MY HORATIO ALGER, JR. CHAPTER XIII—Continued. ••Do you go back to the store in the evening?” asked the young lady, as he rose from the table. ••Yes, I think so. I am expected to keep open in the evening.” “But you have an assistant?” -Yes.” “Then I advise you not to make yourself a slave to business. We shall hope for the pleasure of your company occasionally in the eve ning.” James Cromwell felt flattered, and looking full in the young lady’s face, he thought to himself, “She is very pretty, and she seems to show me a great deal of politeness.” “Thank you, Miss Manton, for your kind invitation. I will accept it very soon—as soon as I think I can be spared from my business.” “You will be quite welcome," said Clara, graciously. “Where ignorance is bliss’tis folly to be wise.'” So runs an old proverb This was illustrated in the case of James Cromwell, who ignorant of the real opinion entertained of him by Miss Manton, began, after a while, to conceive the delusive thought that she had taken a fancy to him. but we are anticipating. Three even ings later, when supper was con cluded, James Cromwell made no movement to go back to the store. This was quickly observed by Clara, who said, with a smile: “You are going to remain with us this evening are you not, Mr. Crom well!” “If it will be agreeable,” he said. “Can you doubt it?” she said, with a look which quickened the pulsa tions of Cromwell’s heart “I get so tired passing the evening aione. Papa gets hold of a paper or maga zine, and I am left to my own de vices for amusement” She.invited Cromwell to their pri vate parlor, which was furnished with a piano. “Do you like music, Mr. Crom well ?’’ she inquired. “Very much indeed,” he answered, though the truth was he scarcely knew one tune from another. •■Perhaps you are a musician?” “Not at all,” he said hastily, and in this statement at least, he was correct “Won’t you play some thing, Miss Manton?” “I haven’t anything new, but if you don’t mind old pieces, I will play for you. ” She played a noisy instrumental piece, to which James Cromwell lis tened in silence, with very little idea of what was being played. His eyes were fixed rather on the young lady herself. “How do you like it, Mr. Crom well?” “Very much, indeed,” said Crom well, hitching his chair a little nearer the instrument, and then col oring, lest the movement should have been observed. “I think I will sing you some thing,” said Clara “I don’t sing in public, but before an intimate friend I do not feel so bashful.” The words, “intimate friend," slipped out so easily and naturally that she seemed unconscious of them, but they were intentional and she glanced out of the corners of her eyes to watch their effect. She saw that Cromwell’s eyes brightened, and the color came to his pale cheeks, and then she knew that they had produced the effect that she had in tended. “She is certainly very charming,” thought Cromwell, “and she is very friendly. I don’t think 1 ever met a young lady so attractive.” ••He’s getting in love,” said Clara to herself. “It’ll be fun to see him when he gets carried away by the tender passion. I’ve heard of elo quent eyes, but 1 don’t think his are capable of looking like anything ex cept those of a ferret. Well, I’ll see the play through.” hne accordingly sang the well known song. “Then I’ll Remember Thee," putting into it as much mean ing as possible, and occasionally glancing in a languishing manner at the young man who sat uneasily in his chair, and began to feel the symptoms of love. He sat as if spell- ! bound when she had finished. ••Why don’t you compliment me. Mr. Cromwell?” she asked, turning with a smile. “Do you know you are wanting in your duty, sir? Every young lady expects to be compli mented, when she has done a young gentleman the favor to sing to him.” “It was because I was so charmed,” said James Cromwell, with more readiness than might have been ex pected. “I was so charmed that I was incapable of saying a word.” "I am afraid you are like the rest of your sex. a sad flatterer, Mr. Cromwell,” said the young lady,shak ing her head, with a smile “You don't expect me to believe that.now, | do you?” “Yes, I do, Miss Manton, for it is perfectly true," said James Crom well, plucking up courage; "you slug like a nightingale." ,, , So the evening was passed. The young lady paid assldious attention to her visitor, and when they parted her task was accomplished. James Cromwell was in love. CHAPTER XIV. A Declaration and How It Was Received. Robert Raymond did not