J Jlrusle hail learned to watch for her
long before she noticed him. The 7:08
was never so crowded as the 7:13, and
Betty I. n rued had no trouble In getting
the same seat every morning, the next
| to the last lu the third car.
She lilted that particular seat becauso
It save her a Jong view of the marshy
creek and tho great bay beyond, pour
ing Its restless waters Into the soa.
J lmsle's post was on tho great trestle
approaching the drawbridge. At Ilrst
he had simply watched the t ruins as
they slowed up before pusslng over tho
draw.
Being a young man of considerable
Imagination, he could picture the long
line of commuters winding to the fer
ries and then breuklug on the shores
of the big city 'beyond like a stream
ong conflned to narrow banks. What
a multitude of Interests they repre
sented: Aud to how many of the
great warehouses, skyscrapers and
stores they must scatter.'
He felt qulfe !i?re tt,ut tLe g,rl wltfa
the light brown hair and gentle grav
eyes worked very far uptown, for she
never missed the 7:08, while most of
i lie girl commuters preferred the 7 23
which brought them Into town Just 'in
?'me to make offices and stores for the
S o'clock openlugs.
In this Jlmsle was wrong. Bettv
worked quite close to the ferrv but
10 wa" "" earnest, ambitious young
Person with a horror of being tardy
so she rook no chances on the- 7:23
helug late. Drawbridges, she had
heard, were tricky.
ihUrrumur was confirmed oue morn
ing when the excursion steamer Lena
and fhIU-#rl COntrary ,n *** "'raw,
m ,.n u f't00<l 0,1 the* narrow tres
Slld irl2ThCPeW ?f Lt'Ua Bel,e
?ild bring her to time. And that wus
he morning Betty notice*! Jlmsle for
me first time.
rr?!l?f,efh"ISh.t,bftV? r,""a'onff with the
crow or m. , d hoT" ,0 ,vatph fhe
erew of the Lena Relle. but he had
something more plenBanfto watch-the
S w|ndow from
train ,b'nl Car'on th,> sta,led
The third car stood right In front of
Ids Uttle shanty, and directly Jlmsle
had reported the delay of the train to
headquarters by telephone he dashed
back to the track, gazed up nn<l met
the soft gray eyes squarely
Instinctively his hand went up- to his
hat. then dropped, and a flush blazed
<?P under his healthy ton. The Krav
'?.ves opened very ?lde, then ware hid
den by long lashes.
?Vo, Betty was quite sure she had
never seen this very good looking vou ug
rnn befoiv. de did not live at Green
port. and he had never worked In the
store.
Maybe she hud met him at the single
dance she, bad attended at the Big
Four Social club. But, no; he was not
the sort of man who went to those
balls, Betty was quite sure. It was be
cause she bad not llfced the men that
she had refused all^succeedlng invita
tions from the club.
She raised her lashes Just a tiny bit
and met a respectful but undeniably
admiring glance from Jlmsle's brown
eyes. She tried to look across the aisle
at the Impatient passengers, then down
the bay, but the sun danced so madly
on the blue water that It hurt lifer eyes.
And as she bad to look somewhere she
looted down again Into the brown eyes
of the young track foreman.
Then, with a Jerk, the Lena Belle
plunged forward Into the current, rail
way men shouted orders, there were a
creaking aud rattling of machinery and
chains, and the 7:08 plunged on toward
town.
Jluisle waved a friendly hand after
the retreating Lena Belle. Good old
boat! It had given him ti good chance
to study the little girl at close range,
and he had not beeu disappointed.
What was more, he knew that she '
had taken his measure aud would
know him the next time they met.
Now, the books on etiquette and the
learned- women writers for magazines
tell you that you must be properly In
troduced to a man. You must be chap
eroned, and the more pretty you are
the more rigid must be the chaperon
age.
But the workaday world changes
many of these things. JImsIe began to
plan on meeting the owner of the gray
eyes somehow, somewhere, without the
aid or cousent of a chaperon. If you
love a girl you love her and you win
her? that was Jlmsle's lexicon of good
form.
Aud Betty fell to dreaming of the
good looking young chap who was
watching for her every morning when
the 7:08 approached the bridge. First
their eyes carried the message, then
they smiled, aud finally they nodded
every morning.
When the sprlug weather made It
excusable to open a window Betty
took to gathering a few early blos
soms every morning and dropping
them over the sill as the train passed
the track foreman's shanty.
JImsIe was resourceful, but be could
And no one who knew where the girl
lived, aud he did not dare desert his
post to come near the window and
speak even If the train stopped long
enough for this feat.
Well, there was only one thing? he'd
take a day off soon and post himself
at the ferry entrance when the 7:08
pulled In. She could do no more ttuua
? II fl ?
turn him down, he argued, and some
how each day's glance 'nt0 ^e 80^
gray eyes nurtured him this fato would
not be his.
Id the meantime Betty was dolutf
her share of thinking and planning,
and at last ahe wrote to Miss Gwendo
lln Graves, who conducted the Heart
and Home page of the Evening Blazer.
