The girl he was going to see was
unquestionably pretty, but he knew
that her mother did not like him.
So, one evening after the engagement,
in the gloom of the gathering shades,
he saw the old lady in the parlor. 1t
was a bold stroke, but unexpectedly
to her he kissed her. After her first
pretended futter of excitement of
course he apologized and said she
looked so exactly like her pretty
daughter in face and figure that his
mistake was natural. In the good
ness of her heart she not only pardon
ed him but is now his next best
friend in that house. This shows that
mothers-in-law, if properly approach
