If n lover seeks you to lecomo his wife, Happiness or misery may bo yours for life; on't be in a hurry your feelings to confess, But think tho matter over beforoyou ans wer yes. Should ono nsk forgiveness for a grave of fence, Honest tears belroyini; earnest penitence, Pilynnd consolo him and tils fears alloy, And dou't bo in a hurry to drlvo tho child away. Hum brings us worry; worry wears us out, Easy-going people know what they'ro about. Ileedlors haslo will bring us surely lo tho ditch, nd trouble overwhelm us If wo hurry to oe rich, Don't bo in a hurry to throw yourself nwny; Dy tho side of wisdom for a while delav. Muko your life worth living! nobly Oct your pari; And don't he in a hurry to spoil it at Iho start. Don't bo in n hurry to speak an onery word; Don't bo in n hurry to 6prcad tho taloyou heard. Don't bo in a hurry with evil ones lo go; And don't bo in a hurry to answer yes or no. AT INTEREST. Please, Bir, will you give rue n penny- only n penny?'' Paul Parker, on whoso kindly faco the boy turned his gaze, said: See here, boy, I've only got a CO cent piece, nnd it's moro'n I eight to fiya away. I shall bo here nt .1 o'clock this day week, opposite tlm very tavern Will you bo hero to pay it back? Miud 1 only lend it to you nud rnaybo I'll bo abln to find soruo work for yon by that time." 'les, sir, said tlio boy, Rleeuilly, as he scrambled up tbe sido of tho wheel, I will bo here, sure." "I told you ho wouldn't bo here, Paul!" exclninied lira. Parker. "I k lowed it. Now what do jou think ot y.mr fine, honest boj?" Paul Parker's couutennnco fell visibly. "I'm sorry for it. wife sorry from tho very bottom of my heart. I somehow thought ho was difiireut from tho com man lot of 'urn; but I s'poss I hadu't oukIH to expict much from a lad brought tip in tho streets, Well, well! Lit'i drive on.'' Tlio slow.pnss'.ng years had nprinkled their silver blossoms moro plentifully on Paul Pnrker'n head, nud plowed deeper Hues in his wife's face; tho little girl at their fireside had grown into a tall hand sonio young woms-n. It's father's step, mother,'' Baid Luct Plirker, jumping up to open tho door, Well, father, hat luck?" "Had enough, darter,'' said Paul. 'Melton's down ng'iu with fever'u ngcr, his wife's poorly, nnd llrnco has had a stroke, bo ho cau't work no more.'' "Aud they didu't pay yon tho money, Paul? shrieked thu wife, shrilly. "Aud what aro wo to do with Lawyer Martin writln' and writiu' for tho money wo owo him?" We can do nothing, wifo," Puther, is it St. John Martin, the Leeds street lawyer, to whom wo owe this money?" "Yes; what do you know about him?" "Not much, father; but I met hU son atsoveral parties last fall, uud I I thluk, if you wero to go thero with me aud tell him just bow It was, or write, even " Aud Luey Parker, blushing like a sweet-pea, ran lo get the paper nud pen and iuk-bottle, timidly trusting in the cfilcncy of her plan. The elegantly furnished littlo office on Leedj btreet did not often havo such outre trpiinages drawn up before it ns Paul Parker s inud-besnlashed box- wagon oud shaggy old pony; and tho elegantly attired young lawyer, who sat at t'uo desk cxaminins somo papers, glanced up in surprise as tbe bloomiug girl aud tho bent old man entered to gether, like May aud December. "Lucy!" "Nlniiiul I thought your father I did not know that " "My father Is detained nt bis country seat, nud I am acting member of the firm, Lury. He took mo iuto partner ship last week." . He turned iuquirlngly, and with some thing of a start, to Iho brown faced old man, who stood modestly in tho back ground. Lucy introduced her father aud elated her business. "We are very poor, NinUn," oonelud ed Luey, "an it. my father cannot at pies-; nt hope to discharge this debt; bat 1 am soon to have a very good situation in Madam Elviu'i, school ai masio-teacher, Ui J v, c.vu Ul feUNi!, suit ycur lather' would bo so kind as to wait n littlo while, wo" Lucy slopped short; her volco was giving way, and sho was far loo proud to yield to tho fast-coming learn in Nlnlau Martin's presonce. The young man bad listened la silence.btit now he took down a tin box from Its shelf in tho safe, nnd unlocked it, disclosing sundry packages of neatly labeled receipts and uoUs. "Let mo Bee,'' ho cnid, tunning his oyo over thcni; "It was a nole for $500, 1 believe." "Yes, sir," answered tbo old man; "for foOO." "Is this your note?" "Yes, sir." Niniau Martin toro it in two ncd laid the fragments on tho Ore. Paul Parker nnd Lucy E'lzud in astonishment as tbo hnmlsonio young lawyer lifted bis dark eyes calmly toward them. 