her friend, We're Nugent, into similar
agreeable wedloclS with George Lum-
ley, had invited the two young persons
out TO her summer home at the fish
ponds. This was very magnanimous on
Mrs. Jocks part, for George Lumley, the
artist, was so old and good friend as
to be considered quite her own proper

Jocks plot were in love with each other
before q week of association was over.
The artist had begged her to sit for a
sketch of Penelope, to be used in a pro-
jected painting, and she had sung little
ballads for him, as few could sing bet

was his pastime merely. \
They were seated on q bench, after a
game Of tennis, when George Lumley
began his declaration Of love.
PLEASE don't say any more about it,

She was positively trembling under
the touch of his eager hands, her heart
was beating SO loudly that she thought
he must assuedly hear it, she was

The wind was blowing In strong from

was certain to drive the balloon over
the lake. 1t promised to be a dan

Reynolds, the novice. never faltered.
An immense crowd was present.
When the balloon had reached a
height which appeared to be fully 5000
feet In the air and directly over Find

tunate young man had dropped with
the parachute. He came down slowly.
The aeronaut's young wife shouted
that Reynolds could not swim. and

the lake is 90 feet deep. He threw up
his hands and sank like a stone. The
