HENRY L, PRATT. In all my travels, from Maine to Rhode Island, I've never come across a couple moro unlike than what Mr. and Mis' Kims was. Mr. Kims was one of these shut-up to-hin^elf men, and lie'd glum 'round for days over some lit'tle matter that a word would 'a' set right if he'd only been plain-hearted. Mis' Nims was all the other way— tallc it out and done with it a little hasty nnd imprudent, maybe, but she well-meaning, Mis' Kims is, and as good a woman to neighbor with as I want to see. I hev thought whether or no being different persuasions didn't work to of keep 'em upart. See, she was brought up an orthodox, and he favored the Methodists. She joined with him and laid out to do her part amongst'em, but she never was to home with the Methodists. Then, nnotlier thing, she hated a do,?, and Mr. Kims i^ust always have a great clumsy hulk, :good for nothing but to baric and eat and lie around un der -foot, while Mis! Kims,- slio marn't have even a kitten, though she set everything by a cat. And so it went. One day I stepped in to borrow Mis' Nims' cutting-board, and just as I got to the door I heard her say: "You ain't going to turn Charley In amongst my flowers, be ye 7" lie didn't condcseend any reply—not as I could hear. "Now, Mr. Kims," says she, "he's stopped on my pansy-bed and broke off a dahlia a'ready. Ain't there any other place on this whole farm where you can put liim? I don't want him here," says she. Mr. Kims' countenance didn't change moro than a wooden Indian. "I do," says lie. "There's a good bat ing of grass to be fed down, and I cal culate to leave Charley here for a spell," says he. And ho budged off as stiff as though he'd swallowed a a ramrod. Mis' Kims didn't say a word mor.e, but she gave that old dog a push that sent him out of doors with a yelp and I didn't blame her a mite, nuthcr. 1 brought the cutting-board back as they was a-settin' down to dinner, and Mis' Kims asked me to draw up tar the table. Silo had an excellent dinner Mis' Kims is an elegant cook—but not one identical word did he speak, only to ask if I'd have another potato. She seemed chipper enough, but I see a shadow pass over her countenance when tho old hors sneezed right un der the window where her piney bed was, and the dog, that had got back under the table by that time, yopped out as though somebody had accident ally trod on his tail. Mr. Kims was a great hand for rais ing colts, but she was a terrible scary creature and I expect riding after half-broken colts has given her a fit of the newralojjy many'*, the time. He was dreadful set in (lis. way— same as the general run of men aff-^ and it was like fighting the east wind to try to move him out of It. Them two used to remind mo of a pair of napajawed scissors that you can't cut with. Some might have put the heft of the blame on to her and I s'pose she did nag liitn some, and Hash out when she'd better have kep' still. I run in one day to borrow a sleeve pattern, when 1 heard Mr. Kims speaking' out kind o' gruff, and I halt ed, for I didn't wish, to intrude. (I never wear squeaky shoes myself). I di-Jn't find out what went before, but the first heard was this: "I can't please you," says he. (It beat mo-if he'd ever trrod.) "You don't like my hired men, j-ou ain't sat isfied with my breed cf cows, the color of the corn barn don't suit yc. and I'm thinking you'll be happier if we divide and separate. You've always thought more of j-our brother Asa than you do of me, anil you can be free to go to liim, so you'll be well fixed." "Why, Mr. Kims!" I heard her kind o' gasp out, and I surmised by the sound that she let fall a teacup. I I looked to hear lier burst out in her quick way, and I'll warrant ye he supposed she'd Jlarc up, and that would be the end on't. Hut she seemed duin founded. By 'n' by she said, quite quiet: "I'm sure Asa would be pleased to have me there, lie misses Sarah Jane, and so do the children. There has to be somebody at the head*to make things so. But what would you do, Elisha?'' I had to smile, for she scarcely ever called him Elisha. "1 can look out for myself," says he, and stalked off to the barn. 1 went rigrht In, and said I guessed I could tell what was in. his mind. Uo was calculating to make a home for his mother, and get alon? they two to gether. Old lady Kims never was any too particular, and now she had the shaking palsy. So I could see Mis' Kims set right to thinking how things would go to wrack and ruin under such no management. She is an awful nice housekeeper herself, and set a great store by her tilings. She made an ar rant up chamber pretty soon, and was gone quite a spell. When she came down her eyes were some red, but she stuffed it out and went on as matter of-fact as the cows coining home. "I've got to fla* around," say3 she, "and get Elislia's new shirt done and there's the pickle-vinegar needs scald ing, and the brine, too. And 1 was laying out to put up a few more quinces. Elisha is very partial to quince sauce." The next day I went over to offer my help, aud she seemsd glad to have me there. I guess she