THE JEALOUS TAILoRs.

Jared Milliken was the tailor of Blytown.
He was young man, but an excellent tailor.
The people liked his fits, and his custom was
on the increase Jared sat upon his board all
alone, with part of a coat upon his knees,
and his thimble upon his finger but Jared
was not at work. His head dropped, and his
bosom heaved. Ever and anon low sigh
would escape him, and his hand would be
pressed upon his heart All, Jared was in
love. He was deeply, passionately in love-
But he was not unhappy. No, no-far from it
at least he looked upon it as promise. He
had talked to her of love, and she had smiled,
and spoken of love in return. And then he
had tasted the nectar of her sweet lips. Yes,
he had kissed her hundred times, and she
had kissed him in return.
So Jared Milliken was very happy. If he
sighed, it was for love; and if he had wish
unfulflled, it was that he were not already
married. z.fl. g.- s a5
Thus. Jared sat whea the door was thrown
unceremoniously open, and a man entered.
He was a small-sized man. And as for that
natter, Jared was small-sized, too. Fl
Chow dye do 2" said the new conner.
.ssEh, Jerry, is it you?" cried Jared, throw
ing aside the part of coat over which he had
been signing.
aYes-it's me-"
aWhy, Jerry Hopkins! I'm glad to see ye."
Sand Pm glad to see Jared Milliken," re-
turned Jerry Hopkins. =
Now, Jerry Hopkins was tailor, too. He
was the tailor of Bintown. Bimtown was
only fifteen miles away, and stage ran from
Blytown to Bimtown twice a week.
Allows business?" asked Jerry.
"Pretty good, )" returned Jared. "How is il
with you r'
"Never was better. But what has happen
ed2 I thought you looked kind O. glum.
when came in. !"
"Glum Poohp'
"Ohl didn't know but your business was
slack"
"Never was better in the world"
HTm glad of it?"
What's the news? 2"
"Oh, nothing strange. I'm the newest
thing there is out"
Jared looked at his visitor, and there was
cast of pity in his countenanee For some
time, the conversation turned upon matters o
business, until finally, there came a silence
which was at length broken by Jared's asking
s"What brought ye up into this section?'
| s"Ah," said Jerry, with a dubious shake o
the head, "you'll laugh at me-" ,3
"Laugh? No shan't laugh. What was it?'
att was a female"
"Aho-ahar ha, ha p' laughed Jared. "Aha
ha, ha-your'e been and did it; Jerry. Ohio
aha-why-Jerry Hopkins you've been AM
followed me-"
aYou said you wouldn't laugh, you, Jare'
Milliken."
lI couldn't help ii, Jerry. You've bee
and followed me. Aha, ha ma? You've don
we'll But say, who is she, Jerry2"
"You must know her, Jared. She belong
here. But she's a beauty. Oh" pursue
