Ho was sauntering along with th* crowd, when be felt ■ heavy band on bls shoulder, and turning around, bo was exceedingly surprised to greet hl* old friend and college chum, Dick Har rington. After the usual exclama tions and hearty hand-shakes. they proceeded to talk uf th*lr college day* and buslnee Interests, “Excuse me, 1 had quit* forgotten to inquire about Mr*. Jack Harding." Jack blew a puff of smoke Into the air, and turn- Ing to hl* friend, «aid: “Dick, I bare nover had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Jack Harding.” Dick looked at Jack with a qulsslcel smile, and a merry twinkle In bls dark eye* “After I heard that Jean and you Were en gaged. I expected every day to receive an Invitation to the wedding, and for some time I seanned the dallies to see where Jaok Harding had succumbed to the charm* of the beautiful Mias Jean Wetherbee, only daughter of Hon. and Mrs. Douglas Grant Weth- erbeo." Dick sudodnly closod his re cital, a* Jack moved uneasily, and teas ing his cigar away, exclaimed with ap parent *urprt*e: “Dick, Jean and I were very happy until her mother de cided to take Joan on a Buropean trip for several month*. After an absence of four months, which bad seemed a lifetime to me, I received word that they were about to return, to which I was looking forward to a happy moot ing with Jean, and vowed nothing would Heparute u* again. “Father called me into hl* office one morning and told me I must pack at one* and sail for England. It was of th* utmost Importance. The business had to be attended to at once. Father was not able to make th* trip. I was to remain away at least three months, and then go to Pari* for sev eral weeks. I tried In vain to per suade father to send Proctor, who had been for year* In hl* employ. Thoro waa nothing left for me to do but pack and leave on the next boat for Liverpool. “I had just time to attend to these details and write * hurried note of regret to Jean's home to be delivered to her on her arrival. I was not so busy but I found time to write every day to Jean, but all my letters were returned to me unopened. This made mo feel very down-hearted, a* 1 had explained everything. If Jean had only been reasonable and read my letters. It was Just five mouth* to a day when I returned to the States. “It <lld not take me long to spin la the direction of Jean's home, only to find «he bad left the day before on a western trip. I could find out very little from the servants, until one of them came with a package that Jean had left to be delivered to me. It contained, with other present*, the engagement ring. That was five year* aco. I have never seen her or heard from her since.” Jack paused and hastily looking at his watch, exclaimed: “Well. Dick, It has got to be good-by. I have Just time to make my train.” Diet grasped Jack's arm and with a firm but kindly voice, exclaimed: “Do you suppose I have found you to lose you so soon? You are not going on that train. You are going home with me. I want you to see Elsie again. You know Jean and EM* used to be the dearest of friends. I want you to see my new home and how happy wo are. I know Elsie will be delighted to meet an old friend.” said Dick hurriedly, as he saw Jack waa about to decline. After a few more urgent appeal* Jack waa convinced. Dick telephoned from hla office to Elsie he was to brim; home an old friend to dinner. Dick stopped his car at what Jack thought the moat beautiful house on the street. Jack was made to feel right at home by the delightful greet ing of Elsie, who came out to meet them., looking up so dslnty and fair. Jack thought how fortune always seemed to smile on hl* dear old friend. Dick, while ho—his thought* were cut short, as he was being ush ered Into a large charmingly ar ranged living room.
