You shall know that presently. Just imagine your¬ self an experienced man of twenty- one ami a half years, with plenty of money and—well—I don’t think the ladies think me very bad-looking. I date my woman-h itmg proelivi- ties from the time Miss Emma Talbot , under during . . was placed my care, a trip down the Hudson. She had been staying with her aunt several months. Her brother Harry, was in the Militirv Academy, and was one of the gayest and most reckless fellows in the place. It was through him that I , became , acquainted , with ‘. , h.s ,. , K j s j ?r. She was a lovely blonde, ami knew how to show her beauty io the best advantage. Of course I feTTiti love with licr lireetly, and was led to believe t! a‘ she did m t dislike me, until she told me of her intention to return to New York, and that her three cousins w. re coming up to take her back with them. I never saw three such nils liitf loving girls. The youngest especially distin¬ guished herself the day after her ar¬ rival, by getting her time-honored a tnt on the top of a rock which could only be reached by a ladder. While her aunt was en joying the view, Kitty accidentally knocked the ladder down, and walked off uncon- cernedly as if noiuing was t!:e matter. It was not until an hour or two after, while 1 was pour’n ' a flood of eloquence in her listening ear, that site sta. te l up, interrupting oils of my best metaphors, and exclaimed: “I wonder if aunt Talbot has gone home yet?” And she started off on a run to re¬ lease the poor woman from her cap¬ tivity. I had determined to make a for¬ mal declaration of love on the home trip—not to the imp of mischief, Kitt v ’ but t0 Emma Talbot; for * thought I, Miss Emma is . so desper- atelv ’ in love with me that I really must many marrv the tne noor poor tliino- tiling or oi she sir will go ‘ raving erasev. iMieli , things have happened. So, after innumerable boxes and trunks , safely . , on , board, , my be- , were l ove d Emma promised ‘ to go n on deck with , me. 1 T ;n Jlca i mention nipIlt ; mi that th-u Uanj Hutv Talbot (who was escorting the cous- »««) aild m 7 peerless Emma were twins, and, as a natural consequence, looked , , , very much , alike, the , more so as Emma wore her hair in short curls, after the fashion of the pres- eut day. Before coming on deck, she had some alterations to make m her tor- let, so I went up to see if there was any place where 1 could gain her promise to love and obey me, «fcc. To my surprise the deck was clear: so I went back and found her wait- ing for me but I was surprised to find her wrapped up, with a thick veil over her face. * Kitty was standing near her with such a look of rougery in her eyes JASPER, GEORGIA ■ URSDAY APRIL 9, 1891. that I knew that there was mist going on somewhere, and I offered a mental prayer for the unhappy ' te- tint of her practical jokes. I requested Emma to take off t int unbecoming veil, but before be could answer Kitty said she hi i sudden attack of neuralgia and m L keep it, on for fear of getting nv i i cold. I made no more ado, hut t,<i ik ing to the duck. As wo passed through the saloon T imagined 1 heard the sound of smothered laugh¬ ter several times; but immediate*y thought it must be the creaking *of some of the machinery of the steer*. cr. I led her to a seat, where we 1 a tine view of the scenery on A sides of the river, and seated mpf f beside her in my most graceful ti tilde. » i (1 had practised perfectly.) it before starting until I learhed it t Sho seemed to know what lof \tms Coming, for she was very quiet. 1 had heard a great deal about tju disagreeable task of “popping the question;” and with my usual fore- thought,had prepared my speech her forehand. “Now,” thought I “is the time.”* So I commenced: “Emma, these waters remind me of life; sometimes it glides smoothly, and sometimes it is disturbed by storms. Emma-” And there'I stopped, having for- gotten the next clause. I felt in my breast-pocket for my speech. wasn’t there, nor in any of my other * - pock, , , ts. . Non what was 1 to do? Suddcn- ly I remembered having read in some novel that deeds were better than words: so I got up closer to and put my arms around her waist. She did not resist, but was seized with an uneontrolable tit of coughing. It stopped presently; and taking her neatly gloved hand in mine, 1 commenced at the next part of my speech that f remembered: “Emma, don’t you think a person is happier married than single? Sup¬ pose, for instance, I wanted to get married?” Here