WHAT HE TOLD HER.
1t Was Most Important But Not Ex-
nctly What She Had
Expected.

He had written that he had some-
thing most important, something he
had been waiting for long time to
say. She knew what it was. o, it
must be that. She waited, with beat
ing heart, to hear his footsteps on
the steps outside, says the Chicago
Tribune.
She had sent the family out to call
on the neighbors and put on the gown
which he liked best.
At last. There was a ring at the
doorbell. He had come. She took one
last glance into the mirror to see
that her front hair was on straight, =,
and then resumed her business of
waiting. He entered hurriedly and
looked embarrassed.
''I-I-have come to say something"
he began, slowly.
"Have you?" she said. assuming the
surprised look which she had select
ed as the best out of As different kinds
of surprised expressions which she
had practiced over before the mirror.
Dear me, what is it you want to talk
about"
Il want to tell you something." he
said.
"Well," she said. while she re-
strained herself from throwing both
arms around his neck and yelling
eyes" so it could be heard two blocks
away, tell me-"

tween his teeth. land I can't call on

CT. AUGUSTINE en- fete presents the
y prettiest picture imaginable, and
one need not be surprised to meet ro-
nance at any turn of its quaint old
streets. And the cathedral on the
plaza, with its ancient Spanish belfry,
would seem to be one of the most like
ly places in the city for story, or, at
least, for the beginning of one. So
must have thought the fate that
watches over our mundane affairs when
on Easter Sunday Of last year the bells
began to ring out their joyous invita-
ton to the world.
As the orderly crowds thronged into
church two young men crossed the
plaza and entered. One was in naval
Uniform; the other dressed as a tour
If from long sea service. They seemed
to avoid attention, and took seats be-
hlnd pillar, behind which they could
watch the entrance without themselves
being seen.
The services were half over when a
lady and gentleman came in at the
great door and passed down the aisle
towards the altar. The gentleman was
stout and middle-aged, the lady in the
bloom of 20 years. The man seemed
IN the height of good humor; the
woman was evidently in serious trou-
Bile.
As they passed, looking neither to
the right nor to the left, one of the
young men touched the other on the
arm, with glance at the pair. He
was answered by nod, and presently
ooth left the church, slipping out by
d slde door. In a narrow street run
mng at right angles to the plaza they
nailed cab, into which he of the uni
form stepped, drew the door to and sat
down to wait.
Inc other, sauntering over to the
pidAa' TOOK his station near group of
PAINS, IN the shade of which two or
'hfee carriages were grouped. And
soon the old bells doomed, and the peo-
PIE streamed out. Among them were
