"A HAPPY ESCAPE."
11Y A. (I.
A pert pretty servant girl in it ino
cap, smart apron with the most fetching
poekoU, in which both hand aro tlirusL
jauntily, ono of them holding a letter.
i no utisK ot ovciiiiiir soltuiH her tlond
beauty into sweetness which quite
subdues tho heart of a young man in tlio
garb of a carpenter. Thev are conver
sing beneath the shelter of a wall behind
t handsome mansion.
"In that, hand which vim havo in votir
pocket, Sue, is n letter, as I live, Let.
me see it. l on will not '( J lien 1 sup
pose it is to some fellow; but J, as your
tiitinc husband, demand to see it.
"Demand, i. lecd," answered the ''ill,
saucily. ""Pis carlv times, I think.lo bo
so masterful. If you will talk like that
nov,what will you do when wo aro mar
ried, I wonder t1"
'Will you let ine see tho letter, Sue?"
"Xo, 1 ,von't."
"Well, then, uood night. You'll be
sorry for thi.s,l expect."
And with iirou''h hut sincere nUeetioii
he snatched the girl to his anns,a,id in a
second was gone.
A iealous, silly fellow," cried Sut'.set-
ting her dainty cap' afresh and hurrying
off to a busier road, whero handsome shops
glowed with light and life. She entered
first one and then anothcr.giving onleis
at caeh witli a merry smile and saucy
words for all. Tho last she entered was
that of a chemibt and post-oflieo c'jinbin
od. 1 rero she asked for a stamp. As
she caiuo out of tho shop she felt for tho
letter to post, and lo! it was gono Sho
turned hot and cold by turns, then hur
riedly retraced her sti'ps,looking an pious
ly for the lost letter, but without success.
Then she entered the house with a burn
ing face and a heavy heart.
A few days later a lady entered one of
the many rooms in the mansion :i room
the proud, idlu lady scarcely vinitcd,for it
was tho schoolroom, wlieic a troupe of
noisy, spoiled children daily mado li.'o a
torture to the pale,swect laced girl vliii
now looked up at tho lady's entrance
nervously. "
The lady witli tho rustling robes peck
ed at the upturned faces of hor olTsprin,',',
then seated herself in tho only easy chair
in tho room, saying, as sho'threw The
Times on tho table, with an exulting
sneer :
"You seo your noble lover, liko tho
rest ol his kind, has loved nnd rode
tv Ty. I to'd you how- it would be long
ago. A man in Sir Jasper Dcring's jios
itiou could not stoop su low as lo niarry
n mere governess. I knew how his dis
graceful attentions would end and warn
ed you against him ; yet vou would con
tinue to make such an exhibition of your
self, You too your devoted slave has
broken his fetters and llown off to the
Hast has, in fain, accepted an important
post under the government. T think thin

Al first -Maggie stormed at the girl for
daring to take such a mutter into her'

Susie looked, shu releiiteil'of her anger,
and hoped all was for the best. Indeed,
afterward, she could not help feeling

