MOLLIE’S FIRST LOVER,
“That’s a smart boy of G.roetf’s,” 1
said Mr. Huvl in, taking hir -cup of
Coffeo from his wife’s hand ; Kit
really scorns a pity lio cannot hare
some opportunity for education/’
“Jf the Greens were not so' wrotch-
cdly poor !” said Mrs. Ilarlin ; “bat
Jack is the oldest of sovon, and lie’s
not fifteen years old jot. It was not
so bad while Mrs. Green could lake
in washing, but, she is perfectly crip
pied with rheumatism. Even the
little which .Tack earns about this
place is an object to thorn.”
Just then Moltfe came in. Mo!
was eighteen ; a little, fairy-1 ike girl
witli eyes like bits of slimmer sky-
and curls like corn-silks. The darl
ing of "her parents, tho pot of all
wlip knew her ; simple, loving amt
tender was Mollio Ilarlin.
“Papa,*’ she said, “Jack wilj
soon know more than liis teacher.” .
‘Meaning yourself1” ’
‘Yes. When I lout him all my,
old school-books, and offered to help
him every evening, I had no idee
how he was going to devour the mb”
I was just saying to your mother
that Jack" ought to go to school.”
“lie ought,” said Mollie, omplm-
ticHlIy, “hut he can’t bo spared at
home. Ho helps his father ami
leads him about, and he is as handy
as a woman about,lho house. Ido
not- see how Mr. Green can do with
out him.”
Jack was riot .’it strong boy. Over*
woik and poor food Inid weakened
still further,,a constitution never
very robust. ^nnA often, bvhon he had
a leisure hohr,; AVeakpeiip was domi
nant and' ho fell <asleep over his
hook. ■$£$*
Only a boy ! Not quite fifteen,
but with the responsibility of a man
on his yonrjg shoulders, and alas !
the heart of a man in his young
bosom. Not for tho sako of the
knowledge gained did ho spend •ev
ery leisure hour pouring over his
books, and, as Mollio said, “devour
ing” their contents, but liqbauso his
one ambition was to draw nearer to
her by gaining t,lic manners and ed
ucation of a gentleman.
It was on a glorious summer
morning tlpU Jack lmd gone to thy
poat-olficO' for Mr. Ilarlin ; and
having taken that genilcrmin’s mail
was returning to leave tho building,
when tho postmaster called him
hack.
I had almost forgotten to give
yon your father’s letter.” ho said,
placing a large envelope in the lad’s
hand; ! : “I hope is Iras gbbd news in
it.”
“Thank you.” Jack answered,
wondering wherelhe_. letter could
conic front, an
Mr. IIor
to see what great news nad come to
his mvn people.
Groat news' it. proved to be—a
lawyers letter, containing ' the an
nonncement of : tho death/ !bf a ^ifc
Green’s only brother, whn/riuYl left
to him an irioomo that to the
was nnbonndod wealth.''*'It' took
-sonnHittlc time to foedver' frog
brcathleis amazement, tot realize tlia
the wonderful nows was true, but
they could do, ho could do, ho told
himsolf ; and so, in a tiny, cell-likc
room lie pored over his hooks.
Many hard problotns wore solved by
patier.t and forco of will, many les
sons learned by proseveranco, and
difficulties conquered by earnest
resolution.
Alone in a great city, with . no
loving eyes ta watch him, no loving
heart to tremble for him, Jack stud
ied with nn utter disregard of tho
most ordinary sanitary precautions.
Taken from mV ou t door ’Mo of so-"
•vero.labor,, where-oncry muscle was
kept in liotive motion, where lfpijrsi
of work also included hours spent in
pure* open ah*, whobe his food, scan*
ty, it is true, was yot wholpRome
and nourishing, ho failed to give
heed to irihiiiy" Warning that, the
change was too sudden, too violent
for health., Shut up in a class room
ftfrfive hours every day, ho refused
gently hiiti:firmly to join in any of
the ow tdoor recreations of his com -
pauions, hnnibly pleading tho'/neccs-i
sity of'constant sthdy to gain tho
position ho craved in his classes.,
And while hisfollow-stiuleuts forgot
hooks for hours, in ciioketing, boat
ing, ridmg or walking, Jack shut
himself up in Jvis room, and worked
bis already over taxed brain until, in
sboer weariness, it often refused to
answer to his demands upon it.
Holidays found him at hotnp, and
his mother did worry a littlo ..over

all hoi* cares, Mrs, Green, in ht*r
now prosperity, found a little time
to/hilihU her Own nilmonts, unheed
ed, in the. days whenprovothy com-
pe^led;'6xeyfionsii. She suffered from
irlieumatio pain, and Jaek was a loy-
tg, tender nurse, when at homo,
saying nothing of his own restless
eights and often painful Lours.
It would all be well, ho told him
self, when., his college honors won,
he could conic borne and rest in his

dearly won progress ho was making,
proud to see how his fuco hud be

In four years lie hud grown from
boy to man, early developed in many
respects, and with a grave, gentle
miinnor, better suited to forty years-
pf-life than to nineteen. And in
these four years ho had not once
seen Mollie, though he knew from
his mother she was Mollie Ilarlin
still.

months when prolty Mollio was with

Jack also came homo. It was not,,
a voluntary visit, but. a stern per
emptory order from a physician that
lmd made Jack turn his fnoo home
ward. Not until compelled liy
deadly weakness, had Jack consult
ed a physician, and tho orders had
been brief and unalterable.
“Perfect rest, total cessation of
study, country air and gentlo exoij-

It was tho wook after his retnvn
when Ihs mother camo keeping to

“Cqrtainly,” said Mollie, ploas-r
antly, “let him oomc up this aftori
noon.” i
“Ah, Miss Mollie, ho can never
como to you 1 Ho is dying 1”
For a moment tlio girl’s heart
scorned to stand still. Never boforc
hail she been snmmonded to a sick;
room, nover to'look on denth.
“It was the books killed him,”
sohhod Mrs. Greon. “Rend, read,
rend ! Every diiy and half tho night!
Will yon como, Miss Mollio ? I
must ho going.”
Wondering why Bho should bo
thus summoned, but not willing, to

ho. wrapped hereolf in her furs and

dike the sun-burned boy she remem;
bored as was tho cheerful room un

imagination had pictured.
“How kind you . are to come !”
Jack’s feeble voice whispered, as lie
stretched out a thin, white hand to
meet tho one sho extended.
•it am so sorry to find ynn ill,”
«ho said, very gentle, for oven to
her experience tho husky voice and
cold, dummy hand seemed a derfth-

“Very ill !”. he answered ; “till my
hopes vain, all my life wasted,”
“Oh, no !” sho cried, shocked at
tho despairing tono.
“But. you will hear mo,” ho said,
“because I am dying. Perhaps, if
I had lived, yon might have been
angry Unit I lovod you. I see more
clearly now, lying hero, the differ
