"I don't want to lose principle, auntie," Rhoda said; "but I am afraid I love life too much to be a pastor's wife. I never saw the world for so long that I'm wild in it. I want to go, to look, and to see, everywhere. I feel my heart is in my wings, and must I go sit on a nest? Miss Somers " "The question is, dear, do you love?" "Auntie, I reckon I love William as much as he does me."
"Will you permit me to inquire what that accident was?" "With pleasure. I had I tell you this in confidence I had chosen one of the pastor's daughters as his wife; I invited her to Almvik to-day, but he avoided her presence.

Walter grasped the truth more rapidly than his father, and whenever he found him perplexed or doubtful he was ever ready to point the way. His mother was constantly gaining both in health and understanding, and when Spring came and the end of the pastor's six months' vacation drew nigh, she was entirely healed.
"The pastor's wife sent you this," said the girl, holding out the beautiful rosebud she had taken from the boy. "So like her!" said the old woman, lovingly. "She's just like that herself! God bless her!
