"I tell you what it Is, girls, it would
be glorious fun to take advantage of leap
year, and propose to some cross,
,old
bachelor; and see what be would do
about IV said Cobweb, to the rest of us
girls, as we were )along a walk ooe
night, not long since; "what do you
think about it, girls ?"
We all agreed that it would be glo
rious fun..
"But who hag pluck enough to do It?"
uld Lou Wilson.
"Who, indeed, but your humble ser
vant," said Cob Web.
"Oh, yea; .Cobweb can do It to perfec
tion," said Fan Clark, clapping her
haude In high glee, "and you - know the
rest of us will be around where we can
hear all the fuu," Said I.
"But, Cobweb, how will . you manage
it?" said Lou. "I know you are equal
to any emergency, but I don't seem to
think of any one you could practice on
.this time." •
"Well, I do," said Cobweb; "so keep
still a moment and I will unfold my
plan."
"Go ahead," said all of us 111 concert,
for we•well knew there was something
risk op hand, when Cobweb put on, that
face and manner.
"Well, girls," - said Cobweb with a
smile, "you know there la to be a Leap
Year Bail next Monday night, at the
town hall, and I shall ask 'Old 'Black,'
as we girls call him." .
"Oh," said Lou, "you will never dare I
he would annihilate you with one of his
looks."
."Oh, aho don't you believe yourself.
I ruttier think Cobweb lei up to that sort
of thing."
"Well, °Aweh," said r, "get the pro.
gramme all arranged, no that we' can
hear all the rum"
"Oh, yes, yes," said she, "that is all
right."
Well, we got everything arranged be
fore we went home that night, and could
hardly wait to see how IT would work.
First, let ins describe "Old Black." In
the first place, he is not old, but a fine
looking man of about thirty-five years;
but his still, dignified manners, and the
feet of his being unmarried, gave him
the title of "Old Black,'' his real name
being Mr. Levi Black, and the owner of
one of the finest farms In the town of
li-, where he lives alone with an
old housekeeper.
The next day 'Cobweb sent him an in
vitation to the ball, which was promptly
accepted ; and Cobweb was in °high glee.
The wished (or night at length arrived,
and we were all on tiptoe, you may
well believe. Cobweb went early; she
drove up to the door about half past
seven and, running up the steps,
rang the bell. The old housekeeper
came to the door, and looked es though
she thought Cobtweb was crazy when
ehe asked for Mr. Black, but she man
aged to ask her to walk in, and she
yotild telpher master she wanted to see
him:
"But what under the stun that chit of a
thing wants of Mr. Black, I don't see,"
she muttered, as she went out.
Cobweb sat down and waited with all
patience. Soon she came beet, saying
he would be ready presently. Cobweb
"Wafted an hour, and he did not come;
then another hour and no Mr. Black. She
was about to ring for some one to find
out what the trouble was, when in he
came, all smiles, saying:
"Have I been long? I have been hur
ried-so, I am all nerved up."
"Oh, no," said Cobweb, "you have
been Just no time at all. Well, we will
go now, if you are all ready; but it
seems hardly possible—pm have been so
very quick !" •
"Oh yes; I am quite ready."
"Well, now we will go."
She waited on him into the buggy,
and tucked the robes around tilm as so
ber as a Judge, and Whored up the
reins, and they were soon at the hall.
Oh, how honored Cobweb looked, as she
came in with Mr. Black hanging on her
arm. She gave us a look out of those
eyes of hers. that set us all into a laugh ;
but all the while he was as sober as
he could be. But I saw a twinkle in his
eye that meant mischief. Well, all
went as merry as could be. When sup
per time came, Cobweb gave us the
wink to be on hand, as agreed. 'We all
swalljsrred our supper as soon as pouf
ble, knd went and hid in a closet that
opened not of the ladies' dressing room,
where Cobweb meant to entice him af
ter supper, and then propose to him in
the most approved style, as she said.
-We con ut Just keep still. Soon we
saw them come in. Cobweb led him to
a seat, and seating herself beside him,
she looked, over to our hiding -place and
made a face. That set us all to glggting,
and Lou laughed out; but he took no no
tif It, 6Q amp tisouglit It was all right.
"Dear Mr. Black," said Cobweb, mo
ving up to him and taking his baud,
"I have long waited for this opportunity
to open my heart tit pay, bit hare parer
until now found one favorable to my
Purliode."
fie looked a little surpristil, but aid
not seem mud) frightened.
"I have long loved you, and know you
to be the guiding star of my existent*.
Say, now truly, dear, darling George,
do you love me? Don't say no," said
she, dropping on one Imps, -"Don't
14 3400 islp WiFitutit hype. (*IVO 1110 some
encouragement, and I will be the happi
est women alive. Bay, darling, do you
love me a little," and she looked tip in
to his face with such a complete ecun
orfpli of dpyistion, Mitt we were all con
vulsed with laughter.
He looked at her a moment and then
went off Coto such a St of laughter as
you never heard.
Cobweb straightened-up with all the
dignity shifeonid command, iuid Wok
it blot with a htes 'so lash M Toga
arm, until ho stopped laughing, when
he looked up and said :
"Well, you did that well ; bettor than
I could, Milo geed ; and I am glad you
have done so, for I could never have had
the courage to pop the question; but
now you have done the thing—l can
only say, I shall be only too happy to
accept of your heart and hand. I do
love you, and have for a long a bile. I
overheard your conversation that night
and determined to take advantage of it.
Now I am ready to make you the happi
est woman in the world at any tine;
the sooner the better. What do you
say?"
