Arriving there they would cros America and grad'.ially worktlu-ir way around the world and hack lo London iu a year or two. Jorge Vi't hley was rii '.iand could atrnrii this kind of a wedding tour. In olik-n time the parei.ls of Tilly Markham would have liex-n more anx ious that their daughter should marry (Jeorge Weliley rather than the jMirt'r hut of course more moral young ni::in Tom i'.mtry. Hut times had changed, and it was the daughters that now look ed for money with their lovers. The girl admitted to herself that she liked Tom ltautry liest, hut he certainly- had treated her very liadly. They had an appointment for a pic nic up the river, hut without a word Tom had g'tu away, and worse still, he had seut no explanti.ui or excuso for his desertion. Si Tilly thought she would teach him a life-long lesson, and knowing well that her parents would oppos the match, and esccially its hurried con clusion, she told (ieorge Wehley if he would arrange for ihe sjKi-ial license tt LiverpiHil chc would meet him at Hus ton station on the -7th and together they would journey to the seaport towii, lo married and sail for America on thi? sth in the powerful steamship Krratie. Tilly concluded it was U tter to Ik marrki! in Liverp.i-.il than in London as there would In- h-ss chance of the oca pade Ix-ing found out until such time as they chose to disclose it. Tilly agreed that they would write letters to all inni-erncd while on the voyage from Liverpiml to (J'leonstown, and mail them there when there would Ik? nothing hut the I road Atlantic lie tween them and New York. Tilly luvl the postman as she was going onto' the house that morning, and he handed her a handle of letters. She had no time to read them then nor in the cah, for there was narely time to reach the station, where she found Mr. Wchlcy impatiently awaiting her. He had strongly advised her to tiring nothing with her. Whatever was re quired could Ik? hought at LivcrjHKil. "I was very much afraid we should miss the train," he said, as he hurried h.T out of the cah. "I have reserved tt compartment." "There's another train isn't there?" sh? asked. "Oil, certainly, hut a railway station isn't the pleasantest phuv iu the world to wait, and since I left my hotel I seoui to have met every friend I have iu Loudon, .and all wanting to know where I am going." "And of course you told them," said Tilly. The young man laughed as he held open the ihxirof the railway carriage for her to enter. Heuiekly followed, and a moment after the 10:10a. m. train slid out of the great station and hegan its northern journey. Tilly sat in her corner hy the window and carelessly turned over the letters in her hand. Most of them were from girl friends, hut on the envelope of one she recognized the tine, hold hand writing of Tom I'antry. She stole a furtive glanced at Wehley as she tore open the envelop;, hut he wis a!rsrled in his morning pajKT n w that his mind was at rest and they were fairly oil. The letter ran as follows : "Dkak Miss Maukham : I wastin cxjicctedly called away from London more than a week ago hy the sudden ilhusss of my uncle, Mr John Trcllyan. lcfore departing for Trcllyan Hall I wrote a letter to you explaining why I i hi Id not he at tne picnic up tne river. Through my own stupidity and the hurry of getting away, I find I left your" letter on my tahle'in my rooms in Temple, I hail expected a letter from you while at Trcllyan Hall and when it did not come 1 was greatly disaji p lintcd. I found on my return this morning, as I said, my own letter which was not posted, so of course you did not receive it. Will you forgive me, therefore, for hreaking an engage ment with you and your friends without explanation? And may 1 call this evening, as I have something of very great importance (to myself, at least) to say to you? I will remain all day in my chamU-rs at the Temple await ing your answer with some anxiety." He signed himself "Yours very tru ly, Tom Itantry," and then added iu a ostscript, as if an afterthought : "I should have told you that my un cle died two days ago, which makes a great deal of difference in my plan of life, as perhaps you are aware." Tilly Markham was a cautious young woman and always cansidered that a SO ESTABLISHED 1827 three in the hush. She