CHAPTER XII.

The more he thought upon this the
more fixed became his determination to
go with Mark. BY the time he reached
the mission rooms he was in fever OF
anxiety lest anything might happen TO

Mark at first was strenuously against
the suggestion. He had had such high
homes for Hugh. 1t seemed to him a
GOOD thing ana a fitting thing for a
dreamy. disappointed man like himself

men of Hugh's calibre in the thick OF

| Z.
For some months past there has been
a phenomenal hegira of bridal couples
! from all parts OF the country toward
| Wilson. \. c., and every one who con-
templated anything in the connubial
| line has seemed determined to reach
Wilson for that purpose.
Recently the cause of this great rush
! for Wilson has been discovered. The
Mirror published there has two edi-
tors, one a plain editor, but the other a
literary editor. This latter gentleman,
as a word painter, grainer and shell
lacker. when feeling first rate, can
command a larger font of display type
and put on more frills and clothe a
plain statement in more pink tarlatan
and hemstitched and hand embrOider-
ed lingerie and advertisement and flu

than'any man south of Mason and Dix
on's justly celebrated line.
Here is a little study in oils dashed
off a few weeks ago and done easily be-
tween breakfast and the II o'clock
whistle. Is it to be wondered at that
special rates are being made over all
roads leading to Wilson. or that the
Wilson hotel has been Thrown into
one vast bridal chamber?
"On Wednesday at i o'clock our
highly esteemed friend, Calvin Brown

this place, led to the altar the popular

mingling with heartbeats our young
friends are now floating around those
blessed islands of rapture that dot the
love rippled ocean Of conjugal endear-

a sweeter and holier and purer destiny

blooming flowers of sweetest content

step in this direction is to stop all
arguments as to the past and look
only to the future. There is much
to be done and diplomacy is needed,
if the Republicans are to get their
party in condition and a position

abusing each other, gentlemen, and
