small audiences. The price of admis-

are not worth dollar to see. When the

Young people net often and naturally tell in
love with each other Mr.. Acotts social po-
sition and prospects being somewhat uncer-
tain at that time. he did not feel justified IN
asking this wcll-born and talented young
woman 30 marry him. He finally gave up his
position AMI they parted with NJ confessions
on either side. II was agreed however that
each should keep q journal and that these
Journals should be exchanged once IN so
often.
Thus matters went on for some time he
unwilling to ask 50 much and offer 20 little;
she willing TO give oil and chatting under a
woman's necessity Of keeping silent At
length one day. while reading The journal he
had sent her she came across few sentences
IN which he limited at his love and unhappi-
ness and wondered what sue would say II he
should ever presume 10 ask her hand in mar
rage. The moment was a critical one, but
Mrs Alcott was equal 10 it. Selling pen.
quickly and clearly she wrote underneath;
suppose You ask her and find out 1t is
said that the Journal Is still preserved IN the
Alcott family.
