Sao'.v iia ', f.ulen: the young of the villngu
g it up a grand sleighing p .ity to a country
tavern nt some dist.in :e, and vile interesting
widow Ltiiik'-'kin sat ia tliu same bleigh, unk'.
uuder the s itne buli'alo as myself.
"(Ji.l oh! don't!'' she exclaimed, n wo
c.u.ie to the lir.st bridge,' catching tue, by tha
arm, an I turning her venel l ice towards
j me, while her little eyes twinkled through
the mo.iailg!,!.
I Don't whati" I asked; "I am uot doiuu
atiyti.-.ng.
Well, I-thought you were going to take
toll," replied Mrs. Lambkin.
"What's thatl" said I. '
'Wow!'' exclaimed til widow, lier clear
laugh ringing out above the tmisic of the;
bells. "Dr. Meadows pretends lie dou't
kuoiy what toll is."
"Indeed, I don't then," I said laughing
iu turn.
"Don't know that gentlemen, when they
g on n sleighing party, claim a kiss as toll
when they cross a bridge Well I never!"
When next we came to a bridge, and t
claimed toll, the struggle of the widow to
hold the veil were not sulheiont lo tear it;
and somehow, when the veil wa removed,
her face was turned directly toward niy
own, and in. the glitturiugof the moonlight
the hoisc trotted on l.imatlf; toll was takea
for the tirst time in his life by Dr. Meadows.
Soon we came to a bridge, but the widow
said it was no use to resist, and she paid up
a we reached it, without a struggle.
''Hut you won't take toll fur every arch,
will you, doctor!'' she asked.
To which tbe only reply was a practical
auiraiauve to the quouou. Did you
