I stood with beating heart beside the babbling Mac-tv dice. To see my love come down the glen to keep her tryst with me. I taw her pace with quiet grace the shaded path along, An l pause to pluck a flower or hear the thrush's song. Denied by her proud "father as a suitor to be wen, She came to m3, with loving trust, my gracious little queen. Above my station, heaven knows, that gentle maiden shone, Fcfr she was belie and wide beloved, and I a youth unknown. The rich and great about her thronged, and sought on bended knee The love this gracious princess gave, with oil her heart, to me. So like a startled fawn before my longing eyes she stood. With all the freihness of a girl in Bush of woman hood. I trembled as l put my arm about h«*r form di vine. And-stammered as in awkward speech 1 begged her to be mine. Tis sweet to hear the pattering ruin that lulls a dim lit dream; change brought the field, Mrs. Fauquier, who tried, more or less unsuccessfully, to turn her old southern habits of hospitality to remunerative account. But as poor Fauquier could never bo pre vailed upon to present a bill to a gentleman, sir, and as some of the scions of the best 1 southern families were still waiting for, or i had been recently dismissed from, a ixisition, the experiment was a pecuniary failure. Yet the hDuse was of excellent repute and well patronized; indeed, it was worth something to see old Fauquier sitting at the head of his own ! table, in something of his ancestral style, re lating anecdote# of great men now dead and * gone, interrupted only by occasional visits from importunate tradesmen. Prominent among what Mr. Fauquier I called his “little family,” was a black-eyed | lady of great powers of fascination, and con siderable local reputation as a flirt. Never- theless, these social aberrations were: amply condoned by a facile and com- ! placet husband, who looked with a i lenient and even admiring eye upon the i I little lady’s amusement, and, to a certain ox- j | tent, lent a tacit indorsement to her conduct. | Nobody mi ded Hopkinson; in the blaze of Mrs. Hopkinson’s fascinations ho was com pletely lost sight of. A few married women with unduly sensitive husbands, and several sitiglp ladies of the best and longest standing, reflected severely on her conduct. The younger men, of course, admired her, but I think she got her chief support from old fogies like ourselves.

HOW IT WAS LOBBIED FOR. HE Hon. Pratt C. Gashwiler, M. C., was, of course, un aware of the inci dent described in the last chapter. His secret, even if it had been discov ered by Dobbs, was safe in that gentle- man's innocent and MRS. hopkinson. honorable hands, end certainly was not of a quality that Mr. Wiles, at present, would have cared to ex pose. For, in spite of Mr. Wilts’ discom fiture, he still had enough experience of char acter to know that the irate member from Fresno would be satisfied with his own pecu liar manner of vindicating his own personal integrity, and would not make a public scan dal of it. Again, Wiles was convinced that Dobbs was equally implicated with Gash wiler and would be silent for his own sake. So that poor Dobbs, as is too often the fate of simple but weak natures, bad full credit for duplicity by every rascal in the land. From which it may be inferred that nothing occurred to disturb the security of Gashwiler. When the door closed upon Mr. Wiles he in dited a note which, with a costly but exceed ingly distasteful bouquet—rearranged by his own fat fingers, and discord and incongruity visible in every combination of color—he sent off by a special messenger. Then ho pro ceeded to make his toilet—an operation rarely gi aceful or picturesque in our sex, and an in sult to the spectator when obesity is super- added. When he had put on a clean shirt, of which there was grossly too much, and added & white waistcoat, that seemed to accent his rotundity, he completed his attire with a black frock coat of the latest style, anti sur veyed himself complacently before a mirror. It is to be recorded that, however satisfactory the result might have been to Mr. Gashwiler, it was not so to the disinterested spectator. There are some men on whom “that deformed thief, Fashion,” avenges himself by making their clothes appear perennially new. The gloss of the tailor’s iron never disappears; the creases of the shelf jxirpefually rise in judg- dgniiibt the wearer. Novelty was the generalsuggestion of Mr. Gashwiler’s full dress—it was never his habitude—and “Our Own Make,” “Nobby,” and the “Latest Style, only $15,” was ns patent on the legislator’s broad buck as if it still retained the shop man’s ticket. Thus arrayed, within an hour he compla cently followed the note