Mollie need have waned no ty apathy on her cousin. Picnics are semeu mea failures: air-castta never. II. Meantime Hollis, wita bine ribbom fluttering in the* preen,-waa deebing along to the p?cale, chattering the aeriest nonsense to the admiring Dick, little dreaming that this same picnic was to be one of the turning points of br? life, a day to be looked back upon wl.b tern, and panga of that same heartache to which she had so recklessly thrown down the gauntlet of defiance, So lightly go we to meet the fates. To say that Dick wat in "love with Hollie," would but feebly express bis condition. Ho regarded ber as bis own private property. They belonged to each other. It waa as natural that they should be together as that Her flowers and pine trees should grow in the same soil. By just ac mach ss he was big, and strong, and rather homely and awkward withal, did he admire Hollie's daintiness, and beauty, and careless grace. 8be supplied what wes deficient in ids own nature evidently his other Ralf. He looked apon her with adoration, as being al* most "Toogood For human nature's dally food." Bot Molllo was young. There waa no hurry. She was evidently fond of bim, and this unconscious half-lover-like, half-fiiendSy confidence between them was too pleasant to be nuked on the least uncertain ty. Ah, Dick, why did no good genius whisper to yon, "Gather ye rosebuds while you may I" BUL unfortunately, good genii ?ve not so officions now-a-dnye as of old. So Dick foolishly squandered bia summer and sunshine, with no thoughts of mak ing hay, as the proverb advises. The latter part of the way to Warn ponoose pond waa through a grass-grown wood road, so narrow that the trees met over lt, and sumac and blackberry bushes brushed against the carriage, peering in as if curions to see these oddities called haman beings, who bad thus rudely in taded their solitude. Each side opened tong, cool, green vistas into the beart of the forest. Once they stopped to listen to the far-off, plaintive song of a wood thrush, without a pang of remembrance for the time when be and lore were f'onng, and Hollie was beside him, and t was sommer. Mollio picked green leaves and trimmed Dick's hat. Dick leaned lazily back in the carriage, watching Mollie. Tbe reins hung loosely in hie hand. He felt in no special hurry to reach the picnic ground. Dandy, taking advantage of his master's mood, made an object of himself by trot ting along witbgrent bunches of leaves banging out of bis mouth, leaves snatched each side from the too inquisitivo bushes. Presently they caught glimpse of water through the trees on the left. . Then came a tarn in the road, an abrupt pitch, and they were on the banks of Warn pa boose pond, with two or three picnicera advancing oat of tho woods to meet them. "I wonder who that is with Kitty Cook," ?aid Hollie. "Isn't be hand some ?" "Ye-es." said Dick, with an instinctive feeling or dislike for the too good-looking stranger, who was gating at Hollie with obvious admiration. Kitty performed tho ceremony of introduction. "My cou sin, Hr. Dawless, Hiss Brown. Hr. Be man, Hr. Dawless," and Mr. Dawless having bowed profoundly to Hiss Brown, carelessly to Hr. .Beman, proceeded to appropriate the y ?ung lady and walk off with her, leaving Dick to follow with Kitty Cook, as best be might. He im proved the opportunity to ascertain that thia Mr. Dawlese was a member of th? junior class at Harvard, come to spend emoh part of his sommer vacation as he foundagrct-ublo with his Uncle Cook In OragnviTle. 1 "He has studied so hard." explained Kitty, "thal ho has injured bis health, so bo thought instead of going home to the oily, ho would try our courcy air, and nabing, ?te.

What a world this would be, by-the-oye, if we all said exactly wbat .srethbsghtf If Wamnanoosepend had only been Lake Anything in Switzerland,plenty of Americans, would have been miserable until they could have crossed the sea to yiait it, and writo homo super-adiectived letters to all th? newspapers about ita exquisite scenery. As it was, lt reposed tho year round in primitive loneliness, .ate when an occasional picnic party dame, as now, to wake, with laugh aaa Bongi the co-linns of its woodland solitude. fy lay at the foot of a broken, rooky range of mountains whoso pine-crested Crags were vividly imaged tn Its clear Waters.

