L IIotcelL MISS TILT'S NIECE. "I wish very much I could do anything," *aid Ted Murchison. "I will go up to Loudon on purpose, if you like, and call at your house. But don't they write to ycu " They think it better not. They would let use know if thi-re were anythij.g fresh to tell. I Lave to console myself with the proverb, 4 No news is good news.'" Cecile liedding spoke with a ring of sadness in her voice, and for a minute her gray eves looked misty as she turned them away. Directly after sho glanced back at her companion and laughed merrily. "What is the matter?' asked tho y<ung i>:nn, feme what taken by surprise, and looking quickly first on one bide and then the other, with the expectation of finding some cause for her amusement. There was nothing to be seen but the smooth lawn with its neat flower beds, the high hurel hedge, and the 1 rowu gate, half open, as though in readiness for his doparcure. His astonishment only increased the girl's merriment, : o that it was some minutes before she could answer. While they were standing thus in the porch a dopcart v,as driven by, its occupants being the \i!Iago dcctor and his groom. The foimer Icoked hard at the little group in the doorway, half raising his hand to his hat. but lefraiiiiug ou seeing that he was unobserved. " 1 beg your pardon," said Cecile, recovering her gravity; " but von do look so funny. Your coat is covered with green from the woodwork, and you were putting 011 such a sentimental expression." " I wasn't aware that to have a few patches of green on one's clothes made one so irresistibly ludicrous. It would be much more practical aud sensible to off< r to give ino a brushing before I go." IIi3 ill-used air caused Cecile's mouth to curl again as she shook her head. "I dare.-ay it would; but you ought to have learnt by this time not to expect anything practical or sensible from me." "I expected nothing, Miss Redding. Candidly, I never knew what to expect frc m you. When I am inclined to sympathize with your troubles you shut me tip by laughing in my face, and if I venture ou a joke you look as solemn as if I were preacuing you a sermon." 'Your jokes are very, very bad," she saul, naivelv; "I think I shoald prefer tho tcrmcn." " You're always down on me," said Murchison, in a mock despondent tone, " It is fortunate your aunt is more merciful." " Wcn't ycu come in again?'' said Ocile, ignoring this speech. " You must be quite tired of standing." " Is that a hint that you wish me to go ?" " Well, I have a great many things to do," she answered, laughing again. . " What on eartli can you have to do ? A novel to read, I suppose ?" "Perhaps," said Cecile, calmly. ' Then g(.od-bye for the present. I f-hall look in a^ain this afternoon, as I ^ rather want to see Miss Tilt. You think she is sure to be in ?" " Oh, yes ; auntio never goes out twice in one day." They shook hands, the ycung man holding lie is rather longer than politeness required, and thtn the gate swung afur Lim, while Wis^ liedding reentered the house with a heightened color She wenti^to the pretty little diningroom and*sat down to write a letter, which took a loDg time through her stopping every few xuinntes with the end of the pen pressed against her soft under-lip, lost in thought, and the writing forgolt?. n. More than once she smiled and colored consciously, though there was'no one to see or note how well she looked with that Hash in her fair cheek. Cecile was one of those girls whom a AAnA?A Aniti'/i ?rAnl/1 cof /Intrn oa ^_ er?UlO UI1W1V nvum C*?