NIAGARA COUNTY NEWS. VOL. 2. YOUNGSTOWN, NIAGARA CO., N. Y., JUNE 2, 1882. NO. 14. A Tobacco Song. Come old and young and hear me tell How strong tobacco smokers smell, Who love to smoke their pipes so well. That for tobacco they will sell That l ight to social union. And you can tell when they aro near, Though not a word from them you hoar; They lovo their pipes so very dear, Their breath grows stronger overy year While in this smoking union. They clean their pipe-stem with a wire, Then (111 the hole and put in fire And smoke until it does expire; And never do they seem to tiro 111 this laborious union. Sometime from five to six you see, Collected In ono company, A nd every person In full glee, They then must havo a smoking spree— A fetid smoking union. Sometimes within thoir neighbor's door, They there will tell of pleasures o'er, And spit upon the hearth or floor Until it spreads a foot or more, And still they are liking union. When they are sail they'll chew mnch more Than they have ever done before, And yet their troubles aro not o'er,— Tobacco makes their tongues so sore, They cannot sing good union. Oft the cuds so large within, Tho juice runs out and down the chin, And there we see tho filth again, The mouth's too full to hold It in And sing a pretty union. At tho church wo sometimes view, The slobbers run a foot or two, For persons there will spit and chow Enough to make a buzzard spew, And sing tho heavenly union. Some ladies dip tobacco snuff, While others have a pipe and puff, And others chew the nasty stuff, And all thoir mouths look bad enough To sing a filthy union. If people had the money lent, That for tobacco they have spent, So many need not have to rent, Gut live at home with much content And dwell in peace uud union. They then could pay thoir preachers well, Anil hear tho truths that ho might tell To sinners on tho way to hell, Inviting them with God to dwell And llvo with Christ in union. The preacher too, might quit tho weed, Front such expense bo always freed, And much less money then he'd need, Anil lu nicer things could load And talk to us of union. We'd not then soo him In tho stand, There acting like a filthy man, Who spits u]Min the desk as grand As though ho owned all Caiman's land Before ho preaches union. His lady, too, might quit tho stuff, I.ay down hor pipe and all her snuff: Their path would then not bo so rough, And still thoir children have enough Without tobacco union. Come one nnd all and quit the trade, And try to be of nicer grade, And road your Bibles in tho shade, And then you'll soo you are better paid Than in "this costly union.

Wily can't we have a base ball clublu Youngstowu I Wo usod to boast the boat club around these parts, and surely there is as much muscle here now as there was then. The following shows the position of the league ball clubs up to the 2t'Ah ult.: A Beautiful Young Lady's Ruse. To say the sun hail boon hot would not In tho least do us justice. It had shone, from early morning until night; not even the smallest cloud had interfered to moderate its heat, and now that tho hour had come, when, according to established usage, it must set, it seoms to have gathered all its energy for a final effort, and hangs in the western sky like a ball of fire, lighting up Nahant's beach for a long stretch,and reflecting in tho placid water an image almost as brilliant as tho original. Tho scene is really beautiful, but poor humanity has suffered bo much from that luminary, that it is totally unable to appreciate its parting saluto. One poov mortal is devoutly grateful, and sits on tho piazza of the principal hotel, his chair tipped back, his foot on tho ruling, and a cigarette in his mouth, contemplating tho sunset with decided satisfaction. At this moment another individual appeared on the scene. Tho new comer is a man of about live and twenty years. His light hair falls 011 a broad intellectual forehead, his mouth is sensitive, and the upper lip is adorned with a moustache that men take genuine delight in. His oyes are quite blue, in which there is a drift of humor; altogether the face is very pleasing, and the huge stalwart figure which accompanies it makes tho man worth looking at. This is Reymond Leister. His companion is entirely different. Jack Hastings' friends never ventured to call him handsome. His eyes are largo and dark, and havo in them a dissatisfied expression. Ho does not revel, as does Loistor, in a fine, moustache, his face is smooth, and his mouth is perhaps a trifle large, but his teeth are lino, and with Jack Hastings