Jack ahoiited anerfectu ally, two or three times, then pulled up nnd said to hlnwelf: "Well, let her go. She'll find out all I wanted to tell her." CIhmIo tllsappoared round a comer, and when Jack came to It nhe was not to be seen down the long avenue, on which the suiwlilne lllckenil ,hron the entwining branches of the trees overhead. Jack went on leisurely for a mile or two, then he Juiniied lightly off his machine and trundled It along iMSiide him. He was now uiHe away from c'v;ii7. it';o'. deep In the m'rtdle of the count 'i'. The road tad snii.n ii' ly become very bad and Jack, who knew the peculiarities of every lain within inllis around thought It safer to wheel Che bicycle along by hand rather than risk a puncture of his pneumatic tires on the. tfliaip flint atones scattered witih such p.ofiHiou along the way. Near a little mm it- bridge over a clear stream at the hot torn of a del he found what he cx pocted to find a very pretty gul, with a most woebegone, discoiwolate look on her face, anting on the grassy lank, looking forlornly at a to c. eh that lay on the road .wltili the tire of the hind wheel collapsi!. "Hulloa, Oissie," aid Ja:k breezily "Ilad a tumble?" "No," snapped Gltwie; "I am not In the habit of tumbling." lAh," aid Jack, "I see what Is the matter. The tire, to punctured. 1 knew that would happen. I shouted after you to toll you of this bit of road, but you would not listen." "I did not hoar you," Mild Clsxte. at whtoh assertion Jack raised hh eye brows with Incredulity, which mndi Obisle all the more angry, etaieclally as ahe knew ahe was telling a thing w'liuih was not true. "Well, I don't want any help from you, she said, curtly. "Why, of course not," returned Jack, fitting down on the opposite bank, and leaning tola bicycle against the hedge. "A person who come out on a wheel and doesn't know how to imend anything tlwt goes wrong tos ttimply a silly fool. One can see you undorstand all about cycling, because you have left your machine lying on the 'ground, and the oil hi running out of your laiirm." Olssle looked at the young man 1u amazement. "It IsnU your lamp," fthe said at hwt, 'tond I cau surely do what 1 like with my own. 1 don t ee what right you have to interfere." "Bless you, OlsHie," said Jack, "I am not interfering.

Oil every hand we see the tinhaimy effects of careless marriage wHhout fearing for ourselves, Just ns "all men think all men mortal but them selves," so we think the errors of others are nothing to us.

And how can iinytihlnir but misery result after marriage from unions made so thoughtlessly or hasti ly that lite Is pot lung tiiioligh to re pent them Niilllcieiitly, Observe the case of a poor man who select a girl because he Is smitten wllli her smart appearance.
