A I’ll II, FOOL’S 1>AY. BY 8. ANNIE FROST. From Godey's Lady'* Book.] “Well I don’t think anybody enn ever dt ecivo mo again on that day. Unco in a lifetime is enough for any feasible per son to bo tricked on the first day of April." And pretty Mabel Hughes look ed defiance of all jokes, tossing back her sunny cut Is with u little whito hand, and dashing a merry, snucy look at the com pany around her. There was qnito a group of young folks, assembled to danco thu old year out, and the new yenr iu. Mabel Hughes took precedence at mosti f tho village gatherings, by right of acknowl edged bellcehip, and her father’s largo hodpitoblo house was tho rendezvous on the present occasion. The young folks hod bden discussing nnuivcisnries, and while on that theme, April Fool's day had hud n place in the list of memorable days of tho year. Mabel hpd been fool ed the year before by a gift of an ox- qukdto basket containing apparently dusters of rich red strawberries, far in ndvauco of the New England season. With a littlo cry of plonsurosho had put one nftho lucioiis looking berries into her mouth, to find it a painted deception. Laughing yet thoroughly in enrneet, she Imd vowed never ngain to believe in a gilt or speech of the duto ngain. As she now mado her speoch she looked full in the face of tho supposed perpetrator of tho last year's jokes, mid was answered by a pair of sunny frank eyes, that looked fully equal to fun of uny sort “I cun deceive you ngain," he de clared in answer to her implied chal lenge. “You have no idea how pretty you looked, when you curled up your noHO mid puckered your lips over that terry." "Why, where wero you ?" “In the hull, enjoying tho joke." “Well make the most of the recollec tion for you will never sco mo in a like scrape again." “Until next April." “Never I" “We’ll see! I shall take tho next three months to invent something abso lutely Impenetrable." “I defy you I" “Hark I" Klmvly tho penl of bells from the neighboring church sounded the mid night hour. As the first stroke foil up on tho air, tho group rose to their feet, joined hands in a l ing, and so stood mo tionless till the last echo died away.— Then “Happy New Year," burst simul taneously from their lips, and after joy- ous greetings all round, the party nope- rated, and the house was soon wrapped in darkness and repose. “So John Murtyu will play inc nnoth- •r trick this yenr," thought Mabel, tho next morning, ns sho stood before her glass twisting the bright curls round her fingers. “Ho may try his best, hut ho will not catch me again. Heigh-ho ! he will have other lliiugs to think of by e nf- that time, arid perhaps will forget me together." For John Marlyn wns going into tho world to seek his fortune. Ono year ago he hud left college, having spent Ins whole small patrimony to obtain an education. He had felt homo a frank blight boy, with unformed manners, rough wav*, n country bred youth in all senses, lie had come homo Trunk and sunny as ever, I ut with the quiet courto- sy of a gentleman, and an education Won by intense application during tho entire college courso. One year lie had given to home, though alone in his littlo cottage a brotherless, sistcrlcss or phan He had not intended to stay bo lung, but there was a magnetism in Ma bel II ughee’ durk eves that bound liiin to the village, until the admiration deep ened into sincere, earnest love, mid thou the conviction grow that ho must win weallli before be dured tell his pas sion. Mr. Hughes wns wealthy, a lawyer in good pructico, but there wero nine' chil dren in tlie luxurious homo, and the es tate w-ould give but moderate competen cy to each one. John Martyn wns not the man to woo .Mabel from her home, unless ho could offer at least comfort in his own, and bo had drained his purse in the year fol lowing his return from collego. Some where in Texas ho had un undo who had written to him that ho had an open ing for uq enterprising young man, ns stock farmer "I am very old,” so the letter ran, “and very poor, so you must not coino out here with any idea of finding wealth made to your hand. You will have to work hard—very hard, but if you are not afraid of that, I will give you a start, some practical advice drawn from expe rience, and a shake down in my raacbc." Soho had written, and bis nephew gladly accepted his invitation. lie had remained to see tho New } ear in, but Mabel knew his call on that day would be to any farewell for months, years per- Imps—“jMTliaps," she thought, sadly, “never to meet again.” .She had never questioned her bruit about John Mar tin, content to tuko hia pleasant atten tions, his gallant sjwoches, his deferen tial words, or, in other words, bis half sarny jokes, hie laughing badinage for the ;■ muniment of tho hour. But on that New Ycor’s day sho whs restless, i.eivons and excited, lidding herself talk ing at random to her callers, saying yes where she should liuvo said no, and lis tening intently for n footfall and voice that lingered away Irom her. At last ho came, tuning his call to miss the morning visitors, and when tho luncheon bell cleared the room of the family. Declining Mrs. Hughes' invitation to join them at tho table, ho kept Mabel for u few parting words, lie did not bind her, ho did not nsk n return of his lovo ; ho only told her his prospects and hopes, and then said if he ever had a homo to offer n bride, ho should come to his nn- tivo village to seek ono. Very vague this, but Mabel looking into his dark, earnest eyes, silently resolved that bis bride should lie waiting for him whon ho returned. Night found