"They ought to stop this side of any drop at all," stoutly affirmed the young member of Mr. Walton's temperance society. "Pre pre haps so," replied Simes. Aunt Stanshy, as she looked down upon the sitting-room table, saw Charlie's curly head bending over pen, ink, and card-board. He had cut the card-board into strips three inches long and two inches wide. "What have you there?"

Who can say but our lord may find deeds to hand or ever he come to Upmeads?" Ralph turned his head as one awaking from a dream, and he said: "When shall to-morrow be, that we may get us gone from Whitwall, we three, and turn our faces toward Upmeads?" Said Richard: "Wilt thou not tarry a day or two, and talk with thine own mother's son and tell him of thine haps?"

I have honoured and loved and pampered her every whim; I have coerced and threatened, all to no avail; indeed, I have gone mad for very effort to please." "Hast thou tried cold indifference and haughtiness? It oft haps that a maid is won by a lofty and arrogant mien." Sir Julian Pomphrey glanced askance at Mistress Penwick, who lay with her face buried upon Janet's ample bosom.

Throughout the 12th no drain of moisture crossed our lips, and not a cloud arose to warrant the expectation of a passing shower; in the shade, if shade it might be called, the thermometer would have registered at least 100 deg., and per- haps considerably more. No change next day.

I have always been an extreme temperance man on principle; but it is useless to push principle to excess, and on this occasion I believe that I finished three-quarters of the bottle. As I ate, I still continued to admire the preparations for defence. "We could stand a siege," I said at length. "Ye es," drawled Northmour; "a very little one, per haps.

Yet again, who shall judge me? for I must tell thee, that were I fairly judged, I should be deemed no ill spear, even when I came not uppermost: for in all these games are haps which no man may foresee."
