Why Ragby IL still Unmarried,


However much nel ve a young man must
possess before he can ask a young lady
to become his wife, it certainly re ,uires
more for him to work himself up to that
pitch where lie can unblushinglv ask
her father for his consent in the matter
One night last summer Bagbv was
drawing near the abode of hi, atfianced
when he saw her father in the yard
What better opportunity could ever
present itself:
With trembling step and giddy
brain he approached to within ten feet
of where the old gentleman was seated
and gasped: Please sir" The per-
son address ed made no response # a
force pump of forty horsepower had
been in Getting blood into his head it
could not have been wor G. He mo,ed
forward about two inches. Please,
sir, H." ! his was as far as he got,
for his tongue seemed to be as thick as
an arctic overshoe. The old gentl, man
did not seem to move muscle. Bagby
moistened his feverish lips with his
tongue, and then began where he lett
Off: "I love yo-" He could
proceed 10 farther. Composing
himself little. with a desperate
effort he began at the beg nning
please, sir. love your daughter and
=" This was about one-third of what
he had to say, but it seemed far less,
there was so much remaining.
1t was now getting quite dark. The
old gentleman's indifference made
Eagby more desperate, and he deter
mined to finish what he had to say,
come life or death. Please, sir, love
your daughter, and I wish to make her
my wife. DO you give your consent2"
and with the question he rushed for
ward and flung himself on his knees
before the old gentleman. Just then
came gust of winl and the old
gentleman, which proved to be scare
crow. pla ed there to frighten the rob-
ins. fell over on Bagby. and tipped him
into the mul. Bagby is still un-
married