him speeding over tlie iron rood to Now York, on the long journey to Texas. My little heroine spoke no word to any one of tho hope in her heart. Some day, she thought, her secret fount of hope and happiness might bo upon to her friends, but not now—not until words wore given thut made her blissful dream a certainty of joy. Three months— four—sped nwoy, and one April morn ing, when tho feet of May wore press ing closely on tho confines of the passing month, Mabel bad a letter all alono in her pretty room; sho rend tho words her heart full of joyful surprise over tho con tents. John Martyn wrote a strnngo story. Upon his arrival in Toxas he had found his uncle fast sinking under n fatal dis ease, partly tho effect of starvation and exposure. In n miserable hut, with no bed but a blanket aprond upon the mud floor, half clothed und half famished, the prematurely old man lay dying. Shock ed nt such a sight, John had at onco sent for a physician und some comforts to the nearest station, hut tho old man was so distressed at tho expense, that it was not until his nephew assured him his own purso still held tho needful funds, that ho consented to have a bed, n chnir, a stove, and some medicines. For weeks ho lingered, tho young man faithfully ministering to his wants, then died, leaving all ho possessed, by will, to his beloved nephew, John Murtyu.— The miserable hut seemed a poor lega cy, but the young man's aumzcmont may bo imagined w hen bo found his unde had left an enormous fortune scraped to gether in a lifetime of miserly accumula tion and avaricious hoarding. After this tale, ho poured out his whole heart to Mattel, telling of his lovo. his hones, and plans. One word from her would bring him nt onco to her side. IIis uncle's af fairs would keep him a few weeks in Texas, hut before letters could bo ex changed ho would be freo to hasten to her. Might he hope ? If sho did not love him, silence would dual that blow to his heart. I cannot tell the rush of happiness that flooded Mabel’s heart as nIio read tho letter. Sho had pictured years of anxious waiting, hint let her fancy even run upon death during separation, had thought nt best they would bo middle- aged folks before John insde his for tune, and had tried to think how emi gration to Texas would suit her littlo self; and now ho could come home, rich, freo, loving, to make her his bride. Out of her fall, loving heart, she wrote him a frank loiter, then, before taking both to gain her parents’ consent to her answer, turned to the date, to ho certain of her address. With n quick, passionate cry, h!io threw tho letter far from her, and sprangfromherse.it. All the joy wns gone from her smiling lips, the flash from her cheek. Palo with u concentrated anger blazing in her eyes sho paced the floor, clenching her little hands, and muttering, in hasty, choking accents : “Unmanly I Ungentlcmaaly I April Fool’s day! This is tho result of his three months’ meditation. Idiot I wns to bo ho tricked by that romantic story I might hnvo seen it was copied from some old novel.

Tho foolish challenge of New Year’s Eve had been crowded from his memory by tho hurrying change of ovonts, and, therefore tho explanation of her silence did not occur to him. No she did not lovo him ; ho hnd been fool ish, blind, vain, to believo that nil her gcntlo winning ways mount more than friendship. Summer heat was warning him from Texas, and, arranging his af fairs, he left his uncle's grave, nml the miserable hut, nndatnrtod fora tour of the States, previous to nn intended trip to Europo. Ho would travel and for get this boyish love an folly. It wns Christmas Eve, and Mrs Groenwny wns to givo a large party, to which nil tho upper crust of New York society were invited. Mrs. Groenwny wns to introduce her nioco, nnd whon nn old friend requested permission to bring his son's college chum, a young million- nniro, on n flying visit to Now York, nnd about to start for Europe, Mrs Groenwny graciously gave the icquest- od permission. So they met. Mabel wns listlessly looking ovor tho room full of strnngo faces, trying to fool tho interest her mini expected in her guests, when John Mur tyu entered tho room. “Who is that, Aunt Helen ? How came ho horu ?" she usked in nn eager whisper. “Where, my dear ? Oh, tlmt must bo tho gentleman Mr. Leo wns telling me nbout. Quito a romantic story," nnd then she told Mabel what she imd be lieved to bo n cruel juet. Ono part of the letter true. Was tho rest sot tho quick blood flashed through her veins with Huffuouling speed; her breath entne in short gasps, but with nervous self-control sho stood quiet.— They entne forward to greet tho hostess, nnd as John turned from Mrs. Groenwny to acknowledge tho introduction to her nioco, his eyes loll upon Mabel. Sho did not pause to think whethor it wns forward or not. With both hands extended, her eyes lilted imp'oringly, her whole face quivering with emotion, sho said:— “Oh, John, wns it nn April Joke ?" A nd then tho duto of his letter flush ed iipod his memory. With quick tnct ho drew her hand through his arm, nnd led her toward the door. "Where enn wo bo nlono?" he whis pered, for she trembled violently, while the color was fading from her face with alarming rapidity. “In thelibrury. Como.** Well, reader, you and I neod nof too. When in the early spring, John Martyn sailed for Europo, Mabel wits by Ins side, u fuir, sunny bride, nnd tho April day tlint threatened to crush tho happiness of two lives, will do to recall for an old woman’s warning when silver tin cads creep in among her clustering curls.
