Well, the enigma is finally solved.
Curious he should have taken a fancy

"The impudence Of him! Probably il

'The scales have fallen from our
eyes. Did you read the latest about
Warren Wallace?" asked Mabel.
What of it? Why should you waste
your commiseration on people you
don't even know"
NO, we don't know Warren. We mis-
took him for a gentleman. man of
honor, but he's been sailing under false
colors. It's surprising belief that we
didn't recognize his true character
sooner. Just think, he's mixed up in
horrible, detestible abominable law
suit"

consider that the Warren of that SEN
sational article was the one we're ac-
quainted with"

evil ideas as to surmise that any
young man whom I associate with
would waste his time and money on
married womeu?"
"How easily for some persons to

other peoples words. FL be the last
to judge harshly, especially when the
young man was as loyal friend as
Warren who couldn't be anything but
a perfect gentleman" said Dorothy,
wishing that she might still have the
opportunity to wear her new dress at
the dance.
I'm thankful I'm not the suspicious
kind" said Celeste ia a very decided
manner. 81 knew all the time you
girls were mistaken
