nitnre store, paat whose glittering win
dews be and Gel la had so often strolled
on sunnier tveniugs and before which,
lately, they bad paused more often to
disonss the merits of the furniture dls
played therein.
There had beta one momentous oc
casion when they had entered the store
and looked at parlor wits and both
had fallen tn lore with one of oaa

make a depoalt of $10 on the fnml

wltMn a week or so.
Several weeks bad passed and the
roonc ?an had become engrossed in
his Inreotfon: dollar after dollar bad
been withdrawn from the bank tin til

where contented wires and happy
children worked and played; be conld
see Cella. bis wife. Ilrlng In an afflu
