Tihe suniier vacation!
What a world of changes it I hings to
the inlnlocent .yonilig school girl--what a
rovolution of thoughlt, IF:t alrl fiiey
Ji all one fitnure, will ever the weeks
come to us, ga;larulidl with roses and
radiant with the fancies of the leairt, as
tley caue to ius ill tihe days of our smnl
mIecr vacations .
That witas what Elsie ID)ale was think
ig, is site satl, beside the river, dlipping
her water-lily bands in t!he cool tihde, and
watching the birds' lists ill the rushes.
She was holneless land motherless, alnd
all the other girls were full o) happy
auticil)ations, as they clostred out the
grteeu spot of shadow iliudler the giantI
ollin troe. And yet, beneath it all, there
whi a thlhrob orf exultation i her heart.
'I ail to have i seasonI at Saratoga,
:lid Cynthia Vail, the beauty of the
school. 'Mauanlan says I ati yolug, but
then very young girls are all the faishion
iiow.
'I aim to go to the Adirondacks with
papalli, to take sketches, andi strengthen i
noy lungs,' said Mary Allisoni, plroudly.
'I aln to have music lessons froni Si
guor tRallentaiilo!' trinumphantly Ipro
chlilned little Bell H orton. 'Tell us,
Elsic dearl, whatl are you going to dol"
'Exactly the opposite froi you, lioll,'
said Elsic, laughing, while the dimples
c:eii, into herli chin and Ihi- canniin color
into hie cheek. 'I shlallspetul lily vaea

of eve.iiig till, Elsic Dale was (l l' her

She had ineeir bien out of the city v

"'lole for Old Ladies," anId the sub
linle crests of thie' 'verlastilng hills were t
s 1tw -as thly were delightful to her. 1
CGlhis, cascades', wild gorgesb , amid ldeso- I
latec ravines, clrthed with the black
grcen growth of pines aand cedl'rs, sc
ceeded one anlothler inl bewildering tr- i
ray-anll the monutain stage was ac-.
tullahy at the door of Mlount iorel before
Elsi realized that she was nlomre than
lialf way oni her jo(lurnlcy.
It \vas a tine hiuuusiwo,ito a crntral
tower of blue stone and two long, low
wings, situated upon a level plateau on
the' hill-side, with a wall of almost Ior
pendicular mountain at the rear, and a
sup,. rbl view extenldin to the south.
Au old colored srvant luau, wi'th.,i OAl
is white as snow and a suit of genteel
black, tcaue to the door.
"Is M1rs. Sorel at. home P" Miss Dale de
laul"ndedl, with what dignity she might
ca In ulld.
"'Yes, Iulis., de missis she's home,"
briskly aniswered tihe sable servitor.
"Tell her it istllthe usic-teacher,"said
Ellsi.
Atnd the old natn ashowed her into a
'retty little apartIent, lhng with aiti
uque chintz aud sprinkled with trees and
butterflies in colors that would have
driven a naturalist wild.
A tire of some scentel wood blazed on
a low marl;le hearth, and was far from
disagrealle and the chill mountain
heighlts, Augustl even though it ,was.
I'rselntlly a stunt lady, in blak silk
utI thIt tering caup-strings, came hurry
ing in.
"(ioodllness gracioltls lie !" ejaculated
the slile lady in black; "there's Home
mistake!"
Elsic r,e, up and dropped tan alarmed
courttsy.
'"l'here's Io i).stake, tna'ani, I think,"
said slite.
"lint you :r'e a child!" said Mrs. Sore!.
"I aln 1.#, nIIa'amit," said Elsie.
"I wtrot Mine. I)ne lesihc.ll.
"Mlne. Duehcswe coul d notr come,"
said llsi, ;fetling her Leanrt-throls begin
to accelerate. "I amt her favorite pupil,
and she wast convinced that I could rep
resent her. Didn't you got her letter?"
"I have received no letter,'' said Mrs.
Morel, still viewing Elsie through her
eye-glasses, as if she were some sort of
an unaccounitable raa (Iris.
'flthei einsued another embarra:ssing si
lence, whirch Elsio Dale felt Iltst he
broken at all hazards.
"If you would be so good ais to ittrti
ducte ime to my pupil," said she, "I
think-"
"Oh, certainly," said Mrs. Sorel, wit
a little hysterical laugh, "I will intro
du'ce you to your pupil!"
And openiing a docr which slid gently
back under ipruicres of pink-anld-blue
chintz, she led the way into a study
lined with books, where, by the soft light.
of a shaded laimpi, sat a dignified gentle
wati o(131, ltusy over aI heap of miau
serpl.
"Mvy sn, it, I ile rector of the parish,"
said she. "lRudlph, allow Ite to intro
ducte you to Miss Dale, who has comen

The dignitied gentleman rose anlld
bowed.
Elsie nili as if she could slide, itvisi
ble, tthrough a crack in the floor'.
"'tlldolphl has had every tIusicail ad

Mrs. Scre; "hut Madnine Dul)cithesie has

Elsie colored like a rose.

Here Ellsic, llitc fiorgetfuill of her dig

'If I could earn aily botirdl iii thalit way,'
Elsie saaid foeebly.
'Yol, cailt io a great deal tmolre thali

visitor needs a n clip of tea.'
lHospitable Mrs. ortel tllitdl hIstC. to

Mrs. Sorel sutiled wisely.
'Notlhing would harve induced him to

'Rudolph is truth itself.'
So Elsio stayed at Mount Sorel, going
