The i wjjole .scene was (( drear and deso - t\ late, and a pale * face pressod' against the win dow-pane looked ® u t upon It wi h vEV VIL i' i sorrowful eyes, seeing in the gloom of the land scape and r-fi- shadowy s k i e - §: :'cHr-1-"-- - the symbol <>l C-V*, v--'; Vi hor future life. 'l'ho face itsell W us not remark able ; there was no special beauty of oui- Une, no dazzling complexion, no soft colored waving hair. It was white and slender, and would have been spiritless t ~ only for tho restless eyes and blood-rod lips. The forehead was broad and thought-impressed, with dark brown halt brushed back and closely braided from the face which happiness might have beautified, but whicli was now undeniably plain, and tinged with the cold gray huo which pervaded earth, air and sky. Annio Raymond stood for an hour looking persistently out, not on the dreary landscape alone, but into her drearier future. Since hor mother's ♦"death, which occurred during her child hood, she had experienced no bitter trials; but little, trifling troubles had .made hor "daily llfo unlovely and un pleasant. The family was large and in very mod erate circumstances; and, like all poor people of th<- present day, struggling to make one dollar show for two, and so appear richer th n they really ure. •Jane, tho older sister, took ciiargo of the house, and ruled tho younger chil dren with a rod of iron. The two girls u-ho came next wore both married and struggling with largo families and pov erty. A brothor next younger had left home- and was seeking his fortune—a Jiopeiess task. Then came Annie, age 21, and then sisters younger still The lather w s a grave, hard-working man. who usually dozod away the time ho spent at home. Anuie's life hud been monotonous en ugh thus far. There was housowork in the mornings and in the afternoons • the sisters sowed for a furnishing stow in the village, barely earning a sufficient suin to clothe them in the plainest ap parel. There had been a time when Annie in dulged in rosy dreams of the luti ir i her life was so monotonous, so lacking in ' Incident, these were soon dispelled. He; older sisters furnished striking examples 8f what her own life would be. Should sho chi|ose, slngle-blessednes and become a cross, unhappy old muid like Jane? or follow in the footsteps of Surah and Sue, and be a sickly, task-bur dened wife, with scarcely an hour s peace nnd quiet? Neither picture looked inviting to a young girl who hail a passionate longing for the luxurious and beautiful things <>; this life, so she grew graver as she went about the same simple, homely ta-ks day after day, and Jane's reprov- j ii>t: voice grated more and more harshly j upon her sensitive ear, until it seemed u if she must cry out like a hurt child under | the pain of her life-burden, and sho was only dumb for very shame. For her sisters seemed happy in acer- | lain degree, and was her life harder lo | bear than theirs? "They never think," she said; "I do; BO j much tho worse for me; but I cannot make them understand how terrible a life like theirs seems to me, it is so ut terly devoid of beauty and even com fort." , But during tho previous winter a ) change came over the spirit of hor dream. George Hastings came to Glenville, and imm her lirst acquaintance with him her life brightened. Ho was only a mer chant's clerk, hut capablo an 1 energetic, and a favorite with his employer. Whon Annio flrst mot him sho only saw a rather small and uninteresting-appear ing young man, who conversed agree ably. AVben sho saw him for the second time she thought he had fine eyes, and before the evening was over she con fessed that his smile was beautiful. Then, as their acquaintance progressed, she found their tastes were similar in many tilings. After this he often called upon her, evenings, and read aloud to her while jhe was busy with her sewing. Num oerless little attentions followed, ren dered in a tender, dellcuto way, and lor a time Annie was supremely happy. George was slowly but surely approach- I ifig a declaration—she was certain of this—and as she thought it over in her nilud, doubts began to creep in where I contentment had reigned. Who loved him so well sho could have died for him, and without him life would ij tie utterly desolate. *But he was very ipoor, with only a small sum as yet laid aside for a rainy day. Would her life, after all her tender dreams, be different from Sue's, or Sarah's, if she married fcim? V. Jane, seeming to understand Annie's dilemma, lectured long and eloquently upon the subject of marriage. ■George Hastings was a fine young man, ohe