means sought to remedy this defect
and save the money required for the
purchase of expensive flowers by
ranging with a gardener to let him
have a bouquet from time to time in
return for his cast-off clothes. 1t thus
happened one day that he received a
bunch of the most beautf full roses,
which he at once sent to his lady love.
In sure anticipation of a friendly well
come he called at the house of the lady
the same evening, and was not a little
surprised at the frosty reception he
met with.
ssYou sent me a note to-day" the
young lady remarked after pause, in
the most frigid tones.
Ga note?" he inquired in blank
establishment.
Certainly, along with a nosegay."
ssTo be sure, l sent you nosegay."
ssAnd there was this note inside; do
you still mean to deny it?"
With these words she handed the
dumfounded swain a scrap of paper,
on which the following words were
written: Don't forget the old trous-

A Young Brides Confession In the WANING
of the Honeymoon.
Charley Wheeler and Lucille SprocA-
EFT had been married nearly three
weeks, and they had just returned
from their wedding trip. They were
supremacy happy in each others love.
and the honeymoon so far had been to
them as one long, blissful dream
Within the next day or two, however,
the bride grew slightly depressed in
spirits, and an uneasy feeling seemed
to take possession of her. The young
husband noticed the change, but at
tributed it to fatigue from the recent
travels But his bride grew more
nervous and took on such a troubled
expression that he said to her:
You have something on your mind,
darling, that is troubling you. Tell
me what it isl
At first she tried to persuade him
that he was mistaken; that nothing
worried her.
You are wrong, Charley, dear" she
would say. Really, am not worry
ing over anything. 1 am just as happy
as 1 could be-"
The day following, however, the
young wife wore such troubled look
that her husband said to her:
Lucille, you must tell me what is
"
any longer. AS your husband 1 have
right to know
Seeing that further concealment was
impossible she broke down and sobbed
bitterly:

sicl&ening sensation swept over the
young husband. Surely there must be
some mistake. She, whom he had
looked upon as the personifcation of
innocent womanhood-deceive him. It
must not be. It would destroy his
happiness and blight his life. And
then, when he caught sudden vision
| of the horrible posi- bilities of the stu
alton, he became sick at heart and al
most fell to the floor. Then, with
great effort, he controlled his feelings.
