“I’m not particular. Is site worth

“Ben., you exasperate me. Do you
take an interest in anything ?"
“I don’t do anything else In Wall

in resting In a plillosophieal sort
way." •'* y
“Well, I suppose you are tired, poor
fellow! I know how you Ml. Tara
tired myself, most of the time.’’'
“Tired! I look like It,’! laughed the
young men. “I’ll tell you how; It is:

Ben. Adams at twenty-one lied per^
formed his social duties with great
zest. Four years later he was stUl
heart-whole, and beginning to take a
purely fraternal Interest in blushing
debutautes. He danced leas and went
to the opera alone or with his friend
Hutliland, a confirmed bachelor of
twenty-eight. With entire resigna
tion young Adams acted as usher §|
many fashionable weddings, and
without a sigh saw Katherine, Kate
and Kitty led down the aisle by other
men. And so he approached his thir
ties, and within a year of them leaned
idly over the piazza railing at tbfe lake
and declared to his sister ttwt Rol
son Crusoe was the luckiest fellow
his acquaintance. “Give uie a desert
isle for a summer sojourn.' What
would refresh a man like geing back
to savagery?” - *
"I don’t think it would be enough
of a change to benefit some I know,"
laughed bis sister. “Well, Ben., all I
euu say is, you are very different from
what you used to be."
in tlie meanwhile, the boat below
pushed oS, and Adams followed it
with his eyes chiefly because It would
luive been more trouble to look anoth-
er way. The young; lady in the sterh
was Miss JoseplilAc Vail, and the boy
at the oars was her twelve-year-ol
brother. J osepliiue was a young lady

logic and by what some* plainly
