How the Widow Caught Him.

A gentleman of an autObiogsaphical turn
relates how he was instructed in the custom
of taking toll, by sprightly widow, during
moonlight sleigh ride with q merry party.
He says:
1.-The lovely widow l.. sat in tho same
sleigh, under the Same buffalo rObc, with me-
''Oh! Oh! don't, don't !" she exclaimed,
as We came to the first bridge, at tho samo
time catching me by the arm and turning her
veiled face toward me, while her little eyes
tWinkled through the moonlight.
"Don't what5" asked. "Tm not doing
anything"
''well, but thought you wSre going to
take toll, replied the widow.
.Tollr' rejoined: What's that?"
'WOll, declare !" cried the widow, her
bells, "you pretend you don't know what toll
isw
Indeed don't then" said, laughing
"explain, if you please"
"YOu never heard, then !" said the widow,
most prOVokingly-''you never heard that
when we arc on = sleigh ride the gentleman
always-that is somotimes-when they cross
bridge call kiss, and claim il toll. But [
never pay it."
l said that never heard OF Il before but
when We came to the next bridge l claimed
the toll, and the widows struggles to hold
the veil over her face wero not enough to tear
it. At last the veil was removed, her round,
rosy face was turned directly toward mine,
aud in the clear light of frosty moon tho
toll was taken, for the first tine In my c&-
perience. Soon we came to long bridge,
with several Arohesj the widow said it was of
no use to resist a man who would have his
own way, SO she paid the toll without mur-
muir.
'But you won't take toll for every arch,
will you p she said, SO archly that could
not fail to exact all my dues; and that was
the beginning of my courtship.
