Utti* mil'*— only ten and three,
Whisper truly why you wish to be
Dtcuined and stately, awe, sedate,
Aping all the airs of twenty-eight.
Shall bod and blossom ripen ere the prinM,
And August heats before the Maying time?
Here’s a bud, like you, to young and bold
That it dared to peep out In the cold,
And the cruel March blasts blew upon It,
And bleak Winter sent his snow upon It.
TUI it lies all blighted, at our feet!
Once It was Uke you, bright, young and sweat
Little maiden, hare a care, beware;
Let the old maids laugh at what is fair;
They are warped and narrow, and, in truth.
They would sell their very souls for youth.
Oare not, little maid, for what they say;
Still be natural, naive and ooy and gay.
Dancing brooks o'er shining pebbles go
Downward to the river deep and alow,
Growing ever Mas and leas In motion
TUI It rests at last In the calm ooeean.
Light and lissome thus life's stream should be
TUI it widens to Eternity.

I could come up with that Henry
,Cabell an’ his foolishness.
The way it all happened 'bout Sis
an’ him was more’n a year back, when
the Cabells first moved to our neigh
borhood.
Judge Tolliver’s old estate was or-
dered by the court to be sold, because
it was covered by so many mor’gagcs
(an’ land knows, it wern’t covered bv
®uch else), an’ it was bought by Col.
Cabell, Henry’s par.
The colonel settled here by the Blue

When par come down from the 10
o’clock that momin’ we was all in the
back porch.
I was churnin’ to one side, where
the Wash’ngton bower shades tne sun,
and Sis was tracin’ some piller shams,
with two owls a-blinkin’ at one
’nother, an’ “good night” writ erbove.
Them ain’t like common owls, what
wakes up when dark comes.
Par turned the cellar stoop for the
side steps, an* Sis throwed down
everything, an’ says she:
“Par, where’s my mailt”
Henry Cabell was balancin’ hisself
on the porch rail whittlin’, an’ I seen
par’s eves twinkle as they looked that
way, But I give him a warnin’, an’
■ays he:
‘‘Two letters fur you, Irene, a pack
age o’ chicken powders fur you,
Pamely, an’the papers.”
Sis opened one letter.
“A card of acceptance from the cen
tury old magazine,” says she, “an’
laws, mar!” as she read the nex’ one,
“May Meverill will be merried the
lOthl”
I “Them’s too manv mcrrvs fur me,”

an’ hangin’s an’ things o’ rale interest
that goes on In the world.
Par was readin, The News Carrier,
‘Mar, just listen at this item from a
traveler."
‘ “During my sojourn in California I
visited many of the old ruined mis
sions. In the grave yard of one the
priest pointed to a section beyond some
olive trees and said; “All in that row
were of one family, and they were
each in turn kissed By a ghost before
they died.’”"
(I think them’s the verbatim words.)
Said Henry Cabell, when 8is bed
finished: “Allow me to have the pa
per, Miss Irene," an’I seen him read
that fool thing over twice an’ laff a
little to hisaeli as he handed it back.
“Well,” says 1^ “kissin’ must be

That evenin’ ’twas gettin’ sorter

milkin’ gap over by the old Injin
buryin’ ground.

coop an’ counted thirteen turkeys as
they flew up to roost, when here come
Sis a-rulinin’, her lace whiter ’n a
sperrit’s an’ her eyes shinin’ like stars,
an’ says she:
“O marl I’ve seen a ghost slidin’ up
against the fence rail, an’ I’ve had a
token I’m goin’ to die I”
“Nonsense!” said I, you ain’t seen
nothin’ but Jersey white, that’s missed

nights.”
r ‘0 no, indeed, mal” cried she, “an’
0! when I started to run it kissed me
plum in the face.”
“Than ’twern’t no soul but Henry
Cabell" says I. “Land knows you’ve

nough; it’s no wonder he wants to get

■he looked cut erbout Henry, “he’s go-

he’d never git to kiss you ‘good-by’ no

“them lips were cold and clammy, an*
I smelled a smell not of this eartn.”
“Pooh I” said I, “you smelt nothin’
but Henry’s cigar; an’ any lips would
be clammy with the night air cornin’
on.”
i It wam’t no use talkin’ to Sis.
‘Tvehad a warnin’," she repented,
■inkin’on a cheer as we entered the
house, an' claspin’ her hand in an
guish. “Life’s sorrows will soon be

soon turned the old Tolliver house up
side down with verandy’s an’ bay win
dow’s. It fenced in the big plantation
an’altered things eroun’ till, ef the ole
judge could a-rose from under the
cherry tree in the garden, he’d thought
he took on more’n common at the
court house; an’ they do say that
wern’t no little.
Sis was at school in Richmond all
this time, an’ of course knowed nothin’
’bout the new neighbers but what we
writ
She was studyin’ hard to graduate,
an* did, Kerried off all the prizes, an’
the laws knows how much money er-

