died after two years married life he
felt overwhelmed and had never since
wholly recovered from the blow.
Katharine, the elder of the two step
children, had just finished her Goth year,
and, as she was as proud, pretty, and
| just as vain as her mother, had already
laughed at many proposals for her nan !
and money. No one had so far beef
able to take her fancy.
Lii was in almost every respect the
| opposite of her sister. Small Of figure,
quiet and retiring, it happened that she
was often entirely overlooked. 1t GER
tainly was not right of a father to love
one daughter more than another.
Still he did so, and it was plain to
everybody that it was the soft, sweet,
patient Lii who was his favorte.
1t made Katharine feel annoyed to
see her father SO gentle and affectionate
toward her sister, for she said, with a
sharp look at them both:
What! kissing again! l cannot I'M
derstand how you find pleasure in al
ways lying round each others necks."
you are out of sorts. Katharine"
y
expected has not come, perhaps. 1
would almost wager that among all
those letters there is none from Baron
Horn! Eh?"
Katharine grew shade paler at these
words.
Il certainly expected card from
Baron Horn" she replied, trying to con-
ceal her annoyance. He surely has
sent me one! Are you sure you emptied
the mailbag thoroughly"
"Yes, think SO. But you had better
look yourself; it would not be the first
time that a letter has remained stuck
III one Of the corners"
"Ah! thought So" exclaimed Katha-
rina, pulling a crumpled letter out of
deep corner of the bag. a
She glanced quickly and sharply at
the address, and then with an exclama-
ton of veXation let the letter .hurriedly
drop.
mot from Baron Horn after all ?'
asked her father, picking it up, land
yet-that is his writing. Heavens!
why it's to you, Lii; it's addressed to
YOU"
"Oh! impossible!" said Lii, quietly,
while faint blush rose to her pretty
cheeks. 1T must be mistake"
"By no MEANS" returned her father,
smiling. Here open it. Let US all
see it. Oh, what a lovely card! Why,
Katharine, where are you going?"
But the father received no answer.
Katharine hurriedly gathered up her

cred his escort to the two young

offered his escort to the two young
ladies.
The baron was as punctual as most
lovers-that is to say, he came half an
hour before the time, and found Kath-
arina quite ready. to his great astonish-
ment. for as rule she kept everybody
waiting half an hour at least.
Her purpose of frustrating tete-a
tete between Lii and the baron was
completely successful, for she did not
move from his side until they all three
were ready to get into the carriage.
The father stood with beaming face
on the doorstep and waved fond fare
well after them.
This Horn is a very sensible fellow"
he thought to himself, land l admire
his choice. 1t will be very hard to lose
Lii, but would let him have her rather
than anyone else"
Although the bazaar was crowded, the
arrival of Baron Horn and his two love-
ly companions caused considerable ex-
element and they were speedily sur
rounded by acquaintances.
Among these was a Capt. Linke, u
tall, blond fellow, and one of Kath-
arina's most sincere and faithful ad-
mirers.
"How glad L am to see you here" he
said.
Really? Why?"
"May | show you why? Please come
with me. At the other end of the hall
is fortune teller, and want you to sec
what she will tell YOU"
MAY we join your" asked the baron.
Certainly. Come, we will all so to
gether.'
The mysterious room that held the
fortune teller was reached. The for
tune teller proved to be little figure in
the middle of disc.
Round the disc were figures and mum
bers and slips of paper arranged. Any
one who wanted to see into the future
paid a mark, set the figure revolving
and took the slip of paper opposite
which it stopped.
"Now, my genaediges fraulein." said
the captain, taking out his purse,
won't you try your luck?'
But Katharine refused positively to
be party to such nonsense, and, mas
much as Lii could not be persuaded
either, the baron asked permission tc
inquire of the oracle himself.
q He set the figure in motion and took
the, slip of paper opposite which it
stopped.
"Seek her hand and buy the ring,
Thy life will then be full of joy" ran
the words on it.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1895-12-25

