What my parents can have boon think ing about when they branded meat tho baptismal font with tho u:une of Diana I camiot imagine. How were they to foresee that hunting would ever become the one pure and unmixed pleasure of my life? Nothing, I suppose, could have seemed to tliem more improbable; but t the age of seveu-and-twenty I had keen my own mistress for a good many ywtrs, and dad consulted my own incli nations without any morbid disquietude a to what my neighbors might think .bout me. I lived during the greater part of the year at my house, Newton Belby, with my worthy old duenna, Mrs. Bobertson, and 1 had learned how to manage my estate, and I had, 1 believe, conscience as void of offense as that of the majority of human beings. Being pretty well off, I need scarcely ay that 1 had at one time or another re ceived offers of marriage from every eli gible and ineligible bachelor in the eonnty, as well as from a considerable number of London men whom 1 had net during my annual visits to the me tropolis, and if, as Mrs. Robertson as sured me was the case, I had acquired a character for eccentricity, I can only at tribute this to the circumstance that I bad been compelled to decline all these gentlemen with thanks. What may per liaps be taken as some proof that I was not really wanting in common sense was that I had ended by accepting my sec ond cousin, Granville Maitland, but as lie was up in London, attending to his parliamentary duties, I did not bother tny head very much about him during this last bunting season of my spinster hood. It was on a nice, mild, misty morn ing that 1 set off for the meet, riding the old brown mare. 1 had not hunted her at all that season, because, to tell the truth, she was rather too many guns for me when hounds were running, and, to make a further coufession, my nerve was no longer what it had once been. Old Colonel Wharton shook his head when he rode np to say good morning and recognized my mount 1 knew very well what he was thinking; but 1 must say that he had no business to have such thouguts, for never in my life have 1 in jured a honnd. However, he was too polite to put his unflattering apprehen sions into words, aud as we moved along toward the covert side he introduced a yonng friend of his who, he said, was staying with him far a day or two, and whom he hoped to persuade that there was such a thing as hunting in our parts, though there might not be a great deal of uninterrupted galloping. 1 did not notice much about this young Mr. Longfield except that he had a hand some, boyish sort of face and a fair mus tache, and that the colonel had put him np on the roan. So like old Wharton to have given his friend the roan a sly little horse, clever enough at banking, bnt with about as much speed as a cos termonger's donkey. Well, we found at once and had a nice , little burst of about fifteen minutes, fol lowed by a check. The mare overpow ered me, as she always does, but carried me splendidly, and of course I was a little sorry to be caught up by the rest of the field. However, after a short delay, the bounds got upon the scent again, and sway we all went, helter skelter, down a narrow lane into which we had to jump 1 could hardly tell how many people were ahead of me, and naturally 1 did not care, because 1 knew that if I only got half a chance I should soon dispose of the crowd. Only 1 was very anxious to get once more into the open, for those muddy, slippery lanes are apt to be awk ward when your horse is practically run ning away with yon. And presently we came to a sharp turn the very thing that I had been dreading. They all got round it safely except that unfortunate Mr. Longfield, who, I suppose, must have taken the corner too close. At any rate, down the roan horse came, and I was on to hira before I had time to re alize anything more than that a catas trophe was inevitable. It may have been my fault or it may have been the fault of the brown mare which is an other way of saying the same thing; what is certain is that we were both sent flying, and that one of us had a mo ment of great uncertainty as to whether she was in this world or the next. When my head had ceased whirling round, and I had risen to my feet and wiped Borne of the mud out of my eyes, my first thought, as I need scarcely say, was for the man whom I had probably killed, and I shall never forget the sick ening sensation of terror with which I beheld him stretched flat upon his back, his arms extended helplessly, and the two horses, who had scrambled up, standing over him. Four or five men had pulled up, and were ready with the usual senseless suggestions, to which 1 paid no heed. All I wanted to know was whether he was still alive which, to my unutterable relief, I found that he was, though he showed no signs of con- i sciousness. Most fortunately, we were not only within a couple of miles of, Newton Selby, but were close to a pub-: lie house, whither I immediately sent; one of these officious individuals to se-1 cure a conveyance of some kind. Then I dispatched another with an urgent' summons to the local doctor, while thr , ... . .. uiok a Kale oil u imim aul ' plaivd the injured man upon it Ho recovered consciousness befor we ! reached home, but had evidently a very i confused idea of where he was and what j had happened to him I told htm it was j all right, only he nmstnt tilk. Of course I I was by no means sure that it was all j right, I could but hope for the host, and i Mrs. Robertson, to do her justice, be- haved admirably when our melancholy ' piixvssion arrived at the door It was no small relief to me to hear