Jenaie, darling" he said, as they sat side
by side in the big. old-fashioned chair, whose
generous arms had often encompassed SINH
lar pair, ''my sweet girl'-and the fire
cracked and blazed, and snapped its lively
gIances Of light out and in the dark ening
room; my dearest one''-and the fitful shad-
ows came and went in the apartment making
grotesque figures upon the handsome walls;
eight of my life, and her pretty head
nestled con6dingly against his manly vest,
through whose folds the beating of his tender
heart was audible; my beacon highland he
pressed in his honest palm her little hand, oh,
SO little as he said, "my little pet''-and
outside the wind blew fierce, while dashing
rain snote hard against toe pane, heightening
the peaceful influence of the glowing CRATE;
my own dear girP'-and the tremor of his
voice was born of purest love; my guiding
star"-he said-he said-well, we hardly
know what else he did say, but it was enough
with woman's intuition she knew his
meaning, and scooped him in at once.
