The wedding was over, the goodbys
and the good nights had all boon said,
aud the Moutelths' big Btouo house, ra
diant only a few hours ago with light
and laughter, was now grimly darl:
and silent.
But excitement had set the niuld of
honor's, pulse to throbbing, and sho
could not sleep. Over aud over again
sho went through her part of the state
ly ceremony to the slow, majestic mu
sic of the wedding march.
Over and over again she remembered
that endless, measured walk down the
long church aisle, with the magic scent
of roses everywhere and the trembling
consciousness of the best man's gaze
fixed unwaveringly upon her.
Aud she recalled all the pretty things
he had said to her afterward? that she
was like a dreaui girl come true, that
she was more beautiful than th? blush
ing bride herself. What shameless
heresy, when the bride was his very
own sister!
Wedding nights, sighed Elsie, were
much like Halloweens? one dipped Into
the future aud saw sweet visions, but
only visions, after all! Yet still she
sat In her shlinmery green maid of
honor frock, the moonlight shedding a
wondrous frost upon it. From some
distant point a clock struck twice. Sho
rose with determination, then suddenly
became tense and rigid. Her heart was
lu her mouth.
In the rooiu Just diagonally across
the hall, wliich was the upstairs sitting
room, she had distinctly heard a win
dow opened, it dashed across her in
stantly that burglars had con* alter
the wedding presents. Her own door,
the night being stilling worm, stood
part way ojien, but she was too- para
lyzed with fear to run aud lock It.
She listened with straiued ears for
any further sound, it soon followed.
The burglar stumbled against some
thing. For u few minutes after thut
all was horribly still. Then, with, cat
like step, Elsie heard Jilm coming Into*
the ball.
Should she scream? She tried to,- but
could not. Iler voice "stuck in her
throat."
By tin* aid of the moonlight Hsle
couid make out a dark form creeping
past her own room toward the stairs.
Thank goodness, ho was not gqlng to
bind and gag her or hold her up at the
point of a pistol!
But the wedding presents! Should
she let him steal them without trying
to give an alarm? Yes. she would.
The bride and groom could not be so
very much attached to them. They
had not had them long enough, and It
was au awfully long way Oowu the
hall to Mr. Monteith's mom.
There wus no one near her except
two of the bridesmaids, und a precious
lot of good It would do to wake them!
This perfection had the efTect of stimu
lating her own latent courage. No; he
should not tcarry off those wedding
presents ? she, Elsie Laurie, would see
that he did not.
She was relieved to find that she
could really move. She tiptoed to the
door and listened. Not a sound. So
she ventured stealthily out Into the hall
aud even peeked over the balustrade.
Still uo sound and as dark as a pocket.
Could she have been dreaming? Be
fore she roused the house she would
make quite sure. Creeping down to
the landing of the stairs, she crouched
behind the balustrade and waited, her
heart thumping rapidly.
Suddenly the dining room portieres
parted, aud a tuan holding a lighted
cigarette stepped out from behind them.
Elsie gave a frightened cry of "ltob
ort!" and fainted.
When she recovered she was choking
over something very stroug and burn
ing that some one was pouring down
her throat. She opened her eyes and j
recognized Robert Montieth bending j
over her.
"Did you catch the burglar?" she
asked him weakly. I
"Elsie, my poor child," he* said, lift
lug her gently till her head rested
against his sbuulder, ".there wasn't
any burglar. It was Just me. I'm so
sorry."
She looked dazed, as If she could not
understand.
"You must have been awfully scared,
dear," he went 011 tenderly. "I'll tell
you Low It happened. 1 chased the
bride and groom, you know, to find out
where they were going, and when I
dually got back here 1 remembered I
hadn't any key. So I climbed up over
the porch and got In through the Bit
ting room window. 1 thought you
were nil aaieep, and 1 knew if I did
that 1 wouldn't disturb anybody," he
ended, with a somewhat slut-pish smile.
Klsle smiled a little too. She was be
gluuing to see the humor of the situa
tion. liv degrees she told him her side
of the story.
"You're the bravest girl In all the
world, dearest, and I"?
"Did you stub your toe against some
thing just after you got In?" she inter
rupted, with teasing Irrelevance.
He admitted, rather shortly, that he
did.
"It was awfully quiet for a few min
utes afterward," she observed dryly.
"Yes, I wasn't saying much? out loud.
But, say, Elsie"? he broke off resolute
ly, swinging her thoughts round to
more personal matters again? "what
would you say if I turned Into a real
burglar after all and tried to steal you
on the spot?"
"I'm not a bit afraid," she answered
him calmly, her eyes looking with ador
able aasurjinee straight luto his. "To
night has made me wonderfully coura?
Goodness! What's that?" she whis
pered, trembling with fright.
A door In the upper hall had opened
fsoftly.
Before Robert could answer she had
reached up to the electric button on the
wall and switched off the light.
Immediately a voice commanded,
"Who's there?"
"It's I, father," Robert called hoarse
ly. "Don't shoot."
Realizing then whnt a thoughtlessly
dangerous thing she had done, Elsie as
suddenly turned 011 the light again and
bravely faced the astonished Robert
Montlcth, Sr.
"Explain yourself, sir," ordered Rob
ert's father sternly.
And Robert explained.
"It was all your fault, anyhow, dad,"
he finished, with Ingenuous climax.
"You shouldn't have left the window
unlocked."
Mr. Montelth accepted the reproof
good naturodly. "You have my forgive
ness, son," and be added, with benig
nant smile, extendlntr his outstretched
hands over the twc^?>ung lovers, "my
very heartfelt blessing."
At tills psychological moment half a
dozen other doors were thrown open,
and a motley audience collected at the
head of the stairs, all demanding si
multaneously to know the cause of the
disturbance. In their gala but decided
ly unconventional attire one would
hardly have recognized the smart bri
dal party of the earlier evening.
Poor Robert was forced to explain all
over again.
"Well, is that all V" commented one
of the erstwhile bridesmaids, rubbing
her eyes. "If I'd known this was ouly
a fake burglar show 1 wouldn't have
stirred a step. When I saw Mr. Mon
telth spreadlug out his arms so dra
matically" the girl gave a capital imi
tation of the gesture? "over somebody,
1 thought It must be another wedding
ceremony for sure, and I came out to
Join in the procession."
There was a general laugh at the ex
pense of Elsie and Robert, but the lat
ter was undaunted.
"That gives me a perfectly great
idea." he exclaimed jubilantly. "I here
with Invite you all to an impromptu
wedding. You can all be rehearsing
while I run across the street and rouse
up the minister. What do you say,
Elsie?"
Elsie blushed, blinked and protested.
"You're absolutely crazy, Rob. Be
sides, I'm too sleepy," she pleaded. "I
couldn't keep awake during the cere
mony. but," she added graciously, "the
.Invitations are Just postponed. We'll
ask you all again at some more proper
time."
"Hear, hear!" they all cried enthusi
astically, and "Hurrah, hurrah, hur
rah!" after which most unreasonable
demonstration the big house put out Its
lights once more and settled down to
sleep.
Her Crowning Glory.
She stood before tho mirror
In flowing robu du nult.
"What could be more alluring,"
She cried, "than whut I see?
A figure soft nnd rounded.
A face of beauty rare,
A neck of snowy whiteness,
A crown of golden hair?"
She paused and added sadly,
"Uneasy lies the head
That wears a crown!" Sho doffed it
And made a break for bed.

