Brune had been reading a strong-minded woman's opinion of “Aim loss Lives,” and now, she gazed ‘down up on the winding river, the undulating hills | nd grove-embosomed house, she was fill ed with self-reproach that she was merel living, and enjoying it too, without know ing why or doing any appreciable good to any one. It had been made very clear to her that she had been put here for some |use—but what? To eat, drink and be merry? Oh no, that wasn't enough; that | was only for sclf. | | Her spirit rose impatient, and her| hands burned to be doing *‘what their | | might”—but there was nothing, absolute | 1y nothing, for them to fall upon The tears rose to her eyes and she bit- | torly exclaimed: “I'm nothing but a| cumberer of God's busy earth.” Tt must be admitted that Brune's range of thought was rather circumscribed, for, save through books and papers, she knew nothing of the t world outside her own hill-surrounded country home. Prof. Middleton, an abstracted though kind- | hearted man and devoted g st, in| following the aim of his own life, had broken through many an outer crust and looked decely into the inner natare of Mother Earth, but it had never once oc- curred to him that there was more in the charactor of his children than was shown upon the swiface, and he knew absolute- ly nothing of them beyond their names and th aces. Mrs. Middieton some- times wondered by what intuition he that much, As to Brune, in whom he might have found a study worthy of himself, he regarded her as a perfect child, and absolutely remarked to his wife one day, “How large Brune grows,” “Yes” cried Mrs, Middleton, hasten, ing to speak while his mind was off’ his rocks and pebbles. ““Yes, indeed; she is well-grown and _pretty, and I wish very much she might se¢ more of socicty. Mademoisclle will have nomore of her in the school-room, and there is absolutely h‘vrv to employ her time as it fell upon unheeding e the professor's thoughts were in th fourth stratum already, mamma’s were called to the nursery, and meanwhile eighteen-year-old Brune stood holding out empty, longing hands toward “‘an ob- ject to live for, Sweet, fair Mrs, Mid- dleton, whose loving heart and busy hands were all devotion to her little flock, scarcely the half that passed in Brune’s active mind. She was kind, affectionate and considerate to all, apparently happy and interested in all about her, felt the bright influence of her sunny nature, and only half realized that a or variety than their quiet home life afforded was actually necessary to her daughter's development and hap- piness. Although she had not yet for- gotten the bright days of her own youth, and would have wished for Brunea glimpse of such gayeties as belun;f to girl- hood, she failed to urge it upon her hus- band that Brune should have companions of her own age. Had the Middletons been in less prosperous circumstances than they were, 8o that some daily house- hold duties might have fallenupon Brune, I don't think we should have found her musing in this dissatisfied way upon her lot. But beyond amusing herself as was most agreeable to her, and _entertaining her merry little brothers and sisterswhen they sought from her song or story or comfort for some childish sorrow, she found nothing for her hands to do. She posessad far too much of her fath- er’s talent and her mother's energetic spirit not to have already felt distressed at her forced inaction. This appeal from the strong-minded woman had aroused her whole nature, so that she stood clasp- ing the mighty body of her favorite tree and wishing it might develop the faculty of speech like the talking oak, or at least with waving branches point out the spot where her mission lay. Finally she re- solved to go to her father, though she in- wardly dreaded the amazed look, with which he would greet her questions. However, the desire for action was great- er than the fear of being misunderstood, and gathering up her dress she turned about to descend the hill, when a curly pool appeared from behind a great mossy rock, and with dancing eyes and laugh- ing face her little sister Berenice ran to meet her, “0 sister Brune, where have you been and what is the matter with youl” she cried. **Have you been to the moon, or are you only moonstruck?” “‘No; Beny, I haven't,” gravely replied Brune, still impressed with the subject of her meditations. “Ihave been try- ing to think what is the object of my life. Tell me what is it, dear,” she added laughingly, as Beny’s look struck her as irresistibly ol “‘Have mercy, Brune; isn't it enough to be obliged to furnish objects for m: verbs?” retorted the ready-witted chil-ly: “And do come along. Mamma sent me to find you because papa has brought home a visitor, I don't know what will happen next. 1 wish something would for my part. 1 don't believe every place can be as stupid as this, and perhaps pa- pu might leave the valley if a real awful tragedy would occur,” and Beny's cyes sparkled, while her shoulders were drawn up in a comical affectation of a shiver of dread. Brune laughed again and rominded Beny of her distress a few days before when their father brought home a ' little wounded fox from the old quarry. *Did not that satisfy your thirst for blood, lit- tle savage!” she” asked, Beuy's only re- ply was to skip gaily along Vonitidl, side of the steep, narrow path; then turn- T o Py SR oy T ht little face, she cried out: “Oh T dont thing would } would find your ‘object’ if that would make any difference” hetween Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursda Friday, Saturday and Sundiy and_out of breath, she skipped a littl too far on the outer edge of the path and fell headlong upon the rocks below before | the frightencd Brune could reach her, ‘0 Beny, Beny,” she o you 5o cazeless! and she ward half expecting the merry child would spring up in an ecstacy of fun at having succeeded in frightening her more timid, or rather less reckless sister. But the little, twisted body seemed almost | lifeless, it was so rigid, and all Brune's efforts to take her up only availed to eli- cit mouns of pai Throwing her arms about her, she lifted her as tenderly as possible, and, with trembling limbs, “ca ried her swiftly down the steep, walk to the house, “‘Ah, Brune, Brune, little did you think when you climbed the hill seeking your bri | sympathy, scene of distress and confusion that en sued, a short time after, when Brunc, with pale, awe-struck countenance, al most fainting with fatigue and fright, but with a brave lightfor all;in her eyesand a firm look about her sweet mouth, entored with hor burden. Gently placing Dere nico upon a lounge, she exnlained the ac cident in the fewest words to her father, soothed her mother with ready and kind and endeavored in vain to subdue the noisy grief of the nurse, an old Trish countrywoman, who saw here a fine opportunity for a “‘whillelu!

