Almost for the first time in my file I was quite alone ; my face, my nanur, my history, unknown to all around me. I never had sistcrur brother; my parents died when I was artiofant, but my aunt, Mrs. Erlccotc, adopted me, and bad in every way been kind and good as my own mother would have been~kind in every instance save one, and this one act of hers had driven Inc from her luxurious borne to thc solitude of a London coffccobousc, whore lfouml myself utterly alone. llusfiho world, such auotlwr panorunmfio show as London Ilridgc? 'l'hc coffee-house, where for that timcl had sought a home, overlooked it. I do not know why I had chosen so noisy and bustling a spot. Sonic instinct led me there. I asked for a private sitting-room at the house, and was told that there was a drawing-room for the use of_ ludics, and Iwns shown into it. I remember every detail of that apartment so well: it was a large, cheerful room, containing plenty of sofas and cosy chairs, a round table upon which Were spread papers and periodicals of every description. Though the weather was not cold, a bright fire burned in the grate. The room, to my great relief, was em ty, and I drew a chair to the window am sat down to think. The thousands of people that passed by! I never looked at the omnibuses, the carriages, the carts, thc cabs, tho drays, or the waggons ; it was the living stream of Int 11 and women that drew my attention so forcibly. Can anything be morc suggestivo of thought than watching a busy, cvcr~ moving, ever-changing crowd? to remember that each one, strange and unknown to you, is the centre of a little world of his own; each one has had his tragedy, his story, his struggles, his hopes and fears. Some of those focus upon which you gaze tell their own story of sorrow uobly battled with; somo will go on mulling until the cud of life; others are oven no A’ in the shadow of dcatli. If you \tisli to culnrgc your heart, to opcn it wide to all human sympathy and kindncss, go and watch it busy crowd: there is no surcr way. As I sat and gazed, my own little sorrow and trial accrued to shrink away until it be- cumc n more nothing. After all I had much to bi.- thankful forâ€"â€"glowing health, an active and vigorous mind, talents that had been well cultivated, and u face that my glass told me Would bear inspection. I saw the blind. the lame, the deformed, tho old, and the invalid, and then a warm rush of grati- tude filled my hcurt. My burden was light iudccd, computed to any of these.

My aunt was verv kind to me: she sent me to the bcat s‘-l|ools lll London and l'aris: at scvcntcen l lanmc her companion. For three years we were very happy together. I wont rvl‘l‘ywbvtu with her ; no mother could have been kiudcr or more liberal than was my aunt. ’l‘hen our first quarrel arose. The rock upon which we is ilit was my marriage. Ican sou now that did wrong. If the time could return I should not very differently. ‘I had two lovers, one was Lionel Rivers, a young barrister, just be- ‘ginuing his battle with the world: the “he: was a wealthy old barbuct. Sir “'ilton Graham. I need hardly say I loved Lionel. we were betrothed, and my aunt would insist upon my breaking my engagement and receiving the addresses of her friend sir Wilton. would not hear of it, I would not have broken faith with Lioucl to have become: an empress. So no quarrelcd, and my aunt, in a moment c: great irritation. mproacbed me With the benefits slic bad conferwd upon inc.

