HEM RIDDLE'S HOBBY It Lost Him His Bride t By KATHARINE GRAY "Our fellow townsman, the well known aeronaut," was the manner in which the Finchvillo thinner always icfYiRil to Ilcnienwiiy Riddle. Mr. Biddlo was the editor of the Banner, and In the jricsit shed hack of the printing nhice was anchored his bis lialloon. .On clear days after the paper had gone to press Mr. Riddle might he seen tinkering away at his balloon or else in tin! act of KoariiiK over the heads of his neighbors in the car attached to the gas inflated craft. Hem Riddle himself soared skyward because lie liked the strange sensation of hanging between earth and heaven with the ever present element of dan ger attached thereto. As a counter irritant to editing a country weekly newspaper he believed there was noth ing like it. excepting always Amabel Paine. At this (articular moment the Bu li ner had gone to press and was in the hands of its eager readers. Hem Rid dle was scaling the airy heights, and Amabel l'alne was swinging in a ham mock under the apple tree in her front yard. Amabel s eyes, bine us the sky above, were fixed dreamily on the greeu can opy of leaves overhead. There was one stot where she could see the sky. Suddenly across this bit of sky there raced a black blot. "(Mi, bother:-' pouted Amabel, all at once remembering that she was en gaged to Ileni Riddle. It was rathet disconcerting to recollect it. for at that very uiouient she had been dreamily reliving n few delicious hours spent In the company of Peter I.Hinb the pre vious evening. The gate creaked inward, and Pelei Lamb's massive form plodded sturdily down the shell path to the apple, tree. Amabel watched him, delighting in the glint of sunshine on his blond head nnd the answering gleam In his brown eyes when I hey met hers. She blushed and her eyes hid themselves uudet drooping lids as she sat up In the hammock and allowed her little hand to rest an instant in his big one. "I accepted your invitation to call," he laughed lather awkwardly as he, sat dowu in u tiig rustic chair and tossed his hut to the grass. "You cau sec that 1 haven't waited.'' Amabel's mouth curved deliciausly. "I am glad." she murmured, soothing the seam of her white duck skirt. "I'm that sort. When 1 want to do a thing 1 can't wait." he went on ear nestly. "I don't liellere I understand the pleasures of anticipation. I know what I want when I see it. and then I, want it right away." "Yes?" Amabel smoothed another senm. I'm going to shock you. Miss Paine." went on this startling young man In a determined tone. "Please don't," she murmured. "It sounds foolish on such short ac quaintance, but you know I used to live iu Fiiicbville. and we played to gether when we were children. Why. we went lo school together! The won der of it all Is I hut I should come back ii gain and meet you at the schoolhouse dance last night and not remember your name. I suppose I used to call you Amy," he ended daringly. Amabel said nothing, and Mr. Lamb, taking a fret.li grip on his courage, leaned forward eagerly. Ills hand some face was Uite crimson with em barrassment, but his brown eyes were pools of flauiing determination. "Don't laugh, please, but I love you, Amabel. I want to marry you," he said briefly. The girl's eyes flashed up with a startled question in their blue depths. It was us if she were questioning his sincerity. Ills eyes answered her. "I can't," she whispered sadly. "Why not?" His voice was tense. A shadow, passed between theiu and the sun. "That." She pointed upward. "Why, what do you meun? It's a balloon, isn't It?" he asked in a star tied tone. She nodded. "There's a man in It." she explained. His jaw tightened. "Ah! It's the man, I suppose';" "1 am engaged to Mr. Riddle," she said with dignity. "Riddle! Hem Riddle of the Ban ner?" "Yes." He got upon hkx feet, and bis white lips curved In a wry smile. "Just my luck to get here too late. I hope you will be very happy. Miss Palue. Is Itto he very soon?" Amabel reddened from brow to chin, but she held her head haughtily. "It it Is indefinite." she stammered. "Thank you for your good wishes." He was holding her hand tightly nnd looking quite unconscious of that fact. Something small nnd dark hurtled down through the branches and fell at Peter's feet. "What's that?" he gasped. "It's mine!" cried Amabel sharply, "Mr. Riddle often amuses himself by dropping messages down to me from the balloon as he circles above. His poetry Is very good." Peter Ijiuib read tins lines distinctly, ASTCLAXD snd it is to his credit that he did not smile, for the provocation was great: "Sailing- high in heaven's blue, Dritrent.' now 1 think of you. Ar you thinking now of me ' , - Swlnclng 'neath the apple tree? She stood there looking half wist fully, half defiantly, at Peter f.ainb when there sounded steps on the foot path beyond the thick screen of lilacs that hedged the fence. "Hem Riddle's sailing around. What do you make of it. Anna?" The wom an's sharp voice was eagerly curious. .Another voice beyond the hedge an swered. "Pretty