I hated it; and 1 was miserable. Those four girls tormented me; they were not lovable, and I yearned after the little ones in the nursery. y employers were kind, I think; but a governess Is rarely very happy: and I was young and lonely—an orphaa and alone in the world. I had no relatives, save an uncle in Aus- ia. who sometimes wrote to me, and occa- 8 ent ime a five-pound note. Mr. Ponsonby was our reetor—an old clergy- man of the humdrum style, and the greater share of his work fell to the hands of neophytes, who came and went in suce n. We—that is I, and n lest pupil, Caroline—used to teach in the Sanday school. Mrs. Thomson liked her giris to be useful; and, as Caroline was only six- teen, she wished me to help her teach by taking part of her class. I was vexed at this, for did I bot teach all the week? And yet I grew to like the work. The solemn-taced, little rustics were a weekly relief, in th sin plicity and awe-struck respect for “teaches from the alrs and graces of the young ladies in the school-room. On the Sunday that I saw Mr. Clitheroe first I was teachiug my small scholars, when the door opened and the rector came in. He never minded me, and I continued trying to impress come fact on the blue-eyed innocent who stood demurely before me, and who. as I firmly believe, was counting the bright buttons on my jacket in- stead of listening. Suddenly I raised my eyes It was grave, quiet and intellectual.

He drew all simple story out of me, and [told him all my “disagreeables” and troubles. He was so kin he cheered me, he spoke of himself also. In fact, as we sat there chatting, I forgot that I was governess—forgot that Iwas on earth, till some one called me away, and I did not speak to him again that day. T came back to mundane things sharply enough when stupid little Caroline came simper- ing up and began to teaze me about him, not- withstanding my sharp rebuke. I saw more of Mr. Clitheroe after that, and he and [always seemed—at least, I fancied so—to have a kind of tacit eympathy between us. I could no longer conceal the secret from myself that I loved him, but scarce dared to hope my love was returned. One day a letter was brought to me In a strange, yet strangely familiar, hand, bearing only our village post-mark. My heart throbbed, my color came and went—the more so as I caught Caroline's eye fixed on me with an expression of amusement. J felt that I was betraying myself, and witha mighty effort I laid the letter face downward upon the table. “Go on, Caroline,” I sald, “don’t stop like th And Schiller was resumed, though it hayes much as I could do to translate him de- cently. The first free moment I had I opened the letter and rea “Dear Miss Morley:—Pardon me if Iscem abrupt, but Ilove you. Tadore you. You are beautiful as an angel; you are lovely asa rose. I only live for you. I cannot live any longer without you. I love you as my own life. Give me hope; say *Yes'—that you feel some interest in me—that I “y fly to your feet ani tuere pour out my devo- tion. Dearest Miss Morley, write to me, answer me; tell me you will be my bride. In lengthy sus- pense, yours forever, ARTHUR CLITHEROE.” I dropped the letter into my lap and buried my face into my hands. He loved me—he wanted me to be his! Oh, bliss unspeakable— oh, joy undeserved! Was it a dream? N. there lay the precious letter. Again and again I read it—my first love letter. I was a little disappointed in the letter for all fancied: he would have written more soberly, more thoughtfully. I wished that he had spoken in- stead of writing; It was so formal to have to answer him. His proposal was not as nice as some I had read of. And yet should I quarrel with my bliss, come how it might? Oh, no! It was with a heart filled to overtiowing that I did so at once, for my pupils and I were goingont and I hada chance of post- ing it; moreover, I felt that I could never send it to him by hand. So. without waiting to think, lest I should lose my courage, I wrote my answer. It was not an easy task. “DEAR Mg. Ciivusxoe: I cannot tell you how your letter surprised me. I feel so flattered. so rateful to you for loving me. It seems tncted!- le that you Should ask me to be your wife. I feel n only answer the truth, and that ts that Tlove you, and have lovea you for 2 long time. ‘ours, MakiOn MORLEY.” This did not seem at all the kind of a note to send, so I wrote another and another, until, in desperation, Isealed and directed the first. I did not allow myself to think further till I saw itsare in the post office, and then, for very shame, I would have gone in and asked for it back. I felt I had taken a plunge Into unknown waters. My thoughts were in a state of chaos— Iwas joyful, trembling and excited. I fear my four girls thought me very absent that afternoon. As we went out, Caroline and Amy, the two eldest. begged me to go a differ- eut way from that which I had chosen; but I said I must post a letter. “Let merun with it to the post, said Caroline. Miss Morley,” “It will take ine only a minute ike, and then we can still go by “No, I must post {t myself, dear,” I replied, hugging my letter tight. They pressed me to let them take it, those tiresome girls; and, like a silly little thing, I turned as as @ peony, whereupon Carrie said: ‘ou look so red, Miss Morley! Perhaps it is a love letter. I do beiieve it is,” she said, as I stupidly grew more and more crimson. “You must not be so forward; It is very yul- gar to talk about love letters,” I answered. “Is it vulgar to be in love then, Miss Morley?” she asked. I never knew that.’ Do you hear, Amy? It is vulgar to be In love.” “Well, not exactly vulgar, of course, Carrie ?” aside, and at that moment Mr. Ponsunby came | A few words were exchanged ; then they came | his eyes | e | drawing to a close, and ; hide my wou | than ever. posted; and the rest of the day and night in a sort of trance. My uppermost feeling was wonder asto what would come next. lhad to endure torment suspense all the next day. The post was my trial; I longed to, yet dared not, look at the letters, and al- most felt relieved that there was not one for me. Then every ring at the bell set my heart quivering. At iast, in the afternoon, when I was speaking to Mrs. Thomson in the garden, Mr. Clitheroe went tt inthe road. He only bowed; but she beckoned to him to come In. He did so, and I grew red and pale, and the hand Beheld out to him trembled. He looked conscious too—I saw that before I slipped away. Would he tell Mrs. Thomson, and would she send for me? But no summons came, and night closed upon my wonder and excitement. The next day brought my peopenee to an end. It was Wednesday, our half holiday, The girls had gone out with their mother, and I was free for a few hours. I took my book out into the garden, but I could not read. The click of the gate startled me. I leaned forward to see who it was, and beheld Mr. Clitheroe. Oh, how my heart beat, and how I trembled as he ap- proached. “How do you do, Misa Mort | y?" he said, “I ‘ou alone, for I have something to say and to explain.” I stole a glance at lis face. He looked flushed and agitated. He sat down, and there wasa minute of silence which grew almost insupport- able tome. Why did he not speak or take my hand? Oh, I could have sunk at his feet and hid my blushing face. “Miss Morley,” he continued, “I received a letter from you yesterday.” “Yes. yes,” I said hurriedly. “It was a stu- pld letter, I know; but yours surprised me so. I never dared believe you could love me,” I stammered, and hid my glowing face in my hands. “When did you get the letter you answered?” he asked, gently. “The day before yesterday,” I answered; and in my ‘ousness I drew it from my pocket.

