We used to be havin' our plots together, and we had ways o' asking tilings an' answerin' yes and no. I seem to forget a good deal of it now," explained aotafMkers Exearilont to Kni nnd Nebraska.

Then I really feel as if th winter's gone for good." As Sally Martin went up the road ho. wished that she were still sitting with her old neighbor. For almost the first, time there was something lonely-look-? ing and repellent, something cold and heartless about her own little house ns she unlocked the door and went in. She missed the motherliness she had just left, nnd the sun no longer shone into her own kitchen. She sat down without taking off her shawl.

After all it was too lute new to change her manners to Isaac Bolton or to let him know that her love had al-' ways been his. Everybody hn'J spoken of his approaching marriage, nnd the new house was the surest proof. Mrs. Bascom had treated th?) story lightly, but perhaps she did not," know, or had not been told, because sh-i was certain not to approve. Solly knew that her old neighbor hnd always) been her friend.

A crisis seemed to have come into her quiet life. Isaac Boltoni hnd been an orphan boy brought up by his uncle and aunt; besides the tracvi of fine valley land joining the Busconi farm, on which he was putting the new! house, he had a good property in mon-j cy. Sally knew that ho would havqi stayed on with the Bascoms and been a great help to them if the neighbor, hood to herself had not grown so dif fieult and unpleasant. Since then hJ must often have felt homeless. Fo' herself, too, not far bej'ond 30, strong aim lunu ui juuu vurii, lb wus a puuir 1 1 1 3 1.

Isaac was larg.s hearted nnd manly, though quick-tem-1 pcred enough, as sho had known. She' saw things differently now, the oh'j habits of her mind, the self-pity that i had clung so long to a grievance had worn themselves away and left only ret gret behind on that spring afternoon It was too late now, she-could not du anything, sho had lost all right to tho man wliom she loved ana who had long loved her. She remembered, as sh had so many times before, that when sh snw him last his coat needed mending and that he had grown to look olde and even a little gray.

She remeni bercd now the sweet, wistful look li i his eyes, nnd how quickly they hai I clouded over when she with a beatinj heart had treated him so coldly. Snlly Martin still snt by her windm i in the late afternoon. She had tukei i Un her sewinsr nsrain. but her eve I looked as if she had been crying.

Hunt Be Handled BouRliIy, oa They Don't Appreciate ltluilncss. "To-day the Hindoo servant is a lazy, good-for-nothing thief, nnd I will tell you how to handle him," said the general trnflic manager of tho Southern India railway in his oilice nt Madras, India, to nn Enquirer representative who was in the orient several riionths ago nnd has just returned to this city.

Continuing, he said: "I have seen a good deal of change in the country dur- luff my 50 years' residence here, nnd one of the most remarkable changes has been in the treatment of servants. A V. hipping caused death, a fine of seven rrnpees (Vti in American money, ac cording to present value,) would nave bceh imposed. "If, however, the servant's masterdid not cure to run the risk of having to pay ihe tine, which was considered a big sum for the life of a Hindoo in those days, all he had to do was to send the offending servant with a note to tho police magistrate, nnd on official whip-per would return with Sammy. Tho Vhole appliances for whipping were kept at the police department.

Sammy would be made to carry his own whipping post. Flog him hard? I should eay they would. The genernl average would he 30 lashes, and if the master thought that the rascal was not punished enough ho would order 30 more hushes. If the Hindoo died from the effects of this punishment, why, there was no line to pay, nnd it was simply 'good riddance of bad rubbish. But look nt the condition of things now.

The rascally Hindoo will stuud up nnd Bass you. "Y'ou nsk why. It Is because the Hindoo whipping post hns been abolished. At present the offending Hindoo is brought before a rajah or judgo of his own race, nnd of course he will not be severe on his countryman. "The only way that these llindoo servants can be made to obey is to bent and kick them.

Y'ou cannot show them kindness or they nt once mit you down as a softie. Take my advice, as long as you remain in India and your servants ure lux in their work, you just niuku ilium acquainted with the toe of your boot." The old gentlcmnn sighed as he recalled the former manner of dealing with servants. His tone of voice anil looks indicated that ho would like it reestablished. His advice was both good and true, for Hindoo servants do not appreciate kindness, nnd under stand only a kick when you desire them to obey.

MISSOURI. A CHANGE OF HEAKT. I. BY SARAH ORNK JEWKTT. Sally Martin sat by her favorite kitchen window scv.

mg a little nml looking1 off over the sunny spring flcIiU. All winter through the hare trees she could see the next house farther down the hill, but now the budding' orchard had suddenly made a thick hereon. After ninny defeated glances ncighborwarJ she was too conscious of being cut off from companionship and social pleas ures, nnd folded up tho blue gingham oproii which she had been hemming, nnd took her shawl from the null be hind the door. There was a look of anticipation on her face; she had evidently found herself dull company for once. She brought a deep wicker bas ket, brown with nge, from A closet, nnd going1 down cellar filled it with russet apples, and then locked the door after her and went her way.

