so TERRIBLY JEALOUS.

stamped her little foot, and her. big
brown eyes snapped fire as she OK
claimed in tones sayagely kissing: e

the foot came down. ''And right in the
face and eyes of society. Kate Bixby
and Belle Bounderly both saw him
gallivanting downthemain street with
her. Oh, oh, oh!'' !
At this point her voice seemed to fail
her; but presently she continued:
''Oh, Mr.. Henry Gilman, ifyou don't
get a piece of my mind when next you
insult me by your presence, then I
shall miss my guess. Oh, you black
hearted, abominable, hypocritical,
faithless, wicked, wicked mani"
1t was a terrible blow for poor jose
phine. She was a pretty girl and a
good girl, only Is years OF age; bright,
winsome and mostly laughter-loving.
But she didn't care to laugh just now.
She was the light and the Joy of her
home-an only child-the pet and the
playfellow of both father and moth
er.
Two years previous to this time
Henry Gilman, Esq, young lawyer
just admitted to the bar had selected
our thriving, growing town as the field
of his legal labors.
He had been only one-and-twenty
! when he first came among us, but he
was man Of powerful intellect, keen,
bright and quick to see and under
stand; a ready and fluent speaker; elo-
| quent when warm in debate; scrupu-
lousy truthful and honest; and, with
all handsome,
Such q man could not fail, and he
did not.
Within twelvemonth after he had
established himself with us he had
gained a lucrative practice, and by the
end Of the second year, at the age: Of
23, he was unable to attend to all who
called upon him for professional SER
vice. H."
And Henry Gilman had fallen in
love with Josephine Archer, and she
had fallen in love with him; some Of
her most intimate friends said she had
fallen desperately inlove; and we think
they We're right.
When the young lawyer spoke with
her parents on the subject OF his love
they were reioiced. They knew not an
other man in all the world whom they
would have chosen in preference to
him for their daughters husband
They knew how light-hearted and i'm
pulsive and efferyescent she WAS, and
they believed that he possessed the
qualities, both of head and heart, nee
essary to her, happiness. ...
| Gilman had told Mr.. Archer frankly
that he possessed nothing Of worldly
goods upon which to depend for a liv-
! ing. His father had died when he was
| Is, leaving enough Of property for the
support of his mother, with enough to
finish his education.
On the day that I passed my exam
nation and was admitted to the bar
l ceased to draw from thescanty store
my father left. and I promised my
| mother that while she lived would
not draw another penny; and Ionly
pray that she may live to enjoy the
| very last farthing OF it." - t.E
So the lover had been accepted by
all concerned, and all had been very
happy in view of the compact.
| But a cloud had arisen, as we have
seen, and a storm was threatened
j. More than once had Josephine prom
Used her lover that she would never,

Hehad quietly seen how ardent and

Il .sMy darling, if you should ever har-
