For there was a hurrying to and fro from all quarters of the old manston, a ranning up and down stairs, a subdued bustle, a murmur of excitement, and finally a burst of laughter,in many keys of elation, sounding as if it came from the subterranean recesses of the kitchen. “No, papa,” cried Uttle Lottie, breathlessly: “but Minnie’s bread has come out of the oven, and it’s a success.” “Oh!” said Mr. Merriman, abstractedly starin, out of the window and scratching his bald heat “is that all?” “That all, Indeed!” aad Minnie herself, a very blooming girl, with short rings of flaxen hair falling all over her head, light blue eyes and a pretty pug nose, with just the proper upward inclination to give It a bewitching shape. And she ran into the room with a bib-apron envelop- | ing her silm figure and a tresh color deepening on her cheek, while by means of a stuut kitchen towel she held up atin baking pan containing a puffy, snow-white loaf of new bread. ‘That ail, papa, when it’s the first bread [ ever made, an when it’s to be sent to the hospital fair to be cut ten cents apiece! Look at it, papa! smell of it! see how deliciously light it is! And then tell me if you ever expected to have your little Min- nie turninto such a stupendous housekeeper!” | And Miss Minnie Merriman kissed her father on the tip of his nose, and looked at him with | pretty girlish triumph. “Very nice—very creditable!” said the good | clergyman, beaming on his daughter, “I dare say you will make a famous cook one of these dave oT only hope,” put in Penny, the second Dorcas), “that Mr. Ayton will come to the fair and buy some of Minnie’s sandwiches, and—" Minnie turned short round. flushing pink to the very roots of her pretty hair. Penny,” said she, ‘hat nonsense you are talking, when you know very well that Mr. Ayton Js sick with pneamonia. And of course he has sent a liberal subscription to the fair; and what can it possibly matter who buys the bread?” Penny subsided, rather abashed, and Minnie ran down stairs again to wrap the white spongy loaf in a suowy napkin, and send Jerusha, the bound girl, to the rooms of the fair committee with it. ow remember, Jerusha,” she uttered, im- pressively, as she held up one finger to add force to her words, “it is No. 19—19, do you hear 7— 19 Saville street!” “Yes'm,” said Jerusha, who was so demoral- ized at the prospect of a temporary reprieve from her dish-washing that she could hardly stand still long enough to tle on her bonnet. And away she went gamboling down the street like a halfgrown elephant, with the carefully wrapped-up loaf of bread in a basket on one arm. My first loaf of bread!” said Minnle to her- elf, as she leaned against the window casing. “Oh, I'm so glad it has turned out a success!” And then her thoughts wandered to Mr. Har- ry Ayton. Would he be well enough to come to the fair that evening? Would he patronize the refreshment hall? ‘ould he think her little pink ribboned apron with the bib front becom- ing? Would he—Oh, pshaw, this would never do! Here it was ten o'clock and the par'ors not dusted nor Billy's Sunday suit mended and brushed ready for service. While Jerusha, after giving her impartial at- tention to hand-organs, a scissors grinder and a street scuftle between two belligerently-minded little boys, finally trudged up the steps of No. 0 Saville street. ‘Please, with Miss Minnie Merriman’s kind compliments,” said she. ‘Please, andit’s the first bread ane ever made; please, and she hopes you'll like it.” ‘And Lois Jenkins, Mr. Harry Ayton’s faithful old nurse and housekeeper, carried the loaf of bread upstairs to the room where the conva- Jescent sat in the sunshine and delivered the message, verbatim et literatim. “And very kind it 1s of the minister's daugh- ter,” she said, setting the parcel on the table. “And it’s as beautiful light bread as I ever see! And how thoughtful of ‘em, Mr. Harry, to re- member you now, ain't it? But Miss Minnie was always one for doing kind things to sick folks ever since she was knee-high to a grass- hopper, bless