"Oh, Tilly JIcEwens! I never saw the llkvsof you!" "Sh-hl" said JIIss JIcEwens, her black eyes dancing with fun. "It's the queurest thing that you can't tell your own mind," resinned Poll Evans. "It wotild tako a power of talk, though, to make ma think you ain't putting soma of it on. I guess if I hail two after me" "Oh. pshaw, Poll, wait till you know something about It. You never had a beau in your life, and I 've had a down or so. And now I mean to get married." "Well," said Toll, rather sullenly, "I ain't as old as you. Anyway, I expect al ways to he sharp enough to know which of two things I like best." "Sharp Isn't the wonl. Toll. It's not a question of fortune.. I don't know wheth er I'd prefer to be Jrs. Jones, the wife of the jeweler, or Mrs. Johnson, tho wife of one of the bosses of the mills. I don't know whether I, like best Jones' blue eyes ami I adore blue eyes or Johnson's black mustache and I love a black mus tache. Ohl there never was a girl In such a quandary V It was about a week after this that Miss McEwens came home to supper with a tragic face, and a letter in her pocket. Poll, In the doorway, nudged her, and pointed to her plate on the dining table.be slde which lay another letter. Tilly swept this also Into her pocket, ate her supper In absolute silence, and afterward beckoned Poll to follow her up stairs. "Don't say a wonl." Jiss JcEwens said, sitting down on the first chair she came to. "I know all about It. One letter Is from Jones and the otlur from Johnson, and they are both dated to-day. And there you alt and laugh!" It was not very kind of Poll, but It Is a fact that she had at down eu the bed and laughed til! the tears ran down her cheeks. "1 can't for my life tell which I like best, Poll, which do you tklnk Is nicest!" "You ain't goln by anything I say. I like Johnson best." "Oh, but Jones Is more than a gentle man. And they're both coming here to night to Ellen Iteeves's surprise party, and each savs I can answer him to night. Think of that, Poll," and Miss McEwens walked the room desperately ; "fcolh com ing for answer to-night." "She does beat the Dutch V thought Poll, an hour later, as she watched Tilly moving about among the noisy and mot ley gathering below stairs, as gay as the gayest, her own saury; Indlffersnt lltt!e self again. Id one corner Jones was standing, stationary as the enormous vase of dried flowers on the table at his side, oyer the top of which he stared at TUly. In an other comer Mr. Johajoa wag trying to Ql R Live and Let Live." Ponna., December 11, 1886. smile at the sallies of a young lady at his side, nnd also covertly watching Tilly, who was an Illustration of perpetual motion. Uetween talking, laughing, dancing and flirting, she had not a second to s'pare. She smiled most sweetly on her two adorers, but managed to vanish like a sprite from their Immediate neighborhood. In vain they made monuments of themselves. Tilly wotild not notice, ttut, as fate would have It, she presently tore a breadth of her dress across. For the moment, tn her annoyance, she forgot everything but the accident, and, with an apology lo her partntr, whirled out of the Virginia reel and started for her own room. How long she was pinning up that breadth she never knew. When she dared to stay away no longer she put out her lamp and slowly very slowly began to descend tho stairs. Of course she at last reached bottom stair, upon which she sat down and dolefully regarded the lines of light under the parlor doors, as If they would help her to a conclusion. It was but a moment she sat there, but In that moment she was terribly startled by a sudden movement close by her In the dark. Her hand was clasped In two others, and a voice whispered: "Tilly, I want my answer. Aren't you going to give It to me?" Miss McEwens was struck dumb. "Why, don't you speak? I know It's you;" and a daring hand touched the short curls on Tilly's forehead. Miss McEvens would have given a deal to have been as sure of the Identity of the questioner. If he would only speak aloud, or If some one would open one of tho par lor doors 1 "Tilly" this time the whisper was ur gent "It's now or 'never with nie. If you don't glye me an up and down 'Yes or 'No' you'll never have the chance again." "Well, then yes." The next instant there was an exclama tion, somewhere beyond in tho dark space, that sounded very profane. The coat col lar of the arm of the Individual nearest Tilly was seized by a third person and the lover she had just accepted was whirled violently against the opposite wall. There was a scullle In the dark Tilly, little coward that she was, uttered a loud scream and ran back up stairs as fast as her feet would carry her. Only two hours, yet It seemed five to her, beforo the door was shaken and Poll's voice demand ed admittance. Tilly sprang to the door. "Oh, Poll," was her first anxious qttos tiou, "did either of tlicm hurt tho other and which did it?" "All I know Is Johnson's down stairs now, bound to wait till he sees you; and Jones left double quick after the set-to. Kotli of 'em was mad enough', If that's all, but they wau't hurt to speak of." Once within the door of the deserted and disordered parlor, Miss McEwens did not long remain In Ignorance as to who her ac cepted lover was. Two arms were thrown around her, and two lips shaded by a black mustache were pressed to her own. Wheth er Miss McEwens thought regretfully of the blue eyes that were lost forever, I can not tell. At any rate she smiled radiantly enough to make Mr. Johnson forget his bruised shoulders and sides, and when, half an hour later, Mr. Johnson exclaimed, "How on earth Jones ever got Into that ball without my knowing It, I can't think and what wns the good of his pitching into me?" she only answcied with a laugh: "Oh, never mind Jones." "ne couldn't stand It to hear you say 'Yes' to me, Tilly." "I suppose he thought I meant to say 'Yes to him," was the Innocent rejoinder. "He might have known better." FASHION NOTES.

