The Carpenter's Wooing.
‘Oh, beam of my life, my awl to me !” He cried, his flame addressing —
** If I’adze such a love as yours, Pd ask no other blessing !”
‘¢T am rejoist to hear you speak,”’ The maiden said with langhter—
‘¢ Por though I hammer guileless girl, It’s plane what you are rafter.
Now, if file loye you just a bit, What further will you ax me? Can—will you be content with that,
Or will you farther tax me!
He looked handsaw her words were square, ‘* No rival can displease me—
Yes, oné more favor [ implore, And that is, dear Em, brace me !”

‘I believe it was the wealth which
my futher left me. I was the only son of the richest banker of this city. My father died five years ago, leaving me more than was good for me. Since that time I have been deceived and betrayed by every one, without excep- tion, with whom I have had any con- nection. Some have pretended friend- ship for me ~on account of my money. Oihers have pretended to love me— again for my money; and so it went on. [often mingled, in the garb of a simple workman, with the masses, and thus oneday became acquainted witha charming being, a young gir!, to whom my whole heart soon went into love. I disclosed to her neither iny name nor my position. I longed to be loved for myself alone, and for a time if appear- ed as if I was going to be happy —at last, at last !’
‘The youg girl and [, whom she still regarded as a simple workman, met every afternoon in the Marcus-»platz, where we walked upand down together, passing many happy hours. One day my dear girl appeared with red eyes— she had been weeping—and told me that.we must part, confessing that her life belonged to another! With these words she tore herself from me and dis- appeared in the crowd. Her faithless- ness decided my destiny. Vainly did I rush into the pleasures which so-called ‘good society’ has to offer, but found my lost peace of son] never, never! I then determined to bring my joy- less existence to a close.’
‘Unhappy yoang man,’ said the elder wiping his eyes, from my whole heart I pity you. I must acknowledge that I was more fortunate than you, for I, at least, was by two women—my wife and daughter—tenderly loved.
‘Will you give me your address, good sir, that I may convince niyself of the truth of your story. It is not exactly mistrust, but I must see to believe. To-morrow I will arrange my affairs as | have already told you. You will remain at this inn to-night, and in the morning early I will return. Give me your word of honor that you will not leave this house until I come back, and that you will not in the meantime speak toany one of waiat has taken place between us.’
‘You have my word! Go to my dwelling, to my daughter, and you will find that I have told you but the simple truth. My name is Wilhelm Salms. Here is my address.’
'With these words he handed the young man a paper, giving the address of his dwelling. It lay inasuburb inhabited by the poorer classes, at some distance from the city proper.
‘And my name is Carl Teodor,’ here- upon said the young man. “Take this bank note; it will serve you until my return.’ ;
‘ Carl tang for the waiter, had the landlord called, commended the old man to his care on suitable terms and left the house. :

Hardly had the morning broke when Carl found himself on the way to the suburb where lived the daughter of the old man with whom he had become acquainted under such peculiar circum- stances. It was a poor place. The young man knocked, opened the door, and involuntarily stepped back.
The young girl whose inconstancy had made his life a burden unbearable steod before him.
She had grown pale—very pale; but he knew her at the first glance; it was Bertha, whom he had once hoped to call his own.
At his appearance the young gir! sprang toward him, overcome with «oy, holding out her little hand. The young, man waved her back, exclaiming :
‘You did not expect to see me !’
The poor girl sank into a seat, and covered her pale, beautiful face with her hands,
‘Are you Wilhelm Salms’ daughter ?’ asked the young man coldly, after a pause,

‘And who and where is that other to whom, as you told me at parting, your life belonged ?’ ' ‘That other is my father,’ answered the young girl, looking up to the young

With lightning quickness the truth dawned upon him ; the scales fell from his eyes.
Speechlessly he rushed to Bertha, took her in his arms and pressed her to his breast. :
‘Come to vour father,’ he faltered.
‘My father! Oh, heaven ! I forgot Where is he? He has been out all night. I have watehed in tears the|

long night through.’
‘Your father is saved. He is with 'me:’ was Carl’s answer as he hurried ‘the young girl out and through the streets to the arms of her father.
