And that night 1 looked more atlen
tively than was my wont into my mirror,
and tried to realize that I deserved the
epithet. But I saw ho threads of silver
in my dark, heavy braids, and but few
lines of care on my fair, broad forehead.
Anyhow, rny liearl felt young, mid with
a.sigh I tried to realize that f must ac¬

was placed.
The next morning my sisters were ea

“An old friend of mine ?” I queried, i
incredulously. “Yes,”
Lottie replied, “Mr. Loftus;
he is visiting at the Aments, and has but j <
just returned from a long foreign tour.”
“Will Loftus!” 1 exclaimed, “Is it
possible ?”

How pleasant were the days that
