The young Roman, not yet 20, wore bi* Buuday clothes and a wor ii*d, anxious and expectant l*ok in big other eye, while he kept oae turned on eveiher approach of the bridge. The city of Rome uis’tl o one aid* lay quie' a::d resiling fiom a day's busy toil, while tn the other hand East liume, the poetic little suburban metropolis was nestling in her ’own red hills and dreaming of black ber - ry time, and wondering where hei own dummy line was at.

Eagerly and anxiously h* look ed ab*uth im and peered into the face of each passing p*de*tria*.

Hf wailed long and patiently, but finally a friend joined him and then, another and another. Presently"the rattle of wheel* on the macadam of Second avenue was heard, the nois* became loud er, and finally from the gloora of the water oaks, Dr. C S. Harris, driving old Tom —an animal that baa witnessed more marriages than any hoss in Georgia, rolled up on to the Rom* entrauce of the bridge Theyoung Roman’s heart leap*d into hia mouth—but be swallowed it back" again. “Well,“ eaid Dr. Harris, “wheres the bride elect?-* To this pointed and business like question the young man vouched no reply, but gazed sadly towaids the shadows that hovered over the Rome entrance of the bridge. Then came a long and heart rending spell of almost dvathly •uepense.puaetured ev ry now and again by whispered exclamation* a d ih* Rome wo ks-whistle sighs.
