Next 'jo xnv own' home-folks I liked John best of anybody. He osed to bring me peppermint drops and tell me stories, and whatever I said or did be never called me a tease or torment, as my own big brothers did sometimes. Then, too, he used votaetiraes to give me a ride behind bis handsome black horses, and in the depths of my small bsartb'ow I wUhed thitI was grown up ud could wear a silk dress, and go away with biin to singing-schools and parlies as.Patt often did. But as that could not lie I was well content-that lie should.lake ?at.jr; for I Bdmired her sd mucli' "niym-lf that 1 thought -t the mure highly of Juhn for aduuirlug her ' Putty was not like Hannah, my 1'4 est sister, who, since I can remember, had been mother and sister boti to me j Hannah ith her sweet, plain face,- hem goodness, ber patience, who was never cross or fretful. Patty had a tem per, as Tom used to say, "as quick t are and tow," she waso't always as patient as she might have been, either, and nearly' every day she told me that I was "the naughtiest little girl in the world." But Patty' bits of "temper were Quickly over, and abe waa eb flovioR and generous and gay and i.elp- fuli tbat totnatter how vexed X talgnt be with her I straightway forg it It and loved ber as dearly as ever. Then, too, her month was so dimpled, ber cheeks so rosy, and ber eyes, with the fair above them always gathered into little lings, so' bright that I was sure ooicture could bo - prettier than oar ' I'remember well one summer even ing she bad on new dress, a soft pink muslin, aad her arms and neck were so round and 'dimpled, anil she waa so pink and white; heteelf, and as John Harmon looked at ber something In bis eyes made me speak oat the thought that was In iBf mlnd,: "Did, yon ever see anyone look as' pretty as Patty does in her new dress f " . . " At that Patty blushed pinker than ber gown, brother Ben laogbed out loud, father, smiled from behind - bis newspcpraanl Haobah said, Abby, little girls should "be seen and not beard."' ' , . . - ' -' ' But John looked at Patty a moment and then at me, and I knew from bis face that be didn't tbiskr t bad done anything so . very bad ; and after awhile he asked ratfy to go oat In the garden to see how See the evening pr'mroeet were.'-1 wanted to go wllb ibem but Haonab said my, knitting stent as not done ; for that matter it never was done, and by tbe time I bad knU five times around to the mid JU of tbe seoi needle, U was my ted time. Tliey Sid not boms la till I wss in bed, sodwheSrtty came sip sod kiwrd me I balf wakened np and i.ii.l, 'Why Patty, bow your eyes sbine -y you look prettier than ever," aad then aba kiss ed me again And Said I 'was "a silly child ; ; . '' , ' . AAer that John came .more than ever, ouly now tbey oAea sat by Ibenv selves a lb parlor, when I would take my liUlscbairaaJ sit with Ibem till Hannah called me at half-past seven o'clock, my bed time. I thought tbls hardly polite of Hsn rsb to d br I as b'jio T.;y to eaUru'.a J-ba. Patty and Hannah were ever so busy, too; (bey quilted qui!ts,and got a pieceof linin in the loom in tbe loom room. I used to sitdb tbe loom beams and watch Patty's bands fly as aha threw tbe shuttle, and somejimes I wound the shuttle Tor ber. But therewere other yonnai men besides John who sometimes came to our bouse, and one of them ; waa Levi Jerome, who kept the store at the vil lage. John didn't like Levi, 1' knew, for once I heard him tell Patty that he was a perfect fep, and he didn't see how any girl of sjnse oould abide him. At that Patty laughed a provoking lit tle laugh and said that for ber part she thought Levi was n very' nice young man indeed. Then-John said some thing I didn't hear, andi'a' willful look came on Patty'sTace, and she answer ed that she thought she waa capable of choosing hor owiijfHends., Then John looked hurt, and I knew;; Patty waa sorry and ehe smiled ' her prettiest smile and 'said, bow could ho be bo foolish ? ' .-',( , Not so very long after that, as I was out at play one recess, Levi Jerome, ,f drove by In bis new carriage, and with blm our Patty. As .they came oppo site the school bouae who should they meet but John Harmon.. John bowed to Patty na thctugh be bodu't seen her for a year, and sbe bowed o him as .stiff, and tbey never saw ine at all. When I went home' at night I found Patty there, and cousin Patty Lester, who lived In nammond, twelve miles away. And Patty Lester bad caught ber high-heeled shoe ou tbe stair and twisted ber ankle, so that Hannah bad to do it up in wormwood and vinegar. The next afternoon, a I was picking beelarkspur eed, I saw John Harmon coming. 