GLUED no rms sPor.

We shall never forget that evening We
spent at Magrudcr's years ago, We ad-
mlred Miss Magrudcr, and we went
around TO see hcr. Ii was SKINNER time,
and moonlight and sbc sat upon the
piazza, The carpenter had been there that
day, glucing up the rustic chairs on the
porch, SO we took seat on the step, IN
front Of Miss Magrndor, where we could
gaze into her eyes and drink IN her smiles
It seems probable that the carpenter must
have upset his glue,pot ON the spot where
we sat- for after enjoying Miss Magru-
derss remarks for a couple OF hours, aud
drinking several Of her smiles, we tried
to rise for the purpose Of going home,
but found we were imoyeablo fixed 10 the
step. Then Miss Magruder said: Don't
be in a hurry" and we told her we be-
licyed we would't, The conversation had
sadder tone after that, and we sat there
thinking whether Il would be better TO
ask Miss Magruder TO withdraw while we
disrobed and went home IN Highland
costume, or whether we should urge her
to warm up tho poker SO that we could
thaw ourselves out; or whether we
should give terrific wrench and then
ramble down the yard backward. About
midnight Miss Magrudcr yawned and
said she believed sho would 20 TO
bed Then we suddenly asked her If she
thought her father would have any objec-
ton to lending us his front steps for few
days because we wanted TO take them
home for pattern. We think Miss Mag
|1uder must have entertained doubts ofour
sanity, for she rushed in, called hen father
and screamed. Magruder came down
with a double baueled gun. Then we
explained the situation IN a whisper, and
he procured a saw and cut ont the piece
Of the step to which hc were attached
Then we went home wearing the patch,
and before two O'Clock crushed out our
young love for Miss Magruder. We never
called again, and she threw her self away
on a dry-goods man. There is mean-
choly satisfaction in recalling these mem-
ories of youth, and Of rejecting upon the
influence Of glue upon the emotions Of
the human heart.
