she who had suggested that the life:

The doctor, fussy little person
with straggly. mutton-chop whiskers,
steel-bowed glasses and a double chin,
hurriedly entered the machine and
the return trip was made In record
time. From behind came onto them
the music Of muffled drums and the
nlaintive minor of the hfes. The
march to the cemetery had begun.
HE is badly shaken up," diagnosed
the little doctor. HE wants rest and

"Don't feel bad" soothed Dolly. a
tender note in her voice, as she
placed cool. soft little hand on the
brow Of the old soldier. He was now
in bed at the Horton home.
Corliss gazed at the girl wistfully.
Every moment It was being brought
home to him that he had lost a
jewel.
Darn such luck!" grumbled the
disconnected Uncle Ezra.
The eyes Of the repentant lover
sped a telepathic message to the
brain of the maid and, responding to
this, she turned her head and looked
and him an--blushed.
On the broad veranda, as the young
man was taking his leave. he sud-
denly turned to the pretty girl who
had accompanied him.
Must the engagement remain
broken?" he asked plaintively.
"Why, IL thought you wished It
So" she replied, eyes cast down, "but

later, came the stirring notes Of 1.-The

for congressman whose name does