one foels like racking his brain for something to provoke Iris mirth afresh. Jack Hastings is a favorite, and this summer ho is a hero, for he has a history, and all tho young ladies aro dovoutly interested in him in cousequonco. Last winter tho news came to Jack that an undo in England had died and left him a considerable fortune on condition that lie marry a neice of tho old man, who had lived with her uncle over since her infancy, and in case of his not complying, tho fortune reverted to the neice. Now, Jack had nover been over-burdened with luero, and tho idea of having a fortune was not in tho least objectlonol to him, but the incumbrance was not all to his taste. Up to tho time that tho news came of tho will, Jack had been heart wholo, and his friends however, thought him a lucky fellow, for Miss Helen Isabelle Loighton was said to be a beauty, but as the young lady had never visited America it was rather difficult to say whence came this important information, 'jack had made no decided objection, so it was arranged that the young lady accompanied by her aunt, after u .short tour through tho continent, was to start for America and was expected to arrive about the middle of September. Miss Leighton's aunt resided in Boston, and shortly after her arrival in that city s'lo was to give a reception, tho purpose being to present Jack Hastings to his future bride. Jack had been informed of all these ar rangcments, but had taken little interest in them. As he must become a benedict ho had determined to make the best of tho time left him; but tho fates were against him. A fow weeks after his advent at tho beach he had fallen desperately in lovo with a young lady stopping at ono of tho cottages. In consequence of this Jack fully believed himself ono of the most deeply injured mortals 011 the face of tho earth, hence tho dissatisfied expression in tho young gentleman's eyes, as he looked towards the cottage which holds the object of his adoration. "For a person who has just had a fortune thrown at his head, you are about as disconsolate as a fellow can be," said Raymond; butuusJack made noresponso, ho continued, "I say. Jack, don't you like it? 'Like it ?' said Jack, turning fiercely on him, "I like the fortune, but who would liko to have a girl thrown at his head; would you?' "That depends altogether on the size of tiio girl," replied Raymond, smoothing his hair, and laughing at his friends eagerness, "but to be serious, Jack, I would not get entangled wittaaflyono until I had seen Miss Loighton, and I should put a stop to my visits to the cottage, for pretty Miss Nellie's sake, if I were you." Jack looked aftor tho retreating figure and then utterly regardless of his friend's advice walkod off in tho direction of the cottage. Miss Nellie long had been exi>ecting him. She lay in a hammock, her hands resting listlessly in her lap; white soft hands, that were strangoi's to labor." Her white dress just escaped the ground as she swayed ludly in tho soft summer twilight. Her head was covered with a shower of golden curls and her complexion was as fair as a baby's. Her eyes were large and bluo, and just at present were fixed rather anxiously on the road where Jack would first appear. He was late and she luul almost given him up, when the stalwart figuro appeared strid- 1 ing along toward tho cottage. A smile of satisfaction pla\ ed around the pretty mouth which breaks iuto a merry laugh as Jack leaps the low fence anil stamls by her side. Raking her eyes to his she says: "You could not stay away, could you, Jack, dear!'* Ho stoops to kiss her but she pushed his 1 face away and says gently, "You must not doit, Jack; I feel quite sure Miss Loighton would object." "Confound Miss Loighton,"' says Jack, as he throws himself on the ground. 'That is what I say, but that does not alter in the least tho facts of the case." "I have told you, Nellie, a dozen times that I never will many her." I know it but I am horrible jealous of her. j and cannot get her out of my mind, night or j day, aud 1 know you think about her all the time, now don't you, Jack!' and she bends forward till her eyes are looking straight in eft his; and then as he made no reply, 'I do wish you would smile, Jack, I ant trying so hard to delude myself Into tho belief that you are handsome, aud I never can if you look like that.' Taking no notice Of her last remark, Jack straightened himself up and says with decision, 'I have made up my mind—' 'To marry Miss Leighton? interrupted Nellie, doing her best to squeeze a few tears into her eyes. Nellie is a coquette, but to do her justice, she Is very fond of Jack. 