POLINTo'S LOVE TALE

! Aibu VI d CAtIEN man III d SAlbll NAllhEN
in eastern New York. In the same
place was a young ladies' seminary al
which. during several months of the
year, there were gathered from seventy
five to one hundred young women.
The son of a farmer in the vicinity
ignorant Of the world and unused To
society other than that Afforded by the
muscular girls OF the sparse farming
community, it may easily be fancicd
that the seminary students seemed to
me, with their fine dresses, their
sprightly faces and engaging manners,
to be beings of Il superior order. They
were. in my esteem, vcritable houris,
uncquallod in their charms and surpass-
ing in their attractions.
For months | was Contcntcd with dis
tant worship. To stand ON the piazza
of the tavern" on Sunday mornings
and watch the long double line of
youth, rs tn ey moved on their way to
church, was Il felicity that for the time
gratidcd my most ardent expectation.
At the outset my vision was so da22lCd
that | saw only IA winding. %sinuous line
Of exquisite color and beauty. In time
the glowing whole began To rcsolvCiu {
details; black eyes and blue: golden
ana raven locks: blondes aud bruncttcs:
lnuphinp mouths and slender forms
manifested themselves rs single stars in
n nchuln under the insnpction of n tclc-
scope
MANY of the Girls were commonplace
in appearance, and others became so
only after long observation. Many of
thcm were ncsscsscd of AVERAGE charms
while there were n half dozen or so of
superlatiye attractions. One of this
class attracted NV osnncial notice. no
merely on account of her hrnuiiful face.
