Mrs. Blages did not an- swer. He wistled louder. Still no an- swer. “f you are gone, I'm glad,” he said. “Cheer me by not replying.” But no such cheer was in store for him. Mrs. Blases noiselessly opened the window and whispered: “Sh! Be careful! Did you get my hat?” “Not yet,” the Count told her. “Dey ' haff to make him. I vouldn't trust | dot Daffle voman.

I go und vatch for der messencher mit der hat.” The Count strolled away, while she closed her window. A young couple came walking slow- ly through the flower garden. It was Pigeon and Carolyn. The twilight spell had been cast upon them. Arm in arm, silently they strolled until they neared the bench. Suddenly Pigeon eaid: “Let's sit down here. [I've got to see Harry through his racket, you know"—evidently continuing a conver- sation which had lapsed some mo- ments before—"but after that—" He looked down into Carolyn's eyes. “After that?” she asked, softly. For Carolyn had all a woman's intul- tion, in spite of her young years, and she diagnosed the symptoms of an ap- proaching proposal. She did not in- tend to accept him, but no woman will allow a proposal to get away from ber, to & woman are as the scalps the Indian brave ties to his war belt. “After that,” sald Pigeon, beginning to sit down, “I can look after my owa affairs. And [—" An ominous, ripping sound came. Mrs. Blases was begianing to make her rope, but the youmg couple, of ocourse, knew nothing of that. Pigeon straightened up with a jerk and tried to look unconscious. He did not know what had given away. Carolyn tried to smooth over his embarrassment by saying: “Isn't it a lovely evening?” Then she began to sink gracefully upon the seat, when an even more ominous ripping sound was heard. Carolyn abandoned her project with due and proper suddenness, while Pigeon mopped his brow, and said, in flustered tones that he tried to make sound matter-of-course: “I thought earlier today that we might have some rain.” He lifted his foot to rest it careless- ly upon the bench, not caring to try to eit down any more, but with the movement came a terrific rip as though something had torn loose forever. He dropped his foot and tried to whistle a popular air. Carolyn looked the other way and became nervous. - “I can’t do a thing with my hair to- |& night,” she observed, lifting her arms | to pat It into shape. R-r-r-rip!