'Then, Mr. Parker, you may consider that you have to-day received tho pay ment for a very old debt. Wo havo bal anced rtocounts." "Sir, I don't understand yon," said tbo ewildorod old man. "I dou't remem ber" "Rut I do. It is rather moro than ten yeara, Mr. Parker, siuco yoa put money at interest." "Sir?" "I will bo more plain with yon,' said tho young man, smiling. "Perhaps Miss Parker is not nwaro that I am only the adopted son of my more than father. My real nanio is Nino Uerjani. I nm nn Italian by birth. Just ten years ago I was begging in tbo streets Of Lwlhill, starved nud penniless, A. kind hand you l;njw whose, Mr. Parker extended itself to me in tbe Hour of need. - The old man's face lighted up. "I do remember now. It was a CO cent piece; nud I told you to enmo back just n week from that lime, and" "Aud I did not come? No, but I tried my very best to come, but was prevented by the brntality oj the man whoso slave and drudge I was. Por weeks afterward, evejy Thursday. I was on tho spot at U o'clock, watching and waiting for you, but you never came. . "Well, I begged ray way to Boston, having run away from my tyrant. St. John Martin found mo ouo night in tho btreot.i, perishing from cold aud starva tion. Ho had just lost bis only child, a boy of about my own nge, aud somehow I seemed to tako tho toro vacant place in his heart." "I thought you wouldn't ha' cheated me, boy," ho said, bimply. "I thought your face was a good nud trno one. I don't know how to thank you, young man." "Then do not nltcmpt it. Porhaps some of theso days," ho added, with nn arch Ktuilo wbioh brightened up his olive face like n glow, ''I may ask you for yet more favors." Old Paul Parker went homo to his wifo sedately triumphant. Aud he told his adventures, while Lucy sat by, smiling nnd rosy as a May uioruiug. "Didn't Iinvest 50 cents to prolty good advantage?" be demanded gleefully. And Mrs. Parker answered not a word, but stared until her very spectacle glass, es were in danger, "Well, I neverl'' was her ultimatum. "IIo wauta new favor some day from me,' added Paul, merrily looking into Lucy's eye. "What do you say, mother? Cm wo spare our litlla gal here?" "Don't father!" cried Lncj', hidin; her face, but she didn't look very angry, after all. A Lucky Accident. "I cay, Charlie, you havo dona for yourself this time!'' Baid pretty Doris Thornton to her adorer, Charlie lting' wood, of tho Chalkshire regimeul.as they were sitting together after dinner in the conservatory, "by speaking as yon did at dinner against steam launches, and saying that tbo men who owned them and used them were cuds. Pupa just bought one, aud next to his fibbing, has made it his great hobby-" When the young people had returned to tho drawing-room it wa very evident that tbo "old boy" was disturbed. The blow had been dealt, nnd it rankled be ne.ith tho capacious waistcoat of the wealthy old stock-broker. IIo nuswered Lis guest in curt monosyllables, and finally, when it wns tlmo for tho young man to return towuward.iuslead of offer iug him one of his famous Atouio Car unchos, shaking his hnud heartily, and expressing a hope to see him again soon, the old gentleman assumed a tsevcre air nud said: "Ahem Mr. Hingwood, of course ahem a geutlemau of your refined tastes could never nheni think of marr)inu Ihe daughter of a cad who keeps n steam launch! Ahem good night, sir." Charles was staggered, nud lcoked pleadingly at Doris, who, bowoyer, only shook her bead blouly and biguitlcautly. The next morning brought bltu, instead of hope, a letter from bis sweetheart, which made him absolutely miserable. It was as follows; My DEAiittft Ciiir.Lic: I have snatched n moment to write these lew lines Papa was in au awful rage last uiglit after J on Lad goue; called yon nn insolent puppy aud all sorts of tilings, which I ehould not have miuded had he not wound up by foibidding me to bold any further commuuioutiou with you, aud baring that a uiau who would bu oshamed of his father-in.law because he kept a steam launch was not a fit husband for his daughter, What ore we to do? Hveryour affectionate Vov.it Tiiobstok. Iu tho evening he vreut to bis club, where ho met with his icbool-folbw, Jack Haggles. Now, Jack Haggles, al though oontlunelly in difficulty himoelf, was famous for his ingenuity iu getting other wen out, of their troubles. So he get Jack Haggle into squint corner, and there, over a sbefry and bitten, ho UU ibe fiioW of the coat' before him. I.u k wan bib ut foi u few nioweuls uml puffed vigorously at his cigar. At length ho Bald: "I say, Charlie, isn't the old man a rogular maniac for fishing?" "ltilhcr," replied Charlie. "Ho takes a holiday about three times a week to fish. lie starts off after breakfast with n big hamper nnd n jar of beer, and ells in a punt until evening, lint what has that to do with it?" "Never you miud just now," answered his frlond; "but you find out from Miss Thornton when hdr father next intends