•‘Hits money, too,” Willbauk con
tinued', the sarcasm failing to pone-
Irate his ar’rnor of Velf-coneeit, 4 ‘and

”1 see! Miss Gnase lives in an
atmosphere ahqvo puddings. and
hut tons;”
“Well, one can scarcely fancy her
doing i lie domestic no w, can lie? And
she is wonderfully v accomplished —
sings “ail'd plays aud paints, has been
abroad, and talks German, Ffenc.i
and Italian, Brains, you know, us
well as oeauty. A woman lo sliiuc
in society.”
“She proves that.”
* Yes. Look at her now. By
Jove! she can talk to half a dozen
follows in once, But site is delicious
tete a tete. Full of wit and uni mu
tiou.”
John Delorme looked as command
ed. Under the full blaze of tut im
mouse chandelier in a crowded hall
room, he saw a woman of t wo or
tnieeaud-iwenty; tali', superbly
proportioned, holding erect uud
stately a deiiealoly poised head of
crimps and curls, in smooth hands,
swept hack, from the small ears, and
held in n rich knot, by a diamond
studded comb. Eyes, large, lustr >us,
anti deepest brown, were shaded hv
long, black lashes. Perfect features,
dazzling teeth, aud soft, clear,
brunette, complexion, were ail sot
off by a dress of ruby velvet and
black lace iu artistic combination;
the ai ms bear to tho shoulder, but
the dress coining to the throat, lieid
there by a diamond clasp! A queen
of society, us Harvey W illbauk bad
said; one to preddc over a paliice, to
reign in fashion’s circles, to wear
the richest, robes, und command a
retinue of servants.
She was leading her usual train of
admirers at Saratoga, aud her aunt,
Mrs. Montague Warren Leporto. was
her well pleased chaperon. A beauty
herself, Mrs L'*po(ie was pet’rc
and blonde, ami her niece hav ing
wealili of her own, elm could enjoy
her triumphs witliout any anguishut
the cost of her toilets, or jealousy of
her looks.
“Because, my dear,” she said to
her niece, m a burst of c< ntideiioo,
“people who admire lull, majestic
beau lies would never look at me, and
youi charms are lost to (nose who
G-a.j prefer the fairy-like type.”
“I sou!” said Lonoro, wit h a gravi
ty too deep to be altogether beyond
suspicion. “We arc not likely to
clash. Mr, Jervis Jervis evidently
adores the fairy-like typo.”
“Yes,” said The widow, smiling,
“and Mr. Harvey Wilt bank the
majestic.”
“Dear little follow.” sighed
Miss Chase, “what a sweet darling
lie is!”
“Awfully rich, Lanoro. Aud his
house is perfect. They say his or
ders to the upholsterers wore simply
.unlimited.”
‘•Like his wardrobe, lie neve’ 1
seems to wear the same garments
twice, oven his scarf pins or sleeve;
links.”
“Don’t you think ho is hand

.'Perfect! His-faqo is,like, a cameo,
wi*h about, as, m’ucii expression, But
lie is a sweet JiltIu dear, and will
imake an adorable husband.”
’Which Taller speech was in due
course «>fsimt» repeated lo Mr. Wili-
bank, Mrs. Depotle having decided
that Lenoro was to reign oyer that
sumptuous mansion whose upholstery
was •‘Unlimited.” What ill oh could
heart of woman desire?
But when Saratoga was a void,
and New York was I he arena for
Miss Chase’s conquests, Mr. Wilt-
aiuk had not yet proposed. He was
in John Delorme’s studio, making
iis feeble wail, one January morn
ing, while that artist worked at his
‘•She has such a baffling way with
her,” he said. “Blut lets a fellow
get just so far, and then ho Comes

