Letter from Marcel Fon-lainc of New Orleans to his friend, Nap1er Rutledge, a senior at the Univers- ity of Virginia. Ash Wednesday, 1801 Dear Nap: -I know it is no secret to you that I have been deeply 'in love with Estelle Lenior for a long time: but because I was pledged to secrecy. I -have not told you that shortly before Christmas I formally asked for her hand. Her parents were good enough to res- pond favorably to my suit. but said that ,the formal announce- ment of the bctroihal must not be made until Easter. However. Andy Breckenridge has b'.:n actively pressing a most u-mvclcome suit in the same quarter. So this morn- ing. after church. I wont straight to their house. and boldly said that I felt the engagement should be made known at once, and that the date of the wedding should be ad- vanced from June to Easter. 1 am happy to tell you that they agreed with me. By the time this letter reaches you. all New Or- leans will be ringing with my good news. And I had the incsiimable joy of seeing my dearest Estelle alone today for nearly an hour and of rcvcaling my love for her more fully than I have ever been able to do herctoiorb. She is still very shy and strange with me, which is natural. and her lovely modesty and sweet reserve make me worship her the more. I believe. too. that the knowledge of gndyk suit has harassed and de-

ressed her. Needless to say. she has never countcnanccd it. much less encouraged it; but still I think it must be the source of her sad- ness. and I am sure that when we are married she will instantly for- get the trouble he has caused her. Then her natural spirits will rc- vive and she will be completely happy herself besides making me the happiest of men. It is hard to think that six weeks must elapse before I can claim her completely. But these will pass. surely though slowly. and then with what joy I shall receive her as my bride!

OI course. my dear Nap. I shall count on you to be one of my groemsmcn. Fortunately your spring vacation should make this service easily possible for you. And I am thankful that since you will be graduating in June, we shall never be separated for long again. but see each other daily in the future. ss we used to in the past.

Ever your friend, Merccl Foniainc

Letter from Madame Adrien Lenior of New Orleans to her cousin. Madame Pierre de G1-uy of St. Martinville '

September 10. 1891 My dear Alzire:

I am writing belatedly, yet gratefully, to thank you for your letter of condolence, composed in a spirit, of such touching sympathy. u soon as you learned of the great loss my husband and I had sustained through the death of his dear mother.

We are beginning to fear that the Fonteine family! is not, after all, the one we should have chosen for an alliance. Clarlsse has with her p3r(nis' full knowledge and concept, engaged herself to a young .:.m named Napier Rutledge. who 1" 5 r.:-:u- the Fan-talnes on Bayou "-t. Jo”,-m. Certainly I should never have beueved that the Fontaines would consld:r Napier Rutledge in the light of a possible parti for their younger daughter. who. is really very pretty and charming; yet they act as if they were de- llilud at the match: and their viewpoint in this regard. astonish- ing as it has been to us. has not begin to give us the pained sur- prlu caused by their behavior con-

the

"I see you are no steadier on your legs than ou were when I last saw you." id a harm voice. Teeter turned quickly. On I weigh-boring rock stood a big bird with I long. big bill on the under part of which wus a bag. "Oh. I didn't see on. Grandpa Pelican. I'm sorry. was so glad to get here that I didn't even look around. You Ipok Just the same. Grandpa Pelican. You don't look a feather older." said Teeter.

"'Dhat may be, but I'm a lot of fish older." retorted Grandpa Peli- can. You know he lives on fish. He is e. fa-mous fisherman. Abruptly he spread his big wings and flew out over the water. Sud- dcnly he. plunged and dis:-ppeaud under water. When he came up he wore a pleased look. There was a reason. There was a fish in that bag under his bill.

Teeter didn't wait for him to return. but flew down on the love- liest sandy beach. How good that' damp sand felt under his small feel! He ran along just to feel it. Behind him he left the dalntlest of footprints. Once long, long ago the footprints of a Man were found where Teeter was now leav- ing his footprints. Can you guess on what island Teeter's winter home was?

a-million-times accident. ll: bit. A masculine thumb. inflicting a painful and gory wound. The ani- mal had strayed Into the area of water about an idle mill-wheel, where it was confined. A helper at the mill. commencing the new week in a fitting manner had gone down into the dimness there to rid the wheel of any eumbrance of sticks or tins or other foreign bodies that. might have collected over the week-end and "sure it was a bit of a stick" ceiight the muskrat bare-handed with aston- ishing result. Then sought First Aid at the hands of the nearest housewives. There was a hasty fcregntherlng of the family about the afflicted one. in this old kit- chen. but presently wcund bathed and bound. there was an outgoing to the slaughter. . e

. It was on the heels of these in- cidents, as we pondered about the course of the day,'that words from the old years came back to mind. We with other children had been disappointed in the weather that summer day. We wanted it clear and lovely for the intended excur- sion, but instead the morning had brought us lowering skies and rain. Our disappointment must have been apparent because an old man, smallish and bright. his white whiskers meeting the fringe of silvery hair beneath his quaint hat. sensing it, studied the clouds on our behalf and commented in a thin voice: "I wouldn't worry about it. A poor beginning can bring a. good ending. I've often seen it so. Did you never see the clouds break away all of a sudden and the sun shine out? And bring a day better than ever before! And have you not heard that 'AlPs well that ends well?" So it proved with us at Alderlea yesterday. In spite of ian unfavorable beginning we came to our rest with an "All": well" in our hearts. 0 O

The best event of today, was of course the delayed peltlng of the mtiskrat. for the children. our gucsts. At dlnnu they offered their impressions of the incident. car- ried out in a barn for their plea- sure and interest. "He had long sharp teeth" granddaughter shud- ered at the lememb .....e." "And it flat tall - to help him swim" Gage offered. 4"And soft, silky brown fur" Jamie smiled "to make someone a warm winter ecatl" And today was "like April" we said. and only pleasant and good to the family at Alderlca.
