Old rrixharn has doubted his custom e ince she came there.' 'And the best of it all,' added Fitzalan, with a laugh, -is that ie is quite unconscious of her )wn attractions-a little country assie, who thinks only of her own D )usiness, and never dreams that c the herself is the sweetest flow r of all the assortment.' 'Let's go in and buy a Marechal iel bud and two or three sweet In erbena leaves,' said Calverly. 'I ;hou!d like to see this modern - Flora of yours.' Dorothy Penfield stood behind the counter of the florist's store, sorting .over a pile of fragrant r lossoms which lay on a tray of d amp, green moss. Trails of' smilax wove their green garlands *h pto the ceiling ; heaps of gold nd rose-petaled buds lay in thea h idow ; tufts of purple heliotrope erfumed the air, and white car-h ations lay like hillocks of snow gisthe panes of the show-c rindow, while spikes of perfumed ~yacinths and capejesa:miuelung d ~beir subtle scents upon the ir.i At d Dolly herself, with her ound, dimpled face, pink cheeks, t nd soft, brown eyes, exactly thet hade of the rippled hair, which as brushed simply back from he broad, iow brow, was a fitting ccessory to the scene. She looked up as the two gen tlemen entered, and a soft, crimn son shadow overspread ber face. for a seconid. b '11ave you (got One of my fav orite button-bole baquets made up, Miss .Penfield ?' Fitzalan asked, ithb a careless bow and smile. 'I know,' said D olly, softly. 'A osebud and a sprig of heath, and wo or three myrtle l eaves;' hat is what you like. No; I v ave none made up, just at pre et; but I can tie one up in bout half a minute, 31r. Fitz s dan.' 'One for me', too, if you please,' said Calverly, toucinii!g hishat. 'Jutst thme same ? Dolly lifted her long- eyelashes, which were like fringes~ of brown, silk, and gave~ him a shy glance. 'A little diff'erenmt, please. won sut your own tasm.e, M1iss Pen. field.' 'I like the double blue violets,' C said Dolly, gently, 'with geranium leaves.' 'Then they shall be my favo rite flowers also ' said Calvorly, allantly. Theogen tlemue2 had hzardiy taken hir leave, when old Frixham, the florist, bustled in, with round, red face, shining bald head, and an air of uusiness all over' him. -lsn't it time you had the the aer bouquets ready ?' said he, looking critically around, and moving a glass of freshly cut cal las out, of the level sunset beams which at that moment fell like a sheen of golden la':es, athwart the deep bow window. I shall have thcm ready di. rectly,' said Dojlly, starting from1 her reverie, 'the flowers are all sorted out.' I 'e have moo many earnations hand,' said the florist fretfuly nd those gaudy cape bells are much dead loss. Let the man om the green houses know, please, lere's a demand for half open sebuds and forced lilies-of-the lley..' 'Yes,' said Dolly, dreamily, 'I iii tell him-when he comes.' The closed country wagon, with s freight of fragrant leaves and lieiously scented flowers, came riy in- the morning, long before c fat florist was out of bed, and hile the silence almost of an en <antcd land lay upon Upper roadway. But Dolly Pen:field was there csbening up the stock of the V before with wet moss and cool ater, and clipping the stems of e rosebuds. 'Ne more carnations, John,' she id b:-iskly, 'nor amaryllis flow s, and we want plenty of cam hias and geraniums, and those 'ight flowers.' 'I thought, perhaps,' said bon t John Deadwood, who meas -ed six feet in his stockings, and Ld the. face of an amiable giant, on might want to go back with e to-day, Dolly. Your aunt has me on from Kansas, and there is )ing to be a dance out in the oid rrn, with plenty of candles and rergreen boughs. And mother ,id she would be proud to wel >mc you to the old farm house, olIly. Your oleander tree is kept .refully at the south window, ld ' 'Dear me.!' carelessly interrupt I Dolly ; 'why don't they put it the greenhouse ?' 'Because, Dolly,' said the young .an, reddening, 'it reminds us of u. And the meadow lark in ie cage sings beautifully; and old :d brindle has a spotted calf.' 'Has she ?' questioned Dolly in ifferently. John Deadwood looked hard at er. 'Dolly,' said be, 'you don't care bout the old home any longer!' 