II wish, my love, YOU would be sociable. -
OOr LULA was forced to make a show of be-
ing sociable. The guest was in the happiest
humor; he laughed and joked with her. Duna
gradually forgot her terrors, grew boIder, de-
Tended herself becomingly, nay, laughed aloud,
and endeavored to disguise her intense anxiety
under show of cheerfulness, while in secret
she prayed fervently to heaven that the red
nogei guest might soon eat and drink his fill,
and take his leave, and che Incompatible Ivan
might soon arrive to indemnify her sensitive
heart for this fearful torment
Alas! Ivan who had got leave from the
LEFT the town, and, sped with hasty
steps, and with heart brim full of tenderness
and hope, to meet her He walked not, he
flew. Cupid had fastened his own wings to his
boots. He few like an arrow. But on his way
lay brandy shop; there is no road without
them: He would have flown by it; but in the
brandy shop were his acquaintances, his beloved
friends He made halt with them for mo.
ment, only moment, and got tipsy with them.
1t happened quite against his will; he was even
IN despair at it. Altogether, it was one of the
Friendship over Love.