propose to rebel against bis guardian’s ar rangements, however disagreeuble they were to himsell Ho had writ ten a letter to Paul. Morton, and he hopod that his remonstrance would have some effect. But meanwhile he had determined to accept his fate, and act in accordance with the instructions which had been given him. There was a private school in Madison, kept by a college graduate, and to this school Robert was sent by James Cromwell. He found him self the most advanced pupil in the classics, and he soon found that his teacher’s acquirements were far from extensive or thorough. Still he could learn by his own efforts, though not of course, as well as at his former school, and he resolved to make the best of it. Meanwhile the flirtation between James Cromwell and Clara Manton continued. The young lady was al ways gracious, and 10 far as her manner went, might readily be sup posed to have formed a decidod in clination for her admirer, for such the druggist had now become. She had a certain dash and liveliness of manner which fascinated him, and he felt flattered in no Blight degree that such a young lady should have Bingled him out as her favorite. One evening there was to be a concert in the village. * James Cromwell brought home tickets, and said diffidently, '•Miss Manton, will you do me the favor to accompany me to tho concert this evening?” "Thank you, Mr. Cromwell," she answered, smiling graciously, "I will accept with pleasure. I was wishing to go, but papa does not reel very well to-day, so I had made up my mind that I must pass my time at home. At what hour does the concert commence?” "At half-past seven." "Will it be time if I am ready at a quarter past?” "Quite so.” “Then you may depend on me." Strange as it may appear, it was the first time in his life that James Cromwell ever acted as escort to a Lady in visiting a place of public en-. tertainment, and he felt a degree of awkwardness because of that But when Clara Menton appeared she was so gracious and sociable that all his mauvaise haute disappeared, and he walked arm in arm with her, feeling easier and more unembar rassed than he had supposed to be possible. When they entered the hall he glanced around him with pride at the thought it would be pre ceived that he was the chosen caval ier of such an attractive young lady. Of the concert it is unnecessary to speak. It closed at a comparatively early hour, and the two wended their way homeward. ' "Shall we prolong our walk a lit tle?" he said. "It is still early, and it is very pleasant." "Yes; that will be pleasant," she returned. "Papa is probably asleep by this time, and won’t miss me. What a charming concert we had." "None of them sang as well as you, Miss Manton,” said Cromwell. "O, now you are flattering mo, Mr. Cromwell. 1 cannot permit that, you know,” she said playfully. “No,”, he said earnestly, "I am not flattering you, Miss Clara. You are so—so—I hope you’ll excuse me, but you are so beautiful and attract- 1 Lve that—” "O, Mr. Cromwell!" uttered Clara; adding to herself. "I dare say he’s going to propose. Well, it’s just as well now as at any other time. How ridiculous it makes him look, being in love!” Luckily unconscious of the thoughts that were passing through tho mind of his companion, Crom well burst out, "But it's true. Miss Clara. I love you; and I don’t think I can live without you. Will you marry me?” ' “I am afraid you have said such things to a great many other young ladies before. How can I believe you are in earnest?” "No; on my honor,” he said earn estly, "I never loved before. Do not doubt the sincerity of my attach ment Don’t you think you can look favorably upon my suit?” . "Perhaps I might,” she answered coyly. "That is, in time. It is so sudden, you know. It Js not more than a month since I first met you.” "But in that month I Lave learned to love you better than any one I over knew. Miss Clara. Can’t you give me some encouragement? Tell me that I am not wholly disagreeable to you?” ,yuu uau ucen, wouiu i na.e ac cepted your invitation this evening, Mr. Cromwell?” ••Then you do like me a little?” he said, overjoyed. ••Perhaps a little,” she said co quettishly. After some time. Clara thought it polite to confess that she had herself no particular objections to him as a husband—a confession which filled the enamored druggist with delight — ••but.” she proceeded. "I cannot marry without my father s approval ” “But do you think he will object to me?” asked Cromwell, in dismay. •■Papa is a very peculiar man,” answered