An Absent-Minded
Bridegroom
By H. LOUIS RAY BOLD

'II7ELL, well, congratulations, old
Vnian!" and Jerry Green cave'
Davis a slap, en the back vtliicb. caused
him te wince, even ns he had an Inward
doubt- of the sincerity of his fellow
hoarder's felicitations. "When Is the
happy event te be?"
"Can't say as te that," returned
Davis. plensnntly enough. "The sooner
the better.!'
'Te be sure, te be Mire. Only, mind
yeuDave," and Jerry shook a was
m Isb finger under the ether's very nose,
"don't get one of your nbhunt-niluded
Wreaks en and forget there Is te be
such, a thing as a wedding when the
joyful day 'comes. That would be tough
en Deris! And count en your fellow
boarders, old top. They'll be en hand,
very man of them!"
The affable Jerry left Davis at the
ext corner, 'and. thelatter proceeded
tore slowly, Yeflectlnif- bitterly' that if
-i.Jie and Deris could only bklp their wed
ding day their ;merringe j would begin
Bucb mere auspicieusly.1 The, ver.v
thought of going through' the 'solemn
ceremony with that bunch of conspira
tors eyeing him nnd nudging each ether
If -he fumbled for the ring or Deris
kesitated ever the premise te obey. Oh,
he ,hated It in anticipation.
Deris, be knew, was of the same mind
s 'himself. But ten years' humble
subservience te her aggressive mint had
Induced In the girl a docile ucciuIem ciilc
In -all'thlngs. It would never have oc
curred te her te combat her rclutlvc's
wishes, even in se' personal a matter as
her own wedding.
Yet that night Deris, with troubled
yes, poured out her heart te Dave as
the two walked down te the moving
pictures, their one escape from the ueI.y
phonograph-ridden parlor.
"It's net the ceremony part or even
the supper I dread, Dave,'' she con
fided. "The crowd will be decent enough
then. It's afterward. I was getting
clean towels out of the closet for Aunt
Fanny as that awful Jerry Green and
.a narrows came down the ball. Tliey
dfdn't knew I wan anywhere around,
but I beard Jerry say that we didn't
atsnd a chance of getting away together.
THere are te be a couple of flivvers
owned by friends of Jerry's at each
end of the street and you are te be
well, kidnapped, and I'm te be taken
te the wrong station, and, eh, Dave,
It'll be just cheap horseplay!"
"Let's chuck the whole thing, dear,"
aald Dave thoughtfully; "slip away and
be married by ourselves."
"I're thought of that, of course,"
confessed Deris. "Only well, uunt
would never consent. I m sure she'd
be mad enough te hang en te my clothes
and all. Yeu knew she Isn't my own
aunt, and she's always cared mere for
the boarders than for me. DIsannelnt-
lng them would make her desperately
angry with the two of us. If I could
enjy get my trunk away first!"
Davis was silent for several moments.
Be suspcitcd the existence of a state of
affairs of which Deris was ignorant.
In the tirtt place, ever since bis arrival
at the bearding house some years age
he bad been an object of fun, If net
contempt, te the "gay deg" young crowd
of clerks which boosted Mrs. Barker's
place as a "really live joint!" Davis
had chosen it because of its low rates
and Its nearness te a branch library,
where se many et his evenlngi were
peat. That trait was especially pro
vocative of criticism that a man would
prefer mulling ever books te a geed,
nappy same of cards or a billiard party
with the ether roomers. The fact that
he was really absent-minded at times
forgetting meal hours or his hat or
aeme equally Important item had fur
alahed further opportunity for their
bafts of ridicule.
But, most vital of all, Davis sus
pected that a very real, enmity toward
him existed en the part of Ed Barrows
and that Deris was the cause. Ed, who
fancied he bad a way with' all ladies,
had tried te philander with Deris, had
had his passing Interest stayed and
lamed by her quiet .indifference, .and
had seen "that absent-minded book
worm", make feed where h'e'had failed.
Yes, Davis felt mi re that Ed would ini
tiate and forward any little scheme et
deviltry te get even. '
-As 'they , reached the theatre' Davis
threw back his shoulders. "Don't
worry, little girl," he whispered ten-
derly. "Just leave everything te me,"
But it must be cenfesbed that during
, the entertainment which followed his
thoughts were tee deepjy .centered en
problem te get bis money's worth
l of the program. ,, , -t
V1r !yllllV HIIUIVI lUCtnvUlltlJB III! Ull-
:,Mrcurrent of excitement was distinctly
thoughtfully excused her from further
duty In the kitchen.
Every one was prompt te the meal
that In, every one except Davis, in
fact, it was well along tewnrd the end
of the meat pic course when the tele
phone behind Jerrv Urcen ranc noisily.
Jerry jumped te answer. Then he hung ,
up me receiver, neuuieu up in laugnicr,
slapped his thigh and all but choked.
"That bird Davis will be the death of
me ! He's clean gene and forgotten It's
hi wedding day. Says te expect him in
about an hour or se te take Deris te
the mevlcs.c He's eating at n quick
lunch re's te step at the library I"
There was utter silence. Then te a
man the boarders laughed, only sober
ing slightly when they saw Deris, face
bowed in her hands, rise and leave the
room. Behind her lingers hid a trem
ulous smile.
Thus It was that while the crowd
trnltpri tnr 1)nvn nml Mrs. Tlnrknr nl
Icnilcd te the expressman, Deris slipped
out and met her bridegroom nt the cor
ner. A few minutes later, lit n quiet
little parsonage uptown, a perfectly
satisfied couple said "1 de" and "I
will" before only four spectators the
minister, his wife, his daughter and the
pnrtenage cat.

The gracst danger arose from the
proximity te the flames of the great
