A BashfuI Couple.

Arthur had never kept company with
girl, nor had Maria ever received atten-
tions," but by some miracle they now
found themselves together, riding on
lonesome country road.
Conversation was at standstill. The
old nag stumbled along with his head
hung low, and would not hurry. Not a
man or house was in sight, not sound
could be heard. The silence was intense
and oppressive. Maria scanned the fringe
of ragweed on her side of the road. Ar
thur peered hopefully into the hazel brush
on his side.
A halt-grown rabbit sprangfrom some
where, and with dozen leaps was gone.
"Do you like rabbit" asked Maria,
impulsively.
"Yes," replied the swain, quickly.
And there he stopped. His mouth hung
wide open, but not another word occur
red to him.
He blushed. He remembered there
was not a house nor man in sight. He
strained his eyes at the fringe OF hazel
brush. The silence intensified, and bore
down like a palpable weight. Then Ar
thur drew in sharp breath, pulled him
self together resolutely, and glanced TO-
ward his friend.
"And myp' he said. "And myl Amt
the gravy good?"
