ON A BIKE BUILT FOR TWO.
And the Startling News Was Not known
Until Afterward.

a cyClist whom we Will call Baxter
was strolling along the avenue when he
noticed pretty girl in neat cycling
costume standing by tandem. She had
her back turned TO him, but he saw she
wore a trim costume, had neat ankle
and nicely arranged lot of hair. Bax-
ter is very particular about a girls
hair. This girl looked so attractive that
he paused. There was something pa
thetic in her attitude, he thought. Was
she waiting for a cavalier 10 join her
on the tandem? A wild idea entered
Baxter's head. He would do a daring
thing. He walked up 70 the girl. She
turned a frank, merry face on MIN as
he approached.
Pardon me-" he aughingly said,
"but are you looking for an accompa-
nist?' and he pointed to the tandem.
WELL" she sndhngly answered.
"now that you mention it, guess /
am"
a moment later they were whirling
up the street When it began to grow
dark, they turned back.

it ism t my tandem"
mot your tandem?" shouted Baxter
Whose is it, then?"
why" said the girl, "I thought it
was yours.
Heavens, not" groaned Baxter.
But yeu acted as if it was yours, :"
said the girl.
"What shall we do?'' moaned the
girl.
Take it back" said Baxter.
So they rode back in silence, and
when they were about block away the
girl said:
Il guess I'll stop here"
Leaving the tandem as near TO the
place where he saw it as he could he
scuttled away In the darkness. Cycling
