The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1906-07-27

an utter stranger to me-"
Yes said Atock, keeping a very
serious face with an almost suDer-
human effort, 'and the tragedy?'
The tragedy is that She has ac-
cepted my invitation! She is coming
tonight, she writes me. and even
ade that she does not mind whether
We go to the theater or not"
Well" said Atock. that is awk-
ward, | must admit. You're in .
beastly fix. I'll tell you, have it,
You did not say you'd be alone. I'll
be there with you. That will settle
the matter, eh, my boy?"
IF it could have been so easily
settled | wouldn't have bothered Won
about it," said Lyon with marked
veXation. Il told you l wrote a very
strong letter, an impassioned love
letter, in fact, and | said over and
over again what delight it would be
to me to see her-I mean my fancee
alone for five minutes, for her Old
cat of an aunt never gives her mo-
ment's peace"

Nothing discriminating. but how
can one have anv faith in woman if
YOU can invite an almost unknown
girl of undoubted social position and
blameless antecadents in the manner
