"Hallo, Dowsnt I thought you had

ho met bis friend, Seymour itowen, id
Market street.
"Haven't found a boardinir place to
my notion vet," said Seymour, as be
shook Cliff's band.
"Haven't youT Lucky, now, that I
can tell yea the very place, in ice
folks, nice house, nice tablet Fine
rirls there, tool Ever beard of the
Mortimers 7"
"Horace Mortimer's family T"
"Exactly, lie died about two rears
since, you may remember. idow
purchased a place over on (he Jersey
shore, and keeps boardtirs. Here, I'll
uiye you the address: 'Mrs. Horace
Mortimer, King street, East station.' "
'Thank you. thank you, (JliU ! i ll

"Ob. you'll like iu I stayed there

Tom is gone, you know, aud I have to

lose your heart to Mifs Augusta Mor
timer.
'Na danger I" laughed Bowen.
'I don t know about that! bhes a
beauty, and no mistake! Nobody oau
resist her."
"Then how is It you came off scot-
free T"
'Oh, she wouldn t hare looked at

would not hare done any gnoi. But
there: I must be off. See you when
you come back from Jersey.
tjlill sprang upon an up town car,
and Beymour walked away to his of
fice.
Negotiations in Jers9y were luoress
ful. Behold, then, Mr. Seymour Bow
en coiily established iu Mrs. Mnrti
mer s best chamber, and arranging bis
household gods to suit himself.
"We wish rou to make yourself
quite at home here, said Mrs. Morti
mer. "My daughter is at present ah
sent in the city, but she will return in
a day or so, and be happy in assisting
to entertain you. e always endear'
or to make thing pleasant to our
summer visitors." For Mrs. Mortimer
never used the obnoxious word "board
ers," but always spoke of her risitors.
Mr. Bnweo, baring an engagement
with a friend ii the city, returued be
fore dinner this first day, and came
down to bis boarding-place again by
tbe four o clock Uaia.
The erening was lovely, and Mra
Mortimer's grounds looked inviting
Mr. Bowen bethought himself to take
a stroll before supper, to down he
went intu the garden.
A little summer-bouse at the foot of
tbe enclosure attrated him, aad he
was close beside it before ha saw that
it was already occupied.
A glance showed him a fair girl,
with brown hair and eyes whose color
he couldnot yet see, dressed in a blue
lawn, with collar and cuffs of blue
and white striped linen, her only or
nament a tinr coral brooch for even
the white finger which held tha pen
cil she was us-ng were without nags.
"Ah! the daughter ha returned,"
thought Seymour. "But this is ao
dashiug belle she is more like a
home fairy."
Hearing his footstep, the young girl
looked up, blushed quickly, aad in
stantly arose.
"Pardon me ; I did not mean to in
terrupt you," said Seymour, stepping
forward, with a courteous bow. "The
little arbor looked so pleasant, I could
not resist lis attractions. 1 did not
know it was occupied."
''Oh, you are quite welcome I" said
the young lady, gatheriag Up her pa-
ner and roncil. "I was just going to
the house, anyway."
"I presume I hare the pleasure of
addressing Miss Mortimer, said isow
en, touching his hat again.
She looked up with a glance half-
sad, half mischierous, which 6eymour
could not comprehend, as she answer
ad:
"Not Hits Mortimer I am only
just Lii My sister has not return
ed from town. But rou. I am sure,
are Mr. Bowen." Permenr bowed
again, and eipressing himself pleased
to make Mis Lizzie s acquaintance,
begged permission to. cccnpy bei re
treat a little while.
"Oh, res!" she said, with a bright
smile, lifting the eres which Pevm.iur
now saw were a beautiful browu
"Come here whenever rou plea! And
if you ever want to be wry lonelr and

