But I'll go home a few minutes earlier to- night to make up for it. Is that a new gown—and that rose in your hair! You're certainly a dream! I have got to have another kiss. Whom do ! hear in the parlor?” “That's Mr. and Mrs. Cawsworthy and a niece of theirs and old Mrs. Dwine. I want you to meet them. Come in.” “Hold on a minute!” “What's the matter?” “It was a week ago tonight that 1 proposed to you and was accepted, wasn't 1t?” “Yes, silly. Why?” “And the next evening you had a family reunion when I called.” “Yes. Of course, I wanted you to meet all my relatives.” “Of course. And the next night when I called I found a bunch of your old school friends holding down the furniture. And I had to go home with a girl who lived out, as it seemed, & little way beyond the place where the sun sets.” “Well, I wanted you to meet my old friends. I don't see—" “And the next night the minister of your church was here with his fam- ily.

Flowers to Match “What color is your gown, Dell?” asked Bob Gaines, eagerly. Dell considered. “Green,” she said, solemnly, and Bob knew that the filmy creation she would wear to the Datters' masked ball would be yellow. It was Dell's way nowadays to tease him in this manner. They were both very young, and Bob was very much in love. “Green," repeated Bob, just as if he believed it. “Then you will want to wear white flowers, eh? What's the matter with lily of the valley?” Dell shook her sunny head. “They’re too much like bridal bouquets,” she said, flippantly, “You con't seem to have much re. spect for bridal bouquets,” he drawled. “I thought girls were rather keen about that sort of thing.” “Did you?” asked Dell sweetly. .| “When you are older, by dear Bobby, you will have met a number of girls and then you will realize that not all of them are like Pussy Datter.” “What's the matter with Pussy Datter?” demanded Bob. “I'm sure I don't know! It must be because she has been a bridesmaid 80 many times that makes her posi- tively silly about weddings.” “I thought all girls were that way,” | growled Bob. “Perhaps your acquaintance is lim- ited. There's Pussy, who is fond of weddings, and there's me.” “And you are not?” “Dear me, no!” Bob frowned. any bridal flowers to wear with your green perhaps a few yards of smilax might answer,” he sald, glumly. Dell laughed gayly. “I'd feel like a chandelier decorated for a wedding,” she declared. “What shall it be?” “Violets.” said Dell. “Very well. But remember, Dell, some day I shall send you lilies of the valley—and you'll be glad to wear them!" declared Mr. Gaines, “Well!" crled Dell a little breath. | lessly after he had gone, the boy thinking of?” Bob stopped at the florists and or- dered violets. As he went out of the shop he picked up a small booklet from the counter and idly scanned it “What 18 | a8 he rode uptown. It was a book for the sentimentalist. In it were get forth the fourteen im- portant wedding anniversaries, from cotton to diamond. Also birth-month flowers and their expression. Bob Gaines read that lily-of-the.val- ley meant success in love. “Violets mean courage.” He wondered if Dell know that, too. Some girls might, it they were ro- | mantie, “If violets signify courage—she sug- gested violets, and she must have meant to encourage me.” he reasoned. That evening he called her on the telephone, “What do violets mean? ‘he asked solemnly. “Abont two dollars,” she sald wick edly. “Oh, pshaw! T mean the sentimen tal meaning—you know!" “Oh, I did ask you for violets, didn't 17" “Yos.” “Well, I've changed my mind, Rob. Bring me any flowers you care to.” The next morning Bob stopped in the florist's and ordered a bridal bou- quet, made up of lilies of the valley, to be sent to Miss Dell Moore for the Datters' ball. His card went with it. “I shall hold you to your promise,” he scribbled on ft, It was not easy to find Miss Moore at the Datters’ ball. There were so many slim young creatures that might be Dell. Bob Gaines, dressed as a cavaller, pursued a green gown through a crowded room and cornered it in an alcove. He recognized glint of hair and the set of the ears behind the large white satin mask. “Dell,” he reproached her, “you are wearing daffodils!” “Am I?" she asked pertly. * thought they were orchids, really, 1 dia “They 100k "horrid with that green gown—you look like an egg salad,” he | pursued cruelly, “Thanks,” she murmured. “You promised to wear my flowers it they harmonized with your gown.” “I never did!” she denied. “Dell!™ “But my name isn’t Dell!™ “What is it, then?” “Nell Galnes—ryes, your own sister, Bobby! Ah, it was your own fault, sir—you did insist!” “Awful!” commented Bobby, his head turning here and there in search of Dell Moore. “But why the bride’™ asked Nell coolly. “What bride " he turned quickly. Coming slowly toward his corner was a slender young form whose car riage he recognized at once. She wag gowned in white satin, and from her head there swayed a thick veil of white tulle and orange blossoms. Her face was entirely hidden behind 5 mask.
