two O'Clock before Herman found him
self at liberty to go back to his hotel,
He Immediately despatched a boy with
his card to Miss Nunly. He wrote the
following words on the card, before
placing it in the envelope: ''Nfiss Nunly,
will it be too great an assurance in me
to ask you for an interview this even
ing? wish to beg your pardon FOR an
offense committed the last time we met. /"
Miss Nunly's reply was that she would
be glad to receive an old friend. Ae-
cordingly, evening found him on his
way to visit the girl he loved so ardent
ly, and yet to whom, at their last meet
ing, he had said the bitterest words he
had ever spoken to any human being.

CHAPTER III.

Winter had passed away and spring
was opening, when one day Herman
read an announcement in the journal
that there was to be grand meeting of
the Woman Sufiragists in his own city,
All the friends of the cause were invited.
Several ladies were announced to lee
ture in the evening. Among them was
Miss Nina Nunly, of Weston, who was
that evening to make her debut as q
lecturer. The paper spoke of the great
brilliancy Of her personal appearance,
and of the fire Of genius that undoubt-
edly lurked within.
Notwithstanding our friend Herman
had said hundreds of times that he
never would listen to a woman lecturer
for he was certain no lady would ever
attempt to lecture-this announcement
set him to deliberating. Should he go
and decide for himself If it was possible
for a woman to occupy so public posi-
ton and at the same time maintain that
modest demeanor that is the great
charm of the sex? He finally decided
to go.
Herman Powers was an impatient
listener among the crowd that had con-
gregated that evening. He had come to
hear Miss Nunly, and he cared not to
listen to the several ladies that first
claimed the attention of the people.
When the President Of the meeting
announced Miss Nina Nunly, all heads
were bent eagerly forward to catch a
better view of the modest, yet won
drously beautiful girl that made her ap-
pearsnce on the rostrum; and every one
listened breathlessly, as she began in a
low, passionate voice, TO plead In behalf

CHAPTER II

Herman sought Miss Nunly,s side
that evening, as often as he could. with
due regard for appearances. When the
party broke up, he had the pleasure of
escorting her to her fathers earriaoa
which had been sent to take her homo
and received an invitation to call at her
fathers house the following evening.
The day after the party seemed to
Herman to be Of interminable length.
He received calls from several young
gentlemen acquaintances made the

But all days have an ending, and al
that one drew to a close, Herman
walked out in the direction he had
twice gone before, and soon came to the
house belonging to Mr. Nunly. 1t wai
a noble mansion, standing far back in
a yard well filled with trees and flowers.

Brilliant Success.

1t is permitted to few men or companies
TO achieve acknowledged superiority in
any important position or business. The
present generation has witnessed stupen-
dous rivalry In several branches Of indus
try, and notably the Sewing Machine bust
ness. Amid a multitude of competitors,
steadily and surely the Wheeler q viii
son Company held their way from the be-
ginning upon fixed and honorable princi-
Piles. Long since, their leading position In
America was established. Abroad. at Lon
don, in 1862, they won the highest prem
iums; at Paris. in 1861, they distanced
eighty-two competitors. and Were awarded
the highest premium. the only Gold Medal
on Sewing Machines exhibited /; and lastly,
amid unparalleled competition, followed
the splendid triumphs at Vienna, noted in
our advertising columns.

The Hon. John NJ. Francis, late Min
lister to Greece. writes to his paper. the
Troy, y. Y. Times. about the drinking
habits of Europe. He says that in France,
Italy. Spain. Germany, and Greece. where
the consumption of wine is very great.
there is far less drunkenness than in Great
Britain or the United States. His opinion
is that the sube tituuon ofmild wine for the
whisky so generally drank here would be
a reformatory agency i'm checking intern
perance. The result of his personal OBJ
servation in Spain was that wine shops
\ met him at every turn. but he rarely saw
a drunken man. Outside of the English
and American ~colonists he knew of very
little drunkenness in Paris. In Germany he
witnessed a tremendous flow of lager, but
believes the proportion ofconfirmed inebri-
ates there does not equal one TO twenty OF
the same class here. In Russia n liquor
stronger than our worst whisky is used
with bad results. and i'm Great Britain the
evil somewhat approaches its extent in the
United States. Glasgow was the most
drunken city he saw abroad.
