THE FIRST PROPOSAL.
BT THKOIiOKE C. TKALE.
Dr. Ludington was a physician of consid
erable renown, having already accumulated
a princely fortune, and the possessor of a
beautiful mansion on Lexington Avenue.—
He withheld no pleasure that wealth could
procure for his wife and daughter. An af
fectionate father, yet he did not allow his
indulgence to become the came of his dang
ler's ruin in after years. Kate developed
the !>cautiful attributes of her nature, in the
sunshine of her happy home.
The hot sultry dajs of summer were be
coming oppressive in the city, and Dr. Lu-
dingtou concluded to give his family an
agreable surprise, a change from the usual
fashionable summer resort.
He engaged rooms and board in a farm
house, near the picturesque little town of
Lethfield. Kate's love of nature and free
dom, eould lure be enjoyed without th«
tyrannical impositions of fashion to inter-

chain, had accepted Charlie’s invitation to
spend the vacation with him. When Char
lie found his fair cousin was spending the
summer in the country, he concluded to fol
low aud share the pleasures with her.
Edgar Brouitan was the son of Wilson
Brouhau, M. C. A young man of ability,
he gat e promise of a useful future.
Kate's time was now occupied in gallant
ing the gentlemen through the lovely walks
and romantic forest retreats.
As soon as Charlie could find a chance to
speak to Kate alone, he asked her to ex
plain the origin of that scolloped paper with
a red border.
After repeated promises never to divulge
she’s let hint into the secret of Philander
devotion and declaration.
Peal after peal of laughter followed, un
til Charlie complained of a pain in the side.
This was too good for Charlie to keep, and
notwitheundiug Ins numerous promises, he
let Mr. Brouhan into the secret.
Charlie's fun did not let it rest here. Tie
immediately set about to answer it unbe
known to any one.

not find Kate scaling fences, traversing mea
dows, or exploring the woody glen, whicdt
