1 OdlluUI huUlu Liza
Dir. st. John entered the fashionable
dry goods store Of Lowering d Broth
ers to see one Of the propretors.
He has stepped out for q amomont," "
one Of the clerks informed him.
And withdrawing to an obscure cor
ner, he stood watching, with half
amused, half comIca look upon his
| handsome face, the streams Of gaily
attred women that Aoated past him,
gazing with onyious and admiring eyes
upon Tie rich fabrics, Of every hue and
texture, that were suspended from the
ceiling and spread out on the broad
counters.
tlany Of them were known to him
but he was in no mood 70 meet the
sparkling glances and gay aallies that
he knew would be sh0wered up
on him if he made them aware Of his
presence for Mr. St. john was rich
and bachelor, and had been 60 fiat
tered and besieged by ambitious nam
mas with marriageable daug ghters as to
make him almost resolve to always
remain one.
SO he stood back in the shadow,
marking with curious eye unconscious
betrayaIs of the natural dispositions,
like glimpses Of feminine human nature
and which the dear creatures would
not have had him observe for the
world.
AS he stood there the two Misses
Parker came in, charming and brilliant
girls, in whose society he had passed
many pleasant hour.
They were lavish in their purchases
And Mr St John contrasted tteir
smiling faces with tho care-worn face
Of their father, whom he met in the
street scarcely ar hour before, hurrying
from enc friend to another to borrow
money to pay note on the point Of
being protested; their lively chatter
Jared harshly on his ears.
"Isn't it lovely" exclaimed one of
the sisters, holding up some costly lace
trimmings. 81 suppose pa will scold
when he sees the bill but SO he would
if it were culy half as large"
"To be sure ne would" responded
the other. land I'm not going to let
the Dayton girls outshine me, you
may certain. It's NY belief that they
give the party simply 81 account of
St. Johns return from Europe, l
suppose they are trying to catch him
for Georgianna. Did ynu ever hear
anything SO ridiculous ?"
"Never! Such horrid taste as the
girl has in dress, too She showed me
the new silk she is going to wear.
Would you believe it 1t is blue! And
she is dark as an Indian"
"That is for the benefit of Mr. st.
John; it is his favorite color l met
him on the street yesterday. How tall
and handsome he has grown"
Yes, and he is so rich! Pa says he
is worth half million, ifnot more"
Here the two girls passed along out
of sight and hearing, quite unconscious
of their proximity 10 the subject OF
their remarks.
Good heavens" was Mr.. st. Johu's s
inward reflection; "are all women so
heartleGs, so wrapped in vanity and
display"
He was about to quit the store in
disgust when his attention was arrested
by low and gentle voice, which
aroused host Of vague but pleasant
recollections. He turned eagerly in
the direction whence it proceeded ;
and as his eyes rested upon slender,
neatly attired lady, they lighted up
with pleasure.

the bonnet, though neat and fresh, was
not OF the lates. style, and the mantle

LIFE AND HEALTH.
Professor F0wler's Free Lecture at
Masonic HAL.

From the Nashville Bamerl
Prof. 0. 5. Fowler, the well, known
phrcnologist Of New York, gave free
lecture at Masonic Hall, last night,
which was largely attended, The Pro
fessor's theme was life aud health, and
he threw out great many common
sense notions and ideas, rs well as
promulgating some theories which he |
styled Os heresies, from the fact that
they are not as yet generally acknowl. |
edged by the scientific world. The
lecturer started out with the assump-
ton that great many Of the vices o!
mankind, and their sins against them
selves and the world, arose from de |
ranged vital action. For instance,
when child was in good health, it
was very likely to be amiablc and du
tirul, but, when unwell, cross and fret
ful. Children were often hoggcd when
they we're simply sick, and nothing
else the matter with them. The way
to promote morality and good healthy
feeling generally, was to cultivate the
physical system TO the highest pitch
1t was q lam9ntable fact that many
wives, by too great deyotisn to their
families, become cross, and Grabbed,
and scolG;ng. 1t was but too true,
that children were often permanently
injured by confinement at school, with
lack Of sufficient exercise. He recon
mcnded less hours Of study, and morc
of play and out door exercise.
Breathing was one OF the first things
TO be considered III the promotion oi
good health. The Professor gave the
