How A Young Lady Feels When
Bbe is Engaged.
The following “intercepted letter,”
from the Home Journal, tells funnily
how a young miss feeL when surrep
tionsly engaged : _ t .
, I)eak Allie—l have got a
live, grown-up beau; and isn’t it
jolly ; he's perfectly splendid ; just*
like those lovely wax figures in the
windows, dnly , they can’t use their
lips. . It's my Frencji teacher, and
he says “ma petite” st like a cooing
dove, and he always smells so sweet
of pond lillies ! T don’t have any
thing to clo with the boysyiow; those
little boys of seventeen and eighteen
do very weli when there are no men
around, if they can gcjt money enough
from their pars to b*ny us Guptlier’s
candies, but they can’t amuse us
girls of fourteen, they se.em just like
babies, and when they try to make
love, 6, my, arn’fc Ihey mushy? Now,
Monsieur Fontaine acts as it be had
, + * •
been engaged twenty times, although
I’m his first love ; but we dou’t let
on before mi, and Thuse. It makes
Arethusa aw'ful mad to have me call
her Thuse, and that’s the reasoti I
do it. I heard her ask ma the other
day if the Frenchman’s manners
were nqt too familiar towards, that
child Child! She’s awfully afraid
of m'y being a young lady! 5 What
need she care, now she’s, married ?
Wasn’t she spoony, about
Fred? When he used to come and
see her, I would drag Tommy, into
the loom and put my arm around
his waist and squeeze his hand until
her face would be as reef as a beet.
Such fun? I caught her kissing
him once ; such a little pipping kiss,
just as if sh© were tasting pepper
sauce. Now, if L pretended to kiss
a .man I’d do it in right good
earnest; fust frffe' square
on the ground aud give to him first
pop right on the lips. 0 Allie, poor
Thuse would gQ .off on a dead faint
at roy low-bred expressions, and in
form file for the nine hundred and

worth. Jiißt as if I didn’t’know my
own name, what does it matter
any way, when I expect to change it
so soon ? Ido not to hang
oil to it till I am a horrid, cl/1 maid,
like poor Miss Tracy opposite,, She
might be warning to the strongest;
minded, She’s , nervous, and how I
do Ipye to scare her. I promised
Tommy the other day five cents
worth of pea-nuts-to |et me , hold
him out of third story wipdow.
He’d let me skin him for a paper of
So I . £ot him put, and

soon there was ajt elderly shriek, and
then an elperly form pushed aerpsp
the. , street to mother ; but by the
time they got up stairs I was seated
quietly at my crochet-work, and
Tommy was turning summersault^
on the bed, over the lovely fluted
pillow cases. And ma still thipks
its poor Miss Tracy that is “a little
wild at times.”,. v . .. , *. - "
I love- my brother Fred ever so
much,' but I don’t see how he ever
came/ tq faqgy euch a die-away
specimenjas our,Thuse. Because che
is so awfully pretty, I suppose; but
she turns him around her thnmlv-
If he refuses »to get what she wants
she just looks like a martyr in the
fiames, and lets down all her back
hair like the Magdalena, in the pic
ture gallery. they are
real- pretty hanging , ofi the walls,
even an artist does not want to sit
at the table three times a. day oppo
site adive one, with her eyes rolled
up and her hair down her back. So
poor 1 always gives in, and she
smiles a forgiving smjle, puts up her
hair, and goes off to buy the fine silk
Or the set of jewelry that has taken
her fancy. And when she gets it she
keeps tight hold of it, too. Ste has
nerer given m« evell » enfl-batton.
Those always was etmgy. And she
is so stuck-up hecaose she hae got a
son Just ae if it wae eoroething

that you musn’t tell a living soul. If
you do I will never t forgive you. I
have promised- Mopsieur tbntaane
to be married in three weeks, pn my
