Walter Aylette. For the first time in her
gay, happy. 10 years she looked seriously
upon love. Yet she was surprised to find
that she was not happy. She confessed
to Martha that she was uneasy.
There was no announcement of the en-
gagement. Two days after she accepted
Aylette by mail there came from him
another letter; so different that Molly's
uneasiness grew great. 1t was a nice
letter, overnowing with rejoicing-but
there was something missing. Molly
felt that her surrender, her gift of her
sedf to the man who had seemed to de-
spair, was not received in quite the man
ner she expected it. 1t seemed to her
that the man was gIoating rather than
exalted by his victory.
All that night she was uneasy She
felt that she had made mistake, and
she read and reread the first three let
tiers before she fell asleep. happy and
treasured. The thought came to her that
perhaps she loved the letters and not
the man, but she did not believe that art
could infuse such feeling into written
words.
The next morning Molly came down to
breakfast late. She looked little wan
and pale, little anxious. 1t was the day
that Aylette was to return to Baltimore;
the day on which for the first time Molly
was to surrender to the kisses of her

Stolen Love-Letters That Broke
One Engagement and
Made Another.
THE HEROINE A BALTIMORE SOCIETY BELLE
Her Lover Appropriated Tender Missives of
a Friend to His Ultimate Sorrow-Dis-
closure Brings Happiness to Two.

| the boarding house that night, Aylette
confessed to Phillips that he did not
particularly love Miss Entrekin, but
that she was rich and that he was go
ing to win her. Disguised, sickened
| by the attitude of his friend, which
came as rude awakening from the
dreams that he himself had been
dreaming, Phillips turned to go to his
room. There, with the vision of the
bright-eyed, fair-haired girl before him,
he resolved never again to go near her,
realizing, as he thought, the impossi-
bility of ever winning the love of Mar
tina Baker. He held to his determine
ton. Two or three times the girl in
quired of Aylette why he never brought
Mr.. Phillips with him to call, and she
admitted to Miss Entrekin that she
had been interested in the reserved,
handsome young fellow. Once she
| frankly asked Aylette to bring Phil
| lipps to call. but the message was never
delivered, and Aylette lied about it to
her, telling her Phillips preferred not
to come, and the girl, surprised and
hurt, never referred to him again.
Phillips became more silent than ever
and worked harder, refusing to join in
any of the little pleasures of the others
in the boarding house. Once one of
the girls in the house teasingly asked
him if he was in love, and he flushed
and left the room.
Aylette, to all appearances, was
making no better progress in his eff
forts to win the love of Miss Entrekin,
and he departed for Richmond for a
fortnight's vacation without receiving
one sign of encouragement.
Beginnisg of Love Letters.
Then, suddenly, there began to come
to Molly Entrekin, day after day. let
tiers overfowing with tenderness, love,
and passion; love letters such as swept
the hearts of her grandmothers by
, storm-fowery, imaginative, beautiful
love letters, such as girls read and re-
read in the privacy of their own rooms
and grandmothers kiss when they find
them hidden in the bottoms of old
trunks. The letters were from Walter
Aylette. and they revealed to Molly
Entrekin depth of feeling, of power
and passion, of love and tenderness
and yearning that she had never sus-
pected existed in the man. She was
astonished.
Three of the letters. which have been
made semi-public by the events that
followed, have been circulated among

up my courage and dare all by telling
you. I am trembling and quaking now
at the thought of what you would
think if you read this. 1 cannot help
it; l must write. l dare not whisper
my love to you. 1t were proclamation to
speak of it to others
Goodnight, beloved l have dared
to say it even to myself"
Miss Molly Relents.
When Mollie Entrekin got that letter
she sat down in the middle of the floor
and read it. Then she said: We'll. of
all things" Then she read it again.
Then she said: 81 never heard Of such
a thing" Then she reread it. and. clasp
ing her arms around her knees, sat on
the floor and studied
81 don't know why he wrote me such
a letter." she said to herself eff the fool
man is in love with me. why don't he
tell me so? Don't dare to come near
me. don't he? I've noticed that he's
been hanging around here two or three
nights week.
Finally she got up and said: ANY
how, I'll write him nice letter that will
cure him" And she wrote. 1t was
kind, sisterly letter, and the burden of it
was: "Impossible; don't love you"
But there was no doubt that the letter
had started Molly Entrekin to thinking.
She read it over and over 1t partly i'm
pressed, partly puzzled her. 1t wasn't
bit like Aylette.
Three days later there came another
astonishing missive.
That time Molly read seriously.
Again the tone of the letter puzzled her.
and she wondered if he had not received
herrejection before writing, and thought
it strange that he did not mention it.
Men in love are such fools,' said
Molly, and, taking the two letters, she
went over to see her dearest chum. Mar
tina. and consult with her about it. MAJ
tina read the letters, and then she said:
Molly. if man ever wrote to me that
way I'd love him just in spite of myself. -
I'm afraid I'm beginning to like
him." said Molly. Maybe 1 misjudged
him before" Then she wrote him a
kinder. sweeter reply, telling him that
she hardly knew her own heart-and to
! come to her the moment he returned
| from Richmond.
The following day there came another
letter. tenderer, more exalted. higher in
tone than the other. breathing the de-
spair of an unloved lover exalted by the
purity of his love.
And Molly was conquered. 81 never
did like the man." she said to Martha
81 am afraid l lost the beauty of his
character through my blindness. I'm
not sure love him now, but I'm glad
these letters have opened my eyes and
shown me the depth of his love. Any
girl can learn to love man who loves
her that way"
Engaged But Not Happy.
So that night Molly Entrekin, in he1
own boudoir. sat down and wrote hel
! first love letter, and became engaged t.