Then there was a tradition o? beare and rettie Cnakes, jost remote enough to give the ?est of possiblo adventures to raobliuga In it? vicinity. In short, it was roman tic, beautiful, cool ; the place ef places to spend a summer's day. Bat, aa far aa Dick was concerned it might as well have been the desert of Sahara. W??n the whole company went lo tee the cave of old Warn pancoso, it waa Dawless who gallantly helped Hol lie over the fallen craw and ap the rocka. Dawless who quieted her alarms at sup* poel?lious bears, Dawlosa'a button-holo that waa adorned with a little bouquet cf harebells and hemlock twigs, picked by Hollie's banda* When, seated around their tablecloth spread on the ground, a deMe?cy-dn pintos distr?tered, ?o ^Hft*^?MW,,^*d onevery cos?-, ly, Yonge* so well acquainted at plc nica ; and then Dawless was so jolly, sang roch roaring college songs, told such comic Btories, every one was delighted with him.

Aa for Dick, who bad only a heart '.'tender and true" to oppose to nfs all* conquering ha?c'a numerous fascinations, ho grew glummer and glummer. When tho sun shot its sunset rays dow? through the western trees, and the recesses of the i damp and fragrant, Moil?o carno to Hick 1 and ?id, "Shi?l ye? caro, Dick, if I go i home in the big wagon T It's so much !

Y?fr not .anta, b*A his Accordingly, bc sc J. discovered that, by tsingular coincidence, the beat ti oat bing lu Craggville nos on 'Squire Brown's farm. Good-hearted, hospitable 'Squire Brown, who liked the yo? "a, iel? .low and his college stories, whenever hs escoustered him, insisted on brio-ring bim homo to tea or dies??, AS the cate might be. Bo Dick often had the j" las ure of seeing Dawles* domiciled on Brown'a piazza of a summer evening with a perfectly at-home air, peculiarly aggravating. Other people also noticed hit frequent presence there. Craggville was one of those small, quiet places, where anvthing in the way of news it a boon? to be made tho most of. Flirtation waa as yet one of the undiscovered arts there. Wnen a young man in Craggville began "paying attentions" to a yoting Woman it meant business. Hia first Sunday evening visit waa the beginning of the end-a sure symptom of matrimony. So it happened quito naturally that Hrs. Smith should tell Mrs. Jones that Orestus Cook's nephew wss paying his attentions to Mollie Brown, sod she pre sumed it would be m engsgoment. Mrs. Jones told Mrs. Robinson. Boxy Beman taking tea with Mrs. Robinson next day, that lady imparted the great intelligence to ber, only by thia time it bad become a fact. Boxy went borne, bursting with the tidings, to Dick. When Dick carne in v i th tho milk pails, Boxy met him in thc kitchen with, "Richard, what do you 6upposo I heard tbiu afternoon T" "I don't know," uah! Dick with a strong pppearance of not caring aa well. Not that he was ono of tlr so men habitually cross and snappish at home, to his mother sud sisters. But of late the lines had fallen for bim io bard, dreary places. Hia heart was sore and heavy within him, and he felt weary and disgusted with everything, with fife itself. Boxy proceeded with all the enjoyment natu ral to the firat imparting seen an item of newt. "Mrs. Robinson says that Mrs. Jones says that Mrs. Smith told her that Mollie Brown is engaged to that Mr. Dawless. 1'vo been expecting it. You know he is there half nie limo. What do you think about it, Richard ?" The twilight was favorable to Dick. Possibly that was the rer .on one of his milk nails bit the pantry ..oor, deluging the kitcden floor. "How careless you are, Richard," said Roxy, ruefully contemplating the snowy, froth-crested stream, meandering aero? ber clean floor. "Now I shall bars tc change my dress and mop up. I do wist you would be a HtMe more careful." If Dick bad been dying, Boxy woulc not have scolded him, uor would ohi now, when the beat psrt of him, his hear and hope and coursga were dying In him had she only known. But Dick mado ni sign. He went out to the barn, har notsed Dandy, and drove away lo th darkness, ho cared not where, so he coull be alone, and keep his troubles to biro self. One morning, not long after, Molli? with a sunbonnet tipped down over he nose, and a tin pan in her hand, was gc ing ont to pick the Lima beans for dlr ner. She was bumming "There's mus! in the air," thinking what a pleaser morning thia was, anti what a fine plac this earth was generally, when, st it door, abe met bor father tomine Ss, loo! lng much humbled at sometbing.

