now, he said to himself, Joachim's com
fort la asst. ed.
"Tea," su.J Miss Abigail In as low
tone as she could well make him bear.
for she bad beard some one 1 1 the ball,
"I accept, Mr. Melville, but I am afraid
I am not worthy the trust you have In
me.'
"Oh. yea," replied Mr. MelvlUe; "I
will trust you. I would trust you with
anything, Miss Abigail with myself
even," be added, little knowing bow his
words were applied.
"Tbe 28tb." said Mr. MelvlUe, settling
back in his chair and looking at Miss
Abigail.
"Oh, dear, she said. "So soon as
that? Well, I will try and be ready.'
"And Joachim must not know I am
going away. It would break bis heart
You can bring him down stairs after I
leave In tbe morning.'
Yes," said Miss Abigail, "I will see
to the cat," but she looked surprised,
Why should Mr. MelvlUe mention tbe
cat at sucb a time?
"And now." said Mr. MelvlUe,
want to leave all arrangements In your
care.
Miss Abigail felt that she was per
fectly capable of attending to every
thing, but It did not seem exactly tbe
proper thing for her to do. "Do yoo
mean that I shall attend to every
thing?" she shouted through tbe trim
pet,
"Yes." he replied. "I leave all In
your bands, as I explained to yon In
my note.
"Very well." said Miss Abigail. 1
wiU do tbe best I can."
"And you are sure, dear Miss Abi
gail, that you will not regret it? It will
be very inconvenient for you." ,
Miss Abigail blushed, but replied,
"Oh. not at all." She was afraid that
there might be some one In the baU
listening, so she rose to terminate the
Interview, and Just then some one cams
In.
Sir. Melville was very busy for the
next two weeks, and If Miss Abigail
herself had not been bo busy with mak
lug all the arrangements for the wed
ding she might have thought that be
wasn't a very ardent lover,
Wben Miss Abigail bad occasion to
ask questions In regard to tbe cere
mony, which was only once or twice,
she bad to wait nntil every one was
out of tbe dining room to get a chance
to speak to blm. lie bad expressly
stated tbat she was to attend to every
thing. It vans to be a quiet wedding.
with ouly Mrs. Jenkins and Mr. Smith-
Jones and Potter present, and Mra.
Jenkins was to bore a luneb for them
afterward.
She bad asked blm if 8 o'clock in tbe
afternoon would answer and if It should
occur at St. James, Piccadilly. He had
repeated the words James, riccaaiuy.
and said yes, wondering wny aiiss adi-i
gall referred to bis brother's business
in I'lccadilly.
Mr. Smltb-Jonea was to be best man.
In due course or time the itn ar-
rived. Miss Abigail s weaning aay.
After Mr. Melville had departed for the
city Joachim and all bis belongings
were, according to Instructions, car-
ried down to Miss Manning's room.
Now, It happened that on reaching
tbe city Mr. Melville round there waai
not much for him to do the last day,
so he returned early to the bouse, de-
termlned to have a nice rest until it
was time for the night train to Dover,
It being a warm day, and be having
had a hearty lunch. It happened tbat
wben Mr. Smith-Jones, dressed and
ready for the momentous occasion,
knocked at the door at z o'clock, ana
no amount of knocking and pounding
having the least effect, had opened the
door, bad found the nriuegroom elect
fast asleep In a chair, with his feet
stretcher! comfortably in another, ana
handkerchief over bis bead to keep
on tue nies.
"Scandalousl" sutd Smltb-Jonea to
himself, who Imagined that Mr. Mel-
vine nad Decn portaging or something
stronger thnn cold tea. "Wake up, I
aieiriuei no yoo Know wnai lime re isr
Yoo will te late for the wedding!" be I
shouted.
W eililing." repeated Mr. MelvlUe.
Then seeing Mr. Smltb-Jonea waa In
full dress a smile broke over his couo-
tenance.
"Oh. you sly dog." he said. "And so'
you are going to be married and want
me to assist?" Mr. Smith Jones stared j
"What a joker yoo are, MelvlUe!
But come, hurry np. or you will not be
ready In time."
"I was never at a wedding."
Melville, "snd do not know Just
said
vbat
you want me to do."
"Never mind," replied 8mitb-Jones.
"Yoo put yourself entirely In my hands.
I will tell yoo what to da Do you un
derstand?" be shouted. "You are to do
Just wluit I show you. I will see that
yoo get through all right"
At last Mr. Melville was ready, and
they descended to the dining room,
where Mrs. Jenkins and Mlaa Abigail
were waiting. As five could not ride
In one rrtrristre. It was thought best,

