tell you.
And then there was the wedding of
Sarah Rawson and Marion Smith,
when the Trinity Church was a gor-

another superb, and of course, costly
affair.
And who of us who were at the din

Then there was dinner-dance of the

Fanchette! She knew nothing of the world as yet. She could not under. stand.
 One day, late in October, she was sitting on the stone wall, her eyes ofl across the valley and her thoughts in far-off Gascony, when Ponpon came upon her.

 "Fanchette! Dear little Fanchette This is serious. Tell Ponpon."
 Fanchette only shook her head and winked the tears back. For long time the good hearted fellow who had worked all the mischief regarded her in silence, then, unwilling to leave without a word said:

PONPON'S STOLEN KISS
By ROB M'ChEYNE.

The sloping vineyards along On tario were lightly yelled in the mists of Indian summer. In the air was that langurous warmth that steals into the veins and lulls the brain to dreams and reminiscence. The giant cataract could be heard faintly, drowsy, dis tant hum of monotony-a sound that seemed to pervade everything and reach the bewildered brain, strangely associated with the heavy odor of grapes, full ripe; the rich clusters hanging everywhere.
 It Is only by some such psychologi. cal analysis, whether scientific or not that an explanation can be found for the startling fact that Fanchette, go ing home from the days picking. al. lowed Ponpon the jester. the clown, the great laughing registering Ponpon, to imprint upon her pretty, upturned, scralet lips, kiss, thinking all the while it was Antoine.
 And such a kiss! A group of gay young girls turned at the sound. only to see the demure Fanchette, blushing to be sure, but smiling in serene un. consciousness of the fact that it was Ponpon who had slipped up behind her and tipped her chin back. as Antoine sometimes did when he was not toe serious.
 50, that is the way when Antoine is not here!" And she turned back to wait for Antoine.
 When he came up Ponpon was hang. ing over him, casting all manner of jibes at him.
 You have excellent taste, Antoine. I swear her little chin is as soft as ze breast of le perdrix." He burst into loud guffaw. Here Is La Orig. non"-he had given the dark-eyed girl this nickname because she was tall as a maypole. and it had stuck because she was pretty as one-"she will tell you; she saw Fanchette kiss me-"
 Yes, and I think it is outrageous of her"
 Ponpon was not prepared for this, as he had no idea anyone had seen him, and had called La Grignon into it only to tease Antoine So he quick ly ran off to join another group. But Antoine was silent and his companion had no chance to poison his mind against her rival.
 Fanchette entered the vine-covered cottage and kissed her mother with the happiest of faces.
 'Ah, my little Mignon, see you have made up your quarrel of last night with Antoine"
 ''Yes. mamma, he slipped up behind me as I was walking home-O. mann ma, it was so good of him. I know I was in the wrong last night and shall tell him so when he comes to night"
 But Antoine did not come. The next day Fanchette noticed a differ ence in the way the girls treated her.
 Day after day of the balmy Indian summer passed away and Fanchette, no longer in doubt of the worlds in. justice went about her work with a sad little heart Wha. has sffs done? Poor