Clara. “I never can under take to say beforehand how ho will look upon any proposition. Perhaps he may give his consent at ouce. or perhaps it may take considerable time to porsuado him. I cannot toll. But whatever he decide*, I cannot disobey him." VVhon Clara returned home her fathor happened to be .still up. He had become interested in something that he was reading, and this caused him to defer his hour of retiring. ■ ••Well, papa," said Clara, "I’ve got soma news for you." •‘Whut is it?” ••I’ve had an offer," ••An offer? WhofromP" ••Oh, from that ridiculous drug gist, Cromwell." ••Well, what did you say?" “I referred him to you. He’s go ing to call to morrow." • v . “Well, what shall. I say? Just givo me instructions. Do you love himP” •■Stuff and nonsense, papa! As if anybody could! Such a ridiculous creature as he is!" ••Then I am to doollne the honor of his relationship?" ••Mot exactly." • • > ••nut you don t lovo mmr" “That is not neoessary in mar riago. Thank Providence, I ain not sentimental, and novor shall break my heart for love. When I marry I want to marry a man who has got some money. Just And out if he's worth ten thousand dollars. If he is, and will agree to settle half of it j on mo, 1 will become Mrs. Cromwell whenever he says the word. Other* wise, I won’t. But of course, this must be your condition, not mine. I am supposed to be perfectly indiffer ent to money. I dare say I shall rail against you on account of your mercenary spirit, if he oan't meet the condition, aud comes to complain to me. You won’t mind that will you?’’ “Not a particle. Rail away, if you think best. It won’t break any bones.” “Well, I am rather tired, and will go to bed. Good night, papa! Just let my suitor understand that you are inexorable, will you?” “Very good. i understand you. ” CHAPTER XV. A Mercenary Parent. James Cromwell lost no time the next morning in waiting upon Mr. Manton. He was In that state when suspense is intolerable, and he wanted to have his fate decided at once. Accordingly, soon after break last, he was introduced , into the presence of Clara’s father, whom he found a.one. The young lady, con siderately foreseeing the visit, had gone out for a walk. Mr. Manton was sitting indolently in a rocking chair, reading. “Good morning, Mr. Cromwell,” he said. “Take a chair, if you please, and excuse my rising. I am not young and strong like you, but an invalid.” “Oh, certainly,” said Cromwell, doing as directed. “1 have come to see you, Mr. Manton,” he proceeded, “on important business.” “Indeed!” said his companion, whose cue was to assume entire ignorance until informed of the na ture of his errand. , “You have a daughter,” proceeded the young man, nervously. “Yes, and an excellent girl she is, ’ said Mr. Man too, warmly.” I am sorry to say that this was not Mr. Manton's real opinion. He and Clara, in fact, used to quarrel pretty often in private, and he had more than once styled her a cross-grained vixen and termagant, and used other terms equally endearing. "Yes,” said James Cromwell, fer vently, “your daughter is charming, Mr. Manton.” “She is a good girl It would break my heart to part with her!” said the father. “You wouldn’t object to her being married, would you?” said Cromwell, alarmed at this last statement. "1 guppose she will ma’-ry somo timo,” said Mr. Manton. “No, I should not feel it right to interfere with her marrying, if she desired it. Far be it from me to blight her young affections." [TO BE CONTINUED.] Spoiled His Kyes. An Italian, who had a pair of showy black eyes, and was excessive ly vain of them, permitted himself, in a peculiarly outrageous manner, to insult a defenseless young Eng lishwoman who had recently lost her husband. f An American painter slapped his face, and received his challenge. In the art of fence the American was proficient; and, as swords were chosen. I asked him, writes Henry Harland in the Idler, on the night before the meoting what he was going to do to the littlo beast. “Not kill him?” “Oh, no, I shan't kill him. I don’t want to soil my hands with his dirty little life. I think I'li just put out one of his handsome black eyes.” The next morning, in a wood near Virottay.tho men crossed their swords, made a few feints and passes, and then, be fore they had been at it a full half minute, the Italian gave a scream. Surely enough, the American had pinked him in the eye. 1 he I set Wu Pint. Teacher, to new pupil—What is your last name, my little man ? i New Pupil—Tommy. Teacher— What is your full name?
