long Greek knot behind. upon Wrinkles
head.
There. you look lovely in that "
she said. ''The price is one hundred
dollars" "Umphl" calculated Winkie
tearing the sheet from about him and
laying one hundred dollar note upon
the counter.
He then clapped on his hat and
started. stop! Stop!" cried the young
lady shrilly. The chatter OF the car
riage wheels upon the pavement was
all the reply which she received.
..Merciful goodness" exclaimed the
girl almost fainting from consterna-
ton. That was a man. and thought
1t was a woman who had been fighting

clergyman was waiting.
To say that this spirited entrance
created "a sensation. is not putting it
too strongly. When he turned to-
wards the bride. who leaning upon
her fathers arm, and surrounded by
six beautiful girls, was coming up the
aisle, every pair OF eyes in the au-
dience was turned towards him, and
every mouth which was not stuffed
with handkerchief was audibly smil-

Mr.. Deplaine stopped within few
feet OF the bridegroom and stared.
That is not the MANI he calculated.

He seized it fiercely, and shook out
the long hair of which it was COM

from his head. -
Old Deplaine grew purple in the
face. Drunk. by Jove!" he said. and
started himself for policeman. His
departure was the signal for an up
roar. Everybody laughed-nay, they
shouted, and the young men stamped
and whistled. The shocked clergyman
recovered his senses and escorted the
bride and her maidens into the little
sitting-room behind the church.

best friend, and who acted as usher.
