HER LOVER. It was very kind of Mrs. Grayley to , try and give him an opportunity to plead his suit to her pretty, willful daughter. "Was it not for that purpose she had gone away and interviewed her maids in the kitchen. And when Etta followed her thither, insisting on her return, liad she not discovered that • some of her carnations wanted tying up, j and trotted out into the garden to at- , tend to them? But it was to no purpose that the good lady— more compassionate than j her daughter— took pity on the young fellow, whose unsteady lip and anxious blue eyes showed but too plainly the depth of his feelings. Etta tacitly re- , fused to be wooed, and when he pleaded for a hearing she shook her head and kept so close to her mother's side that at last lie heaved a great sigh and took j his leave. Then Mrs. Grayley put down her gar dening gloves and scissors and turned , upon the cruel maiden indignantly. "l am ashamed of you, Etta! Have j you no feeling that you treat an old friend in this way? Boor Dolph Ern stein deserves better usage." "Let him come as a friend and I will receive him gladly, but you know. • mamma, that lie will not be content with that." :7 ■■-.■, :.•'. "Yes." retorted Mrs. Grayley, "I do know that for years, he has liked you , and cherished a hope that some day you would be his wife, and you encouraged that hope-"' "Oh no. mamma' never!" "But I say you did until I was silly enough to.be persuaded to give you half a dozen terms at a finishing school*' j "College, mamma," Etta corrected. "Call it what you will. 1 regret thai 1 1 ever let you go to it. Yon went a sim- I pie, sensible girl' eager to study and im prove yourself; you came back to me self-absorbed, sentimental and silly." '•Mamma!" •■ "My dear, I am sorry to say (his; but it is too true. You managed to get into ! a set of idle, excitable girls, who im- ' bued you with all their own extravagant ideas. Instead of being a loving, in- , telligent companion to me, you are al ways dreaming or reading what you call (esthetic poetry, and 1 should designate as trash; and as for the Ern steins, you have affro ted Lolla and ' Meta with your coldness, while Dolph— j if lie were wise would think no more ; of you." :', ' Etta grew crimson with mortification. To be lectured so sharply by the dear | indulgent mother who had hitherto j been so patient, with her, was bad enough, but to be threatened with the loss of her lover, as if it would be a se- j lions calamity, hurt her pride. "Mr. Ernstein cannot accuse me of | flirting with him: and 1 have told him frankly that I do not wish to marry."' "Why?" queried Mrs. Grayley. "That is a curious question to come from you. 'mamma. Are you in such a i hurry to get rid of your troublesome daughter that you would give me to the ! lirst who asks my band?" "Never mind what I would or would nOt do," was the grave retort. "For that lam answerable to my own con- i science. But answer my inquiry. Why do you not wish to marry Adolph Ern- j stein? Have you heard anything to his I disadvantage'"' ;. "(lb. no, ho! Every one knows that he is the best of sons and brothers." "That ouly responds to my second i question. Now for the first. _bu con fess that you do hot dislike the young man: you have, long been aware that he I loves you with all his heart, and that I his parents are quite willing to receive j you as their daughter? One of your motives for going to college was to im prove yourself ; in German, because it was their native tongue; yet now you refuse their son's proposals, and 1 ask again— why?" "1 am very happy at home with you, mamma," faltered Etta, letting her head droop that she might avoid the piercing scrutiny of her mother's eyes; but, quickly conquering her emotion, of which she was ashamed, she raised her self to her full height and looked Mrs. Gravley boldly in the face. "i will not stoop to prevaricate. I could have liked, perhaps loved Dolph, if we were not so diametrically opposed to each other in thought, sentiment and feeling, and— and if he were not in trade!" Mrs. Grayley raised her eyebrows. "Please to remember, Etta, that your father was only a struggling country practitioner, yet he was a gentleman; I and so is Mr. Ernstein, although lie is in business. Moreover. I must remind you that my anility dies with inc. and my small savings "will not amount to a sum that will place you on an equality with the upper classes. As for the Ernstelns, they are well-to-do; they keep a handsome establishment, and a country house. If you were Dolph's wife you would have" — But here Etta Interposed, crying hys terically: "What could they give me that would atone for the horrible fact that they are tailors? Oh. mamma, to be known as a tailor's wife; how could I endure it?" . Very deliberately Mrs. < Irayley picked up her scissors and drew on the gloves she bad thrown aside. "Pray wipe your eyes, Etta; your tears are quite uncalled for," she said, coolly. "1 begin to agree with you that Dolph lias made a mistake. The girl j who despises him because lie manfully does his best in the state of life in which he was "called cannot be worthy of his love, and I j shall do all in my power to induce him to forget you!" Etta walked away, writhing under the sarcasm of her mother's tones, and en tering the house ascended to her cham ber, where, though not given to contem plating her own charms.she stood before the cheval glass gazing at herself in mournful musing. If