"Ah," Mrs. Wells smiled. you fall TO
comprehend. I shall Introduce you by
letter"
That was In May, 1911. and tho maid
and the man began q correspondence
that increased In volume every week.
They sent photographs TO each other.
And in February last they became en-

The problem OF the wedding-the date
