for bot ie flowers there are some lovely buds jtrf ready to open on that creamy white roi e- bush yon admired so much last eununei lola opened her bright eyes ia mo k astonishment a roaehnah of that color would enough to set any one wild mrs fannii if the leaves are white do tell me what t ie blossoms are green j mrs fanning had looked slightly puzzl d as lola began hat she shook her linger it her playfully at the conclusion of h r speech you little mischief to turn a venerabj grayhaired woman into a target fun y u know my meaning well enough she sai l lulu touched her slight lingers loving y to the soft waves of dark hair bandid smoothly away from mrs faniiinga for j- head j i shall scold you if you call ourw ii old why i could count the white hai s in your head they are so few and far b s- tween and you are not a day over fort v old indeed well dear have it as you like as lot g as you make haste and cut me the flower l vou shall arrange them too if you wi as they are to make a nck gentleman s room attractive and i want them to lot k very pretty oh mrs finning who is he m kot another word will i tell you lul i until yon have done my bidding ah how peremptory i can be laugh d lulu catching up the basket and scissor and vanishing with a gay soug trilling npc n her red lips j mrs fanning listened to her with a thoughtful look upon her face lulu wt s her adopted daughter and

or not to introduce her p t imla to this joang protege of hers bi t his sudden appearance on the scene vouj d necessitate it or another moment ax i lulu and her flowers would be there too how do you

alone horace welby looked np at the sound tif the clear girlish voice and saw a pictu e which was forever after to bs enshrine i within his memory it was as bright t s the most vividhoed painting and as perfa t in detail as though colored by that maate artist the sun a tender oval face with smiling la troas eyes opened o their full width i a surprise red dewy lips a wealth of ahi hi g hair a slight dainty figure with two white hands holding a basket brimrnii over with creamywhite half opened roa s this was the picture and what did lulu see a pale handsome face lighted by eyes i o large and dark that the heavy black ey browb arching bove them gave them weird intensity of expression which wt s increased by a contraction of ithe i orehet d into a slight frown a fascmating fac but a gloomy one lulu found her ey s returning to it again and again when si e could do so unobserved what could ha i cast such a shadow over it so yaun bcaroely older than herself j and yet le looked so unhappy come in child this isi mr miss marlow horace j one would hardly have recognized ti e playful xhildish lulu who ibdt a fev moments before hod been uudhgwith mi j fanning in the qoiet

had dropped fro a tcloaou yhdqtelltneabpihim welb qom0 to thoogh to bydtdit als mmrn t howi one question at a time lulu i you please and then you maybuooeed in getting an aubwer i will explain why i said nothing to yon about him he is very handsome and can be very attractive but a young girl who should set her heart upon him would be laying oat for herself a life time of sorrow and my lulu laying a caressing hand upoij the girls bright head is so dear to me that i hesitated about in troducing her to him bat forewarned is forearmed and ft is for that reason i en lightened you as to what he really is horace wel by is a man intended by nature to be ono of tho nobloit of lilt kind but who through a mistaken mode of education was thrown among companions that though good follows in the opinion of the world have really boon wicked designing plotters trying to ruin horace to as to bring him upon a level with themselves poor fellow sighed lulu wjth tears rising to her blue eyes where was his mother r father and mother died when homcowns a more lad leaving a large fortuno to their only child r who had far better havfi botyi poor hut how docs fie coma to be here under your nf t tint