"When a young man la so desperately
In love with you that It Just shines
out of his eyes atid beams ~Ih his
smile, but you don't kuow him or any
one who does know him, but Just soo
him every day on your wny to work,
wbnt do you do? He might toss you
a note-but then every one on the
train would see It and think you were
a flirt, nud not for worlds would you
toss hliu a note." And there was a
stamped and addressed envelope, and
please would Miss Gwendolln write
very soon?
And Miss Gwendolln did, for the lit
tle letter had the ring of self respect
and sincerity lu It. But, alas! Miss
(iwendolln wrote that the man would
tlud a way If he really loved her, as
his eyes proclaimed, and a certain fate
was probably working this very min
ute to bring them together. Abore all
things, Betty was not to worry. Things
would come out right.
Not a very satisfactory or practical
reply. Yet Betty took comfort and
carried it lu her purse all day. If fate
was reallv at work she would try to
wait and be patient, but Jlmsle's ador
ing eyes made this very hard Indeed.
That night she slept with the little
note under her pillow and the next
morning tucked It back Into her purse.
As the long train pulled on to the tres
tle she took a fresh grip on the pursp.
It somehow seemed n connecting link
between herself and the man who she
knew would be waiting for her by the
weather beaten shanty. ?
Were ever eyes so brown as his or
teeth so white and regular? Then her
thoughts came to a sudden grinding,
terrifying stop. There was something
wrong They were not slowing up as
thoy upproaJhed the little shanty, but
racing on wltji a madness which broke
all* rules and ve?ulatloiidv
Theu bo reams arose. Men ruabed to
the front of the car. They seemed to
be lifted Into space, then horrible
noises, shrieks, curses and an awful
plunge, a blow that she hardly felt,
because It was so terrific? and black
ness.
When she woke U|, she looked
straight Into tlie brown eyes of which
she had been dreaming when the blow
fell. .
"Darling." he was saylug, and her
eyes went open very wide despite the
dreadful pain In her head-"darllng, I
thought I'd never get to you. Tell me
you're alive! Tell mo you ain't hurt
much! Tell me you love me'.'
Betty gasped. Fate must have been
very busy while she slept. She reached
for her purse and touched her dress,
now drenched with water. She readied
for her hat. It was gone, and her hair
was dripping water too. Then she
realized that the owner of the brown
eyes was dripping likewise.
"Something went wrong. The train
went through the draw," he explained
rapidly. "There's a lot drowned, and
the ambulances are codling. They'll
take you away, and I've got to go.
They'll take vou to the hospital 'cause
your head is' cut, but first you tell me
you're all rlglit-you're going to get
well. And what's your name? I m
coming to the hospital tonight See!
"My name's Betty Larued, and I
guess I ain't hurt much, but you can't
come to the hospital. We've never
been Introduced." She felt very faint,
^i'he clatter of an ambulance tearing
around the bank made Jlmsle Jump,
and he gathered her close to his arms
in the midst of the awful scene of
wreckage and death.
-Say, this ain't the time for being
fussy," he murmured earnestly. "I
love you, and 1 thought I was going to
lose you. I'm comlng to the hospital
soon as I get off. See!"
Betty looked up Into the big brown
eyes, and a fluttering smile crept
around her white lips.
"Yes, dear," she said and closed her
eyes.
The ambulance surgeon bent over
her.
"I'll take care of her," he said snarp
ly to Jlinsle.
Jlmsle laid the unconscious form be
side another In the ambulance. Then
he gripped the young surgeon's sleeve.
"Say, you bo careful with her. Sbe's
my girl. See!" . ' : ?* ^
Dickons' Inclination to Mimicry.
Charles Dickens, who sent to Samuel
Rogers several of his books, wlio dedi
cated "Master Humphrey's Clock" to
hlui and who frequently assisted at the
famous breakfasts la St. James' place,
was accustomed, rather cruelly, It may
be thought, to take off his host's very
characteristic way of telling a story,
and It Is, moreover, affirmed by Percy
Fitzgerald that In the famous read
ings "the strangely obtuse and owl
like expression aud the 'slow, husky
croak' of Mr. Justice SUrelelgh lu the
'Trial From Pickwick' were closely
modeled upon the author of the 'Pleas
ures of Memory.' " That Dickens used
thus to amuse his frleuds Is confirmed
by the "Contidooces" of the late Fred
erick Locker, who perfectly remem
bered the old man, to see whom he had
been carried as a boy by his father.
He had also himself heard Dickens re
peat one of Rogers' stock anecdotes (it
was that of the duel In a dark room,
where one of the combatants, humane
ly tiring up the chimney, brings down
Ills adversary), and he speaks of Dick
ens ns imitating Rogers' "calm, low
pitched, drawling voice and dry biting
manner very comically." At the sasr>e
time It must be remembered that these
reminiscences relate to Rogers in his
old age. Ho waa over seventy whea
Dlckeus published his first book,