told Annie, who would make his mark in tho world yet, if he wasn't such , a fool as to marry and burden himself with a wife, A wife was a fearful drag to any man. Single life, for either man or woman, was the only true and noble life to lead; and any woman who mar ried because she was tired of taking car* of herself was a moral ooward. So, pondering UDon Jane's words until s she was nearly demented, Annie stood J looking out upon the clouded skies in the chill November afternoon, and thinking desolately of the clouds hoveriDg over her life-sky. L ' "'.Will it tie always so?" she assed her | A self, bitterly, as bhe turned away. "Oh, 'j I ara HO tired of the clouds of sorrow ! , Will the si'Dhhlae of Joy never come?" A At this moment one of her youngei I [ sisters came in with a letter for Annie. , I Jn svrue surprise—for ft bore a city post mark —she ojiened it. kg With the early heat of suipmer a lad I had come tn board at Glenville, in search j R of country fare and country breezes, fo: j M pie was a confirmed Invalid, Bite took || *°|£log aerosa tho way from Sir-. Ita.i j mond's, and seemed to fuacy Annie from tho first. Bhe now wrote, asking Annie to come and live with lior as nurso and i companion, and offering a sum which seemed princely in Annie's eyes. She decided at once to go, for she longed for a glimpse of the world with out, but she would wait until she saw George in the evening, for his opinion might influence her in some degree. Ho, when he came, she hastened to im part the news. '•Don't go, Annie," he urged. "You know—you must havo known for a long time—that 1 love you dearly. I've only waited to tell you because I had not a suitable home to offer you as yet. But 1 m saving for that purpose overy day, dear, uud wheu wo can seo each other BO often it will not bo so hard to wait a lit tle longer. Stay, and promiao mo you will be my wife just as soon as I can pro vide 'or you properly." "Go- rgo," she said, "you know I love you, but I am too much of a coward to bind myselt to bo a Lifelong slave, like my sister, B'trah, for instance." "Sarah was sickly before she was mar ried, 1 believe," he answered quietly, thongn ills mrUHior betrayed some sur prise at such outburst* from- the usually mikl Annie. "Yes," reluctantly. "And peevish and fretful, too." "Yes, responded Annie, slowly. "You are neither." Annie burst into tears. "Slie was unhappy," she said, "and eo am 1." George was puzzled. Ho used his powers of persuasion to the utmost, but sue was inexorable. She would not con sent to an engagement and sho would 'go to the city as companion to Mrs. Reade. Bo vexed with her obstinacy, 1 but thinking it best to give her her uwu way, since he could not well do other wise, he bade hor good by. Annie sobbed herself to sleep that night, nnd two days after—for there was slight preparation needed—she set out for the city. For a time sho was delighted with her situation. Mrs. Iteade was very cap tivating in manner, and treated Annie uiinost like a sister. Annio had intended t.o save her earnings, but, under Mrs. Beado's advice, she found ample oppor tunity to invest thorn in tho purchase of better clothing than she had over worn before. By-aml-by hor situation became less pleasant. Mrs. Reado was capricious, and sometimes hard to pleaso. Another truth dawned upon Annie's mind about this time. Hor mistress was a neglected, unloved wife, and, though sho hail every ttiiug that wealth could procure, sho was very unhappy, as much as oilhor Buo or Bnrah. Bpring came on, and as the weather giew warmer, Annio began to have fear ful headaclios, a new thing for hor. She grow tired of tho senseless-looking rows of brick and brown stone and longed for the pleasant woods near homo, with their fresh green loaves and early flowers, i- ho felt if she could only have Jane to scold her it would do her good. She grew homesick for the very home she had de spised. Mrs. Reade complained tiiu t she was glowing heedloss and Annio know it was very true. One morning she woke, feeling too ill to rise. Mrs. Reed's bell rang re peatedly, but Annie was too ill to heed it and lay dimly conscious of what wa ll. ixlg aioluld . . :! ah... wore holding a consultation over hor ami afterward that they were removing her to some other place, slielwas far too sick to care where. After a fow days of burning fover lior senses returned, and she found herselt in the hospital, with everything new and strango about hor. As aoon as stie was aide to sit up she procured writing materials of her nur-e, and wrote home. By this time Mrs. Reade had lotiseil horself to