MoonIiuht and Poetry.

Moonlight and Poetry.
A ball followed dinner that night,
Wednesday. The ample Longing
room filled up rapidly after coffee;
officers in smart uniforms and spurs,
whose principal function in times of
peace is to get in everybody's way,
rowel exposed ankles, and demolish
lace ruffles, Egyptians and Turks and
sleek Armenians in somber western
frock and scarlet eastern fez or tar
boosh, women Of all colors (meaning,
as course, as applied) and shapes and
tastes, the lean and the fat, the tall
and short, such as Billy Taylor is said
to have kissed in all the ports, and
tail-coats of as many styles as Jo-
seph's had patches. George could dis
tinguish his compatriots by the fit OF
the trousers round the instep; the
Englishman had his fitted at the
waist and trusted in Providence for
the hang of the rest. This trif1ing de-
tective work rather pleased George.
The women, however, were all Ewes
to his eye; liberal expanses of beauti-
modified by string of pearls or dia-
monds or emeralds, and hair which
might or might not have been wholly
their own. He waited restlessly for
the temperance of Mrs. Chedsoye
and her daughter. All was right with
the world, except that he was to sail
altogether too soon. His loan had
been returned, and he knew that his
former suspicious had been most un-
worthy. Mrs. Chedsoye had never
received his note.
Some one was sitting down beside
him. 1t was Ryanne, in evening
clothes, Immaculate, blase, pink
checked. There are some men so hap
PLY framed that they can don ready
made suits without calling your atten-
ton to the fact George saw at once
that the adventurer was one of these
fortunate individuals.