-U uunu vtvviu edly not pretty, though tinder favoring circumstances she often seemed so. Her complexion was very fair, with a bluish, peachliko bloom npon it; her evebrows bv no mean? well marked bnt scanty; bcr month u little too wide and her teeth lar^e and irregular. Her chief beauty was her brown, wavy hair, that had nevv?r been marred by scissors, bnt grew all Aver her head to its natural engtb, tlio shortest part being about her temples, where it curled and waved unassisted by art or curl-papers, gleaming with touches of gold shaded into the darker hue of the rest. Envious friends admired this becoming growth, and endeavored to imitate it, with unvarying ill-success. Even her aunt, Miss Alethea Tilt, had tried her hand at it, but her straight tresses absolutely ref.tsed to be tortured into anything resembling a curl. Before the letter was finished Miss Tilt came in, a? companied by her friend and companion, Miss Pelham?a large iidy, .with very round, protruding eyes, an'rHi good-natured smile. "*Hov/ nicn and cool yon look, Ce. rile,'" said MKs Tilt, sinking into a chair and fanning herself with a Japan"Tse-bftnd-Hcr' en. ' I was so afraid we should meet some one?and my face I know is llnming !' ' Mr. Murchison ha* been here/'sa'd Cccile, adding a few words by way of postscript, and looking absorbed in her writing, ro that she did not see the conscious way in which her aunt dropped iier ores on to tne grotesque ligu.es on the screen. "What did he want?" Miss Pelham inquired, as she rmfasttned the strings cf her bonuot. Cecile c.irefally folded her letter in half, nnd answered, demurely: ' To seo aunt." " Dear me. How very fctrange !" said J'i>s Tilt, blushing. " fie is corning again this afternoon, ns I told l.iia you would most likely be in then " ' Wliatover can lie wish to seo me for? I CMi't imagine." lfer aunt's tone was so odd that at last Cecile raised her eyes. " Poor aunt! She thinks he is in love with her!" was the thought that - - - ? ? -1 l_ JlasV-d into Jior mini, una uer cneen. bee use as rosy us her lips. "How can she, when he is twenty-four and she ti-v-ir.il thirty?" "No.v, if it had hern the doctor," raid Miss Pelham, with a ponderous attempt at looking arch, "I should have said he was corning to ask you a very important <;uestiou." " I'\>r shame !' said Miss Tilt. "'Sophia. how can you ? Poor Mr. Parry ! Wb-.it a shams' to put such ideas into one's head.'' " He certainly is very fond of coming hero," said Oecile, thoughtfully. " And he h about your age, auntie, and a very nice, kind man " " My dear eirl I He is years older than I am. He must be at least thirtyeight." Uer niece did not smile when Miss Till made this ann unceuient, but she had hard .work to io cp her rebellious mouth straight. Thnt afternoon Cecile ' went by herself to call on a Jriend who jfi livvd some two miles away. As she (& was returning she met Murchison. VI' "You should not walk alone, now vtUat the hop-pickers are in the neigh.^Whocd," ho said, severely. " You . ?>tyi(i*t<let me see you home." Ah the made bo opposition ho walked <?& * - - by her side, stealing many aside glanco \ ac ! at her face. j yc " Promise me," he continued, after a yc minute, " that you will not go out I ] alone again nntil they are gone. I sa don't like to think of it. They are an ; awfully rough lot " ' tb " They won't interfere with mo. I eo am not afraid," she said, langhing. gi " But I am. Tray don't think me in- it ! terfering, bat it is not safe for au un- ti' j protected girl in these 1 jnely lanes." Cecile was silent and half embar- sa | rassed for a few minutes, but soon re- m I covering herself changed the subject, ar I hey were both surprised when they ! d< found themselves at the gate ; the time had passed so quickly, owiug to an in- m j teresting conversation. ki " Oh, here we are at homo !" said 1 yc I Cecile, blushing directly alter for the : i | dismayed tone of her words. ! in I " I am sorry," ho answered, extend- j m ing his hand. " It has been a delight- n< ful ^alk to me at least. May it soon be j I repeated 1" He held her small gloved lingers ! st lingeringly, and when her shy look met ; in his, as sho said, "Good-bye, and thank I |-i yon," there was something in his eyes cc ! that made her hastily withdraw and run ! into the house, with her very neck suf- tli fused with color. di She went straight upstairs and had w< removed her hat when her aunt's voice J called her into her bedroom. She found j " Miss Tilt sitting on the side of her bed m with her handkerchief to her eyes. su "What is if, auntie?" and Cecile hastened to her side in some apprehen~ * i e- I AT siou. " UU, not?not-oau news irorn i ? home!" j " Oh, dear, no!" Miss Tilt