"This is funny coincidence, Mis-
Loring, that you and / should meet IN

her best chum at college" We were also

other two, (your cousin and Mani, can
get TO the depot in time to catch the
train. Nan said she wouldn't miss going
to this house-party Tor anything, because
she knew that 'Kathie' would. be there,
and it would seem SO good to see her
again
The girl colored slightly when he spoke
her name, because he said ii 20 softly
and tenderly. The man did not seem to
notice the flush however. and went right
on talking as il he had known her long
time.
When the cab stopped at the station
james Lawrence looked ut his watch, and
it was sos.
Why" he said, in surprise, we
have seven minutes before our train is
due; suppose we 90 and try 70 find Nan
and you cousin, Mr.. Gaslatin.'
They got out OF the cab and began
their search; they had not gone very far
before they heard two voices behind
them, calling their names, and there
came Nan and Phil GRllatin, together,
toward theml
Jim, you certainly are fine one; the
idea of your leaving me up town to wait
for you, and then get in cab with some
one else and leave me there to come
alone. But see, ! didn't have to come
alone, because Phil-er-I mean Mr..
Gallatin, conldn't find his cab, and he
got in the very first one he could find
(which happened TO be the one sin).
Oh, Kathie, / am so glad to see you
again after all these months Tell me
all about yourself at once"
Come ON, girls, here's our train, and
you two can talk TO each other after you
get on board, /" said Phil.
But james Lawrence didn't approve Of
that idea, for he helped the girls on and
sat down beside Nan and the two were
soon lost in deep conversation.
Jim and Kathie were talking as il they
had known each other always, and they
seemed to forget that there were two PEG
pie sitting facing them.
jim leaned real close to Kathie's ear
and said something. She looked up end
smiled very sweetly as she said, "And

Presently the young man pulled out
his watch, fumbled for a matchbox,
struck light and groaned as he read
the time. At the sound of the match
striking, the young lady turned her
head. Then, as the bright flame ilInmi-
mated the young mans face, she sat bolt
upright, dropping the muf to,her lap
with cry Of dismay.
He looked up at her. The match burned
his fingers; he dropped it and hurriedly
lighted another and the Pickering radi-

whom he had never laid eyes on before.