top, an’ a flower garden o' commence
ment bo’quets tied with white ribbin.
when Sis got offen the train; but I
give him a side glance, an’ up he steps
an’says:
“Present me to your fair daughter.”
Sis’ brown eyes was a sparklin’, an’
she did look powerful fine in her new
cloth travehu’ dress and wide brim
hat rolled erbove them yaller curls an’
rosy cheeks.
I interduced Henry, an’ Sis give
him a short bow, as ef handsome
young men bed a-lined the railroad
from Richmond to file Blue Ridge
tunnel, an’ she was jes’ a little tired
lookin’ ’em over.
Well, it commenced from that day.
Miss Cabell said Sis was a beauty—a
airy, fairy suthin’ ’nother; an’ the
colonel let on like she was a queen,
with his chivalous manners. Sis has
got a mighty talcin’ way with her, an’
she was sweet as pie to all but Hennr.
Him she were perlite to, an’ she
wern’t no more.
She hedn’t been home no time ’fore
folks seemed to take the heft o’ the
whole business’bout her an’ Henry qu
theirselves. What with sayin’ ’twould
how highty-tighty Sis was)
ur a neighbor to come nigh the house.
Henry got his spankin” new double
team an’ asked Sis to go with him to
the big meetin’ at Tnnklin Spring
church a-Sunday.
Sis’ new laylac silk come from the
town dressmaker’s a-Sadurdy, ap’ the

Henry's horses was slow for bloods,
as par said, fur me ’n him got to church
first.
When they arriv’, however, a
dashin’ looking couple they was.
Nothin’ on that church green belt a
taller candle to the sun by ’em.
Isetty Green was nigh the kerridge
block when Henry driv roun’ with a
flourish, an’ says sue to Myra Brown:
“Sis sets up there like sheliad a deed

“She do,” says Myra, “but I reckon
CoL Cabell ’ll go higher’n a miller’s
daughter fur his son.
Sis heard it, an’ the spots in her
whito lace veil showed out like polka
dot pink caliker ’gainst her face, as
she and Henry passed to the church
door.
After that she turned the cold
shoulder to Henry an’ kep’ it turned,
an’ things went on worse an’ worse
between ’em.
She nearten'd up sometimes very
gay, a-orivin’ with the young boardin’
gentlemen from the Mountain Top,
an’ singin’ love duets. Then she’d go
off in the sulks, an’ bea-writin’ poetry,
till I more’n suspicioned there was a
rose in the canker.
As fur Henry, he got mighty pale.
Times he’d spruce up an’ drive by

Sis an’ looked reproachful like at me
(though, land sakes, I hedn’t done
nothin’to her), an’we was all miser

Things was this way, an’ I was
studyin’ it over as I went on slow
down the lane the evenin’ I left Sis
a-writin’.
Twas what I call blind man’s hol-

Though misty in the gloamin’, the
bigger stars was a-shinin’ like far off
lights on a dark sea. Way off the
mountain ranges loomed ergainst the
fadin’ sky, with here an’ ther* a lofty
peak in tne dim prospective.
High between Doby’s mountain an’
BaRTKnob, wher’ the tunnel cuts its
way through, a train o’ lighted cars
was a-wintun erlong the dark moun
tain side, like a fiery serpent glidin’
in its hole.

It’s my opinion, Henry Cabell was
in thet stooper a leetle longern'n nec
essary; but finally he opened them
big black eyes o r his’n, an’ Miss Sis

I was.
I knowed jes’ how it happened.

young gal cloak an’ fascernater, an’
he mistook it was Sis.
Ef one kiss was fatal, two couldn’t

they was feedin’, an' a purty sight we
all was.
We went back to our house, an’ it
was some time before Henry got fixed
up an’everything explained.

blushed ernough in one nignt for the

an’ says he:
“This is a fine contra tong, my dear
madam e, to a most unpleasant condi
tion of affairs. ”
“Yes, colonel,” says I, “but kom-
trary is the general natur o’ love, you
know.”
Mis’ Cabell come over the nex’
momin’: an’ I do say it thet fur a
high caste an a tiptop laay, she’s got
as fine feelin’s as any woman I ever
saw.
She embraced Sis an’ said: “Bless
you, my child; you are welcome to
our hearts,” as sue kissed her on the
furred; an’ she an’ Sis bed a real nice
effectin’ scene. But that I was busy
thinkin’ wouldn’t it be better to order
the supper all ready, I’d a-cried too.
(I’ve got a mighty tender heart, par
■ays, when I ain't a-thinkin’ ’bout
other things.)
Sis is all we’ve got She’ll have the
mill place an’ the Hanna tract an’ the
big survey, an’ I don’t see as Henry
Cabell is a-comin’ down so, an’ hinted
as much.
“No, no.” says Mis’ Cabell, “pray
don’t think we harbored such a
thought Irene’s beauty an’ interlec’
will fit her fur any pessition; besides,”
she went on, as a Big tear rolled offen
her nose, “our child’s happiness is of
predomernatin’ importance.”
Consultin’ erbout the trossow, Sis
told her par “she raly could not par
ticularize ; he’d hev to give her cart
blanche,” or suthin’; but to my notion
a four horse team won’t more’n hold
the luggage ef she an’ Mis Cabell gits
the half they talk erbout fur the
bridal tower. *
Henry says he believes in ghosts.
And ef all ghosts’ kisses come to such
bliss as his’n, he advises a more ex
tensive erquaintance with sperrits
then people in general keers to hev.
Sis is so took up with other things
she ain’t writin’ much poetry now, an’
I reckon two or three years’ll likely
cure Sis o’ thet foolishness anyhow.
It was a legend full of horrer,
Told by a priest of San Barbarrer.
But wbila you thrill with fear an' start,
Her you no ghost within your heart?
Is there no memory of a time
You falsely listened to love's rhyme?
No trystln’ place you'd better missed.
Than know you hev the wrong one kissed?
