CHAPTER XIV.
THE FIRST MISTAKE.

THE FIRST MISTAKE. q
where were we, Corinth ~
asked my aunt a few evenings
later, when Mr.. Bosworth en-
tered and requested me to con-
tinue our reading.
"Annie Sorr had just seen
John,"'I replied.
ooh! yes, and he was to dine
with them; go on, childp"
/ began at once
A few days after the young
carpenters arrival my father
was called away to Maine, where
he had some woodland, and we
were left alone in the old home.
l felt sure then, and do now, as ]
think of it, that his absence was
the worst possible thing for me.
Before leaving he had discovered
that an addition to the kitchen
and 'buttery,' as Aunt Nancy
called our large store closet, must
be made, and this would compel
Mr.. PeCkham to remain with us
longer. T was very shy and
dared not look at the stranger,
Until one day Sue remarked,
that he was quite handsome,
and did not look in the least like
a common workman then L.
watched him for few moments
and declared that / did not agree
with her; Harry was far more
imposing and even Loring had
much finer face.
Soon after my fathers de-
partufe Sue came to stay with
us; and her fun-loving spirit kept
us from being lonely. l saw
that Mr.. Peckham liked her, and
frequently made some quiet an.
swer to her sauey speeches.
1t is impossible to tell how ac-
quaihtanees grow, and yet the
young man, who sat at our table
day after day, soon ceased to be
a stranger. Aunt Nancy was
wonderfully gracious to him.
He Praised her cooking, deferred
to her Judgment in every partic--
ular; and consulted her very oft
EN- concerning new shelves,
brackets locks and other things
designed to make our pantry
very complete and orderly.
/ had never seeh Aunt Nancy
so cheerful and happy; no one
could dispute her authority. now,
and this agreeable young work
man praised her constantly.
One evening she informed Sue
and myself, as we sat chatting
before bedtime, that Mr.. Peck
ham came of eAeellent people,
that his mother was infirm; and
his only sister lived with her in
Vermont, and cared for her.
yes, and he supports them,'
said Sue; 'hs IBID me So
+ why, sue,' l exclaimed, how
dared you talk with him?'
7 didn't said Sue in her gay
manner; he talked to me; 1
stumbled over his tool-box and
upset a board and Knocked down
no end Of things, and then we
both laughed, and he said I re-
minded him of his sister, al
though she was Somewhat older
than your humble servant. He

Sue and / were reviewing for

then I was a timid school girl,

Aunt Nancy would,not approve

The Prince of Wales is invariably
gloved, and well gloved at that. He
wears gloves whenever he stirs out
of the house, and in the evening at
the theatre, or at private entertain
ments, his hands are always enveiop-
ed in we'll cut. single button, pearl
gray kids. He retains his glove when
shaking hands, but the person whom
he thus greets is expected to bare his
hand before extending it. Thus at
the levees held by the Prince on be-
half of the Queen at ST. James's
Palace the ushers and other func-
1ionaries of the Lord Chamberlain's
department who are on duty are care
fui to see that each man before en-
tering the royal presence has his
right hand barred and bis left care lily
gloved.
In the Middle Ages the etiquette
with regard to gloves was far more
stringent than it is at present. For
instance, no one was permitted to en-
ter a church wearing gloves, which
were considered just as out of place
as it would nowadays be to remain in
n sacred edifice with the hat on.
Nor were the great officers of the
royal aud imperial courts permitted
to wear gloves while fulfilling their
official duties. 1t was for hidden in
France for the coachman and grooms
to enter the royal stables without
previously removing the gloves
from their hands. Curiously enough.
gloves went out of fashion. almost en-
rirely during the latter portion of the
eighteenth century, and onlv reap
peared after the great French revolu-
ton, 100 years ago. The first gloves
that were ever heard of are those
mentioned in the history of the Ro-
man war against the Gauls. The lat
ter, we are told, had their hands en-
veloped in coverings made of the skins
of animals in order to preserve them
from the cold.
One of the peculiar features of the
madness of the Inflated ex-Empress
Charlotte, of Mexico, is that she re-
quires a fresh pair of pearl gray two
button kid gloves on rising every
morning throughout the year. If
by any mishap there is no fresh pair
at hand, and an attempt is made to
furnish her with gloves that are not
entirely new, her insanity assumes for
a moment q violent form, and con-
tinues until she is appeased by a fresh
pair.-1he Nescdrk Daily Advertiser.
