Was It ChanceBY ANABEL O. ANDKKW8. Gub Hill was tho only living child of Abijfth' 11 ill, a wealthy lumber merehat in tho town of Hudson. Ilia raothor was doad, and a maiden aunt kept house for his fathor. Ilia profession was that oLfl lawyer", bht he had inherited hie Hn?*lmrVffW>>}*?Wy; bo it wasn't necessary for him to practice to obtain his daily broad.? Kight lioro all his temptations commenced. "For Satan finds somo mis* chief for idlo hands to do;" that was tj ne, a good many years ago, and it lfasn't lost its truth yot. I know I always skip descriptions of pooplo's personal appearance, so I will simply D?? i.~ ?~n i ofnj 41 u nua mil, UI1U 11 OIOIKI 0. i'Cl' lj^pa you think ho looked insipid; woll, ho didn't if ho'd parted his hair ih tho middle, nnd waxed his mous* tacho. Tho old established citizons of II said ho was "an idle, extravagant young dog, with good enough in him somewhere," which good they wero afraid would dio for tho want of propor cultivation. Nor was <I.U oil. it 1 " 1 1 vino mi, it wiia i uiii'jj tin mat no nun been seen intoxicated tlio night of Mib, Kid lor *6 party. Most of the young men know ho "drank a little, you know, but of course not to ex cess." *A n\an may tako arsenic and not die from its effcct;" but a man who docs not tako it certainly will not die from ita ollbcts. I havo told you of his bad habits; so to bo just ] must tell you some ot bis good onoa. lie was truthful, generous to a fault, always even torn j)ered, and a young man of nioro than ordinary abilities; but unless some fiftvinor Pnwni' it m-oo e ?v >??.o Evident to many that bo would go to ruin. Luolla Campbell was tho youngest daughter of fivo childron. !Shc was a lovely girl, btrictly epoaking bIio was not beautiful, if or largo, bazei eyes, and almost perfect form, wore Iter only claim to beautv. and v?t I f - r elio was culled "The Boauly of II." It was her pure sou), her loving and uieiTy disposition, which made hor ; bo, rather than beauty of form or , feature. Gus and Lu had been walking in the woods. IIo was saying: "So it is to morrow night, you young ladies mako your attack upon Pur hearts, and?r.ocket book? ? "Yes," 6ho roplied, lunirliing. "Bo teuio you aro well supplied with t)otli, you will need all you can muster-". 1 "Wliftt are you to do?" ho asked. , "O, I'm to bo 4poet mispress'? thcro will bo a largo mail for you, irj ? VJ uo.

Thoy chatted merrily the remaiiuK I -.1 1 r. vi ni?j ??mv ijutuu, wueru vius ion Lu, to write letters for tho postoffico, grave and gay, merry ami merciless. She had written a number when she thought ot (Jus, and how much lie needed an earnest appeal from some ! ono to relorm. The idea occurred to her, "Why not 1? 1 might write a letter, and give it to him from the poatoftlco to morrow night." She took her pen and wrote him a long letter, showing him juat whore lie stood, tlio danger lie was in from intemperance, and also from doing nothing. She advised him to leave I 11 r .. _ .: - I - - >1 ji iui u iimuj us no couiu more I effectually break oil' from old assccis < ates, and begin lilo anew.

Poor Lu, 6ho would hardly have looked bo serene in tho tableau, if 6ho had known her letter was in 'Qua Hill's pocket, instead of her own. She bad handed it to Cad with tho lost, and Cad had given it immediately to Gus. "Was it chance or somoming more?"
