People were not twrprieed at thk, btit wlien they heard that Kate Keki was going to teaeh mathemilios at the female bemiflary, then tno public amaxetl. It began to pity Mrs. Keid a little. The Doctor juuathave beea terribly in debt, or the place nort ii . i ., i gageu, lor oiuerwiee it w oumi not nave peek neoe&sary for Kate to teach school. Too had for her, poor thing, juet 20, and go bright and so good looking, to be eWiged to toil from 9 to 12 with a parcel of atunid ffirls at tlie Seminary. In reality," however, Kate win not obliged 1 !k ..11 U..4. l.! lo uu lb at Jin, mil, uaing n. jimn; wuw an of rather independent ideas, she fan oied that to have sLx nuniirea aoiiars a year, all-her own, would not be a diea- ' greoahle senewtion to experience; She wae net needed particularly in the do nteMie department at liome ; in fact, like a Ood many other bright and agreeable unmarried women, she was not needed anywhere to any extent. So it eatae about that he taught the Serainary rirls arithmeUc, algebra, and geometry, and, thoesh it was rather tryintr to the patience once in a white, on the whoie, she very ratteh Mked tiraimnr the viMtn? idea. - One day in December, site walked home as usual at 12 o'clock, and pro oeeded directly into the parlor. Sitting by the window she ?aw Howard WinsJow, a mHiuje-Mgeu gentleman ot pleas ant appearance, who rose ami shook hamltt with Kate cordially, and stood and talked to her h she warmed her feet and hands. You never would hare gueeaed from the greeting that these two people were laboringunder the sentimental bonds of an esgageinent, but sneh was the fact. They had been en ;ed over a month. To be sure H had en a very prosaic aitair, lor titey nau .-known and liked each oilier always. Winslow finally came to the conclusion that lie might as well jret married. He had money enough and was old enough, surely, being nearly 40 j and as he and Katenad alw-ays been very good friends, he sat down ,in his Kewl ork office, one ilay, and wrote her a dropbsal. Wlien ahe received it,' she wae a little s-mueed and a if real deal' sirjiriel, but n she liked Howard, she sat down straightway, also, and' wrote an .aceeptance. KTotking romantic aboat' this, but I hlye aH heretical idea that Very happy marriages are often the result of jut such eigngemnts. " No, I dwn't oo me up from New York merely 'to see you," said Winslow, in aawer to Kate's rpteetkm; "but on baeineM about the new railroad; Ami, by the way, one of the otril engineers, Ed. Kaeeon, at work here, js an ehl friend of mine. ' lie's very clever as to hk profession, and is a 'gentleman through and through.'

When i slut wnki. un to t.Wn faot, that she was t practising for Kasson's express benefit,! she was ashamed of herself, and took her writ at mental discipline, and wrote Howard such an affectionate letter that the recipient was nearly struck dumb with surprise. 1 He was to return in the latter part of , March, but long before that time Kate realized, very keenly that she was in j love with Edward Kasson. She felt i much distressed istrcssed thereat on Howard i Willow's account, for tltough she had told him frankly she did not love him, nevertheless to love some one etae was certainly dishonorable. Kasson was miserable also. He was a gentleman, and therefore would have evenimr. accidentally.

Then tn result would be, Kate 'would hare no lover at ,all. A vision of old-maidenhood rose up before her a vision of loHety yeans at school -teaching, over " which she would grow gray and .crabbed. Kate did not share De Quincey'a notion that the higher the civilization the more old niahia there will be. Site had no wish for a life-long virginity. She could not solve her problem at all, but she finally did send Howard a most friendly note, telling him ahe.oeuld not marry him because she loved some one el.e. The evening after she" sent that note, there eame in for a oali the minister's wife, Mrs. Yaa Yleok, and a little later. Edward Kaseoa Kate had just written a letter-to her bosom friend, Millieent Saeppard, and the elwnp the pen and ink, sttil She fingered, the letter llrs.

It took but a second to thrust the letter to Millieent into the envelope directed to Kaseon. Then she handed it to him with a smile, saying as she did so "Here are your commands."

Kaseon read no more. He underMood now that Kate had handed him the wrong note. He glanced on the table, and saw the other note. In a second he had put the letter to 5 Millicent in tlie ngtit envelope, ami was reading his absurd " commands" when the ladies re-entered. It was a hard minute for Kate, but she was a good actress. Not a dash of color reddened her cheek as she turned to Kasaon, and said Can yon perform your multifarioue ibuti fA Kt .lim Plmro'tiS" She saw that he had his own note in his bands, ami she understood and loved him for what lie had done. This square-facrd, clumsy man had some-thing-of a woman's delicacy and qUick - wittexl tact. "I rarely have received orders so pleasant to perform," lie said, with double meaning to his words, which he had no idea Miss. Keid understood.