Cobweb looked up to hint, and seeing
that be was In earnest, wilted, as Lou
said. Then be reached out his baud and
drew her to Win, saying:
"Now It remains for you to say
whether it shall be binding or not? I
am willing to abide by my promise,•are
you? Shall we consider It an engage
went or not?" And ho drew her to
him and planted a kiss on her pouting
lips.
"I don't know ; let me go," said Cob
web.
"You will tell me soon," said he, as
he held her fast. "Promise, then I will
let ydu go." She promised, and he said,
"Now, girls, come out here and per
suade her she had better marry 'Old
Black.' "
We all oame out, looking sheepish
enough, I expect. I never saw Cobweb
cornered before; but I think she will
make it all right; We went home in
high glee, but Mr. Black would insist
upon seeing Cobweb home safe, for be
said be always made It a point of duty to
look after all valuable property. How
the affair will terminate, I dou't know ;
but I hope she will conclude to have
him, for be la really a noble fellow ; and
then such good times as we would have
going to see her In that flnp old hones.
If she does, I will let you know all
about it. But we shall never forget how
she looked when she dropped on ' her
knees, 'and rolled up her eyes so loving
ly at hint when she proposed.
PVIICIIASING a FARM.
Collector David Renshaw was a kind
b,earted man as well as able; but smart
Ls he was, on one occasion, in doing a
generous act, be was sadly taken In. An
old customer doing business in Eaton,
N. H., bad tidied, owning Mr. H.'s
firm about $2,000. After settling with
trs brother creditors lie (lung to see Mr.
Renshaw.
"Well," said the latter, "what can
you do for us?", .
"tlave saved my form for you, sir,"
replied the unfortunate.
"Your farm, hey," said Mr. H., "and
what have you got left?"
"Well, sir, a horse, a pig, and a cow,
and altogether I think they may bring
me In about seventy-five dollars—suffi
cient, I hope, to get myself and family
out West, where I intend to settle; by
the way, here's the deed of the farm,
sir," said the poor but honest debtor,
as he passed, the document which certi
fled Mr. les legal right to two hundred
acres of land, "more or less," and long
known se The "Void Stream Farip."
"Oh, that will never do," said Mr.
H., and drawing his check for $.500 he
banded It to hia old customer, remarking
aL the same time that he "was very sor
ry for his misfortunes, and appreciating
his integrity, it gave him great pleasure
to be able to afford him a little help in
starting again."
The poor fellow was greatly surprised,
and reluctantly taking the check, "with
a tear-drop is each eye," heartily thank
ed his over-generous creditor and de
parted, but to beseen by Mr. H. no more.
About the ftrst of April following,
Mr. Heushaw thought he would up
to Eaton and take a look at his real es
tate there. Arriving about dusk be
"put up" at the tavern kept by his old
friend March, who, on learning his
guest's errand, said he would go out
with him next morning and show him
where the farm lay.
Nest day soon after breakfast, the
two sallied out to see it. After proceed
ing a tew rods the old tavern keeper
halted, and directing his companion's
attention to a bare but very steep and
rough looking mountain, that 5t00.21 a
rew miles - off, remarked that "that was
called Bald Mountain "
"That's a rough looking plaoe,'" said
the other.
continued the tavern-keeper,
"the location of your property, the
'Cold Stream Farm,' is on top of that
mountain."
"You know the pbme, don't you ?" In
quired the merchant.
"Why, you don't suppose anybody
was eyer up filere, do you, Mr. Hen
show ?"
"Well, what's the good of it—what
le done with it?" rnefelly Inquired the
atnazed merchant.
"The town sells it every year for the
taxes," replied the tavern keeper.
"They do, hey ?" said Mr. Ilenshaw ;
"and pray tell me who in these parts is
fool enough to hay that style of proper
ty ?"
"Why, any of our ehaps.around hers
who get Into trouble or fall, huy tt 'for
the purpose of settling with their aos
toll creditors."
Mr. Renshaw took the first opportu
nity to return home, and perhaps would

A IVAIF TN AL.
In Butler county, Ohio, lives an illus
trious member of Ole Judiciary, by rank
a J. P, and a Pennsylvania Dutchman
by extraction, "which his name it was"
Squire Ritter. • Once upon a times knot
ty case was tried before him, wherein,
strange to say, his decision gave much
dissatisfaction to the unsuccessful party,
whose counsel promptly gave notice of a
"'motion for a new trial," and a day woe
set for the argument thereof. At the
time appointed the laWyers were on
hand with armfuls of books; anti after
most of Ole day had been spent in a
wordy conflict", the dust of which might
wOll iniVe obselired a clearer mental vis
ion than that of the 'worthy squire, hp
thus disposed of the question: "Veil I

OLp Peppergrass sent to the register
office that he wanted a girl for general
housework. About the time he expected
an application he laid a broom down near
the gate. Presently a girl comes up to
the gate, opens it, and strolls Into the
house; the broom being immediately In
the path, Miss Belsy strides over It. The
old man was on the watch, and the first
salute the girl got was: "I don't want
you!"
The girl departed, and suddenly anoth
er bullet-headed Nancy appears. Seeing
the broom In her way, she gives it a kick,
and waddles up to the house. "You
won't suit me, Miss blopsey !" bawls
Peppergraas.
Finally a third appears, opens the
gate, and noiselessly coming Into the
yard, she carefully closes the gate behind
het, abd.walks up—the broom being still
In the path; she picks it up, carries it
with her, anti deposits it along side Of the
woodshed. Before she can explain her
business there Peppergrass sings out:
"Yes, you can come in : you'll suit me!"
And she did ; for that girl lived with
Peppergraae seven years, 'and only quit
ted Logo housekeeping on ber own book,
and a capital wife she made. Pepper
grass was right.
