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."

Sierra Madre, Cal., May 15, 1914.
Editor Tidings: I think the people
of Ashland are hitting the nail
squarely on the head by having the
springs piped In to the city. 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,

lets olt and on for the past six years
