to reason I stopped at the hotel, where

Mechanically she put forth her hands,

a slight Hush had oonurto her cheeks.
“Mary," 1 cuntimied, slowly ami Hoft-

thought flushed upon me tlmt some one
might have told Iter something to my

needed hut a word or two uf bmilering
and the cKp eaaion of a decided belief
on the part of tho company that both
would recoil from the undertaking, to
fire the rends of the young conplt, und
they forthwith proceeded to a well-known
clergyman.nnd made known their errand.
The uliqlit tu-hc-grooni uml the reverend
gent Ionian stopped out for a moment's

Hut tho end wuh not yut—the affair at

to excite serious aiiprehoiremns, and in-
ipiir or lido tho effect of tho ceremony
revealed tho fact that the parties w-Ore
ns Artemiii Ward would say, "A good

tle of fi-di. Tho daughter of well known
and highly respectable parents, tho wife
of n man she never thought of loving—
the joko of n moment und tho thought
less iuilery of II hrenth, turned into a
moat serious matter and of a life-long
extent. Legal advice sought from tho
