Of course we had no authority over the girls but that of affection, but it was a pleasure to have the dear things round us—only when Rosamond, the brighter and prettier of the two, began to have her lovers, we saw that it was a little while we should be able to keep her, and congratulated ourselves that at any rate we should still retain Emma.

Rosamond was nothing like a beauty, and yet she had all the effect of one •he had that rich skin which any color becomes, and her eyes were always beaming, and her unruly hair was always turning np in little carls, and she had the sweetest mouth in the world, and the prettiest ourls in it only her nose was any thing bnt what she wanted it, I suppose she would have gone to extremes, and have bad as keen an aqailine as any hawk-beaked Roman lady's, could she have had her way, for, as it was, she had to make the best of what she tf&lled a ping. As tor Emma, she was simply Rosamond** shadow—not quite so tall, not qaito so plump, not quite so fresb-oofored or early-beaded, and not by any means so ehartning. For Rosamond, with her vivacity, her quick temper and her good heart, her obliging ways, her confiding air, and her singing, certainly was charming, and after she camo home the number of bouquets, In compliment of her singing, that were thrown intoonr ground-floor windows by her feeble-minded young lovers, with courage overwhelmed by infatuation kept os supplied with flowers.

Well, the truth I• that Rosamond was a flirt. Kmma wasn't she ftever had the chance, as Rosamond told her onoe, la answer to the accusation, instantly kissing ber and crying over her and begging all the pardons that there were, and from that moment making over to Emma, so formally as to render it laughable to »s, who twit all, the best bean she had—a proceeding that the beau took in sncn dudgeon that be ossaort to come to the bouse at alL But, as I was saying, Rosamond was a pronounced flirt she bad flirted with lbe serious head-inseter at •ehool, and with the frivolous mualcmaster, and had given the dancing master to understand thai sbe believed him one of the old nobles In disguise, •be had tried her arts on the minister

ng oalla young Dr. Randolph made, •„xf beard the conversations, turning on anything but symptoms, and looked at Rosamond, with her returning oolor, ber amiles sod dimples, her blue wrap, per, and all the dainty appliances of a sick-room toilet, that some instinct taught her and I observed that this seclusion kept other lovers off. And perhaps the latter clause struck Rosamond's perception also, for one day, while the Doctor still continued his yiaita, and without hiving received any permission from him, she descended to tbe parlors, and there, when she came in, be found her, with young M'Creery turning ber tnaslo on one side, and young watorni «u listening *n the other.

What!' cried Dr. Randolph—'in this draught 1 And yoa are not attempting to sing!' 'Ming I' she said, turning on him, *s tbe only thing to do—'I don't believe I shall ever sing again. Year wicked diphtherias and potashes snd things hsve ruined my voice I' And sbe was so charming as she sat there on tbe pi-ano-stool, with her high oolor and her pouting lip, that I didn't wonder the Doctor seised both her bands In bis. He pretended he waa ouly feeling the poise.

What ta this T' said be. 'I beg your pardon. Miss Rosamond you mast bid

It waa not with equanimity that Emma viewed these successes of Rosamond's. 'I wonder,* she would bemoan herself, 'why everybody loves Rosamond and nobody loves me!'

My da*r,» I exclaimed, 'doesn't Rosamond love yon doesn't your cousin Maorioe? don't IT'

Ob, I dare aay,' Emma moaned again 'bnt I want to be tbe first to somebody. Yon love coos'n Maurice better than ine, and be loves you better than uie.and Roaamond Is all ready $o love anybody better than me. Ob, bother that «ort of love I' cried Emma, between langbiog and crying. «lt would be so delightful,' aaid the poor Utile simpleton, 'to be loved tbe way people are when they are engaged!'

While Emma held forth In this way, Dr. Randolph was looking down Rosamond's throat with tbe handle of a •poon—the only thing that ever kept down that little tongue of hers. I thought. Toe dootor, who had just taken oar family physician's jplaoe—Parisian education, talent, and every •art of "recommendation—pronounced Rosamond's illness not serious, hat ordered confinement to her room, and oame twice a day tor

Tbe Chinese way is a great deal better than ours,' she croaked, as he bent over her bear to while I rinsed a medicine cup at the sink 'when you're sick theie they stop the doctor's pay.'

When Randolph oame in again he waa qalte cool and quick and professions!, and was off to see Mrs. Proat very scon. On his way he met young Waterman and M'Creery, and he told them they had nearly teen guilty of murder, and so scared them that they did not come near us for half a year.

