THE HERMIT LOVER


"a = $50 :
BY Grace BeuIah Windsor
Randall Ware had read in some
book or newspaper that there are
animals which, when desperately
wounded, seek some secluded spot in
which they may die peacefully. This
required to him as he gloomily picked
up his sportsman's outfit, prepara-
tory to speedy dash for the wilder
ness.
For he had been grievously wound
ed-in his affection, it was true, but
all that was worth striving for
seemed to have gone out of his life
and he was inclined to give up the
struggle.
This had happened: The young
lady with whom he was desperately
in love, and who he was assured sin
cerely returned his affection, was
about to marry another. This was
her wedding eve. 1t had been tor
ment unutterable to remain in the
same town where she was, but jeal-
ously guarded from his company-it
was slow torture now to inger with
in the echoes of wedding bells that
might peal forth the joy of others,
but to him misery-his doom!
It was all the fault of purse-proud,
autocratic parents. If Leila Bridges
had gone so far as to engage her
self to Ware the latter would have
stood his ground and maintained his
rights. AS it was, while eye to eye
had spoken unutterable devotion, no
definite promise had passed between
them. Ware had been refused adj
mittance to the Bridges home, Leila
was whisked away to a whirl of So
cial gayety in the city. Only one tiny
note, evidently dispatched under diff
ficulties, for it was hasty scrawl,
bore Leila's initials, with the eng
matte words: 81 shall fool them yet,
and you'll shall never forget"

camping place he and his friends had
so often visited, that he passed the
summer home of a cousin of Leila's.
In fact, it was here that he had first
met Leila. That was the previous
season, when she and her mother had
been guests of the cousin in question
and of his family.
1t was quite dusk as the old buck
board wagon passed the Lodge, as it
was called, and Ware noticed lights
moving about the place.

and perfection Of nature and to sweet
en- your life with its fragrance, elevate
your ideals with its beauty and expand
your Imagination with it's power.
These products as food are fit for

Before leaving the parlor Of agricul.
