Oniy high-class materials used in my work. A young man-ho was about thirty— was on tin? roof or a little trap of u house nestling among trees on the margin of a lake in the heart of Ver mont. ills costume was a pair of soiled trousers ami a Annuel shirt. What occupied him on the roof was replacing rotted shingles. A woman in an auto, which she was driving herself, saw him from the road, which ran a hundred feet from the house, title stopped her machine and called to him. "I say—you there—on the roof!” The sliingler looked up. "Are you married}" "No.” "I’ll give you a thousand dollars tf you'll marry me right off." The man was about to drive n unit, but suspended ids work nnd looked at the woman for a moment, then said: "Wait a lilt. I'll rome down nnd bnve a look at you. If you're not a Gorgon l don't know but I'll take you up." He slid down to a ladder, descended by it to tlie ground and walked leisure ly toward the woman who was so anxious for a husband. "Hurry up!" she called. The man hastened Ills steps nnd soon stood beside the auto. In tt was a young woman between twenty nnd twenty- five years old and comely. “What I have to say must be said In a hurry. I have property which was left me in care of those who will In herit tt in case I don't comply with a condition of the will, which Is that I shall be married by the time I am twenty-two. I shall be twenty-two In three days. Those who will Inherit If I don’t are after me to shut me up on the ground of lunacy. Oh. heavens!” She paused, listened, then went on. "I thought I heard them coming. 1 have only half an hour's start”— "Til get In and you can tell me the rest on the way.” "Oh. do!" He got In beside hpr. and she start ed on. "1 understand your case." he said. "You wish me to marry you to comply with the provision in the will." "I do." "And I as your husband will have a prior right to those who are after yon to your care?" "I didn't think of that.” "Turn to the left here. Do yon see that spire over there? The parson lives In that little white house with green blinds beside it.” Sli. turned as directed, and the man continued: "You wish me to agree beforehand not to claim any marital rights, the marriage being one of form solely, ex cept ns shall aid you in your legal contest, and to consent to an annul ment when you desire one?” “How nice to have yon say It all In stead of having to do It myself! I have always considered you country people stupid. You surprise me.” "This agreemeut must be verbal nnd a secret between us or it might defeat its purpose. You’ll have to trust me. If I go back on my pledge you can’t hold me since there is neither a writ ten contract nor witnesses to a verbal one.” The only reply to this was n gasp. Suddenly there was a sound coming from behind which both knew to be from an autocar whose driver was gaining power for his machine by cut ting off the muffler. The woman, yielding unconsciously to the Instinct of relying on a man for protection, was about to relinquish her grasp on the wheel to throw her arms around her companion when, see ing her design and not being In posi tion to steer the car himself, he ad monished her sharply. “Hold on for your life!” This steadied her. and she kept the machine in the road while the man. reaching over to the wheel, turned on all the speed of which the car was ca pable. The road was tortuous; the machine rocked and skidded. But fortune fa vored the fugitives, and, although sev eral times they came near going over, they kept right side up till they struck n straight level, at the end of which was tile church and beside it their goal. "Here we are,” he continued as they dashed up to the white house with green bliuds. There was a bonk be hind them. and. looking back, they saw a cloud of dust. “All depends on our finding the parson at home.” He Jump ed from the car, ran to the house and hammered on the door. The sum mons was answered by the parson himself. “Will you marry us?" asked the lady, who had come up. "Got a license?” “Ob. heavens! Must we have that?" The groom expectant explained in a few words the situation, and the clergyman consented. The pair went Inside, gave their names and were married. “Got a gun In the bouse?" asked the groom. “A fowling piece I shoot birds with." “Let me have it” The clergyman brought his gun and gave It to the man who had asked for it There was no reason why he should not do so. for It was not load ed. At the same moment an auto with two men In It Unshed up to the parsonage. They were both well dress ed. and one of them was nn attorney. The clergyman responded to their knock, opening the door. "1 have a warrant for the person of Lueile Havens,” stiitl the •uwyer. "So such person here," responded the groom. "There she Is! 1 demand that she be given up to me peaceably." "That Indy Is my wife, Mrs. Charles Cummings.” Both the newcomers started. “Are you a clergyman?" the lawyer asked of the parson. "1 am." The men who were after the girl consulted apart from flic others; then tile lawyer advanced and said: "There are doubts as to the legality of tills marriage. The groom being evidently a countryman and of a dif ferent station in life from the bride, it Is evident, that the marriage lias been made for the sole purpose of defeating (lie law. 1 demand the person of Lu eile Havens or I,nolle Havens Cum mings, ns the case may be.” lie advanced toward the bride. Cum mings took up the gun which he had stood in a corner and. aiming it at him. told him that If lie laid a Anger on Ills bride lie would shoot him. The lawyer saw