It was Bome days before Rosamond had voice enough for more than a dozen words and it was a sad cross, for without her saaoiness sbo was without her best friend, and all shrugs and pouts and smiles and dimples would not answer half her requirements. Bat as soon as ber voice returned, and she began to feel a little more life, she was restive with the up-stalre captivity. It was rather lonesome, for Emma was so afraid of the diphtheria she kept out of tbe way, and after Rosamond bad qaite recovered, and tried, out of pure mischief, to kiss her, she screamed and ran from the room. 'It's abominable in Dr. Randolph to shut me up so,' Rosamend said. 'Cousin Jane,' aaid tbe surprising little creature, 'ho's just doing it to keep me out of the way of otber people. 1 or, do you know, 1 believe the man's in love with me!'

Rosamond, I am ashamed of you!' I •aid. No, you're not,' said she. 'You'd have cried your eyes out—you know yon woo Id—if I had died, and you wouldn't have been at all ashamed of me and I haven't changed since then, except to get bettor. So you see, logically, you can't be ashamed of roe yon ought to study logic, Cousin Jane!' But, after, all,tbe pretty minx had only meant to find out what 1 thought about It—an attempt in which sbe was unsuccessful.

But if Emma thought it was beauti ful, tbat was apparently more than Dr. Randolph did, when, after his first beatitude and a month's engagement to Rosamond, he had not been able to see ber twice alone for, secure in ber possession, Miss Rosamond was playing with it, according to ber wont, and he never came in but he found her old lovers hanging about ber in a loverlike w»v that was terribly exasperating. thought he would put an end to it all ly an Immediate marriage but Rosamoud had no idea of being qiged so early. He remarked on her conduct and she laughed at him he remonstr ated, and sbe shrugged ber shoulders at hit* he was angry, and she told him plainly it was too soon to play the urand Bashaw. And poor Randolph, loving her fervently ana totally unable to master her, instead of being rapturous, grew daily more unhappy.

Bat the attendant of tbem all to whom Dr. Randolph most objected was Mr. Irving. 'Isn't it enough for you,'said he, when Rosamond pressed him for bis rexsons, 'that I don't like him 1 consider him a companion unfit for a lady. And I think, Rosamond, that really have the right to forbid you associating with him.'

That very afternoon a couple of riders dashed by his steady-going gig, aud one of them was Mr. Irving, and one was Rosamond upon Bellerophon.

Dr. Randolph turned about and oame to our bouse, and waited th re till Mr. Irving left Rosamond at the door, and then he met her, and demanded to know the meaning of it,

Really, sir,' said Rosamond, 'this is a surveillance I cannot submit to!' and she drew the gold ring from ber finger and dropped it in his band, and went on up stairs.

It was a fortnight after tbat Maurice met Dr. Randolph In Boston. I came up to see about my change,' he said, In answer to my husband. 'I oan't stay where I was. I must change tbe whole aoene.' And then, as they stood talking a moment,there came the fire-alarm and a rushing crowd, and they followed it, and were separated of ooarae. And the next thing Maurice saw of Dr. Randolph, an hour afterward, he was dashing with tbe firemen. in that useless chivalry of bis, into that building, out of whoso windows ihesheets or fl una were pouring, to save an old woman shrieking thure for help, her gray hair streaming against the fire. And at that very moment the walls toll in with a sound of heaven and earth coming together, and that was all we knew.

THREE TIMES A DAY. Boast as we may of oar superiority over tbe brute oreation, we cannot deny tbat at least half our existence—half of tbat portion which slumber spares us—is spent in pondering upon what we shall eat, preparing it, and devouring it. After that, of course, wo must digest it, and woe to us if we do not spare time for that proeess. Dyspepsia and apoplexy are our punishments. The housekeeper may havo lofty aspirations, but she must deliberate between tbe merits of beef and mutton, and consider tbe number of potatoes which will be needed every morning. She must be filled with consideration ss to the pudding, and consult with tbe cook about the tomatoes, or suffer the agonies that assail the bouse mistress when the dish will not "go round." No sooner is dinner swallowed than tea absorbs the soul. No sooner is tea dispatched than the cook asks "What's for breakfust?" Breakfast, lunch and dinner are tbe American woman's anxieties. Breakfast, lunob, dinner and tea and supper follow the English woman through ber day. And the man, let him bo ever so busy, grows hungry. He must feed himself. He must eat to live, even if he oare not what he eats. It is a law of nature. Byron did not like to see a woman eat. though one never hears that he fasted himself. It 4s not a pretty sight. Fat cheeks bulge, and thin jaws work unpleasantly. People talk with their mouths full, and interrupt each others brilliant speeches with, "Hard me the saltor "Butter,

An occasional delicate feast, would, perhaps, be delightful but to be com peiled to stuff at least three times day, puts one to tbe blush. It can't be made a beautiful thing by any sort of reasoning, It is a great hindrance to any long continued effort, to extended
