INTERESTING TALE.
My Merry Little Wife.

/ cannot remember the time when | was
not in love with Kitty Pleasanton. 1t must
have been when we were babies. | am
sure l loved her as we sat together by the
roadside, soaking our dandelion stems in
the little puddlcs of water to make them
curl. My passion was in nowise abated,
when, somewhat later, ] climbed cherry
trees at her bidding; nor, later yet, when
at dancing-school, L awkwardly made my
newly-learnt bow, and asked her to be my
partner; nor, | am sure, was my boyish
passion at all damped, when, on my return
from college, [ found my sweet little Kitty
changed, by some undefnable alteration,
from lovely child to bewitching young
woman. She was almost the same as when
| parted from her three years before-the
woman was like the child; there were the
rosy cheeks, the same pouting, innocent
mouth, the same curling hair, but some
charm, grace, or sentiment was added,
which made my heart thrill with new
emotion as | gazed at her.
kitty" said | to her one day, after l
had been home week o. two, and [ found
could restrain myself no longer, kitty,
I'm very much in love with you, as you
know as we'll as do. | have always been
in love with you, and l fancy you are in
love with me; but now 1 want you to
promise to marry me-" l paused, but
Kitty made no answer, and L said, "1ou
like me, don't you, Kitty Z"
"First tell me-" said Kitty, blushing,
and with an odd mixture of delight and
bashfulness in her face, off you have made
me what is called an offer Z"
'To be sure have, my darling" [ re-
plied-s'an offer which L trust and hope
you'll accept"
"Don't be too sure of that" said Kitty.
"Kitty, do you love me ?" exclaimed.
'eThat's my secret" replied the proyok-
ing little thing. "But, at any rate" she
continued, "I could not think of accepting
the very first offer L ever received l
should be mortified all the rest of my life
if | did. No, indeed. no girl of spirit
would dream of accepting her first offer,
as if she were afraid she should never have
another Excuse me, James, L cant pos
sibly accept you till I've had at least one
Offer"
"But, my dearest Kitty" began.
"Kitty, Kitty, Kitty" she exclaimed.
"Mr. Brant treats me with proper courtesy,
giving me my proper name, Katherine;
but now you've gone and spoiled it all"
"Oh, suppose you wanted stiff, GER
emonious proposal in form," l observed;
e'but 1 am no Sir Christopher Grandson,
Kitty-Katherine L would say; therefore
don't be foolish be content to know, In
plain terms, that my whole heart is yours;
and have the good sense TO accept your
first offer, since your second may not be SO
good"
