Dr. Gibson, having made an unprofcsafonal visit to Mrs. Kellicott, walked down to the gate with her asughter Matty. > Matty was 20 years old, and the Doctor was 30. Her eyes were brown, snd his were gray She **had on * o pink calico dress and a white muslin apron; he wore eloan, cool-looking linen clothes, and a wide Panama bat. The gentleman admired the lady's fowers very much, especially the white roses,—one of which, by the way, she bad tucked under ber car. Bhe fnquired with considerable show of Intercst about the Ruggles children, who bad the measles, He told her gravely all about Tommy snd Ben, Allce and KIt; and, when he had finfshed, a silence fell upon them. Matty was leaning on the gate, looking down the village strect. Bhe thought bow funny it was for Mr. Beott to paint his now house pea- geeen with lavender trimmings, and was about to say 50 to Dr. Glhson, when he stopped her: lc eald the very last thing she would have expected to hear. Hesald: . *Matty, Ilove you, and want you to marry mel” ‘The very look in the bright, browneyes would have told him, without a single spoken word, how thoroughly unlooked-for such a proposal bad been, She had never, fu all the years she Yiud known Dr. Gibson, thought for s moment of the possibility of his loviug her. Bhe was very sorry, she told him, but she didu’t love bin one bit, at lcast in that way., But tne tcars came into licr eycs as she saw the quict face grow a trifle pale. #1 hardly belleved you did care for me," he went ou, after o pause. ‘But I hoped you might yet learn to do it.’* 4 But—but—" said Matty, with embarrass- ment. “I thought every ons knew I was eu- gaged Lo my cousin Tom.! “Your cousiu Tom 1’ echaed the Doctor, It wan tmposaible to mistake the impression which passed over his fuce. It was not merely person. nl regret at the fact she aunvunced, but an im- partial disapproval of the match, He made no cownment, however, hut directly said: * Matty, T shall never get over this—I mean that 1 shiall always love you, and, If you need n friend or prow«:lur’ or—ur any oue, you'll come to me, won't yout” She promised and held out her hand to him. 1fe ehook it warmly, sald % God bless you ! and left her hurrlcdlf’. Matty, still feaning on the wooden gate, watched the retiring figure out of sight. ~ Shy was very quict all day, and in the evenivg pro- pounded this absurd question: " Tgm. what would you doif Ishould jilv out T'um stroked his downy upper lip, and looked pensive. “Couldn’t eay," he replied, nlter some mo- ments of reflection. “ You might try and sco.' “ Perhaps I will,” she replied more soherly than the occasion scemed to warrant. Tom stared very hurd at her, but immedlately forgot the incldent. Nearly o year passed. One day Mrs. Kelli- cott's *help™ mished frantleally into Dr. Gib- son's house, und breathlessly unnonnced to that entleman that *Mr. Tom would be deader'n a 5uur uail Jong before he got there, it he dldn’t ium . For two_seconds, thiuking ot hmn as ils rival in Matty's allections, the r had linlf n mind 10 consign him to the tender mereles of good, stupid old Dr. Wells; but his better nature prevafled, aud he started for Mrs. Kellicott's at the very heels of the servant- rl. Whien he arrived he found Tom in high fever, and delirfous, He pronounced it o severe casy of lyrhu(d fever, und privately added a doubt that he wenld recover, e sont Lo his own louse for changes of clothing, prepared to devote himsell to the “slek man. Matty too, wus unwearied Ino her ork, und, belng necessurily much in Tow’s room, consequently saw the Doctor constantiy. He nud his patient preseuted o murked contrust to cuch other, The latter was -captious and peevigh to an unheard-of degree, aud talked al- most _Incessoutly of some unknowu beimg named Kate, On the otber haud, Dr. Glbson was s0 patient and gentle, so strong and help- ful, duing so tauch for Tom, and yet not forget- ting one ot his uccustomed dutfes, that Matty apeited her eyes in sdmiring astunishment . One mornliig, as the Dovtor prepured a steep- ing draught for sumebody, and dictated 1o Mt~ ty u prescription for samcbody clee, she suld with real solivitude: “Dr, Glbsun, you will certainly kill yourse!f {f you keup on at this rate; und “tis thy belief that you are overworked, and you ought to take o rests “Do | appear to be at death's doori® he in- quired, strafghtening up, and eguaring his shoulders, as if proud of s propottions. | ;X}u. tha Matty,” ho vontluucd goleminly, though 'w merry le in the honest “eyes, * work, a3 Mpa.
