A Story of Summer Masquerading. She came smiling across the fioldp, hnr arms liuion with hawlliorn bloom. Harold Carlelon, as he saw her, thought her tho very incarna tion of spring, Bho was so young, fresh, and so full of exuberant vital ity. Yet she was only a cottager's daughter apparently, for her dress, though ni'at, was cheap. Shu glanc ed up at him as she passed, with her great, eloquent oyee, half shyly, half mischievously. Harold was fresh from Cambridge, and at eighteen thought himself in another sphere, even in poiut of age, from the rustic of thirteen. He waB disposed to bo patronizing. 'What's tho hurry, little Saucy Eyes?' ho said. 'Stop aud give a fellow a kiss!' 'My uamo isu't Saucy Eyes, and you know it. Gentlemen,' and she emphasized tho word, 'when thoy speak to mo call me Miss Kent.' Sho had stopped for a moment to say this, and sho walked on with head erect, and the air of a born princess. 'Whew,' whistled Harold, 'but I've mado a mess of it. No cottager's daughter has an accent like that. Who can sho be? A regular little spitfire, though.' Ho ventured to ask tho landlord about her at the small inn where he lodged. He had come to this pictur esque, hilly region ou a trout fishing excursion, and knew no ono there. 'Oh! that's the minister's daugh ter,' was tho reply. 'Had her arms full of hawthorn, you say? Yes, there's plenty of it here; one of the few places there is. We'vo miles of hedges. Miss Kent was taking the bloom homo to deck out tho parlor. You should see her decorating the church at Christmas. All the young ladies give way to her in that, though sho is but a child yet.' 'If sho grows up as pretty as she is now, she'll make many a fellow's heart ache,' said Harold, philoso phically, as he helped himself to an other brook trout, and in five min utes more, so excellent was tho din ner, he had forgotten all about the child. Years passed. Harold had taken his degree and was now studying law, tho profession of his father, Hugh Carleton, and his grandfather before him. Just before the summer vacation began ho had a letter from home. 'Wo shall ccrtainl)' expect you, dear,' his mother wrote, 'this year, and will take no excuses. It has been two years since you were home, remember. We have had such au accession too, to our society. Our new rector is a most excellent man, and has such a charming daughter, a very pretty girl, and so bright, intelligent and high bred.' Now, Harold, who had gone the summer beforo to France and Ger many, had thought of going this year to Norway had almost given his promise in fact; but at this ap peal, he wrote back that ho would co mo homo aud spend the whole vacation at 'Inglewood' the name of Hugh Carleton's place 'Dear mamma, it was so hard on her last year,' ho said to himself. Tbo very day that Harold came home the rector went away on a few weeks visit with his wife, aud tho last words he said to his daugh ter as he got into the carriage were : 'Good-bye, Katie, and don't forget to go up to 'Squire Carleton's aud ask to have the gardener come lo sec the garden. The 'Squire told me to send for him only yesterday. With his aid we can manage to keep the garden very nice.' I suppose I might as well go at once,' said Katie, when the carriage had disappeared. 'Dear old papa, I am sorry you aud ma have gone; but I'm going to bavo lots of fun with nobody but old Nannie to look after me and her eyes fairly danced with tho mischief of eighteen. Harold Carleton himself was in the garden when Katie came in. lie had arrived unexpectedly the night before, a week soouer than he had oxpectod. Ho was fond of a little amateur gardening at times, and was just now bending over a moss rose bush, hoe in hand. His back was toward Katie, and she, supposing him to be the gardener, called out : 'Oh, Adam, that's your name I hear; please ask Mr. Carleton if he cau't spare you for a couple of hours this afternoon. It's Dr. Kent's at tho rectory.' Harold glanced mischievously at tho pretty face half hidden by the tall lilies which sho had stopped to smell as she was speaking. Here was a chance for some sport. Katie had probably never seen the new gardener, who had come only a few days before. Why could not he personato tho old fellow? It was fortunate for him that ho had an old coat on, he thought. So, calling Adam, he took tho old man into tho plot, giving him a crown for hush money ; and in the afternoon made his appearance at tho door, asking for orders. 'Oh, Adam, is it you ?' cried Katie, coming forward. 