' SPEGGY'S PROPOSALS fa rs rsa Ha k By E. HOLLAND. fca fto rsi ?sa,)9a k &s few fa fsi rn "Oh, Peggy, hnvo you heard Cap tain Noely's offer?" was screeched by a bevy of veranda beauties as Mar garet Randall joined them. "Offer of what?" "Oh, gracious, girls, toll her!" "Why, tho captain has offored- began one of the damsels. "You mistake, my dear young lady," interrupted tlio captain, "i onor Hom ing. Rut I have signified my willing ness to consider nny or all offers made me. You see, Miss Peggy," said he, turning toward tho late arrival, who, although far .from being beautiful, ruled them by right of brightness, hor Wit nnd her Inexhaustible resourcqV as an entertainer. "I nm disgusted with tho way you young ladles art! neglect ing your leap year advantages, and I will wngcr that not ono of you hns mado an offer of marriage this year. Ilavo you now?" "Nothing but tho awful dread of be ing refused has deterred us, captain," answered Miss Randall. "Think of our feelings, when after laying our hearts nnd fortunes nt your feet you refuse to listen." ' "Thnt's Just tho contingency I havo been providing for. Tho very point wo wero discussing when you Joined us nnd I said that to every girl I 'refused this yenr I would givo n Jersey cow. I've a fine drove of them, you know, nnd It's no more than right that thero should be some little consolation prlzo offered." "That's. not so bad; but great heav ens, captain 1" exclaimed one of tho younger men. "Have you the lenst Idea of what you are liable to got Into?" Tho group on the veranda broke up and Peggy, together with a half dozen of tho young people, went outside to arrange for tho thentrlcnls, leaving to the rest tho discussion of tho eccentric bachelor's latest. The end of tho senson camo nnd found tho captain still open to engage ments nnd he confided, to. bno of the young ladles that ho w'as thinking se riously of Bottling, down icfll ho might make tho mistake of walking clear through tho wood and then at last pick ing up a croQked,.stlck., ( , "You accept whatoTer offerS'tonlght, captain," said she mJgphleVously. It was tho night of tho last: danco Of tho season. Cnptnln Necly, who was not a danc ing man, promennded the veranda with a combination of blonde hair and pink muslin on his. arm. "Well, Peggy why don't you begin; sdrely you hnvo heard this thing dono times enough to know how?" She had dropped his arm nnd the Joko as soon as thoy wcro out of sight of the group on the veranda, but ho In sisted on keeping pp tho convcrsatldn as it had started out. Miss Randall was gcnernlly regarded as a young woman without a vulner able point; stono-henrted In fact In reality she was a girl of unusually high Ideals nnd probably because Bho had bo much to givo she expected much In return. Not perfection but her ideal of manhood was n noble ono and Cnp tnln Neely at times seemed to her to fulfill It moro than any man sho had yet known. It always seemed to her that Bho never appeared to such poor advantage as when with him, for then nil the ability, as a conversationalist, with which sho was credited, seemed to de sert her and Bho felt that to him Bhe must appear a most uninteresting per son. Now sho dared not lot him seo that sho was afraid to go on with tho farce, so In tho gayest manner sho began again Just ns thoy camo upon a seat among tho trees into which tho cap tain deliberately throw himself, leaV' lag hor standing: "My ndorablo .Tamea Isn't that tho way thoy usually be gin?" "Very good," was tho answer, "but 1 positively refuse to listen to nny pro posal unless tho suitor gels down on his knees." "You bnso man, j-ou evidently mean to luxuriate In tho situation, but I can go down on my knees hero. 111 soil my dress." Captain Neoly gravely spread his pocket handkerchief ohHho ground In front of him and Imperatively mo tloned her to kneel, nnd that sho did, and In the most approved volco of sup' pressed emotion began : "My adorable James; whllo deeply conscious of my great unworthluess ' "Don't montlon It." " I must utter the words that have so long trembled upon my lips I I ,'j "Well, utter them." " May I dare, bellevo thnt tho f eeli Ing I entertain for you Is In a measure reciprocated, and that nt no distant timo I may havo tho unutterable hapJ plness of calling my own ouo whosi "welfare so entirely Alls my soul and whoso slightest wish will ever bo ma law?" "You may," gravely nuswered tho be loved ono nnd ho bent forward to ralso tho accepted suitor from her knees. on, you promised you would re fuse" nnd Peggy looked ns though cold ehower bath hod suddenly de scended upon her. "Promised! I promised nothing of tho kind. I merely said what I would do in case I refused. But, you see, I do not refuse, I accept." (Copyright, 1817, by W, O.