hurriedly re responded. "Nothing bad has hap- j 8^ pened. I am only a little agitated, j 'l13 Cecile, dear, I am engaged to bo mar j ried." |0T " Oh, aunt, I am very glad, and not j .vo much surprised. I thought it would be i so some time?I guessed it as soon as j I came." i " Did yon, dear ?" ! fie Eer aunt bestowed on her a surprised ' "n glance, and then surveyed herself iu , ?r the mirror which happened to bo op- ^ posite. j 'I like him so much," Cecile went! 1?' on; "ho is so unselfish, and so quiet j ?0 and grave and gentlemanly. Is it to j J be a long engagement ?" i j1 1 "No; on the contrary, Euwaru wishes j "e to be married as soon as possible." "Edward ! I thought?I did not ; ue know his name was Edward?" | an " Ted, then!" said Miss Tilt, with i diffidence. "I can hardly bring myself j to speak of him so familiarly." ; an Cecile started, opened her lips and j ^ ! closed tfiem agaiu wimoui bpeuitiug, i while tho blood rushed to her face and then receded, leaving it unusually pale. | ^ ' "He came directly you had gone. Of j course people may be rather surprised I ^ j at my accepting a man so much younger i aC) I than myself?but after all age is more I , in feelings than in years; and he looks j . older than he is." "Yes," she answered slowly, and | | placing her arm about her aunt's thin ; j tignre, she gave her a loving kiss. | , ' " I hope you will be happy," she | whispered; then moving toward the ^ ! door, she added, " I remember that my j : letter is not posted. I'll just run and su i take it myself." j . She walked down the road with her i j1 1 head in a whirl, and it was some miu- j .. i utes before she coald collect her! 1, thoughts. When they assumed definite j a I shape Cecile knew "that she had been j | very near falling in love with Ted ' rc( , Murchison. So near that just now she L ' I folf. na fhmich sho had lost something ! ? I --O- " I A j out of her life, and as though she would I ., i give a great deal to be at home, j A dangerous and infections disease I having appeared in her family was the | s|j : reason of Cecile's exile, which had now ' vo been of two months' duration. During , | those two months she hud been thrown , ; much into contact with Ted Murchison, ! ! and Mr. Parry the doctor, it being the j UI1 . latter of these to whom her thoughts ' ! had flown when her aunt announced 1 | her engagement. ! "Aunt has a nice income of her own, ; se] and I have none," she could not avoid : thinking, though d spising herself for i the base suspicion. ' But ho has always i . ' sought me out, and oh ! how could he? j 1D* I how dare he?talk to me as he has done, ' sut' and look at. me like that! How! , stupid I have been not to see through ! , 1 him!" fo1 i She walked straight past the post- Pe. office unconsciously, and hurried on j a ; i with the letter in her hand ; but soon ; recollecting herself, she turned sharply I and crossed the road. , . Too preoccupied to notice the sound ' , of wheels behind, this unexpected | I movement of Cecile's very nearly re- | sa, I suited in an accident. She was awak- j ft^ | ened from her reverie by a loud ex- i ^ j clamation, and looked round quick.y i I to seo a borse pulled back on its eEj j haunches, its bead having almost ' touched her shoulder. i frer The next minute some one had jjj leaped down, aud Cecile found herself j^r confronted by the doctor. She kept 1 her face averted slightly, lest it should , betray the mortification she was feel- I ing, and spoke carelessly: ] " I shall have you taken up for j (]e i furious driving, Dr. Parry. Your man j ha. ; was going to run over me, it seems." j jro "It was a narrow escape," ho said, ! we briefly, and waved his hand to the | gu groom to drive on. After a pau.se, he ; 6er continued: "I look upon myself as j jnf your medical man, Miss Redding, since | on I attended you when you first came j rov | down. That is my ouly excuse for re- I ; marking on your appearance. What ; jia] ! is the matter with jou?" j h0; "If anything you ought to tell," said fro I Cecile, laughing. i th( "Perhaps I can il you describe your j tiH feelings," said Parry.

