Mrs. Whitcomb had almost blushed
when she had murmured to Lieuten-

1t was during the excitement over
the decoration of the bridal section,
that the stateroom-tenants slipped in
unobserved.
First came a fluttering woman
whose youthful beauty had certain
hue of experience, saddening and
wisering. The porter brought her in
from the station-platform led her to
the stateroom's concave door and
passed in with her luggage. But she
fingered without, Peri at the gate
Of Paradise. When the porter re.
turned to bow her in, she shivered and
hesitated, and then demanded;
"Oh, porter, are you sure there's no.
body else in there?'
The porter chuckled, but humored
her panic.

Being an angel must have this great
advantage at least, that one may sit In
the grandstand overlooking the earth
and enjoy the ludicrous blunder OF
that great blind mans buff we call
life.
This night, If any angels were
watching Chicago, the Mallory mix-up
must have given them a good laugh,
or good cry-according to their ma.
lures.

Then the angels might have nudged
one another and said
ooh, it's all right now. There goes
the minister hurrying to their very
car. Mallory has the license in his
pocket, and here comes the parson.
Hooray!"
And then the angelic cheer must
have died out as the one great hurrah

They had been married for thirty

The little woman in the timid gray

Having recounted this plan in the
full belief that 1t was even at that mo-
ment being carried out successfully,
Lieutenant Hudson, with a ghoulish
smile, explained:
Being old friends of the bride and
groom, we want to fix their section up
in style and make them truly comfort
able"
"Delicious!" gushed Mrs. Whitcomb.
"But you ought to have some rice and
old Shoes"
Here's the rice" said Hudson.
Here's the old Shoes" said Shaw.
Lovely" cried Mrs. Whitcomb, but
then she grew soberer. II should think,
though, that they-the young couple
would have preferred stateroom."
"Of course" said Hudson, almost
blushing, but 1t was taken. This was
the best we could do for them"
That's why we want to make it
nice and bride-like," said Shaw. "Per.
haps you could help us-a woman's

young men and the bundles. The un.

to obey, Mrs. Whitcomb checked him
with: "Oh, Porter, could you get US
a hammer and some nails?"
The porter almost blanched: Good
Lawd, Miss, you amt allown' to drive
nails in that woodwork, is you?' That
woodwork was to him what the altar
is to the priest.
But Hudson, resorting to heroic
measures, hypnotized him with two
dollar bill: Here, take this and see
nothing, hear nothing, say nothing"
The porter caressed it and chuckled:
I'm blind, deaf and speechless." He
turned away, only to come back at
once with timid "Scuse mel"
You here YETI" growled Hudson.
Anxiously the porter pleaded Il

with alarm, as she saw Wellington's

If Hudson and Shaw had not been
football veterans at West Point and
had not known just what to do when
the center rush comes bucking the
line, they could never have blocked
that flying wedge. But they checked
him and impelled him backward
through his own curtains into his own
berth.
Finding himself on his back, he de-
cided to remain there. And there he
remained, oblivious of the carnival
preparations going on just outside his
canopy.

Mrs Jimmie was so well USED to

shocks she had administered. She en-

In the corridor she administered an
other thrill-this time to tall young

as a weasel for mischief. He huddled
himself and his suitcases into as fiat
space as possible, murmuring:
