An Unfortunate Repeal.

We were truly astonished and panied to note the

had been sick with fever.
AS for her, she looked upon him with favor; she
would take his hand as they walked along the
beach, and when the water spread further than
she expected on the sand she would cry: "Look
out, Harry, dear!" or the like.
He presumed he ought to be happy-there was
no reason why he should not be; Others in his po-
ston would have been.
All. yes it was we'll enough-until the 5 O. clock
express from New York came in, Then she would
be dressed in something wonderful in blue and
gold, or in gray and black, or in pink and white;
and she would sit upon the broad piazzas OF the
hotel and chat and gossip with the men. Of
course, when he came up she treated him cvllly,
decently, and he had no fault to fnd-no fault,
that is, in order. Yet he asked himself sometimes
if she was treating him as one individual or as a
species.
Ell bien! One day, fourteen Saratoga trunks
were loaded on the blue express wagons at the
side door. A good many of the trunks belonged
to her. She was going away.
He sat idly IN an of the piazza, with his patent
leathered feet on the railing
She came to him. She was dressed for travel
In a tailor-cut gown with paitings of Indian cloth
on the front of the waist, and with black veil
that could not haze the sparkle of her eyes.
She held out her hand and then impusively she
took his head in her hands and kissed him.
What thrill went through him.
He looked up-she was gone. Shortly he
heard the rumble of the stage. Then he heard
nothing, except that he imagined that he heard his
heart beat.
He was all alone, and he let his head drop on
his breast, and he cried, as though his heart would
break
For, after all, he was only years old.-Kate
