sinin lived demure maiden and ;
baehful man, who had for some
years been living with but one ant
the same object before them. Botl
were hopeless victims of .'love mi
crohes," that were doing most effec
tual work under the direction o.
Cupid himself.
Finally Harry suddenly woke VI
one day, and decided that procrasti
nation was the thief of time ant
bliss and he Immediately set about
to bring matters to a focus. Very
soon there was a wedding, and II
wasn't much longer before their
Uncle Bill Taylor of McConnelsville
wrote effusively of what he termed
grit and proposed that If they
would locate here, he would start
them up in life. Very soon they be-
gan to bid loved ones adieu and
were soon speeding in this direction
When the train pulled in, gener-
GUS Uncle Bill was at the depot to
greet them and welcome much
elated couple, and after hearty con-
gratulations, he conducted them
straightway to the Kennebec hotel.
1t was at breakfast next morning
while partaking of tempting menu
that was being politely served, that
Uncle Bill first unfolded his plans to
the appreciative newcomers, obligat-
ing himself, first of all, to build and
furnish for them modern home.
"But in the meantime" he said,
"you will find this hotel a. pleasant
and most agreeable place to live
since it is widely known as our best
appointed and most zealously man
aged hotel, and favorite with the
knights of the Grip under the
good management of MISS BESSIE
WOODWARD who personally looks
after the welfare of those sojourn-
ing under it's roof"
Come said the generous uncle,
rising from the breakfast table, "the
pleasure is now mine to introduce
you to our town, your future home.
Then, too, / want to arrange to
build the new home right away. Or
course, it is important that we select
pleasant and healthful location,
where we have agreeable environ
ments about us" Uncle Bill was
soon astir, and the young couple
eager and beaming with expectancy.
First we will go in and confer
with EMMETT A. TAYLOR who is
well-informed on real estate.
Now l am at sea-" said Uncle
Bill. at beats all how houses are
built these days, considering the
way they built them fifty years ago.
Why, the modern houses of today
are so much 'snappier' and have
conveniences' and comforts that one
of my time never dreamed of. But
dilemma said he, suddenly re-
membering ]. M. SCOTT e SONS as
men of original ideas and good
taste in practical architecture, and
also as being actively associated
with the building interests here. j.
M. SCOTT G SONS very soon fur
nished the plans for most pleas
ing and pretentious SIS 500 residence
for the bride, who agreed to give
them turnkey job.
1t is renaissance of Corinthian ef-
feet, symmetrical in appearance and
commodious to degree in its in
terror arrangements, and it is just
what the bride had longed fora
real modern, up-tothe-minute home.
Finding the yards, sheds and
warerooms filed with rough and
dressed lumber of all dimensions,
and the manifold items in building
material, adequate to meet the de-
mands of the exacting public, he
had J. M. SCOTT & SONS to furnish
the bill of lumber and every item
for the whole job. Uncle Bill re-
marked that he found these people
very prompt and agreeable to do
business with.

plumbing and scientific ventilation |