feeling of intense wwduess tlutt one o nobly giled as he seemed to be should have fallen a victim to intemperance heveral times 1 exerted myself tojbp him- by me when tho wine was passingeely round at the sapper given at some magnicent en tertainment where to use a stereotyed ex pression champagne flowed like water in that way i grew to feel an interest in him well one evening about three weeks siace jast as i was leaving my carriage after attending a wedding reception i saw a prostrate farm lying within a few feet of the horses hoofs i called io thomas to eee who it could be and to signal for a policeman if necessary laws maam 1 he said coming to me after he raised up the mans bead so as to get a glimpse of his face laws maam its young mr welby shall i call a cop maam or hadnt i best put him in the carriage and james and mell take him home kow lola said mrs fanning hi not tell you of the quixotic thing i did unless you promise not to laugh at me and also never to mention it to any one i promise said lola sof tlv emphas izing her words with a kiss but please go on i want to her the end well lola i had him brought into my louse and put into henrys room and i made np my mind that as faithfully as hough it bad beeony own harry would i nurse him and try what i could to reform him j lulu threw her arms about her friends neck j you are on angel i always knew you ivere and now i am- sure well im positive be could not resist you no one can i ah child i fear ii i had foreseen what ay before me i should have shrank from it in dismay he awoke out of that stupor in a wild delirium they call it the horrors and anything more dreadful cannot be imagined i believe one who goes through it suffers all the agonies of the damned j then at last under dr olmsbys tkillful treatment he came oat of that stage of the disease only to enter upon another thelonging forliquor then was my time i talked to the poor fellow using every argument i could think of which might touch his neart and save him i pictured to him his mother her home in heaven incomplete without him her only child i read that passage in the bible where it says ho drunkards shall enter into the kingdom of heaven after each conversation he would be so moved as to cry and lulu you cannot picture a more painful sight than tears trickling down upon a bearded face then tiha long ing for the liquid fire would come and he would beg that lie might be boned hand and foot and locked into the room so that he conld not escape and get ajsght with wflsch to satisfy the horrible craving and thus begin again the struggle and lulu we have to all uppsaranoe conquered j you bsw horace pale to be sure and with a morbid gloom upon that brow which should be as smooth and fair as your own for he is but a few years older than you are but he has not tasted liquor and says ie will not ever again so help him god bat t fear for bim lulu when he again mingles with his gay associates- i dont says lulu there should be no such word as fall in your mind after having done such wonders and now be a darling and dont pucker up your brows and say no i am roihg to help you and tm a host in myself you know mrs fanning smiled as she looked at the animated face which beneath all its witch- ery of smiles still told of a strong woman ly selfsacrificing nature you may help lola she said fondly but you mustnt fall in love with him i couldnt let my goddaughter whom i have loved as my own ever since i held her in iny arms a wee white bundle at the christening i couldnt let her throw her self away i never fear said lulu 111 never do a thing to make your heart achevfor i love you too dearly for that and mrs fanning was content her own life had been bo entirely free from romance niarrying when a mere child from friendship instead of love that she had no idi to what she was exposing her 3t the very gloonv which for a tune looked out of he deep eyes of the prodigal whom lulu wished to help was an attrac- itioni and when at last he grew to be bis j own bright genial natural self again what icouldthegirldo but worship him in the inxiermobt depths of her heart i still she bid her secret well the more she grew to 1 love him the more she became to him as illusive as well as enchanting as is a hum ming bird to the outstretched hand of an eager child but at last restored to his noble young manhood purged from the weakness which had been his one sin he stood before her and petitioned for her love then lulu answered come with me to mrs eanning your answer rests with her j i and standing with her bright head oowed and her tearwet eyes hidden by tbe drooping lids t she waited to be absolved from her promise m i couldnt help falling in love with horace she said but i will not marry him without yoa give your foil consent mr jknniag

record ed in boswell s life of joluuon io writ ing of theooo irrences of the year of 1777 be says on sundi y evening september 14tb i arrived at as ibourne and drove directly to dr taylors door dr

when i arose to go to ohurch in i ie afternoon i was informed that there had been an earthquake of whiob it aeenks the shock had been felt in aome degre at ashbourne said johr son at oncer sir thia will be much exaggerated inpopolar talk for in the first plaoej tbe common people do not accurately adjapt their thoughts to theob jects oor secondly do they accurately adapt their word to their thoogbta they do not mean t lie but taking no pains lo exact they give you very falae aooonota agreat part f their language is proverbial if it rains itpourif anything rocks at all it mnst it least rock like a cradle and so they go on with their unintentional falsification r well goes on boswell some years after that event i chanced to be looking over the pariah register at bushton i think my attention bad been called to it when my eye if ell opon the following entry a record of the veryabock of which i had spoken to drs johnson and taylor at ashbourne phis is the record on sunday the hlh

from a very simple incident a wholesome lesson and one which has since been of incalcul able benefit to me when i waa between twelve and fnor- teen years old my father broke up a new fleldjon his farm andplanted it with pota toes and when the plants were two or or three inches high be sent me to jioe it the ground of that piece was hard to till it waa matted with graas rootaand sprinav led with stones i hoed the first row and then stopped to take a genera look at the taak before me qraasashigh as the po tatoes waa everywhere and looking at the erhole from any point it appeared to be a solid mats i had the work to doaualone and at i stood itarihg at the broad reach of weedy soil i felt a good mind not to try to 4o anything further then with it just at that miuufe i happened to look down at the hill nearest my feet tbe grata didnt seem quite as thick there and i said to myself i can boe this one well enough when it was done another thought came to help me i shant have to boa but one
