STONE'S LOVE AFFAIR.

A CHARMIMC, STORY.

It was agreed on all hands that Ned Sions was a very practical fellow. He had been very poor at one time in his life, and had to work very hard. His industry had in the end. however, met its due jeward. At middle age he was comfortably circumstanced. When he announced to his friends, therefore, that he thought of taking unto himself a wife, it was thought generally that the step he meditated was a prudent and proper one. And when he further stated that he had made an offer of his hand to one Georgiana Warren, the daughter of a wealthy merchant, and that his offer had been accepted by the lady, we, of course, hastened to tender our heart felt congratulations on the occasion.

Ned Stone spoke of the matter in his own sober, simple way: "Well, you know, I'm getting OH,' he •aid, "and if I'm ever to marry it's about time I should think of setting about

"You've been very kind. I'think I shall be very happy—in fact I don't doubt it—as happy as a fellow has aright to cxpect to be. One has not a right to ex,pect too much of course.' But I'm quite Vond in my way of this Georgiana »Varren, and I think that she in her way is fandofine she is not too old not too good looking nor yet too plain she is sensible and accomplished enough, and I don't see why she «hould not make a ood wife, and similiarly I don't see whj' shouldn't make a gooid husband. Perhaps I'm not very fonci of old Warren the father, and perhaps he isn't fond of me. But I don't know as that may matter much. I dare say we shall understand each other better by and by in the meantime I mult try and make the best of the old man's humor, and not run counter to him mere than I can avoid.

And it seems to me that the oid fellow would be no fonder of anybody else ,who would want to marry his daughter thaii he is of me. You see its our affair— Georgiana's and mine—and not hi» though it is hard to make him see it in that light But I dare say it will c®me right in the end. That's what I tell Georgiana when she takes up with rather gloomy view's of her father's temper. She has good sense, and, I think, looks at the matter very much as I do—only, of course, she can't help feeling

It will be seen that Ned Stone was not a lover to "sigh like a furnace." As for writing a woeful ballad to his tnis:ress' eyebrows I don't think he csuld have accomplished such a feat even if his life depended upon doing so. The thcrmome -ter of his love stood at temperate, with no tendency of an upward rise. "The marks of love," as they are generally understood, were not discernible in him.

He never said a word as to the agitated slate of his breast, nor to the excite.ment of his feelings. He did not regard Miss Warren as an angel or a goddess.

Probably he would have been the first to contradict an allegation that might have been mads to the effect that she was anything of the kind. Miss Warren appeared to him what she seemed to everybody else—a nice sensible English girl. I called upon Stone one evening. He was alone. He looked a little grave, and held a 6mall sealed packet. We discussed various indifferent subjects then I inquired concerning Miss Georgiana.

4'Oh,you

haven't heard?" he answered.

'But ol courre ou couldn't have heard. The affair is off. Our engasement has comc to an end." "You don't mean that?'' I asked in surprise.

Yes, the thing's broken off, as people say." "It's a bad job, and I am sorry for it, but it can't be helped."

Had the lady-resented his serenity andscharged him?" I asked myself. As though he had heard the question, he went on: It's the old man's doings I hope he's satisfied now. He's the most vinreasonaple and Uigagreeable old fellowl ever had the misfortune to meet with." "But what did he do?" "Well, we fell out about fhe settlement that was where the hitch arosed I'm sure I did all I could to please him. I gave up condition after condition, quite in opposition to the advice of my Solicitor. I told him to settle what money he proposed to settle on his daughter—it wasn't much after all just as he pleased I didn't want to touch a penny of it. He might settle it, I told him, just as he pleased, or he might settle nothing at all upon her, if h= liked that better. It was his daughter I wanted and not his money. And for my part I'd take care my wife would never come to want. I undertook to insure my life for a large amount, and to assign the policy to trustees for her benefit, in case of my death covenanting, ot course, to pay up the insurance in the regular way. I thought that a fair agreement, but it did not content him.

He wanted to tie my hands completely. He hadn't a hap'orth of confidence in me. He gave me no o-edit for any sort of affection for his daughter. He insisted that any money that I might in the future become possessed of I should convert into the settlement. Of course I could not consent to it. I had my business to consider. Of course my wife and children—if I have any—will reap the benefit as much as I shall. However, he wouldn't listen to me. I told Georgiana exactly how the taatter stood. She's of age. I asked her if she would marry me without her father's consent.—Poor girl, she was in an awful way. But she did not care do do that. She don't like to offend her father. So there's no help for it—the affairs broken off, and I'm not to be married, it seems—not this time at any sate." ,, He spoke rather* sorrowfully, but still without the slightest trace of anger. -1 endeavored to console him in a commonplace sort of a way.

