He had finisbed his breakfast now, and rese as he was epeaking.

‘What art goin’ to do? asked Lisbeth. ‘Set about thy feyther's coffin ?’

‘No, mother, said Adam ;' we're going to take thewood to the village, and have it made there.’

‘Nay, my iad, way,’ Lisbeth burst out in an eager, wailing tone, ‘thee wotna let no- body make thy feyther's coflin but thysen! Who’d make it so well! An’ him as know’d what good work war, an’s got a son as is th’ head o’ th’ village, an’ all Treddles’on too, for cleverness.’

‘Very well, mother; if that’s thy wish, I'll make the coffin at home; but I thought thee wouldst na like to hear the work going on,’

‘An’ why shouldna I like 1? It’s choice o’ mislikin’sis all 'n got’ this world. One mossel’s as good as another when your mouth’s out o’ taste. Thee mun set about it now this morning fust thing. I wanna ha’ nobody to touch the coftia but thee.’

Adam’s eyes met Seth’s, which looked from Dinah to him rather wistfully.

‘No, mother,’ he said, ‘Vil not consent but Seth shall have a hand in it, if it’s to be done at home. I[]l go to the viliage this forenoon, because Mr. Burge ‘ull want to see me, aud Seth shall stay at home and begin the coffin. I can come back at noon, and then he can go’

‘Nay, nay,’ persisted Lisbeth, beginning to cry, ‘ Vn set wy heart on’t as thee shalt ma’ thy feyther’s cottin. Thee’s so stiff an’ masterful, thee’t ne'er do as thy mother wants thee. Thee wast often angered wi’ thy feyther when he wer alive ; thee must be the better to’m now he’s goen’, He'd ha’ thought nothin’ on’t for Seth to ma’s coffin.’

‘Say no more, Adam, say uo more,” said Seth, gently, though his voice told that he sp ke with some eff rt; ‘mother’s in the right. Vl go to work, and do thee stay at home.’

He passed into the workshop imme- diately, followed by Adam; while Lisbeth, automatically obeying her vid habits, began to put away the breakfast things, as if she did not mean Dinah to take her place ary longer. Dinah said nothing, but presently used the opportunity of quietly joining the brothers in the workshop.

They had already got on their aprons and paper caps, and Adam was standing with his left hand on Seth’a shoulder, while he pointed with the hammer in his right to some boards which they were look- ing at. Their backs were turned toward the door by which Dinah entered, : nd she came in so gently that they were not aware of her presence till they heard her voice saying, ‘Seth Bede! Seth started, and they both turned round, Dinah looked as if she did not see Adam, and fixed her eyes on Seth’s face, saying, with calm kindness, —

‘I won't say farewell. 1 shall see you again when you come from work. Se as I'm at the farm before dark, it will be quite soon enough.’

‘Thank you, Dinah; | should like to walk home with you once more. It'll perhaps be the last time.’

There was a little tremor in Seth’s voice. Dinah put out her hand and said. ‘You'll have sweet peace in your mind to-day, Seth, for your tenderness and long sufler- ing toward your aged mother.’

She turned round and left the workshop as quickly and quietly as she had entered it. Adam had been observing her closely all the while, but she had not looked at him As soon as she was gone, he said,

‘I don’t wonder at thee for loving her, Seth. She's got a face like a lily.’

Seth’s son) rushed to bis eyes and lips; he had never yet confessed his secret to Adam, but now he felt a delicious sense of disburdenment, as he answered,

‘Ay, Addy, I do love her—too much, I doubt. But she doesna love me, lad, only as one child o’ God leves another. She ll never love any man as a husband—that's my belief.’

‘Nay, lad, there’s no telling; thee mustna lose heart. She’s made out of stuff with a finer grain than most o’ the women; I can see that clear enough. But if she’s better than they are in other things, I canna think she'll fall short of ’em in loving.’

No more was said. Seth set out tothe village, and Adam began his work on the coftin.

‘God help the lad and me too,’ he thought as he lifted the board. ‘We're like enough to find a tough j b~—hard work inside and out. It’s a strange thing to think of a man as can lift a chair with bis teeth, and walk fifty mile on end, trembling and turning hot and cold at only a look from one woman out of a) the rest i’ the world, It’s a mystery we can give ne ac- count of ; but no more we can of the sprouting o' the seed, for that matter,’