she rlrew aside a thick screen of mo
mnrdica rines, and showed an Inner
seat quite hidden from outside vie
"Glorious! I shall enjoy this vastly !"
cried IJowen.
"I hone rou will. No one comes
here but me, and I give you free per
mission to take possession," said the
girl.
MARCH 22, 1876.
"The nks I If you assure me I am
not displacing you I"
1 can assure you that. Besides I
shall generally be busy when you are
about the house. I must go now to
help mamma with the supper.
With a little noi or lareweii, which
Seymour returned with a polite bow,
she went toward tha house, tie took
her seat and began to wander why he
had not beard that Mrs. Mortimer had
two daughters.
"1 hough 1 d never mistake this one
far the dashing beauty. Slid is hardly
pretty, but, somehow, she has the most
attractive face I ever saw anywhere."
bo ran bis thoughts until tha tea-
bell smmoned him to the dining-room.
Here he met Miss Lizzie again..
"My youngest (laughter, Mr. How-
en, said Mrs. Mortimer, indicating
Lizzie with an indifferent nod.
Before Seymour could speak the
young girl ema nastuy, "i met nr.
Bowen in the garden, mamma."
And Seymour fancied that there
waa something oi entreaty in ner
glance toward' himself. It certainly
made him lurbear to make tne remark
he waa beginning, about baring sur
prised her in her farorite retreat.
Before many days it became Sey
mour's retreat, too. But he did not
meet Lizzie there again, or anywhere
lee. for that matter, except at the ta
ble, whera nothing more than a brief
word was erer exchanged.
On Thursday Miss Augusta returned
from the city. And as she swept into
the room to be introduced, in a cos
tume which was faultless, Mr. Bowen
acknowledged that she was a royal
beauty, as far as tbe outside went, any
way. But he met ao many of that sort in
his circle that it was almost refreshing
to turn to the simple freshness of Liz
zie, who could not make tha smallest
pretensions to "stye," or to the ele
gant self-possession which would have
aided Miss Augusta to meet the Presi
dent himself, with entire coolness,
while Lizzie would have blushed, nut
tered, and probably been unable to
sneak at all.
After trying to pursue the belle's
acquaintance for a few days, Mr. Bow
en decided that she was hardly so well
informed upon general subjects as
eren his brief acquaintance had shown
Lizzie to be. But he readily saw that
Miss Mortimer s time was fully occu
Died with fashionable society and its
amusements, while Lilzie who seldom
want anywhere except to church, had
time for reading and study.
One evening, about a Month aflei
he went to Mra. Mortimer's, Mr. Bow
en eoutrht hit retreat in Lizzie's arbor,
Soma whim prompted bim to seek the
inner seat, and when, shortly after,
Lizzie herself cam into tbe arbor,
singing a low song as she sat at her
work, ba concluded not to aisiurn
her.
It was rather pleasant to hare her
setting so near, tinging to softly, and
Mr. Bowen was rather enjoying it,
when the sweet roics of Misa Augusta
wat beard, not quite to dulcat a us
ual, aa she said :
"Oh. rou are here, Mist Lul Uat
anybody been with you?"
Nobody nut my mougDis, answer?
ed Lizzie.
"Mamma thought she taw Mr. Bow
en com down this walk," tid Mist
Augusta.
"It must bare betn with the spirit
ual eye, thjin. I baren t seen him
with my bodily ones, laughed Lizzie.
"Qb, well, it a no matter sine ne
isn't here. But I warn you Missy, I
won't allow you to get up a flirtation
with Mr. Bowen."
"I shouldn't know how. You ner-
er gar me lessens, returnea uizzie
with tome spirit.
"It will be time enough for you af
ter I am settled," continued Augusta,
not condescending to notice Lizzie's
remark. "And I mean to get settled
this lime, for Mr. Bowen is immensely
rich, and I nisv not have many more
chances. I am determined not to let
such a fortune slip."
"I would never marrr hira f r that
if I did not love him," said Lizzie,
with more fire than usual in her.
"Well. I would! and perhaps
shall 1 only mind ru keep well out of
my wav, returned Mia Angusta, Ion
ilv, and with that she walked away,
leaving Li trie quite silent, and Mr,
Bowen utterly amazed at what he
could not help hearing. If it had
not been for sparing Lizzie's feelings,
he would have stepped out and con
fronted MiM Augusta b felt just
like doing to. But ht was beginning
to learn some thiugs. and he resolved
to keep quiet a litll longer and
how the enigma would work itself out.
Lizzie sat quiet for awhil. Mr.
Boweu hoed she would not discover
him, and resolved, if ah did so, to be
fast asleep I But before long be heard
her putting up her work to go. As
he rose frem her seat she drew a long,

one to care for, or somebody to cure a
rery little tor me I"
- "Poor, lonely child ! I wouldn't be
surprised if somebody did care for
you I" thought Seymour, as her foot
step died away upon the garden walk.
After that his eyes were eren quick-
er than common to see tha trne state
of affairs, but he did not pay Lizzie
one single attention which could ronse
. . D . . .
Mist Augusta's ire. And though ho
was politely attentive to herself, he
was careful not to let fall word or
look that she could construe into
meaning more than politeness.
At last, however, bis stay at Mrs.
Mortimer's cama to an end. The
morning upon which ha went back to
the city for good, he asked Mrs. Mor
timer for a private interview of a few
moments, which, of course, was readi
ly given
"I hare found your little circle so
delightful," said he. after all other ar
rangements bad been settled, "that 1
wish to carry a part of it away with
me. May I be so bold at to ask for
what I wantT"
"I am sure I could not refuse you
anything," said the lady, bridling and
blushing, but with a gracious smile.
"Then, will you give me your daugh
terf" asked Seymour.
"Oh, I declare, you overcome me,"
cried the tond mother. 'Hut, 1 am
sure, if dear Augusta conseuts "
"Hut, pardon me, 1 do not mean

"Not mean M'81 Mortimer!" echoed
the lady.
"No only Just Lizzie!" said he,
with a bright smile. "

And, having gained her content, he
begged that he might see Miss Lizzie

to work to discover, if might be, tha