Dolph had been a professor or a poet— if he had shared her enthusiasm for the transcendental— if lie had pos sessed the merest spark of romance in bis composition, she could not have treated him so coldly, but— "1 should have been thrown away upon him!" she cried, passionately. "He has no soul! .All my aspirations would have been dragged down to earth by his grosser materiality, and I should have been a most unhappy woman, pitied by none, for who would expend any sympathy, on the wife of a tailor?" Then Etta sat down, and opening her desk, wrote a little letter to her rejected suitor. . - : -7 "They were wholly unfitted for each other," she told him; "their minds were not tuned to the-same chord; they must be content to dwell apart till, snaking off the bonds of earth, they soared into that higher life where they should be able to undcrstmd all that now- was dim and misty and incomprehensible." Etta was rather doubtful whether Dolph would comprehend this last sen tence; she was not quite clear about it herself, but it sounded well and was written in her best hand; so she ad dressed it, and resolved to take it to the post at once, lest that reluctance to give him pain she often experienced should withhold her from posting it at all. When dropped into the box Etta thought she should feel relieved, but she did not; and, unable to risk another encounter with her mother, she strolled past the cottage and wandered, down a leafy lane, where few came at noon but herself and the birds, and she could re cite her .favorite verses from -Oscar Wilde and Tennyson without fear of being overheard. " 'Oh. heart, how is with thee now." *.' quoted Etta. "Is this yours?" breathed a low voice in her ear: .'*-. With a start and a blush she turned to find a stranger beside her with a flower in his hand— the lovely yellow Marechal Niel rose Dolph Ernstein had brought her: the exquisite blossom she had pinned in her brooch- so carelesely that it had fallen and its delicate petals had made acquaintance with the dusty road. CHAPTER 11. HER PROMISE. Etta was not as grateful for the resto ration of her flower as she might have been, yet she thanked the stranger with a smile. He was young, lie was well dressed, and spoke in a subdued and pensive tone that pleased her. lie had seen the rose fall from her dress, lie said, and had hastened to snatch it up before any clumsy foot should destroy the beautiful creation forever. "1 speak of it as a living, breathing essence," he added, "for 1 am a humble adorer of nature in her finest forms. At home 1 live in an atmosphere of the sweetest odors flowers can breathe over us. In my mind each distinct perfume associates itself with some one or other of my friends. Perhaps you'- will con sider my theory fanciful, but do you know 1 should never have coupled, you with the rose: it is too prononce for you. Something more refined, more subtle— for instance, the wood-violet. But pardon me! 1 am running on as I always do when 1 get a sympathetic listener, and detaining you shamefully.'! He drew back, and Etta, with a bow and another and more gracious smile, passed on: but there was a gate just be yond, and her new acquaintance sprang forward to open it for her: then breathed an apology for his officious ness on on learning that she was not going to cross the fields. ..■ ■•'.*< -*- Yet, promptly though he excused him sell, he strolled by the side of Etta to the end of the lane; and if she only an swered his remarks on the beauty of the spot in monosyllables, still she did answer him against her better judg ment. But then, he was no common man; the delicately white hand be passed across his brow, the rings she saw on his fingers were surely unmistakable tokens of high birth. Besides, • lie talked— how lie talked! If Dolph were but able to converse with such fer vid eloquence.! . lie, poor fellow, could discuss commonplace subjects sensibly enough and had read scores of books into which Etta had only dipped; but when he discussed them how sadly he lacked the grace of manner and thrilling accents of this stranger! With what a sigh lie -raised his hat in respectful farewell when, in great con fusion lest her mother should still be in the garden, Etta hurriedly left him. and how ashamed she felt of Having loitered so long! What would Mrs. Grayley say if she ever learned that the . daughter she had reared so carefully, and on whose prudence she thought she could rely, had suffered herself to he drawn into conversation by a plausible stranger? -it must never happen again!" Etta protested to herself. "It was delight fully romantic, ami of course there could be no danger in enjoying the so ciety of so intelligent a man: but then mamma's prejudices must be consid ered." ;-77 7 However, it did happen again. Every lonely ramble in which Etta in dulged brought her in contact with the interesting stranger. She loved noplace so well as the shady, secluded lane be yond her mother's cottage, and he said the same. His name was Albert, lie told her,' and lie was a scion of the illustrious French family of the Montemorencies. his in tense love of art had brought him to London; his adoration of nature had led him to this charming neighborhood, where— lie looked tenderly at his blush ing companion— lie had passed hours of the most unutterable enjoy ment. r : ; "A\-: "You're an artist?" said Etta. "Not a professional one. My sketches are for my friends and myself." "1 beg your