My niece, Miss Blanche Morgan.” Frithiof bowed, and his heart be- gan to beat fast as a pair of most lovely dark-gray eyes gave him such a glance as he had never before re- ccived. “My sister is much looking for- ward to the pleasure of making your acquaintance,” he said. “Ah!” exclaimed Blanche, “how beautifully you speak English !. And how you will laugh at me when I tell you that I have been learning Norwegian for fear there should be dead silence between us.” “Indeedn there is nothing which pleases us so much as that you should learn our tongue,” he said, smiling. “My English is just now in its zenith, for I paSSed the winâ€" ter with an English clergyman at Hanover for the sake of improving it-}’ "But why not have come to Eng- land '3” said Blanche. “Well, I had before that been with a German family at Hanover to perfect myself in German, and I liked the place well, and this Eng- lishman was very pleasant, so If thought if.

CHAPTER II. z' Herr Falck lived in one of the 123 " [5, ‘ ,-,- pretty, unpretentious houses in i ' Klave-dalen, which are chiefly owned by the rich merchants of Bergen. The house stood on the right-hand side» of the road surrounded by a pretty little garden, it was painted a light-brown color, and like most Bergen houses it was built of wood. In the windows one could see flow- ers, and beyond them white muslin curtains, for aestheticism had not yet penetrated to Norway. The dark-tiled roof was outlined against a wooded hill rising immediately behind, with here and there gray rocks peeping through the summer green of the trees, while in front the chief window-s looked on to a pretty terrace with carefully kept ' flower-beds, then down the wooden hillside heights on the further shore and on one side a break in the chain of mountains and a lovely- stretch of open country. To the extreme left was the giant Ulriken, someâ€" , times shining and glistening, some- " = times frowning and dark, but al- ‘ ways beautiful; while to the right you caught a glimpse of Bergen with its quaint cathedral tower, and away in the distance the fjord like a shining silver band in the sun. ' . As Frithiof ‘ walked along the grassy terrace he could hear sounds of music floating from the house; some one was playing a most in- spiriting waltz; and as soon as he had reached the open French winâ€" dow of his father’s study, a quaint pair of dancers became visible. A slim little girl of ten years old, with very short petticoats, and very long golden hair braided into a pig-tail, held by the front paws a fine Esqui- mau dog, who seemed quite to enter into the fun and danced and cap- ered most cleverly, obediently keep- ing his long pointed nose over his‘ partner’s shoulder. The effect was so comical that Frithoif stood laughineg by to watch the perform- ance for fully half a minute, then, unable to resist his own desire to dance, he unceremoniously called Lillo, the dog, away and whirled off little Swanhild in the rapid waltz which Norwegians delight in; the languid grace of a London ball- room would have had no charms for him, his dancing was full of fire and k impetuosity, and Swanhild, too, I danced very well; it had come to them both as naturally as breath- impurities whatever" St. Lawrence Sugar.” 65 ‘3'? white caps; the men also in dark blue with broad felt hats.

There now!” as the music ceased, “Sigrid has felt her left ear burning, and knows that we are speaking evil of her. Let us come to confess.” With his arm still round the child he entered the pretty, bright-lookâ€" ing room to the right. Sigrid was still at the piano, but she had heard his voice and had turned round with eager expectation in her face. The brother and sister were very much alike; each had the same well- cut Greek features, but Frithiof’s face was broader and stronger, and you could tell at a glance that he was the more intellectual of the two. ' On the other hand, Sigrid possessed a delightful fund of quiet common sense, and her~ judgment was seldom at fault, while, like most Norwegian girls, she had a most charmingly simple manner, and an unaffected light-heartedness [which it did one good to see. “Well, what news ‘2” she exclaim- ‘ ed.