You relieve her. Dr. Hartloy, my dear,” to his wife-—and ‘my daughter, sir,” he added, turning to Brune. Brune, looking anxiously into his face, began telling lhow Berenice had fallen, but before she had tinished, although Dr. Hartley heard all that she said, the room was quite clear of the excited group of servants and child ven, and he was carefully_examining the little one. grave look overshadowed his face, but whilst he cut away her twisted clothing and applied something pungent and aromatic to her forchead and nose she appeard. to revive, Then Dr. Hartley, looking around, was met by Prof. Middleton and Dr. Mecarns, and Brune left the room, anxious, yet dicad- ing the result of the examination. Heor| father came forth looking much agitated, and in answer to her inquiring fa her twice, saying quite broken'y: ““Brune, your sister is much hurt, The fall has mjured her spine,” and he disap- peared into the study, whither no one ever dared to follow. Brune went to her mother, who was greatly distressed for little Berenice, but whose anxictics were also roused in behalf of baby Jean, wh with the usual consideration of babies, showed dangerous symptoms of croup. She seut Brane back to Berenice, saying: “The charge of her must devolve upon you for the present. Constant watchful- ness and care are required;” and, seeing in her daughter's face the same brave, steady look that it had worn when she came in with Berenice in her arms, she e kissed *Bless, you, my daughter, what should I do without you to depend upon?”’ Tears sprang to Brune's eyes aud her heart swelled with pleasure at these words. She was of use, afterall, and she had a place to fill. Although she realized the danger her dear little sister was in, it was a relief to find that upon her devolved something no one else could do, and she went to Beny’s rooms resolved to leave nothing undone that could benefit her or allay her pain, Dr. Mearns, finding in Dr. Hartley an accomplished and experienced surgeon despite his apparent youth, had left the BiHeARt G alIb el Arg At OB the night long they, Brune, nurse Norah and _the stranger, watched beside the child's bedside. 1t was pretty to seehow deft and skillful a nurse was Brune; so intuitive were her perceptions of what should be done that she _seemed to Dr. Hartley the very embodiment of grace and mercy. Towards morning the stupor gave way to delirium, and Beny talked incessantly, constantly calling for **Si ister Brune,” and asking “where was her ob- ject,” and what it was that kept her from going down the hill. “Tt is the object, the object that holds me and hurts me,” she screamed again, and it required all their efforts to sootho and restrain her. Brune flushed as she thought of her dis- contented musing in the afternoon,which seemed wicked and unnatural to her now that she contrasted the trouble of the present with the peaceful serenity of that time. She glanced quickly at Dr. Hart- ley to see if he heeded Beny's wild words, and caught his clear blue eyes fixed ques tioningly upon her. “Can he have an object?’ she won- dered involuntarily, and then reproach- ing herself bitterly for losing sight of her sister’s peril, even for a moment, she bent over her with renewed care, Days wenton and lengthened into weeks, and the little sufferer so far re- covered that all immediate danger was pussed. Howover, the shock to her sys- tem was great and her vital powers much reduced. It was necessary to carry her from place to place, and any carcless grasp made her shriek in agony. No one carried her so comfortable as Dr. Hartley—or ‘‘my Dr. Dick,” as she af- fectionately styled him, He had become so completely domesti- cated that it certainly had been his due to have his sudden appearance on the scene explained long ere this, He was the son of an old friend of Prof. Middl ton’s, and being in Boynton, a village near the professor's Valley Home, on some business for his father on the day of Berenice's accident, had met and in- troduced himself to the professor, The old familiar name and the resemblance to his friend so touched the warm- rted old gent 1 that he would lis- ten to no excuso or delay, but carried off his prize forwith to his home that he might more comp! enjoy hearing of his boyhood’s friend. ~ Richard Hartley had a soul full of love for his chosen work, and a mind and body well fitted to do well what whatever he undertook.

Dr. Dick's eyes looked deeper and bluer than ever, and bending down to find the still looked-for volume, he acci- dentally encountered Brune's littlo hand outstretched on the same quest, and Beny heard him say: “Have I, Brune?" Beny’s eyes grew largerand larger, aud her indignation knew no bounds when Dr. Dick, after first neglecting to reply to her questions and then _forgetting to give hor the much-hunted book, deliber- ately stood up bofore her with Brune's hand in his and said quiotly: “‘Here is my object, Beny. A winter South was the only thing fo Beny's health; Dr Hartloy said so; D, Menrns reiterated it. The professor and Mrs. Middleton could not gainsay two such authorities, Accordingly a month or two later we find her comfortably and happily settled at Livingston, the home of Dr. Hartley's father, carefully and lovingly tended as before by her Lwo obedient servants, Brune and Dr, Dick. But to this day she wonders why it is that Brune never secks for an object in life, and what Dr. Dick could have meant by his reply that memorable day at Val- ley Home when he and Brune ‘made up thewr minds to marry each other.
