Sometimes paused to con sider how completely the girl was dom mating my thoughts. Even when a glimpse of Hiram Jones going stolidly about his business reminded me of the uncertainty of my position, I found myself speculating more about what she might think, if the worst came to pass, than about the extent of the mis

 we had been very good friends, she and I. We were very good friends now, but with difference. What a dull | ride ] had if she declined to accom- pany me. how the evening dragged if she kept out of sight. what a wrotchcd 1 substitute for her presence was even the best pipe in my growing coilec- ton! How was it that when we were i together, even if our talk lanSuished. the time never passed heavily? How 1 had it come about that I no longer de bated the question of her beauty, nc ] longer compared her with this girl or i that? Such questions I asked myself | now and then, puzzling ny brain with l enGcavors to answer them in any other way than the one in which they could
 be answered. The simple truth of the matter was, of course. that l ha,! fallen in love; but for difficulty of compre- hension commend me, above all things
 to a so-called simple truth. Anybody, if he will take the trouble, can follow out a long and logical deduction, but to very few men is it given to perceive at | once the meaning of the thing which
 once understood. we call sclf-evident. From the vantage-point of later yoar:. I have figured cut, to ny own sat:sfac tion at least, that I passed from ths comparatively placid state Of friend | ship about two weeks after DorotE. Gray's arrival in Ecsinevtown.

She was not in the house, Mrs. Clark said, and I was gazing about rather disconsolately, when I caught sight of a parasol showing above the walls of a lane leading to an orchard, in the shade of which Miss Gray some times passed morning. Setting out in pursuit, gained upon her so rapidly that when I turned into the lane she was not more than hundred yards in the lead. To my surprise, she halted, then turned with cry, and, picking up her skirts, began to scud toward me. in full flight, as saw an instant later, from an old and evil-tenpered boar, usually safely penned behind Mrs. Clarh's barn, but evidently very much at liberty at that particular moment. The brute was close to her. His tusks looked as long and sharp as knives; as he galloped on, they came nearer and nearer to his prey. I gave shout and | sprang forward, but had she been forced to depend upon my aid her danger would have been great indeed, for long before I could have reached her the boar would have overtaken her. He was right at her heels, when. armed