'Yes, I do,' said Dolly, rousing rself, 'but-' She pausced suddenly, the rosy lor rushed in a carmine tide to er cheek, an involuntary smile iping the~corners of her fresh ps as she glanced through the ilax trails in the window. John Deadwood, following mn 2e direction of her eyes. glanced, o, just inl time to see a tall gen man lift his hat and bow as he ent jauntily past. 'Is thbat it,' said John, bitterly. 'is w 5.t ?' petulantly retorted olly. :l'm sure I don't know 'by we are standing here wait g for and I with twenty-eight ouquets to make up by 2 o'clock. 'at's all, John, 1 think. Don't rget the lilies of the valley.' 'But you haven't answered me, koly.' 'Answered you whbat?' 'About the : dance in the old arn, and coming back witb me rhen the wagon returns at 5. 'clock.' 'It is quite out of the question,' aid Dolly, listlessly. 'Doly!' 'Well.' -You promised me years ago-' 'Nonsense,' said Dolly, flinging e azaleas and pinks around in agrant confusion. 'I was only a hild then.' 'But you've no right to go back n your word, Dolly, child or no bild.' 'I never promised, John.' 'But you let me believe that one ay you would be my wife. And 'e lived on the thought of it, )olly, ever since. And if this ity situation of yours should reak up my life's hope-' 'Don't hope anything about me, obo !' brusquely interrupted the iirl. 'Here comes a customer. ~leas, John, don't stand there y longer looking like a ghost !' And honest, beart-broken Jobn uned and went with heavy eat out to where the wvagon tood and old Roan was waiting vit down-drooping head and alf-closed eves. 'It does seem to mec,' be mnut ered between his teeth, 'ti:at hero is nothing left to live for my longer.' lDolly looked half remorsefully 'I've almost a mind to call him back,' said she to herself as she picked out a bunch of white vio lots for the newcomer. I do like John Deadwood ; but I think be has no business to consider him =elf engaged to me, just because of that boy-and-giri nonsense. One's ideas change as one gets on in life.' And Dolly's cheek was like the reflection of the pink azaleas as he thought of Air,. Fitzalan and the turquoise ring that he had iven her as a troth plight. And Mr. Frixham came in pre. entiy. 'I've a note from the Sedge-. wicks, on Fifth Avenue,' said e hurriedly. They always >rder their flowers from Servoss, but Servoss has disappointed shem. They want the house dec. )rated for a party to-night-there's t ot a minute to lose. I've tele- j raphed to Bolton's for one hun- t ired yards of smilax and running tern and one hundred poinsettas; mnd I think we can manage the rest ourselves. You had better go it once, Miss Penfield, and plan the decorations-you've a pretty taste of your own-and I'll send up the flowers with Hodges to belp you.' And Dolly went, her mind still on the turquoise ring, with a band of virgin gold and its radiant blue stone. The Sedgewick mansion was a brown stone palace, with plate glass casements, and a vestibule paved with black and orange mar-. ble. Mrs. Sedgewick, a stately lady, in a Watteau wrapper and blonde cap, received Dolly in the great drawing room. 'Oh !' said she, lifting her eye glasses, 'you're from the florist's, are you? Well, I know nothing about these things-I only want the rooms to look elegant. Tell your husband to spare no ex-j pense.' 'Mr. Frisham is not my hus band,' said Dolly. 'Your father, thben.' 'But he isn't my father,' insisted Dolly, half laughing. 'He's no re lation at all. I will tell him, however.' 'Exactly,' said Mrs. Sedgewick. 'I particularly desire plenty of white roses, as 1 am told they are customary at this sort of affair. It's an engagement party.' 'Indeed !' said Dolly, trying to look interested. 'Between -ny daughter Clara and Mr. Alfred Fit.zalan,' said Mrs. Sedgewick, with conscious complacency. Dolly said nothing, but the room, with its fluted cornices and lofty ceilings, seemed to swim arund her like the waves of the sea. And as she went out, with Mrs. Sedgewick still chatting about white rose buds and bego nia-leaves, she passed the half open door of a room, all hung with blue velvet, where a yellow tressed beauty sat smiling on a low divan, with Fitzalan bending tenderly above her. 