IT CHARLES BEADE, THE POPULAR ENGLISH
I am an old man: so old am I that, looking
ack, life seems so very long, and yet so short,
pat I do not quite know whether many things
!d not happen in a dream. I am hale and
earty, and merry, for the matter of that; and
hen I laugh my laugh rings out clearly and
pud, they say; so much eo that it makes the
eople around me, especially my grandchildren,
nd nephew and nieces, laugh too. And when
laugh the old times come back when others,
ho are silent now, laughed with me, and then
am suddenly still, and the lauga dies away;
nd when I think of it its empty echoes fill my
ralm just as if it were sleep-laughter in a dream.
When J stop laoghing so suddenly for the

ilillculty to- stop too; and they choke, and
lodge each other, and say, "Ah I that is a good
ftory, Uncle; almost as good as the story you
iold vesterdav."
(Told yesterday; let me see what It was that

her eyes a deep blue, full of merriment at one
moment, ay, at all moments, except when she

any one else, and then they grew deeper and
deeper as they filled with tear. Not for her- I
self. She never cried for herself that I know
of, for she never had a day's Illness. But
she was terribly cut up when nor poor brother
died, and that vou see was how I knew
her. Her brother was my right hand man in
my company. Many's the time that be stood
shoulder to shoulder with me, good at drill,
good at song good at anything. He nsed to
live near the coast: and, indeed, he Joined us,
and I was one of his tent-fellows, and his
chum. Well, be knew people that I knew, and
we were soon lriends; and he took me home to
show me Alice. He was always talking about
her, aud sho about him: and, when ho was there,
scarce a look did she Rive me. Her brother Joe
his name was Joe, and mine, too could do
everything, and ne was the be-all and ena-au oi
the world. I used to think: and eo one day I
tried to run with Joe, and Joe beat me, and
Alice lnucbcd; and then I shot against Joe, and
he beat nie too, and she laughed the more: and
1 wrestled with him and tluew bim, ana sne
didn't laugh then, but ran to see whether he
was hurt, and said it wasn't lair for Joe to tackle
a big icllow like me. although he was nigh an
inch taller. In short, I could not please her any

Well. It was one dav when we heard that the
flatbottomed boats of old Bonoy were not
coming over, and that the Army of Bou

drift, that we made a night oi iu Ay, it was
a night, too I and being hot and in the sum

who was nothing loth, you must know along
the edge of tho ciitf. The sens for centuries
have bean washing that chalk-bound coast,
and at intervals there stand up pillars ot

green patches of land, a lew yards square, on
the top ot them, me people can sucn a piace
"No Alan's Land." and no man can own it,
truly. Well, Joe came to one of these a few
feet ssy twelve from the cliff, and, turning to
me, he said. "Joe Junior," said he I think I
see his bright lace now "I challenge you to
leap up on that 'No Man's Land,' I do!"
"Joe," said 1, nurricdiv, "don't be a toon it

and tumrjed.
It was so sudden that I could only stand

but for a moment, and then he took a sten back.

rumbling sound, and half the top of the "No
Man's Lund" nnrlcd. and the chalk and earth.
and Joe, too, fell down with a crash upon the
rocky coast below.
I ran round the little creek to the other side
ot tho small bay. acd, throwing myself down on
the turt; stretched my neck over, looked out
and cried out "Joel Are vou hurt. Joe ?"
A taint voice came up. and I could see the
poor iellow struggling under a hugs piece of
chalk which seemed to hold htm down in agony

Well, I did run, and we cot rones from the
tenth, and a few strong follows held these as I
swung over the cliff, lust reaching poor Joe as
the cold sea water was lap, lap, lapping up to
his month, taking away his breath aod then
running back, crawling over him and leaving
bubbles or salt foam, as it in sport. 1 got him
our, but be could not stand. Some bones were
broken, and he was sadly bruised; so that I was
forced to lie him to a ropo, and they hauled him
up, and afterwards pulled me up. and we took
him home.
Well I well ! to make a long story short, poor
Joe died, with my praises on his lips, and poor
Alice oowea ner neaa like a broken my. it was
a long time before she got over it, and summer
had grown Into winter, and winter to summer,
to autumn, and to winter again. The threatened
invasion was au over; our swords were getting
rusty, our uniforms rusty, and when the holidays
came I left the firm in which I had just become
a partner, and went to spend a fortnight at my
oju inena s in jvem.
Alice was there, well and oheerful now. and
reconciled to her loss, though we often talked
of poor Joe; and as the davs wore on we grew
ciose logeiner, ana sue caned me by name, and
seemea to nave transterred her brothers love to
me. bhe never told me so. nor let others see it
till one merrv Christmas nioht. when she re
lectcd all her cousins and her(other friends, and
wouia oniy aance wun me.
We had the mistletoe, too. At last one mad
cap fellow proposed that the ladles should kiss
the gentlemen all round when and how they
could; and Alice and I, who had subsided into
solemn talk, and were speaking of poor Joe.
were surrounded, and it was Insisted that Alice
should play too, and she, in a solemn, quiet way
smiling sadly and yet sweetly too, book m
beneatbjthe Christmas bough and kissel me on
Ay, it's many ye ars ago, but I feel it now. y
heart beat so fast that 1 hardly dared return it:
buti put my arm around her, and took her
gently to the bay window of the old hall, saving
as i pressed ner nana, "Alice, aear Alice, aia
you wean that kiss f"
wen, i need not ten you what she answered,
'tis mtv tears aiol nitv veers aso ami I am
surrounded by Alice's dear grandchildren; and
there is one, a tittle thing with light and golden
hair that will deepen into brown, who plays
around my Knees ana tells me her little stories,
her sorrow, and her love: so auick. so sudden.
so hurried in their coming and their going that
they are lue my own, and, as we talk, we grow
quire friends and companions, like my Alice
was to me.
Bless you, she understands It all I bhe is a
woman in her pietty ways; her poutings, pet-
tmsrs, and quarreinngs.' tme manages her house
hold of one wax doll and two wooden ones, and
tells me, for the wax doll is the lady and the
wooden ones are the servants in mobcans and
stuff gowns, when they are impudent and do no
work, and when they gossip with a wooden
policeman who belongs to her brother, lit
tle Joe. .
So we arc fast friends, little Alice and I: and
to-night, on Christmas night, I noticed that sho
would not dance nor play with the pink and
thlny-iaced little boys wbo were so unnaturally
ticlv nid clean in rhnir nnw knickerbockers with
red stockiues; but she came and eat by me and
taikca soitiy in the nrelight as Alice did, and
made me think ot flltv Years ago. And oulv
think how old tiroes came back aud new time
like the old: only Just think, that when her
mother told her she should choose a sweetheart.
she got a little bit or mistletoe, and climbing
slily on my knee, holding me in talk, aa it to
hide her purpose though I euessed it soon. I'll
tell you she put her little doll-like arms around
my necK, ana noitiing tne mistletoe above my
head, she kicsed me again and again, and said I
was her sweetheart!
So this child sweetheart broueht the old times
back the old times thai, are still so distant and
eo near: and with sweet kisses, 'neath the rust
ling leaves, made me think of my dead Alice in
tne grnve.
