the train was driving out OF the Boston

Orchard made penclled note On the
margin OF his "IIerald" Good thiCgs
were likely to be too plentiful to be en-
trusted TO memory.

"Hesrd from any OF your folks since

An amused half smile curled the blonde !
moustsche.
"Oh, yes! Ny wife and belong TO the |
old-fashicned school Of sWeethearts. We !
write to one another every day when we |
are separated. Isn't that pretty well done |
for people who will celebrate their silver
wedding day in four yesrs?"
The lift OF the widows nose and chin
were indescribsble.
"Humph!" she said, with volumes in
the monosyllsbled inter action.
Richards sweet nature let him descry
nothing but cause for fun in her be
havlor. She was to him neighborhood
comic almanac, perpetual calendar Of
absurdities. He liked to draw her out
and on.
"For shame, Mrs. Fltchett, 1 hadn't

Freehold admirers say II were to report

Recollecting the story of the despised
bouquet, narrated in full by his wiie's |
able per, he was at no loss IS to the di. /
rection OF the fling, but his open face was !
the picture Of honest inquiry. Here, he !
might be golden opportunity ,
for the mediation he projected, pursuant l
to his wife's suggestion. He would do f
MS friends the Lees good turn, and
1ssl an ugly breach in church and town, /
