If you lire here. Chtl- - uren r no cbllilren, after all the years that I've been cleaning, I'm not going to die in dirt.\ , By the time tills sentence was concluded, HeW y, a good tempered looking girl, arrited with the brushes, and was instructed to brush the children well, and then let them go la at the door one by obm. In th mn time, tbe .11.. Mnrant, whose name the cbillren learned was Sarah, commenced a rigorous attack on tbe boxes with the bund-brus- h. Charlotte and ber Robin son Crusoe box were tbe last articlos to undergo tae ordeal, and were allowed to enter the bouse together. Then Harah brusht the dust off the tirushea, and shut the door, Ibe stone ball, with Itl shining which lnokcl as If I' had never been trod len on (itl fine polished oak table and white atone floor, loAtxl col I and uninhabitable, even with the aummer-eteclu- g sun shining Into It. Tbe children louked at cx.li other, and won- dered whetber anj one ever poke bare aliove a whisper. Harsh stu.ke tiret, timdly ami sharply enough to dlrpel all fear of tot great aileuce. \Well she said, \this Is the hall.

Sarah's eye glanced Itb satisfaction Over the room. \Thire e sail) \I've been three days getting this room ready for you ; io now, mlud, yitl ate nuter to tread on Uie cirpet.

As if foot wtre not enough to wear out carnots without crutches! who'd hate thought Miss Grey you hai best come up and sneak to vour aunt, Amy rose slowly, and followed with a look which said plainly, \I don't always Intend to submit tole to crJered.\ Sarah lod ber up alalrs, and, along a passage.

Amy euiiloyed herself after tea in uupackiug and arranging some of her own and ber brotbera' clothes ; but she did it In tlie desultory, unsatisfactory way in wblch people always work when their minis are full if weariness of discontent. W hen she returned to tbe dining-roo- she found Sidney looking thoroughly wearied out, while Cliarlotte, Ed ward, and Innk stood at a window, talking in rather loud tonee. Amy distinguished the words \sides \not submit to tt rannv,\ \fuse about nothing,\ \brown Holland chairs.\ Her heart imoto ber w hen she looked at (udney'i face, which were the expression cf pain she knew to well In it.

Charlo'.te and Frank had recolfcete.1 that they were members or one family, and felt lest inclined to dispute about sides and Amy bad been reminds,! of a Father aud a kingdom in buaven, and the dis- contented ex nrendon bad passed from ber fare.