I have been in at the death of many a fox, shot many an Innocent bird and beast. as a young man, and have said many cruel words in my time, but I never felt such a barbarian be- fore that day. And yet it was not my fault. I was obliged to do it. Truth and honor de- manded it. Poor little Marion Morley. I had often no- ticed her sad face, and longed to be of use to her, and even tried to make her think I would befriend her if she needed it. I had ofte: preached at her the hard lesson, in whatsoever state she was therewith to be content. But I} had never dreamed of love—I had never tried to win her affection. As I told her, marriage lay | very farin the dim future with me—as far. in | fact, as the living that I hoped would ultimately | fall to my Jot. It never crossed my wildest fancy that she would have taken more thana friendly interest in me; therefore my utter as- tonishment can be imagined when I received her poor little innocent letter promising to be the wife I had not desired. How hard it was to tell her I had never penned the letter she had received! I returned home humbled and grieved— grieved to have wounded her sensitive feelings, grieved that she should have given me her love unsought. I prayed that night that she might forget me. Y felt very guilty; and yet I could | find nothing of which to accuse myself. My chief feeling, however, was indignation against the person, whoever he or she might be, whose wicked jest had caused all this. I had my sus- NM Caroline Thomson was never a favorite ¢; I thought her a forwara, sly girl, pre- cocious and assuming; and I imagined her quite capable of playing such a trick. One day I met Miss Thomson in the village and joined her. Purposely I led. the conversation | around to practical Jokes, “Ido not know anything more cowardly than joke,” Tesaid, “on a person mstances place themto a certain ex- tent in one’s power. A practical joke of any magnitude is insulting, eruel, stupid, and a disgrace to one person only—the perpetrator.” The girl's face got very red, and she tittered nervously. “Have you ever played such a joke?” I went on. Iam pretty sure you have.“and on Miss Morley; have you not?” I demanded sternly. “What do you mean?” she stammered. “Please answer me straightforwardly, Miss Thomson,” I said, ‘‘or 1 must, as your clergy- man, apply to your mother. You will know what I mean if your conscience accuses you. Did you not lately play a practical joke upon ‘Miss Morley?” The girl burst into tears, ‘and gradually told me ail—how she and Amy had written the letter in fun, and never meant any harm; how, when she imagined Miss Morley had answered it, she was too frightened to confess; how ‘she was so very sorry, and so on. “You have done an unmaidenly, cruel ac- tion.” I said, “which, but for Miss Morley’s good sense and ladylike mind, might have caused great mischief. I hope that this will be a lesson to you, and that in the future you will be more considerate for others’ feelings.” 1 now hoped that all trouble arising from this unfortunate letter would be ended; but it grieved me to see how Miss Morley drooped, She seemed almost afraid to look at me, though I strove hard to put her at ease.

But at last, as time went on, 1 could bear it no longer, and deter- mined on a last appeal. As I feared she would not hear me out, I determined to write to her; and, in order that there should be no mistake this time, I gave the note to her uncle. To this day Ido not know how I spent the Interval before I got the answer. At last it came. “Though disappointed in you once T am willing to try you again, and so I grant your request. Come and see me to-morrow morning, that we mnay talk it over. MARION MOuLRY.” It was a most welcome though short and odd note. Icould scarcely see how she had been disappointed in me. But she favorable answer was too delightful to be eavilledat. In themorn- ing I went over to the hall, and Marion received me very calmly. “How do you do, Mr. Clitheroe?” she said. “You have come about the tracts, I presume? They have just arrived; so we can divide them among the districts at once.” “But, Miss Morley,” I_ said, “first tell me in pity that you meant what you said yesterday in your note. You have relented! You love me?” She blushed, and seemed at a loss to know my meaning. ‘That little note gave me great Joy,” I said. “What little note?” she asked. Igave it to her. She got very red and then burst out laughing. “Tam indeed reyenged,” she said. this, but not to you.” it to me?” I cried.

I did so, and then asked : * And now, are you not sufficiently revenged for the first mistake in our correspondence, Marion?” “Quite,” was the reply. We spent the next two hours in delicous con- verse; and now we are spending our lives to- gether, although we did make such a muddle of our love letters. “I wrote —— Researches on Lang Disease.