'I have made up my mind,' repeated Jack. 'Well, you said so before,' impatiently. '1 have made up my mind,' again repeated Jack, slowly, ' to write to Miss Leighton and tell hor that owing to a previous attachment I am unable to comply with the conditions of my uncle's will.' 'Jack, yon dear, old darling,' giving his hand a little squeeze, at which a smile lights up Jack's plain face, but it vanquished on j hearing her next words. 'How about tho fortune, Jack?' 'Hang the fortune,' repeated the young ' man, and then as she looks dubious, 'Nellie, you don't care about the money?' 'No, but—' 'But what? 'A little monoy is very nice to have, but Jack, I had evor so much rather have you,' smoothing bis forehead with her cool soft hand. • , I "1 know you would, Nellie; now when shall It bo, dear?" "Oh, not boforo you havo seon Miss Leighton.""But I nover shall soo hor, she will not want to soc me after sho receives my letter." "Oh, but I would rather you should." Jus imagina your seeing her after out marriage and falling iti lovo with hor, I should die, Ji ck," and this tijno there are tears in tho bl uo eyes, but whether of grief or with mirth Jack cauuoti tell. All his persuasion cannot move her, and so ho loaves her. As sho watches his retreating figuro her face dimples and smiles; sho is quite suro of her conquest, now, and is a little less jealous of Miss Leighton. The weeks sped swiftly by, and the second week in September had arrived. In two days Jack is to meet Miss Loighton, for notwithstanding his letter, her guardian has son! word that he thinks it advisable for the young people to meet, Miss Leighton is anxious to make some arrangement about tho property, and next Wednesday is set for tho meeting. Ho has taken his farewell of Nellie, after swearing eternal fidelity, but sho is not fully convinced. Bho has pictured Miss Loighton in glo#ing colors as a beauty, with dark flashing eyes and a statoly figure, for since she Is a relative of Jack's, Nellie cannot get the idea out of hor heflSl that sho is a brunette, and is certain that Jack will fall in lovo with tho young lady on the spot. Sho ends by asking him in pathetic tones. "What will thou bo left for me to do," adding to Juck's misery. The night hits at last ai-rived, aud Jack has spent a longor time than usual on his toilet and feels in a dissatisfied mood as ho rides along towards Beacon street. At last the carriage stops. Jack is admitted and shown ' into a small reception room by a servant in I livery, Ho bears tho low strains of a waltz, but his attention is instantly caught by a portrait which hangs over the mantle. It is the portrait of a lady, tho face Is proud and intelligent, the eyos are large, dark and* brilliant; instinctively Jack knows that it is a picture of Miss Leighton, and he to himself as ho recalls Nellie's description of hor. Ho hears tho rustle of a silk dress In tho hall and tho original of tho portrait, only prouder, handsomer, If possible, is standing beside him. For a moment, Jack rcmaindod motionless his breath almost taken away by the suddenness of her abearance. All of his lino speeches fly to tho four winds. 'I,—l believe you wish to see me,' he stammered' Yes.'Her voico was low and contrasted strangely with his. ' Mr Cary, my guardian thought it best, as be wished you to know that it is over half a million that you are refusing when you refuse to—when you refuse tho alliance,' A soft flush covers face and throat, as she speaks. She is very beautiful and so Jack must admit. His thoughts fly back to a golden head, and not for a moment does ho falter in his allegiance. 'I am unable to comply, as I am to be married to Miss Long in two weeks.' A smile curls the lady's lips. 'Yes, to Mr. Cary informed me, and wo have decided to inako over to you u jxirtion of the fortune, for which I have had a deed of gift made out.' .She said this hi a sarcastic way, as she handed him the paper. Something in tho tone offends Jack and taking the paper lie deliberately tears it up and throws It into the grate, 'I am obliged to you, Miss Leighton, but you must excuse me if 1 decline your gift.' Utterly unprepared for this contingency, the lady stamls staring at hjfii. Feeling rather awkward, and not knowing what to do, Jack bows and takes his leave. Tho lady hides her face in her hanas and cries? no, laughs! Her mental observation is that he must be ia love. Then sho returns to her guests, not without a feeling of mortification that, not only has she been