and his floral offer ing. The house* he sought bad been once the residence of a foreign ambassador, who had loyally represented his government in a single unimportant treaty, now forgotten, and in various receptions and dinners, still actively remembered by occasional visit# to now the average dreary Ai “Dear me,” the fascinating Mr. X won say, “but do you know, love, in this very room I remember meeting the distinguished Marquis of Monte Pio;” or perhaps the fash ionable Jones, of the .date department, in stantly crushed the decayed friend he was perfunctorily visiting by saying: “Ton my soul, you here? Why, the last time I was in, this room I gossiped for an hour with the Countess de Castenet in that very corner.” For, with the recall of the aforesaid ambas sador, the mansion bad become a boarding house, kept by the wife of a departmental clerk Perha|« there was nothing in the history of the house more quaint and philosophic than the story of its present occupant Roger Fauq tier hail been a departmental clerk for forty years. It was at once his practical good luck and Jiis misfortune to have been early appointed to a jiosition which required a thorough and complete knowledge of the formulas and routine of a department that exiiended millions of the public funds. Fau quier, on a poor salary, diminishing instead of increasing with his service, had assn suc- cestife administrations bad and Mosmtn and demn as a fault; our “withers are unwrung,” j r et we st ill confess to the fascinations of a pretty face. Wo know, bless us, from dear experience, the exact value of oho woman’s opinion of another; we want our brilliant little friend to shine; it is only the moths who will burn their two-pennyeimmature wings in the flame! And why should they not? Nature has been pleased to sup ly more moths than candles. Goto! Give the pretty creature—lx? -she maid, wife or widow—a show! And so, my dear sir, while mater- familias bends her black brows in disgust, we smile our superior little smile, and extend to Mistress Anonyma our gracious indorsement. • And if giddiness is grateful, or if folly is friendly—well, of course, wo can’t help that. Indeed, it rather proves our theory. I had intended to say something about Hop kinson; but really there is very little to say. H« was invariably good humored. A few ladies once trial to show him that he really ought to feel worse than he did about the conduct of his wife; audit is recorded that Hopkinson, in an excess of good humor and kindness, promised to do so. Indeed, the good fellow was so accessible that it is said young DeLancy, of the taj)o department, con fided to Hopkinson his jealousy of a rival; and revealed the awful secret that he (Do Ltfdcy) had reason to expect more loyalty i from hi» (Hopkinson’s) wife. The good fel- ; low is reported to have been very gym- ! pathetic, and to have promised DeLancy to lend whatever influence he had with 4Ii*s. ! Hopkinson in his favor. “You see,” he said explanatorily to DeLancy, “she has a good j deal to attend to lately, and, I suppose, has got rather careless—that’s women's way. But ! if I can't bring her round I'll speak to Gosh- ! wiler—I'll get him to Use his influence with Mrs. Hop. So cheer up, my boy; he’ll make ' it all right.” € The appearance of a bouquet on the table of Mrs. Hopkinson was no rare event; never- j theless, Mr. Gashwiler’s was not tffore. Its 1 hideous contrasts had offended her woman’s eye—it is observable that good taste survives the wreck of nil the other feminine virtues— ; and she had distributed it to make bouton- ! Llirxa for other gentlemen. YtvN when he appeared, she said to him hastily, putting her little hand over the cardiac region : “I’m aagtad you came. But you gave me such a fright an hour ago.” Mr. Gashwiler was l»oth pleased and as tounded. “What have I done, my dear Mrs. Hopkinson?” he began. “Oh, don’t talk,” she said, sadly. “What have you done, indeed! Why, you sent me that beautiful bouquet. I could not mistake your taste in the arrangement of the flowers; but my husband was here. You know his jealousy. I was obliged to conceal it from him. Ncver—promise me now—nev*r do it again.” Mr. Gashwiler gallantly protested. “No! I am serious! I was so agitated; he must have seen me blush.” Nothing but the gross flattery of this speech could have clodded its manifest absurdity to the Gashwiler consciousness. But Mr. Gash wiler had aln*a<ly succumbed to the. girlish half timidity with' which it* was uttered. Nevertheless, he could not help saying: “Cut why should he be so jealous now ? Only day before yesterday I saw Simpson, of Duluth, hand you a nosegay right before hiif.l” ‘ Ah,” returned the lady, “ho was outwardly