The truth Is, tliry grow up much faster than parents are aware. Wlille a mother Innocently believes her little girl s mind Is entirely occupied with her dolls and pels, In reallly the child is weaving romances In which soltita callow youth Is the central figure, and herself the heroine. She may fancy hrr boy Is entirely en grossed with his marbles and his balls, but tho lad himself has already dctiimined his future career of reuown In the pirate's or highwayman's fasciiinting profession. It Is a terrible, revelation when a surrep titious flirtation with the telegraph mrssvn ger, or a midnight escapade, shows loo plainly where the heart of the child Is placed. We know a case In which a boy of fifteen was charged with a crime, and finally con fessed himself guilty. The Bttrprisc and agony of his mother was heartrending. "It cannot be," was the cry. "he Is a lit tie boy. Why he is my baby. Every night he puts his arms around tny neck and kisses me. It Is not possible!" Had the boy actually been a babe in the cradle, the mother would have been no more astonished. It is a fiction pleasing to Ihe parent's hrarls that their children are but children, too young to know or dream of any evil more heinous than childish peccadilloes. But it la a fiction fraught with grave perils. Every mother ought to know If her boy smokes. Yet wo can point to a half dozen boys who puff along the streets, whose molheis (irmly believe them to be angels of light, and would be Indignantly Incredulous If told the facts. QEAVHY VERSUS WIT. There Is a sttong disposition In men of opposite minds to despise each other. A grave man cannot concelvo what is the use of a wit In society, A person who takes a strong, common sense view of the subject, is for pushing out by the head and shoulders an ingenious theorist, who catches at the slightest and faintest analogies; and another man, who scents the ridiculous from afar, will hold no commerce with him who feels extilsltely the fine feeling of tho heart, and is alive to mailing else; whereas, talent is talent, and mind Is mind, in all its branches. Wit gives to lire one or Its best flavors; common sense leads to immediate action, and gives to society its daily motions; large and comprehensive views cause lis annual rotation; ridicule chastises folly and Im pudence, and keeps men in their proper sphere; subtlety seizes hold of the fllto threads of truth; analogy darts away in the most sublime discoveries; feeling paints all tho exquisite passions of man's soul, and rewards htm by a thousand inward visita tions for the sorrows that come from with out. God made It all, It Is all good. We must despiso no sort of talent; they all have their separate duties and uses all the happiness of man for their objects; they all improve, exalt and gladden lilni. He cannot be an anhappy man who has the lovo and smile of a woman to accomp any him In every department of life. It argues a poor opinion or ourselves when we cannot admit any other class or merit beside our own, or any rival In that class. There Is a better than the great man who is always speaking, and that Is tho great roan who only speaks when he has a great word to say. Bo patient In little things. Learn to bear the every-day trials and annoyances or lire quietly and calmly, and then when un forseen trouble or calamity comes, your strength will not forsake you. We must never imagino that It is only the poor and unfortunate who need otlr services. We have some power for good over all with whom we mingle, nnd our be nevolent desires will multiply and strength en In proportion as they culminate In wise action. Human character needs both doing and thinking to make it truly noble and valu able. Just as the perfection or the body demand the full exeictse of ever ono of its parts; so the perfection of the nature re quires the well-balanced exercise or every faculty. Mind nml body must unite all their powers to form an eqitlpped man or woman. Human happiness Is dependent on this two fold lire. Men may admire power, revere Intelli gence, lovo sincerity, hut they cannot honor that man with a good name who is cruel, morose, quarrelsome, or ryen simply in different to his fellow-men. If we look! back on history, wc shall find that those who have Itfl behind them that memory or a good name have had character rooted In integrity, intelligence and good will. II we examine the lives or those around us to whom w unhesitatingly accord the need ol a good name, we shall find that, what ever may be their powers, or their condi tions, or their opinions, the same thice principles are living and growing within mem.
