McFARLANE "Cannot something be done in the line of reform §" asked Everett. _ _ "I don‘t know, Individual efforts are made from time to time; but the evil bas grown so gradually that it is alâ€" most impossible to get people to reaâ€"~ lize its extent and effects. You see, there ars two classes equally ignorant to be taught common sense. The patâ€" ents are demanding that their childâ€" ren be taught everything; the school officers try to win distinction by addâ€" ing to the number of studies and ralsâ€". ing the standard of excellence. In: this struggle of ambitions, both parâ€" ties forget the delicacy and limitaâ€" tions of achild‘s brain." "Why don‘t the teachers protestt" asked Rose. "That is aleading question," said Mr. Minturn. "They are themselves victims to the double demand upon their skill. They realize the mistake that is practised; but when exhaustâ€" ed in the fight, they withdraw instead of appealing for a change of method. I take my own experience as a case in point. I did my best to supply capaâ€" cities to a regiment of very fine young fellows. Each of the number would bave excelled, with special training, in a few studies When I consuited my brother professors on the subject of a radical reform, I found that nine out uf ten of them werse depending entireâ€" Iy upon their salaries for their living They couldn‘t afford to be honest with themseives and their employers. A professorship in acollege is not reaâ€" dily obtained, and it is easier to swim with the tide than foree it into new . channels, I resigned, not enjoying nervous headaches and a bad consciâ€" ence." ‘ "Oh, daddy!" "It‘s so. The injustice done to the honest lads who trusted in the wisdom of the faculty was a haunting ghost. I had one pupil that I always contemâ€" plated as a parent. He was intendâ€" ed by nature for a historian; but his father wanted him to be acivil enginâ€" eer. That boy had my warmest symâ€" pathy and respect. You see,a in Engâ€" land the system of education adopted by the better classes produces great men. The child‘s brain is nourished as carefully as his body. He is taught at home by atutor, who learns bhis naâ€" tural tastes and seeks to develop them. There, they don‘t train an oak to & wall, or try to make a vine stand up» right. Individuality is recognized and lussisted. Look at the results. Giants fill every department of learning. Engâ€" land can show us how to produce towâ€" lering intellects." C _ "You think we Amerlcans enjoy & dead level in that direction?" o "We haven‘t thought of much outside ; of moneyâ€"getting for some years. Our | plutocrats make quite ashow in the | world. ‘A rich American‘ is the tradeâ€"| mark of the United States, Perbaps in | the far future we may boast again of ; a philosopher, astatesman . or philanâ€" thropist." & TORONTO "There‘s a chance for you," said Rose, turning her eyes on Everett, who reâ€" turned the glance with interest. _ "We could stand a fow great men," bhe said dryly. _ > "Suppose we get into the garden beâ€" fore we grow famous," suggested Mrs. Minturn. "Find room to expand," said her son, laughing and leading the way. "Oh, reform will come. It must! Engâ€" land is setting us the fashion in unâ€" important malters. After a while,we‘ll reach the foundation of her system." "Progression by retrogression," said Everett, thoughtfully. "Precisely. We have grown rapidly as a nation, but all in one direction. We lack breadth. Lots of people think that the world began when the Puriâ€" tans landed at Plymouth. What do you amoke ?" "Nothing, just now. I see your â€"â€" Miss Minturn, inspecting the waterâ€" ing of her garden." "She has some nice plants out there, if you care for flowers," "Indeed I do." Everett joined Ross in agarden path, and Mr. fdinturn contemplated their figures in the twilight, and puffed his evening cigar. His mother came to enjoy his reflections and the fragrant air, in which the perfume of mignonâ€" ette was most perceptible. 3 â€""He is very nice, Robert. Not as bhandsome as his father was at his age, but I think more attractive in manâ€" per." k -‘:"l.Ie has had opportunities for cultiâ€" vation that were not obtainable thirâ€" ty years ago.

