W. A. SINGLETON, Editor &. Fro'p. VO LIME 11. NEVER BET ON WO MAN'S LOVE. t David Lovrat. Prom the K. Y. Mercury] There was a brightniU. ft fmhnees and glo-v about Annie Breton that won everybody over toiler before they"ware aware of lu it wa curious to note that everybody agreed in on* tiling; that she was not a beauty and could not betermed pretty. Come to analyze he—to .measure the wid h between her eyes length of her nose, proportions of her mouth complexion, hair—really tliero was not a re markable feature. What it was that tasei natedev-fry one who came in contact with her few oouid talk As for Annie herself, the chief ehnrua of ah was revealed in the tact that she was wholly unconscious of her charms. So when Allan McDonald—young Allan, the wealthiest man in the county laid his lands, hia decant establishment and tboir owner at her feet one afternoon in Oc tober op the russet-colored leaves, no one was more surprised lhau Miss Bret n. Stop. 1 will do her the justice to say that aha was prepjred for evidences of friendship: she had not thought lie entertained the idea l making her his wife. Her surprise was transient, carefully cou cOiled. Ho saw that the. *r brightness of hir faoe was brightened a trifle, that was all. With tha self-possession and grac e of a queen, Miss Breton asked ‘time to consider ” And ■Mr M -DouMld was compell and to be content with that answer. To say that tha young man was ill at ease, mortiti-'d, won!:’ scarce 1 )’ con ray the truth. lie was angry with himself for risking a refusal. Allan had a confidant. To him he revealed the truth. Unfortunately for him he selected the las! plaoe in the world lor a private con versation. The friends met in a photographer's gallery, and in the absence of the artist this occurred: “Hoes it ocer.rr to you there may be a ri\al," said the bosom fneud. “x can’t conceive who Tt could bo," replied Allar, thoughtfully. • <You can mu over her acquaintances and friends in your mind.' "There is no one better acquainted with her than myself, that lam aware of. Stop I Yes. there is a fellow—you don’t him —a car pentor, or something ul that sort, named 1 e no.” "Wh . by tha wif, 'ns achieved distinction as an architect. They say he is bouud to make his way. i’ve heard my uncle say ho has brains. X dare say it is the me," and •young Hathertoiilaughedat his friends length' eningfaoa Allan reflected. It would bo mor tifying. indeed, to be outstripped by a poor young mechanic; he with an incomo of seven thousand a year. • I see it disturbs you. Have a care my boy," added his friend. •i’ll wager you my ponies against a pai r of gloves—anything you pleise,*' said Allan Lilly, “that I win the day." • Oh I Don’t be offended,” replid the friend “Only don't be too sure.” ‘Will you bet.' ■Sinoa you persist, yes.' ‘Dose, fchake on that.’ ■With all tuy heart, old fellow, aud I hope you’ll win.’ •It’s a go,’ said Allan. llad he known that ho had a listener, and that the listener was the subject of their dig. cus&ioc, he would have been less confident. For in the ladies waiting room beyond. Annie Breton lifted a finger warningly. as she glauoed at her friend. It was a trying mo ment to both. Hiss Ulgton was a young lady who looked at the humorous aide of things. Hot a giggler, but a wit. A puff of u'r ; a chanoe movement on the part of the young men might have revealed the young ladies. Hiss Allston put her handkerchief to her lips aud stifled a laugh. Again Annie’s finger was held tip warningly. ‘Be still It will bo very awkward if they see us he.o,” she said. I.uckily the operator entered at that mo ment, and thua relieved them their of bus pensa. , , , .. , •Well say nothing about it, said Annie gravely. ‘At the same time, I will punish im.’ •And throw away the best catch in the county.' •I hat for the beet 'catch' as you call him.’. Iteally, Mies Breton looked auperb at that moment ‘A* if money could ever weigh against brains, decency or love.’ •Jly dear,’ said Miss Allston, 'you and 1 know a boat who are dying to be honored by such mention.’ 'ihc-to is no accounting for taata. Give me a man who oan keep his own counsel, and who is not a fool. It sometimes happen—it ofien happens— that a woman’s chance for matrimonial ad vancement aro flung together- veriiyiug the old saying *‘lt never rains but it pours. It was so in Annie Breton's experience. The very next morning Arthur Lane ca led in person, and proposed in ft manner that I roved to her that to him the decision was a question of momentous importance. He was a man of deep feeliug, uud.unonbtr.itive, but his embanmwment, his very silence pleaded for him a i he departed with the question still u ai t led. And now M -a Breton began to chide her. self, ftnd to marvel how she could have enter tjied Air McDonald’s proposition. This man’., manner, was so different. In shor although .he morrow’s mail would announce his fate. Bile sat down then and there, and addressed the lover a note bearing a siugh word :“Yes;”uud rose from her wilting with sparkling eyes and flushed cheeks. lu due time Allan McDonald a l lied for his answer. He wis vain enough to flunk that a little time was all that was needed. No woman, he argued could reflect upon his proposal without Surrenderiug. No woman would throw away seven tarns and a year’ especially with such an accomplished, ban i_ some, well-bred appendage as himself. A m n struggling for recognition upon the threshold of a profession that required influ ence as Wl 1, as decided talent had uo chance with liitn When he was announced, Miss Breton de termined to prevent him from subjecting him self to unnecessary humiliation. She was so charitable as to credit him with mo e feel ing than ha posaessed. •I have called, Aiiss Breton, for my answer' ile bowed, flecked an atom of dusk from his sleeve and sat down The action frozo Miss Breton rympathy. “I almost regrott that I didn’t give it at once, Mr McDonald” ■Mister!" Bo she inti not Lud sufficient time Wh ■ 6 fool he was not to give her plenty of t me Of course no girl liked the idea of selling herself cheap ■My dear Miss Breton, al ow me to say —or permit rue to cull you An oe— ’ The quiet look she gave him checked ibe speech.

The world now says Mrs. Lane made a good choice. Few men are more re spected or honored than her husband. The lesson did McD na and good. It did much towards curing inm of ins vanity, besides teaching him never to bet on woman s love. V Very Oe . st./ry.
