BY EMMA A. OPPER. Ethel Hapgood was pacing the long conservatory paths, gazing idly through he steamy windows. An imaginative observer might have classed Ethel as a hot-house flower. 8ho was slendor,, delicately formed; sho had thick yellow' hair cluv ? * , ?>? } uiuc eyes nnri a charming/ face, whose chief color was tho deep red) of her lips. | But Ethel bore great resemblance to' her father's father?a sturdy man, who,', working with his own hands, had laid! the foundations of the present, large' family possessions?a man of energy, J originality, tine qualities. ? Sometimes Ethel, with all her delicate beauty, looked oddly like him. She did 1 now. ' What would poor mamma thiok?" i she murmured, guiltily. "She has done everything for roe. Why atn I dissatis- t tied? What ails met" And then she went on recklessly to i answer the question. "I'm worn out?that is all. I've i danced all winter, and gone to concerts t and the opera and the theatre, and bowled with two clubs, and? What j is the use in going over it? I've done I everything ! I've been so popular that mamma has been perfectly happy. I've had so mnny favors at every German . that I got to be a proverb. And Allen Lifford proposed, and mamma was 5 grieved that I didn't take him. And. ' Mr. Dinsmore?I shouldn't dare tell mamma how I discouraged him?him and his money. She'd be horrified.

I'd take the dogs r and tramp in the woods and hills all day. But it's a 'resort,' and the Stanley's are here, and the Kameses, and mamma is planning little teas aud dances in this great country place we've hired, and there's a picnic next week, and a dance at the finest hotel to-night, and mamma, and I must go. And I shan't get a minute's rest before next season sets in. And I shall forget all these funny notions, and do as all the olhcr girls arc doing without n qualm?dance some more and I'.irt some more, and marry the best catch thatolTcrs. Mr. Dinsmore, perhaps." K'.hc! laughed, ouaielicd a white pmk, tossed her pretty head, and strolled toward the door, looking rather less like her grandfather. She was not the girl the world took her to be?but nobody would ever know she was not. What could she do? Nothing! and hopeless heart-rebellion merely made her uncomfortable. Good-bye to it! She almost stepped on the toes of somebody haetily entering the conserva- , torv, as she would have parsed out. A man, and a young man. A perfect rtraniier. ( "I hog your pardon!" he said, in breezy, bright, tones; 4'but I found the proper entrance locked, and I came around here. The florist?can you tell me where to find him?" "Somewhere in the shrubbery," Ethel almost gaspert. "Thank you! I'll hunt him up. I want some Mowers, you know," said the young man, briskly. Ah! Ethel was quick of perception. She knew the rear door of the conservatory. It opened on the road, foi the convenience of the gnrdener and florist, whose cottage was just across from it. "Absurd arrangement," Ethel's mother had observed, driving past. "You might take it for a public hot-house." And the interloper?the tall, brondehouldercd, bright-faced, agreeable interloper?had taken it for precisely that. .Ethel looked down, looked up, smiled ininiiy, men iookou ncmurciy inscrutable. Her girl friends had always declared that she dared, if she chore, do just anything "I guess 1 can get then for jou,M 9he raid. "Oh!" lie looked pleasantly sur. prised. "You're his daughter?" Ethel nodded vaguely. "Well, I'll he awfully obliged to you. Roses and pinks, please, and valley lilicc anything. As >>ig and nice a bunch as you can fix." Assuredly her mischievous plot had its drawbacks. To be taken for the daughter of a country florist! to he ordered about like any serving-inaid! She, Ethel Hupgood! Yet, why was it so far from being disagreeable? Was it that this man was so o Idly to her taste, with his hardy young strength, his keen ga/.e, his careless, rough country suit?so like a fleah-aod-blood embodiment of ber lata wistful imagining*!

"We're here for the summer, my mother and I. We're rented the Klagg place. You know itV ' Ob, yea, Ethel knew the Fiagg place) Sbo did sot; but she was la the spirit of it now, and enjoying it. She felt equal to any needed mendacity.' "Right up among the hills," she obterred?every place in Weet Bed ford j being right up among the hills. "Yea. Do you know anything about; t* ^shooting?" asked the young man, unxiously. "Ia there any?" j "Any amount," Ethel rejoined, with enthusiasm. "Whew, but I'm glad!" he said boyishly. "What's the country without shooting, and fishing, and boating, and all the rest? But then I'm an enthusiast, a crank, to be candid. I'm addicted to outdoor doings as no fellow ever was." "It's a healthv taste." Ethel re. marked.

"So it is," he agreed, "aud productive of healthy conditions. I can outwalk anybody but professionals, I reckon." Ho laughed. "I wish I could," Ethel said, sincerely. "It's all in getting used to it, you know," ho rejoined. "A little every day. Can you row?" "I never learned." Bhe had wanted to but her mother had opposed it. "Oh, but you ought! I contracted that fever at cjllcgc; but it has served me well. I had a great time down on the river here yesterday. I caught four eels, four old shoes and a mud-turtle." They laughed jovially. "But I discovered?I vow it?a totally new kind of water-weed." "You and Thoreau should have traveled together." tZA rAJtrl him) T hftva \ll nm he not a genius?"

There was a blue lacing in his tlannel ihirt; his hands were large, strong, 1 anned. Ethel noticed everything with a strange award tremor. It was as though her lero had fallen from the skies. "Your flowers?" she murmered. "I'd forgotten them!" he vowed, augbing. They're for a young lady, so uit your own taste, and she'll be suited, irobably." "Ob!" Ethel said, faintly. "Yes: a young lady I've never seen, ithcr. But her brother was a classmate if mine at college. He's away, but I've ouud since I've been here that his fainly is sum neriug here.

That last statement, that ho worked, was the last ihred of proof she had required to confirm her growing certainty that he was ?oh, he was?a man?an ideal man! And she wished he had not completed that proof; for were not these flowers to go to-day to his schoolmate's sister? Was he not going to call on her to-mor row i "I've done my best," she said, her smile not very steady. "I hope she'll like it." "I'm more than satisfied," he declared, in his straightforward way.

The vicinity of the Hyeres archipelago, with their seacliffs and shell-banas, and the prospect toward the cloud castles of the Maritime Alps attract hundreds of visitors, but the chief charm of the locality consists in tho extensive flower-plantations that surround the old burgh with a zone of beauty aud fragnance.
