FRIDAY -NOVEMBER 17, 1876.
EAUEFOOT.
j 1. don't you remember the old hillside farm.
And the farm-housa with the clap-boards so
gray.
With the garden of roses and sweet pinzs and
oaim,
And the meadows with bntter-euDs cay?
And don't you remember how. ln-doors and
out.
And under the old orchard trees.
The gay, laughing children were skipping
aDOUt
With bare feet, as busy as bees ?
How we have played together, the girls and
the bovs.
And had houses and work-shops and stores,
;;:ig babies and "eartnens," ana just as mucn
noise
As our voices could make out or door:
II ow we loved through the pastures and wood
lands to roam.
To Gather bright mosses and flowers I
Wo thought then, as now, there was "no place
iiKe nome,"
And no home so delightful as ours.
And don't you remember the pleasant school
roaa,
And the school, so sunny in June.
lue lessons we learned, "the marks" that we
"Loea,"
And how we played "plzen" at noon ?
-ar sun-bonnets crumpled, hung over our
necks.
The summer wind played with our hair:
v. hlie the sun paid our laces Us warmest re
spects.
And kissed our white toes that went bare.
How we climbed the steep hillsides as nimble
Anri cvinnM nr tho h in
AVe mlralcked'tue woodlark and wh'lp-poor-
; r'.h. .m.v-h...
We waded the brook when the water was low,
Ana snouted to mane tne woods ring.
Or played on Its banks In the summer's solt
glow.
Light-hearted as birds on the wing.
V au remember the pond where the geese used
io swim.
How we called It the ocean so wide.
And in an old hat that was minus the brim
We sailed our rair dolls on the tide.
And when they had cruised all the wide ocean
mrougn;
And out-done both Magellan and Cook.
AVe drew tnem all home in an old ragged shoe,
.vna cauea it a coacu ride tney loot.
ITow we danced In the mud with our bare.

And played "'twas the Dutch way to churn !"
e mane us mud biscuits and plumeakes so
sweet,
Wltnout any cook-book to learn
How we pitied the children whose stockings
ana snoes
Forbade them to have such fun
While we stirred up our puddings and pastries
una slews.
And left tnem to cook In the sun.

street
She held an open letter in her hand,
postmarked Boston, and cast her eyes
upon it, again reading what sue had
read twice before.
It was from her absent lover ; she had
received it that morning, and it held
glad tidings; for he whom she loved so
fervently was about to make his ap
pearance after an absence of six months.
The appointed time in the letter was
six o'clock precisely, aud as slipglanced
at her tiny, jewelled watch, she saw it
already seven: what could keep him so
long? Surely something must have
gone amiss.
She was vexed at his tardiness, and,
seating herself in the rocking-chair,
satiK back aud fell luto a revery,
She was suddenly aroused by a voice
in the ball.
"Alice, dear, where are you? Cousin
rom is coming Willi some stranger, and
it must certainly bo he for whom you
are so anxrous."
Alice agaiu stepped to the window.
and, looking up the street, detected two
figures coming toward the house. The
dim twilight revealed to her her cousin
Tom, a bright, jovial fellow of small
statue, at the side of whom was a tall
mail, whose high-bred air and majestic
step could be noticed even iu the dis
tance.
She hastily left the window, and. seat-
ing herself at the piauo, began that
popular and ever welcome air, "Home,
sweet home."
Alice was quite an expert at the pi'
ano, and exerted all her effort to put in
her playing all the expression at her
command.
When the two figures heard thesweet.
melodious strains, the taller turned to
bis companion, and, in a voice of tender
reproach, exclaimed :
"I tell you, Tom, if I had uot made
up my mind to try tbis experiment, and
not given my word aud honor as a gen
tleman, 1 would back out now, and pre
sent myseii in my irue colors."
"I nave no doubt but what you
would," said his companion: "but it is
necessary to try this plan, because she
nirts alarmingly with that young Dr.
Lee. Unfortunately he is absent at the
present time, but you will nevertheless
have an opportunity to test for yourself
whether she ever cared for you or not.
JNow don't you make a mistake."
"Be it so, then," said the other, and
they ascended the steps and were ush
ered into the presence of Alice Edwards.
Alice arose from the piauo and came
forward to be clasped in the arms of the
tail gentleman with her cousin Tom.
But she started back in surprise as she
saw a stranger before her.
It was not Gerald Holmes; he did not
nave ngut uair aud whiskers, but black.
curling hair and a dainty mustache aud
goatee,
Her cousin Tom introduced him as
Captain Stellis, a distant friend of his.
Alice bowed gracefully, and laid the
tips of her daluty fingers in the out-

but she said nothing in regard to it, and
answered bis questions with cold po

When she entered the ball to ascend
the stairs to her room, the letter acci-
dentally dropped from her baud, and, as
the steps were enveloped in shadow,
sne couiu uos nnu it iiisiauuy. w nneiior, Mr. Holmes 7"
she was searching for it, she could not
Jhelp listening to the conversation In
which Captain Stellis and her cousin
Tom were indulging.
'Yotf acted admirably, captain. She
never dreams that a wig and false beard
would so fully conceal your identity
and transform you iuto another being,
Quite a change from Gerald Holmes to
Uaptaiu Stellis," Tom was saying.
"Hush, Tom
do not mention that

name," Captain Stellis remarked,
"Isn't she a beauty? I could scarce re-
strain myself from clasping her to my
tireast and telling her all. The little
beautv actually takes me for Captaiu
Stellis. while I really am her lover."
"I'd like to see iter when she Uiscov-laud

