Age comes to some people only like the wider opening of the rose, the gen­ tle drooping of the creamy outer petal, and one must needs think of this in looking at Mrs. Fernalde. "I have had my threescore and ten," she used to say. "I have had all that nature has to give, and now I am living on grace." It was a sunny spirit that informed her, a lightsomeness that never let the sub­ stance of a tear penetrate beneath the surface that could endure nothing but happiness. Her unfailing good nature •was like a fairy wind that smoothed every trouble out of her way and out of the way of every one about her. If her hair was white, no great sorrow had made it so; and its contrast with the soft brilliancy of the black eye and the velvet flush of a cheek unwritten by many lines, made her perhaps as lovely as one standing in all the full radiance of youth. As for Mr. Fernalde--tall, dark, spare--he was by no means unat­ tractive, and his courtly manners had a unique elegance. He loved his ease; and annoyances, when they chanced to break through the magic circle his wife drew about him, vexed him, as they usually do a nervous person. For the Test, he was one of those men who, hav­ ing led a singularly fortunate life, main­ tain to themselves a fancy that they have just missed the last stroke to make to make the crystal complete, who have a vanishing ideal always just beyond the sight and reach. The Fernaldes were neighbors of ours. Wealth required no exertion of them, and advancing age secludcd them jn some measure from general society; their home was always cheerful; they were always in it; and if there had been no such person as the crabbed old Mrs. Talliafero, who had spent the last six months with them, it would have been hard to see how Heaven itself oould be much improvement on it. However, she was going at once, and then where would be the crumple in the rose-leaf ? They loved young people. "The new generation lends us a part of its freshness." they used to say. They al­ ways welcomed any of us, and indeed made me so particularly conscious of their flattering favor that I spent a good portion of my time with them, threaded the sweet little lady's needles, read and wrote more or less for Mr. Fernalde, and was gradually taken into their confidence in a way I did not de­ sire, since I am about to violate it. "Could I imagine a happier old age than this, my child, with my wife, my health, my flowers, our birds and pets and friends?" he said once, repeating my question. "Why, yes, my dear, it was much happier before my wife brought Mrs. Talliafero to stay with us. Some old schoolmate or girlfriend of hers, I don't quite know whom, for the fact is she nettled me so the first day she came that I wouldn't ask Bosalie a word about her, for fear I should show my'displeasure at her having brought her home when she turned up. ' It is astounding how an invisibly small thorn will destroy your equanimity. And then this woman has a quality that would turn honey into vinegar, I do be­ lieve. She has changed our quiet, peaceful, sunshiny life, that seemed like one long day in June, into a sharp, raw day in November. There is something very rasping about her. ,,I don't see why my wife invited her to spend such a season with us for. I wonder if she thought that at the end of the time I should press for a continuance? My dear, I have counted the days --it sounds . sadly against all hos pitable rites--I have counted the days till I should see her consult a railway time-table, as she did yesterday, about going home to-day. I believe she is not in affluent circum- «tances now. I would be glad to meet the expense of boarding her away! I am speaking strongly. Yes, Bosalie," looking at his laughing wife, "I know you say too strongly. Bat it is argu­ ment, assertion, contradiction, differing, bickering, finding fault with the ser­ vants who have suited us half a life­ time, questioning the expenditure, dis­ ordering the arrangements from one day to the next. Think of it, when she comes into my study and declares that my wife has the patience of the play to endure such a den of disorder in her house. She wonder* that I do not wear a scratch. #She warns me of indigestion, she threatens me with nightmares, she reminds me of my age, she interferes with my pipe! And then she wants so much fresh air! Thank heaven! her time is up to-day, and my wife will not invite another guest for a half year without giving me time to arrange a residence elsewhere! And such a voice, too! When one hears it, one longs for the proper infirmities of age that dull the hearing--sharp as a file, piercing as a locust's whirr! What are you laughing at, Bosalie ?" "Ah, you are not quite just, my love," •aid the sweet little lady. "Mrs. Tal­ liafero has a fine mind. She is really waking us up. She prevents otir sink­ ing down into a jelly-like existence, as so many at our age do. She keeps us bubblisg." "There, there, there, my dear! Don't say another word about your Mrs. Tal­ liafero! Go and spend a season with her