CRAFTEB II.
It was the delightful June wcather that
tempted me te take a cettage en the river,
lam, tnoreoor, fend of canoelng, and the
owner of a canee or greater width and stabil
ity than such craft usually pessess. It may
be that I de leek an odd flgure as I sit in my
small earK, ciau in wmie uannei anu crewneu
with a large straw hat, but the benellt my
health and temper derive from this exhllat
atlng amusement mere than compensate for
the plebeian raillery I meet with. It was te
avoid beats manned by ln"cmpetent and
hoarse-volced crews of vulgar ceckneys that
ene beautllul afternoon I puddled my canee
up a small tributary, whose windings and
shitllews protected it against the Inroads of
larger croft. In the meauewu en ollber Bide I
could hear the sweep of the scythe and smell
the new-mown hay. It was such a day
as one should stere In the cells of one's
memery ier the winter as a bee stores
heney. I paddled myself about for
a long tlme in peaceful enjoyment,
watching the swallows or kingfishers as they
Hashed through the sunbeams that slanted
through the flickering leaves. After awhlle
turning my canoe, I let myself drift down
with the stream, guiding myself at intervals
with a vigorous stroke of my paddle. Black
care bad no place beside me that day, and I
was deep in a midsummer's dream when
well all ence a violent shock, followed by a
little scream, recalled me te myself and
checked my absent career. I was Jerked un
comfortably forward and my hat shaken
ever my eyes. Te my dismay I found I had
run right into a young lady as I reunded the
curve were the current ran swiftly, who
with her canee motionless In a thick growth
el weeds, was readlng, half concealed by the
boughs of a weeplng willow. Her book fell
into the water ; her canoe, driven closer te
the bank by the collision, grounded, and my
own shared the same fate among the thick
weeds.
"Oh, my peer book I" exclaimed she, be be be
fere I had sufficiently recovered from my
confusion te apologize.
"I beg you a thousand pardons," I slam slam slam
mored, pouring a llttle stream of water ever
her dress from my paddle in my agitation,
"but I didn't see you."
"Oh, It can't be helped," said she good geod goed
naturedly. "Perhaps you'll be kind enough
te pick out my book."
She turned toward me and I saw her
facewas exceedingly pretty one, with ex ex ex
prosslve gray eyes, soft brown hair, dolicate
feature?, and cheeks flushed with the con
fusion my awkwordness had caused. She
soemed much mere incllued te laugh than
te be angry, and I have no denbt my fuce
shewed a curious mixture of shame and as
tonishment. I took the book from the water, and after a
vain attempt te dry its sodden pages, handed
It te the owner.
"Sholley," exclaimed I, readlng the title.
"Yes," said she. "It has met with the
same fate as its peer author.
She glanced at it with a comical little ex
pression of sorrow.
" Yeu are much kinder than I deserve,"
said I, still feeling red and foolish ; " the
only way I can make amends Is by helplug