The grass was green by the roadside ind she walked in the footpath at its edge, feeling the ground under foot With much pleasure and stopping once to look at some bluebirds in maple tree. One always feels young again with the spring, and this year the snow end mud had lingered late and kept her much indoors. It was the day for youth and pleasure, nnd when she was out in the open nir her face grew serene and childlike: the stopped to listen to the bluebirds and watched their pretty colors in the gray branches, then she walked on down the hill with her golden russets. The widespread lower country and the hills beyond it were blue with the soft bpring haze. Her neighbor's house Hood not fur away, at a little distance from the road, and the narrow lane Into which she soon turned was prettier thnn ever that spring, with its shel-teringturf as soft as an early dandelion or two shining against the fence.

The old apple trees leaned their long boughs over it so that they almost met, and in later summer they would he hung thick with wisps of hay and Btraw from the high-henped loads that went into the barn. This was a huge building like an unwieldy elephant in the landscape, while the house was low and small.with tiny pointed porch nnd a door that had three panes of glass at top. 'When you ctood in the entry within you couhj twircely get room to shut the door behind you, and were at close quarters with an old colored wood-cut of Gen. Washington, which greeted strangers with an impartial air of dignity. On the right another door opened into the Bascoms' living-room, which surprised one in so small a house with its size and cheerfulness.

The windows looked both north and south, ond there were plenty of bright ripr.ot clgan fl-? 'I snw you vomiii up the lane, Sally, ind I don't know whenever I was more pleased," said Mrs. Bascom, who was a lume woman and could not rise to greet her friends except in spirit. "Now bring that little rocking-ehnir right over close to me, and let's have good talk. It's so pretty looking out o' my Window. I'm all alone, the folks have gone to the village, shoppin'.

David found his old plow wouldn't do him this year, and Cynthi' she's always ready ond willin', so they started right oJY after an early dinner. I'm braidin' lip my rags us usual; I couldn't seem to do anything else just because I felt bo busy. There's everything to be done this time of year, ain't there?" "I wuked up feclin' all of a bustle, too, and I soon came clown to hemmin' ine a blue gingham apron that I den't need one bit," confessed Sully. "1 expect it's the spring workin' in us, though there uin't no leaves to show for it. I guess the trees themselves must feel just the same." The two good women smiled end Bally reached over and took a handful of dark woolen strips and began to braid in company.

"I brought you folks some o' my apples," she said presently. "I'm on the last barrel, but they never were nicer this time of year. They wilt right nwny quick as you bring 'em up from the cellar, but you shall have more as long as they Inst." "I call 'cm a grcnt treat; our apples have been gone some time nnd the last of 'em were very poor. There ain't Buch a keepln' cellur in town as yours; it seems to give everything a good taste." "Grandfather always used to say that it cost him most as much to dig it right out of the rock there as it did to build the house above it," said Sally. "You know 'twas that little glimpse of the sea you only get right there, and he couldn't bear to set his house anywhere else.

Three sides o' the cellar is Bound rock; I don't know's you remember, it's so many j-ears since you Was able to get down." "I recall all those things I used to be in the habit o' seeing as if it were yesterday," said Mrs. Bnsconi. "I find my thoughts such good company that 1 doii't miss goin' about much as everybody expects. Everybody knows Just where to find me, and so they come to me; folkB like to feel a certainty when they make some effort to come." "I don't know but what I should have been disappointed pretty bad to-day myself," said Sally. "I deemed to miss seeing the house as I sat there to mv window sewing.

The trees and buKhers have budded out nrnnzin' since yesterday. I kind of missed you and felt lonesome. I expect I can see tho lower light for some nights yet, till the leaves really come, nnd Cynthi'B light I can see ull the year round in her window upstairs. I can't seem to go to bd till Blie does," and they both laughed, and Cynthi' used muke signals when you was girls, doa'tyou re Sally. "You're just ns much of a girl as ever you were," said tho elder woman looking up with nn affectionate nnd an appreciative smile.

"Well, I did feel as if I wanted to stop and make a dnm by the side of the rend there where the water runs out under the stone wall," and Sally smiled in her turn. "Sping is spring, ain't it? Always just ns new every year." Mrs. Bnscom gave a long look out across the lovely April country. Suddenly her expression changed. "Why, I can see the gable o' Isaac Bolton's new house.

I knew he was raising yesterday, but I never thought to look. There over the knoll to the right of the woods, you can just sec the top of it." "Why, yes," said Sally, looking eagerly and then going back to her rocking-chair again. She was blushing and her eyes looked very bright. She seemed to make an effort to speak, but no word came. Mrs.

Bascom also made an effort to look away for some time, and pretended to be busy with her work. At last Bho laid her hands in her lap. "Sally," she asked, as a mother might speak to her child, "don't you really think you are foolish? I feel as if 3-011 ere most as near to me as my own Cynthia; truth is I can say things right out to you sometimes that I enn't to her, much as I love her. Isaac's good man nnd faithful; I don't know what he's building that house for, but 1 don't believe he'll ever wart anybody for his wife but you." "I heard he was engaged to be married to somebody in BeHinm," answered Sally, stiflly, but with no resentment. "I haven't seen him to speak with him for eight months not since last August, when I happened to meet him here in the yurd." "You done very wrong then, Rally, my dear," said Mrs.