at Saratoga, if you ever want to see Mr any more. I'll go to Richfield. Babble! She'd make sulphuric acid bubble out of the sands of the desert! Fve no doubt she worried Talliafero, poor man, into the grave! But there, I've said too much," he added directly. "I beg your pardon, my sweet, if I hurt your feelings about an old friend, but really--. Now, Bosalie, my love, if you don't cave to go over these accounts, our young friend will." And then Mrs. Fernalde tripped off with as light a foot as a girl of 17, and I drew up the great folding-screen around our chairs, stir­ red the fire a little, and took pencil and paper to add up the figures Mr. Fer­ nalde was to read out to me. But Mr. Fernalde was in a brown study for a little, and I let him stay. "It was strange that you should have asked me that question, child," he said at length. "I used, at your time of life, to imagine a very different old age from this, if I may so call that imagination, for, in fact, old age never entered into my calculations. I imagined nothing about the passage of time, only of the continuance of a condition. And that condition was the perpetual paradise of Alicia's smiles." "Bosalie, you mean," said I. "Alicia, who, when I,was twenty, was the light of my eyes and the loadstar of my life." "I don't know what you mean, sir." "Of course you don't, of course yon don't. I've half the mind to tell you, though. It's a long time ago--a long time--and no harm done. One is per­ haps a fool at 70," said Mr. Fernalde presently again. "I'm not quite 80. One is certainly a fool at 20. I was. at any rate, but I didn't know it, and I walked in a fool's paradise. And to be a fool and not know it! Is there, on the whole, any farther paradise? Pretty, pretty as a peach!" he began again, after another pause. "Ah! that sounds to us like profanity. That heavenly fair faee, those eyes like the stars in a blue midnight! that smile of exquisite innocence and purity! I used to tremble before her sometimes as be­ fore some young saint stepped from a shrine--one that I dared to desecrate by loving. Ah, how I loved her! The sight of certain flowers brings her back to me now! When the apple trees are in blossom, that pink and white snow, that ineffable delicacy of perfume, calls her before me like a revelation! There are times when this eternal smoothness of things in my life palls me--times when I cannot bear the sound of even­ ing bells coming across the water. It so renews for me that evening--that evening when I lost her--when I lost her if I found Rosalie!" "You lost her then?" I said, to break the silence that followed. "I will tell you. The two were in­ separable. If I walked or rode or sailed with one, the other was not far away. Bosalie was a little gay, tor­ menting sprite. Alicia was a pensive saint. It was Alicia's home; her father was a man of wealth, and Bosalie was visiting her. Bosalie had no home, no fortune; she hod just finished school and was to be a governess, dreading it as a butterfly might dread being broken to harness, dreading it all the more for this glimpse of luxurious life in her friend's home since school. I myself had a fortune in my own rig]it, and had been guilty of the follies of most of the jeunesse doree of that per­ iod, which, if comparatively innocent, were troublesome enough to the au­ thorities to need discipline, and I was passing a year of most unhappy rusti­ cation in the place adjoining Alicia's home. Never shall I forget the first moment in which I saw Alicia running down one of the orchard aisles with her white garments fluttering about her, and her fair head bent over the branch of apple blossoms in her hand. If lightning had fallen, the revolution that seized me could not have come more quickly. I seemed to be changed in a twinkling, to have been borne into an­ other planet. I felt as if sunshine had pierced and penetrated once impenetra­ ble gloom. When I fell asleep in the grass of that orchard, and woke with that heavenly creature bending over me, I rose .only to walk on air. The lit­ tle brown face of Bosalie, with its car­ nations, with the glint and glance of it? great brown eyes, with its flood of brown curls that had a touch of gold on them, with the glittering teeth of its beautiful laugh, was just over her shoulder, but I merely know I saw it by remembering it afterward. She was only a shadow to me in those days; and as for me, I was only Alicia's shadow myself. She lived and moved in some exalted atmosphere, to my perception. She does now. Her father wore the front of Jove ; I could not say that he did not carry the thun­ ders. I felt myself a mote in the broad beam of their sunshine, as though I were something hardly visible in their large range of^vision, as if it required an effort to make myself perceived by them. I hesitated to make the effort-- I worshiped from afar. When she spoke to me my heart beat so I had hardly voice to answer; when she touched my hand it thrilled me through and through. And I asked no more. I thought of no more