Mollie felt aa if she "takon cold" already, a cold whose i dering chill had benumbed forever whole warmth and hope of her life. ' till long after it was manifestly absurd jto expect Dick, did she go reluctantly ?p stairs, to toss and turn lor the first time not $6 last, alas-in fevered wakefulness through tho watches c* the night-to en tertain grim spectres of doubt arid sorrow, ba place of the airy visions wet to glori fy ncr imaginings. Five years have passed. Mrs. Brown? ing makes her Aurora Leigh say : i Ten layers of birthdays on a woman's head Must somewhat fossil lie her girlish mirth. And|tnafce her wlsor; and thst, perforce, means sadder. What have five don? for Mollie ? She Ut sitting by s windi w, a book dropped in ber lap, nor head leaning on her band, looking out with wide open, unseeing eyes, that betoken their owuer ls far away from present scenes. The room where she sits in evidently not in the old farm-houso. It is very nigh, very nay row, the un pap? red waihi very white and bard, with much the ?dr of a neat prison cell, out for two or three pictures, and a few knick-knacks scattered about, that take oft* something of the rigid, convent? Uko look, and impart a touch of individ uality to the surroundings. Through the window, which ls high up in tao fourth story, are seen, first, a few brick houses with square little back yards, then a wide expanse of green meadow. Io the distance, s broad beautiful river, up and down which white-aailed ships are always gliding. It is that noble stream, the Delaware. Tho view is lovely, bu., to the New Englander, not perfect. His eyes turn involuntarily to the low hori zon where the sky stoops down to meet thu level land, and he yearns, not with out a ?dight pang of houie-slckness, for the irregular, picturesque line of moun tain tops, behind which, "at home," the sun goes down. ThU in Wilmington, and Mollie is es-, tablisbod here es Miss Mary S. Brown, assistant teacher in tho "Minerva Insti tute for Young Ladies." These five yean have brought many changes to her, os years are wont to do. So many things she never thought possible have entered into her life. Sorrow and she aro no longer strangers. Two years after Dick went West she lost her mother. Mollie had never realized that her mother could die. She know death comes to all, but she always regarded it as a far-off calami ty. She was wholly unprepared for the time when the willing feet, the helping bands, should lie weak and helpless, waited on by others, at last, for the darkened room, the softened footsteps, the hoping wheu the heart knows top well all hope is in vain ; tho listening, with no power to help, to the feeble Sasping bnath, and the awful alienee iie solemn, rigid whiteness of the dear face that had never refused to smile On her before. Then there was a funeral. People said Rev. Hr. Thomas excelled himself that it was a powerful discourse. Per haps it was. Mol"e was only conscious of a throng of people crowding into the privacy or ner nome, staring at tho faco which was alike indifferent to friend or stranger ; of a dreary pomp and parade, of a long flow of words that did not pene trate her grief-bewildered senses, cf the King ont for the lost time Over the ?am? r threshold. Life never looks quite the samo again after such experiences as this. " ~ Then carno the unwonted barden of j household responsibility, tho trying to j make the darkened home cheerful for father's, sake. Bot, as ia often the case with a couple who have "climbed th? hill together," when one is taken, tba other' soca follows, and they "sleep tc Sther at the foot" At twenty-three, ollie found herself alone in thc -.vorl?, with very little money in a world' where one might almost think it the one thing needful. 'Squire Brown waa too easy and stood natured, too Willing to sign a fri ency a note, to leave mach property. After sojourning with various relatives until tired of dependence, she had ob tained this situation in the "Minerva In stitute." . She has known the various ex periences expressed by the poet: "What households, though not allen, yet not mine, What bowers of rest divine : To what temptations in lone wildernesses What famine of the heart, what pain arid lora, The bearing of what cross 1" Thia littlo room In tho fourth story of "Minerva Institute" la the truest "bower of rest" she has found, because it is her own. Hero the escapes tho mb erica of dependence ; hore, for a littlo while each day, at least, Bhe is her own mistress, free to think her own thoughts, to livo her own life. These hard years have marked ono or two faint linea across her forehead, have sunken slightly the rounded con tour of her cheek, nave given rather a a! sad droop to her mouth, when at rest, ak now. And yet it ia an attractive face, a! face with character lu ii. Her express* lpn now is not confident, eager, expect" apt ; it is peaceful, and yet bright and strong. It is tho face one would like in their friend, their wife, ? '. < t Aa ehe sits here, ehe is thinking of a talk she and Elinor had, only last; vaca 3nen ?jonu^ semor, was aareiy aown as io store (for even the best cf husbands : may lie dispensed with sometime*,) and John, Junior, was snugly tucked away in bis crib, sitting in that twilight ab con ducive to confidences, thsy had been dis? conning a variety of topics, and finally, matrimony. In tact, this was'a topic pretty sure to come up between Elinor and any unmarried friend. She waa sb happy with her John, that she could not rest easy until all her friend* .Ttre. equal ly blessed. ? rjvj She bad been saying to Mollie, "I do not understand you, at all. It is a sin arid a al?ame for you, of all people, to bc vowed to singlo blessedness. Bach a good wife as yon would make socio for tunato man 1 and - thea yon are so alono in the world. Whv couldn't von be ml. tritio moje civil to Mr, King, for in stance? He b a splendid man-great friend of John's, arid it would have beeri such a suitable match every way." "I did not lore him.