site gave a deep sob. “She thinks, poor child!” said I to myself, “that 1 am going to marry some one else.” llowe.ver, I took it as a good sign, | and drew nearer to her. “Knima, dearest angel, you love me and I am happy.” Here she gave another sob. “Lovlicst of lovely women do not deny it. I swear, by the stars and moon, and the sun that looks so lov- inglv on us, that I love you and von only. Will you be iny mate? For I am a poor lost dove, waiting for a kindred spirit to eherisli until death. , 11ns is part of the , speech , which . . , came into my mind just at the l ight j moment. At this interesting point she be¬ came very much affected, for she put her handkerchief under her veil, and sobbed aloud. When she stopped, I continued: “Emma, my own beautiful dove, will you promise to love me always?” I heard a faint “yes” from under that odious veil, yet it was distinct enough for me to hear. 1 took her hand. She did not resist. “Dear devoted one,” said I, in an irresistible sweet voice, “will you not token , ot , , love? give me one your W ill you not grant me one kiss from those lips that vie with the cherry in sweetness and beauty?” “Yes, love,” was all I could hear; but that was enough. I tore aside that hateful veil (she had kept it down during the whole I affair) and kissed—Harry Talbot! There was no mistake—or rather, it all mistake; for there lie sat 1 was a laughing as though he would go into | hysterics. i rushed tow ards the door and j there 1 met with such a reception as j I never was honored with before, The whole ship's crew were there, who had been kept, from going outside while I was making that da—no, I mean that declaration of love to a man. I tried to run the blockade, hut ; was received with shouts of laughter from all sides. As roou as the turmoil ceased in some degree, those little she-devils, ! Kitty and Emma, came up and offer¬ ed their congratulations, at which piece of silly nonsense everybody commenced laughing again. The doors and passage-ways were crowded with servants and waiters, who seemed to enjoy the miserable joke as much as their betters. Harry afterwards told me that Kitty had the next room to me in the hotel: and as the partitions were thin, she heard me telling my chum my love secret and heard him advise me to write the ‘declaration” out on paper in due form. She had man- a P od to get it; but just before the boat landed, she apologised for tak- •«« l b and £ ave it back to me saying as fdie dld *°* that she “thought she had better retur " h as 1 mi g ht have occasion toaise it again. Now, reader, do you blame me for hating women? Although 1 cannot help it (and you ' can see yourself aiu t a particle ot conceit ' H 11 W "ature,) if, I say, tlioy don’t hate tne in return. Xhe most perilous hour of a per- son’s life is when he is tempted (ft despond. The tnan who loses his coi nagc, loses all; there is no more hope of him .ften of a dead man. But, it matters not how poor he may be, how much pushed by cir- eumstances,. how much deserted by friends, how much lost to the world—if he only keeps his cour- holds «P his head, and with unconqueraole will determines to be and do what becomes a man, all will be well. It is nothing out- SK 1 C of him that kills; it is what is within that makes or not makes.— Exchange. The Arabs, who know Uic cam¬ el best, say that he is without one single redeeming trait, He's a biter, a kicker, a sulker, a deceiver and a hypocrite, and that nature made him only to see what a mis¬ erable specimen of brute creation she could bring forth. The Legislature at the fall session adopted a resolution directing the school commissioners to investigate and report to the adjourned session whether a method could not he adop- t3<l to reduce tho cost of school books. This is an important matter as every one knows wlio is forced lo buy books at the present price. We can see no reason why the state can- not, print her own books, but if this be impossible then arrangements can be made with some of the publishing houses to furnish books at a nmih less price than we now pay. The matter ought to be thoroughly mve's- tigated.—Gwinnett Herald, “Boy, ’ said lady East Eliz¬ a on abeth street, “have you seen a lit- tde lost lost dog anywhere on the street?" “A little black-and-tan?” “Yes ” “Yes, I saw him right down by the alley.” “Thanks ” “But he isn't there now. A great big dog caught him rigrht at the alley and chewed him up!” “Mercy!” “And gulped him right down,” “Heavens, no!” “Yes, he did.
