is somewhat nervously thinking
over the tffect of his trial marriage
proposition made some two weeks
ago. Schultz has received several

realizes he has the chance, that he
is af&icted with cold feet. Schultz
isn’ t saying a word.

man who made the trial marriage
proposal was known, T he Progress

young women, anxious to discover
whether there was a good looking
bachelor running loose in the E sta