Ljoking at him fully for the first time, she was startled to see that ho was deathly pule. hu "Oh I I am so sorry !" she exclaimed, caj struck with dismay, as she remembered i ]aj his frequent visits to her aunt's house. : atI "It was very thoughtless of mo to tell <J0 you that!" mi " Why ? what do you mean ?''

Don't grieve ; it can't be helped. I ight have known. You are quite ire?vcu never will care for me, lild ?" A decided shake of the head was the ily answer, and he took her hand to ok earnestly into her clear eyes.

Cecile wont home in a very dissatisd frame of mind. For the ensuing ys Sutton Party occupied a far eater portion of her thoughts than urclnson; not even in her sleep could e shake herself free from the intense ak that had seemed to read her very ul when she stood before him.

Here's a letter just girn'me to carry home to her." Type Writing. Any one, writes the New York correspondent of the Rochester Democrat, who reads the papers will notice the frequent advertisements of type writer?, who are now becoming almost a guild. Professional type writers make the business more profitable than any other method of copying, and hence there is, a constant increase in the number of' practitioners. They are in common use in law offices, and have become so popular that they mil in such places be come a substitute for ordinary penmanship. The neatness and legibility of this method prevent mistakes, and this adds vastly to their value. This is specially important in matter which is intended for the printer, in which errors might easily occur when the copy is in writing, especially when the latter is so often illegible. Byron found that the works he sent in MSS. from Italy to London suffered so rruch from the printer's inability to decipher his writiug, that he had them printed in Italy merely for the sake of correctness. A few copies were then struck off and sent to Murray merely as copy (or the London printer. What an enormous saving could have been made in such an instance bad the type writer been in use !

A Boy's Luck. The Norrintown (Pa.) Herald in a recent issue referred among other* to the fol- j lowing cases of .special interest. They are i their own commentary. Mr. Samuel C ' Nyce resides at 3U8 Marshall street, and holds the responsible position of journal clerk in the Pennsylvania Legislature, at Harrisburg. While Mr Nyce and family j were in the country recently, his boy, aged f three years, fell and broke his leg. He recovered, but a very troublesome stiffness setinandhe could scarcely use the leg. ( The injured limb waa rubbed several times j with St Jacobs Oil, and the stiffness was c so much 11 >1 uced that the boy was able to J use his le^ freely. Dr. Knipe said it was s the use of St. Jacobs Oil that cured the j , uilfTnp>? Mr. Nvcp himself used the Great I - German Remedy for toothache with good effec', and also for sprain and pains of f rheumatic nature, and always with Rood 1 effect. Mrs. Nyce also says she thinks the J Oil is a splendid thing, and she always * keeps it on hand. The man who haa never tried the ? companionship of little children, has i carelessly passed by the greatest I pleasure of his life, as one passes a pnre | flower without plucking it or knowing ( its value. { Its Equal is Unknown.

The crab being covered with a hard, impenetrable shell, It Is not easy to molest or make him afraid; therefore he wages war in his watery world unceasingly when once attacked. Although tiny, he cannot lie said to be devoid of understanding, having ten legs topssisthis locomotion; this, however, avails him little, for, when conquered, he never turns his back to his enemy, starting into a bold run, but, like many politicians during election time, slips off sideways. There comes a time i n tho li re of this pugnacious fellow when the years bring him more bone and muscle than he can dispose of with comfort, and he finds himself in a very tight place: his shoes pinch him and he begins to realize the practicability of applying to I):ime Nature for more room or a house in proportion to his increasing size. Nature slowly responds to the call; but in her own good time provides a new home, so that the enterprising little crealure does not wander about homeless, but is provided for suitably, as was tho old.sailor, who dropped his rheumatism and crabbedness when he applied the Great German Remedy, St. J a cons On..

St. Jacobs Oil. to-day has rendered the lives and homes of myriads of sufferers brighter than ever the electric light can. which people pause to admire along the way. Still more happily served than the old sailor was an invalid, who wrote thus concerning his case: "CROOKED HAERTEL." Accept a thousand thanks for that "golden ? remedy." I suffered for many years with rheumatic pain in my limbs. My legs were drawn together, and people called me " Crooked Haertel."
