"I was merely thinking, Mac, wha tale my civilian overcoat could unfo Last winter, while we were stationed the arsenal in Washington, every fell in the class fell desperately in love w some girl or other, and ever since o return they are forever running up short leave.; my overcoat, being co paratively new, is taken on every tri Jack Villiers is probably doing t grand with it there at this very m ment." 1 "Will, why don't you fall in love ?" "In love! why, I am alwayo in lov Every young lady I meet seems meet than the last. That's the trouble; o cannot concentrate under those eircu stances; and I am afraid if I let mys go, it may be at the wrong time." "To -morrow will be Sunday," repli Macnaughten, "and Fielding, the a miralti aid, is going to take a little pa ty over to the Soldier'a Home. W not you come down and make it please for the young lady? He wants you come because he thinks you are such recluse that you will not interfere wi his own little scheme. The young lad is going to stay only a month ju your limit for a flirtation; you can wor upto almost any limit without danger. "Who is she, Mac ?" "Miss Arden, from Detroit • she down at the Hygeia with Mrs. 'Warren the wife of a captain of the Second Cav airy, now in the field with Geners 'Ail right; I'll go." They sat a while longer, chatting an smoking, looking out the while throug the casement embrasure upon the mos and He further ehore, and then parted. Will Cowan was a young man of thoughtful turn of mind, studione, bu fond of enjoyment, too; rather reserve in manner before strangers, yet ope and generous when he felt at home with a hearty laugh that was all hi own, clear brown eyes that reflected to depth and tenderness of heart, and well -shaped mouth and chin, indieatin his etrength of character. The following afternoon saw the party on its way to the Soldiers' Home on the steam launch of the flagship. The launch was moored near the mouth of Hampton Creek, and the party started along on foot, Mrs. Warren and Field- ing leading,Miss Arden and Macnaughti en close behind them, while Cowan, holding the pretty little daughter of Mre. Warren by the hand, dawdled along in the rear, Admiring 'the flowers and attempting to prevent little Isabel from cutting off their tall beadle with the stick he had permitted her to carry. "Why don't you go with Cousin Frances ?" said the child, quickly per- ceiving whither his glances were direct- ed. "'Beceuse I don't want to. I'd rather talk to you." He was holding back from diffidence, yet be was studying the slim figure ahead. "She is not beautiful," he said to him- self, "and yet her eyes are a wonderful bl-ue; that simple braid -of blonde hair hanging from her shapely head is rather fascinating, and her hand is the prettiest I have ever seen. Is she frivolous, or merely airy fairy ?" During all the afternoon Cowan held himself aloof, and when the party re- turned to the hotel he felt that he had done much to make it pleasant for the fair visitor. In the evening he milled and found her sitting on the upper piazza, a closed book in her hand, gazing upon the waters. "A penny for your thoughte," he said. Were they with the moon? won- dering if she be indeed "Pale for vrearinese Of climbing heaven and gazing on the earth,— Wandering companionless Among the stars." "No. I want to s.sk you a question. Listen." Then 'he recited tenderly and sweetly the lines beginning, - "1 arise from dreams of thee In the first sweet sleep of night, When the winds are breathing low, And the stars are shining bright," to the end. " this said by a man or by a we - male ? That is what I want you to tell me," she added. "By a man, of course," he mid, quietly. He was very thoughtful, for this seemingly trifling young maiden of nineteen summon had revealed herself in a new light; she had shown in reciting these lines a depth of feeling that he had not suspected. The office -boy approached and handed her a card, and Lieutenant Fielding followed close upon it. The conversa- tion took a more formal turn,and Cowan moon said good -night., The young people saw much of each other, and soon became great friends. One bright starlight evening, as Cowan and Miss Arden sitting on the piazza, Fielding approached and said,— " It is such a lovely evening, Miss Arden, I thought we might perivade Mrs. Warren to take a stroll with us on the parapet of the fort,—what do you think!" "That will be lovely, don't you think, Mr. Cowan! Will you not ask her, please, Mr. Fielding? She is sit- ting there in the hall," Then confi- dentially to Cowan,intich to his surprise, she whispered, "1 juat love to hate that man i" The party soon started, Cowan and Miss Arden on in front, for Cowan's courage rose wonderfully with that last remark of hers. Slowly they sauntered along, over the pattern bridge, gazing in admiration upon the reflected stars in the moat, talking in low tones, as pee, ple do whose thoughts are influenced by a deeper current than that which is moving calmly over the surface, when suddenly the call of the sentinel," Who comes there ?" with the rattle of his gun as he brought it down, roamed them from their revery; but J the challenge was repeated, and the point of the bay- onet came nearer, much to the discom- fiture of the young lady, who was be- ginning to be frightened, before Cowan could gather, himself sufficiently to Answer. 11," his eir ork on t$ Id. at ow ith ur on m - p. he o - e. er ne in - e If ed d- ill r- nt to a th at 17 is 1 a They pas and up the along the p sally -port meg (parte denly seid, "Can we ing to the 1 ing the on Down they way so as h dark watets against the "See ho Norfolk ; m Then the getting all a long ago p serving the ahead.