'He has only been amusing him. self with me,' said Dolly to her self. There was a sharp ache at her eart; but after all, it was only the sting of wounded pride. Tank heaven-oh, thank heaven, it was nothing worse than that ! Honest John Deadwood was drivmng old Roan steadily and sol emnly along past the patch of woods, where the velvet-mnossed bowlders lay like dormant beasts of prey in the spring twilight when a gray shadow glided out of the other shadows and stood at his side. John !' she whispered. 'Dolly ! it's never you ?' 'Yes, John,' said thbe girl, gen tly buL steadily. -I'm going back bomne with you.' 'God bless you, Dolly,' said the young man, fervently. -For good and all, John, if you'll take me,' said Dolly, slowly. 'I've had quite enough of city life ; and I'll help you with the green houses, and I'll try and be a good little housekeeper at home. Shall I John ?' John put his arm around her nd hu<gged her up to his side. 'Darlinr !' said he, huskily, -it's most too) good news to be true; but, if my word is worth any thing, you shall never iegret t'our decision of this day.' So the pretty fibver girl van ished out of the bower of smilax ind rosebuds. The Sedgewick ransioi Wasn't uecorated at all, ind Mr. Frixham had Lst his new ,ustonier. And the turquoise ring came back to Mr. Fitzalav n a blank envelope. sullan1hIeous. EOPE FOR THE DRUNKA RD. If inebriety is curable, as the 3oston Travder asserts that it is, y- the following method, then s there hope fui the victim of ,his base passion-drink. That ournal makes the following asser ion: "An intemperate person :an easily supply himself with the -emedies used at all the inebriate tsylums, and be his own physi ;ian. at his own home, without .e necessary expense and public ty of visiting the Washingtonian Liome or any other public institu. ion. is laboratory need only ontain a small quantity of cay -nne pepper, a pt,t of concentra ted extract of be;ef, and a few rains of bromide of pottassium. When the desire for alcoholic .irink recurs, make a tea from the cay6nne pepper as strong as can be taken with any degree of com fort; sweeten it with milk and sugar and drink. This tea will supply the place that a glass of liquor would fill and leave no in jurious effect behind. Repeated iaily as often as the appetite re turns, it will be but a few days before the sufferer will have be come disgusted with the taste of the pepper, and with the appear ance of this disgust disappears the love of liquor. "The fact is proved every day. The extract of beef is to be made into beef tea, according to the di rection on the pot, in such quan ities as may be needed for the time being, and furnishes a cheap, easily digested, and healthy nu triment-it being made to stay on the stomach when heavier articles of food would be rejected. The bromide of potassium is to be used carefully, and only i.n case of ex treme nervousness,.the dose being from fifteen to twenty grains, dis solvedt in water. This is a public exhibit of the method of treatment adopted at the inebriate asylums. In addition thereto the drinking man should surround himself with influences whitin tend to make him forget the degradin~g asso ciations of the bar-room and lift him upward. iIe should enideavor, so far as his business avocations will permit, to sleep, bathe, and eat regularly, and obey the laws of health. By the adoption ol this course energetically and sin. cerely, no man who has the will to reform can fail to do so. Hun dreds and thousands can attest the truth of these statementS A WVONDERFUL BLIND MAN.-A very remarkable blind man.named John Metcalf, a native of Man chester, was living at the begin: ning of this century ; and, strang to say, his occupation was uc other than that of a guide, hi living being gained by his con ducting strangers through in tri cate routes during the night 01 when the roads were coveret with snow. Stranger still, how ever, was the calling whieb bh subsequently followed, and thi: we are told was that of a 'projec tor and surveyor of high ways it difficult and mountainous parts. With the aid solely of' a stat which he carried, hb was often tc be seen traversing roads, mjount ing hills, and exploring valleys It was under thle d]ircCtion of Met calf that many of the roads ovej the Peak, in Derbyshire, were al tered; and he also designed a.c su:erintended the construcuion o a new road in the same neigh borhood, formed with