Frank seemed to think more Of me
than ever, and I often found his card
upon my return from a professional
call. One evening he came and
found me at leisure.
So glad to find you in, doctor, S

lated. 1 am going to- marry the

Not even their home belonged to

make a living, so Mildred had to
take the lead. Kate, three or four,
years younger than she, must be
kept in school, and the three must be
provided, somehow, with food, cloth
ing and shelter. Mildred had been.
fairly educated, but not thoroughly
enough to attempt teaching, SO she
determined to go upon the stage.
She had a good deal of experience in
amateur theatlicals, and had been
warmly praised forhe acting. had
heard of Miss Faye's talent, but
never happened to see her.
At the beginning of this season,
Mildred got her present position. A
very good one, if she was going to
remain upon the stage, which she's
not, you know. She is going to
marry me two weeks from to-day. i
want you and Mrs. Keene to come to
the wedding. Only the family, a
young lady friend of Mildred's and
my dear old partner will be there.
The rooms are too small to have any
one else. We go away at once. Mrs.
Faye and Kate will take posression
of our house, which I am busy fur
nishing. You know I've never had
much ola home, and / feel awfully
happy over the prospect of having
such nice mother and sister and
the sweetest wife in the world. And
now good-by. Don't forget the
.dayp' And the happy fellow went
away as if walking on air.
The appointed hour found myself
and wife knocking at the door of Mrs.
Faye's coy little fat. Frank pre-
sented us to his future mother and
the minister Mr.. Haines, Franks
partner, we knew alread y-and then
stepped to the door of the next room
and handed out the bride, who was
followed by her sister and her friend.
The bride wore a simple white gown
with q veil falling over erface. Miss
Duncan, a pretty blonde, was in
blue. Kate Faye, a slip of q girl.
dark haired and dark eyed wore
pink. The minister soon made the
happy pair one, and after the BRIDES
mother and the young ladies had
kissed and cried over her little

CALCULATIONS.
The new Mrs. Howard was all that
her lovers fond fancy had painted
her. A graceful girl. of medium
height, with soft brown eyes, q love-
~ complexion, a sweet mouth about
which played pretty dimples, and
Wavy brown hair worn in a heavy
coil at the back OF a shapely head,
and falling in tiny rings upon a low,
white brow. When my name was
mentioned she looked up with a deep
blush, which quickly receding left her
very pale. In a low musical voice
whose tones were strangely familiar
to my ear, she thanked us for our
good wishes.
After some simple refreshments the
bride went away to put on her trav-
cling dress. and as they were about
to depart / stood beside her for a
moment. She turned to speak to
her husband, and / saw what answer
