home at my aunt's. had not been there for
years. The boys had grown to men, and
they were all agreeable to me without
tormenting me after the manner of Touchy.
I anticipated two weeks of peace and happi-
ness. There was hardly time for them all.
Bright Hale had grown rich, and had good
ness knows how many turnouts and yacht
beside. Ernest Marvel, the boy had cared
best for at school, was now tall and hand
some. He was member of clubs, had con-
moment of NV day for which he had not
some plan. Then Harry Blake owned a
big store. and so on-and so on. MY head
kept buzzing all the time.
Bright saw the most of me. He had a
breezy way OF monopolizing one, and beside
he was just starting on q business trip to
California. The last Friday of my stay he
went away. He shook hands, kissed my
cheek, airily reminded me that was his
best girl forever, and that I might use his
carriage as often as 1 wished.

the life from me, and could not take my
eyes from his, angry and cruel as they were.
He must have seen how afraid I was, for of
sudden he loosed me, calling himself in O
miserable, shamed way brute
Iwould not let him turn away, and I said
in an eager tumble Of words: ''Please,

he went on: $50 everyone is falling in love

The words came slowly, and his lips, al

hastened to show how much I appreciated

''Thank you-thank you," said, adding
earnestly: "I love you more for that than

again: '.It would be kind to choose your

Among the birds that pipe or thrill
In grassy vale or wooded hill,
There lives not one upon the wing
So poor a fowl. so mean thing,
As one that lives in town.
The owls may hoot the nighthavks screech.
The whip-poor-will may ape our speech,
The crow may scream his scornfuf cav
But none are like this human daw
Which should be hooted down.
He dons gaudy coat and vest,
And thinks himself quite finely dressed,
To show himself from door to door,
Who mostly he is deemed to bore,
And greeted with frown.
You cannot oust him out Of sight,
He will pop in, as old friends might.

As does an honored son Of toll,
Or honest country clown. SEA.
