ET NETTIE NOBODY.
CHAPTER I.
“ Heigh-iio 1" yawned the fascina
ting Latimer, pushing his half-empty
cup of chocolate to the middle of the j
breakfast table, at which he sat alone,
for he was a bachelor. “ What a dull
life I lead, to be sure! No excitement—
jno news—thank Fortune, Winter, with
its gaiety is almost here, and I shall j
! then be able to exist with some enjoy
, ment. Why I should nearly be tempt
ed to marry; faith, if things remain in
this state of utter stagnation much
, | longer !”
■! Our hero had become the spoiled
child of Fashion— almost ; and we say
‘almost,’ for altho’his vanity was be
ing constantly fed by the adulation of
numerous friends, Albert Latimer's
’ heart was still in the “ right place."—
I He was a Georgian by birth and educa
tion, and had been in Philadelphia, a
> few months, where he intended remain
i ing until Spring, then return to his
■ Southern home. About twenty three
.! years of age, very wealthy, also lively
; i and agreeble.and exceedingly handsome
with flashing eyes,heavy wavy jet black
| hair, fine teeth and a “perfeetpet of a
I j moustache,” he was voted “iriesistable”
' by the belles, which fact would have had
" ! the tendency to raise the envy of the
, i beaux had they not been under the
'*; painful necessity of acknowledging that
• | “lie was such a fine fellow they were
e ! obliged to like him in spite of tbem
-0 ;selves!”
i His apartments at the Girard Rouse
| were arranged tastefully, from the fine
paintings that graced the walls, the
brisque statuttes scattered around and
n 1
j! the luxurious armchairs, to the little
private breakfast table, for Alfred had
v
an eye to elegance as well as to com
fort.
“ Tom,” said he,as his servant euter
ejed the room, “carry away this break
:- j fast ; I have no appetite. This indo
y lent life is ruining me, 1 verily believe.
! Have you to-day’s paper there ?”
«, “ Yes, sir, here 'tis sir.anything else,
' sir ?”
• j “No, Tom, that will do,” and he
'.i turned his attention to the newspaper,
I I over which he glanced ratiier carelessly
' j until his eye caught the long column
„ of “ Wants. ” Then he threw aside the
I paper exclaiming, “ I have it now!—
f l l No more dullness for a time at least;
! I’ll advertise for a wife ! Capital idea,
;1 1 take it.”
’ J He laughed heartily, and seating
'; himself before his writing desk, he soon
dashed off the advertisement, which
, c ; ran as follows :
, “ WAXTELt —A Wife. By a young gentle
man possessing an ordinary share of good
j looks, pleasant manners, and an ample for
| tune—therefore the latter is not needed with
n the lady. Sio must, ho ce er be accomplished,
1 1 agreeable and prettty. One having auburn
UI hair would be preferred. Address .4,
Sox , Post Office.
o ;
. “ There ! that will do !” and our he-
t ’ i ro, with a mirthful smile playing about
J his handsome mouth, took up his hat
1 ' and gloves, and descended to the street
■ on his way to the Ledger office.
e CHAPTER 11.
On the following morning in a spa
] cious and well furnished apartment in
2 j one of the mostelegant dwellings at the
.; “West End” of Philadelphia,sat a young
i j girl of about seventeen. Kate Forres
ter was petite and very pretty, with her
j wealth of ripply auburn hair waving
over her pure white temples and her
-! charming blue eyes, the very abode,ap
i pareutly, of mirth and laughter. Her
mouth, too, was bewitchingly “kissa
s j bie," the coral lips smiling over an ex
-1 j quisite set of pearly teeth. Kate’s morn
; j ing toilette was extremely taseful ; her
i j breakfast dress of rich brown merino,fal
ling in graceful folds about her, and
; half displaying a fairylike foot encased
jin a pretty rosetted slipper. Her tiny
hands held some bright colored crochet
work over which she appeared much in
terested, until at the sound of a sudden
j ring of the doorbell, she spraug up and
| threw her work upon a table.
“ That's cousin Frank,l know !” she
exclaimed and with a glad smile upon
her lips, she flew down stairs just as
“cousin Frank Hamilton” a fine looking
young Naval officer, was admitted by
an obsequious mulatto.
“ Oh, cousin Frank, I am so glad to
see you !” said the young lady, extend
ing both hands which be gallantly
pressed to his lips,saying,
| “ Are you uweet little cousin Kate ?”
! “.Little, indeed !” tossing her head,
“ I assure you, sir,l have grown consid
erably during past half year, and as I
i shall be seventeen to-morrow, I can tell
| you I am getting old enough to be trea- ;
| ted much more respectfully !” drawing '
i herself up with mock dignity.
| But cousin Frank only laughed aud
j with cousinly freedom kissed—not the
hands this time—but the upturned !
; brow, for which act Miss Kate pulled
j his whiskers, saying,
“ Now acknowledge j'ou deserved to
be hurt. But come into the drawing
room, I'have been so lonely all the
morning, mama having gone shopping,
so you’ve just come at the right mo
[ merit, you see,”
Kate drew him into the room, and i
they sat down on one of the luxurious
sofas and chatted merrily for some mo-
I meQ ts, when suddenly Mr. Hamilton
'said,
“ Kate, have you this morning's Lepg .
erf
“ Yes, I’ll get it,’ and she left the
; room but returned immediately with !
' the paper. ”
He opened it, saying as lie ran his
eyes down the columns of advertise
ments,
“I am searching for an advertise
ment of a friend of mine, who wants a
; wife.”
“ Wants a wife!” echoed Kate, scorn
fully. “ Well, he must be hideous, to
jhe obliged to resort to advertiscing as a
; means of obtaining a life-partner!”
| "Hideous? not at all, Kate, pet.—
iOn the contrary he is extremely hand
! some,also rich,etc. In short.it is no oth
|er than my friend Latimer, who you
ikuow is much admired—”
“What!—is not that the gentleman
with whom you became acquainted in
Georgia, and whom you have wished to
introduce to me?”
“ Yes, and unfortunately, just as you
!return to town, lam to leave ; for this
j afternoon I start for Niagara to escort
j mother home. However, I shall be
j back in about two weeks, and then the
| introduction can—ah, here—listen —"
) and he read the advertisement aloud.
1 1 “He is not in earnest, surely !” cried
Kate.
j “Earnest? Not he. He is doing
this, he says, to wile away the time. I
had it all from him last night. How I
’ j should laugh if he should be drawn in
’ to some difficulty by his freak.”
" j Here a carriage drove up to the door
and a richly attired lady, with a pleas
e ant face, descended from it and in a mo
' ment or two appeared in the drawing
room.
* “Ah, mama, dear, have you return
' jed?” said Kate kissing her affectionate
' j ly, while Frank arose and was warmly
" received by his aunt. After a few
[ minutes general conversation, Mrs. Foi
"! rester said,
"j “.Frank, when do you stait for Ni
' j agara ?' ’
■ I “ This afternoon, aunt.”
j “ What would you say if I should go
with you ?”
j “Say? why that I should be happy
1 1 to have your company."
“Goodness, mama!”—began Kate.
“ Well, my child, 1 beard to-day
‘ that Mrs. Carlton is at Niagara. You
' j know she is an old friend of mine, and
j lately arrived from Europe. I am go
’! ing on to persuade her if I can, to make
’ |me a visit, and as she is quite an inva-
I lid, J can succeed better by my presence
’ | than by letter. Your notice, nephew,
1 j is short, but I think I can be ready.”
1 “I will go down, then, and obtain
your ticket” said Franjj, lising.
“ If you plase, Frank, and I will go
* j and prepare for my impromptu journey. ’ ’
i “Oh, dear, dear! and what do you
suppose I am to do while you are gone?
1 I shall expire of mui, for papa is at the
Bank nearly all day,” sighed Kato so
I disconsolately, that the others laughed.
t \ “ Never miud, Kate, we will soon be
, back," said Mrs Forrester, patting her
, | cheek.
I “Break as many hearts as you can by
(way of amusement!” laughed cousin
! Frank as he left them.

