‘Suppose she would say ne, he burst out, seemingly apropos to nothing at al}. eee

‘And suppose she shouldn't,’ observe Gay, gaily.

‘Ttell you old fellow, its exaclly like having a ‘ooth pulled out. Your friends stand by and say, ‘ Be a man, its nothing.’ ‘tis not they who are under the doctor's foreceps.’ j

‘Complimentary to Miss Glen,

‘Nonsense. You know what I mean. But really and truly | have tried and can’t do it.’

‘Very well.’ said Barnes indifferent- ly, then it is an understood thing that you are to die an old bachelor.

‘T didn’t say that.

‘Oh 1 beg pardon. You expect Fan- ny is going to propose to you —that’s It,

‘You are a beartless miscreant,’ Ell- erslie cried out,laughing, half impatient as he sprang tohis feet and tossed the remnant ef his cigar into the fire, ‘ and I shall not waste amy more words upon you, unless, indeed, you'll go round to the fair with me,

‘Where Finny Clen hasa_ stand ? Not if I know it! The money market is rather tight with me just.at present,and these fairs are no better than a den of robbers, where a defenceless young man is concerned,’

‘And Martyn Ellerslie went on his way alone.

The hall was alla glitter with gas lights and fragrant with flowers when he got there; the pretty feminine sparks lurke! each behind her table well laden, were allsmiles and dimples, while the throng ef victims ebbed and flowed around them.

Mr. Ellersiie found himself greeted with acclamations.

‘You will take a share, Mr. Ellers- lie ?”

‘ Do please,put your name down here, Mr. Ellerslie; there are only ten blanks left.’

‘Oh, Mr. Ullerslie, you are the very one we are waiting for. I’ve kept seven for you—seven is always a lucky number,’

‘Mr. Ellerslie, Mr. Ellerslie! don’t pray, spend all your money until you've taken a share in this mammoth doll, with a trunk full of clothes.’

And thus onr hero was flung hither, and yoa on the waves of the fair, draw- ing nearer, however with every sub- scription, to the table over which shone the blue stars ot Fanny Clen’s eyes.

But when he got there he was smit- ten with a sudden silence.

Fanny leoked wonderingly up.

‘It’s a fine evening,’ he hazarded.

‘Is it?’ asked Fanny. ‘Why I thought it was snowing.’

‘So it is,’ said our hero, growing very red, and overturning with his elbew a crimson Venetian flask (for which he immediately had to pay a sovereign.) ‘1 mein it isn’t a very jive evening.’

‘Oh! said Fanny.

‘Yes,’ said Mr. Ellershe, feeling ac- cutely that he had made a donkey of himself.

And then be went away, and didn't see fanny Clen again in the whole even- ing—probally because she was the only persou in the whole room that he cared a fig about seeming at all.

But so uokind was fate to love and lovers.

Just as he was edging his way out of the place, ina very dispirite! and deject- ed frame of mind, there was a rush, and flutter and he heard his own name ealled in all the notes of the human gamut,

Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of the Constitutional Remedy.

T. J. B. Harpe, Esq., Brockville, Ont.:— Dear Sin—It is now two years since your “‘Censtitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intre-f duced tome, Ihave waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ” ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy effects seemed to me to be “too good to be true.” I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in many par ticulars. ‘The inward “drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I wouid feel hke smothering and be compelled to sit up in the bed. My health and spirits were seriously atfected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle | found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite clear of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head. A sense of duty to sufferers from that lonth- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send yon. this ga unsolicited, with leave to make w use of it yon ma r Yours truly, ? Ferre seer W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister.
