Among the Flowers.

A young gentleman. whose gallantry
was largely in excess of his pecuniary
means, sought to remedy this defect
and save the money required for the
purchase Of expensive flowers by
arranging with a gardener to let him
have bouquet from time to time in
return for his casv-off clothes.
1t thus happened one day that he
received bunch Of the most beauti-
full roses, which he at once sent off to
his lady love. In sure anticipation OF
a friendly welcome he called at the
house of the lady the same evening,
and was not a little surprised at the
frosty reception he met with.
"You sent me note to-day" the
young lady remarked, after pause,
in the most frigid tones.
Ga note p he inquired in blank
astonishment.
''Certainly, along with nosegay.
"To be sure | sent you noscgay.
"And there was a note inside-do
you still mean to deny it?"
With these words she handed the
dumbfounded swain a scrap of paper,
on which the following words were
written: "Don't forget the old trou-
scrs you promised me the other day. "