rejected herself, but her gift lias been Indignantly thrown at her feet by this haughty young man. Jack has told Nellie everything, and Nellie at last convinced of his constancy, is all the fondest lover could wish. They aro to be married in a week; Jack has bought a small house and furnished It as well as his means will permit. Nellie has been over and declares it to bo tho loveliest, cosiest house in the World. Tho wedding Is to be very quiet; they are to have a few friends at the house, among others Keymoud Leister, who mentally sets Jack down as the biggest fool on record. It seoms as if nature had made a particular effort on that day, or at least Nellie thinks so as sho returns homo from church with now her husband, to their cosy little home. As they enter they aro met by a servant who hanils them two cnrils, on which uro written, "Miss Loighton and Mr. Cary;" Jack became dignified feeling quite certain they have como to renew tho offer of tho money as a wedding present, and he firmly determined to refuse it us bluntly as before. Nellie, for the first time In her life, is seized with bashfulnoss aud l>egS hor husband to go In alone, but ha will not hoar Of this for a moment, and putting his arm reassuringly around hor, walks iuto the room and up to Miss Leighton. 'Miss Leighton,' he begins, ' allow mo to present to you—' when ho stops. Nellie has slipped from his arm and is seated on the sofa laughing in anything but a dignified manner. Jack looks from ono to tho other in bewildermout. Nellie finally tukingpity on him, slips hor hand through tho lady's arm and, leading her up to Jack, says: 'Mr. Hastings, allow mo to present to you my aunt, Mrs. Leighton.' 'And you,' stammered Jack. 'Mrs. Jack Hastings, at your service.' Making a low courtesy turns to tho old gon tleman, and taking both his hands, says gravely 'I told you, Mr. Cary, he should not marry ma for my money, and I don't think ho has.' Sadly Afflicted.

NIAGARA COUNTY NEWS. VOL. 2. YOUNGSTOWN, NIAGARA CO., N. Y., JUNE 2, 1882. NO. 14. A Tobacco Song. Come old and young and hear me tell How strong tobacco smokers smell, Who love to smoke their pipes so well. That for tobacco they will sell That l ight to social union. And you can tell when they aro near, Though not a word from them you hoar; They lovo their pipes so very dear, Their breath grows stronger overy year While in this smoking union. They clean their pipe-stem with a wire, Then (111 the hole and put in fire And smoke until it does expire; And never do they seem to tiro 111 this laborious union. Sometime from five to six you see, Collected In ono company, A nd every person In full glee, They then must havo a smoking spree— A fetid smoking union. Sometimes within thoir neighbor's door, They there will tell of pleasures o'er, And spit upon the hearth or floor Until it spreads a foot or more, And still they are liking union. When they are sail they'll chew mnch more Than they have ever done before, And yet their troubles aro not o'er,— Tobacco makes their tongues so sore, They cannot sing good union. Oft the cuds so large within, Tho juice runs out and down the chin, And there we see tho filth again, The mouth's too full to hold It in And sing a pretty union. At tho church wo sometimes view, The slobbers run a foot or two, For persons there will spit and chow Enough to make a buzzard spew, And sing tho heavenly union. Some ladies dip tobacco snuff, While others have a pipe and puff, And others chew the nasty stuff, And all thoir mouths look bad enough To sing a filthy union. If people had the money lent, That for tobacco they have spent, So many need not have to rent, Gut live at home with much content And dwell in peace uud union. They then could pay thoir preachers well, Anil hear tho truths that ho might tell To sinners on tho way to hell, Inviting them with God to dwell And llvo with Christ in union. The preacher too, might quit tho weed, Front such expense bo always freed, And much less money then he'd need, Anil lu nicer things could load And talk to us of union. We'd not then soo him In tho stand, There acting like a filthy man, Who spits u]Min the desk as grand As though ho owned all Caiman's land Before ho preaches union. His lady, too, might quit tho stuff, I.ay down hor pipe and all her snuff: Their path would then not bo so rough, And still thoir children have enough Without tobacco union. Come one nnd all and quit the trade, And try to be of nicer grade, And road your Bibles in tho shade, And then you'll soo you are better paid Than in "this costly union.