"Just listen to Rose laughing! Pleaâ€" sure expressed in sounds, I think." "Yes, it is a comf{ort to hear her. He has a good laugh, tooâ€"honest and unâ€" affected." "Daddy, aren‘t you coming for a walk #" "Yes, I‘ll be along in a moment." "We are going to the great eim; bring my wrap." Mr. Minturn followed ieisurely, the wrap on his shoulder. He was humâ€" ming a little song. Abead of him were the tall slight figures,; the moon was throwing shadows on the narrow path; the air was sweet with the freshness of a June night. Presently, his dauâ€" ghter paused, turned, and linked her arm in his. _ o 45. 9 = CHAPTER III. ‘ Everett‘s punctuality was perfect, and Mr. Minturn was satisfied with his natural powers and his application. As the weeks passed, he made the acâ€" quaintance of the people who frequentâ€" ed Mr. Minturn‘s bouse, and was inâ€" cluded in the merry-mkinfi incidenâ€" tal to the summer months. His social qualities were limitless, but he did not allow pleasure to encroach upon the hours devoted to study. His proâ€" gress was decided and rapid, and, charmed by his letters and Mr. Minâ€" turn‘s reports, bis mother. decided to pay him a short visit, and in due time arrived with her party at the hotel in Great Barrington. _ _ _ mt Minturn‘s bouse while that {uulmsn was still at breakfast, and took a cup of coffese from Rose. "Will you call this morning!t" he said to her, as if continuing an old topic. "No, I‘ll wait until afternoon, Fathâ€" er aud grandma are coming with me. We are going in state, so as to make a proper impression." Everett laughed merrily. "I want io hear your impressions. Mother has a friend of Mollie‘s under ber wingâ€"a Miss â€" Daphne Van Ness, who is supposed to represent all the distinguished straits of her Dutch anâ€" cestry. Somebody is ill or absent, and mother is taking ber to Newport with Mollie." _ _"Van Ness,?"" said Mrs. Minturn, abâ€" stractedly. "I used to buy oil and candles from a MMr. Van Ness. He was a very honest quiet man, and he laid up money and educated his childâ€" ren very carefully. Two of his sons went into the sugar business, when you were a baby, Robert. I bheard they | prospered wonderfully." a€ se T Poticen o1 tas CTa w CBLEUD, RANSRE PP UITETTTOETETTT "Mother is a walking directory of | Old New York, She can locate people | as fast as you can nams® them." | "New York was a comparatively | small place when I was grewing up ini it, and then my father, being a good . physician and in great demand, was brought in contact with all sorts of people. So I had the benefit of his comments and opinions." "And a doctor sees sides of life that are not often on exhibition," said Mr. Minturn. "Mother could entertain you by the hour with histories of New York families. They enjoy the fruits of their grandparents‘ labor. Our aristocracy is very modern. A sufficient bank acâ€" count is the patent of nobility,. Luxury is magnmetic. Our desires increase w it h the means of gratifying them. I must say that ILenjoy seeing these boys and ?irls revelling in the ease of inherited ortunes. They belong to the developâ€" . ment of the country, and an equal diâ€" | vision of estates among the children | checks overgrowth and keeps the balâ€" ance equal." | __"Is Miss Van Ness pretty?‘ asked . Rose. "I was waiting for that question," said Everett. "You must see and judge for yourself."

