A Misdral in Love.

The Kcokuk Gate City relates the
to!lowing:-"Ed. II. paid his address
ses to Rosa, the daughter Of a Dr.. p.
of this city, but his suit~was not IA
vored by her parents, and she was
di iven to make; cfandestine appoint
mcnts With her darling Ell. One Of
these cventuated funnily enough. Ed.
was to come to the house and wait out
side uutil the lights were turned of,
and then sic would=quietly let him in.
The evening came, and Rosa thought
her parents would never retire. But
after awhile Rosa slipped off into the
back parlor and sat down in the dark.
Her mother thinking all others had
gone to bed, lighted lamp, turned
off the gas, and wentsnp stairs to bed.
Butwhile she was standing in the hall,
at the head of the stairs, she heard a
gentle rap at the door. Fearing that
the wind might blow out her only
light, she thoughtfully setit down in
the, hall, and descended to the door
by its uncertain light. As she threw
open the door, in rushed Ed, and
Selling her in his arms, began such
a siege of kissing as to prevent her
crying out for aid. Poor Ed, did not
discover his error until he had called
out for his darling Rosa about ninety
times, and received upon his face a
blow in exchange for each kiss. But
hearing himself called an impertinent
villain, he incontinently fled the house
as greatly chagrincd as Mrs. 2. was
angry. T. ./.>'
"Whether his devotion or persist
ency:won the mother to his favor, is
not stated, but Ed. and Rosa were
shortly married, with the full consent
Of parents. 1t proved with Eds love
making, as it often does in cards, a
nisdeal changes the luck" .
