The SIckest Bridal Affair that He Ever
Saw.

Just before Eckson and his wife started
on their bridal tour Eckson said: We
want to show people that all newly-married
people are not silly"
" Yes, we do, Henry
Now, when we get on the train let us
not pay any attention to each other.
"All right"
Wen lean apart from each other and
act as if we have been married for years,
won't WEI"
YES. Oh, III tell you what would be
the funniest idea in the world, Henry.
We viii take different seats, and after
while Well get acquainted. Won't that be
nice?"
First-class, splendid"
When they boarded the train they took
opposite seats Henry took up a news
paper and Molle looked at the wavering
landscape. After q while Henry looked up
and saw the conductor sitting with Mollie.

with him." the bridegroom unused. Be-
lieve I'll 90 forward and take a smoke"
His cigar must have been unsatisfactory,
for he soon threw it away and resumed his
seat opposite his wife. The conductor was
telling an amusing story and Mollie was
laughing gleefully. She did not even look
at her husband.
"This is playing it little too fine"
Henry mused - | like to see good acting,
but she acts little too we'll"
The train stopped at the station, and the
conductor got up and went out, but re-
turned Immediately, and again sat down
by Mollie. Just then a young woman
came along and asked Henry if she could
share his seat. He gladly consented mus
ing that he could play even with his wife.
4 few moments later while he was talking,
he saw, with a sweetened thrill of revenge
that his wife was looking at him. AT the
next station the woman got off the train,
and when the conductor went out Henry
sat down BY Mollie.