'But before bof got to, the house LevJT Jerome drove "up front the other way j and John went ' by and never even ' looked ' towards i, ' and when I asked Patty, what sbe supposed made bim do- that, she tossed her bead and said she neither knew nor pared. It was more than a week before he came, agnio. ' I kept count because be had brought me a new picture book, and almost every , evening I , would watch at the pantry window that look ed up the east road, to see it be .' was. coming, and more than, once I found Patty there too," though she always pretended it was for something else. : But at last John did come. When Patty weot to the front door to let bim iu be wind blew . the door from the kitcben Info ball wide open, and I saw that be bad a" piece xf paper in his band." ,"Patty,"Jia said, I never heard him speak so stern as ho did ' then, "t,erel a letter I found .blowing along the walk. It begina as I could not well help seeing, 'My dearest Patty,' and la signed 'Your ever loving Levi.' If you can explain what it means, and -why Levi Jerome was here four even lugs last week, I shall be' glad to have jou, and I lb Ink I have a right to. ask it." -. With that Patty drew herself tip. "John Harmon," she said ?you have no right to speak to me like that-; and I have no explanation to make to one mho has shown so little confidence In me as you have." " 3 John put out bis hands' and asked, "Patty, i that all you haja to say ?" : "That Is aJl," fhe said. : For a minute John looked at her and be waa so pales I wa . afraid be was sick, - Then ha said : "Then I will bid you good afternoon." ; :' . And Patty pulled a ring off her fin ger, handed it to him, and said, "And I will bid yon good afternoon." . Hannah had como to abut the aoor into the ball.tod so bad heard what they said, and as Patty cams back into kbe kitchen she said, 4 0h, Patty I am afraid you will regret what you bae just done." '-" "5a l "ft But Patty"! eyes flashed as sbe answer ed, "I don't thlufc, I will ever rearet that I wouldn't be tyrannized over by a jealous man." And then ahe walked out of the room and didu't c?me down agaio, even to supper, 'and Hannah said sbe bad a bad headache, v . After that it didn't seem ao.pleasant. John didn't come any more, and Han nah looked troubled, and Patty didn't seem a bit like b erst If. And, "bow sbe did work I Hannah used to try not to have her spin so much. I thought sbe rourt be afraid It was biirlisg her, abe was so pale and ber eyea were red so moch of tbe time. And one afternoon Bsn eame in and said, "Patty, did you know John Harmon was going West f He atarta next week." Patty bt-Id her htad very bigb and said, "It makes no difference to me where Jahn Harmon goes, or abeo he goes," though, when 1 went to call hrr to sup per I found ner lu ber loom crying as bard 'as ste could. . But if Patty didn't care aboet John's glng away I knew I did. Tbe next day Hannah-and I weat to tbe east woods lor white oak bark for coloring, aad ae I was going down to some chestnut trees by tbe road to see if these were any chestnuts Uft, I saw Joba Harmon going by I ran tben as fast as I eoul J aed climbed over tb fence aod called t ' tlm Sola I Joba I don't go Weft ! I doj't ati,i to Live you go Vcl I"" As soon as he beard me be jumped oflyuis horse and took me up In bis1 arms and said, "Then, Abby, there is soma one wbo will diss me after all ?" Of oourse I should misa him, -1 told him ; there was' nobody wbo gave me se many things or told hie such "nice stories as he did. and I couldn't have bim go. " "Wouldn't Levi, Jerome an swer just as well f be aaked. ""Levi, Jerome l I said. ! I -can't bear Levi Jerome V be always oalls me 'sissy' ; besides, be don 'i come to onr house any more now, cousin Patty Lester has gone home." ; r u "Why, thst time our Patty and Levi Jerome went after ber, when . sbe sprained ber ankle so and 'she. could n't go onl at all. r fiha was so lame sbe Oould hardly waftt," I added, "but aha could go to tbe door every time Levi came, which-was almost every single day while sbe stayed." '."'', ' With that John said some things, as if to himself, about what a fuol Mie'd been, and be put me down and Jump ed ou biff horse and rode away without, another word. I went back to Han nah and told ber about it, and, alio said : I must always :be "careful what J gaid.about people, but she didu't say it as though she- minded much. Wben we got back borne there was John's horse standing at.the gte,but Hannah Would spread .out- the white oak bark in .tbe woodhous) chamber first, so by the time we went in be was gone, and Patty's eyef were as. bright and ber checks were as red as two roses.: Hannah looked at Patty; aou laughed, and Patty asked IffcwouIdS't take the little ii pail and go to the sjpring for some fresh water, aod when I came hack! they had both been crying, but they didn't look sorry atAll, so I thought it couldn't be for much. After that Patty and Hannah quilt ed more quilts, and Patty had a fire in tbe south -chamber and sewed,- and John didn't go Weat or any anything more about going. And - after awhile oousiu