The train came but no familiar face.
There was great grief and an unrel-
ished wedding supper followed by a
sleepless night in store for the dis
appointed bride, who didn't know
whether she was longer prospective or
not. The minister was dismissed how
ever, and the household settled down
to quietneSs.
The next morning the telephone
rang before any one was up and

bride On reaching the phone she

bride responded with an insult added

around the station platform and not

waiting, tried to telephone. receiving
no answer So the delay of twenty
