Mrs. Chadwick laughed. The grooms
chin sank into his collar.
wait a moment! She wasn't in
love with him then. We were
camped on that beautiful Virginian
home of yours for nearly month.
You know how courtly he always was
and is. Well, to every rebuff he replied
with a smile and some trifling favor.
She never had to lift finger about
the house. But one thing he was firm
in: she should sit at the same table
during the meals And when Johnston
came laundering down that memorable
day, and your father was shot in the
lungs and fell with dozen saber cuts
besides, you should have seen the
change! He was the prisoner now,
she the jailer. In her own white bed
she had him placed, and for two
months she nursed him. All, that was
the prettiest love affair the world ever
saw"
and why have you not followed
his example?" asked Mrs. Chadwick.
The colonel gaZed thoughtfully at
his old comrades daughter and he
saw pity and unbounded respect in her
eyes. They say that for every heart
there is a mate, but l do not believe
it. Sometimes there are two hearts
that seek the same mate One or the
other must win or lose. You will play
for me tonight"
"As often and as long as you please. f"
-graciously. She was very fond of this
upright old soldier, whom she had
known since babyhood
1t was now that the colonel casually
turned his attention, to the groom. He
observed him. First, his gray eye
brows arched abruptly in surprise, then
sank in puzzlement.
What is it?" inquired Betty, noting
these signs.
Nothing; nothing of Importance,
answered the colonel growing violent
ly red.
1t would not be exaggerating to say
that if the colonel turned red, his one
time orderly grew purple, only this
purple quickly faded into chalky
pallor
Well, perhaps am keeping you,'
remarked the colonel, soberly. 81 shall
hold you to your promise about the
music"
We are to have plenty of music,
There will be famous singer and
fine pianist
You will play that what-d' -ye-call-it
from Schumann like so we'll. shall
want you to play that. / want some
thing in the way of memory to take
back west with me. Good-by, then,
till tonight"
"Good-by. All right, James; home,'
said the girl
James relievedly touched his horses.
The colonel remained standing at the
curb till the victoria Disappeared OF
what he was thinking l don't know;
but he finally muttered James," in an
inquiring way, and made for the club

The local "Push Club" should
take up the matter of a public
library, as suggested by State
Supt Ackerman in his speech
last evening. The Ladies After
noon Club would take an interest
in the affair and assist very
materially provided it could be
assured permanency and proper
care. Such talks as were given
by Supt. Ackerman and President
Campbell of the State University
are a great stimulus toward a
community in an educational way
and bring the ordinary mortal to
a realization of the necessity of
taking an active interest in school
affairs The push club should
take this matter up and make
suggestions to the city authorities.
