U It E II BYSOI'SId: Jame o tit ha had a very bad vieddmg day. lit ha dectded h does Hut uant to marry Jane Northrup after oil tor on thing and hi tat ua not Improved by the petty malic 01 Uabel Webeter in keeping candle off the altar, and the hysterical re tentmtnt that caused in the family et hie bride. But after the cere mony, at the wedding eupper. Jamr decide he ie very happy after all Chapter 27 HONEYMOON THERE was but one imallest blot on tha bllBsfulnesa of the honey moon. That cams toward the end after the arrival of a certain Louli Bradford of New York City. It was not because Mr. Bradford was so perfectly poised and polished and manicured or because be made such apt remarks or wore sucb beau tifully tailored clothes or en be cause bis balr lay so gloriously sleek. No, it was his lordly assurance In the presence of the waiters that James envied and Jane desired to have James emulate. It the waiters bad happened by any chance to have been of African descent then Mr. Bradford mlpht have envied the brilliant ease with which Mr. Stlmson handled thorn, but at this particular hotel, the waiters, unfortunately, were as white as their hearts were black and they spoke a strange and unknown lingo that Mr. Bradford understood and James didn't. Both the head waiter and his min ions took one look at James, labeled blm, docketed him, despised and neglected him thereafter. James' tips were quite as lavish as those of Mr. Bradford, but he got only the most obscure Ill-placed tables, the most transitory service. This naturally enough Irritated Jane, the loveliest and one of tbe best-dressed young women In the hotel. She kept urging her husband to assert himself and copy Mr. Brad ford's masterful ways. James, alas, could do no better than to bribe the head waiter by a gift of ten dollars Into promising better tables In tho future a promise sometimes ful Oiled and sometimes not. Jane's re marks when they were not, made James tingle all over with shame. "You like masterfulness In a man?" be asked once, orumbllng his bread In nervous fingers. "Yos, of course, to a certain de gree. Every woman does," said Jane Impatiently. "Then 1 don't altogether see, If you admire that sort, how you ever hap I e n e d to marry me," answered lames miserably. "I'm not masterful, t never was, I never will be. Didn't you know that until now?" "You can be It you'll Just assert pourself a little and don't let every one walk over you who wants to," aid Jane a little uneasily. "It's only a question of making up your mind to bo." "I think there Is more to It than that." Bomeone came up to their table then to speak to Jane, and the sub ject was dropped. James returned from his honey moon a thoroughly happy but slight ly puzzled young man with a deter mination to assert himself more fre quently In the future and to take up on the first possible occasion the tudy ot the art of maaterfulness and to cultivate on the side a darkly sinister gleam In his eyes. A FEW days after the return ot Mr. and Mrs. James Brewster Stlmson III from their honeymoon and while they were still happily engaged In what Is callod In New Concord. "Bottling down," Judge Holcomb dropped In to see Miss Julia Pratt. The Judge had spent the previous evening with the Roger Bennetts and while tbore had overheard Lu orotla Bennett and some ot ber young crowd laughing over the ac count ot the Stlmson wedding In tbe Dally Globe. It bad been written up In the society reporter's best and most flowery style, but what excited the dorlsion of the young people was the line whlcb spoke of the bride groom leading the bride to the altar. They had Insisted that it should have been revorsod to read, "When the bride led the bridegroom." "Aud they were right," com mented the Judge. "Jane cortotnly did all the chasing, but she landed James as neat as you please. And now tho poor . . ." "Do you think It's nice to talk about a sweet pretty girl like Jane Northrup sume as if she was some sort of a she-hyuna?" interrupted Miss Julia Indignantly. "I haven't said a word against lane except to admire the clever ray she went after James and ZEPHYR SETS RECORD 10 SI. PAUL 8T. PAUL, Minn .

T RICHES I caught him. There's nothing new about that. Women have been drag ging men to tbe altar and marrying them in spite of their screams ever since the days ot the cave men." "It's a pity all you men can't be locked up in glass cases," sniffed Miss Julia. "Now, .Miss Julia," said the Judge pleasantly, "you know more in a minute than all the women In this town In a million years and you needn't try to pretend to me that James ever so much as looked In Jane's direction until she made up her mind she wanted blm to. It's Thackeray, Isn't It, who says that any woman, unless she has an actual bump on her back, can marry any man she picks out, easy aa easy. Why, I believe you put Jane up to marrying James In tbe first place though 1 don't expect you'll ever ad mit It" "I wouldn't say I did and I wouldn't say I didn't," snapped Miss Julia rocking vigorously back and forth, "but I do say that young folka don't know their own minds to. speak of, and it is a blessed good thing for a flibbertigibbet like James to marry a sensible practical girl like Jane." "I suppose Jane didn't know ber own mind." "Well, for pity's sake, what do you want for your proclouB James? It's my opinion that he could have looked a lot farther and fared a lot worse. It wasn't so very long ago I hoard you saying that Jane Northrup was the best-looking girl In this county and a catch fur any man. Now what have you got against her? I believe you're jealous." "C'lE looks too much like her mother," said the old man medi tatively, "and I don't like the set of that woman's Jaw. Jane's fairly plump now and pink and white and her eyes are so bright and sparkling that, like an old fool, it never oc curred to me to look at her jaw. But only yesterday 1 saw hor walking up the street with Jntnes and It came to me all ot a sudden that she was ber mother over ogalu, Jaw and all." "Mrs. Northrup Is an awful hard worker and them that does the work generally gets the running of things. I guess you men lot old Bill Clancy run the Bachelors' Club year In and year out and never say boo your selves. And you mark my words. If James hadn't married Jane he would have married that flighty little Le-. lie Harris. I suppose you would have liked that better?" "I don't know. Leslie's sweet as a peach and 1 wouldn't mind marrying hor myself, but 1 don't like tbe breed. I reckon that I'm as hard to suit as a fussy old rooster with one chicken. But, Miss Julia, if you could have honrd. JameB speak to the Republi can convention in Topclca last month your eyos would have popped out of your head. They cheered him for a quarter of an hour when he got through and him Just twenty-four. Thoy called him silver tongued but bo's more thnn that" "You think he's made of pure gold, don't you?" Jibed Miss Julia good naturedly. ( "Well, I don't know. He's made of something protty Uue. But he's tem peramental as a young colt that hasn't been hitched. Do you know that that boy remombera every man be moots and hfa name and where he met him? Presidents have gone Into the White House for less. What ho lacks Is conceit JUBt natural evoryday conceit such as every young pup ot his age Is bursting with. Miss Julia, nro you sure Jane knows how to handle him right?" Miss Julia was vory sure and grad ually convinced the Judge. Later the two old gossips talked of Leslie Harris. "Socms to me I don't see Sam Flotcher cluttering up hor side porch as much as he did," said the Judge. "No, 1 don't bollove ho does, come to think of It. But Bud Howard Is thore a lot and I like him much bet tor than 1 do that uppoty Sara Flotchor. Losllo never lacks beaux. 1 do believe that if thore were eighty girls In this town and one man thai Lesllo would have him." "You don't suppose she cared much about James, do you?" "No-o," said Miss Julia reluctant ly. Some way sho alwnys folt s vagui uncomfortable sense ot guilt when she thought ot Lesllo, "She seemi Just as choerful and happy as ever ond I've heard her any a hundred times If I've heard her say It once that James and Jnno wero made for each othor." What Miss Julia did not admit was that It had occurred to her frequent ly of late that she did not hear Les lie's contagious rippling laugh as often as she had In tho past. fCopyrioht ISJJ Uateel Tt.
