with which a man can be afflicted.
His hopes Of an early marriage have
been rudely shattered by woman who
takes an affair OF the heart less seriously

has had experience with the nuptal knot.
The woman was known TO Hartwell as

For a joke she said she would, and he
went home one of the happiest OF men.
The next day. on meeting her again. he
took her TO buy the wedding ring
The woman was accompanied by a COM
panion In all her meetings with Hartweil
and for her he bought a hve stone opal
ring.
Then he asked them TO accompany him
TO the city hall while he procured the
license. They did so. but refused to go
In with him. The Foster woman told
him that tho woman never went with
the man when the license was obtained,
and that they would wait for him.

to friend she said You see. 1 had

When the prospective bridegroom was
out OF sight the two women made their
escape.
