Dr. Ludington was a physician of consid erable renown, having already accumulated a princely fortune, and the possessor of a beautiful mansion on Lexington Avenue.— He withheld no pleasure that wealth could procure for his wife and daughter. An af fectionate father, yet he did not allow his indulgence to become the came of his dang ler's ruin in after years. Kate developed the !>cautiful attributes of her nature, in the sunshine of her happy home. The hot sultry dajs of summer were be coming oppressive in the city, and Dr. Lu- dingtou concluded to give his family an agreable surprise, a change from the usual fashionable summer resort.

A young man of ability, he gat e promise of a useful future. Kate's time was now occupied in gallant ing the gentlemen through the lovely walks and romantic forest retreats. As soon as Charlie could find a chance to speak to Kate alone, he asked her to ex plain the origin of that scolloped paper with a red border. After repeated promises never to divulge she’s let hint into the secret of Philander devotion and declaration. Peal after peal of laughter followed, un til Charlie complained of a pain in the side. This was too good for Charlie to keep, and notwitheundiug Ins numerous promises, he let Mr. Brouhan into the secret. Charlie's fun did not let it rest here.
