TITE SCHANTON TRIBUNE-THURSDAY MOTCNTNG-, JANUARY 7, 1897, 1 WHERE IGNORANCE IS BLISS-? !i By MARGARET DELAND. Author o:r "John Ward, Preacher." Copyright, 197, by the 1'AttT I. "Tho most dellKlitful thins about our (.liKUKotncnt is that ovurybody Is so IiIoummI with it." Amy Townseiul said this. mnilliis down at lir lover, who, full length on the Kvass bcsldo her. leaned on ills elbow, watching her sort liaif hlowint; across her forolirnd, and the color of the sun lllckorliiR through Hie shadowp, hot on her check; for she had iloM'Ml her Unify white parasol and taliyn olf her hat, here undi'i' an oak tri'c on tho urassy bank of tho river. "1 should have thoiiKht that the fact that we were pleased ourselves was a tnilo more Important'.'" he sutCKested. Hut Miss Townseiul paid no attention to his Interruption. Von know, (rcnernlly, when people pit fiiKaffed, there are always people who exclaim: either the man is too good for the Kill (and you lire too uood for me, Billy! or the (,'lrl is too good for the man" "She is; llieie Is no irucstlon about tliot," tlie man intorruptud. "He ijuli't!" the other eommandod; 'but in our ease, everybody approves. Y"ii nee, in the llrst place, you aie a Parson, and I'm a Worker. That's what they call me, the old ladies; 'a Work er.' And, of course, that'.i a most ap propriate combination to start with." "Well, the old Indies will discover that my wife tan I Koiiif," to run their ( .'ounllteos for them." the parson said, I'lipbatically; "besides if I'm a Par si.n. you're a I'arson! How do the old ladies bear It, that 1 haven't any an cestirs, and used to inn errands in a tin shop? I'm a worker, literally enough." "You are a kooso," she told him, calmly; "don't keep Interrupting me, Hilly. What do ancestors amount to'.' 1 admit I'm glad that none of mine Mine, handed (so far as I know) or that they didn't run off -with other people's money or wives. (I'd mind the wives less than the money, I must confess. 1 suppose y.on think that's very medl eal in me'') Hut what credit is their guod behavior to me.' You are a credit to your people, whoever they v, civ and my own belief is, they were Hrlnees!" .She had such a charming way of Hinging up her head, and looking down at him sidewlse, that he was willing to have had any kind of ancestors, only to tatcb that look of joyous pride; and In bis own joyousness he was Impelled to try to take her lund in his; but her fingers were lneed about her knee, and she shook her head. "No! I'm talking seriously; , you mustn't lie silly. Y'ou must listen to the other reasons why we are approved ol: Klrst, you arc a Parson, and Tin a Worker. Secondly, you are lorty-two, and it's high time, high time sir! for ou to be married; and I'm twenty- ven and, l tally, you know, 'my chances are lessening' (that's what they say, my dear); and I 'hardly de ceive, after all these years' " "Ami oliers?" suggested her lover "Alter all these years, Hilly, not to get a crooked stick In the end." "I'm not crooked, I will admit," lie said. "Thirdly." she proceeded, "you are wry good-looking, and all the old Tab bies i,ay that a handsome minister ought to be married." 'The old tabblos might find some thing bettor to talk about," he said, bis face hardening. "Oh, Amy, that's tin- kind of tiling that makes a man cringr!-I mean a minister. Here is this great, serious, strenuous matter of living the consciousness of Clod; that's what llvinc Is In Its highest ex pression! and to further that con sciousness Is the dlvinest human pas slun. A man tries to do it, gives his life to It, and Immediately he Is food -L-fe'i ,)f' . . .. 11 1 I Sf "YOU ARE A GOOSE," SH lor chattering old women! They gos sip about his affairs, or his clothes, or bis looks even!" William West sat up, his face stirred with anger and pity. "Hut I suppose I must admit that the Parsons In lug it on them selves to some extent," ho ended, with a sigh; "we don't mingle enough with men; they distrust us, and think we tall; twaddle about overcoming temp tutlons we know nothing about; so, be ing shut out from masculine living, we do haunt ten tables, and gabble about vestments. 1 suppose there's no doubt of 11." He had a certain stern way of thrusting out his lower Up when he vas very much In earnest, and draw ing hta strong brows together; an Im patient file sprang into his beautiful dark eyes. He turned and looked at lier, claiming her understanding. "Yes," she said; "yes; It Is so. The belittling of the profession of the min istry. Is a dreadful thing. A shameful tiling. I once heuid n man say that elderly unmarried women always had to have somethlnr to fuss over and coddle, something to lead around by a blue ribbon. Sometimes It wns a poodle; sometimes it was a clergyman.' And there's truth in It, Hilly." "There Is," he said, grimly. "Well, dear," she reassured him, smil ing, "your distinguished rudeness to tho ladles