pardon," she murmured, "I did not mean to imply— to infer*' But here her embarrassment made her pause. :'i'yty s "My dearest Miss Grayley, you could not offend, however much you might misunderstand me. But why did you start when 1 spoke your name? How could 1 resist inquiring what the world calls the nymph who haunts these ver dant shades! But do not imagine that I was incited by coarse, vulgar curosity. The interest you have inspired" "1 must go home!" cried Etta hur riedly. "Mamma would be displeased if she knew that I— 1" '.".77 "If she knew how strangely, yet how sweetly, you and 1 have drifted into ac quaintance? Ah! take me to her, and if she blames me 1 shall smile and say, "Be as angry as you will, you cannot rob me ofthe dear delight of knowing your daughter; of having looked into her soul and learning that it throbs in fullest response to mine!'" 7 '-- " 07. "Mamma would say we were both mad!" and Etta laughed hysterically. "Then she has the cold English nat ure perhaps. How you must have suf fered, with 110 one near to think ant) feel with you!" "I must go home," said she again. "It is scarcely a week since we first met, and for this imprudence you must despise me" "Say rather adore you!" lie interrupt ed. "But do not be alarmed; 1 approve, I admire your delicacy and 1 will emu late it. 1 will not go with you to Mrs. Grayley to-day. My aunt, the Com tesse de Trouville, comes . to town to morrow from her villa at Cannes. I shall meet her at her hotel and lay bare my heart before her. 1 shall beg her to come here and effect an introduction to your excellent mother, and, with her scruples satisfied, what an ocean of bliss expands before our enraptured eyes!" -.•... '"But if la comtesse should object?" urged Etta, trembling and confused at this sudden declaration. . "Why should she? You are yourselves of la haute noblesse!" "Oh, no! there is a Viscount Grayley, but we are not related to him, and mam ma's income dies with her." Mr. Montmorency laughingly demand ed why she had added this information? His aunt was a great stickler", for eti quette and would scold him for having presumed to make a young lady's ac quaintance in such an unconventional fashion, but she was not mercenary and when she saw the flower-like face that must be his excuse, she would cease to be surprised at what he had done. "Anyhow 1 must not come here again," said Etta, gravely. "1 have done very wrong in walking this wav so often." But she let the gallant Montmorency kiss her hand having begged her to make arrangements for Mrs. Grayley to be at home to receive the comtesse — he left her; pausing at the top of the hill to wave his handkerchief and press to his vest a sprig of myrtle-ie had in duced her to give him. "I wish you would not ramble so far away; you look heated and tired to death !" complained Mrs. Grayley, meet ing her daughter in the garden. "It shall not happen again, mamma. I— l have had an adventure! A romance lias stirrecTand dissipated the monotony of my life; but don't question 7me as. to its nature yet. -After 7. t0-morrow you shall know all." -■"■ - : :.'

"regret, she came into the drawing room, and furtively watched the hands of the clock till they . pointed . to the hour at which the comtesse was to appear. She had spent a long time at her- • toilet, putting on and taking off one i gown after another. This was too sim ple; she must be well dressed in defer ence to the rank of the visitor; that was too fussy,' and might be contemned by the critical taste of a Parisian. : ■ At last she fixed on a ■* modest gray silk, and with a bundle of white and pink flowers at her throat, and. her color coming and going with every passing thought, her glass told her that she ' looked her best. - Wearied with the heat . and a morn ing spent among the poor of the village, , Mrs. Grayley lay back in her armchair and slumbered; while Etta, having ad-, ministered a few dainty touches to her geraniums in the epergne and the orna ments on the table, picked up a book to while away the time. .*: 7l But it dropped from her fingers as if it had a sting in it, for on the title-page she saw the name of the donor— Adolph Einstein. During this week of excite ment she had sedulously banished him from her thoughts; why could she not do so now? ■ Against her will she found herself comparing the two men who loved her, and she trembled as she did so. How little she knew of Albert Montmorency! how many instances she could recall of Dolph Einstein's integrity and nobility of character! 7-7 7-:: Such an Adventure as this would never have Happened to him. Was it because lie had no tendency to romance, or because he would never induce a young girl whom he loved and respected to transgress the rules society lays down for her guidance, and '.'deceive .-'her mother? 7; -.7 .t=v ; That dear mother. What would she say when she learned that her child had been meeting a stranger, not once only, but day after day, and permitting him by his looks, his gestures, his bursts of poetical quotations, to tell her he loved her. . **• Etta wrung her hands. "It has been wrong— all wrong! 