In a week, however, he could endure the monotony of her absence no longer, so he threw attde all false pride, and joined them a the Prospect House at _ Blue Mountai Lake. There was lenty of amusement,— bowling, rowi4 on the lake, playing tennis, walkin dancing of an evening, or riding. On day after breakfast they arranged to pl4y tennis, but when they met on the ten is court near the hotel, Miss Arden sa 4,— " Let us walk over to Crystal Lake ; it is only half 4i hour away, and they say it is so be t tiful ; we can play ten- nis afterward.' As they pas ed the front piazza, Mrs. Arden called at,— , " Will you iO back by luncheon ?" "Oh, yes," aid Cowan; "but don't wait for ue," 1o added, knowing well the uncertain' of all things when young ladies a 6 concerned. So on they _went, along t e winding path to the Crystal Lake.j How calmly it lay there, nestled amon the hills, the water clear as crystal! hey sat down in a row- boat hauled u there close to the beach, "Do you se how clear it is ?" said Miss Arden, enthusiastically. "Look at the pebbles and loge away down be- low." "Vee, it is quite a romantic spot," laid he, very Melly looking into the depths of her blue eyes. He was fall- ing in love, b t She was eluding him of late, and so he was werried. This happy being ¶B a little too much like a butterfly for his serious nature. "But would I have her serious ?" he thought. "What would a serious but- terfly he like? Would it not be better to let the but illy nature develop to its utmost perfect on ?" Suddenly sh elapped her hands and cried out,— . "Let's walk around it !" Cowan said " ery well," but, always feeling his resp nsibility, he instinctive- ly looked up th lake and maw that it was rnarshy at the far end, and might be miles long; hen, too, the 'shore on the left was 1 vertical bluff, and he knew at once Itat they would have to walk back some distance from the lake, and might lose their way. But he was in the habit of agreeing with ladies on all small matter Asserting himself only on important p4inte, but then very de- cidedly. "1 don't thinc any one at the hotel has been aroun it," the added; "we'll be the first." Cowan lookedi at his watch; it was half -past nine. They followed, at first, a feot-path tha led along the margin of the lake a s Mt - distance, and then , entered the br eh ; but soon finding this very thic 1 and • difficult to get through, Cewan suggested that perhaps it would be mor open on the ridge, so they climbed up there. But it was no improvement, o ly the primeval forest, dead trees piled one upon another, often to a height of s x feet or more, some newly fallen, some decayed into a slightly coherent dust, covered with moss. They clambered over them and forced their way through the bushes, Cowan ahead,t9 search out the easiest way, Mies Arde (who was a good walk- er) following, ith her white jacket wrapped up oar fully in the skirts of her tennis -gown to preserve its purity. After a hard cli h they descended to the upper end o the lake, 'where the shore was low a d flat, and drawn over with logs. There they sat down to rest on a log projec ing into the lake, and looked down on,e more on the mirrored surface. , _ "It is now alf-past eleven," said Cowan after a tine; " we can either re- turn the way w came and get back in time for lunches) tn. we can go around, in which case we may be a litte late, be- cause I think we will find it a little farther that "Why, we'll o around, of course." The walk was easy for a while, so they truelged ha pily along. Suddenly Miss Arlen rem rked,— - We are goin the wrong way; the sun was behind be a little while ago and now it is ahead." " True ; but I think a ravine makes in here, and we wil turn again when we reach the head o it. However, sit down here on this des tree, and I will run back to see if th lake is still there; but do not move *in this spot, little He soon retur d, looking just a shade serious. "The lake is net there," he said. "Are we lost ? she whispered, turn- ing pale. What is the matter with you ?" said he, a little • severely, but looking earnestly on the meet fee°. His man- ner gave her coefidence at once. He sat down beside her; the tree, which was" completely decayed, gave way and they rolled over on the ground, both laughing heartily as they sprang up again. "What shall We do ?" she inquired. "Sail by the sun," was the answer; "northeast must be our direction, ap- proximately." They walked on, laughing and joking, Cowan doing his best to entertain Miss Arden with stories, to make her forget the situation. Semetimes he would go on far ahead to pick out the way; then he would return and walk by her side. Up hill and down over great heaps of fallen trees, through dense underwoode over rooky places and up steep slopes,— no footpath anywhere, only the Aidron- desk forest. "Don't you thi4 we had better cut marks on the tree' ?" asked Miss Arden. "What for ?" said he, with mock sur- prise, knowing 11 her meaning, but also aware of the fact (this he kept en- tirely to himself, however,) that in his tennis clothes h carried no pocket- knife. oea. ionally they sat down to rest.