He opened a small packet ,he had been holding in his hand. "This is pleasant," said ne quietlyj "here are all my letters to Georgiana.'— Ah, here is a little present I gave her ent back to me." here were not many letters. Their etents, I guessed, we re little enough cuve r.io nl lore letters, probably

sjJSfc-,

unecstatic compositions, yet manly and to the point, and unecstatic enough, the present was a ring— a large diamond heavily set in pure gold, just the valuable simple substantial present I would have expected Ned Stone to select for his betrothed. "And now I'suppose Georginana will expect me to send back all the letters she sent me." "Undoubtedly." "That is usual when engagements come to an end." "Certainly, it is the usual way."

He rubbed his chin and seemed to reflect a little. "Have a cigar," he said presently, "and lei us talk about something else. This is net jhe most agreeable subject in the world. Tell me what you have been doing with yourself lately.''

So we fell to talking about this, that and the other Presently, when I went away, he said 'quietly: "I think I shall try to see Georgianna once more for a particular reason."

I did not ask for his particular reason and he did not tell me. A few nights afterwards I saw him again. He was no time subject to much change of ITIDDJ, or at any rate seldom betrayed any variation of that kind.— But he seemed in better spirits than usual. "You did not mention," he said "what I told you the other night—that my engagement was broken off."

I explained that I had not mentioned it for a very good reason. I had not seen any one whom it would interest to be in formed of the fact. "It is just as well," he said' "because it isn't broken, or I had better to say ii is on again. "I told you I should try to see Georgiana again. Well, I knew she often, with her father and other relatives and frieuds went to the Zoological Gardens on Sunday. So I went to the ZoologicGaraens. I toon discovered her with Warren and a lot of people. She saw me and understood by my signs that I wanted to speak with her on the quiet. Well, she lingered behind a little, and when she rest of the party went to see the kangaroos, she slipped back wijh me into the snake house, She looked a little frighteped, and tears stood in her eyes. "So I put my arm around her—it didn't matter to me/ who saw, you know —and told her there was nothing to be alarmed at, and alSo that I only wanted to apeak a word or two. I told her I was sorry I hadn't sent.back her letters as I ought to have done, but that the plain fact of the matter was, I couldn't do it." "You love me stiH, Ned?" said she. "Of course I do," I said. -'Who's been telling yon I didn't?"

Shi began crying terribly. "Come, Georgy, I said, "let us get married whether papa likes it or not. Only say the word." "She didn't say the word. Poor child, she couldn't speak a word for crying and she looked at me with a little nod, and then she began laughing through her tears. It was the prettiest sight I ever saw. Of course I kissed her and then I turned around, aHd who should I see 6tandidg close by my side but old Warren. "Georgy gave a little scream, and then tried to make believe we were looking at the boa constrictor. But of course that didn't work, so I said to old Warren in a cheery sort of a way, and putting out my hand cheerily: "Mr. Warren, Georgy and I are going to be married that's quite settled. But you and I may as well be friends the same. We'd much rather have your consent than not. Suppose you give it to us."

He was so astonished that before he knew quite what he wos doing, he'd taken my hand, with all his friends standing near and looking on. Of course he could not go back after that. And—and so—the thing was settled."

I congratulated him heartily. Presently I said by chance "How lucky it was that you didn't send back Miss Warren's letters." "My dear fellow, that was what I wanted to explain to her I couldn't send them back," "You found them too dear to you?"

At last, then, he had been betrayed into a feeling of romance. "Not at all," he exclaimed, "I could not send them back, because I hadn't kept them. I'd destroyed them." "Yes. What was the good of them? I only keep business letters they are regularly docketed at my office. But for Georgy's letters, they were no use. It was no good keeping them—I made them into pipe lights." •. "You didn't tell her that?" "No—I hadn't time. I never arrived at", my explanation about the letters." "Then don't at least for the present." "Why shouldn't I "Don't you see She thought you didn't send them back for a sentimental reason because you couldn't part with them, and so in point of fact that misunderstanding of hers led to the re-es-tablishment of your lave affair." "Do you think so he asked musingly. "But if Georgy has made any mis take in regard to the matter, I think that I am bound to set her right." "My dear Stone, take my advice, for fear of accident set her right—after the wedding ceremony, not before."

Whether or not he took my advice I'm not aware. He 'Was married in due course to Miss Warren and I know that the lady was often heard to declare subsequently that she married the best husband in the world. ii
