valentine," she added, shyly,
extending her hand toward him.
Ho took it; what else could ho do?
his face like scarlet and lib heart bcat-
mg so loud he was sure she must hear it.
"I Ahall tell Donald 'tis y is, thin?"
''Certainly yez may."
"Ho said ez ho wanted to come over
ihcr morrow avenlng."
"Any time ho likes."
A boyish whistle In tho "near" dis
tance caused tho widow's blushes to
deepen.
"'Tis rtodgcr," she sold, sweetly.
"Shall I till the b'yes to onct 'nd have
done?"
"Ye kiivusc yer plashure," drawled
the youth in somo surprise, feeling
rather gratified than otherwise that
she should treat him so kindly and
consult him so deferentially.
There was a stamping of feet out
side, and two ruddy Irish lads, the one
ten, the other about 16, came noisily in.
"Ilillo!" shouted Bodger, the elder,
catching sight of Barney; then ho
stared in astonishment as he noticed
.his step-mother standing beside him,
imiling and rosy, a largo card in her
hand.
"Is't a litter yo'vo got, sure?" he
r.sked.
"Xo, b'ys, it's no litter, It's a valcn-
back was toward the door; but when
Donald turned a face full of expectancy
upon bim he sank onto a stool, cover-.
Ing h: face with his hands,
"By all the saints, Barney, don't tell
mo she refused," groaned poor Donald,
his arms hanging helplessly by his side,
his lower jaw dropping, his wholo nt-
titudo ono of fear and suspense. It
was then that Barney, lifting his head,
fully realized how much his news would
mean to his benefactor. Like n flash
camo tho remembrance of all this man
had done for him, of the miserable ex
istence ho had snatched him from, of
the many times ho had gone hungry
that he might bo fed, of tho almost
mother love ho had given him; nnd
a sudden resolve formed In his soul.
Indeed, at that moment this untutSrcd
Irish lad (madly in love with the widow
r.s ho had long been) arose to the
heights of a hero.
"It's all right, Donald, b'y" (he felt
as if ho himself had aged years In tho
last two hours). "Sho didn't send tho
valentine back 'nd she said ez yez could
come over when yez plaze."
In his joy Donald forgot for a time
how pale nnd quiet Barney was and how
queer he had acted when ho first camo
in; but by and by he said:
"Yez seems to be cut up tho avening,
my b'y; what alls yez?"
"I jist feel a bit faint sort o' gone
in my stomlck."
"It's tho bit of a tonlo yez needs,
Barney, n sup of beer or the loike."
Neither man slept much that night.
Donald was too happy and too full of
plans for tho future; Barney too mis
erable nnd too nnxious as to the out
come of his one little plan for the mor
row. Donald fell asleep toward morn
ing and tho younger man, dressing
noiselessly, slipped out of tho house,
running every step of the way to the
McFadden claim. Ho was sorely afraid
his courage would forsake him or words
fail him. Possibly the widow did not
look quite ns youthful nnd enchanting
in the cloudy morning light, her hair
badly rumpled nnd her toilet carelessly
made, llodger was "doing chores" and
Dan was still asleep. Everything fa
vored the wretched confession poor
Barney had to make. Tho widow lis
tened in surprise, but seemed not hall
as much put out as the poor fellow had
supposed she would; in fact, he had no
need for the long list of arguments he

Church Louden.
In the ordination of Bev. Helen Van
Anderson to the ministry and the or
ganization of the society of which she
Is now the pastor, Boston has added to
its already large number of churches
n new one, tho Chuio.h of the Higher
Life. It Is a heterodox church, nnd its
motto is "Love is tho fulfilling of the
law."
Mrs. D. H. Kirby, o tho Procopela
club, Ik deeply interested in the work
of the church of the Higher Life. This
chib Is a newcomer among the trans
cendental cults of which Boston seems
to bo tho centi'r, and Mrs. Kirby is a
woman venerated for the ocvult quali
ties which those who dabble lu the
mysterious believe her to possess. The
name of the club, when first uprang on
the public, precipitated a sudden rush
for dictionaries and lexicons. It is
fjreek. It means ndvnncement or prog
ress, especially in things obscure. Any
thing just a yard or two beyond the
frontier of natural knowledge finds its
votaries in Boston. Ilclon Van Ander
son hns been lecturing in Bos.'on for the
past two years. Her themes nere spir
itualistic, but she was careful not to
overstep the linn of demarcation be
tween the orthodox nnd heterodox.
This judiciousness saved her from the
fato of many who fail through tho ene
mies they make. Sho is an entertain
ing speaker.
Her ordination was unique, In ,thfit
she received the right hand of fellow
ship without ever having pursued a
course in a school of theology The or
dination exercises were held in Allen
hall, St. Botolph street. The space
was not largo enough to comfortably