other. After they got started Mr. Mel
ville discovered tbat be bad left bis
ear trumpet.
"Do I nee1 a horn 7" be asked.
"A wbatr asked Smltb-Jonea. Then.
thinking that be uieaci a wbiaky born,
be said, "No, 1 don't think yon need
aflotner."
"My born my trumpet, mean,'
aald Melville.
"No," aald Smltb-Jonea, "yoo do not
need one. You do only Just wbat I
bow you."
At tbe church door all alighted,
wber a small group was waiting for
the wedding purty
Mr. Melville seemed daaed and did
not know wbat to do nntil bis mentor
stepped np and put Miss Abigail's arm
In bla. Mr. Smith-Jones went on ahead
as a sort of usher, and Mrs. Jenkins, on
the arm of Mr. Potter, followed.
Tbe church was so dark, coming In
from the sunlight, that Mr. Melville
could not at tlret sea anything. Ha
thought to himself It must tie natural
for the best man to tuke In the bride,
At tbe altar tbe minister, an old and
deaf man, was already waiting. He
was In a great hurry to get through,
so as to take a train' for the country,
snd began tbe service before tbe wed
ding party knew wh.-.t they were about.
Poor Melville did nut notice anything
jntll Smith-Jones was poking at Ills
elbow and finally put Melville's band
Into Miss Abigail's, and Bmltb-Jonea,
who had tbe ring, was also obliged to
put that on the bride's finger. Then
they were all bustled Into the vestry to
sign the register, where the old clergy
man was already out of bis surplice
nd tbe door at tbe same time.
As they turned to leave Smltb-Jonea
txclaimed: "If tbe man hasn't signed
as witness! Where la heT" For tbe
bridegroom bad disappeared.
He was out In tbe church examining
some of the ancient tablets, while tbe
-what Is the matter, mv dear ChrUto-
vhctt" atcsaia.
blushing bride was waiting In a eorner
of the vestry. Mrs. Jenkins and Mr.
potter were looking amazed, whlla the
perspiration was beginning to ran down
poor 8mlth-Jones' face.
"It la my fault." be aald. "Itordhlra
I would show him what be must do."
And. grasping Melville's arm. be hur
ried blm back to the vestry, where
again be was attached to his bride. In
some way they au got out Into tbe
street, wben presently Mr. Melville
found himself alone In a carriage with
Bliss Abigail. Then he began to be
alarmed and turned first white and
then red. The bride was frightened.
"What Is tbe matter, my dear Chrta-
topberT" she said, for now tbat they
were married she considered It proper
to address blm by his Christian name.
Mr. Melville gasped. She bad called
him Christopher) Wbat bad happened?
was be mad? Had be lost his reason?
"I am afraid, madam," be said, "that
some dreadful mistake baa happened.'
"Dreadful mistake?" she replied.
-v nat ao yoo mean, sir? You are
marrledr she shouted above the roar
of the street and noise of the carriage.
"MarrtedT" be said. "Impossible!"
"Why, Mr. MelvlUe, you proposed.
and I accepted.
"When did I propose, madam?"
"Why. two weeks ago In the dlnlna?
room at Mrs. Jenkins'."
" Mr. MelvlUe happened to think of the
note he had written. Could that have
anything to do with tbe matter?
"You received my note?" he asked,
Miss Abigail an Id no and shook her
bend very decidedly. Mr. MelvUle
sank back into the carriage. It all
came to him at onee- how Misa Abigail
bad misunderstood blui and. be not
bearing her replies, she had thought be
proposed.
Aqd now they were married What
a dreadful situation: Wlmt should be
do? And here they were back at the
bouse, and Joachim, the unwitting
author of all the trouble, waa sitting
oo tbe top step, having escaped from
Miss Abigail's room.
Smltb-Jonea and Potter wera aston
ished to see MelvlUe Jump out of the
carriage and. leaving his bride, rush up
tbe steps swesrlng audibly at his pet
and kicking tbe poor cat down the
steps.

Cured sf Chronic Dlarrheea After
Thirty Years of Suffering.
"I suffered for thirty years with
diarrhoea ar d thought I was past be
ing cured," says John S, Halloway,
of French Bamp, Miss. "I had
spent so much time and money and
suffered so much that I had given up
all hoiM3s of recovery, I was so
feeble from the effects of tbe diar
rhoea that I could do no kind of lab
or, could not even travel, but by ac
ident I was permitted to find bot
tle of Cbamberlaiu'a Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy and after
taking several bottles I am entirely
cured of that trouble, I am so pleas-
d with the result that I am anxious
that it be in reach of all who suffer
as I hive." For sale by Delta drug

Anarchists should be eradicated.
"The President has been shot."
This was the word flashed over the
wires today, casting a gloom over
the nation. The old story, the work
of a murderous anarehlt-t. Every
organization and every Individual
expressing sympathy with anarchists
should be banished from a land that