Wily can't we have a base ball clublu Youngstowu I Wo usod to boast the boat club around these parts, and surely there is as much muscle here now as there was then. The following shows the position of the league ball clubs up to the 2t'Ah ult.: A Beautiful Young Lady's Ruse. To say the sun hail boon hot would not In tho least do us justice. It had shone, from early morning until night; not even the smallest cloud had interfered to moderate its heat, and now that tho hour had come, when, according to established usage, it must set, it seoms to have gathered all its energy for a final effort, and hangs in the western sky like a ball of fire, lighting up Nahant's beach for a long stretch,and reflecting in tho placid water an image almost as brilliant as tho original. Tho scene is really beautiful, but poor humanity has suffered bo much from that luminary, that it is totally unable to appreciate its parting saluto. One poov mortal is devoutly grateful, and sits on tho piazza of the principal hotel, his chair tipped back, his foot on tho ruling, and a cigarette in his mouth, contemplating tho sunset with decided satisfaction. At this moment another individual appeared on the scene. Tho new comer is a man of about live and twenty years. His light hair falls 011 a broad intellectual forehead, his mouth is sensitive, and the upper lip is adorned with a moustache that men take genuine delight in. His oyes are quite blue, in which there is a drift of humor; altogether the face is very pleasing, and the huge stalwart figure which accompanies it makes tho man worth looking at. This is Reymond Leister. His companion is entirely different. Jack Hastings' friends never ventured to call him handsome. His eyes are largo and dark, and havo in them a dissatisfied expression. Ho does not revel, as does Loistor, in a fine, moustache, his face is smooth, and his mouth is perhaps a trifle large, but his teeth are lino, and with Jack Hastings one foels like racking his brain for something to provoke Iris mirth afresh. Jack Hastings is a favorite, and this summer ho is a hero, for he has a history, and all tho young ladies aro dovoutly interested in him in cousequonco. Last winter tho news came to Jack that an undo in England had died and left him a considerable fortune on condition that lie marry a neice of tho old man, who had lived with her uncle over since her infancy, and in case of his not complying, tho fortune reverted to the neice. Now, Jack had nover been over-burdened with luero, and tho idea of having a fortune was not in tho least objectlonol to him, but the incumbrance was not all to his taste. Up to tho time that tho news came of tho will, Jack had been heart wholo, and his friends however, thought him a lucky fellow, for Miss Helen Isabelle Loighton was said to be a beauty, but as the young lady had never visited America it was rather difficult to say whence came this important information, 'jack had made no decided objection, so it was arranged that the young lady accompanied by her aunt, after u .short tour through tho continent, was to start for America and was expected to arrive about the middle of September. Miss Leighton's aunt resided in Boston, and shortly after her arrival in that city s'lo was to give a reception, tho purpose being to present Jack Hastings to his future bride. Jack had been informed of all these ar rangcments, but had taken little interest in them. As he must become a benedict ho had determined to make the best of tho time left him; but tho fates were against him. A fow weeks after his advent at tho beach he had fallen desperately in lovo with a young lady stopping at ono of tho cottages. In consequence of this Jack fully believed himself ono of the most deeply injured mortals 011 the face of tho earth, hence tho dissatisfied expression in tho young gentleman's eyes, as he looked towards the cottage which holds the object of his adoration. "For a person who has just had a fortune thrown at his head, you are about as disconsolate as a fellow can be" said Raymond; butuusJack made noresponso, ho continued, "I say. Jack, don't you like it? 