she smiled her sweetest on Joo wheii she

for any means of escape, for she thought
his silence showed that her dream was

tho feelings of lovers as . shown in theso
and other instances, lenders Mr. Tenny
son tintil-eiy ttltfit to toll iis'What time of
year or under . what circumstances a
young man s fancy turns to . thoughts of
love.
Spring is precisely the season of tho
year when men, whether young or old,
never think of makijig love. This is due
to a variety of ciiuses, Ip ppring no loss
than 78 per cunt,, of girls, residing, in thu
so called temperate .one havo colds in the
head. Thoyoiing man who calls to seen
giri at (his season is oilhor (old (hat she
is not at home, or he is admitted to traz'o
oil watery eyes, and a ruddy nose, and to
listen to waiiiugs ,;ontiei;niugtlie discopi
fori of a ",g(Ul in. the cad." Obviously,
a gill in, suc.li a condition does not at
tract (ho light or tho heavy .fancy of auv
diseiiniiia!iug young .ma.ii,. The ilatne
of love cap. be easily sniile'd out in oaily
spring, or a mere handkerchief can ex
tinguish it.
Spriugboingthii.s what might be called,
ifter thu. manlier of sporting-men, a close
season -for girls, it is the most unpropi
i ;,.,., r n-. r.... r i '.-.
inii.i ui .tn uiisoii-i luriovo minting. iot
only is it untrue that in the' spring the
fancy of young men turn's girlwaid,, but,
ill point o.f fact., there are other objects
whicli inqvitalilyalU-actinasculinc fancy.
Ono of these is the subject of clothing,'
Thu young man cannot make ,up Jus
mind wjicthcr on apy. given day 'he,slpuld
wear aiieayy overcoat or a light over
coat. If, he wears the former, jie js sure
to bo uncomfortably warm, and if he
wears the latter, ho inevitably .takes cold.
Hence, theie is a constant struggle ip hi.s
mind, a feverish ..uncertainly which, can
not fail to banish all thoughts of Jove.
No man caiuisc thiulanguagc of 'affec
tion with any success whilc ho is suffer
ing from too .warm clothing, and still
less can ho manage to, please a fastidious
woman when, his,. mind is preoccupied
with the. conviction that he has cuitainly
taken cold and thnt. pneuinonin.is about
lo claim hinp.au a victim. It is tiuethat
conversation between thn sexes may be
carrieil on in spring, but its, subject, mat
ter is usiiaMy the cllicacy of mustard plas
t ts, or the comparative value of chlor.
alo of potash ami alum its remedies for
soro Ihroat.
Then, with the advent of spring most
young men arc brought. face to face with
llic problem how to pay for a. spring
suit ofidothcs. Surely tliere is no more
dangerous foo of lovo than the tailor's
bill. In January tlio .young man can
buy tlowers or opera boxes, or hire car
riages, or pay forsupper, for ho has more
or less money in his- pocket, and the
boiiixling-huiisc' keeper und the washer
woman can be made to wail. J Jut when
thoru is a question of ordering spring
clothes, the young man feels his poverty.
He must make a payment on that old ac
court beforo tho tailor will consent to
trust him for a now suit. Thus he has
no money to sparo for tho purposes of
courtship, and his mind Is too much oc
cupied with tlio financial problem to ad
mit of softer and sweeter thoughts.
And then, provided tho young man
lives in tho country, thero is tho spring
mud. How can he, think of going to see
any young lady when ho must walk
through a citiurltT ol a mile of mud and
present himself before her with tho boots
ot an active agriculturist and tho muddy
trousers i a pairoiiiiillU i lio tiling is
clearly out of tho question, and the
young mail is compelled, as a matter of
self respect, lo stay at home till fine
weather begins und thu roads are dry.
-Mr. Tennyson may plead that in
making hi.s preposterous assertion con
cerning the . spring habits of lovers he
nan in iniiiii oiny mo particular young
man wuw was in tne lianit ot silling on
.i , ..
uio moor aiiu repealing pretty verses
concerning his cpus'in Amy, instead of
boldly walking .up to Locksloy HaU,cal
iug on that respectable, matron and ac
cepting an invitation to dinner. Let us
accept this explanation, mid admit that
this idiotical young man's fanov did turn
to thoughts ot Ins cousin Ainv between
tlio hint ol March and the last of Anril,
.uucu goon it iiu mm. aiisb Amy un
doubtedly took tho ground that slo
would imve Homing to do with a young
inan who came with muddy boots to call
on ner wiien slie Inula cold in bur head.
1 Ins was the real reason whv sho dl
missed him and married the other inuii
and the story ought to convince Mr.
Tennyson that spring is- not n gopd
iiuio jor iovo inoKing.
Tim truth i, spring is. the most obiec
tioimbln ot all seasons, . The weather is
ceitaui to bo disagreeable, and no man
can ucce.sfully udaiit his clothing to it.
Itw a season when one,. j equally uu