to go out iu his pnut and where he's likely to be, and then send mo n tele gram to Clarges street, aud I'll tell you what to do." Charlie wroto (o Doris tho first thing the next morning, nnd In the evening got a reply lo tho effect that Mr. Thornton was already makiug preparations for a long day's fiihiug upon tho Wednesday following. Ho telegraphed immediately to Jick Higgles, and received tho fol lowing reply: "Keep close to him, but out of sight.at about G o'clock iu thu evcuiug. Charlie know that Mr, Thornton's hap py bunting-ground was a secluded back water, famous for tench and percb, about a conplo of hundred yard abovo the lawn of his houso. Thithor ho repaired, stealthily, like n man bent on an evil errand, about C o'clock, and took up a position upon n rough river-sida path, well-sigh hidden from sight by bushes and lollage, whenca ho could observe tho enthusiastic old fisherman without being seen himielf. Tho old man was sitting like a wax fignroin his punt, with a large cigar in his month nud a rod iu band, when Charlio arrived. IIo then eaw tbo old gentleman lake out his watch, look nt it attentively, aud after a few moments' slowly nnd reluc tantly beglu to pack up bis rod nnd lino nud put bis paraphernalia together. At lust Mr. Thornton had arranged his tackle aud untied tbo punt poles and was pushing off into mid-stream. So intent wns Charlio in looking nt him that ho did not perceive the dark outline of a steam launch coming directly down upon tbe punt, and he was made aware of tho fact by soeiug tho old gentleman wave ouo f.rm vigorously, aud by benring him shout lustily at the same tlmo that he endeavored to cet hii unwieldy punt back ontof tbe way. Hut it was too late; tho bow of tbo launch went gently against tho punt, though with sufficient force to lilt it up, with which movement the poor old stock-broker was sent floun dering into tho water, yelling mndly ns he went, Quick as thought, Charlio dashed in. Tho water was fortunately barely up lo bis wnlst; so hoseizod Mr. Thornton un der the nrmi, and, after much splashing and shouliug and fuss, got him first iuto tho punt aud then onto the steam launch. ' The first penon Charlio Raw on board was Jack Higgles, who, behind tho res cued stock-broker's back, was! impressing silence and nou-recoguition by tnergetio gestures, Directly Mr. Thornton felt himself firm on his feet, ho burnt into a violent passion. "I consider it positively in Iqnitous that a mail cau't go cut for a day's fishing without being run into by n lot of cockneys who havo io moro idea of handling u steam launch than they havo of handling a balloon!'' As yet the irritated slook-broker had given no thought to bi3 rescuer, but as thoy wero floating gently down tbe stream toward tho bteps ho turned and said "And to whom nm I Indebted for my rescue fromja watery grave?'' Chuilie stepped quietly forward and bowed. The old geutlemau started back and exclaimed: "Good gracious! Mr. Ringwood! Sir, allow ma to shako jour hand most heart ily. You have performed nn action to night which shall not pass without recognition. You are a noble fellow, blr a uoblo fellow "I did nothlug, Mr. Thornton, but what any other man would hnvadene under similar circumstances," said Charlio, feeling himself to be a dreadful bypocrito in assiming tho depiecatory air of hero; "but now that wo are here together I should liko to express mv ex trema regret that I should have given you offense tho other night by expressing my opinion about steam hunches n little moro candidly than perhaps I should have done, but believe mo" Mr. Thornton interrupted him, "Believe me, sir, you did not Bay enough. I nm a complete convert to the opinions ycu hold. Steam hunches are au abomination, sir, aud miue is for sale from this very moment." A LUCKY SLIP, It was about 12 o'clock on a dark, cold February night; the rain had beeu pour ing down steadily for several days. Ono oaild hardly luifgino a more bleak, desolato utatSou than Elmwood on that night. Mr. Hugh Lambert, as ho got out of tho train and went to look after his bag. gago, felt thankful that ho bad only a mile to drive before roicbing home. " As a rule, few passengers alighted at Klmwood by that late (rain, but on this night thero were two boetdes Hugh Lam berta lady and her maid, with a good ly pile of luggage. Hugh -was wondering i littlo as to where they oould be going when he heard tbo girl ask tho station master if there was a carriage waiting from Mrs. Newton's, of l'riararton. "Why, the road has Ixwn blooked sinco 0 o'elock, miss! There's been u big land slip." Hugh Lambert was listening with some interest. Miir. Newton was his nearest neighbor, and a great friend of his; this una! be her niece, uf hou lie bad often beard. . He approached tbe lady and raised hie but eourteoualy. 