of your congregation has, at least, protected you from the blue rib bon," He began to protest, but the talk slipped back Into their own affairs, and somehow he succeded In getting her ""l Mij.l -: -St IV iflPsg, - 3 v 'v It - sV IJnchellcr Syntlloate. linnd, and by and by they wore silent, just for happiness, and because it was sunset, and the river was Metering with light, and there was a faint stir of leaves overhead. They were to be married in a fortnight, and they wore going to have all their lives together to sny how good life was, so there was no need to talk now. As the girl has said, It really was a very unsatisfactory match. William West was a mnn whom everyone hon ored, and many loved. For fifteen years he hnd been settled in Mercer; llrst as nn assistant to old Mr. Hrown, anil then as rector of tho church. Hut he hail taken his place in the community as a man of strong Judgment and high character; perhaps as a citizen, rather than us a minister. Men felt that he was a man, before he was a clergy man; not knowing that his calling had given him his highest manhood. He was singularly devoid of clerical affec tation; consequently the Influence of Ills own reverence, was not vitiated by a suspicion of ills common sense. In fact,' his sanity in matters religious Joined to his knowledge of liuninn na ture, made him a man of importance In affairs municipal and social. That he had lived to be forty-two, and had not married, was from no asceticism; he was a very human person, and fully intended to have a wife; only, she must, be Just what he wanted. And so far, that "not impossible She" who was to possess hta heart, had never appeared. When she did, he recognized her Im mediately, and would have proposed to her the next day,' had not a feel ing of diffidence as to her sentiments deterred him for nearly two weeks. At the end of that time, ho told her all, well, never mind what ho told her! She, at least, will never forget the passion of that claiming. Amy Townsend had to come to spend the winter in Mercer, with a cousin. Of course, the first Sunday, she went to St. James, as everybody who was anybody, did. When she came home, her eyes were keen with Interest. "Do tell me about him, Cousin Kate," she said; "I never heard that sort of preaching; what does It mean? Is he a real person, or Is lie just clever?" Mrs. Haul laughed. "Walt till you meet him! you'll see." Hut she also adde to herself, "wait till he meets you!" For Mrs. Paul was one of those courageous women who lush In where angels fear to tread; she was a match maker. "Is he married?" the girl asked, naturally enough, but blushed furiously the next Instant, which made her angry. "No; but it's not for lack of oppor tunity," said Mrs. Paul, dryly. "I de clare, Amy, women are dreadful fools, sometimes! 1 should think a clergyman wouldn't marry, out of sheer disgust for their silliness." "Oh, he's run after, Is he?" Miss Townsend said, coldly, "Well, I must admit he's very at tractive,' Mrs. Paul besan, remember ing her scheme, and retreating a lit tlefor nothing will put a girl against a man sooner than to know he is "run after." Then she told his story; the boy had been a waif ("his mother was respect able, I think, said Mrs. Paul, "but no body knows anything about the fa ther.") He had had that dreariest sort of childhood, which knows no other home than an Institution. Then, some how, "quite like a story book," airs. Paul said, a gentleman took an Interest in him, and began to help him In one way or another. "It was that zoological man, Prof. Wilson; you know who I mean?" VI V y w Yv E TOLD HIM, CALMLY. Mrs. Paul explained. "He looked after him. At llrst he put him In a tin shop, if you please; fancy! this man with the grnnd manner!'" "Oh, I supposed he was u gentleman," Amy Townsend said. "Amy, you are a snob!" her cousin answered, hotly. "He Is!" Mrs. Paul was so annoyed that she ended the story of Mr. West's career very briefly. "Prof. Wilson oered either to start him In business or put him through col lege; he chose to go to college." "That was lather tine," Miss Town send agreed, "Fine? It just showed what sort of a man he was!" cried Mrs. Paul; "he worked his woy to some' extent; that Is, he was Prof. Wilson's secretary and he did o lot of tutoring. Prof. AVI1 son left him a good deal of money, but he gave away nearly half of It at once, John says. Quite remarkable for a young man. Well, that's all; you see what he Is today? a gentleman nnd a scholar! John says there Is no man In Mercer who has the Influence thut he bus." Miss Townsend, in suite of her care ful Indifference, wns Interested. And later, when Hew William West met her he, too, was "Interested;" and nil felt out os the most experienced romancer could desire. Amy hud a little money, much clinrm, a certain distinction thut 'answered for beauty, and a very true nature; there wus, perhaps, a