looked at (Jeorge Wehley and he smiled across at her. "Where do we stop first?" die ask ct!. "Willcsden Junction, I helicvo, and we ought to he there now." "How long do we stop?" "Only a few minutes." "!. you think you could get nc half a dozen telegraph hlanks while we are stopping there?'' "Oh, I don't nnii to go out for them," said Wehley, "I always carry plenty of them with me and sixpenny stamps, also." As he said this Iu r.Mehed d wn a h.tg front the rack over his head, open- til it, and handed Tilly a iiumher of already stamicil telegraph firms. When the train slow ed up at Willes den she said : '!. get out, George, and find me a tint.! hook, for I want to know how many times this train stops he fore we reach Liverpool." Wehley had no sooner disapc.irel than the young lady called the guard to her. "Where is the next stop, guard ?" she asked. "At lilctchley, miss." "I low long In-fore we reach there?" "We are timed at HIetchley at 11:1V She had already written her telegram, all hut the instructions where to reach her. It ran: "Tom Uantry, Coke-upon Littleton Chambers, Temple. What do you w ish to see me for this evening? Answer ISIctchlcy station, on hoard the Liver liool express. Tilly. "Can you send this o?X for me at oiicc."' she asked tne guard, shrining it with a sovereign into his hand. "Certainly, miss," and he was mov ing away when Tilly ta'nl : "I may have an answer to this when we reach lilctchley station. Will you see that I get it ijuickly V" "Certainly, certainly, miss." Just as the train was leaving (Jeorge Wehley sprang into the compartment with the train lmck iu his hand. Tilly oK'iied it and found the muuU rof stop the train made hetwecn London itid Liverpool. When she readied the station she said : 'Oh, CScorge, I wish you would get me a cup of tea." "I don't think there is a refreshment room h- re," he said, duhiotisly, "hut I'll go end see." "I o, plea.'." The next moment the guard came up. "Here's your telegram, miss," he said. She rapidiy tore open the c:ivelije and read : "The nmtt'T or which I wish to speak to you is imiheible lo explain in a telegram. When do you return ?" She took another of the telegraph forms and rapidly wrote: "If you hav anything to tell me, now is the time to tell it. I dot not know when I shall return to London." Then turning to the guard she ask ed : "Where do we stop next?" "At Itughy, miss; 11 :?.." She quickly wrote whereto telegraph her, us she saw (Jeorge approaehing and added hurriedly to the piard, as she thru.-t her message into his hand : "Iiring me the answer when we get to Itugl.y." ( Jeorge swung himself into the com partment, saying : "Just as I thought, not a blessed thing to cat here, but we wait ten min utes at the next stop, and I may Iv able to gi t you anything yon wish. I say," he added, "you're not telegraph ing to your friends aliout this, are you?'' "Oh, not aliout this," she replied, quietly. "I am only sending some nec essary telegrams, that is all." "You know if you are in a hurry," he said, "we can send all the telegrams you want from ( Jueeiistow n just as well as from here or Livcrjvool." "Oh, I know that," answered Tilly, demurely. "I hope I know enough to send messages only where they ought to go, so don't lie afraid." (Jeorge laughed, for he was a good natured fellow, and the train six.il on towards Liverpool. When it slowed up at Ittighy station Tilly leaned atlccl innately over toward the young man and said : "Now, (Jeorge, you go over to the re freshment room and cat all you have au appetite for. I don't think I care for anything until we reach LiverjKiol." "May I not bring you a cup of tea?" asked (Jeorge, anxiously. "Oh, certainly, certainly, if you bring it two minutes ln-fore the train is oil." Another man might have thought this request a rather singular one, hut (Jeorge had no brains to spare, else he would not have liven on this eloping expedition, so he thought nothing of it but jumped out as soon as the train came to a standstill. The guard soon eanu to the compart: m 'nt with a telegram iu his hand. Tilly tore it ojx-n and read : "I'tterly impossible to telegraph what I wish to say to you. Tell me where you are staying at Liverp ml and I will leave by the first train and meet you there." Tilly, with