doings, I say. to go ballooning the afternoon he's going to get married!" "Then? ain't many girls would wait any longer for Ileni Riddle, lie's been going with Amabel six years, and any one can see that the child' Is tired to death of him and his freakish ways. Rut she's got grit, and she ll stick by her promise." "Is what they said true?" he demand ed hotly. "Kvery word." "Why do you stand It?" he blurted out. "1 was quite fond of him, and I prom ised, you know, and he is always so sorry. I was wondering if we could signal to him now. Ah. here comes mother!" She, clasped her hands and looked apprehensively at the little roly poly gray haired woman hastening to ward the apple tree. "Amabel i'aine!" cried the lady in a shocked tone. "Here on your wedding afternoon entertaining company! Oh. how de do! Peter Lamb, did you say? Little Peter Iimb. bless your hearl! The last time I saw you you were in knee pants and calico blouses. You'll excuse Amabel, won't you? She's go ing to be married at !:.';o, and it's after 5 now. Come. Amabel." She tucked her hand under the girl's arm and smiled, but It was plain thut she was shocked at the unconventional behavior of the bride to be. "Have you seen Hem?" she asked quickly. Amabel pointed upward where the bal loon circled lazily against the blue sky. Mrs. Paine' s eyes harrowed, ami her face Unshed. "Amabel!" she cried, with tears iu her eyes. "If he forgets again 1 shall die of morti lira t ion. I can't stand it." AniHbel's lips trembled ic a smile that was near to tears. Peter I.amb suddenly brought one fist into the palm of his open hand. "Mrs. Paine. If ITem Riddle Isn't on hand at q.-.'IO the wedding can go on just the same if yon will listen to reason." "What do you mean?" demanded the puzzled lady. Peter Ijunb explained volubly, and Amabel added timid words of consent. "If Hem Isn't here at ii:.'it." said Mrs. Paine. "Peter, you can take his place. Come. Amabel!" And she bore the blushing bride away dowu the path to the house. It was deliriously cool nnd pleasant up there in the evening sky. Delicate tints of primrose and pale rose flecked the blue and silver sunset sky. Hem Riddle, sunburned and frowsy with disheveled hair, leaned against the side of the car ami dreamily scanned the green earth below. .Most of the afternoon had been spent In hovering over the vicinity of the Paiue plarc, where a certain white speck In the garden represented Aina liel. An uneasiness had prevailed in his mind the last hour. There was some task unfulfilled, some promise he had not kept. What was It? He gazed dreamily at the sunset and com posed another siem. The balloon drifted a little lower In the unstirred air. There came the tin kling sound of church bells from be low. It was Wednesday evening. He glanced nt the little calendar In the cover of his notebook as he closed It, and his eyes bulged with honor. It was Wednesday, the 17th. aud he was to be married this evening to Amabel. For the third time he had forgotten It. Twice Amabel had forgiven him. Rut now! He looked at his watch. It was half past ti. the hour for Ihe ceremony. He loaned over the car iu an agony of fear. There was mm-h activity about the Paine place. Little groups of peo ple dotted the lawn, some in white. Those were women, and the dark ones were men. He guessed they were gaz ing up at him. waiting for him. Poor Amabel! He snatched at the rope that released the gas, and the balloon dropped earthward. Again lie looked over, aud now he saw that the eople nal streamed Into the house. There I was a carriage before the gate! i At exactly 7 o'clock the balloon land- i ed In the middle of Rbenezer I "si lie's cornfield and destroyed about 100 stalks of prized corn. Within the house Mr. and Mrs. Peter Latub were receiving congratulations aud answering the questions of dazed weddlug guests. Mrs. Paine was ex plaining mutters to Hem Riddle's in dignant relatives aud friends. Ebener.cr Paine, stiffly garbed In his Sunday clothes, creaked across the law n, through the orchard and Into the cornfield. He frowned at the broken corn, and a quizzical look came Into his eyes when he saw Hem Riddle erawllug out from the folds of silk thut enveloped the basket of the lial loon. Hem was disgracefully untidy. "Retter late than never," he suld apologetically. Kbenezer Paine smiled grimly. "You've said that three times. Hem. and I reckon the proverb's worn out. This time "it s better never come at till than he late.' " ' "Rut Amabel." murmured the crest fallen aeronaut, wiping his grimy hands on his coat. "Amabel." remarked the bride's fn ther thoughtfully "why. Amabel wait ed till i :'.'", and then she married an old sweetheart who was Interested enough to be there ou time."

Depend ing, of course, on the artistic setting of the landscape, in my judgment it will add immensely to the city's pros perity. I think a large natatorium would pay well. I lived in Ashland six years, and the idea of piping in those valuable mineral springs often occurred to tne. Respectfully, W. M. GIKS. For a Torpid Liver.
