Indeed, there aeemed to be but one destination which a self-respect I tig citizen of Devondale might properly have In mind ; and already many of the elect had reached this objective and had comfortably passed through Ita wide doors, down Its aisles, and Into Its cushioned pews It was an Interested, good-humored and highly observant crowd, pressing forward as each automobile ap proached. to watch with unashamed curiosity the guests who alighted and made their way along the strip of car pet stretching from curbstone to church. Devondale's leading citizens were here, and the spectators knew them all. from those high personages who were presidents of local banks down to little Jimmy Harrlgan. who was Barbara Devon's favorite raddle at the Country ctuh. Cnltke most of his fellow guesta. Jim m y arrived on fo o t; but the crowd saw his unostentatious advent and greeted him with envious badinage. “HI. dere, Chimmle. where's yer evenin’ soot?" one acquaintance de sired to know. And a second re marked solicitously, “De c'rect ting. < 'hlmmie. is t' hold yer hat to yer heart as y’ goes in !” Jimmy made no reply to these pleas antries. The occasion was too big and too novel for that. He merely grinned, presented his card of admis sion In a paw washed clean only in spots, and accepted with equal equa nlmlty th» piercing gaze of the usher anil the rear seat to which that out raged youth austerely conducted him. “There, round-eyed Jimmy glared about him. He had never been Inside of St. Giles' before. It was quite possible that he would never And him self inside o f It again. He took In the beauty of the great church; Ita blaze of lights: Its masses of flowers; Its whisistring, waiting throng; the broad white ribbon that set apart cer tain front pews for the bride’s s p e c i a l friends, Including a party from New York. Jimmy knew all about those frlends and all about this wedding. Hia grimy little ears were ceaselessly opeti to the talk of the town, and for weeks past the town had talked of nothing but the Devons and Barbara Devon's approaching wedding. In the pew Just In front of Jimmy, Mrs. Arthur I.ytton. a lady be recog nized as a ubiquitous member of the Country club, was giving a few Inti mate details of Miss Devon's life to her companion, who evidently was a newcomer to the city. “ You see," Mrs. I.ytton waa murmur ing, “this Is really the moat Impor tant wedding we've ever had her«.
