A DENSE FOG.

For three whole days dense fog had
lain on the town like yellow charity
blanket Traffic in the streets aud on
lpotcnt chaos. Business men got 20 their
places of business little before it was
time "a close for the day. Society, vent
iiag its spleen upen the climate Of Eng
land in picturesque language, remained
lat home, or ycutured as far as the near
est club and devoted It's days and nights
to bridge Thcater8 closed because even
Idcadheads scolTed at the offer Of seats,
land the only people }5h0 regarded the
fog as an i'll wind, to speak Hibernially,
IWcre pickpoclet- and martyrs Of asthma.
! Il may BE said that on the third day
there was one man, at least, in London
who cared not a jot whether it was wet
on fine, clear OF foggy, and that was
| lLverhard Heswell, the man who had
Stloled the Oxford boat in the last race.
| The reason of this sublime indifference
was not far to seek. HcsweIl was in
love. Ard when a man is in love he does
the most foolish as we'll as the most ir-
remarkable things in his life-among
them proposing and being accepted. For
:hc fifth time during those three re-
grcttabIe DAYS Heswell had found his
way to the steps of Maggie WeybOurne's
house. 1t was in Berkeley square 1t
might, for all he could tell, for the little
that could be seen OF it, be any other
square-or. for the matter of that, it
lnlght not have been n square at all, but
a circle or an obong. He had discovered
ISlB five times but he had not managed
TO pump up sufficient pluck to ring the
bell and march in to bully Miss Wey-
bourne into being his wife From little
things that she had said loudly with her
Icyes during visit to Oxford he had felt
certain that she loved him. But from
little things that she had left unsaid
since he felt equally certain that she
didn't. {.
He had CROPPED his way about for some
minutes when suddenly he stumbled into
a slight figure muffled to her eyes.
II beg he began
The munled figure raised her hands be-
seemingly. Take my purse, take my
bangles, take my rings; but oh, don't,
don't take me!"
With queer feeling that he had
heard the voice before. Heswell peered
into her face. Il don't go in for making
collections either of jewelry or young
women. / haven't the least intention of
MAKING MYSELF ohnovious h,,D,nod