"1 shall certainly reward you lu some
way, Tom. I'm clad 1 followed your
advice, since l can scarcely doubt that
any one could restrain himself from
mau ng love to ner." i
Alice had recovered her letter by this
time, and likewise heard the whole f of
we l-uiivl-icuuuii, nun sue suuui uer I
room aud there bust into tears of vesa
tion for being thus duped.
"isut I win teach him a lesson," she
said, "and he shall repent of this
scheme. I'll teacii him to practice de-
sceptiou upon a woman ! Xow for this
letter of falsehood."
She ton open the letter and read
"ZTy Dear, Dear Alice: This letter
will be given you by my most iutimate
friend. L'uptaln Steins. 1 hope that you
will for my sake treat him with cor
dial politeness, and show him what a
perfect lady yon are. iou are prouaoiy
disappointed, dear Alice, on seeing him
in my stead, but I will explain how it
came about that I am not with you at
the annointed time. You know I have
an auut in Virginia. Yesterday I re-
celved a dispatch, just after mailing
vour letter, which bade me come to her
instantly, as sue was not expected to
live over nitiht. I know that you will
justify me in the step I have taken, aud
if everything turns out right I shall be
with vou In a few weeUs, when l
will
will make you, what you long ago
promised to be, the wife of your loving
aud devoted "liEBALD HOLMES."
"There," imperatively exclaimed
Alice, "who ever heard of such deception
in man" Upon my honor,-! leel in
clined to denounce him just now. But
no I will have some fun out of this ar
rangement of his as well as lie, and if
in the end I feel inclined to take back
my word, why I'll do so. So, Mr. Holmes,
you thought me laise to my vows,
she continued, "aud in consequence
thereof have assumed this disguise to
discover my perfidy. All, my fine fel-
low, 1 will snow you woman's courage,
You little dream, us you sit and plot
with your companion, that she for
whom you scheme is at this moment in
possession of all your plans. Ha! ha!"
The supper bell rang, and she de-
scended to the dinning-room, where the
family hail already assembled, among
them the two plotters. She chatted on
gayly as ever, bowing and smiling to
Captain Stellis opposite, not once be-
laying that she knew His secret.
Supper over, the party entered the
drawiiiK-room, Alice all the while mak
ing herselfagrecable to thecaptaiu. He
led her to the piano, and as her small
white hands passed over the keys,
calling forth tiie sweet, melodious
strains, the captain was enraptured.
One day Alice was walking in the
conbervatory, among the rare plants
and shrubs, bhe observed Uantaiu stel
lis at the further end watching the tiny
hshes in the marble fountain, bhe was
quite sure lie had not seen her, and, as
her cousin Tom entered, she resolved to
play a part of her pre-arranged plan.
Tom himself opened the gates for this
resolve.
'Alice," he said, "will you allow me
to give you some advice 7"
"Certainly, if you deem it necessary,
aud if is for my benefit," she replied,
archly.
"I do not like to see you flirt with this
captaiu."
'And why not 7 Why should you
see lit to lecture me on this point" I
am sure he is a very prepossessing man,
handsome, agreeable aud intelligent."
"I have no doubt that he Is, but it does
uot look well for a lady who wears an
engagament ring to flirt Willi a stranger
with whom she has been acquainted but
a week."
"Oil, pshaw ! Tom, you must not al
ways look upon the dark side of tilings.
It will uot hurt the engagement, and I
might as well enjoy myself, since lie
has been recommended to me by Ger-
nl.i I)
Mill.
"But what would Gerald say if he
knew you flirted thus?"
"I mean never to let him know," an
swered Alice, saucily.
'He may find out, for all of that.
What would lie think of you if lie kuew
the true state of affairs 7 I warn you to
be prudent iu the future, aud to treat
the caption with mere civility, aud not
so atleetionately."
"I intend todo just as I please, and if
(jeraid cuooses to bejealnus, let him be
so," and she turned aud left the apart
ment, Knowing to a certainty that the
wuoie conversation had been Heard by
ine captaiu.
Miie next day a telegram arrived for
Alice which told her that Gerald was on
his way thither.
"So he has made up his mind to come
home. Well, I've given him a good les
son, and he will not forget it in a
hurry."
in me evening tne captain took a
sudden departure, stating that he was
unexpectedly called away. But Alice
knew that the next evening would fiud
tiie same man in her presence, minus
the black hair and beard, uuder the
uame of Gerald Holmes.
She calmly awaited events. -The
evening came, aud with it her lover,
Gerald. When the greetings were over.
Gerald asked Alice where his friend, the
captain, was.
There were several ladies in the room,
and Alice determined unon some fun.
"He disappeared last night," shesaid;
i -ami, sineeyou nave asked a question,
allow me to do iiiesame: did you ever
naveairiend by the name of Captaiu
Stellis ? Does such a man exist 7"
Gerald colored, but replied :
"wnat a question : What do vou
mean 7 You are certainly dreaming to
speaic in mat style.'
"No, I am not dreaming, but wide
awake. I mean this: the man of tiiat
name never existed; a wig and false
beard is not a complete disguise."
But this could uot be, and, as he was
compelled to say something, he an
swered :
"Explain yourself, Alice ! You speak
iu riddles."
"It is useless to deny anything, Mr.

"Why, to leadvmrto the altar as mv

"Very well; you areinot in a hurry?"

"I am perfectly aware of that. Butit

With that, she left the room.
Gerald expostulated, but all in yaln,
as lie devotedly loved tills capri-
emus oeauty, lie had to succumb uum

When the time had elapsed they were
married, and Gerald advices his com
