A Day in PetticOats.
BY A MODEST MAN.
4 couldn't think of such a thing

4 couldn't think of such thing
But you must. My happiness de-
pends on it. Here, put on the thingum-
bobs, and the what's his name
And my friend, Bob Styles, held up
before my hesitant gaze a suit Of femi-
nine apparel.
His idea was that I should personate
his lady-Ioge for one day, to prevent any
body from suspecting the truth-namely,
that she had joined him in a runaway
marriage party until it should be too late
for interference; that is, until the minis
ter should have tied the knot between
them, that nothing but special grant Of
the Legislature could unite.
This scheme was not actually so ab-
surd as it appeared at first sight. Mag
gle Lee was tall, quecnly woman, with
an almost masculine air: and at that
time / had very slight form-almost
effeminate, so that in fact, there was re-
ally but very little difference in that
point. Then | had light hair, tolerably
long, and fresh complexion. Part my
hair in the middle, and put a bonnet on
my head, and few persons would have
suspected but what | was really one OF
the softer sex. These accessories also
gave me quite decided resemblance to
Maggie Lee, especially, as in this case,
the disguise was her own.
Then the day chosen for the runaway
match was an auspicious one. Maggie s
father was to drive her to D., a
small village near where she lived, and
there she was to join sailing party down
the D--river, to the grove three
miles below, from which the party was to
return in the evening in carriages.
Our plan was, | should be in waiting
in the village, and should go on the boat
with the sailing party, while Maggie, af
ter leaving her father, should slip off with
Bob Styles across the country.
At last | got dressed, and presented
myself before Maggie Lee, blushing a
great deal, [ believe, feeling very much
pinched about the waist, and with an
uncomfortable consciousness that my
my--shirt sleeves were too short, or want
ing altogether.
Everything finished in the way of toi
let, Bob Styles took me in his light wag
on, drove me over to D--by Sc
cluded route, and left me at the hote
where the sailing party was to assemble
Several of the picknickers were already
there, and they greeted my cavalier cor

asking if be was going with them, etc
lie told them he was not.

time to bring Miss Lee over, and now
am off. Mr., Bimby, this is Miss Lee,
and he ratified off long string of brie
introductions which convinced ME tha
but few of the con- pany were acquainted
with the young lady whom | was person
ating-a very fortunate thing for tn
preservation Of my disguise.
! Mr. Bimby, tall legal looking man
with hook nose, and eye glass, and hut
fy hair, seemed to be prepossessed witt

her head almost on my shoulder. and her
waist almost encircled by my arm. Just
as the party came along above us, laugh
ed out in a loud masculine voice:
Just think of poor what's his name
Bimby Suppose he knew that he had
been making love to a man p
Hush! cried Jennie Look, there he
is-and, oh, gracious there is the whole
party?'
Yes, we were fairly caught. 1t was no
use for me to clap on nay bonnet and as
sumo falsetto again-they had all seen too
much for that. Besides, by this time,
Bob Styles and Maggie Lee were doubt
less 'one fesh,' and disguise was of no
further Importance, SO owned up and
told the story.
Lawyer Bimby was in rage. He
vowed to kill me, and even squared eff,

so unmercifully, and suggested that we
