Under the impulse Of the spirit,
Simeon was found in the temple at the
likeliest hour for the fulfillment of
this pious hope, which had been cher

to recognize the child who was to dis
charge the Messianic vocation at the

pronounce priestly benediction, but
to praise God because his hopes had
at last been richly realized The Nunc

Miss Jeanette had lived in dread OF
a misalliance for Matte, and now her
worst fears seemed about to be real

She gave another long, comprehend
ing look at the unshaven young driver
and, with little groan Of horror, sank
to the floor in faint.
Butch promptly took his departure
after giving a frightened ring on the
bell Of the fiat next door, trusting that
some one might come to the. woman's

clared Mrs. Carman comfortingly. "I

Miss Jeanette gave her rescuer q

withdrew to sit patiently on the front

return. There Gene found her when
he came out to go to work, and he

H fession. He was night editor
on morning paper, and he
came home anywhere between 2 and 9
o'clock in the morning.
Miss Jeanette was country bred,
and for forty years she had accepted
without question the dictum that those
who were out Of night were no bet
ter than thieves and robbers.
Just what was the difference be-
tween thieves and robbers Miss Jean
nette did not know. She knew only
that those Were the only sort Of per-
sons who were out when decent folk
should be abed, so when her pretty
niece, Matte Boyer, gave evidence Of
more than passing interest in Car
man she very promptly frowned upon
the young man and warned Matte
that she must have nothing more to
do with the Carmans, mother and son.
The latter lived on the floor above
Matte and her maiden aunt, and kind
ly Mrs. Carman had been a tower Of
strength to Miss Jeanette when she
and Matte had first come to the city
to live.
She had pointed out the best places
at which to trade and helped Miss
Jeanette to get an obnoxious tenant
on the lower floor out Of the house
and had initiated both the elder and
the younger woman into city ways
generally.
Naturally 1t had hurt the old lady
when the Boyers had terminated their
friendly relations without word Of
warning, but hint from Matte to
Gene soon set matters right.
Matte was accustomed to Miss jean
nettes sudden whims. and she assured
Gene that presently there would be a
turn of the tide in his favor. Mean
while she had to obey Miss Jeannette's
prohibition against seeing Gene, so
the only communication they held was
by means Of notes.
Every morning when Gene came
home from his work he found note
stuck in the wide mouth Of the empty
milk bottle beside the Boyer doorway.
The milkman came through the house
later, gathering up empty bottles ana
leaving the filed ones.
To any person who CHANGED to pass
it would appear to be note OF in
structions to the milkman. but to
Gene, coming home tired and some
times disheartened, the little blue en-
velopes were like mental cocktails.
The same bottle would not serve as
his postoffice as we'll. for Miss Jean
nette TOXIN the milk.
The best that Gene could do was to
| leave his letters in the candy store on
the corner where Matte could get
them when she returned from her
work.
Had Mrs. Carman been willing to
act as messenger the problem would
have been far more simple, but the
kindly old lady would have nothing to
do with the affair.
She was hurt that the friendship
should be so suddenly terminated and
still more hurt that her son should be
regarded as ineligible. She wondered
at his lack of pride that he should still
want to marry Matte in spite Of Miss
Jeannette's prohibition, and she was
most ostentatiously neutral.
For time the milk bottle postoffice
answered its purpose excellently. Miss
Jeanette went to bed early and
let Matte close the house, so that the
latter set the bottle out In the hall
every evening.
But one morning Gene did not come
