‘But, then, I left the inn first,’ objected Elliott.
‘Weil, suppose we toss for it.’
‘I suppose me must,’ said Bob, gloomily, producing a cent and spinning :t up in the air. ‘Heads it is Just my luck. Of course, if- after your proposal the young lady thinks fit to refuse you I am at liberty to do whatever I choose. Is that agreed!’
‘Certainly,’ I answered, and we both pushed on rapidly through the shrabbery, gaining confidence as we saw some prospect of attaining our object.
‘There she is!’ whispered Bob, as we saw the flutter of a pink dress among the trees in front of ws.’
‘There’s a man talking to her!’
‘Impossible!’
‘There is.’
If there was he must have disappeared very rapidly on heaing our approach for when we got near enough to her to see her whole figure she was alone. She turned with a start of surprise, and seemed inclined fora moment to run away from us, but then, recovering herself, she came toward us. As she advanced I saw she was one of the most lovely girls that I had ever seen in my life—not at all the doli-like sort of beauty that I had imagined from what I knew of her training, but a splendid, well- developed young woman with a firmly set lower jaw and delicately molded chin which would have been almost masculine in their force kad they not been relieved by a pair of pensive blue eyes and a sweetly sensitive mouth. Somehow, as I found her steady gaze directed at me, all the well-turned speeches which I had rehearsed in my mind seemed to fade entirely from my memory and leave nothing but an utter blank be- hind. The amorous gallop with which we bore down upon her subsided into a ridicu- lous trot, and when eventually | pulled up a few yards in front of her, I could no more have uttered a word of explanation than I could have recovered my Jost hat or con- cealed the gaps in my clothing.
‘I fancy you must have mistaken your way,’ she said ina low, sweet voice, with- out the slightest appearance of being affect- ed by this apparition of young men.
I felt Bob nudge me from behind and
‘short time ago. At least I suppose it was ‘him—a big gaunt fellow with a great! stick.’
‘Heaven save us?’ I ejaculated.
‘However, he has passed now, and the question is what are we to do?
‘Persevere, I responded manfully. ‘It | would be more dangerous to go back than to go on, sincs that truculent gatekeeper is bebind us.’
‘Right you are, said Ellictt, with a melancholy attempt at cheerfulness. ‘You can lead on, and I'l] follow.’
‘No, you go first,’ I answered, not, I am bound tosay, from eny innate courtesy or feeling of politeness, but with an idea that dangers from tho abominations meu- tioned on the placard would be lessened thereby.
We threaded our way through the forest in Indian file, and afler advancing for about half a mile were evidently close to the edge of it. The trees were smaller and the unplanted spaces larger. Suddenly Bob pulled up and pointed im front of him.
‘There’s the house,’ he said.
There it was, sure enough, a stern look-
whisper something aout “going ahead” and *‘making the running,” but my only inelination under the gaze of those calm, tranguil eyes was to make the running in
opposite direction at the top of my speed. (Concluded in our nect,)

Souris Temperance Alliance, PUBLIC MEETING.
A aot very large meeting—about one hundred being present—took place on Wednesday evening in the Hall, Chapel Street. The president, Rev. D. F. Me- Donald, P. P., occupied the chair, and in his opening address explained the object of the meeting. He regretted the smallness of the audience, which was, no doubt, owing to the bad roads, the coldness of the evening, and the Hall not being very com- fortable, but still considered it a very good beginning of the temperance campaign for the coming season.
The first to address the meeting-—-after the chairman-—was your ‘‘Lancaster.” No
ing edifice of gray stone with a large num-| nistake about it, this man ranks among our ber of small, glimmering windows. There} post public writers and speakers, and the was a lawn in front of it, very tastefully} anner in which tiie audience called for laid out, which somewhat relieved the!}i. and received him, showed he was both

gloomy and prison-like appearance of the building. No one was to be seen either outside or at the window. We held a council of war as to what our next step should be. :
‘We can't walk right up to the house under some excuse or other, can we?’ said Bob.
‘It would be too dangerous,’ I remarked. ‘There is no saying what they might do to us. They seem to-be very savage people.’
‘Besides, it would be the very last way to have any chance of saying a few words to the young lady,’ added my companion.
‘The whole thing makes a deuced roman- tic situation,’ I observed.
‘IT wonder what Pendleton would think of us if he saw us?’ | ‘Poor shy Pendleton! I think he would put us both down as madmen.’
‘It’s a pity he’s so retiring,’ said Bob. ‘But I say, Jack, what do you intend to say to the young lady when you see her?’ ‘Why, I propose to tell her of my love straight off. and ask her to fly with me. It must be all done to-day. I’m net coming in here again on any consideration. Be- sides, I think it will not be difficult to carry a romantic girl of that sort by a kind of coup de main.’
‘But that’s exactly my plan,’ said Bob, plaintively.
‘The Habe it is! I ejaculated. ‘By George! There she is —
The last exclamation was drawn from me by the appearance upon the steps of the house of an elegantly dressed young lady. Her features were invisible, owing to the distance, but her erect carriage and the long, graceful curves of her figure showed that report had not exaggerated her charms. She turned cs she came out to address an elder woman, her mother, pro- bably, who followed her. The latter seem- ed, as far as we could make out, to be weeping, forshe raised her handkerchief to her eyes several times, while the girl passed her arm round her neck as if to console her. Inthis she appeared to succeed, for the elder went back into the house, and the youger sprang down the three steps at a single bound and hurried away, with long, elastic steps, down the path which led into the shrubbery.
‘We must follow her,’ I cried.
‘Take your time,’ said Bob. ‘We must come to some agreement before we start. It would be too ridiculous for the two of us to plung? at her together and begin pour- ing owt two confessions of love.’
‘It might startle her,’ I remarked, ‘espe- jvially as she has never seen either of us i

welcome and populer. He is always found at his post on behalf of temperance, and at this meeting occupied the platform in a manner which telighted the audience, as he oveupied their attention by an eloquence an earnestness peculiarly his own, while pictur- ing “‘the evila of intemperance and the advantages of temperance’ in chrilling and choice language. His peroration called for hearty applause, amid which he resumed his seat. ;
Rev. Gregory McDonald, P. P. St. Margaret’s, gave an earnest and convincing address, in the course of which he showed the expense the liquor traffic and the use of intoxicants put the country to. He spoke earnestly and eloquently upon the moral responsibility of isan in reference to his action in this matter. The warnings of the Sacréd Scriptures were appealed to, and their denunciation of drunkenness forcibly explained. He showed it to be the duty of every good citizen, who wished the welfare of society, and had at heart the best inter- ests of the community, both spiritual and temporal, to come forward and assist in a work which tended tv promote the welfare and happiness of the pecple. Loud applause followed the Rev. Father's address; and the
Rev. R. B, Kinley ascended the plat- form. In a fluent and able speech he entered very fully into the religious aspect of the temperance question, Jn forcible and well put language be criticized severely the action of those in the community who had not the moral courage to come forward and take the side of temperance. He showed where selfish motives, supposed business interests, and thorough disregard of the welfare of others, amounting from a moral standpoint to positive dishonesty, kept some men frora taking a right course, and coming forward as they ought to do on the side of temperance. This finished the addresses, and Mr. Kinlay retired, heartily applauded.
On motion of Rev. J. G. Cameron, seconded by Mr. Davis, the meeting ad- journed. The next public meeting is re- ported to take place early in June, when the weather will, most likely, be warmer; and a large attendance of both ladies and gentlemen expected. -