a sniff- of impatience, seized another of the stamped forms and rapidly wrote : "I may sail to-morrow with some friends for America. There is no chance of you seeing me if you docome; therefore, whatever you have to say to iiu say is now ; it is your hist chance. Telegraph meat" She looked inquiringly at the guard, who promptly answered : Next stop, Creve, We reach there at liiV She gave the guard a handful of mon ey to pay for the extra wording of this dispatch. That good man was rapidly lieeoming rich. He sighed as he re mcmhurcd that the next stop w as the last liefore reaching Liverpool. He wished that he was on a train for Scot land with such a passenger aboard, "Here is your tea, my dear," said (ieorge, as he came gingerly along with it in hi hand. The girl drank it with many expressions of gratitude towards her lover. "Well the next stop is Creve, and af ter that Liverpool," he said, as he MAHCIC 20, 1805. paper hoy to take back to the refresh ment room. "S i the guard tells m ," replied Til ly sweetly. At Creve the guard cim? to her with the final telegram. Its wording was terse and to the point. It ran : "I love you. Will you he my wife?" "Lend me anotherof t'.iosk blanks?" she said to i Jeorg , "I haven't another, hut you can get them at the telegraph oHiee." The train was moving o!!, so .-he siid: "Never mind, I can send the tch gram from Liwrpn!. Tiiey reached the t r.niiius in an hour. Turning to the guard, Tilly said : "Would you mind taking my things to the telegraph oilie.j fir m??'' And to ( Jeorg" she ad led : "You wait here until I send for you." When they reaehed the telegraph of fice Tilly turned and said quickly to the guard : "At what hour does the next train leave for Indon ?" "On this line then is not one until LoObut you can get one on the Mid land at 3." Tilly took a last telegraph blank and wrote : "Certainly. Why couldn't you have said so at first and saved me all this telegraphing? I return to Loudon hn mcdiatcly. Call and sv me to-morrow.' This heing sent oil she turned to tin man who had been lu-r friend ail the way through. "Now," she said, "take me to the Midland train." As the guard hesitat ed, she added : "I am going to give you C10." The guard ji-.-rsonally c inducted her to an empty compartment of the Lon don trai.i. She scribbled a i:"te to Wehley on the Imck of a telegraph blank. The note read : "I :..

"There,'' said Tilly, giving the i, te to the guard with the parting tip, "lake that to the young man who is guarding his luggage. !o:i't tell him where I have gone, nor give hun any information. He will o!l'er you much money, of cour.se, because he has plen ty. Take the money, nod lvl him I have gone to the country. Tell him anything you like, only imt where 1 have really gone." All of which went to show that Tilly had no conscience. The guard touched his (-sn ar.iliK part'il. After the Loudon train had steamed away fr i:u its station the guard hand ed (J. urge the note. He did not get the money he ex peeled. A look ( re lief passed over the young fellow's f;:-e, and he swore a little. Then he whist led, and said to himself more than to the expectant guard : "Sensible girl ; I was gelling a little tired of it m vself." ' .7 1', c . Ezp3rieac3 Teaches.

"Would you advise me to go into debt to get an e l.icatioa?" the young man asked. "Well, that d -p 'u Is o:i th? Kn- of c induct you are disposed to pursue.

While spending his summer vacation at Skagg's Springs, one of his greatest friends was a fellow UianU r, a little girl about s years old. Tire two were ciu-tant companions and the child daily accompanied the clergyman on his excur-ions in the ncigh'.iorh'iod. One evening the little girl remarked to her fellow diners : " I like gain. out with Mr. Dodson." " Why ?" queried a stranger, hoping t i draw the child out. " P.eca-'.se he has n morals," was tiie startling reply. When the summer Uwirdcrs had re cover.il their equanimity they institut ed an investigation, the upshot of which was the discovery that the young maiden possess-ed an insatiable craving for stories. The desire was frequently gratified by Mr. D.nLson, but, unlike the anecdotes of the child's mother, the minister' tales were never ointcd with a moral for the youngster's gov ernment. oi Vit;r i.