'Like it ?' said Jack, turning fiercely on him, "I like the fortune, but who would liko to have a girl thrown at his head; would you?' "That depends altogether on the size of tiio girl" replied Raymond, smoothing his hair, and laughing at his friends eagerness, "but to be serious, Jack, I would not get entangled wittaaflyono until I had seen Miss Loighton, and I should put a stop to my visits to the cottage, for pretty Miss Nellie's sake, if I were you." Jack looked aftor tho retreating figure and then utterly regardless of his friend's advice walkod off in tho direction of the cottage. Miss Nellie long had been exi>ecting him. She lay in a hammock, her hands resting listlessly in her lap; white soft hands, that were strangoi's to labor." Her white dress just escaped the ground as she swayed ludly in tho soft summer twilight. Her head was covered with a shower of golden curls and her complexion was as fair as a baby's. Her eyes were large and bluo, and just at present were fixed rather anxiously on the road where Jack would first appear. He was late and she luul almost given him up, when the stalwart figuro appeared strid- 1 ing along toward tho cottage. A smile of satisfaction pla\ ed around the pretty mouth which breaks iuto a merry laugh as Jack leaps the low fence anil stamls by her side. Raking her eyes to his she says: "You could not stay away, could you, Jack, dear!'* Ho stoops to kiss her but she pushed his 1 face away and says gently, "You must not doit, Jack; I feel quite sure Miss Loighton would object." "Confound Miss Loighton"' says Jack, as he throws himself on the ground. 'That is what I say, but that does not alter in the least tho facts of the case." "I have told you, Nellie, a dozen times that I never will many her." I know it but I am horrible jealous of her. j and cannot get her out of my mind, night or j day, aud 1 know you think about her all the time, now don't you, Jack!' and she bends forward till her eyes are looking straight in eft his; and then as he made no reply, 'I do wish you would smile, Jack, I ant trying so hard to delude myself Into tho belief that you are handsome, aud I never can if you look like that.' Taking no notice Of her last remark, Jack straightened himself up and says with decision, 'I have made up my mind—' 'To marry Miss Leighton? interrupted Nellie, doing her best to squeeze a few tears into her eyes. Nellie is a coquette, but to do her justice, she Is very fond of Jack. 'I have made up my mind,' repeated Jack. 'Well, you said so before,' impatiently. '1 have made up my mind,' again repeated Jack, slowly, ' to write to Miss Leighton and tell hor that owing to a previous attachment I am unable to comply with the conditions of my uncle's will.' 'Jack, yon dear, old darling,' giving his hand a little squeeze, at which a smile lights up Jack's plain face, but it vanquished on j hearing her next words. 'How about tho fortune, Jack?' 'Hang the fortune,' repeated the young ' man, and then as she looks dubious, 'Nellie, you don't care about the money?' 'No, but—' 'But what? 'A little monoy is very nice to have, but Jack, I had evor so much rather have you,' smoothing bis forehead with her cool soft hand. • , I "1 know you would, Nellie; now when shall It bo, dear?" "Oh, not boforo you havo seon Miss Leighton.""But I nover shall soo hor, she will not want to soc me after sho receives my letter." "Oh, but I would rather you should." Jus imagina your seeing her after out marriage and falling iti lovo with hor, I should die, Ji ck" and this tijno there are tears in tho bl uo eyes, but whether of grief or with mirth Jack cauuoti tell. All his persuasion cannot move her, and so ho loaves her. As sho watches his retreating figuro her face dimples and smiles; sho is quite suro of her conquest, now, and is a little less jealous of Miss Leighton. The weeks sped swiftly by, and the second week in September had arrived. In two days Jack is to meet Miss Loighton, for notwithstanding his letter, her guardian has son! word that he thinks it advisable for the young people to meet, Miss Leighton is anxious to make some arrangement about tho property, and next Wednesday is set for tho meeting. Ho has taken his farewell of Nellie, after swearing eternal fidelity, but sho is not fully convinced. Bho has pictured Miss Loighton in glo#ing colors as a beauty, with dark flashing eyes and a statoly figure, for since she Is a relative of Jack's, Nellie cannot get the idea out of hor heflSl that sho is a brunette, and is certain that Jack will fall in lovo with tho young