He would detain the lady but a moment, - : Ten minutes later there was a soft rus tle on the stairs ; ten minutes and a half. Miss Redd entered. ' "A pleasant surprise," she said, smiling. Miss Redd couid smile even at rejected manuscript. ' Mr. Pulsifer stifled his astonishment. Doubtless, Dolly had sent her friend down to entertain him till she, herself, waa ready. He chatted affably with Miss Redd, though he could hardly understand what former absence of hers she so apologeti cally regretted. -, Bnt the moments grew to twenty more and no Dollly. . : "Miss Hawley," he again ventured, f Did I not understand she was at home ?" ' " Dolly f Did you ask for her t" Miss Redd seemed surprised. " I thought your business was with me. Thompson- said so." She began to laugh. "And I've been wondering what it was all abont But if it's Doily you want to see." she rose in excellent humor. "I'll call her.

"Von are quite a stranger," It was a trite remark : but then she was not born to scintillate like the literary Miss Redd. Mr. Pulsifer resumed his seat, looking very stiff. " I called to return this book," he began. In fact. I have called several times, be fore, but you were never at home." And at this recollection he looked, as- he felt, very miserable., "You have so many in vitations out. You have so many young gentleman friends." Dolly did not wince as he had intended she should at these pointed remarks. She appeared doubtfuL Was he here to ridi cule her ?

She she has her look ing glass stuck full of your cards," and Dolly broke down and wept. And what did Mr. Pulsifer do t Oh, the same old story. Every one knows how such things are conducted. "Dolly I I swear to you there's some mistake.

" Come in," she said, abstractedly, Miss Hawley had a sparkle in her eye, a ring upon her finger. The sparkle was lie coming; the' ring was absurd It was Cassias Pulsifer's seal ring, large enough almost to fit her wrist. Bnt this she was just to keep till he brought the proper one. Mr. Pulsifer bad not come prepared to pro pose. Dolly had tied on this seal of his with a thread of silk from her dress. "Those are my cards, Annable Redd," she cried, taking them out of the mirror.
