Wait till she meets somebody worth her while 1" Wilhelmina looked up gratefully-but she was only half comforted. Nurse was very kind; but after all Hugh was a man: he ought to know. She looked so unhappy that dear little Gavin laid his peachy face consolingly against hers. " Never mind, Vilma," he chirped, " I'll marry you-some day-if nobody else does! " But it was a very weary downhearted little girl that buried her face in the pillows that night. What between " getting married " and " getting converted," life really was too difficult! And yet so many quite common people were being married and converted every day I CHAPTER IIL A NEW DIMENSION. Another autumn day was drawing to a close, and the glamour of sunset lay upon Windyhaugh. The constant murmur of the leaves was lulled for the time into a fitful breath; and the red-gold rays shot in a level shaft athwart the tree-trunks, casting long straight shadows, and lighting up the interior of the little plantation into the semblance of a cathedral. One almost expected to hear the pealing of the organ at vespers from the arched tracery overhead. The song of the birds had died away into a sleepy intermittent twitter, but out on the lawn a half-grown kitten leaped at the flitting moths, and Hugh and Gavin chased each other through the shrubbery with peals of excited laughter. It was long past Gavin's bedtime-under Mrs. Gal- braith's old-fashioned regime; but the mother of the boys was expected that evening, so he had been allowed to stay up. Wilhelmina was in bed as usual. She lay in her little white chamber, all athrob with expectation.