lady on the spot. Sho ends by asking him in pathetic tones. "What will thou bo left for me to do" adding to Juck's misery. The night hits at last ai-rived, aud Jack has spent a longor time than usual on his toilet and feels in a dissatisfied mood as ho rides along towards Beacon street. At last the carriage stops. Jack is admitted and shown ' into a small reception room by a servant in I livery, Ho bears tho low strains of a waltz, but his attention is instantly caught by a portrait which hangs over the mantle. It is the portrait of a lady, tho face Is proud and intelligent, the eyos are large, dark and* brilliant; instinctively Jack knows that it is a picture of Miss Leighton, and he to himself as ho recalls Nellie's description of hor. Ho hears tho rustle of a silk dress In tho hall and tho original of tho portrait, only prouder, handsomer, If possible, is standing beside him. For a moment, Jack rcmaindod motionless his breath almost taken away by the suddenness of her abearance. All of his lino speeches fly to tho four winds. 'I,—l believe you wish to see me,' he stammered' Yes.'Her voico was low and contrasted strangely with his. ' Mr Cary, my guardian thought it best, as be wished you to know that it is over half a million that you are refusing when you refuse to—when you refuse tho alliance,' A soft flush covers face and throat, as she speaks. She is very beautiful and so Jack must admit. His thoughts fly back to a golden head, and not for a moment does ho falter in his allegiance. 'I am unable to comply, as I am to be married to Miss Long in two weeks.' A smile curls the lady's lips. 'Yes, to Mr. Cary informed me, and wo have decided to inako over to you u jxirtion of the fortune, for which I have had a deed of gift made out.' .She said this hi a sarcastic way, as she handed him the paper. Something in tho tone offends Jack and taking the paper lie deliberately tears it up and throws It into the grate, 'I am obliged to you, Miss Leighton, but you must excuse me if 1 decline your gift.' Utterly unprepared for this contingency, the lady stamls staring at hjfii. Feeling rather awkward, and not knowing what to do, Jack bows and takes his leave. Tho lady hides her face in her hanas and cries? no, laughs! Her mental observation is that he must be ia love. Then sho returns to her guests, not without a feeling of mortification that, not only has she been rejected herself, but her gift lias been Indignantly thrown at her feet by this haughty young man. Jack has told Nellie everything, and Nellie at last convinced of his constancy, is all the fondest lover could wish. They aro to be married in a week; Jack has bought a small house and furnished It as well as his means will permit. Nellie has been over and declares it to bo tho loveliest, cosiest house in the World. Tho wedding Is to be very quiet; they are to have a few friends at the house, among others Keymoud Leister, who mentally sets Jack down as the biggest fool on record. It seoms as if nature had made a particular effort on that day, or at least Nellie thinks so as sho returns homo from church with now her husband, to their cosy little home. As they enter they aro met by a servant who hanils them two cnrils, on which uro written, "Miss Loighton and Mr. Cary;" Jack became dignified feeling quite certain they have como to renew tho offer of tho money as a wedding present, and he firmly determined to refuse it us bluntly as before. Nellie, for the first time In her life, is seized with bashfulnoss aud l>egS hor husband to go In alone, but ha will not hoar Of this for a moment, and putting his arm reassuringly around hor, walks iuto the room and up to Miss Leighton. 'Miss Leighton,' he begins, ' allow mo to present to you—' when ho stops. Nellie has slipped from his arm and is seated on the sofa laughing in anything but a dignified manner. Jack looks from ono to tho other in bewildermout. Nellie finally tukingpity on him, slips hor hand through tho lady's arm and, leading her up to Jack, says: 'Mr. Hastings, allow mo to present to you my aunt, Mrs. Leighton.' 'And you,' stammered Jack. 'Mrs. Jack Hastings, at your service.' Making a low courtesy turns to tho old gon tleman, and taking both his hands, says gravely 'I told you, Mr. Cary, he should not marry ma for my money, and I don't think ho has.' Sadly Afflicted.
