"My dear Graco," tho fair young -B writer said, "I know you will be great--B ly Interested In this happiness which , has come to me. You always wero 'OF klnd eno"8h to bo deeply Interested In jl nl' and disappointments. No, f Mr. Wnddlngton has not proposed. I i should not bo gushing to you about It If ho had. He has plenty of money I and wood fnmlty and nil that, but to tell you the truth I don't liko him. M 1 supposd It would requlro a good deal a of moral courage on my part to refuse a I him If ho asked mo to marry him, but J I 1 think I should bo nhlo to rise to the I occasion. Iteally, I am very happy, yl nnd I should not bo happy at all If I wero engaged to Cadwalader Wad- ,M dlngton. The world seems to have n now glory to possess beauties that I I havo never dreamed of In the pabt.

I shall do ;l so only I wish I could bo there to tell I you In person and permit you to see. Ttero' are some things that It is so I hard to write about. 1 can fancy you sitting tho;v with my letter In your f i hand as you try to guess who It can bo. After I havo assured you that It Is not Mr. Wnddlngton you nro prob- J nbly convinced that It must be Harry j3 Doldon, but you aro wrong. IIo asked 'j mo In the fall, It you care to know', I nnd I told him .that I would always I think kindly of Iflm. and all that sort I of thing, and I meant It, too. Ho la it a dear only not Just tho kind of a E dear I could bo happy with. And 1 I haven't seen Tom Anhlston for I months, If you nro thinking of him. .1 But nil this Is silly. In truth I'm so happy that I fear I'm disposed to bo I foolish. Havb patience, denr. You -M would bo foolish If you were In my place. The truth is I have a peach . of a. not corset that I can almost sit ' down In." 8. 10. Klser, In Chicago I Hecord-Horald. |