write also, and, thoroughly alarmed, Jane set out to find hor, accom panied by George Hastings. George met Annie quietly, but Jane scolded and cried ovor her until Annie felt tiiat her sister really cored uioro for her than sho had ever known. They took her home a shadow oi' her former self, but more contented in mind than she had been in years before. But it was not until she was quite as well as ever and had fallen readily into the old routine of daily labor, that George spoke again of love. Ho came to see her the same as before, and brought her trifles in the way of flowers and hooks; and one evening, when they were sitting in tho dusk and doom of the twilight, with the cloudy November spires frown ing without, George said : "Doyou think, Annie, you could marry a poor man, after all?" "Oh, George V" doprecatingly. "And do you think you are brave enough to bind yourself to be a lifelong slave like your sister Sarah?" "Not to a husband I did not love, and who cared but little for me. That would be a fearful bondage to mo or any other woman." "But I love you and you love me. Don't you think that makes a great dif ference?" "All the difference in the world, Geo-ge." "Then you do not think you could make up jour mind to marry me?" "I think I could If you asked me." "Oh!" with a laugn, and that was all. Not a word was spokon by either lor some time, but he took her hand and drew her silently to his side. At last he spoke: "Confess. Annie," he said, "that you are disappointed. I am not the hero you expected in a husband, am I?" "No," she answered; "but you are a true, coble-hearted man, and that, is better. 1 forgot, In all my senseless day dreams and plans for the future, that 1 was only a woman and a very foolish one at that. You have excellent judgment and sense, but you are just my age, and, not so wise, lam afraid of you. I kuow you have faults, but so have I; aua if you will have patience with mine, I can bear yours without a word." "We ehall have trials, too, dear," he said, "but we shall help each other en dure them, and that wilt make them so much taster to bear. The lesson of the past year has not harmed you, Annie; you will be more contented all your life for it." So at Christmas-time they were mar ried. The finery in whloh Annie had in dulged the winter before, with slight re modeling, served a good purpose as a wedding trousseau. Her father came forward with the spoons and Ihe feather beds, and Jane exerted herself wonder fully. saying it was a pleasure to help Annie, i.i.e was so g.aelul for every thing.

The same gonen.l rule for wrappings that has been ob served for some years past will still hold good. i.ong cloaks are worn for mornings, uud short wraps for calling, excepi when a longclouk is worn for extra pro tection, or over a redingote costume, and is removed before entering the drawing mom. Toques will constitute the prin cipal headwi ar for autumn, particularli tulle toques of all colors. Some are oi the round turban shape, consistently adorned with a crescent on the front. Others are arranged with Mercury wings, or like a hungarian cap. An aigrette, a butterfly, a wing, is sufficient trimming for this small piece of headgear, which it is difficult to take seriously as a hat, although it fills the place of one. A very pretty morning gown of white woolen, with pannels and j-oke of silk embroidery, is shown in our Illustration. As the full green of midsummer foliage disappears so is fashion withdrawing ironi the light yetlow green tones she sc recently introduced. In their place comes a light yollow, a sort of sunshine gold. When combined with black oi white this color is excessively becoming and sets a beautiful complexion off to the utmost advantage. To Be Worn to Cold Weather. To be worn until tho weather is cold are some very stylish Tarls-made dresser for youthful wearers, formed of cream white wools in combination with the new plaited and striped surahs thai have but two colors in their patterns. Orange and olive plaids are novel, also a new shrimp pink, with linden green. Brown and Roman red are combined, the brown a rich golden tint. A firmly woven cream white Ursulino cloth forms a bodice, and long graceful draperies over a skirt of ecru and cafe-au-lalt plaid. The blouse vest is of the plaid, with brown velvet revere on tho wool bodice. With this costume is au Alpine hat ol cream felt, with a plaid ecarf around the crown. A pale, tan-colored woolen dress has a kllte d skirt of plaid surah, the colors of tho silk being a pale shads of tan and a soft shade of beige, with crossing lines of dark brown.
