Monday morning by appearing i'll the

conspicuous and disporting itself gayly
over his features, that he, having tired

had entered on life of "doubleness. !"

which greeted this sudden breaking of
the news was soon dispelled by Sans

his bride to his home, and on Monday
pursued his usual vocation as though
nothing ''serious" had happened. AL
though the surprise was complete, Sans
many friends, with whom we join, wish
him and his bride life of unallOyed
prosperity and peace.
