ONLY A SCHOOL-TEACHER.
"But s)ie"s on!y a school-teacherr
said Bosa Vernon.
Kosa was a bright, black-eyed little
lassie, not much over four feet high,
and us plump as a September p?ach a
girl who liked to wear jewelry and real
lace, and was Tory particular a
to the. set of her dresses. Moreover,
there wasa good deal of the aristocratic
element in Miss Veraon'a nature, con
siderably more than was exactly fitting
for a daughter of the Uepubl:c, and she
was perpetually endeavoring to incul
cate the same into her brother, and his
handsome collego mate Henry Leslie.
"Weil, what then?"' demanded Bob
Vernon, stoutly. "She is as pretty as
1 den't know what she isn't as pretty
as! A lit'.lo wikl-ilower a violet just
opening a tiny white rosebud, that's
what she's liko."
"Upon my word!" cried Bosa, sarcas
tically, 'Bob growing romantic! What
are we to expect next?"
"The subject is an inspiring one, Miss
Vernon,'' said Harry Leslie, dryly.
"Does she get three or ten dollars a
week?" demanded Bosa, with a super
cilious toss of her liTad. -and does she
board round
"5toc boards at Squire Macpher;oii's,''
said Harry, ''and as for the salary, 1
can't tell yxt, hut if you choose, I'll
make inquiries."
"And I'm going round to Ihe squire's

"Bob!" ejaculated his horilied si3ter,
"would you po far compromise our
social position a3 to "
"Compromise, a fiddlestick!"
' "But, Bob, now, of all times in the
world, just when Major Taliaferro and
his family are coming to the place, and
cr.e naturally wants to retain a formost
.place in society."
"Hang Major Taliaferro and his
family! How are they any better than
Squiro Macpher30ii, and the dear little

""Tiiey are very wealthy aul aristo
wxtie, Bob, and they have traveled in
Europe, and taare's the major's niece,
who will inherit all the. money, and "
"Oh, is that all ? I really can't see
the occasion for falling down and wor
shiping Major Taliaferro on any of the
scores you hava mentioned. If his
mayorship should excommunicate me
ou account of the Markharns, I must
submit to the dreadful decree, and be
come au outcast, but until then 1 shall
take tbe liberty of doing precisely as I
please. Come, Harry."
"Then you arc actually going to
Squire cpherson's, a place where no
body visits?"
, "Yes, actually and truly."
Rosa's hp curved, but she chose to
hazard no futher remonstrance.
She was in the village drug store, one
afternoon, a few days subsequently,
choosing a book from among the well
thumbed circulating library, when
Squire Macpherson's rickety old family
carryall drove up, and a young lady
alighted.
Rosa turned and glanced at her with
a sort of languid, infoleut curiosity, as
ifatsome raraavis that; fortune had
throwain her way.
"So that is Mabel Markham, who
teaches the district school?'' she
thought, contemptuously.
Miss Markham was slight, and fair,
.and delicate, wiih big blue eyes which
looked :it you with the solt, wondering
innocence of a child, skin smooth aud
pink as an oleander petal, and a pro
fusion of fair, flossy curls rippling like
a golden cataract over her shoulders.
Her dress was very plaiu a dark
brown gingham, with collar and cuffs
of the mos gutless linen, a bow, of
blue ribbon at her throat, and a hat of
line straw, trimmed with blue ribbon
also.
"l'ou could buy it all for five dollars,"
thought Uosa, scornfully, as she gave
her own green and gold changeable silk
a rustle and glanced at the broad gold
bracelets that she wore.
"Why, Mabel, my darling, is it you?''
Mrs. Wylie had entered at that
moment.
Mrs. Wylie was the rector's wite, a
bustling, genial matron, of forty or so,
and was hugging and kissing Mabel
Markham with euapressement.
"How very fortunate that I should
have met you here, my dear, and how
well you look! Ah, teaching agrees
with you, 1 see! And how is your sick
friend, Miss Claremont?''
She is better, Mrs. Wylie."
"Is she? I'm sure I'm delighted to,
bear it, "
Here the chirping litt'e lady broke
off abruptly, for she had just caught
sight os Bosa, still glancing over the
worn backs of the well-read volumes,
and yawning behind her French kid
gloved hands.
She ran up to her at once.
"Rosa Vernon, you here, too.' Why
you are the very person I wanted to
see! Come and let me Introduce you
to my friend, Miss Markham?"
She laid her hand lightly on Rosa's
arm as she spoke, but Miss Vernon
drew back, a little haughtily.
Excuse me, Mrs.-Wylie, but I have
no anxiety to become acquainted with
a SChooUeacher,"
lira. Wylie looked bewildered.
