W. G. KENTzEL, Editor

your name Il must 60 back to tell
you that his own surname was then
the good one of Stuyvesant). Now
do for a long time. 1t made her ugly
to think her money would go TO hos
pitals and asylums, but she vowed 1t
should 60 there if Stuyve would not
take her name, and marry, SO that 1t
might be perpetuated. But Stuyve
had stuck to his art and his manhood,
until this girl came in his way.
Aunt Rutherford did not look much
at the wording of his promise. What
and the name should stay together;
and she did not care whether affection
or self-interest prompted him, rs long
as he came to her way in the end. So
she bcamed on him, and called him
dear. good boy, and sent for her law
yer. and the thing was done. And no
sooner was it done than Stuyvesant
went to Miss Wandering. won't say
that he put it quite this way. but 1t
was all the same as il he had said:
Now, Miss Wandering, I am rich,
too am to have my aunt's millions,
to match your own, house in town
and country seat, and 1 shall keep
yacht. l am not poor devil OF .
painter any longer, and want you to
marry me-
'Of course Miss Wandering threw
him over, as any girl of spirit would
have done. And Stuyve hadn't sense
enough to understand it. I think she
cared for him before, and if he had
gone to her In manly way and said:
81 love you, and l want you to be
my wife" I think he would have got
the girl. But as |. was-bah! it leaves
a bad taste in my mouth"
To wash it away the Old Beau
poured out q copious draught of wine.
And when he had drank it he went on
to the finish:
But he kept the money. and gave
his word to marry-some one-before
the year was 1dt. But Aunt Ruther-
ford died before that, and there was
no one to care whether he did or not.
So he never has. But he has the town
place, and the country place, and the
yacht. He had the impudence to ask
me to cruise with him one year-but
friend in the world he hasn't"
While my companion drank another
glass Of wine, thought Of the final
question:
And Miss vanderling?"
''She has never married. God bless
the girl"
From which l concluded that the
