Whathe might have been had. helbeeu the son ot a poor man, "we 1 cannot conjecture : but filling; a ! - position where envy could .not ' touch his heart, lie was full of good feeling' towards everybody, . and l was. as natural in tone and man . ner as could be. The society in Athol was exclu sive,' lliough not aristocratic. It was so divided into sets that the 8-eps between the lowest and high est were numerous, though 'the - nctual difTerenci between the two was very small. But the lines i were druw-itightly, and the walls of partition between Jew-and Gen tile were hot. more' real than' the ' barriers each .little 'clique piled against the clique below it- . It was six years 'sinccf Featherby , came in'o his propeily. . He had crad bated- ,at Yale when twenty i poor young'man was loved because of .himself. And the woman who loved the poorman to-day. was ready to turni'to he wealthy one and marry him on the morrow. In all life, as Edward Featherby look ed at life j the rich young man w.as the least to be envied. That he. should be thinking of lore and maiTtegewageniely nat urak He had reached the age when Hi friends w,er staking to them selves wives, and ttwas a matter- of-course: that he should contrast: his own empty lifts with their over-) 1itrvv1flgnrTrrs fieatfwIisTnrn gryforloye; his life was incom plete if he lived it alone. A thous-5 and andone plans had suggested themselves to him, wherein he might drop out of himself into some penniless man, and woo and win ; but there waSalwayssome unpleas ant feature in each plan. There we're stories of ''rich men playing coachmen and winning tneir em ployers' daughters, but he was sure that he would not marry a woman who was willing to marry her fath er's coachman. Then again he didn't know how to do anything in the Bhane of work, and consequent ly such schemes as these were im possible. ' . Jn a smaVl degree he was an ar tist.1 Hadhe been poor, the probabilities-are he would have been an artist of no common merit'; but bis two millions had prevented him from being more than common place. Yet it s'tru&k him that here was a fcpvering under which he might masquerade. The more he looked at it the more feasible it seemed, and plan to suit his purposes ing a cigar, the blacksmith wasi always glad to see hinrcoming into ' his shop, and the young people seemed pleased when he joined their pic-nics. j The young maidens' of Newhall were such asonly thecountry towns 6f,the North can shovy.' Though born in the country, daughters of farmers, yet each had been seat' to the best schools in the State, and they had Brought back to their countrhome ease of manners, and grace, of cfrrwehtrtwas fuy cities.

As to what the young man and maiden lire taugh't in the class-room we, can afford to be comfortable--they will soon forget it. But the stories which they carry to. their cham bers, are lessons that are apt to leave indelible marks behind them. The novel is a bit of life being enacted before us, and oftentimes . its effect is a thousand tiihes more becausethe hero and hero ine are but ink and paper, instead of flesh and blood. The modern novel deals with the heart-strings. Whatever the. song, the refrain is always love. If the theme of tle Uiook be murder, forgery gaming, or only idlyltic life, the thread that Ivnlds it is sure.to be love. Search the heart of your daughter, my dear madam ; probe deep for the moral lessons you have been teaching-her these eighteen years ; you wUl but have your labor or you r -pains. She has bunt a world of her own and peopled it with men -And women of novels; and her own - life is not as you have made it, but is as Scott, Dickens and Trdllope have given it to her. , - Edward Featherby's life had been moulded into its present un fiatisfactoriness because of a steady course of riovel-readirtg. And the result of his reading, as it most vi vidly impressed, itself upon his mind, was this one fact:' that to be .loved for one's self, a man must either be poor or a rascal. In all the novels the rich young iian was 80Ughtr'afcer for his rich- .. ?ii -r -u ; cs : tne vinam was iuvcu wuuusc First, no human bt in? was to be acquainted with the proposed ad venture ; second, his attorney was to have exclusive power during his absence, so tlrat h would neither n'eetl to read or yrite a,-business letter during the summer. The attorney wns a not very pleasant man, but he was thoroughly honest. Ilia business tiiu'st' Ka-v-e 'brought him a cood inecirie; but he was always in trouble about his own money matters,- while the affairs of his clients were kept in the most systematic manner, -V Mr. Thrift .received his rich cli ent's orders as lrthev were the most matter-of-fact directions, and ask ed notquestions, except such as! werb absolutely necessary', to a inqer understanding of his posi tion. : I When thib was settled, Feather by 'wrote his friends that he was going on a Journey "up North;" drew a thousand dollars out of, the ban'k, packed a very modest trunk with a very modest wardrobe, stuck his sketch-book and colors in a corner of the trunk,- and "bought a-jticket to Alb-uiy. f From Albany his rou'te was not yet determined..; He consulted his guide-books and -maps, anil finally decided he would go into the coun try. No sooner said than he was on his way to the interior of the State. . Stopping at a central point he mapped out a'nother route, and three days afterwards he was sit ting in the hotel in the village of New hall, and congratulating him self that he had selected a place where none cf his friends cotntL molest him. The arrival of a stranger inNew hall was a matter of but little con sequence to the good people of the village. v They made good gutter and chees1 and prospered, and they had small curiosity as to what a strange gentleman at the hotel might be 'doing. Herein they shdw- d their Dutch blood, as, well as their good common "sense: The sense of being free to do'a he pleased,. go where- he please and not be hampered by prying eyes, was very pleasant to Feath erby. He- chatted with the farm ers, chatted with their wivesi gave pictures to the children, and was welcomed by them when he came around.. If any of them had any curiosity as to him or his bbsiness there the 6ketch-book -uuder his arm would have solved it; but it is doubtful if they cared as to his purposes. The sumnuif opened with a joy ousness such as only the country summer possesses, and Featherby began to feet thoroiighly at'xhorne in Newhall. '.' The minister , had asked him to take, tea with him, the doctor had invited him to call culiarly becoming as ihev were toned down by the realities of country life. -. -,,"'.- Featherby declared to himself the second Sunday he attended the village church, that he had never seen feo many charming-girls'. And he declared farther that he was going to become acquainted with them. . Gaining their acquaintance was not !a difficult matter. They were not bold, neither, were they unduly' shy and when he accompanied Dr.-' Folds to a pic-nic, some two weeks later,! he' was-very naturally introduced to nearly all the pretty girls of the village . He had a very pleasant day. Smoking a cigar at the open win dow of his room late in the eve ning, he declared to. himself that it had been the pleasantest day he had 'known since he vvas a boy. He congratulated himself upon his good sense in having thought of his masquerade, and wondered why men could linger among the affect ed girls of the cities, when there were such charming flowers Of wo manhood in the country. And how pleasant all the young ladies .had been i Miss Manley' was-evidently)hj belleof the place, and she was very pretty ; .but Miss Verney was "well, if not quite so pretty, a' little more interesting. He had had a very 'pleasant walk with MUs , Veniey, She ha A j ust the color of hair he most admired gold, tinged with red. She look ed a little wearied. No wonder; someone said she was the school teacher. Pretty hard work for a delicate woman, he said, and then he threw his cigar away and went to bed.' I '. '' As soon ashe awoke in the morning- he bpgan to tough aloud. His dreams had been absurdly real, and through most of them lie had fig ured now with Miss Manley, now with Miss Verney. His system must be out of order, he declared, Still laughing heartily, and a walk before breakfast would set him right. From the hotel towards tthe rivpr was the prettiest street in Newhall. Great elms drooped gracefully across the road andmade a royal canopy. Featherby start ed down this street at a moderate pace, until he saw'a lady saunter ing ahead of him. He thought he aie knew her, and a few minutes of-energetic stepping brought "him beside her.- " Ah, good morning, Miss VTer- 1 1 ' ' ney ; uo you, too, require morning talked his best to-night, and all the better because she fvliowed him so closely and 'undentood him so thoroughly.

