THE MERCHANT'S CRIME.
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

“Well, what shall. I say? Just

“That is not neoessary in mar

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

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.

Though the guests numbered eighty,
tho whole dinner was served on gold

and vases likewise were of massive
gold. Really two dlnnors were served,
becutise it was Friday. Beside each
plate lay two menus, a iisli menu on

with the usual gold tenements and the

every one was asked by the lackeys