tho report Of rvwy cheeked little Or Howies, who : was soon upon the spot and who made j a long and careful examination of his , patient j "He will pull through, Miss Sol by," ; the excellent little man said confidently "He has had a nasty squeeze and throe ' of his ribs are broken, but so far as I cau i ascertain there are uo internal injuries, j Of course there are cuts and bruises aud j the shock to the system, but those are ! comparative trirles at his age. Ho will ; want careful uursing for a time, though. I'm afraid." . Well, if that was all, his requirements could easily be met. 1 myself know very little about tending the sick, having had no experience iu that line, but Mrs. ; Kobertson was as good as any hospital i nurse, and asked for nothing bettor than ! to be given au opportunity of displaying her capacities. This she did with such ! happy results that in three days' time j Mr. Longfield was pronounced to be out j of danger. There could be no question i of removing him. Dr. Bowles said, and, j indeed, 1 should not in any case have sanctioned his removal to Colonel har tou's bachelor establishment, where he would have had no comforts nor any competent person to look after him. 1 scarcely saw him until he was able to leave his bedroom, Mrs. Robertson be ing decidedly of opinion that it would be improper for me to do so, and being also, I think, s little jealous of any pos sible interference between ber and her , charge. He was a dear, good young i fellow, she told me, and most patient and cheerful, only he was much dis tressed at the idea of inflicting so much inconvenience upon strangers. 1 sent him a message to the effect that I should have been at least equally dis tressed if I had inflicted the incouveui- I ence of sudden death upon him. and as soon as he was well enough to be carried I down stairs to the drawing room 1 made ; him the apology which 1 believed to be i his due. i HJu, but indeed. Miss Selby," he pro I tested, "it is I wbo ought to beg your I pardon. One has no busiuess to fall I down all of a heap just under another j person's nose, and it's the greatest mercy in the world that you weren't more hurt' ! Now. it was obvious that another per ; son's nose had no business to be so : near him when he fell, anil that if she ' Dad had it broken for her pains she i would have deserved little pity, still 1 1 could not help being grateful to him for bis magnanimity, nor could I have help . ed liking him. even if 1 had wished to 1 do so He was very young in his ways, very j simple and natural, and ready to tell me i anything ahont himself that I might i care to bear I learnt that his home was in the adjoining county; that he was the only son of his mother, who was a widow; that he was a barrister by profession, though not by practice, ami that he had ' vague hopes of some day obtaining a lega. appointment from somebody or other It would have, be admitted, to j be an appointment which did not neces sitate much knowledge of law. but he bad been given to understand that most legal apK)intuients answered to that de scription Meanwhile he seemed very well contented to live dowu in the coun try and amuse himself with field sports. I We became great friends, as was only , natural 1 suppum. seeing that our views ' and pursuits were so mnch alike, and after the lapse of a few days 1 discovered , that we bad yet another taste common I in the shape ot love of music My lustrnctors have never attempted to deceive me with regard to ray playing of the fiddle. They are unanimous in : saying that 1 possess bnt an elementary i knowledge of that art; yet they admit that my ear is keen enough to keep me in tune, and if 1 can't do anything won ; derful with my beloved instrument, 1 can at least do the little that is within ' my compass respectably. 1 dare say ; that may have been why Mr. Longfield declared, with every appearance of sin cerity, that be bad never in his life lis ; tened to so a divine a performer. When i be was able to sit np be took to playing my accompaniments for me; so that, : upon the whole, we found a spell of cold : weather less wearisome than frozen out : fox hunters usually do. j One morning be announced to me, with some nunecessary apologies, that his mother was coming over to see him. He said that she intended to take up her quar- ters at the village inn; but that was of ' course absurd, and in response to the tele gram which 1 dispatched to Mrs. Long field 1 received a grateful acceptance of my proffered hospitality. Well, 1 can't honestly say that 1 liked the woman. She was one of those juvenile widows who ' always impress one with the idea that if I they have not married a second time it has been no fault of theirs. She was profuse in her thanks to me for the care that 1 had taken of her son; she vouch safed no notice to Mrs. Robertson; she kissed me a good deal more than 1 liked ' does any woman, 1 wonder, really like kissing another member of her sex? and she dropped hints which were not agree able to me. In short, to put matters plainly, she signified, without ambiguity and with very little delicacy, that, al though 1 was twenty-seven and her dear Jack was only twenty-five, she would look upon an alliance between us as a most auspicious event, 1 was very glad when her engagements compelled her to leave us. She was so kind as to say that 1 she could do so with a mind at ease, be ing convinced that her boy was as safe ; in my keeping as he could have been in ; her own. I Possibly I ought to have told her that he was even safer than she imagined by reason of my engagement to (iranville Maitlap4. Mrs. Robertson