PINK. AND BLUE.
(CONCLUDED.]
One night I took a new book and burred a
'crass the field to the Woods, for I never was
easy till I tow "Pink and Blue" face to tnco,
and then, —why their 1. was not at all easy.—
I telt the deep led blushes coming long be•
fore I reached the house. As soon as I en
! eyed, I felt she was dnt .song. I must .have
nuked blank ; for Mrs, Wood began to ex
plain immediately, that Jane waits - not well,
rod had gone to be I.: nothing eerious; but
she had, thought it bettei for her nut to sit up
L remained and read as usual, but, as ifseem
to toe, to bare walls I hod become so accurs
t wined to reading with Pink and Blue" just
opposite, to watching for the dropping of her
work and the raising of her eyes to my face,
that I really seemed on this occasion to be
reading to no purpose whateser. I went home
earlier than usual.. very Fiber and full. of
thought. My mother noticed it. and inquired
if they were all well at Mrs. Wood's. So I
told her about Jane.
That night my eyes were fully opened. I
was in love. Yes, the old disease was upon
, me, and my last stale was worse Omit illy
first—jest as snitch so as Jane was superior to
Eleanor. The discovery threw me into the
;realest distress. flour after hour I walked
the floor, in my own chamber. trying to rea
lise the love from my own heart —but in vain;
Ind at length, treeing myself on the boil, I
almost thirsted the hour in which I first saw
_the Woods I called myself fool, dolt, idiot,
for thus running my head a second time into
:he noose. It might seem strange, but this
thought that she might care for me, never
ince entered my head. Eleanor's worts in
the sleigh still rang in my ears: never
Imagist that anybody so homely and awk
ward could suppose"---No, 1 must not "swo
t dose." Once, in the midst of it all, I °alined
*fru, took a light., and very deliberately
walking to the glass took a deliberate View
of ray Noosing! figure —but with no other ef
fect 0411 to settle me more firmly in my
wretchedness. Towards morning 1 grew calm.
er. tied resolved to look compOseally on my
aitd (feeble what should be done.
While I was considering whether or nor to
continue my visits at the Woods', I fell asleep
just where 1 hod thrown myself, outside the
bed, in overcoat and hoots. 1 dreamed of see.;
ing -Polk and Wee" carried iitT by some hor
rid monster, which, upon exisinitottion, proved
W_ be myself. The amen sh ink„ltt -my face
woke-me. and I remembered, that I had de
cided upon nothing. The best thing seemed
to ho to snap off the acquaintance and qUit
the place. But then I could not. leave my
mother. No, f must keep where I was—and
it I kept where I was. I insist keep on at the
Woods',--santdir I kept'On RI the Wos.de's I
should keep On feeling just as I del, and Ter
haps more so. I resolved, fittally, to remain
where I was, and to take no abrubt, step.
(which might cause remark.) but to break off
my visits gradually. Toe first week I could
skip one night,—the next, two,.—end so on.—
using my own judgment about tapering..orithe
acquaintance gradually and gracefully to an
itoperceptabie point. The way appearing easy
at last, how that unlosing might he made ea
sy. assumed a cheerful air, and went down to
breakfast. My mither looked up rather aux
lonely at my entrance; but her anxiety evi ,
dearly vanished at sight of my race.
It did trot seem 10 Inc quite right to. forsake
he Woods, that morning ; -tor some snow had
during the night,' an I I. felt it
bent upon recto dig spmewhist about the doors
With my trousers tucked into my hoots. I trod
new path across tee field. It. would have
seemed strauge not to( go in : so I went in and
warmed my feet at the kitchen tiro. Only Mrs
Wood was'iliera ; but I Irl/ttle' Ile inquiries.—
! Not Snowing, what to say, I rose 'to go: but,
'just at that moment(, the mischievous Ellen
icatne rumen rig out of the keeping room and
wanted to know where I was going. Why
' didn't I come in and see Jane? So I went in
to see Jane. saying my prayers as I went—
that is. praying that 1 alight not grow fool
ish again hot I did. l don't believe any
man could of
. helped it. She was reclining.
upon a couch which was drawn towards the
tit Ki r i. — I sat down as far from that couch
to size of the room would permit She look
ed pale and really ill, but raised her bloc
eyes when she said good morning : and then
—thediot flushes began to come. She looked
red, too, and I thought she bad a settled fe
ver. I wanted to say something. but didn't
know what Some things seemed too warm,
others too cold. At last I ihought.—"Why,
anybody can say to anybody, 'How do you
do?' " So I Paid—
.Mi , r3 Wood, how do you this morning ?,"
She looked 'up, surprised F; for,l tried hard
to stiffen my words, and. had .unceeiled adult.
rabiy,
.'Not very well, I thank you, Fir." she re
plied ; but 1 knew , ho was worse than the Jay
before My situation grew OuboaVatile - WWI
roso to go.

When I judged, from the sounds below

I Was to go to Boston in-the stage. and
then take a vessel to New York, whence 1 -

1 arrived at the tavern, the Boston stage Was
just in, and the driver handed me a letter. It
was from the mate of the vessel, saying that
its sailing would be delayeg two days, 'and re-
questing me to take a message front him to
his family, who lived in a village six tulles
back from what . was call d the stage-road. I
went on horseback, - periorined my errand,

to the inn. After supper it occurred to me to

But a moment's reflection convinced me that
I had much better not. But be quiet 1 could

was a moon, but swift dark.clouls were flying
across it, causing.atternate light. and shadow.

I strayeci on through field and meadow, hard

sciounuess that I should find myself nt the end

Never before had she called me Henry, and

desire she expressed for me to slay, shot a

" Jane, how much do you carer!
" A. whole heart full," she replied, in a
voice as low and earnest-he my own.
She was leaning on the fence; I leaned
back beside her, for I grew sick and faint,