The baron tried to catch a glance
from Lii, but she appeared to be alb
sorbed in the nature and character OF
| the floor and would not raise her eyes.
"Potz Blitz!" cried the captain, turn
ing to Katharine, that is famous; you
really must be persuaded to try it now.
Or, shall do it for your"
You may do it for me-" she replied,
| in such sharp tones that everyone
| looked at her.
The captain turned to the figure and
read the words: Hast thou not often
| heard it said" He hesitated, then
tore the paper up and threw it on the
floor. The conclusion of the sentence
seemed to suit the many proposals that
Katharine had received too well for
him to read it.
What was the rest, captains" asked
the baron, in all innocence. But the
captain looked so displeased that the
question was not pressed.
81 wonder what it WASP" Lii whis
pered to the baron.
1--WE shall learn later, perhaps" he re-
piled. "But did you get my New Years
card this morning?"
"Yes," she answered, softly, with
blush.
And do you remember what the for
tune teller told me just now? If l buy
a ring will you wear it?"
He drew deep sigh of relief as he
saw his answer in her happy. blushing
face.
She lowered her eyes and said: Il
don't know. You must first speak TO

letters and left the room in a whirl-
wind.
The aforementioned Baron Horn
was young nobleman who had just re-
turned from Africa. twas well known
that he took great pleasure in visiting
the Won Krohn family, and under all
manner of pretexts took every oppor-
tunity to be with them. Of course
everyone thought that the attraction
was the rich and beautiful Katharine,
and she herself took particular pains
to spread this view of the matter.
Accustomed as she was to large
number of enthusiastic admirers, she
had never for a moment imagined that
the baron could interest himself in her
quiet little sister until she was re-
minded to-day in rather unpleasant
manner of the possibility of such a
thing.
She read her letters through and be-
came better humored.
How stupid of ME to get SO cross"
she said, as she smiled at her lovely face
in the glass. 1T is not possible that
he favors Lii when he knows me-"
There came gentle knock at the
door, and the servant girl came in and
announced that the carriage was at the
door.
Katharine at once remembered that
Baron Horn had promised to go for a
drive with her. and with this thought
her face grew bright once again.
A charitable bazar was to be opened
in neighboring town. and. as the ia
Their was not able to so, Baron Horn had

repeat that the whole custom of send,
ing New Years cards is & cursed bad
one, and it is time to put an end to 1t.
What are the results of such nonsense?
First, l get my mail bag an hour
later than usual, and, secondly, it is
crammed so full with the stupid stuff
that can hardly get it open!"
At length the old gentleman's efforts
were rewarded, the bag sprang open,
and he emptied it's contents with i'm
patience on the breakfast table.
""To Fraulein Katherine Won
Krohne,'" he read. "My God! are they
all for you, Kathinka?''
Don't be so unbearable, papa, and
please don't call me Kathinka."
The old gentleman replied to his
daughters request with an unintelli-
gible growl and went on drinking his
coffee.
"Just look what a lot there are for
mel" cried Katharine, piling the let
tiers upon the table in front of her and
her face lighting up with pleasure.
Are they all for your"
eyes, all. Now you can see what it is
to be known as a beauty"
''And an heiress," added the father
"Yes, and an heiress," she repeated,
thoughtfully.
But is there nothing there for my
little Lili?' asked her father.
HnR1 o, oh
shoulders impatiently.
why, Of course not. If d girl expects
to be shown much attention she must
be little more pushing and impor-
tant."
"And an heiress, too," was the fathers
laconic addition to the sentence.
Il really should be very grateful, IA
ther, il you would not allude SO much
to my money" was the rather curt pro-
test.
II can't help it, Katharine, when |
see my little Lii here, as beautiful as
the flowers that gave her the name, and
well, she is not an heiress, do you
understand? That's the whole thing"
Katharine made no answer. She was
busily studying the handwriting on the
envelopes.
A young girl who had hitherto sat
opposite to her in silence left her seat,
went up to the high bailitf, and putting
her fair young arms round his neck,
gave him kiss.
A world of love shone in his eyes as
he looked at her with pleasure and
stroked her soft cheeks.
'Never mind, Lili," he said, slowly.
81 am glad that you don't get such a
pile of letters. I'm grateful, too, that
you're not an heiress. Perhaps then no
one will take you away from me-"
Tears came into the girls eyes, for,
hough she said no word, yet the thought
that no one had remembered her or
cared enough for her to send her New
Years card made her sad. But she
forced herself not to cry, and tried to
conceal the few tears that would not be
kept back by kissing her father again
lovingly on the eyes and lips.
The high bailiff of Krohn, the father
of these two girls, had married twice.
His first wife, a lovely, proud, but vain
woman, died soon after the birth of a
little daughter and left her the whole
of large fortune. His second wife.