Nev-u- “an 1 upon lb. lleft my boxes in the booking-officcat London Bridge, and then went out to seek for lodgings. The first place that drew my attention was a large and very respectable looking coffee-house. I entered and found every mmfort that l could desire. When I was tired gazing upon the busy crowd, and the night was beginning to grow dark. I turned from the window to the table where the books and papers lay scattered. I look- ed at them hat essly: my thoughts were busy with my aunt and my old home... The Thorn In, just before my eyes. I» look .lt up. and began mechanically to read it. Suddenly I bothougbt me of the advertise- ments, and, turning to them, began in good earnest to read. "Of course," l thought to myself this 15 how I must find a situation. I must answer the advertisement-s over and over again until I get a favourable reply from one or other of them. , The first page was very unsatisfactory; there was nothing at all to interest me ; but on the second leaf I found an advertisement that startled me. It was as follows; " Wantedâ€"~A lady us companion to a young lady residing in tbc country. She must be well educated, highly accomplished, and of agreeable manners. As the situation is one of extreme quiot and seclusion, only those who prefer a very retired life need reply. The salary is liberal, and the home comfortable. Apply personally on Wednesday, between the hours of eleven and twelve, to Mr. Wilson, Solicitor, Chau- cery Lane.” "The vcry thing for me," I said to myself. ” if I can but obtain it." The next day was Wednesday, and I determined to go and try if there was any chance for me. On the following morning I dressed myself with great care, and at eleven o’clock found myself in the dull and some- what dreary vicinity of Chancery Lane. I went at once to the number indicated. To my surprise, I saw several ladies who had evidently come upon the some errand as myself. “’e were all shown into a. kind of nntcroom, barely furnished. Cocoa-nut matting on the floor, a large oak table covered with green baize, upon which re- posed some very dusty-looking lawvbooks, a few chairs quite innocent of all polish, and a green wn'e blind completed the list of adornments. “V: out for some time in silent ex cctation. It was an amusing scene ; the ladies numbered fiftccn; some looked cross and sunppish, others bright and hopeful, Long years of dmdgery, but ill-rccompcused, had taken the brightness from those worn faces. They accrued all to conspire in watching me; then for the first time I became aware that my dress was too elegant “I will do so, on one condition," I no neéd for it if you are satisfied yourself." " I ive you that promise,” he said. “As I do not wish the place of my residence to be known, or my relationship to Mrs. l-Irlecote,” I sazd, “I shall call my. self by my mother's name, which is also my own, Linden ; my name is Marian Linden Erlecote." He bowed much more dcfercntially to Miss Erlecote than he had done to the nameless governess: “ You will change your mind some day, and return home,” he said ; “in the mean- agreeable change." . “ I shall never return to Mrs. Erlecotc's mind that some years mu 1; claps Lionel could make a home for me. am I to go, Mr. Wilson 1’” I asked. “ As soon as possible," he replied. lady who has for tfe last three years filled the situation dicd,I am sorry to Say, here in London a week since.

After some debuting, it was arranged that we should go one after the other in the order in which we were sitting. That point, which the ladies seemed to consider a. very important one, being settled, the first of our little party loft us with u very self-satisfied smile, evidently doubting little but that she would be the chosen one. Of what took place at the interview held with others I cannot speak. It came at last to my turn. With a heart vibrating between hope and four, and filled with hundred new sensations, I was ushered into Mr. Wilson’s presence. I found an elderly gentleman with u shrewd, yct benevolent face, lighted up by the kccnost, brightest eyes 1 ever beheldâ€"eyes before which it was impossible to withhold the truth. They pierced inc through, and seemed to lay bare every thought and feel- ing. llcbowcd when I entered.

The logs bud got out some distance before the girls noticed what was going on, and when they looked towards the shore and saw their clothes in little piles on the bank, looking not bigger than a towel, their hearts tum within them. The wind was blowing fresh from the shore, and quite cold, and they would have suffered fcorfully, only their hair was auburn. which overcame the rig- ors of the climate to a great extent. Picture to yourselves those poor, misguided girls, on the saw logs, the shore of their native land fading in the distance, and the cruel wind blowing them towards Milwaukee at the rate of six miles an hour. Saw logs are uood property, but each of the girls would have given ever saw log on earth for a suit of summer clot es. They tried to paddle back towards the share, but what power had the little Michigan feet against the gale that was blowing them towards Wis- consin's hospital shores. The girls would not have objected to a trip state ordinarily, and they had often hoped tocross the lake onone of the propellers, but there is a great difference between crossing the lake on a propellor, clothed and in the right mind, and crossing on snow log, without any side saddle, attired in their minds.

The lining of parasols, if selected with taste, is known to bring out all the beauties, not only of the complexion, but of the hair and eyes, and the girls are smart enough to fnko advantage of anything that heightens their beauty. There is a shrimp pink for brunettes, and a Nile green for blender. It requires much thought and time for a young lady to decide just what colour will make her ap- pear best at all timcsâ€"â€"when she is flushed and when she is paleâ€"but when she sits un- der the shade that suits her she has a sense of happiness that repays all trouble. It is the fashion now to wear flowers upon the parasol corresponding with the carch or. those upon the clinpcau. The more bluff the parasol the more it is in fashion. Spanish and Oriental laces are used in abundance to trim them. All sorts of odd bundles are to be seen.