Pally Lester came o.ver again, and they baked and ' baked till the storeroom closet was full of cake frosted cake too, Tben one afternoon Hannah told ton I might stay home from school and put on my new red dress. I was more than, surprised at that, for Hannah never would let me slay homejiom school, and to put on my new dress of a wsok day- was . of itself an event. ' ' ' - ' : By the time was dressed and Han nah hadedmbed and curled my hair. Uncle Horace Ltster, cousin Polly's lather, droyeTftto ibe yard with all bis folk?, and pretty anon Aunt Susan Bean came," and tben ' Uncle Alinoa Potter, I thought -this ; was very strange, for Thanksgiving and Christ mas were both past, but tbe people kept coming till the. house was full. AmoDg the reat -Mr.v avis, j the minister, came with his wile and Fan ny, their little girl, I was ever so glad to see Fanny, and took her ont to show her my white kittens. When we came in the people were all sitting around the parlor,, and Hannah mo tioned to ua to cit down by her. And pretty soon Patty Lester eame In from tbe ball, all dressed In white, , with Levi Jerome, and our Patty dressed In white-,' Joo, with John Harmon, At that Fanny whispered to roe, "Oh, it's a wedding," for Fanny's father being a mini Jter.tba baa seen weddings, which ll never had. Bo I whispered to her, "Who is going to be married I " And aba whispered back, "Why, yocr Patty and John Harmon." -' " ". Tben Patty and John stood together between tire front windows, and Patty Lester stood betide Patty, and Levi Jerome beside John, and John H nt- a ring on Patty'a flogcr, and Mr. Davis asked them ' qntioos aod made a prayer,' aod Fanny1 aaid tbey were married. And tben John kissed Patty right before everybody, and all tbe rest kissed ber and said tbey , hoped abe'would be happy. ' That waa a gala day in my' e"blld life. Aod what with the company and the supper and tbe pleasant excite ment, I thought a wedding an occasion of pure enjoyment, till lata in "the afterooofj Fanny Darla aaid to me, "Aren't you sorry to have John lake Patty away f" " "V1.I he T" I asked with a sudden sense of dismay, for I had notonc thought of such a possibility. ' "Of course he will," sbe aoswred from the height of her superior know ledge, "they always do. And they are oak in tbe ball now ready to go." ... At that I rushed into tbe hall, where sure enough they were, an I Fal'y with ber drraa changed aod her wrs(.a oa. "John," I cried, seizing 'bis arm, "are you going to" lake our'Palty away? If you dd I shall never like you any more, and I eball wiab you bsd gone West, aad stayed .there, I shall." With tbl John tossed me op as be was always doio?. yfbj, Abbj V he aaid, "bow eaa you aay ao 7" and tben low, ao that nobody hut Fatty heard blm, "when you know it waa you wha kept me from going." -Then be aod Patty looked at each other and smi'el But before I had t'ase to ak if be re&I'y 4.J s'.sy just because 1 wanted him to, Patty1 knelt down and put ber arms around me. ; "Don't ory, Abby," sha whispered, "I must go with John. I belong to John now." ' , ' "And don't yon belong o ua any more?" tasked tearfully. - "Tfes, dear, and always ahall ; tut," and abe kissed me softly, "I belong to John first." . ; ' V " ' Just then their sleigh drove to the door and John lifted her Into lt nest of furs. "As tbey started away; Hannah put one, 0t Patty'a old. 'slippers In my band told me to throw it alter them.' As I did ao everybody laughed, and Patty, with ber eyes shining like stars, nod the long plumes of her bat falling against her pink cheeks, looked ; back and smiled and kissed her band. And while I was almost heart-broken at ber goiog. I folt; child though I ws, that I oould not grieve with . the radiant and happy face before my vision, r . T9 ssB Af OB1TOB Uliil Drawn fraas the nctaads mt . Clraat Speakers', One day Roscoe Conkllng' was In one of tbe departmenta in Washington attending to some business for a client of hi. He was ' sompMled to wait awhile, sinoe- the chief of that depart ment waa busy with a man with whom he bad a pre'vlouv engagement. 'Mr. Conkllng began to cbat with one of the clerks. He was a young fellow scarcely out' of hla teens, and - Mr. Cookling, whb vfts very fond of young people if they weTe intelligent, seemed to take an Interest la the young men. He asked the clerk whether ha expect ed to remain long in the government offiooaud advised him to quit" such employment as soon as possible, saying that tbsre was no more dismal career than that of a government clerk. '. The young man atked Mr. Conkllng if he would tell him how he Decame a great orator. Tbe Senator was pleased w 1th the question, bnt said that he had tlmeto make only one suggestion. Said he: "Practice speaking alone. The most Important thing for a yoUog rriad who wants to become an orator to think about at first Is bow to enunicata