No. 77, dwelling place of Humer and
Bernard Durand.
"If I had thought you were going
to be such a fool, I'd never have in
troduced you to her."
“Now, listen here, Homer, If you
think I am going to argue with you,
you're badly mistaken, ’cause I've got
something else to do."
"Well, I’m not going to argue with
you, either, *o don't get all excited—

her first? Do you suppose sin I turn

"That's all right; she feels d’Terent
toward me. You—you see—I’ i » going
to marry her—that Is—If—if she'll
have me."
"Hal Ha I If she'll have you, is
right I”
"Say, you, if you didn't wear glasses
I'd trounce you right here!"
Something Indeed serious might
have hapjiened then if som<<>ne had

a note for each. The envelop «-s were
of the same dainty size, and । nk, and
addressed In the same har ¡writing.
Ench boy tore open his lett t imme
diately. A sigh of disapi ointment
escaped the Ups of Homer, and a
"darnlt" from Bernard. Neither would
give the other any Information as to
what hl* note contained; each new It
was from the same person.
About seven o’clock of the evening
of the class dance Bernard entered
the room to find Homer sitting by the
window, evidently very much interest
ed in Virgil.
. "Aren't you going to the dance. Ho-
mer?” asKed Bernard, in
very
troubled voice.
"No, I'm not going tonight. Profes-
sor Carnes 18 giving us an exam, on
Virgil first class tomorrow. I've got
to study.”
“Mighty poor excuse, Homer. I bet
Yvette wouldn’t go.”
"Well, all right then, she wouldn’t—
but I don't see you getting ready to
take her. She refused you, too, didn't
she?"
"It’s none of your business whether
she did or not, and if you weren’t a
Ann friend of mine, I wouldn't tell
you that much!”
During the course of the evening
neither left the room. but studied dll-
igently and retired early.
The next morning Homer cut his

riding with Yvette. It was a crisp,
sunny morning in November, aqd with
the only "her" riding beside him. Ho
mer felt as though he could conquer
the world, She glanced bewltchingly
at him, her eyes full of mischief, her
white teeth gleaming, and, touching
her horse’ with her whip, she leaped
forward and gave the junior memlier
of the Hume family a merry chase
for half an hour. As he caught up to
her they stopped their horses for
breath, and, leaning across, he put his
band over her small gloved ones.
“Yvette, dear, I—I wanted to tell
you ever since I've known you that
I—I—love you, and want you to be
my wife!"
She placed her tiny gloved hand
across his mouth and bushed him. He
grasped her hand and placed it to his
lips and kissed it tenderly, again and
again.
“Don’t, please don't, Homer. You
can’t Imagine how fond I am of you,
but I can never, never marry you.
You know there Is a lot of scandal
about me and—”
"Yvette, please don't speak aborut

"No; somehow I know you don't,'

The same afternoon Bernard took
Yvette to tea at the Peacock tearoom.

the school grounds. They had gone

"Miss .Darquese — Yvette — I love

"Why. Bernie, you surprise me! I
never thought you would take our
friendship so seriously.”
“But I do. I’ve always loved you.

"I'm sorry, Bernie, so sorry, that
