Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1890-12-14
in the hope of meeting the beautiful cir,

in the hope of meeting the beautiful Cir
of the photograph. The lady brought
about the meeting at the earliest opportu-
NIFTY giving a dinner and inviting both
her friends. On the following day the
lord called on the lady again, and, nat
urally enough, gave his opinion concern
ing the girl.
'Her face and figure, said he, care
perfect; her manner is charming; her
| mind rare one; but, my dear friend
what Il thin, sharp voice she has, and
what gait! 1t is such pity, such a
pity. She is so very delightful in every
other way
The young beauty lost the English lord
by her voice and walk, and it was Bit
ter disappointment TO her. She did not
know why her destinations were not suf-
ticient to bring forth proposal, and she
never was informed. By being properly
trained while she was developing she
would not have been afflicted by such
physical faults. Her voice was the re-
suit OF being permitted to taia loud at
home, and her bad walk was the OUT
come of tight shoes. Nearly every
American miss shouts when she wishes TO
sag anything, and insists upon wearing
small shoes with very high heels.
The remarks made by the lady at the
luncheon were eagerly heard, and every
pretty girl there resolved not only TO
Eodulate her speaking voice IN the
future, but TO invest at once in pair of
shoes of great length and breadth and
also flatuess Of heel.
I've just learned of strange occur
renee in actual life, and l will give it to
you, OF course, substituting fictitious
names for the real ones. Christopher
Bleyer is a retired New York merchant
OF large means. whose daughters are
married to well-known men and whose
son, Fred, is q popular club
member. Although Christopher has
Leen grandfather ten years
and more. and Is pressing seventy,
yet he still remains an ardent admirer of
the gentler sex, and may often be seen
taking young girls to the thester or
opera, or may be met calling upon some
dashing widow. He has plenty of money
aud spends it freely, and as natural
consequence Is very popular. A few
weeks ago it was remarked by members
of his family that he was haunting a
theater where fascinating actress Is
singing and dancing. More than this
his daughters were informed that he was
sending valuable presents to Miss Blossie
Bremen: that she answered his notes and
was leading him on. To call the old
gentleman into private room, lecture
him for his frIvolity and forbid him to 60
near Blossie, might merely make him
obdurate, and there was no telling what
his Dutch blood might prompt him to do.
There was 81 900, 900 at stake. If old
Chris Bigger should marry the actress it
would give to her dover right no tn
SIS, 900 year. The situation called for
wise and Immediate action and heroic
treatment.
The two daughters we're equal to it.
They went straight to BIossie, laid thef
matter before her in its true light ana
asked her to help them save their
father. Bloss;e listened attentively to
these two fine ladies, who had come to
her as suprliants. A faint smile parted
her pretty lips and her fingers toyed with
the long silken ears of her KING Charles,
spaniel.
Ladies' she sGid at length, or
have no desire TO disturb the serenity of
your family circle. / will dismiss Mr..
Bleyer in few days. Be patient. Old
men are often very persistent. It may
take me week or more.
