ANNE'S
INFATUATION

ilalluti, 1*11
When my friend A tin** Hughe* died
?be left her daughter Auue lu my c?r?.
Agnes. tbouch w h?d Ik?h intimate
friends, na* older than I. and she was
still young nt her demise This brought
nio midway betweeu her nod her
daughter When I its*ume?l the <an? of
Anne sue was sixteen years old md 1
?was twentj sit. It was very pieasant
for both of ?? ihr.t ?p could I>e com
panionable.
Anne was a g<wd girl. and 1 had do
trouble with her whatever for two
years; then, she holm: of a marriage
able nee. 1 began lo > rry. A gentle
man. Frederick Carrington. nearly dou
lile her age? be was thirty two t>egan
to pay her attention After all. thirty
two still voting I'or a man. and far- J
rington was young for his age On this
account I opposed hitn for Anne, be
cause I preferred to see her marry
some dignified man of prominence .
either In bu-luess. in profession or in
politic*.
1 didn't know whether Anne liked
Carrington well enough to marry htm
or not She usually confided all ber at - j
fairs to me but this one she kept to
herse'f It was this reticen.-e in the
matter that led me to believe she had
given him her heart The only way 1 j
conW hope to circumvent the man was
to keep him away from Anne and I
must efTe- t this without seeming to do
so. f.-r if the two pot it in'o their head*
th?>t 1 was i.pi>o?ir.g them their attrac- I
tion for e.u h other would be enhanced
by n>> oi iMsition
IMuing the winter I resolved to give
a h ::<e t .;irt> a1 m> -onutry place. I j
invited ? i ' ur I'niwfotd. n young man
of whom 1 approved f?>r Anne, and left
out Fred Omiugton. of whom 1 did not
approve fi f Iter When Anne locked
over the li<t ..f i nest* *he asked:
-Whom at* v.'U to, i c to invite for ;
yourself, anntie."
? j v,.p i.M old maids don t
need it,* an> ? n.- fol themselves
I didn't Un w whether Anne had
anything in d<< nith It or not. but:
wlillc nt\ Litest. wen- assembling
who should ? riw up from the station
?and wth two mink* ' nt '"red <"ar

"1 adroit that Anne has assisted me.

on her own account, but In your |

"1 do not doubt It I confess that I

"Happily >-he rnd you coincide on the
man. Wilbur Crawford."
"Wilbur t'rawford"
"Yes. I think he and Anne will be
encm-ed before we break up."
"Well, upon my word! And what at*

"I have a bo|?e that I shall be en

"To Anne? She can't marry too

"Not to Anne: to you "
