hopeful maiden, bag in hand, set ont Tor
Cambridge, and Miss Sally followed hts
ia spirit with some anxiety aud much
sympathy.
Margrry s scheme was to Cousin SaIy's
liking; but handsome Harry, busy with
his own plans and ambitions, had not the
faiptest remoniton that Nemesis was app
preaching him,
Sn far as bis gay ease loving disposition
would permit, those days were anzious
ores even to him. But his spirit did not
suffer thereby, aud it wes with an appetite
wholly urimpaired tbot be walked into
his boarding house, in time for dinner, on
on the evening Of the day of Margery's
pilgrimage to Cambridge,
There were several things on his mind
iust then, and a tomewb,t depressing Iel'
ter from his father was IN his pocket
But Fitch was telling funny story as
Harry seated himself At the table Catch
ing the point in bic quick way, he laughed
as heartily over it ss any. Then he him
self told an anecdots aprOpos Of the Other
and was listening co.hlencs from his
neighbor on ihe ll2ht,
Say, Emerson, Miranda has gone away
We have new table girl, aud she's
beauty.
Then behind him the new girl spoke

If he had l)tt his compoenre complele'
Y; if be had jumped up and deroopced
her. or even il be had tainted before bis
mulligatawny could reach bin, this new
table girl would hardly have been surp1Is'
ei But be did neither.
Staring slightly, he turued around aud
ooked her in the free: but though his
own rnddv cheek did change color, there
was no Reorganization 10 his gSzs. 10 the
coolies; possible voice he replied, Broth,
please.
Then Morrison across the able called

aud beauty.
Emerson, qnite in bis usual manner
I'm all Of that, assure you,
Bnt all bis sang .iroid could not pre-
vent him from finding that dinner ilt
ter one and bis fathers letter 10 his pockl
cts eem.d to have gsiIed an added
weight.
Au hour or two later, be retraced his
ST. ps toward the hoarding house, rang The (
bell. and brought the Ianalady herfeIt to ,
The door
van.to see the new table girl, Mrs
Cotio, he said. She left my mother only
this week, aud hsve message for her
Oh. its all right, be added lmpa lsntly, ss
Mrs c, fla fingered with some qnIry D
her eyes: you needn't be afraid
Concluding that even if 1t we're all wrong
she had nothing to fear, the lsGdiady went
on, at once and sent the girl 10.
Msr9,ry came, wI'h her pret'y hesn
erect and 20 fear in her innocent eyes
But rumult was 10 her hesrt, and at hrS'
she could not fud voice to answer hts i'm
