matrimony to every lady he calls on This
IS more dangerous than merely making q
bonded warehouse of his digester Some
young men are so impulslve that even if the
lady removed her false teeth they would
keep on asking her to fix the day.
Still another danger threatens the festive
New Years Day caller. 1t is customary to
hire vehicles and ride from house to
house giving each lady the mechanical
shake, which IS like working the pump
handle up and down, blending with glass
of wine and some cake, and getting off the
usual chestnut about "Happy New Yearr'
Now, few pints of intoxicants will make
horse travel very fast, particularly if thei in
toxicants are inside of the driver, and acct
dents are almost sure to occur.
] remember that on one New Years Day,
some years ago. in Austin, Tex, two We
hicles loaded to the muzzle, so to speak,
with gentlemen, who were also well
charged, came together with crash, and
for ten minutes there was shower Of the
elite of the city. One of these gilded youths,
in descending from the blue vault above,
struck valuable fruit tree in a gentle
mans front yard, and bruised it severely
with his head
In fact, limb of the tree penetrated the
young man s Skull, out Dy carefully cutting
away the skull the limb of the tree was
saved. Another dude was hurled so high
into the atmosphere that he subsequently
declared he distinctly saw the mortgages on
some Of the three-story buildings. For
twenty minutes after the collision dudes
could be seen fondling their sprained ankles,
and signing for more hands to rub the
places that could not be conveniently
reached.
The vehicles were pretty badly used up,
and the dude who hired one of the teams
from the proprietor of a livery stable be-
trayed great deal of cOyness when urged
to pay for che wrecked vehicle The conse-
quence of this shyness was that the stable
man assaulted the New Years caller, and
people living several blocks distant re-
marked that it sounded like the patter Of q
mules hind legs on the RIBS of hired man.

the beautiful JOY of his features full to the

her close, pressing his cheek to her hair.

the VIDE winding stairway with its lustrous
'pAustrade. 1t was like dream picture. so
stu, so dim; and like dream form. pres
ently, some one-a slender, cloak-curtained
some one-came stepping down the shallow
stairs.
AT the first landing she paused, looked
over ana listened. A white hand clasped
the dark cloak at her throat like a milk-fair
pearl. Two lips, pale pink as the inner sur
race Oh sea shell, were gravely pursed to-
gether with anxious vet subtlv mirthful
curves; and two eyes dusky as the night.
yet Lit as the hall was with a lurking glow
peered open-lidded and eager from face
as warmly pallid as the chaste head carved
on pink cameo.
IL yet lacked thirty minutes of twelve:
and, mindful of the fleeing moments of that
halt-hour of grace, Audrien tipped on deli
cate feet down the second flight of steps,
through the hall to the front door It had
been left unlocked for John; and for fear
that, coming IN her absence, John might
fasten her OUT she slid the key from it's
socket, turned the bolt and stepped forth
into the velvet darkness.
Waiting few moments on the porch till
her wide eyes had learned to penetrate O.
space round her in the gloom, she went eau
tiously yet hastily forward. The stars
were shining hopefully at their PARKWAY
posts-the air was balmy as only a south |
land winter air can be-the scent of wet
grasses and persisted leaves inspiring it's |
stiffness with pungent fragrance.
Audrien had set her hurried foot upon |
the grass-facing churchward, when a sud- |
den sound, football, smote upon her at |
tuned ear. Some one was coming from the |
gate-she could detect the vague blur of his |
moving figure against the dense blackness |
behind him.
In trice she had sped to meet him,
was grasping his muscular arm, was speak
ing in painting, hushed whispers.
