Evelyn and he were known TO each otbsr
since they were children. 1t was not hy
the hayward caprice Of chance that no
met her on the night of the me+eo,ss
fall, nor again, that he came to her .,
sistance second time after the Iapss n,
years.
1t was his mothers work. He w,,
faithful to her trust. Never did NJ.
confidence waver. On the day tbs,
Evelyn consented to marry him he
showed her his mothers photograph and
told her his belief.

"A good son makes a good husband

been good daughter, and 1 will trv
to be a good wife. Philip"
Apparently these young people had al.
tanned the very pinnacles OF earthly ham
piness. There was no cloud, no obstsc,s
All that was best in the world was q,
their feet.
Some such thought fitted through
Philips active brain once when EVELYN
and he were discussing the future
A Quick Wedding.
"Of course we will be busy" he said
laughing you are such an industrious
little woman-what? Well-such an In.
dustrious tall woman-that the DAYS
won't be long enough for all you will
find to go. AS for me, suppose must
try and earn peerage, just to give you
your proper place in society, and then
we will grow old gracefully"
''Oh, Philip" she cried, placing her
hands on his shoulders. I'VE met one,
as children for a few minutes. Fate or
dained that we should meet again under
strange circumstances. We were sep
arated for years. Can fate play us any
uncanny trick that will separate u,
again?'
well, sweetheart, fate, in the shap,
of Vale, is coming for me at 6. I'm
less you wish me to send for my man
and dress here

good fortune she said, softly. Tel
me. dearest how did you manage to live
until you were rs without falling in lows
/ with some other girl?''
That is ridiculously easy. Tell me
how you managed to escape matrimOnv
until you were % and your are an
sWered"
-. Philip, II liked you that night l
woebegone little boy. but you were 50
brave, and gave me your hand TO help
me from the carriage with the air Of
young lord"
And l have cherished your face 10
my waking dreams ever since. You
looked like fairy. And how you stuck
! up for me against your uncle"
| Tell me, what did you think Of me
when you saw me standing disconsoats
| in the parll?i
Tell, tell, tell-it was nothing but
sweet questions and sweet assurances
that this pair of turtle doves had been
seeking each other through all eternity
| Their wedding was fixed for the mid
! die of July. Sharp work, it may be said
| but what need was there to wait? Mr.
Abingdon was greatly pleased with Phil
ip's choice, and urged him to settle down
at the earliest possible date.
Mrs. Atherley, too raised no protest
! The sooner her beloved daughter was
| married, the more rapidly would lHs
resume its normal aspect they would
not be long parted from each other.
I The young people had no Housekeeping
cares. Philips mansions were replets
with all that could be desired by the
( most fastidious taste. His yacht was
brought to the Solent so that they could
run over to Portsmouth on a motor car
| to inspect her and Evelyn instantly de-
| termined that there honeymoon In Etreta
should be curtailed to permit them to
go for three weeks cruise around the
| British coast