I word for it, you will receive benefit : for there

j and now it i-recommended only for such dis
eases as it has curod.
These diseases are Liver Complaints, or their
many attending symptoms. Our acquaintance
' with it has been short, and not personal, but we;
have seen its extraordinary effects in a lew cases j
, of jaundice, billiousue.-s and general debility,
where every other remedy failed to give relief, j
It has some certificates of cures from sources

Seth W. F<»v. lk—Sir : You are at liberty to use
j the following statement fur the benefit ol the af
j flicteu :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
1 which apparently brought me to the brink ot
i the grave. During my sickness Iwas attended
by three pliysiciars in our place, but received
! no help. I also tried the various remedies re
commended for such complaints, but they af
i forded me no relief. As a last resort, 1 was
persuaded to try Wirtar's Balsam ofi Wild
j Cherry, and by u• -ing four bottles I \va restored
j to better health than ! lave enjoyed before for)
| ten years. This- tit . ;.t may be relied upon
i as strictly true. Betsey Perrix.

Barhav 's IMland Hitlers. —The wife of Pieter

, comity, Wisconsin, suffered much from Woak
! iug.-; of the Stomach and Indigestion. She bad
been under a physicians’ care for some time, but
| the disease seemed to bailie even his skill. She
purchased some HOLLAND BITTERS at our of
fice, which has given tune to her stomach ; her
appetite and .strength are returning, and we
firmly believe that this is another great cure ef
fected by your medicine.
Wo have still to record many wonderful euros
effected by this remedy, but must wait another

fcsTProf. Wood, 31-A Broad
way, > ruining the Hair Dye trade. People
will not use dyes when a natural restoration to
the original coloi of the hair can be produced by i ]
natural remedies. Dyes are artificial agents, I
and dangerous in their application, but WOOD’S
HAIR TONIC is a healthy stimulant, and causes
a healthy growth. A growth of gray hair on a
young person’s head is unnatural, and to apply
a coloring fluid produces an unnatural result ; ; *
the color Is changed, to be sure, but not through j ,
the roots of the hair. Ladies, do you see that ;
geranium plant iu the window yonder ? how yel- j
low and faded it looks ? It is alive and growing; j
yet where is the beautiful, rich, dark green that
belongs to it? Gone. You can color those leaves
by au external application of chemicals, but
they will not remain colored. Do you desire to
do it naturally ? Make a solution of guano water,
apply it to the roots, and the plant will take it
up into the system, and then you will see a rich
green, permanent hue. Professor Wood’s Hair
Tonic works on the same principle. The roots
of the hair drink up that application, and high j
health and beauty result.
Caution— Be^ware of worthless imitations, as; ,
several are already in the market, called by clif- j
fereut names. Use none unless the words (Pro- ■
lessor Wood’s Hair Restorative, Depot St Louis,!
Mo., and New York), are blown in the bottle. !■
