Mr.. William Woodhouse was natural
ly very timid man. Not that he was

he was afraid of The women. On all
other occasions he was usually equal TO
the emergency, be it whatever it might !;
but place him tete-a-tete with a woman,
and, to use vulgar but expressive phrase,
be Nas done for.
His mother had long ago settled down
TO the uncomfortable conviction that Will
liam would never marry; and the girls
bad arrived al the same concl usion; il
had become quite the thing to say, in
making comparisons, "as great a fool as

FOr-take note, bashful young gentle
men-however much ladies may admire
modesty in the other sex, they invaria-

VIII admired all the girls in his way
but he looked upon them very much as
sensible people do upon hornets nest,
as a curious piece of architecture but not
safe TO be familiar with.
So he kept his distance, and in the
meantime arrived at the mature age of
twenty-tbree. Then he met, for the

stoniest hearts fall in love at pic-nics,
and from that hour poor Will had no com

dreams were full of the beautiful Miss

Adelaide, all unconscious of the
trouble she had caused, went her way,
breaking the hearts of most of the young
gentlemen in Highbridge- and trying
hard TO fracture the few that remained
whole.
She was visiting her aunt Hooper, and
it is an undsniable fact that ladies always
take best where they are not known.
This is no lible on the sex-no indeed
for with gentlemen this truth is still
more applicable.
Mrs. Hooper was widow of no small
personal attractions in her own estima-
ton. and if she was not so young as she
might have been, she thought she was,
and behaved accordingly. She still af'