with distinctness',' Of course it is more Im portant than that for an orator to hays something tossay, but I am oow speak ing of the manner In which be Is to say what Is in hie mind. ; "Practlce'spcaklng' words which have long , vowels in tbem. If you lake care of 'these vowels the " oonsov nants will take care of them selves, and the secret of d'stloct nets in pubticspeakfng Is clear utter ance of the vowel hounds." ' Tben Air. Conkllng : repeat a thyme to the youngman In bis rich voice, aod although ha seemed to be speaking in hie conversational,, (one, yet the clerk 'at the far end of tbe room said tbat he beard Mr.' Cookling jrlth distinctness. ;V I i : 1 At tbe Chicago Convention In 1880, In-which General Garfield Wat nom inated for tbe Presidency, Mr. Conkl lng made a speech which la - now his toric. He stood upon a reporter's - table, Tbe great building was packed, tt was thought that not lent than ld.OOO persons were in it such an audience. as an orator bvjuimd paa. Many wbo have beard tbat address said afterward tbat It seemed impos sible that any one should ever win a higher oratorical triumph than Mr. Conkliog then gained. After tbe convention adjourned a gentleman met Cookling and Bald" to bim t . "Senator, I want to ask you a alngie questional sat In the remote gallery, Pet bap no man In tbe build log was further away from you than I. Icoaldthlok of nothing but tbe ocean as I looked over tbe vast throng be tweeo you and me. I waa so far away tbat I oould scarpely see tbe ontlines of your countenance, although your figure was plainly visible. Yet I heard every, word tbat you uttered, and thtse wbo were near me aaid tbat tbey did. Now, I should like to ask yoq bow yen were able to carry your voice with dUtlncfaeae to lb remote1 part of tbat great building V v : "By pronouncing the vowels dls U icily," answered Mr. Conkllng. Tbat is tbe secret of distinct ' ut terance $ and tbe reason so many men fail to make themselves beard Is tbat tbey slur the vowels." - - Wendell Phillips was not known re an orator at all one. day, wbile upon the next he had gained such di I no tion as only Webrter, Cboal, Otis and Fisbsr Amra bad secured la tbe same ciiy cf Boaioe. ' . ' Mr. Phillips was attending a public meeting called in' Faneuil Halt It was in tbe exciting anti-elavery. time. Mr. Phillips eat ia tbe gallery with a friend. ' -' . He was tbea a man under SO years of age, and wbea be eaUred that ball be bad ao Idea of any other career tban Ibatf a law-get. gpeecbea were made which t.l'ej Pbillipe with' ia dignatlon, and be salJ to bla friend, Voms one ought j antwer those ri-eeclta." 'Why; not do It yourself?" tbe friend replied. , ' With that suggst Ion Mr. Phillips made biaVay to ibe plalforrh, and without preparation delivered a speech worthy to rank with the highest achievements In oratory In . Fanenil kHall. And the- men aked, ''Who Is this young fellow wbo speaka in tones of mualOj and compels us to listen to things we do not care to hear ?" , ' Mr.Pbllllps'had two qualities which make the orator wben be , mt3U this first famous apeecb of bis. Oue was a voioe comparable in sweetness, power and 'fascination only- to the voice of Gladstone, and some have thought- to that 'of, Gem? Smith', another famous abolitionist. ( Then Mr; Philips had cultivated, as Conkllng did, tbe art of speaking with distinctness and without apparent ef fort. Therefore, he did not tire his listeners, as he soeraed to- be address log tbem lajpo more urgeot manner than onewould use In private con venation. He was vry caracul of, his vowel epunde, although this care was not tnado evident to his andienco. : Conkliog seemed never to straitn to carry his voice end he spoke for four hours at the Academy of Muslo in New Y6rk without any more apparent effort than would have been required to chat with friends. Therefore be did not weary his great ajidience by a sug gestion tbat he was himself weary. .To young men wbo asked' Mr. Con kliog what practice they should take to become effective speakers he always made this answer : "Train your voice as singers do,' so that you ' can get a musical tone, but riot a clng song one, and to get it without apparent "eftogt, just as tbe greatest singers execute their. most difficult pasosges. , There" la no young man who cannot by practice sr cure voice which will be pleasing. Of course some are blessed with natu ral gifts, but It is a gift which can be acquired.? '" "t ,v Gerrit Smith had the superbest voice evergiven to an American,' hat even be, when be waa making bis battle lor tbe anti-slavery cause, practiced1 read: ihg aloud.: Then cultivate distinctness. Thus, If you have something to say, you will become an ora?or; and If you have patienee intelligence and en thusiasm and sincerity as well, you may be a great orator whose rewards are aa delightful as any tbat man can perceive..
