"There

company who had jart dined bj iaviu-
tion at the residence of friend May.

but never believed it,” said Mr. May.

thing like a romance connected with
my life, it undoubtedly happened while
I was unconscious ot my surroundings,
though 1 wm single onee I now am
married, was onoe penniless and, as far
as this part of the 'moral vineyard'
was concerned, friendless, now I am
surrounded with plenty and my many
friends vie with each other, it seems to
me, in making themselves agreeable,
bnt I can discern no romance abont
it."
"Of oovse you ought to know; but,
friend Hay, what is your Christian
name?" says I.
"Halcoltn," said he: "Malcolm
M»j."
"And your wife’s maiden name?”
"Day; Dollie Day," he said, smil
ing, apparently fearful that 1 would
make a point here.
Knowing my characteristic persis-
tance, he seemed to begin now to real-
s that he must tell something and if

of which had afforded him such
ite pleasure.
"Malcolm May and Dollie Day.
Why that sounds poetical, and I think
tbe union of such jiersons and the con
solidation of two such names and your
subsequent happy life, would smack
smartly of romance. By the way, as
this is tbe second anniversary of your
wadding day, suppose you tell us
and when you met your wife, and _
us a little sketch of yonr courtship.”
“Well, three years ago, to-day, 1
went to a May-day picnic. ”
“May day, indeed, in more sennet
than one,'* said 1, anticipating bow
the story wonld terminate, and some
of the audience smiled almost audibly.
"Yes, on tbe first of May news had
reached ocr little village to the effect
that there would he a little picnic about
five miles away, and a friend of mil
from tbe country had importuned n
to come out, saying, ‘there will be
heap of purty gills out there.’ Well,
I finally yielded to my inclination, and
that morning found me making prepa
rations for the trip. The day was very
auspicious, and the elite of the land,
the hardy yeomanry, and the merry,
old and young were there. Boon after
alighting 1 spied a laughing lass of
some fifteen summers which seemed to
me fairer and, in fact, she appeared
then as she has proved to be, t'
sweetest and loveliest girl 1 had ei
seen. There were some full bloi
flowers, some had begun to fade, but
this one was jnst budding, ‘the sweet
est bud among the roses.’ A hawk
sever watched nn innocent dove closer
than I watched my new-found treasure.
"Of course the day was enjoyed by
all, unless, indeed, it was myself. Oth
ers had left their cares behind them
and seemed to be luxuriating there
’midst all the pleasure the season, the
teenery, together with wealth and as
sociation could furnish; bnt I—I could
only think of the lovely flower I had
found, perhaps only to lose. I sought
ao introduction, bnt a gentleman to
whom I referred the matter actually
laughed at the idea of introducing me.
I fancied once that she smiled as she
looked at me, bnt I was probably mis-
taken; but as the evening began to
wane I met her, in company with
half dozen others, and fonnl her at
amiable in conversation as she was in
appearance.
"1 returned to my village borne that
evening, feeling as 1 never had felt be
fore, overjoyed, conquered by love to a
schoel-girl, and that too withont any
efiort on her part, abe being totally ig
norant of the serious reflections revolv
ing in my mind; and, as I sat medita
ting, I made this memorandum *
day book:
I went to the country one morning in May,

ter a refreshing night’s sleep and a
sweet dream about Miss Dollie 1 weni
about my business with renewed ener
gy and with the determination to live
eonaistent and economical, hoping
day to add something to the hanp
of one who 1 hoped would yetbles
little home and restore the tranquility
of which she unoonsciously had robbed
ms. Thera is nothing that can supply
the place of a woman’s love, and the
love for one as a motor in the mcrals
or even in the matter of industry
the greatest incentive I have erei
perienced. Presently an old gentle-'
man, I did not know, came into my
establishment and purchased a lot of
merchandise, and as no paper
___ plighted tbe faith
that have so far bran sacredly kept.
It again became necessary lor us to be
parted for awhile m she must return to
College and complete her educa

my great gratification.
Wa corresponded doting the time,
and many a sweet word, aoothiag to

though very timid at first, sbe began
*- speak with more candor.
On tbe first day of May, just two
years ago, precisely a year irons our
first meeting, we were joined in holy
wedlock, consumatingtbe vows of long

We listened for him to continue, but
he had ended his story—we knew the
remainder, and even when he said in

By an unaccountable oversight I had