'Let mo show you your work. I'll put on my garden hat and be out in a minute.' Harold presented rather a curious appearance as ho followed Katie down the walk ; his usually elegant aftiro had been changed for a jacket and trowsers of coarse Jeans ; and his dark, curling hair was covered by a red wig, similar in color to Adam's fiery locks. Fie had assumed the same shuflling, awkward gait, also. Here is your work, Adam,' said Katie; 'tio up tho roses aud then weed this bed of hyacinths, train this wisteria, aud if you have any more time come to me for further orders.' Harold bowed awkwardly, while a mischievous gleam shot from the brown eyes as ho proceeded to tic up tho wayward roses. 'This is golfing interesting.' ho ob served. 1 wonder what my next order will be? By George, but Miss Kate queen il all ! What a perfect little beauty she is! Whew! how hot it is.' He wiped the perspira tion from his heated brow. 'I begin lo understand bow the original Adam must have felt wheu commanded lo earn his bred by tho sweat of his brow. There, tho wis teria is tied up. Faith mum,' be said, as Katie re-appeared, 'I was just cumin' to sec whatever else thrre was to be did.' 'How nice you've made things look !' cried Katie, as she glanced around. 'Hut it's warm work, isn't it ! Adam's your name, I believe. I am glad,' allably, 'to make your ac quaintance, Adam.' 'Faith, mum, but it is that sumo as you say,' replied Adam, drawing his straw hat further, down over his eyes, still further to hide bis face. 'Well, Adam, train up this hedge and then you may go,' she answered, and swept away. Several days went by. The pre teuded Adam never failed to be on hand in the afternoon. Int in the morning Harold Carleton, in his own proper person, had fishing, boating, and picnic excursions, most of which Katie attended, for by Ibis time the Squire's wife had called, bringing her son, and, of course afler that, Katie was included in everything that went on. Katie, too, had learned to like Harold Carleton very much, for no one more genial or whole-souled over existed. He was generous to a fault, frank and open-hearted as the day, and had outgrown the conceit and coxcombery of bis youth. Ouc morning when Katie went -into tho garden unexpectedly, she found Adam fanning himself with bis straw hat, which was usually drawn so closely over his eyes, and she caught a quick glance that re minded her of Harold. But it was only for a moment. He had not seen her, nor did lie see her when she quietly seated her self in a vine-covered summer-house and took out some pretty, graceful work with which she soon became quite absorbed. The long, drowsy afternoon was wearing away. Nothing but the tinkle of the little brook back of tho rectory, tbo sound of the scythe which Adam was wielding, and the murmur of the bees broke the silence of the place. Suddenly Katie's ear was arrested by a clear, manly voice, singing a bar from a favorite opera, in a rich, ringing tonor. She started to her feet and looked out. Only last evening sho bad sang with Harold Carleton that very soug, and this surely was his voice again. But no ono was in sigbf ex cept Adam, who was industriously hoeing peas. The truth was Harold, ignorant of Katie's presence, had forgotten himself ; but he was now furious at his indiscretion, for he had heard Katie and knew what called her out. 'Adam, has Mr. Carlelon been here ?' feho asked. 'I thought I heard him just now.' 'No, mum, it's not yet that I did say him.' uaid the apparently stolid Irishman. 'I was sure it was his voice,' said Katie, looking a trifle disappointed. iie would cross-examine Katie and thus discover her real feelings to ward himself. So he asked, care lessly, though his whole heart was in her answer: 'Did yecs wish to say him, miss? For it's meesilf as will be afthcr shilling the loikes of him to ycca.' 'No,' said Katie, decidedly. 'Stop talking and go to work. I am afraid yon are getting lazy,' and Katie walked off with her most queenly step. Whew !' whistled Harold. 'She's too bright to be caught in that way. Thinks Adam will fell ou her. Get ling lazy, am I? Well, it ain't be cause I don't work hard enough,' with a doleful gaze at his blistered hands, as he set vigorously to work, adding, 'even as Adam, I must wiu tho good opinion of my Eve' Tho next afternoou Katie went to call ou a friend, and Harold discon tentedly watched her departure. It was so pleasant to know that sho was in the summer-house or about tho grounds that he did uot liko to go away. 