meGtion of mouse will generally bring
from women, but Il genuine scream of
fear.
"Georgc, please-please don't! 1 am
so sorry was jealous and cross and
wicked. ("
And tho tears began to show them
selves again, so, without moro ado, 1
went TO the bow and took header. 1
found that the water was only about ten
feet deep, but the ring was not to be
seem. On coming up for breath, found
poor Virginia brandishins an oar over
the side of the boat, with 4 view to saw
ing my life if possible. seized it with
much show of distress and waited I'M
til got my breath. Virginia inplored
me to come back into the boat, but
was obdurato. After the third dive re-
turned to the surface, triumphantly
holding out the object of my search. I
swan to the sido of the boat, and tax
placed tho ring on her finger. We made
many VOWS and promises, and it was
not before some minutes had expired
that began to realize that 1 was getting
awfully cold. Clambering back into the
boat with some difficulty, pulled to
the house as quickly as could. AS we
came i'll sight of the lawn Virginia ex-
claimed, "Of course there's that horrid
Mrs. Carruthers waiting for You"
"Horrid, did you say, Virgie?"
ooh! forgot, George. dear. but Mrs.
Carruthcrs is there ut az rate. What
will she think? What sh.il 1 ;o.l her?"
"We'll say caught !. lg.,J and over
balanced myself into tho water -
But do 1 look us ii / had been cry
ins:"
She did Enthusiastically, but before I
had time to answer her we arrived at
the landing stage. Mrs Carruthers
greeted INC with:
why, what OH earth have you been
doing?"
Poor George fell into the water
replied Virginia, with Il winning smile,
land I saved his life with an oar
Didn't l, Gcorge?'
All through dinner that evening Mrs.
Carruthcrs chaiTed INC unmercifully
bore her raiilory with great fortitude,
and aftcrward, when Virginia and l
were sitting on the piazza III front of
the house, we made IL solemn resolution
that we wouldn't break our engagement
again for whole calendar month ut the
