Maisie's
Bridegroom
Copyright, by w. G. Chapman.)
By HILTON GEORGES

Maisie lay back on her cushions and
looked thoughtfully at the palm
stretching upward, although her mind
was not on it, but occupied with some
thing much more important, her mar
riage. She was to be married the fol.
seen, a rather unusual occurrence. and
the more Maisie thought about it the
less she liked it.
The girl was only seventeen, and
when her father had begged her to
consent to the marriage with Gordon
Phillips she had yielded, although at
the time, six months before, she had
not been pleased with the idea Her
father was a selfish man; even she,
who was a model of filial devotion,
had to admit that, and now, as she
faced the future, she realized how
wrong it had been for him to ask and
she to give the promise.
She remembered it all so distinctly.
She and her father had been on one
of their many journeys. A less sus-
picious girl might have questioned
these hurried wanderings, but Maisie
asked no questions, and in fact moth
ing lay back of them except her ia
theirs restless spirit and sometimes his
inability to pay his debts. One night
he had come to her much excited and
told her that a man had seen her, not
once, but many times, and had fol-
lowed them so as to see more of her.
He has fallen in love with you and
wants to marry you,' he had contin.
ued, and the girl had heard him with
out single flush. When she learned
that her father wished her to consent
she promised to marry the man on her
seventeenth birthday, and then had
almost forgotten all about it, espe-

clally as it had been Gordon Phillips
whim that she should not see him
until they met before the clergyman.
That six months had passed much
as before, except that her father ap-
peared to have more money than
usual, until they went to the little
village of Jolligille, and there Maisie
met Fred. 1t was a case of love at
first sight with them both, and then
it was that her rapidly approaching
marriage began to assume hateful pro-
portions.
But, darling, he cannot love you as
much as l do," Fred had pleaded, but
Maisie only shook her sunny head and
whispered back: "
81 don't know anything about that,
Fred, dear; just do know that
promised"
But you weren't of age, and the
promise won't hold in law Fred sug-
gested, but she turned upon him with
reproach in her violet eyes.
Fred! AS though ones conscience
was only bound by the law!" she ex-
claimed.
You do love me?" Fred asked eag-
| erly.
"Yes, of course" Maisie returned
sadly, "and for that reason we mustn't
see anything more of eacn o,ner," and
although Fred pleaded she held firm to
her resolution. She did love him only
too well, she could not help that, but
she could refrain from tanning that
love by association with him, and she
did, and bravely. However, she felt
her heart grow faint within her girl
ish bosom. and she wondered if she
was destined to live very. very long.
81 have heard" she told herself,
"that the worst of sorrow grows less
as time goes on, and perhaps mine
will, but it don't seem as though it
could" and she sighed in a way to
make anyone feel unhappy about her,
so young and yet so miserable The
cushions supporting her had come
from her future husband. The palm
at which she stared was also his gift
A costly diamond cleaned on her lit
tie left hand, and If she had known it,
all the money in her fathers pocket
was derived from the same source, for
Gordon Phillips was wealthy man,
| and if his conduct was to be taken as
any sign of his character, he was q
generous man.
Strange he doesn't want me to see
him, until we meet tomorrow night be-
fore the clergyman she mused; then
came terrible thought that drove
her from her couch in wild-eyed hor-
ror.
'Is he something dreadful to look
att" she moaned.. Was that the rea-
son? Suddenly she remembered her
father, and running to his door, raped
on it with trembling hand.
Papa, papa, let me come in," she
pleaded.

Good Word for the Rat.

Had it not been for wire roll used
in dressing the hair, Gertrude Brown,
the fourteen year-old daughter of P.
S. Brown, would undoubtedly have lost
her life when she was thrown from
her horse recently.
It so happened that Miss Brown had
rolled her hair higher than usual and
so the wire rat received the brunt of
the fall. The injury was directly un-
der the roll and was a jagged three
cornered hole. The. girl fell on the
back of her head upon loose stone
in the street and the wire roll covered
with hair kept the stone from fractur-
ing the skull.
