the simplicity Of the process by WHICH
l hal "won" her.
The tete-a-tcto which shortly fo;-
lowed was not prolonged one 1t
was, however, long enough to con-
vince me that my new betrothed was
to prove II pleasing, gentle wife;
and it was with the sort Of relief one
feels in sitting down, after a hot and
weary journey, under fresh green
trees, that l accepted this now for
tune. Making my way to the quiet
deserted drawing room, / resolved to
write at once to my uncle.
1 thought it just rs well to say
nothing OF previous disappointments.
It was best he should suppose that,
after careful observation, / had
selected Matte as the most eligible
wife, and neice-in-law of the whole
party. rs L wrote, began to think
she was, and had commenced an
almost love-ikc description-'My
Matte is''-when the door softly
opened, and Ethel Crowdic, little
sylph-lihe thing. with violet eyes and
large brown eyebrows that met, stole
into the room. She had 81 rose IN
her hand, which, as she approached
me, she picked to pieces in IN en-
barrassed manner
'Mr. Purkiss-oh, Mr.. Purkiss!-

My mind misgave me. The pen
dropped from my hand.
"a secret, Miss Ethel? Mc?"
''Yes, you, dear Mr. Purkiss, for
no one else can help us; and oh, yon

Of your engagement, and asked me

'Mr. Lowry, the curate. Such q

but [ did; and now-oh, Mr.. Pur-
kiss! you haven't seen much of
Mattie-couldn't you, if yon tried
very much, like somebody else in

"Answer me one question first.
Did your sister authorize this ap-
peal?"
She inclined her head.
