A case in point, says Doctor Peabody, in his “Harvard Graduates Whom I Have Known,” occurred when Kossuth was making his progr rough the coun- try.

Her frocks were shavby, and none of tiem more so than the one she would be forced to wear if she accepted Frank Gillmau’s invitation. With a | deep sigh she rose from the bed where she had been lying thinking the whole matter over, and turned towards the irs closet wher e all her dresses hung. Reaching into its musty recess Molly drew forth a much bedrabb! ed gray dress and looked at it sad y. Wilen new the preceding summer it had served as a best gown, and in that capacity did enough service to have been placed upon the retired list, but oliy was not as conside ate as that, With considerable ingenuity she Lad transformed the coat lasque into a ‘ow-cut evening waist, and ihe long sleeves iutopretty little puffs. Around the neck she had drape: a little cheap chiffon, and above it her soft white neck had emerged like a lily. Now, however, the dress way ereasel and stained and the chiffon rumpled. She might aitord new chiffon, but that would not cover the stains or a great tear in the skirt. All the other girls were going to have new dres-es, but that was something beyond her scanty parse. “Oh, dear,” she sighed again, toss- ing the dress aside and sinking bak on the bed, “if I were a girl iu a story book I'd have some couvenient garret to go to anl there I'd tind a handsome piano co er, or a ia) mat or a bed- spread, or some thins equally useful, out of which :’d ri uy » a dress that the other girls turn As T am just Moly Pro tiss,a clerk on five dollars a we ek [can’t have a new dress, oh, dea ! oh, dear!” und poor Molly burel { ber pretty face in her hands and | sobbed bitte ly.

For sowe time she had noticed that he had paid her special attention, overlooking litt'e things she said and did, but it was not until she had read bis note, which was awaiting her when she reached home the preceding night, that she realized that he regarded “her with any special favor. When she took up her positicn be- tind the counter and tied her black | apron about Ler waist, Molly saw that Frank's eyes were fixed upon her face, which still Lore the traces of Lier weeping, and she tried to smile at him, bat her eyes filled with tears, The young man noticed her emotion, but was too busy to go over and in- quire into the cause of it for several hours. When he did so she had re- covered her self-possession and merely laughed away his inquiries When Frank received Ler little note, how- sver, he began to understand that something was worrying her and he resolved to discover the cause of her depression.