calm then, but you know nothing of the scene that occurred between us after you left” . “But,” gasped the practical Gashwiler, “Simpson had given your husband that con tract—a cool fifty thousand in his pocket!” Mrs. Hopkinson looked as dignifledly at Gashwiler as wifr consistent with five feet three (the extra three inches l>eing a pyramidal structure of straw-colored hair), a frond of faint curls, a pair of laughing blue eyes and a small belted waist. Then she said, with a casting down of her lids: “You forget that my husband loves me,” I and for once the minx appeared to look peni- ^ It was becoming; but as it had been in&lly practiced in a simple w^ite dress, relieved only with pale-blue ribbons, it was not entirely in keeping with beflounced laven der and rose-colored trimmings. Yet the woman who hesitates between her moral ex pression and the harmony of her dress is lost. Aqd Mrs. Hopkinson was victrix by her very audacity. Mr. Gashwiler was flattered. The most dis solute man likes the appearance of virtue. “But graces and accomplishments like yours, dear Mrs. Hopkinson,” he said oleaginously, “belong to the whole coun try.” Which, with something between a courtesy and a strut, he endeavored to rep resent “And I shall want to avail myself of all,” be added, “in the matter of the Castro claim. A little supper at Welcker’s, a glass or two of champagne, and a single flash of those bright eyes, and the thing L* done.” “But,” said Mrs. Hopkinson, “I have prom ised Jasiah that I would give up all those frivolities, and, although my conscience is clear, you know bow people talk! Josiah hears it Why, only last night, at a recep tion at the Patagonian minister's, every woman in the room gosdped about ms be cause I led. the german with him. As if a • inatriK** *utiMui, wnoee nuxDand was in tercstod in the government could not be civil to fcbo representative of a friendly power!” Mr. Gubwiler did not see how Mr. Hop kinson's late contract for supplying salt jwrk and canned provisions to the army of the United States should make his wife suscep tible to the advances of foreign princes; but - ho prudently kept that to himself. Still, not being himself a diplomat, ho could not help saying: “But I understood that Mr. Hopkinson did not object to your interesting yourself in this claim, and you know some of the stock ” The lady slatted, and said: “StockI Dear Mr. Gashwiler, for heaven's sake don’t mention that hideous name to me. Stock, l am sick of it! Have you gentlemen no other topic for a lady?” 81hj punctuated her sentence with a mis chievous look at her interlocutor. For a second time, I regret to say, that Mr. Gash wiler succumbed. The Homan constituency at Remus, it is to be hoped, were happily ignorant of this hist defection of their great legislator. Mr. Gashwiler instantly forgot his theme—began to ply the lady with a cer tain bovine-like gallantry, which it is to be said to her credit she parried with a playful, terrier-like dexterity, when the servant sud denly announced, “Mr. Wiles.” Gashwiler started. Not so Mrs. Hopkin son, who, however, prudently and quietly re moved her own chair several inches from Gashwiler’s. “Do you know Mr. Wiles!” she asked pleas antly. “No! That is, I—ah—yes, I may say I have had some business relations with him,” responded Gashwiler rising. “Won’t you stay?” she added pleadingly. “Do.” Mr. Gashwiler's prudence always got the better of his gallantry. “Not now,” he re sponded in some nervousness. “Perhaps I had better go now, in view of what you have just said about gossip You need not men tion my name to this-er—this—Mr. Wile#.” And with one eye on the door, and an awk ward dash of his lips at the lady's fingers, he withdrew. There was no introductory formula to Mr. Wiles’ interview. He dashed at once in me- dias res. “Gashwiler knows a woman that, he says, can help us against the Spanish girl who is coming here with proofs, prettiness, fascination, and what not! You must find her out.” “Why?” asked the lady laughingly. “Because I don’t trust that Gashwiler. A woman with a pretty face and an ounce of brains could sell him out; aye, and us with him.” “Oh, say two ounces of brains. Mr. Wiles, Mr. Gashwiler is no fool.” “Possibly, except when jour sex is con cerned, and it is very likely that the woman is his superior.” “I should thkik so,” said Mrs. Hopkinson with a mischievous look. “Ah, you know her, then?” “Not so well as I know him,” said Mrs. H. quite seriously. “I wish I did.” “Well, you’ll find out if she’s to lie trusted. You are laughing—this is a serious matter! This woman ” Mrs. Hopkinson dropped him a charming courtesy and said “C’est moi!” (To be Continued.) iy Heart’s Delight. Final Notice.
