The fashionable Lie, Not at Home. >

81 never" says a lady, "sent that message
to the door but once, and for that once L shall
never forgive myself. 1t was more than three
years ago, and when L told my servant that
morning to say Not at heme,' to whomsoever
might call, except it was some intimate friend,
L felt my cheeks tingle, and the girls look of
surprise mortified me exceedingly But she
went about her duties and | about mine, some
times painfully smitten with the reproaches
of conscience. Thus the day wore away; and
when Mr.. Lee came home he startled ne with
the news that a very dear and intimate friend
was dead. 1T cannot be- was my reply, for
she exacted of me a solemn promise that 1
alone would sit by her dying pillow, as she
had something of great Importance to reveal
to me- Here suddealy a horrible suspicion
crossed my mind. She sent for you, bat you
were not at home,' said Mr. Lee, iRnocently ;
t en- he continued i am sorry for Charles,
her husband; he thinks her distress mueh ag-
gravated by your absence, from the fact that
she called your name piteously- He would
have sought for you, but your servant said she
did not know where you had gone. l am sor-
ry. You must have been out longer than
usual, for Charles sent a servant over here
three times Never in all my life did L e1-
perience such loathing of myself, such utter
humiliation. My servant had gone further
tn n 1, in adding falsehood to falseheod, and
l had placed it out oil my power to reprove her
by my own eQuivocation. 1 felt humbled to
the very dust and the next day 1 resolved
over the cold clay of my old friend that 1
would never again, and under any c~ircumstan-
ces, say, Not at kome.'"
