Sirs. Sarah Wlnchell; owner of the
Wiucboll farui. was u widow and in
tin* matrimonial market.
One day a calamity came. Two hives
of bees Kin rt I in : warm at once. The
widow niched ' tit and began hammer
ing on a pan and got tile boos to alight
for the nonce, Inn i hat was as far, as
she eoiild go. Sin* si n il yelling for
help when help mine. A traveler- on
the highway stopped and hitched Mils
horse and walked np the path. lie
hiiw what should I e done, and he \wnt
ahead and did it. In a quarter of an
hour he had the swarms in the new
hives, and after a look at the others
Infornxl the widow ih.u it would he
several days yet iiefore they would
ooine out. .She had lime to look at him
while lie was at work, and she, rather
liked his looks. So far as she eould
make out lie hardly glanced at Iter, and
he ocrt;i inly had l?ut a few words to
iay. When In- had finished his work
he looked over her h. ad, :;aid he was
glad to have heeti of use and took his
departure. The widoft had saved the
hoes, hut she was pained. Any widow
Would have been.
Throe or four days later the other
hives swarmed and were taken euro of
>y the hired men. Then the stranger
appeared a;;ain to nr.k how the insects
were getting along, lie seemed em
barrassed and in a hurry and "refused
the Invitation to enter the house. He
also appeared to look everywhere else
but at tlie widow, ller hair was nicely
combed, her apron snow while and her
cheeks like roses, but he paid more
attention to the pear tree and the soap
kettle and tiie mi miner squashes than
to her. Ilo just wanted to know, you
know, and was glad to tlnd out and
then was gone.
Of course a widow (hat Inul turned
down a dozen offers of matrimony
cuii U1 not ?io otherwise tlmn luok after
I In- retreating urungcr and loss Iter
liead and say that lie was a latin that
did nut appreciate a good t liiiiK- Nev
ertheless lie made uoiao cautious in
tpiiries of lln' him! nieii and in that
way found tit ili.it he was a new res
ident oj' Kllnluii. I ??it no more.
Then niioiher weel. passed and the
stranger called lo say that he was
looking ar? tind to ptuvhase a good
farm, and lie wished to Inquire if tho
widow's v.as for sale. On this occn- >
sion he entered the house, hut evident- j
ly with reluctance. lie was certainly |
a bashful in;. 11. In that he was a nov- [
elly. When Deacon Gn.huiu, widow- ;
er, came t > buy the farm a year be
fi'iv he had stood in the kitchen door
and boldly announced:
?Widder Winciicll, I'm n-lookiug to
buy a farm. If you go with (his, I'll
pay $10 nn acre."
That lueaut >.ii> an at re for the farm
and MO an acre for her. and, though n
blunt way of puidiig it. she was not
so very Indignant. The Mraagcr, who
had ai last imroiluecd himself as Mr.
Bingham, threw out no hint i f want
ing anyihiiu. but the farm. .Most any
widow would have feii tlie slight. Aud
then, too, when she had replied that !
the farm v.> . n .t for s.^le he at once
rose up to depart without speaking of
ho.v wheat and corn were looking tip
or ca- in : a second glance at the bar
rel of - it soap she iiad made the day !
before and left at the kitchen door to
cool. It hurt and it aggravated. Mr.
Bingham might lie ;i bashful man. but
(here are lime-; when even a bashful
man should force himself to talk.
Two weeks passed away, and then
at the widow sat on the piazza one
afternoon looking so uicc that Farmer
Johnson's mouth watered as he drove
pust Mr. liingham callct again. This
time it was to see it' t Le widow had
a cow to sell. lie was invited to sit
down, and > ows were discussed. lie
was looking away into (he garden in
stead of at the woman, as he sought
to do his share of the discussing. The
widow had no tows to sell, but she \
didn't say -o. She left the impression
on the caller's miml that if he came
again he might P 'S iibly buy one. Sho
jumped from cows to calves and from
calves to siieep and lambs in hopes to
detain him, but he got away as soon
as possible, others had sat around
until fairly driven out of the house
with the broomstick. Others had bokl
i.v Haltered, but lie h:id said nothing
In praise. The widow tossed her head
and said she didu'( care, but we know
she did, just the same.
At the end of another ten days the
bashful Mr. Kinglutm was back to
ask if the widow would sell him n