To t facilita o such praiseworthy designs, he t bad been introduced to the whole senior class, had become, in a measure, domes ticated at the Institute. From tbs first moment of seeing Miss Brown, however, be bad felt a strong leading of the spirit in her direction. This leading had man ifested itself in desires for frequent con versations with Bister Brown on ber spiritual condition, in prolonged deten tion of Bister Brown's hand on all occa sions of arrival and departure, and in various other ways equsUy disagreeable to the recipient. This offering of a love : that was not love, seemed to Mollie a cruel mockery in the fates. At least, she might have bad peace, when that waa all she asked now. Bo her descent to tho parlor was marked by anything but fiery , impatience. i She opened the door with an air of ; weary indifference, lifted her eyes lan guidly to meet the oyster-like orbs of Mr. Boody, gave a great start, flushed crim son, turned pale, gasped, "Why. Dick I" I For this tall, maply man, with the big tawny beard and brown face, holding her two bands in bis as if he would never let them go again, and gazing down at her with the ola glow in bis eyes was really Dick, the veritable Dick.

Elinor, after some judicious sounding of , Dick's feelings, had given bim a sum dont hint aa to the probable state of 1 Mollie's mind, to encourage bis calling at Wilmington. But Mollie, of course, knew nothing of this. B?eides, after tho first surprise was i over, all the possibility of chsoge in those , five years of separation loomed up be- I tween them, casting a certain constraint over both. And, by the perversity of the fates, Miss Smith, another of tho , teachers, was also receiving a visitor in i tho parlor. ? ! So Mollio fell to calling him Mr. Be man, ona talking shout tho weather. A listener might have supposed the one ab- , sorbing interest in the Ufe of each had i ? been tho stato of tho thermometer, and 1 that Dick had traveled two thousand miles principally to startle Miss Brown with this striking observation. "Al- ;, though the summer had been cool, I think we shall have a mild, open win tor." To which Miss Brown sparklingly re sponded: "We are certainly having a delightful September." - ' Then a dead pause. Finally Dick, feeling that although Miss Smith might be the worthiest of young women, yet his was one of the oc casions when ho could bear to deprive j himself of her society for a while, was < suddenly adzed with a d?sira to ?m the . beauties of Wilmington, and proposed a walk. . The walk of walks in Wilmington ia up , the Brandywine. A broad, level path, raised up between the red waters of the ! Brandywine. oh. one side, and on the other a deep,, oars;, fern-fringed moat that prosaic people would . csu ? canal, , I suppose, follows the river's windings a .< mile or tw o. Over lt meet large, old ' trees, whose interlaced branches make it one continued alcove. It looks like pic tures of walks in Oxford, England, only . wider, and more retired. i , ; Thia mellow afternoon, when the sky \ looked all the bluet, perhaps, because tho trees were beginning to be slightly tinged with yellow, and when the ?-sing . crickets wci? ciaging tho d?rgo o" uUm > mer gone, down this path slowly strolled \ ai couple, deep in tender converse, utterly i ? oblivious of all the beauties around them. 2 i For Dick bsd managed to blunder out i 'something about bia long lovo for Mollio, ' ? and how :.i thought oh? was engaged to \ Dawless, snd bow he tried io get Over it, } and couldn't, and contd she care for a \ rough old fellow like him f i And MolUe had cried a little. After 1 one has made up their mind to a bleak i life of self denial and singlo blessedness, "J to stumble right into bliss, is bewildering 5 to say the least. But then she had cried T on Dick's shoulder, with bis arm, the I strong arm that would shelter her forever T more, around her, which made it rather $ comfortable distress, after all. Bo the ? mi?understandings and' perplexities were * .all over, nd" *wo hearts formed for each * other hov r i d their own kt last, r ? About Thanlagiving time, there waa a I .quiet wedding atlElinor's. and then Dick ? and MoUiO went out to add ose more to T the New England homes'in the for West. * Perhaps they Wore aU the happier that ? time and hwd experience hau matured 3 sad developed their characters, that ab- i sence had tried and strengthened their ? love, had taught them how to value each ? other.