Ah, ve are. all rich when we are ,young,and never so rich as when we draw pictures of what we shall do ftr the girl we iove. And the trait of Miss Ver ney's character that. Featherby was most pleased, with was her natur alness. he was tloroughly her self, he said, and a vtry interesting selfj.too. She told him of the dull routine of the school-room, of her distaste lor her Work ; but she was compeJJed to work tcrbe independ ent, and she made t lie best of it. you were going; sajmabou t me "tonight.u , he askftj, after what, seemed a long silence. -- "I was gointo,add that' fou would rest me,"" site said, " with blushing candorr; ' - His heart beat'oudly; he took her,liand, aad, kissed .it.;.

And in this opin ion Edward Featherby fully agreed. He kept at her side as long as he dared, and then turned back to. his hoter with regret. It wa his indention to meet her a'ter school hours, but his plans were',not good and he missed her. In the evening Dr Folds .took him to call on Miss Manley, and he enjoyed himself thor oughly.

Another .delightful half hour in her company -and he was beginning to be in love. Love grows rapidly when there is" noth ing to interfere. . He was free to woo -whomsoever he would ; she was likewise free and to be wooed. They could 'meet everyday if they wished., and their right to meet and to love was unquestioned. New hall noticed that the artist was devoting himself to the school teacher; butNewhall said beseem ed to be a nice fellow am? -it would be a good match, and then smiled on them in a friendly, encouraging way. It was the evening of the third of July. Miss1 Verney had closed her schooT, .hat day for the summer, and she was exhausted writh a. hard day's labor. She! was the porch'of farmer Hooper's house Featherby dame up the path, saw how tired she was, and said. he would not ask her, to go down to the river as he had intended, be cause she was so tired. , .

She was going away in a few days to spend her vacation at the home of an old school-mate, lie was wondering if she loved him; if it-was' possible that she would give him a "yes" to the question he was about to ask her. He. had determined a:week before that he would ask the question. She was everything that he wanted in a wife. She wa3 sweet-tempered, beautiful, cultivated and honest.

They drifted along, in this way during September, and then Featherby began to Jong to. have his bride in her own house. ' He said they would turn their faces homeward, and she said she was glad. ' By the by, my dear," said he, 'do you not want to see your father before we go home'?" "My fatherf is dead," said she, r'btrtHL-harcsiways called 'my un cle fa i her. "You have never told me where he lived," said Featherby. "You never asked me before," she said. , "No, of course not," said he. fearing he had madean insinuation, when he had no intention of doing anything of the kind. "I hav not cared bpfore4 because I. want ed you all to myself. But now we will go and see your friends, if vou- wish.
