One evening at dusk, two weeks after their first meeting, Carter and Masie strolled arm-in-arm into a iit. jue, dimiyit park. They found a) bench, treeshadowed and secluded, and sat there. For the first time his arm stole gently around her. Her golden- bronze head slid restfully against his shoulder. j “Geer sighed Maste, thankfully. “Why didn't you ever think of that; before?” “Masie,” said Carter, earnestly, | “you surély know that I love you.

I suppose you really work in a/ delicatessen or follow the racea, I ain't as green as I look.” “I can furnish you all the proofs you want,” said Carter, gently. “And I want you, Masie. I loved you the first day I saw you.” “They all do,” said Masie, with an amused laugh, “to hear ‘em talk. If 1 could meet @ man that got stuck on me the third time he'd seen me I think I'd get mashed on him.” “Please don’t say such things,” Page 1 eyes you have been the enly woman in the world for moe.” “Oh, ain't you the kidder™ amiled Masio, “How 1 y other girls did you ever tell that? But Carter persisted. And at length he reached the fimay, fluttering lit tle soul of the shopgirt that exinted somewhere deep down in her lovely bosom, His words penetrated the heart whose very lightness was tte safest armor, She looked up at him with eyes that saw, And a warm giow visited her cool cheeks Trem blingly, awfully, her moth wing» clawed, and ashe seemed about to set. le upon the flower of love. Some fatnt glimmer of life and its ponsi- bilities on the other side of her glove counter dawned upon her, Carter felt the change and crowded the op- portunity, “Marry me, Mastie,” he whispered softly, “and we will go away from this ugly city to beautiful ones, We will forget work and Business, and life will be one long holiday, I know where I should take you--I have been there often.
