Ah Belinda Trips the Stair.
In her cool, dim-lighted parlor, --
Many thoughts come to mc there;
"While I wait to hear the music.
As Belinda trips the stair.
I have come with bold Intention,
Her displeasure I will dare;
But my coward heart beats faster
As Belinda' trips the stair.
I can hear her gentle footfall.
Hear the swish of raiment there.
Coming to me nearer, nearer.
As Belinda trips the stair.
From her step I try to reason:
Does she not, or does she care;
All I know Is, joy is coming,
Aa Belinda trips the stair.

He set down his pipe, smacked Ids thigh,

not loudly for the greater part of that

of Uie third day a smile enlarged his race.
Then he rowed home, anil spent the next
two days after bis wont, the only observa

the shadow of the broad caves, but now
Master Simon ordered the tap boy to carry
It -tut and set it by a rustic table close
to thci-lver's brink, whence, as he smoked
he cobld keep comfortable watch on the

"You'll catch a sunstruck," said Ann,
the cook. "I hope you're not beginning to
forget how to take care of ourse!f."
"Well, I tope so, too," Master Simon
answered, but did not budge.
On the morning of the third day, how
ever, he saw that which made him step
Indoors and mount to the attic under the
cote. Having opened with much caution
a trapdoor in (he roof, he slipped an arm
out and captured a carrier pigeon.
The bird carried a note rolded small and
Ixiund under Its wing with a thread or
silk. Master Simon opened the note and
read:
"ir you love me as I love you
No knife can cut our loves In two"
He had prepared himself for a hearty
chuckle, but he broke out with a pro
fuse perspiration instead. "Oh, this is
hustling a man!" he irgcmlnalcd, staring
round the empty nitlcblea rat bit mi king

"You see. I'm so lonely here."
Some three months after this, and on an
exceptionally fine morning in Septem
ber. Master Simon put Harmony, his
celebrated almond hen. Into her traveling
nanipir. and marched over to the cross
roads to tnfce coach for Illogan. In the
mining district, where the matches ror
the championship cup were to be nown
that year. Now Ann the cook had ven
tured no less than rive pounds upon Har
mony. Five imunds represented hair of
her annual wage, and a trifle less than
half or her annual saving. Thererore she
spent the greater part of the rollowlneart-

It wanted a few minutes to B when a
carrier pigeon came traveling across the
zenith, shot downward, suddenly, and
alighted on the roor. Ann climbed to Uie
trapdoor and put out a hand. The bird was
preening Ills feaihcrs. and allowed himself
to be taken easily.
In lircumstances less agitating Ann had
failed to observe, that the thread about
the messenger ft wing was not or the Kinu

and ri ill wider as she read:

A second messenger arrived toward
evening with word or Harmony's success.
But the news hardlv relaxed Ann's brow,
wh'ch kept a pensive contraction even
when Per master arrived next evening,
and poured out her winnings on the table
from Uie silver challenge cup.
She wore this frown at intervals for
a rortnlcht. nnd all the while maintained
an unusual silence, which puzzled Master
Simon. Then one morning he heard her
In the kitchen scoiriing the tap boy with
all her pristine heartiness. That night,
after mulling her master's ale. she turned
at the door, saucepan in hand, and coughed
to nttnet attention.

Ann" produced the Widow Wflddllove's
note and flattened It out under Master
Simon's pjes. And Master Simon blushed
painfully.
"Are you goln to marry the woman?"
Ann demanded.
"I think not."
"I reckon jon will."
"Well, you see, there's been a hitch. She