for a while than just to continue so forever; to see her from my window walking under the long aisles of the low-branched orchard, like some mediaeval picture; to walk bt side her sometimes; now and then to venture reading from the same page with her; now and then to be her part­ ner in the dance. That Bosalie should be about with me, riding here, strolling there, walking to church, reading with the old pastor, in whose charge there was a fiction that I was, and so, in a way, studying with me--that was all a matter of commonplace; she was sweet, she was fresh, she was charming. But what was all that when an angel was in the room ? "One night I was on the gallery just outside their drawing-room, looking in at the long window, and Alicia was singing. Ah, how delicious was that voice! The cherubim and seraphim who continually do sing, if I ever hear them, will not sing so sweetly. I wonder to whom that voice is singing now! Besides her, that night, was this scamp who had come to the place more than once, a proud, commanding fellow in his undress uniform, a man whom her father plainly intended she should m$rrv. I can see the scene now--the rich "and dimly-lighted room full of purple shadows, the air laden with the scent of flowers; Alicia in her white drapery, more mystical, more beautiful, more holy, as she sang, than if revealed in the glow of her beauty; outside the violet depths of the sky, and the moon just falling, like some great golden flower, low in the west; and as Alicia's voice became silent a choir of bell tones coming far and fine and free across the water,"like echoes of her song in heaven. My heart swelled with a fullness of rap­ ture ; life seemed too rich, too sweet, too sacred; and then I saw that man stoop and kiss her brow. The action turned me to stone for a moment till he came sauntering to the window, and I knew no more what I was doing than that bronze Perseus in the corner would if moved. I lifted the hand that had seemed stone, and as he passed me I struck him on the mouth, the mouth that had done the profanation." And Mr. Fernalde was quiet a little while. ' "And that was the end of all things," he resumed. "The fellow laughed at me for a mad boy. Her father launch­ ed one of the thunderbolts, and forbade me the house. What a stricken day and night of wretchedness! What a week of hopelessness, of annihilation! But per­ haps Alicia felt otherwise. Why should I not discover ? Why should I suppose she had any other spmpathy with that creature than the sympathy of the star ard the worm? And if my glad hope peradventura were true, why then we could fly from these places that should know us no more; the world was before us, Heaven's gates were open to us. And I wrote, my hand trembling at it sac­ rilegious daring, just a dozen lines, without address, without signature. She would know what it meant. And I sent it by the parson's boy. And I waited for her, lying on the grass be­ neath the orchard trees, in the deep gloom just gilded by the influence of the unseen moon. There came the rustling of garments, the tripping of a foot; my heart beat, my eyes grew dim. Was it she coming up behind me, as I lay lifted on my elbow, kneeling and putting her arms about me, raining sweet kisses on my face ?--wild, sweet kisses in that shadow; wild, passionate whispers in that silence! And then a great pang smote me, and I rose and went out with her in the less dim dark­ ness--and it was Rosalie. "She never knew," said Mr.Fernalde, "she does not know to-day that I died that night. I can't say how I lived through those moments even. They were but moments she had stolen away. She had to return at once. We parted at the foot' of the mexjk-orange walk, and I went to my bed and lay there in a trance of despair. Perhaps sunlight brought some relief. The parson told at the breakfast-table the news that Alicia was betrothed to the army officer I had seen over the hedge. I wrote a word, saying I was called away, and I was gone a week or more. But in that blank I must have something to love me--to have an interest in. Better Bosalie than the absolute negation of those days. She thought nothing of my absence after my return. She was as full of romance as a flower of nectar, And, to sum it up, if she was not the rose, she had lived with the rose. One day we married, and here we are. A long life, a happy life, and I hare never regretted the day in it that I made Jier mv wife. After all, one can­ not marry among the angels--clay must mate with clay. What do you say? Not love her, my child? You never were more mistaken. I love her tenderly, absorbingly. She is a perfect woman--she has been a perfect wife. She has made me calmly and com­ pletely happy. If once in a while the old hope, the old dream of a passion arises and sweeps before me in its bloom and light, it is because it means youth to me--that youth which we do not know till we are old--is itself the ideal that it holds up for worship. Yet perfect as my wife is, fifty years of this smooth life with her