'.Inc; 'nd a great joy has come to yer
mither 'nd yez, sure, this day; 'nd now
I'll Introduce yez to yer father, that
id to be, Barney Ca-jey, sure."
"Hooray!" cried little Dan, throw
ing up his cap and turning a somcr
fault; but Barney did not notice any
thing that was going on; ho simply
tried to open his lips to say something
to correct tho awful mistake, but
no words came'; indeed he could not
think of a single thing to hay, but his
bronzed faco grew actually pale, and
he triuibled like a man in a chill. But
Dan's antics, Rodger's hearty, if Inel
tgant: "Bully fer yez, Barney, mo 'nd
you'll make a team nt farmen'," and the
widow's sweet effusiveness completely
covered his confusion and tho oppor
tunity wns gone.
Ho forgot his errand with Rodger,
and escaped as soon as possible', though
they all seemed loath to leave hiru go.
Once alone in the keen night air, poor
Barney npostrophized something after
this fashion:
"The howly saints preserve me, what
hlr I done I To think of her taken mo
up loike thlsl I'm a ruined man Don
i.ld '11 nlver forgive me. Faith 'nd if
ho stroikes me dead I won't blame him
poor sowll Bliss her purty face, but
she's llllgant though. Barney Casey,
yez was born to luck. Howly Jlojis!
it's not mesllf ez can go homo"The
night. I b'lave sho means to marry me,
sure, 'nd it's mesllf that's long sighed
itr her In sacret, but knowen cz Don
ald hed his eye on her I'd nlver hev
tried courten her for mesllf. Faith 'nd
I bclavo courtim nnd poppen the ques
tion is a bit o' blznes3 ivery man had
ncttcr attlnd to for himself."
It took almost nn hour for Barney
Casey to go over tho way that, earlier
in tin evening, had been traversed in
20 minutes. When ho cam in sight of
Iho shanty nnd saw Donald pacing. im
patiently about within he fairly cursed
tho pretty widow nnd his own good
iqrtuie. Donald paused to stir up tbo
fire, and'Ba'rney'Tiurricd in while his
had arranged to help , win tho "lost
cause."
"'.Nd the b'ys," Barney added. "Don
ald must niver aven surmise there was
a mistake."
"I'll manage them lave it to me," she
answered, confidently.
"And after all a match between Don
ald and" mesllf is more fitting," she
added; "the loikes of yez should wait
fer some swnt young gurl."
Barney was home and had the fire
kindled before Donald fairly awoke
from pleasant dreams that were but a
continuation of his waking ones. Don
ald found the day as long as ever impa
tient lover did, but evening came at last
and early twilight sawihiro,on his way?
nor was there aught in tho widow's
greeting to make him surmise that her
dreams of the night before had been of
other than himself.
Thero was a wedding In a fortnight,
but Barney steadfastly refused to make
one of the happy family at tho McFad
den claim. Tho widow's houso was
much more comfortable and pretentious
than tho O'Dillon's, but Barney de
clared "tho owld shanty" was good
enough for a bachelor like himself.
All this is two years past and now
Barney is fixing up the shanty, while
carefully hidden away, i a valentine,
ten times finer thin the one Donald sent

tho pretty daughter of a neighbor liv

How to Make the Hair Ware.
Soft, natural-looking wuvfS of hair
are made by rolling the hair over large,
halt papers or kid curlers, rolling from
tho top of the curl towards the end.
The hair should be wet and left on the
rolls over night. If that is not done
pinch the curls with a hot iron. If you
wish to have the hair set out around
the face turn the teeth of your side
combs toward the face, not nway from
it. Catch them through the end of J
your waves and you can fluff the halH
us little or us much as you choose.

Spaghetti tlmbale makes a pretty

hetti around the mold, holding it in
place with a layer of force meat. Fill
the mold with boil.'d macaroni and
cheese. Make a layer of force meat
thick enough to give the timbale sta

in a slow oven for 30 minutes.

all ways is this ornament that ono for
gives the extravagance which ate up a

description of the new embroidery, and
from it the following directions are
taken:
Sequins nre most effective when
massed, and one of the prettiest wayi
of doing this is by overlapping them.
The little knot of ribbon shown in the
Illustration is ndaptcd from an old
French design nnd is a good example
of a single line of overlapping sequins.
It should be noted that certain loops
of the bow pass under others, and that
the center is formed by a moderately
large sequin, in the middle of which is
ft small one, and a gilt bead on top of all.
To work this or any similar design
stretch the material in a frame and
lightly mark the desired outline. Bring
a needleful of silk from the wrong to
the right side of the work, lay a spangle
with ono edge touching the place where
the needle came up, push the needle
through the central hole of the sequin
and thus to the wrong side of the
work, bring it tip again half a sequin's
length from the lower edge of the for
mer sequin, lay another spangle close
above the thread and push needle again
back through the center hole to the
wrong side of the work. Repeat from
all along the outline.
The bow in the illustration was
worked on white batin nnd with the
tiniest gilt sequins procurable.

Do Not Let Tea Staid.
If only one pot of ten can be mado
for a family taking their luncheon at
different hours, every housewife should
see to it that the tea docs not stand
with the teagrounds in it longer than
from three to five or seven minutes.
After that time pour the ta into an

away. If you hove only one teapot,
infuse the tea in some other ve&sel,
pottery of some kind is best, and pour
into the pot. In this way the injurious