a view t< o)en a communication with th< great London road without th< necssi ty cf passing over tb< munns.t A iJ M s.D ATH!It W IS IVyFE Peck tells the following in the n Milwaukee Sun : d -There is a man up in the b seventh ward that hasn't spoken , to his wife for over a week. He m is so miad that he will not go ho:ne to his meals, and the other ti day his wife went to the office to et get six dollars. to p:y for s:mese shoes, and he told a clerk to pay her ol and let her go. He grates his teeth when he goes home of A nights, and comes out of the house o1 every ImornIng sweari:-g. She st Cane a joke on him, tlt was all b< He had been telling her that he had the heart disease, and that he V should go off suddenly some time p! in the night. She had got sick of - such talk after hearing it thirteen St years, when she knew he was as y healhy as a yearling. Why, he didn't even know where his heart tI was, and couldO't point out the location of any particular portion tl of his internal improvements. But h he kept talking about death every fc little while, and she said she would break up that game as soon as she V could think of any way to do so. a A spell ago she bought one of these India rubber water bags for g keeping hot water at the feet in- t! stead of using bottles. It would s! hold about three quarts, and her -o husband didn't know anything b about it. One night after she had the water bag to her feet a couple of a hours, until they wtre about as cold as a pieee of zine. and her husband was snoring away by note, she d thought what a good joke it would I be to put it on his stomach and b wake him up. She burst right r out laughing, at midnight, think- n ing of it. So she took up the rubber bag of hot water and placed a it on his stomach. The bag was about as big as a cow's liver an ' ' as warm as a shingle on a boy. g It had not been on his stomach l more than two minutes when he slowly opened his eyes. She stuffed the upper works of her gown into her mouth to keep from laughing. He raised up his bead 1: and said :'Harriet, my end has come.' 'Whieb end, Josiah ?' said I she, as she rolled over, 'your head a or your feet?' and then she put a t pillow in her mouth, and reached d over and unscrewed the nozzle p: that holds the water in the n bag. '1. am dying, Egypt, dy- a ing.' said he, 'My heart is en. a~ larged three times its natural size,. Ii Oh, I am bleeding to death.' She o had opened the nozzle, and three r quarts of hot water was pouriug ~ over him, satu rating him from o head to heelis. She haLd not meant v to let out more than ha!f a pint ofr water on him, but when it got to e flowing sbe could not stop it, so so she got out of bed and told himt to save himself. He attempted c to stop the flow of blood, arnd j struck a light and asked her if his life preserver had not sprung a leak, and then he looked at the rubber bag and went out and run I imself through a clothes wri-n ger, and he s!ept on the lounge the rest of the night, and he says is wife is the meanest woman that ever drawed the breath of life. She tells her friends that Josiah has been miraculously cured of the heart disease.' Professor Beneke, of Marburg. Germany, after measuring 970 hu man hearts, says that the growth1 of that organ is greatest in the frst and second years of life. At the end of the second year it isI doubled in size, arnd during the next five years it is agamn dos bied. Then the growth is much slower. thougth from the fifteenth to the twientieth year its size increases twothirds. A very slight growth is then observed up to fifty, when 1 it gradually diminishes. Except in childhood, men's hearts are de cidedly larger than hose of wo Two men at Peoria, Ill., tied their horses' tails together and started them in opposite directions to settle a bet as to the strength of the brutes. But a quarrel arose before the tirial took place, and thne angry owners agrreed to pull each other-'s noses instead. Both lost, fbor they were fined 810 I eah in a police court. ~STEALING( ANOTHER' (>M,DIOT. -Any one who has stoped over ght at a large hiote has been sturbed -n the small Lcurs " persons l walking in the hal s as anVily and careessly as if'it were id-day- G{ests who are up late em to tiess of the quiet of iose wrappeid i slumser.