"Out my dear, you don't understand
that
-1 do understand all that I cart to
Mrs. Wylie you will please excuse me
from the introduction."
As she drew coldly back she saw
with inten. at satisfaction that Miss
Markham from her position at the
counter beyond had doubtless heard
tho whole conversation. For the
crimson had overspread the oval cheek
turned toward them, and mabel's head
drooped art instant
Oh, dear crietl Airs. Wylie ia evident
consternation, "I do hope she hasn't
heard us!"
"It is quite a matter of indifference
to nie whether she hai or not!" said
Rosa; 'she is only a school-teacher.
Mrs. Wylie turned away, hurt and
disappointed, aud Uosa swept out of
the store.
"Mabel, de:irest, you won't mind a
petulant child's ill'bred criticism"?"'
she pleaded, coming close to Miss
Markham, and possessing herself of
one slender little hand.
"Xo, Mrs. Wylie."
"And you'll come home to tea with
me?"
But Mabel declined she had a
pressing engaceinent, she said.
Whether that engagement had any
thing to do with Mr. Bob Vermon, we
didn't pr. tend to say, but certain it
was that she walked with him in the
moon-light that night, under the
gray old Macpherson mansion, until
tho village town-clock chimed eleven!
And the next morning Bob pro
claimed to the astonished ears of the
family group, gathered around the
breakfast-table, that he was engaged!
"Bob! Engaged! And to whom?"
"To Miss Mabel Markham."
Rosa uttered a little breathless
scream of dismay.
"To Ma'.el Markham! Oh, Bob, you
reckless, imprudent fellow just when
Major Taliaferro's niece wa coming to
reside in the place, and they say she is
lovely!"
"She canDot be more lovely than my
Mabel, and I do not choose to submit
to the imputation of being a fortune
hunter. I a;n able to earn my own
living and my wife's, too. You will
call on my fiancee, Uosa, won't you?"
"1 will never speak to her."
"Then you can let it alone," said
Robert Vernon, flushing a little; "only
I did not know you were such a fool
Uosa."
And so the matter rested for a few
days.
"A party at the Taliaferror's with
tents on the lawn and a band of music
from New York! Oh, how splendid!"
ejaculated Miss Vernon, dancing about
the parlor lloor with the note of invita
tion in her hand. "So the family have
really arrived at the place and you
got me the invitation from Harry
Leslie! So kind of you! And will the
majors' niece be there?"
''Y'es she will lie there."
"Have you seen her?"
" Yes often."
"Oh I do so long to see her! I must
sei'd to the city for a new while grena
dine drees, and a wreath of pink ger
aniumsroses are so common!"
And !osa sat down at once to write
the note to her dressmaker.
'Of course yon won't go, Bob?" she
said, loftily.
"Why shouldn't I go?" demanded
Bob, defiantly eyeing his sister.
"Because vour liaticee won't be there.'
"Don't be too sure of that."
"1 am sure of it; who would invite a
district school-teacher? And the
Taliaferro-s are so exclusive and aristo
cratic, too."
"Mabel will bo there," said Bob,
briefly; but that was all he could be
induced to say for the gratification of
his sister's curiosity.
The evening of the much-talked-of
party finally arrived, with a full moon,
and the loveliest of September nights,
to do all due honor to its festivities
Rosa arrived rather late impatient as
she was to view the internal arrange
ments of the stately old stone, mansion
she would sooner have cut oft' her right
hand than been unfashionably early,
."he was dressed in her white grenadine,
with the wreath of pink blossoms
eucircling her jetty hair, aud had the
agreeable consciousness that she was
becomingly attired, and looked very
well. Harry Leslie met her at the door
of the all ready thronged drawing-room
and offered her his arm to conduct her
to the host and hostesss.
Major Taliaferro, a fine looking,
dignified, elderly gentleman of the old
school, stood at the head of tbe room,
with his wife beside him a stately
lady in rustling white brocade, and
such diamonds as almost dazzled
Hosa's eyes with their blaze. As she
inclined her head to them the major
took her hand kindly.
"Miss Vernon, allow roe to introduce
you to my niece, Miss Markham."
Yes it was Mabel Markham, dressed
in white tulle, with pearls and simple
white roses in her golden curls of hair;
and Bob stood beside her, holding her
boquet with conscious pride in his fair
companion's winningbeauty.
Rosa looked so bewildered that her
brother burst out laughing.
"I thought Miss Markham was a
school-teacher'" stammered Rosa,
scarcely knowing what she wu saying
in her confusion.
"You were perfectly correct in your
surmises, Miss Vernon," answered
Mabel, quietly; "nor wu I ashamed of
