for time in the darkness anu
then changes his mind. or course
this is not the real kind of love, nut
that spurious passion which mistakes
itself
When young man wants to marry
a woman old enough to be his grand
mother Cupid regards the affair as
mere Joke and feels justified In inter
fering to stop the match. FRANK

years old, but he got romantic
streak and decided that he wanted 10
marry Mrs. Hasenback, a widow OF
SO.
At least that is what the widow
thought She put on her wedding
gown and repaired to st. Paufs Cath
Ollie church, where the ceremony was
TO be performed. The wedding guests
were there and the bride was smiling
happily.
But the smile changed from natural
ness into a set, mechanical grin. The
widow, respondent In her wedding
fnery, plainly showed signs of uneasl
ness.
DO you think he is coming?" ques
toned her friends. She was game.
Certainly" she answered serenely
Frank would not dlsappoint me H'
il tho soul of honor and | am SURE
thnt he loves me"
But at least he could have sent yo'
word IL he was going to be delayed,
insisted her friends, posing in tn
light OF Jobs comforters.
The widow, however, smiled on.
She was in love and love Is eve
ready to find excuses. She only grey
indignant when her friends exchange
meaning smiles and openly espresso
their somewhat scornful pity
But the bridegroom came not. Mes
sengers were dispatched to seek hin
but they could not find him, The
limited that his heart had failed hii

Hagenback was full of confidence. Sh
could not believe that Frank woul
fit her at the last moment, and sh
waited.
At last the wedding had to be pt
off sine die, for lack of bridegroom
but the aged bride expressed her b
lief that Frank was kidnapped and hi