Bascom with dignity, "lie was glad of the chance to see you nnd all ready to be friendly, nnd you passed him right by after you said 'How do you ah' something about the weather. I set right here where I be now, an' I see his face work like child's that has a real task to keep from cryin'. All these years now you've held on to that grudge, nn' 'twas nil foolishness. Your Gran'ther Walker's narrow stubbedness keeps you from givin' in, while he's made every effort he could. Sometimes I've thought you didn't love him, an' he was better off to let you have your way about it, but truth Is, you'd deny yourself an go through the world without happiness, rather than feel you was the one to give in." "It's all true," said Sally, humbly.

"I've tried to beat down that hard feelin', but I can't, Mis Bascom. I own up to you as if you was hiy own mothers soinethin' free7.es, right ir.c. 'I wish folks hadn't made such a talk about it." She covered her face with her hnnds and began to cry. "There, there, dear; 'twill ull come right one of these days," said Mrs. Bascom, soothingly.

"I never meant to work you all up just, as we was hnvin' such a pleasant visit together." "Somehow or 'n other I'm so contented livin' just as I be, if it only wa'n't for that," said Sully, drying her eyes, but not changing the subject. "I never could hink of nnybody else ns 1 have of Isaac. I'm glad you spoke right out, Mis' Bnsconi. I've wished you would a good many imes. "You nn' Isaac nn' Cynthi' used to have such good times together when he was still livin' here" Mrs.

Bascom braided away intently and did not look up us she spoke "an' since all this has happened he's often talked to mo very free and said it troubled him to know you had so little means while he was well off.and youwith nobrothernorjio-body to look after you in winter time, an' all that" "I've got along all right," insisted Sally, with dangerous spirit, then she softened again. "You sec how it is, Mis' Bascom, it's too lute now and we've got to leave it as it is. I expect it's poor old grandfather's setness, as you say." Her face was pnthctic and childish ns she spoke. "You're always real good." "Well, I don't know'B I be," said Ihe placid old friend. "I've had very hard feelings about being laid on the shelf so early, while I was full of spirit to work, and we'd just built that great barn and had all our plans about running a creamery.

The farm's so good for granin', and 'twould been easier for my husband, but Cynthia wa'n't able to continue without me. He never complains, but in a few years we should have been forehanded and paid what we owed, instead o' only adding to It." She looked out across the green yard at the barn, the building of which had proved to be such a mistake, ond sighed "I'm going to tell you, too, thut we weren't married very young ourselves, Mr. Bascom and and 'twas partly owing to my induJgiir just such fcelin's as yours, though the occasion was different." "Why, Mis' Bascom!" exclaimed Sally, with deep sympathy. "Yes, dear, I give you wnrnin' out of my own experience," nnd the elder woninn looked grave nnd kindly. "I've been tryin' ever since to make up for real injustice to the good man I loved best in the world.

And you can be sure of this thing, Sally, the wrong road never leads to the right place." It was very still in the wide kitchen; one of the windows was open and the bluebirds were chirping in the orchaid. There was a lai-uwny sound of frogs. The old tortoise-shell eat which had been asleep on a cushioned chair came across the floor gaping, and when she utiw Sally she hopped up into that friendly neighbor's lap. Sally fondled her little and laughed at the loud Your blood la Spring is almost certain bo full of impurltlos tho accumulation of tho whiter months.

They turned out of the road, and still sitting by hei window she saw Cynthia get out of the wagon, after a word with her father.

In both faces was a lool c.i sorrow and shock, and she sprang tC her feet ns her friend came into th kitchen. "Oh, Sally, Sallyl" said got awfully hurt this afternoon, lie fell from the house frame.and the doctor can't tell yet whether thero is much chance for him. They stopped us as we came by, and they've got hiin in a little shed until he can be moved to our house he's got nowhere else tu turn. He saw me, and told somebody he had got to speak to me, and when 1 got to him all he could whisper was that I must come and tell you, and 1 said I would. He didn't ask you to come, only to let you know." The two friends faced each other, Sally looked gray and old and stern, but Cynthia had come to an end of her self-control and began to cry.

"What will poor mother say?" her voice faltered. "She thinks everything ol Isaac and she'll want to get to him, and feel as had that she can't." All the color rushed back to Sully'a face, nnd a lovely self-forgctfulncss shone in her eyes. She suddenly looked young again nnd even happy. "Go right home as fast ns you can," sluj "I'm going to nsk your father to take me right down to Isaac's plaoe, Tell your mother I'll take care of him. I'm going to Isaac now just as fast as can."

"I'm right htfre, doctor," said old Mr, Bascom, who loved Isaac like a son, "I'll take him right home with me if he's ready to go. I've got the long wagon, you know." As for Sully, she hnd gone straight to her lover's side where he lay weak and pale on the pile of coats and shavings; she was kneeling by him with a sweet and quiet face, and Isaac's burnt was fust in hers.
