they are for meY That lovely little tea,
gown in pink wolfe, with enerustations
and collar OF cream lace, and-oh, not
that sweet little white serge frock, all
embroidered with daisies, and the white
silk blouse to wear inside the jacket, and
the silver belt, and"
"Ah, you like the frock? Well,
thought it would 40 tery well for little
girl-bride OH summers day--a little
girl who is ecing or a voyage, and to
whom grind bridal dress would only
be a folly. 1t is not as pretty as another
white dress | saw her weas at Caen."
ooh, Cadet Rousellei"
'"But the hat, that big leghorn one in
which you looked so charming, Bebe-I
have ordered a woman in Bond street to
get me the very double of it; but as it is
for wedding, Miss Gray-who is rather
mule for obstinacy, will have it that
the roses are all to be white also"
Cadet Rouselle!"
"Aiso there is to be little white
parasol, like the one you carried at the
Caen fetes, only in chiffon and silk, to
match the blouse; and-wait one mo-
ment. mademoiselle-I want our wedding
day to be on Monday week. because on
that evening there is to be a river fete at
Richmond, with a procession of illumi-
mated boats, gondolas dressed in flowers,
and colored lanterns, Just like that one
at Caen. So we shall 60 TO look at it all
of course, after we have dined en- table
d'hote, if you like, so as TO complete the
resemblance to that ever memorable day,
though I'm afraid the cirque and"
Cadet Rouselle-Cadet Rouselle, you
are more than bon enfant! You are an
angel of goodness! Oh, how happy you
make me! And there viii be one great
difference between this and the fete at
Caen-there will be no miserable ending,
no Mere Margot! When l am your wife,
no one can say that it is not convenable
for you to take care of mel"
GARNER smiled down into the shining
eyes and wistful face.
81 hope not, little one. Anyhow mean
to do it to the best of my power. There
shall be no miserable ending to your mar
riage fete, if l can help it."
1t was very quiet little wedding, at
quiet church in Kensington, with the ex-
cellent Miss Gray as sole bridesmaid and
Carriers Texan friend as best man. To
these two the happy couple said farewell
at the church door-a fearful one on the
part of Miss Gray, to whom the little
bride chung with passionate words of
thanks-and drove off to the hotel where
GARNER had been staying and where they
sat down to a very merry, very uncon-
ventional, and very recherche little lunch
con, at a table covered with roses, and
with champagne and all manner of nice
things, so that Bebe declared it was ever
so much better than any table d'hote
dinner she had ever seen, and thought it
would be sinfully extravagant ever to
have another.
After that they drove to Victoria,
meaning to go to Richmond from there
because-wonderful to relate, and it real
| ly did seem Il wonderful coincidence
letter, which Bebe had persuaded Gar
nier to write to the lost property office
regarding her much regretted handbag,
had been answered that very morning by
telegram, saying:
Handbag here, waiting owner. Please
call at p. m. with lady to identify"
well, Pm sure l never expected to
hear of it again" said Bebe gaily, as they
made their way together across the plat
form towards the office of which they
were in search 'It is lucky. Why
why-oh, it can't be guard"
But her husband did not hear her.
Some one had caught his elbow, and, as
GARNER jerked it free, he saw another
person, an elderly gentleman, hurrying
towards them, his face infamed with
rage, as he exclaimed
"You impudent scoundrel So I've
caught you at last-you and your vic
tim tool"