wear some thing of the commonplace, and if across their dead level of same content some­ times gleams the shining of Alicia's face, it is not in any disloyalty to her. I often wonder what became of the •lovely creature. Once I could not have spoken of her. At seldom times, when I sit alone by the fire, she comes and sits beside me, and gleams of light and shadow make free with her sweetness, her beauty, her pensive and etherial grace. Dear girl! I suppose she sleeps in her grave by this, but she is a shaft of the light of heaven m my memory." And Mr. Fernalde rose, walking to the window, just as the screen began to tremble, and a smothered cough and then an undisguised one, betroyed to me, if not to lnm, that Mrs. Fernalde had heard the chief part of the mono­ logue. "And I had heard it in fragments and sections more than once before," she af­ terward told me, with her pleasant smile. "I know it means nothing--that he is just as wholly mine as I am his-- that our love is the imperishable sort that we are welded into one by fifty years together. Aud perhaps it was ignoble of me to break the pretty bub­ ble, to take away his little ideal, with which he has found comfort whenever I would have my own way too much. Yet I thought it was about time. But she said nothing of tliis at all as she came bustling round the corner of the screen that morning. "There is such a gale blowing out­ side," she said, "that the dust really rises in the house fit to choke one." "You haven't caught cold, Bosalie ?" said her husband, turning in concern. "Not the least, but I shall if the hall- door is open another moment. There she comes now. Make haste, and bid Alicia good-bye, my love. She is just going." "Who?" he cried, suddenly opening his eyes like lamps in their deep set­ tings. "Alicia--"Mrs. Talliafero, dear. She married again, yon know. O.h, it has been a fine jest," she cried with her low laugh, "to think that you should not have recognized Alicia in all these weeks and months!" Mr. Fernalde was quiet for a few mo­ ments, looking at the sweet little lady before him, with her color like the half- tarnished rose, with the soft brilliancy of her placid smile. Then he crossed over the hearth before me, and he took her hand and bent down and kissed her mouth. "My Bosalie," said, he, "will you not make my adieux to Mrs. Talliafero yourself? Tell her--tell her I have gone to the funeral of an old friend!"-- Harriet Prexcott Stafford, in The Con­ tinent Large Mulberry Trees. At the homestead of Mr. J. M. Can­ non, in Laurens county, Georgia, there are two mul1»erry trees that perhaps are as large, if not larger, than any in the county. In 1818 they were brought from Burke county to Laurens county as ox whips. The driver used them as switches. Seven feet from the ground one of them measures twenty feet in circumference, while the other, seven feet from the ground, is twenty-four feet and seven inches in circumference.

The 0f8«Mi. To find a satisfUftfy definition of gentleman is as diffieolt as to discover the philosopher's stone, and yet, if we may not say just what a gentleman is, we can certainly say what he is not. We may affirm indisputably that a man, however rich, and of however fine a title in countries where rank is acknowl­ edged, if he behaves selfishly, coarse­ ly and indecently, is not a gentleman. "From which, young gentlemen, it fol­ lows," as the good Professor used to say at college, as he emerged from a hopeless labyrinth of postulates and preliminaries an hour long, that the guests who abused the courtesy of their hosts, upon the late transcontinental trip to drive the golden spiKe, may have been persons of social eqiinence, but were in no honorable sense gentlemen. It is undoubtedly a difficult word to manage. But gentlemanly conduct apd ungentlemanly conduct are expressions which are perfectly intelligible, and that fact shows that there is a distinct standard in every intelligent mind by which behavior is measured. To say that a man was born a gentleman means not at all that he is courteous, refined and intelligent, but only that he was born of a family whose circumstances at soma time had been easy and agreea­ ble, and which belonged to a tradition­ ally "good society." But such a man may be falsa and mean, and ignorant and coarse. Is ho a gentleman because he was born such? On the other hand, the child of long generations of ignorant and laborious boors may be humane, honorable and modest, but with total ignorance of the usages of good society. He may be as upright as Washington, as unselfish as Sidney, at brave as Bayard, as modest as Falkland. But he may also outrage all the little social proprieties. Is he a gentleman be­ cause he is honest and modest and humane? In describing Lovelace, should we not say that he was a gentleman? Should we naturally say so of Buros? But, again, is it not a jbke to describe George the Fourth as gentleiuan, while it would be impossi­ ble to deny the name to Maj. Dobbin? --"Editor's Easy Chair," in Harper's Mag mine.
