Helen. did you notice in The Bee
thai Bessie c. Is TO marry Harold d.
There 10 quite a little romance connected
with this.
A few years ago Miss c. went with a
party to Lake Manaw or returning she
missed a beautiful eomeo pin, which she
had worn. She could not imagine where
she had lost It. She had been sailing in
one Of the yachts and had afterwards gene
over TO the AMUSEMENT side OF the lake
where she had spent some time on the
roller coaster and at the pavilion. rhe
returning car was very crowded. When
they got to FarnRm street no car was in
sight so they walked up the street and
were near Sixteenth when a park car
crossed Farnam and as II was late they
hurried to catch II. OF course she was at
a loss TO known where she lost It as she
had been kept on the go all evening.
The following day she inserted an ad
in The Bee. Several days later a young
man 'phoned that he had found a pin in
ing 1t she knew that II belonged to her.
She gave him her name and address and
asked him to send II to her by messenger.
However, he decided to act as his own
messenger and accordingly brought It to
her, And through this means an acquaint-
ance sprung up. I see by tonight's paper
that the final chapter will soon be written.