'f nui Mirrv to say there is no otfcer tond to I'naii'iu. i.uru then' uny way id getting thero to-night, I heard of tho landslip ouly an hour ago, nud I know that tho rond is completely blocked, You must let me arrange this matter for oti. I thluk I must he speaking to Mrs, Newton's niece, Miss Nay Ion?" "You havo guessed rightly;" and Dor othy Noylon looked up eagerly, delighted to fiud any ono to whom sho was known, if only by name. Just at that minnto a horse was heard galloping up the dark road,nnd presently a man came hurrying into tho station. "Is there a vonug lady hero for Prior ton? ' ho asked. Dorothy weul forward, eagerly. "If you phase, mls,here's a nolo from Mrs, Newton I'vo been for hours gel. tlug here; I had to ride twolvo tulles round, for the roads are blocked aud tho floods aro out," Mv DnAtinbT Child: I am iu orcnl dis trfb's. The )oul between here and tho station has been blocked by a lreinoudoni landslip; so it i Impossible to send the enrriago to meet you. I have, therefore, forwarded a note to my great friend, Hugh Lamliert, asking him lo send for you nnd give you nnd your mild shelter tor tho night, till we Bee what is to bo dnuo. Ho is the only neichbor ou that sldo of tho landslip, nnd is bo charming yon tired not mind going to bim;itis indeed tho only thine to bo done. In great basic, your loyiug nunt, juahy NEWTON. Tho coachman had also giyon Hugh Lambert a note. Lambert glanced nt the contents, and theu turned to Dorothy. "lour aunt has kindly trnsted you to me, so now you won't mind accompany ing mo bonip, will you?" be asked. Dorothy was very tireduid wasthank- tul to reach-the houso nud bo handed over to tho care of the housekeeper. Tho next morning Dorothy was: down for 9.30 breakfast, and was shown into a bright little morning-room. Mr. Lnm bert mot her, and was so kind nud anx ious to make her happy and nt home that Bho very soon found herself talking to him ns if sho had knowu htm for years, iustead of his being nn acquaintance of a few hours only. It very soon struck Hugh Limber! that she was different trom most of tho fjrls he had met, and she interested him ac cordingly, He found tho road would le impassable for some days; bo hewrot8 to Mrs. Newton, begging her to let Dorothy remain with him iustead of returning home. The airl felt supremely happy; ho was so kind to her; htich nn agreeable companion iu every way, that she thor oughly enjoyed his society. A fortnight went by and the road was pronounced perfectly safe; even tho floods bad subsided. So Hugh had no excuse for detaining hie fair guest longer and, though very reluctant to part with her, he drove her over to Prairatoa. Sho was standing in tho hall ns ho loft that night after dinner, and hold out her baud lo biy good-bye. 'I can t thank you enough for nil your kiudueis,' sho said softly. "Nay, aiy child, I canuot tell you what a pleasure it has been to me; but perhaps jou will know some day," ho replied, and she went up stuiri wonder- lug what ho meant. Hugh Lambert felt ns if something thing bright had come iuto his life since ho had known Dorothy, She was bo quaint ana naive iu speech, now and fresh in her ideas nnd theories, so free and unaffected iu mnnuer, nud yet bo womanly withal, that during those few days the' had spent together sho had completely won his heart. How he longed iu the cveuiuir for the sound of her voice singing to him "The Land o the Lea" or "Auld Hobiu Gray." And Dorothy began to watch for his oiniing, and, if by chanco something detained him at home, how long the day seemed and how uninteresting everything was. At first she justified it to herselt by tbo thoughts of her friendship lo him a friendship which had ripened quick ly in the pcculiaicircuinstances of their meeting; but littlo by littlo as time passed and she had been at Priorton nearly threo months, it dawned upon the girl that tho feeling sho entertained for Hugh Lambert was something moro than mere friendship. While gathering primroses ono sweet spriug afternoon, Dorothy heard n stop crushiug tho dead leaves and saw Hugh coming toward her. "I want to speak to yon n little," he Baid. "Will you walk with mo a Utile?" L Pscscutly ho turned sharply aud took both her hands, aud looked more in earnest thau sho had ever Been him look. "I can't stand this any longer," he cried out. "I must know my fate one way or tho other. If you cauuot love me in return I will go away aud never norry you ouy more. Am I to go, Dor oth)?" "Go, oh. no!" sho gasped out, hardly able to realize what ho was saying, only feeling that bho could not breathe. Not long otterwards there wasa happy woddiug at tho dear old home, and then Dortohy came bncV lo brighten up the old houso at Lis ton.