ALL PROMPTLY CURED BY
"WONDERFUL OINTMENT"
"Some years ago my three little girls
lutd a very bad form of eczema. Itch

formed on the
backs of their
heads which
were simply
covered. Before
I heard of Cuti
cura, I used to
try almost
everything, but
they failed.
Then my mother
recommended
the Cuticura
Remedies. 1
wasnea my cnuarens neuus ?n? tun
euro Soap and thon applied the wonder
ful ointment, Cuticura. 1 did this four
or Ave times and I can say t hat they have
been entirely cured. 1 have another
baby who is so plump that the folds of
skin on his neck were broken and even
bled. I used Cuticura Soap and Cuti
cura Ointment and the next morning
the trouble had disappeared. 1 am
using the Cuticura Remedies yet when
ever any of my family have any sores. I
can never recommend Cuticura suffi
ciently; it is indispensable in evory home.
I cannot find its equal. Mme. Napoleon

On Foot for a Year. Healed by
Twfr Sets of Cuticura
"I had an ulcer on my foot for a year
or more and it was vory painful as it
was a running sore. I had a doctor,
but his' treatment did not heal it. About
eight months ago I commenced to use
Cuticura Soap. Cuticura Ointment,
and Cuticura Pills. I used two sets and
it is now all healed up. Mrs. E. F.Rvder.
