NOT so long ago two young people we
all know were married, with the
usual assurance that no one could possibly
spot them, as bride and groom. They left
for their honeymoon, and If we were to
believe their story it would seem that, con
trary to an expectations, they had suc
ceeded in keeping It a secret. Unfortunate
iy for them, however, a' little bird told me
something that happened, and I am going
to pass it on as a warning to future brides
knd grooms who wish to save themselves
tt'few laughs from the cruel public.
With all the nonchalance (n the world
Wdd the little bird to me) they walked Into
the hotel lobby and. barring the fact that
their baggage looked suspiciously new, they
didn't attract particular attention, for the
lace was crowded. The girl bat herself
screetly In the corner, while hubby ad-
eed with much dignity to the desk and
iked the fresh-looking clerk for the rooms
a had engaged, and then lust to show how
impletely he was at his ease he took up
pen and signed his name boldly and with
flourish, John Smith, Philadelphia, then
rned to go with a world-weary sigh!
.VPardon me, but haven't you forgotten
thing?" said the fresh-looking clerk.
1 think not," said the groom, thougn
began to clutch at his heart.
YWell, then, haven' you forgotten some
V was the Insinuating query.
In a flash It came over the .other. He
Jnly had forgotten "some one," and
rising color and no assurance what-
ver he took up the pen and hastily
bblod "and wife" after his own name.
K
that meanest of mean clerks had the