determination in the other's eye and drew back. Then came another consultation between tlie two who had come for tile woman, nt the end of which they entered ttieir auto and stnrtcd bnok In tlie direction from which they came. "I am glad to have served you." said the groom. "I will he pleased to recompense you," replied the bride in a state of happy excitement. She look a roll of bills from her pocket and was about to hand one of them to tile clergyman when her hus band waved her buck. “It Is the groom's part to pay the wedding fee," he said. "Mr. Gregory, I haven't the wherewithal witli me, but will band it to you Inter." The bride looked surprised at this, but was too happy at having escaped being taken to a lunatic asylum to think much nliout it. She bade ttie clergyman adieu with her thanks, then asked her husband to get lulu ttie car that she might drive him back to re sume his shingling. He assented, and they drove away. "If you will give me your address," said the wife. "I will send you a check for tlie thousand dollars 1 promised you.” "1 would advise you to defer that payment. These gentlemen who were after you will doubtless endeavor to prove that it was a mere agreement to defeat the law. and I fear they will succeed. There were uo witnesses present.” "Oh, my goodness gracious!" "I think you laid better do uolhing nt present In remunerating me. 1 am In no especial need of money. Rather l would advise my remaining near you to protect you in case they try lo get pos session of your person. Once you are in their bauds I might not lie able to get you away from them—at least not without a legal struggle." "If you will go to the city with me I will hear all expenses and remunerate you liberally.’’ “I will go with pleasure.” By Lids time they had reached Cum mings’ house, lie alighted to get to gether Ids belongings and shut up liis house. This required time, and bis wife waited more than half an hour for him. When he returned she did uot recognize him till he threw a satchel into the auto before getllug in himself. “Well. I declare!” she exclaimed in astonishment "What are you doing in those clothes?” He entered the auto anil as they drove along briefly told her Ills story. He was a professor in a college. Hav ing a taste for rural life, he hud bought a little shuck beside the lake and lilted it up for summer occupancy. There he lived in camp costume during vacation time. He found it rather lonely, hut since he was obliged to do u great deal of studying It was the best way of living during tlie heated term that he could devise. This sudden transformation, the prospect of having to deal with an educated gentleman in a matter of such Importance to her, was simply piling Joy upou Jo.v on the young bride. She was driving to a country seat about twenty miles distant, belonging to the estate which she had inherited, the intention being to take a train from there for the oily. But on urrlval it wus decided to remain where they were until the enemy should by some overt act make known what his course would he. If a chaperon were needed for u husband and a wife there were others in file house besides the serv ants. and it came out on a trial which subsequently took place that the couple behaved with great circumspection. When September came Professor Cummings went home to resume his college duties, anil his bride, fearing that if she were separated from her legal husband an effort might be made by her opponents to get possession of her, went with him. Meanwhile a quick courtship had been going on, which ended In a proposal, and it was suggested, in view of the exigencies of tlie case, the couple be married again and live together as man and wife. But Professor Cummings was opposed to another mnrriage on the ground that It might be construed as an acknowl edgment that the first was invalid. If It was the heiress would not have compiled with the terms of the will since she had been twenty-two years of age some time before; consequently they returned to occupy the same house, and a second marriage never took place. WALLACE IRWIN writer ami lyricist "Tuxedo is always welcome. A pleasant smoke, a mental bracer —the ideal tobacco.” n You Smoke a “Better” Tobacco —Why Not Smoke The Best? T HE tobacco you now smoke you con sider “better tobacco than you ever smoked before.” Naturally, you kept trying until you found a “better” one. But it stands to reason that since there is a difference in tobaccos, you may be miss ing still greater pleasure in -a still better smoke —in the BEST smoke, in fact. Tuxedo is the best smoke because no better tobacco leaf grows, and no process of treating tobacco leaf equals the original “Tuxedo Process.” HENRY HUTT f am out, i.rtKt "A pipeful of Tuxedo puls new life into ms. lire mildest and purest tobacco grotm.” GEORGE E. PHILLIPS Mayor of''*,vi^:* n. Kentucky "A good pips, an I 1 iixeda to fill it, and I’m satisfied, i he tobacco in {he liltie green tin has no rival an far as [ cm concerned A->-~ The Perfect Tobacco for Pipe, and Cigarette We know that Tuxedo is made of the BES T tobacco—rich, mellow, perfectly aged Kentucky Burley. None better can be bought, because none better is grown. It is treated by the famous orifrinnl “Tuxedo Process'’ for removing the sting and bite of the natural vegetable oils. Tuxedo was horn in 1904. Its first imitator appeared two years later. Since then a host of imi tations have sprung up. No other tobacco can give the unique pleasure of Tuxedo because no other maker has yet been able to equal tlie Tuxedo quality.