'I can't wear that coufounded wig any longer,' he exclaimed. 'It's color even is enough to set mo on fire. Now, this is refreshing. Bcppo, you scamp, bring back that wig. What if your mistress should come? Whew! must I chase after that dog this scorching day?' Bcppo, Katie's dog, had run oil" with the wig, as tho reader has con jectured, and on c1i.ibu being given to him, rushed to tho summer-house and laid the wig at the feet of his mistress, who had returned unex pectedly. 'Why, Beppo, what have yon there?' she cried. 'It looks liko the scalp of old Adam. I wonder in ' And shi broke into a fit of ringing laughter as she met the astonished Harold face to face. Mr. Carleton!' 'Miss Katie!' Then, unable to resist it, he also broko info a hearty lauiih. 'Oh! so you're not Adam,' said Katie, demurely, at last. 'No, bul I will be if you'll only be my Eve!' ho cried, with a touch of his old boyish impudence. 'Oh, Katie, darling, 1'vo learned to love you so dearly say you will. We'll make another paradise where we can be happy together, aud I shau't be obliged to work so hard,' breaking into laughter as ho saw Katie's roguish look and wiping his drip ping forehead. 'Very well," said Katie. 'I'll think of it. But you must remember it was not a woman who made trouble in flic ardcn Ibis timo.' And she added, archly, 'but I'll forgive yon for deceiving me if you'll forgive me for ' 'For what?' asked Harold, as she hesitated. 'For not letting you know that 1 guessed your secret. I knew from the beginning lhat you were not Adam. That lirt day when I pre tended to be smelling the lillics, I had seen that yon were at lcat no! a gardener. 'And you let me work all Ibis time. and it is so hot,' with a crestfallen look. 'Yes. You deserved it for your trick. But I am glad you can work and obey orders. You mav have it to do sometime yon know.' 'Every man has, they say, when he falls in love,' he retorted. 'Yes,' said she, saucily, 'and you mustn't hope to be ni: exception. But there, there, isn't that quite enough?' for he was devouring her with kisses. 'I declare you are as impudent as you were live years ago.' 'Five years ago ?' 'Yes. Oh ! you've forgotten. Men always do. It is only women who remember.' 'What do you mean's" Her eyes danced with mischief. She was enjoying his perplexity to the full. 'Well, I'll tell you a fairy talc. Onco on a time there, stop now, or I'll never got on there was a little girl coming across a field with her arms full of hawthorn bloom.' He gave a quick start. Katie went on demurely. 'And sho met au impudent young fellow, a collegian, who thought himself. a prince, but wasn't. And he called her 'Saucy Eyes,' tho con ceiled ' What ! you're 'Suncy Eyes,' arc you? Oh! I remember it all. Who'd have thought it? Why, it's the jol liest fairy talc I ever heard. Only then sho wouldn't let mo kiss her, and now ' 'Now, somebody will get his ears boxed if he doesn't behave himself. One must draw the lines somewhere, aud half a hundred surely ' 'Well, since you are so cruel. But when did you first recognize me?' 'The first day I saw you at leisure the day you called with your mother.' 'And,' said Harold, reflectively, 'thero was always something in your face I thought familiar. Yes, after all you are Saucy Eyes.' It Cost too ,TIu;Ii. A Chicago man visiting Cincin nati was being shown around by a citizen who said, "Now let's go and see the Widows' Home."

Iai Ilcuur lay7 Willi tho above words an English societ y journal opens an article on tho current habit of good society in search of pleasure. It is unneces sary to say that pleasure, if it can bo taken only as many fashionables take it, is not worth tho time and money that it costs. 2io one enjoys this world's diversions so littlu as those who pay most for their fun and de vote most time to it. At the thcatro and opera the people who appear most pleased arc those who 'sit in tho cheapest scats and wear tha poorest clothes, and elsewhere tho rule is the same. All else being equal, the man who has the most money to spend can secure the most enjoyment in this world ; hut one thing that thousand of people seem to forget is, that with all these things with pleasant poibilitics a, common rule of the table holds good it is no use to eat unless yon have an appetite. Tlio most forlorn diuer out in New York is the man who cats several dinners daily, and the most unhappy man at the thea trethe man who finds fault with everything and enjoys nothing is ho who goes fo tho thcatro every night.
