And He Sat.

He sat at her feet in quiet peace. He‘ looked into her face and said softly: “Ah, dear, I could sit hare forever.” “Could you, love?” answered she.*" “Yes, Sweet.” “You are right sure you could, darling?” “I know it, myi own.” “ Very well, then, you sit there, for I have an engagement to go out with young Mr. Fitzspooner, and I won’t be back this evening. Turn down the ggs and fasten the nigh Match when you go away. Ta, ta, dear.” And she went out, leaving him in an awful solitude of

her goneness and his bitter disappointment.—Steubenville He* aid.