Mother told me that her grandâ€" father made afortune in sugar refinâ€" ing, and invested it in New York real estate. Their wealth is solid." & Mn s C PC tar es s “'}retty is that pretty does " remarkâ€" ed Mrs. Minturn. "You must tell your mother that we expect to bring you all back to tea witn us. We have a carryâ€"all quite large enough." "How good of you! I can answer for Mollieâ€"this place will satisfy her. She loves quaint, old gardens, and real comfort. My sister is a little trump, if I do say itâ€"simple in her tastes and loyal to her friends. She is afraid this visit is going to interfere with my proâ€" gress, so I must double my efforts this week and set her kind little heart at "I am sure we are golng to have @ lovely time!" said Rose, . her eyes sparkling, her cheeks flushing. "If this is their first visit, they will be charmâ€" ed with the scenery and the drives.‘" _ "I thought of a picnic to (Bashâ€"bish, one day." "Oh, yes! The carryâ€"all will be just the thing !" "And you are to dine with us anâ€" other day." 6 V"Daddg'ahas a dinner party arrangâ€" ed. for turday." "‘That disposes of three days. I fancy we‘ll be able to make the week a jolly one. Of course, with Newport in prosâ€" pect, they won‘t be dazzled with our efforts; but we‘ll do our little best," said â€" Everett. . _ ""The choir has undertaken some exâ€" aru. singing for both services on Sunâ€" fly." Everett shook his head. "I told them it was entirely too amâ€" bitious," said Rose. _ _ f f _ ‘‘Absurd!" remarked Everett, as be left the room. The afternoon was an lIdeal one. Mr. Minturm drove, and the hotel was soon reached. Everett received his friends, ushered them into the parlor, anad made the necessary introductions. Rose was too much absorbhed in ber new acâ€" quaintances to pay much attention to the elders in the group. She was conâ€" scious of a steady conversation of | a strictly reminiscent character, while she answered tke two girls, who studiâ€" ed her with equal‘ curiosity. Miss Everett was short and slight, and was exquisitely dressed in gray, relieved with touches of silver. She possessed the attractiveness of youth, but was not gifted with any beautiful feature. Miss Van Ness was avove medium beight, and was painfully laced into a costly costume of fawnâ€"colored cloth, embroidered in piak and gold. Her complexion was dull ; there were dark rings below her heavy, blueâ€"gray eyes; her features were large, and her voice was harsh. Both girls used quantities of slang, which was untranslatable to Rose, and prosounced "a" like "ar‘" in a manner supposed to be English, alâ€" though the weakness of the imitation was unmistakable to any person who had ever met and conversed with a naâ€" tive of England. / % _ Not _ h;;i‘;l-éâ€"s;en ner brother for weeks, Miss Everett had much to tell him; and Rose listened, entertained and interested by the medley of light topics and the expressions which he understood from habit. He arranged to join the party at teaâ€"time, and having assisted the girls into the roomy carryâ€"all, returned to bhis studies. Mr. Minturn had Miss Everett beside him, Rose and Miss Van Ness occupied the back seat. The views and the charming air did not inâ€" terest Miss Van Ness. _ _ "Is Mr. Everett really going to pore over books until dusk ?" [ ‘t you ntil la:s il and | stage." s.

"I can assure you that his aepples your garden." "I‘m afraid you will be disappointâ€" ed." Rose could not decide what Miss Van Ness thought of her home. The visitâ€" ors inspected the house, its outhouses and gardens, with a degree of interest that suggested intense curiosity. The flowerâ€"garden was a mass of bloom, and the girls decorated themselves , with their pet blossoms, and made & . very striking picture when Everett | arrived on the scene. â€" His appearance produced the effects of sunilight upon ; gems, and the bright bours took wings. | The drive to the hotel by moonlight : was lengthened by a detour that led | to the hills and disclosed an exquisite â€" variety of view. The day was voted a ; success, and the doings planned for the I morrow. O 5 F { ‘ Another bashful bachelor met with ! more salient success, perhaps because he elected a woman as a mediam. Mr. ! Ernest Dewar, of Boston, found his ‘heart _bopelessly captivated by _ a tcharm'mg friend of his sister, who visâ€" ited them occasionally. Too shy to tell his tale, he persuaded his sister to spea): for him. With such superb tact and address did this lady perform her delicate task that the pleasing sequel : was a happy union. _ â€" Father and daughter returned home ; in the dewy night air and exchan‘ad‘ impressions of their guests. j "I hope they won‘t be tempted to stay beyond the week, Rose. 1 don‘t want Everett distracted with Miss Van Ness‘ attentions, Once he gets through, be can please himself." CURIOUS COURTSHIPS. Most men deem it advisable to attend to their love making personally, for obvious reasons, but there are on reâ€" cord a few eccentric exceptions to this commendable rule, as the following auâ€" thentic examples will attest : A Manchester merchantâ€"a nervous and retiring man of good appearance and positionâ€"fell in love with a comely Lancashire lass, but lacked the courâ€" age to personally declare his passion. He therefore confided his secret to a cousin, also an attractive and wealthy man, and asked him to interview the yound lady on his behalf, and convey \ _ A certain Berlin banker, extremely | enamored of a pretty fraulein in that city, asked a nephew, who was his |counterpart in face and form, to woo ‘ and win the damsel for him, promising | a substantial check for his reward.

The sequel was not surâ€" prising.