felt she must let out a little to somebody, and she knows I'm no hand to run and tell. She told me they were going to Squire llosley's to get his help about a divi sion of the property. She wanted to wait till nftcr Monday, so she could get one more wash done, but Mr. Kims had laid out to begin cutting corn Monday and Saturday suited his time best. Pretty soon she said: "I hope you'll look in and do what you can to see that Elisha is comfortable," says she. I had my thoughts, but I kep' 'em to myself, and only said I should ad mire to do anything I could. Then she hushod up and said no more. Squire llosley's wife is second cousin to me, and she had been after me to help about her sewing. So 1 thought 1 might ai well go there Saturday as any day. The squire's office is at ono side of the house, with a door opeaiag into the orchard and another door opening into a little baek room. Mis' Uosley uses this for a sewing room. So there 1 was. I had But the doof into the office »V ter money." •v-.*--:" .' '-,. -u ^v: v^4 i# ,_ on tne jar—tne room being so small and close. It was still work that I was upon, mending stoekiugi and the children's clothes, und I couldn't help but hear all that was said in the ofliee. Sir. Kims imulc the explanation of what tliey wanted, and said it was un derstood between them that ho kep' the house and far.n. I'll warrant yc! I knew he'd never yield an inch of his ground. !Ic was a man who wanted all tho land joining his, and to plant in your garden. "The bed and table stuff is hers," said he. "01», no, Elisha!" taya s'.ie, "I don't consent to that. Sarah Jane had a good sctting-out, and Asa's house is full. Besides, if I And I need more things 1 can make 'em, and your moth er's sThe'eould^nce6" ,ho™™ho I could hear the squire drum on the table, and I knew he was getting rest less. Finally he made an end of the talk by saying: "Why not let'Mr. Kims keep the downstairs furniture, and she take what is above? How would that do?" Well, they demurred, each one being afraid the other would be cheated, but at last, seemingly, let it go. and worked their way on to the live stock. "Three cows for her,'' says he. "Two will be full and plenty for me. She was always more for a dairy than what I was," lie says. "Why, 'Llsha, you are going to make beef of old Brindle," says she, "and that leaves only four." "I've concluded not to beef her, she is such a favorite of yours," says he. That was a great piee.a of news. Mrs. Kims had felt awful cut up about having Brindle fatted and killed, for she called that cow the boot for butter in the. herd. But Mr. Nims appeared firm. "And tho pigs," ho began. "I don't want any pigs! I've no uie for 'cm. What can I do with pigs down to ISaker street?" And she burst out crying. She had set a good deal by that litter pi'js, bringing 'em up by hand, ai you light say, for tho old mother died when they were eight duys old. After that it was still as death for a minute, then Squire Uosley spolca up. "My good friends," says he, "if you can't agree about living "apart, my best advice is that you agree to go on liv ing together." For a minute or two all was still again, and tho old clock tieked up like the Day of Judfrm int. By 'n' by Mr. Nims spoke rather lowi^—v "Whut do you say, Louiav "I was thinking whether we-.hachj't oughter drivo over to your masher's and see how her cough is. I'm some worried about that cough," says she. "I'm agreeable to that," says he. As I was leaning forward, caught sight througli the craak of the door of him mopping up his face with his old rod handkerchief so I sec he had felt It some. Squire Doslcy, he said noth ing. Well, I made my way home middling early, and was keeping a watchout as they driv into the yard betwixt sun down and dark, and I see her stop and pat the yellow dog that was flopping his tall on the top step of the piazza. Old Bose was so tickled that lie jumped 'round as graceful as a cow aud I knew by the looks of the back of Mr. Kims'neck that he took it in. After awhile I made an arrant to carry over a dish of Dutch cheese, nnd there they were, eating their supper as cheerful as a basket of chips. "Set up and have a cup o' tea," "says she. "We've had quito a ride this afternoon," says sh\ "We've been to WB Mother Kims, and Elisha drove 'round by the bridge. It is all of a mile further, but lie knows how skit tish 1 bo about crojs ing tho ferry iu Uncle Seth's old scow. I'm silly, 1 s'pose. Elisha an I, we think mother is getting too old and feeble to live alone, and we hare about persuaded her to broak up and come to us." She run on tor a spell, but that was all she said concerning their arrange ments. 'And—would you believe it?— from that day to this Mis' Kims has never opened her mouth to me on the subject, though she lcr.o*.vs 14 never re peat. And now. to see them two jog ging 'round together after ol 1 Charley, as content as ducks in a millpond, no body mistrusts it tno'.c e'ena'most a separation to unite them.

"Why not put the property in two piles and draw cuts, if you've no choi.ee. That would be fair," says he.