her dear little soul!” “Yes,” said Harry, slowly, “it is _kind—yer kind, indeed! Couldn’t I have a little of that fresh bread with my beef tea at noon, Lois?” “We'll see what the doctor says, Mr. Harry,” said the old woman, cheérfully, “And anyhow, if you can’t have it to-day, you shall have it to- morrow.” An hour afterward Mr. Merriman himself came in—bald-headed. spectacled and kindly- eyed—to make a pastoral call. And Harry Ay- ton broke abruptly into the good man’s rather prosy platitudes to ask the question nearest to his heart. “Mr. Merriman, do you think tt possible that your daughter Mipnie could ever care for me: Mr. Merriman pushed his spectacles high up on his forehead. “My daughter Minnie?” he repeated. “Why. she’s only a baby! Seventeen last fall, my dear iy mother was married st seventeen, sir,” yton, smiling. PS less me!” said the good pastor. “‘And, now {come to think of it, my wife was not quite eighteen when she and { determined to try life together, on a salary of five hundred per My daughter, Minnie, “Because,” said Mr. Ayton, bravel h And of all the women that ever I saw s the only ona whom I could care to make wife Mr. Merriman rubbed his nose. “My dear young friend,” said he, “if I was my daughter Minnie I should say yes. Bat I'm |uot. And J don’t pretend to understand the s and outs of a woman’s heart. So, periaps, you had better ask her about it!”” “I will,” said Mr. Ayton. “But I may take it | for granted that I have your sanctlon?’ “By uli means,” said the old gentleinan—“by all means!” “And you will prepare her mind for a visit from me when I am a little stronger 2” “Oh, certainly!” said Mr. Merriman. And absent-minded as usual he went home and forgot ail about it. At 3 o'clock pretty Miss Minnie put on her blue velvet capote and neat little sack and went to No. 19 Saville street to help prepare the hment table for the hospital fair. ‘How did you like my bread?” she asked of the lady superintendent, who stood at the bi table with a dozen white-aproned young gir gliding around her in various directions. “The first 1 ever made.” “What bread?” said Mra. Raymond, lifting her eyebrows. “We have received no bread from you, Minnie.” ‘oodness graclous me!” cried the minister's daughter, clasping her hands, ‘what has be- come of it, then? For I sent Jerusha with it at ten o'clock, and she came back and declared that she had delivered it all be aie “There has been some ke evidently,” said Mrs. Raymond. “And I am sorry, for we are in great need of real, nice home-made bread.” Minnie burried back home and sternly con- fronted Jerusha, who was surreptitiously buying @ penny ballad of a boy at the area di lerusha,” said she, “you told me that you ered my bread all right?” ‘So 1 did, Miss Minnie,” whimpered Jerusha. “At No. 90 Saville atreet.

Oh, Jerusha, how could you make such @ dreadtul blunder?” And she ran up to her father in a sort of des- peration. ; “Papa,” she cried. ‘‘such a dreadful thing has happened! Oh, don’t you think you could help ‘us out of it in some way?” And she related the complication with tears in her eyes. $ “Hum! hum! ha!” said Mr. Merriman, appar- ently hoisting his memory out of the times of Herodotus ber wae aoa rene = mental apparatus. “Yes, I see. you don’ gradge poor Mr. Ayton the bread, Minnie, my dear, you? “Oh, no, no,” cried Minnie. “You don’t dislike him?” “Well, then,” said this witty old diplomatist, “suppose we both go around there together, and it can all be explained satisfactorily,and we know, my dear, that we are commanded in the 00d book to visit the sick.” So Miss Merriman and her father went to No. here are light sandal | man. “I feuille morte, or deud-leaf | better mordore and Jenkins about that passage in Revelations that always bothers her so.” ‘What does it mean?” said Minnie, in bewil- derment, as her father shuffled out of the “It means,” said Mr. ‘gio promptly, tle le, i ing for you in my heart all these —o ut until your sweet message te- »,” said Minnie, blush- “and no bread either. e of Jerusha’s.
