to bear the name herself
And high was her reward, when one Saturday

and showed him al that was SO rough made smooth

And you dear
"Obl am sure of that Floy
He said no more about it, but all that evening
sat close by her very quiet and IN the night he
called out from his little room within hers three OF
four times, that he loved her.
Regularly. after that, Florence was prepefedt1

anticipate together Of his next weeks WORK. Tue
cheering thought that he was laborng on where
Florence had just tolled before him. would Of lIsen
have been a stimulant to Paul in the perpetual
resumption Of his studies but coupled with The
actual tightening OF his load consequent on this
assistance, it saved him, possibly from sinking
underneath the burden which the falr Corneha
Blimbsr piled upoD bis back.
II WIS not that Miss Blimber can't TO be too
hard upon him. or that Doctor Bimber meant to
bear too heavily on the young gentlemen In gene
raj Corneua merely held the faith IN which she
had been bred and the Doctor. In some partial
confusion Of his IDEAS regarded the young gentle
men as if they were all Doctors and were porn

vounp geutlenen's nearest relations, and urged on
bv their blind vanity and ill-considered haste, II
would have been strange II Doctor bhmoet naa

Thus in the case OF Paul. When Doctor bhmoer
said he made great progress and was naturally
clever, Mr. Dombey was more bent than ever on ms
being forced aud crammed. In the case Oh Briggs
when Doctor Blimber reported that he did moi mskS
great progress yet and was not naturally Clever

In short however high and false the temperature ri
which the Doctor kept his dollhouse, the owners oil
the plants were always ready TO lend helping
hand at the bellows and to stir the lire
Such spirits as he had in the outset, Paul soon
!ost of course But he retained all that was strange
and old and thoughtful IN his character aud under
circumstances 80 favorable to the development oil
these tendencies, became even more strange ana
old and thoughtful, than before.
TIE onis, ditraran.a was that he kept his ChafdC-
ter 10 himself He grew more thoughtful and re-
served every day and had TO such curiosity IN any
living member Of the Doctor 8 household as he had
had In Mrs Pipchin. He loved to be alone aud IN
those short intervals when he was not occupied with
his booAs liked nothing so well as wondering about
the house by himself sitting ON the stars listen
ing to the great clock in the hall He was intimate
with all the paper hanging in the house saw things
that no one else saw in the patterns found out
miniature tigers and hons running up the bedroom
walls, and squirting faces leerng IN the squares
and diamonds of the iioorcoth.
The solitary child lived ON, surrounded by THIS
arabcsQue work of his musing fancy, aud no one
understood him. Mrs Blimber thought hun odd
and sometimes the servants said among themselves
that little Dombey mopedi but that was all
Vnlsss Young Toots had some idea ON the sub
ject, to the expression OF which he was wholly I'M
equal. Ideas like ghosts according to the common
notion Of ghosts must be spoken to little before
they will explain themselves and Toots had long
Left of asking any questions OF his own mind.

One evening Mr. foots was sitting ut his desk