1 feel degraded in my own eyes; what shall I be in those of mamma and his re lations?" - .. But she was spared the ordeal she now dreaded. intensely, for the Comtesse de Trouville never came. At first Etta made excuses for her. She might have been detained at Paris, or she might have felt too much fa tigued with her journey to be equal to another. Yet, whatever might .have been the cause of her non-appearance, why did not her nephew come or write? M. Montmorency did neither; and Etta, ashamed and miserable, ceased at last to expect it. • ; At times she assured herself that some dreadful accident must have be- , fallen him; or his relatives, finding she | was neither wealthy nor well born, bad . interfered; and then she pitied herself and enacted the part of Mariana in the "Moated Grange," growing paler and more hollow-eyed -with her fasting and moping, till Dolph Ernstein, alarmed for her health, aroused Mrs. Grayley to a sense of the danger of letting this con tinue. The now anxious mother carried her, much against her will, to London and to a physician, who prescribed cheerful society and a simple tonic. • Ashamed of the uneasiness she had caused her mother. Etta endeavored to atone, for it. She could not bring her self to confess the cause; it was her secret, she would pensively murmur— the one sweet yet sorrowful romance of her youth— and no one must know that in her soul she would cherish for aye the memory of Albert Montmorency's adoration. Her favorite songs were still '•Some Day* and '"He Will Return, 1 know He Will,'' and she sang them with a patlics very puzzling to Dolph Einstein, who had made her indisposition an excuse , for renewing his visits, and whose eyes often told her that she was still dear to him. :.■;■' -y.'-'.'x. Partly to avoid him, Etta started one morning to do some errands for her mother. There was the physician's prescription to be made up at the chem ist's, not far off, and thither she bent her way. The shopman handed her a chair, and she was counting the list of purchases she had- to make while, he was concocting the draught, .when a door opened, and against her will she became the auditress of a half-whis pered conversation. - - "Oh, here you are at last! What a time it has taken you to go as far as street! But I suppose, Master Bert, you stopped to flirt with my lady's maid." -A A :-;.. TSAA "Psha! I've . better game in view than a red-headed coquette," was the reply. ::•:*.; . "So you said when you thought that Mine. Trouville, who was old enough to be your mother, might be persuaded to ry you; and so you thought when you borrowed my best suit of clothes to go courting Viscount Grayley.'s pretty relative— and what came of it?" "Didn't I tell you that 1 was duped in that affair; and didn't I give it up as soon as I found the dear child was pen niless? Heigho! How she idolized me, to be sure "Sli! there's some one in the shop waiting for this draught; give it to her, will you?*' And the next moment the delicately white hands of Albert Montmorency were tendering to Etta the neat little parcel. 'A-y-A' ".■'. "Can we do anything else for you, madam? Allow me to show you some of our perfumes; we pride ourselves on the excellence and variety of our per fumery." But here he stopped, for Etta flew out of the shop, leaving her tonic . behind her, thankful that the thick veil she, *■ wore had prevented a recognition. A- • C I The first thing she did on reaching home was to burn half a dozen withered flowers and a portrait from memory of the adored one. Oh, that she could! have effaced at the same time all rec ollection of the credulity that now made her tingle with shame and long to hide herself from every eye! . Mrs. Grayley has never learned what lias brought about such a pleasant change in her daughter, making her as sensible and unaffected as of old; but into the ears of Dolph Ernstein, when " he once more asked Etta to be his wife, a confession was poured lie will always hold sacred. He knows that she lias at last learned to value his patient devotion, and sur rendered her heart to his keeping; that she will be the best of wives; and he can afford to forgive and help her forget the girlish folly that has cured her of sentiment and romance forever. . si . Desperate" Fight - With a Bear. Pezon, the wild beast tamer, was, says a Paris correspondent, near being killed recently by a black bear. The menagerie was at Chalons-sur-Marne, and he had just entered the bear's cage to put it through its usual exercise when the animal pulled him down on the floor. The spectators were seized with panic. Some lied out of the menagerie and others screamed : but Pezon's son at once entered the cage to rescue his father,' though? the young man was with out any weapon. He attacked the bear with furious kicks, which had but little or no effect, and he would probably have failed to save his .-father, and perhaps have himself fallen a victim to the bear, if a soldier, who was one of the specta tors, had not drawn his saber and handed it to young Pezon through the bars of the cage. With this lie stabbed the bear. At the first thrust the infuri ated animal left the elder Pezon, and, standing on its - hind legs, tried to hug the son. The latter, however, plunged his weapon several times '. in the bear's stomach. The animal was not then, however, killed.and continued pursuing his adversary. In the, meanwhile the young man's father had got up and left the cage. The contest was at : length ; put an end to by one of the men em- ' ployed at the menagerie fetching a gun loaded with ' big shot. Firing in the bear's face, both his eyes were blinded, .' and young Pezon .was able to make his * escape out of the cage. His father was not dangerously injured, though two of his ribs were broken.
