should be invited, but Mr.. Damrosch de-

unwise 10 invite him without eX-

Lest summer while Secretary Blaine's
family was at Bar Harbor, before even the
first faint rumor of Miss Blaines engage
ment had been whispered. she and Mr..
Dam-osch were among other guests of
Senator and Mrs. Hale at their residence in
Ellsworth, Me. With that keen perception
which o woman brings to bear upon hearts
which Master Cupid has been shooting at,
Mrs Hale made discovery, and on the
occasion OF the first dinner arranged
that the lovers should be together On
the following day Mr.. Damrosch sought
his hostess and complimenting her
upon the success of the previous eve
ning's entertainment began TO dilate
upon his own enjoyment OF the occasion

Hale laughed heartily, and in response TO
his inquiry as to how she had guessed his

was so very apparent 1t would have been
downright cruelty to arrange the grouping
otherwise. After that il was of course un-
derstood by the lovers that they were TO be