certain hard Integrity about her, but her Impulses were gra cious. Also, as the old ladles said, she lhyM "IV" ' h was a "worker." She found life too In teresting not to meddle with It. So It lia? come to pass that these two, who, as Mrs. Paul said, "weru made for each other," were going to bo married. ' "JtiRt think, In two weeks!" ho said, as they sat hero under the oak, the grass blossoming knee deep about them, and the air sweet with clover; "Amy, It does not seem as if I had been allvo until now!" "I wonder docs it go on getting nicer?" she asked htm, a little shyly. Amy Townsend wus very much in love, but this man's strength always gave her a slight sense of timidity. ' How ever, a girl adores this uncomfortable feeling, which men rarely comprehend. "Everything seems to be better, and more worth while," she told him. "I understand," he said. And they were silent for awhile, bo cause understanding is enough, when people are In love. Then the girl's gnyety began to sparkle out: "Hilly, Cousin Kate says If I'm not careful, I'll get to be a managing Pnr- HAPPINESS snnes-'s: she says 1 must devote myself to you; not to your poor people." "Mrs. Paul lias given a great deal of good advice In her day," the Hev Hilly remarked, meditatively, "and I really think very little hurm has come from It." "She advised your being called to Mercer. Did you know that?" "Know It? My dear child! how often have I dined at the Paul's? Just so often have I heard It." "Now, Hilly, that's not very nice In you." "I but stated a fact; and I have n high regard for Mrs. Paul. Only, when I think how many girls she has tried to make marry mo! but tlley would none of them look at me." "And In two weeks the opportunity' will be gone," she jeered. "Poor girls!" ltev. Hilly commiser ated; and was removed for vanity. Indeed, just because happiness Is so serious a thlntr, they became very frivolous, these two, slttlnc watching the sunset, and the river. Amy told him a funny story about the parish; he responded by another concerning Tom Kellly, a policeman; which re minded Amy to tell him that poor Tom had an accident, and hurt his hand. "Hut It wns very stupid In him," she added, with a little of that resentful goodness that one sees sometimes in women; "I'm not at all sorry for him, because he deserved it. He had been drinking, and as he went stumbling out of a car, he crushed his hand In the door." Her lover was not to be lured into professional comments; he only mur mured, "Mauvals quart d'heure " which made her say, indignantly: "Now, Hilly, really, that is too much!" and insist that they should go home Immediately. "I cannot descend to such levels," she told him; and was very stern and forbidding, when, look ing to the right and left, and seeing no man, he begged to be allowed to kiss her. Hut this wns all froth. Heneath, In the man's life, were the great tides of love, moving, noiseless and unchangea ble from out the depths of his soul. In the girl's life it was all shine, and per fume and glitter, like flowers blossom ing on a rock; beneath, in her heart, was the solid ground of reverence and faith. (To be Continued. Tour, to Florida. No district In America presents, dur ing the winter season, so many varied attractions as the state of Florida. Be sides its delightful climate, which to one escaping from the cold und un healthful changes of the north seems almost ethereal, it Is pre-eminently a land of sport and pleasure. Along its eleven hundred miles of salt water coast and In Its twelve hundred fresh water lakes are fish of almost every conceivable varlety.from the migratory tribes common to northern waters to the tarpon, pompano, and others of a more tropical character. Nowhere in all our broad land can the angler find a gi eater variety uf game or better sport. Here also the most enthusiastic hun ter finds satiety. Deer, turkeys, bears, panthers and wild cats roam n.t large through the more sparsely settled re gions, while birds of all kinds may be found In abundance throughout the state. The more novel sport of alli gator and manatee hunting may also be indulged in by the more adventur ous tourist. With Its matchless climate, its or ange groves, its rivers and lakes. Its noaling ami bathing. Its fishing and hunting, and Its extensive forests, Flor ida presents unrivaled attractions for the valetudinarian, the lover of na ture, the sportsman and the explorer. To tills attractive state the Pennsyl vania Hallroad compuny has arranged four personally conducted tours during the season of 1897, leaving by special train Janunry '.'G, February !) and 'SJ, aiul'Mml'di It. The first three tour.i will admit of a sojourn of two weeks in tills delightful lund: tickets for the fourth tour will be valid to return until May 111 by regular trains. Rates, for the round trip, $50 from New York, SIS from Philadelphia, and pioportlonate rates from other points.