was of opin- ( lou thai 1 utixut to have done so, but j really that sort of thing is not so very sasy to say; besides I, liko all heiresses, had had such an experience of match making mot hers that I was little dis posed to show any consideration for thorn as a race. My engagvmient to Urauville was not generally known in the county, so that by this time most of ' our neighbors, including Colonel Whar ton, had begun to scent a romance. The time honored materials wore ready to Kieir hand the handsome young man, the rich young woman, tho accident and its invariable result It was reasonable enough that they should smile and look knowing when they called u inquire; Itid 1 did not think it worth while to mi- ' deceive them Yet they were not deceived. People who take a commonplace, everyday view of things seldom are. and 1 don't know that there is anything very surprising In a disabled young man becoming en amored of a otunparatively young wom an with whom he is brought into con tact all day and every day, oven though she lie a black browed young woman and two years his senior, and im great beauty Kiiviully if yon throw in the fiddle. What. 1 own. did rather sur prise me was the extreme reluctance that 1 felt to administer the requisite dose of cold water to my young conva lescent 1 had never experienced the smallest compitnetiou iu previous crsos of a similar kind, because, of course, I ' was old enough to know that of all mi- happy mortals a man who has been ' crossed in love is the first to find conso ! lation; but then in previous cases 1 had been willing and anxious to get rid of i my admirer, whereas 1 did not at all wish to get rid of Mr. Longfield How ; ever, he soon grew so demonstrative that ; it was impossible for me auy longer to shirk a distasteful task, and one after noon, when be had almost told me in so i many words that he loved me, 1 rushed ' at it headlong perhaps because I oould not trust myself to linger upon the thought of how delightful such an avow al might have beeu to me nnder other circumstances. I 1 walked away from the piano, at 1 which he was sitting, replaced my violin in its case aud remarked casually: "1 am so glad that our musical perform ances have helped to while away the time for you a little. 1 suppose 1 shall have to hang np the fiddle and the bow for good before loug, because my future : husband uulnckily isn't an admirer of uinsia Did 1 tell yon that I am goiug to be married in the spring to my cousin, Granville Maitland? 1 dare say you know that rising politician by name if yon haven't met him." A very long time quite a minute, 1 should think elapsed Utfore he an swered me. but when he did so his voice was under control, though he could not keep a slightly reproachful ring out of it. 1 forget what he said some nonsense, I believe, about the high character which Granville bore, aud his worthiness of the great prize that he had secured. Poor boyl And yet it was ridiculous to pity hira. It would have been a great deal more to the purpose, as 1 could not help feeling after 1 had left tho room, to pity myself, for indeed 1 may as well admit at ouce that 1 loved him. 1 can truly say that I had never loved any man before, and 1 can add with equal truth that 1 was fully conscious of my folly In loving this youth, who was sure to forget me as soon as he should be out in the world once mora I knew that he was really fond of me for the time being; 1 did not suspect him of hav ing been attracted by the beaux yeux do ma cassette, but then I also knew that 1 was twenty-seven, while he was only twenty-five. All the same 1 had very little sleep that night, aud before morn ing I had resolved that everything should ; be at an end between me ami Gran ville. My conclusion and I still think ' 1 was right in so concluding was that 1 ought not to marry him, loving some body else. 1 do not deny that 1 had hopes with regard to the effect of this decision upon somebody else, but I do say that 1 should not have acted other ; wise even if 1 had hail do hopes, and 1 i was well aware that 1 was about to lay ! myself open to the taunt of having fall ; en between two stools. Before break ! fast 1 telegraphed to Granville to come ; down at once, after which 1 made some excuse for driving off to the neighboring county town and lunching there. I wished, if possible, to get the impending interview over before I saw Mr. Long field again. (To be continue'!.) On All Sides Ayer's I'illj are commended as tlie heat rcg ulator of the liver, stomach, and bowels, lir. Thomas Conner, of Centre Bridge, l'a., says: "IIhvIiik long used Ayer's fills with gwd results, I can confidently recommend tlicm above all others." lr. (ieo. V. Spencer, ol Unity, N. II., writes : " I consider AyiT's I'llls far siiwrlor, as a cathartic, to any that are luruislied by the pharmacopoeia." "After suffering for eight years from chills and fever, with only occasional Intervals of rest, I was cured by Ayer's I'llls alone. My case had resisted treatment with Hie usual doctors' prescriptions and a great number of proprietary medicines; hut under Hie Influ ence of Ayer's fills the chills and fever ceased, my liver and stomach were restored to healthy action, and my former good health returned. Ayer's Mils cannot be excelled as a remedy for disorders caused by malarial poisons." S. I,. Harrow, Gordon, Texas. " For headache, Ayer's fills are the most effective medicine." (i. Jtodce, Homer, N.V, " When I feel the need of a cathartic, I take Ayer's fills, and find them to be more effective than any other pills I ever took." Jin. I!. C. Grubb, liurwellvllle, Va.