‘•Frozen?”
“No, she's not cold exactly, oi
Tubglily, bill she has a way of letting
you see she is not in the least idler*
esled. It’s not flirting! By Jove,
she eou.ldu’t flirt. I’d jyist as soon
-xpeet to scu a marble statue of
Minerva flirting, and yet—well!
sometimes 1 tl.ink I’ll just rush iu,'
and have it over. 1 want lo have the
wedding over and get oil lo Europe
before spring rush.”
“You tliiuK she will not except
Von, then?”
Mi. Willbauk looked at. his friend
as if ho seriously doubted his insutii-
|J- .
“Accept me! My dear fellow,
what a question! If liq cun give her
beauty a morueoslly setting? Why,
my whole house is a bat;kground for
her. “Do.bne thing handsomely for
a brunette,” that’s what 1 told the
furniture fellows, und they gave me
criiidsou and old gojd ami ambers,
everything to sail her.
“All of which ydu mug’ say, be
irresistible..”
“By Jove, I think so.”
lie lounged away, presently, and
Tvhen tjid dusk came John Delorme
lofle l id's painting coat, attired him
self as the gentleman of to day, in
faultless dinner dress without one
touch of foppery, and look his way
up town,- to a stalely homo, where
no was expccicd to dine.
it wanted still an hour to the
dinner time when he entered a cosy
room, half library, half boudoir, u
nest of comfort and taste. Lcuore,
all cream color alid' crimson, wu»
seated by an open lire, reading with
listless interest, but as lie entered,
tier dark eye's gldwcu with welco.me,
hex iijM smiled perfect happiness.
“How good of yog to come so
ear y!” sbe said.- “Auntie is napping,
and we can have such u long clmt
before diuner.”
“How good of you to let me
come."
“Sit here, and tell me all yo
been doing lo day. How rfWs the
picture proeiess?’’
“Nm very rapidly. I hare hwr
bothered by visitors all day. M
Harvey Willbauk bestowed fully an
hour upon me.”'
“You poor boy! What a puppy
he is!”
‘But ate voti n'ware that lie has
had his new house upholstered to
suit a bruiiotte wife?”
“Crimson and ambers, aud that
sort of thing!” laughed the lady.
“He has told so. His armor of
vanity is impenetrable But would
it not be as well to let lum know
his money will not buy ovory-
tliihg?”
“As you will, my dearest. Every
body u»ay know, that your aunt has
proved graoiou*,” *
“8hc has no real control over me,
John. It was simply a matter of
opinion.”
“And her opinion is that you are
throwing yotirsell away.”
“Because 1 prefer a tutlllTo a bar

for an extended European trip, of
studying art under Italian skies;

of true manhood a,id sweot, tender
wumunhood drew two souls togoVh-

The next day, in sheer desperution,
Harvey Wiltbank attired hitnsolf in
■ he latest thing in coats, pantaloons
beyond question in stylo, a hut not it
week old, gloves of the exact shade
of tali that w s most lo he desired;
put dainty perfume upon his mono-
punit'd pocket handkerchief; pinned
a half-blown tea rose aud due. fern
leaf in his button hole; selected his
newest cane, and went to the mansion
livic diiiiii muorrrie niia cttiieq nu
dity before. He was received in the
spacious draw ing-rob m by a goddess
in black velvet, and most graciously
received. He bad come resolved to
put. the momentous question, and he
wus not checked. His words of
wooing- were heard in deepest silence,
with profound attention. His des
cription of his house awoke no com
ment. but it was hoard. His ideas
with regard to income, allowance for
dress, carriages, jewels und brio a-
brao, received flattering attention,
and when he had exluiustoil.his ar
guments, ..put ifl liis petition, ho
istened hope fully for u reply.
He did not expect gush; would
have been embarrassed and slightly
disgusted if Miss 0ija.se Imd thrown
herself into his.arms, or let her head
fail upon his button hole bouquet.
But he was not prepared for the
quiet, cool voice, saying:
“Your proposal is a high compli-
molit, Mr. Wihlmnk, for which you
will ueeopi my grutesitl acknowledge-
men's. But mv affections Ht'o n.o
longer free. I have been engaged to
on married for nearly a year to '.Mr.
John Delorme.”
“John Delorme! But. my dear
MissOliase, lie has nothing.”
“Only genius, honor, manliness,
intellect, and culture. ’
“Culture! A fellow whoso coats
are last year's fashion!”
Quite true. I may have to sew
buttons on them in the intervals of
jmddiug-makitig. And I may even
have- to pose upon a pale-blue
background, but we are prepared for
even '.hose'sacrifices, and 1 hope you
will sometimes dine with us, to .lot
prove myself as good a wifons a little
domestic cruuUU'O more in Mr Do
iorme’s styp.*.”

take his departure, which lie did

Mrs. Cleveland is not seeing as
many visitors uf fortnorly, and those
only by appointment. She rides out
nearly every day. A young lady who
is in the habit of calling on her, lolls
me that there is beginning to bo ii
ijtlc air of mystery about i bo domes-
tic Ido of the White Hon so, and
that even the ladies oflho Cabinet
wear a far-away look mid speak id
an indefinite way, when iuk:d about

way of hinting that loo rminy quee*
