HERE is a romantic episode in quiet and
real life. A gentleman lived in Illinois
about twelve years ago whose name was
Warrington. His wife had child,a a girl,
but he was absent from the birth, and was
rightfully served for such remissness by
finding at his return to his home that the
spirit of his wife had fed, as had also his
daughter, who, he thought, had been ab-
Quoted by the nurse. Twelve years passed,
and the gentleman went to Kansas, but on
his way was in small town near Chicago,
where he saw little girl who in form and
feature closely resembled his wife. He
questioned her, followed her homo, and
found that the person whom she supposed
to be her mother was the old woman who
had nursed his wife during her last sick
ness The lady manifested no desire to re-
tain custody of the child, and the father
took her with him to the far-off wilds.

LOVE MAKING BY SIaNs-Tbe last num-
ber of Chambers Journal has an article on
the gesture language of Italy.
1t contains the following passages /:
"Love-making by signs is very general
The method has many recommendations !;
for as the lovers are not seen together, and
don't write, they are not easily found out.
Every window opens to the floor, and has a
balcony, so that neighbors have great facili-
ties for the pastime. The language of love
is very simple it is always the same, and
always interesting and new. The gentle
man begins by taking out his handkerchief,
which he passes over his face, looking all
the time at the lady, and throwing into his
face and eyes expressions of admiration for
her at The same time he com mpliments her
on her beauty by passing his hand over his
mouth and chin. The lady's answer is a
blush, hiding her face, except the eyes, be-
hind her fan, and pointing to the rear, to
indicate that mamma is coming, and re-
treats. Next time, the same play on the
gentleman's side, followed by possibly a
glance, not of discouragement, from the
lady whereupon he hugs his left side, to
express that he loves her to distraction /;
and the lady fees, to return the next day,
and observe the gentleman, of course to
her great astonishment and displeasure,
repeat the previous gestures, ending by
showing her the palms of his hands, and
looking entreatingly, which any young
lady, even unacquainted with the particu-
lar language in question, would understand
to mean, / VOW by, &c., that love you
more than-and so forth"
