I was thirty-live year old nnd be coming tired of myself. The summer was coming on, nnd t went to the sea- shore, thinking that 1 might shako off ennui. There were boya and girls nt the hotel who excited my envy by the friendly way or tho loTcrllko way or any kind of n way they mingled. There was a young woman apparent ly a year or two past thirty who. on my arrival at the hotel, seemed to regard mo with something more than an orul nary Interest. Sho was Kitting on the porch ns 1 entered the house and tlxtsi her eyes upon mo with a peculiar ex pression. 1 would hnvo liked to be lieve as I would have believed ten or fifteen years bcfore-tlmt 1 had runde an Instantaneous conquest, but that day wns past. I dimply Inferred that there wns something about mv that reminded her of some one she know or hnd known, t had no remembrance of ever having met her before. Tho next morning 1 Joined n group of ladles commonly cnlled tlu knitting brlgado sitting on tho porch, and Miss Brown, the lady 1 have mentioned, be ing among the number I $.i intro duced to her. Drawing n chair beside hers, 1 entered Into conversation with her. Sho hnd tho faculty of placing a man on unconvontlonnl terms with her at once, n valuable gift In a womun that Is. whenever sho cares to exercise It and I felt nt once ns freo with her as if I had known her for years. The other ladles one by ono withdrew and left Miss Brown and mo by ourselves. Wo chatted till lunchedn wns announc ed nnd wondered what had becomo of the mornlug. 'flint was tho beginning of It. Thero wus nothing between us that could bo called a lllrtntlon. Wo hnd pnssed that ngo. We simply found companion ship 1" each other and spent much of our time together, or, rather, all our time that we were not In our rooms. Miss Brown treated mo not ns a stranger, but ns one sho had known n long while. Rvery now and again sho would lndleato thnt there was or had been at some provlous time something between us. but gave out nothing that I could get hold of nothing that I could oven question her about. So we drifted from day to day, 1 every now and ,agulu running up ngalnst this vague something sho seemed to hnvo on her mind. And hero I will remark that there aro elrcumstnnces. episodes, happen ings' call them whnt you lllco that a man will forgot, but a woman will re- moinher ro long ns she lives, it Is tho Inrge things that Interest a man his career, the lutercsts of his country or those questions which pertain to tho ongoing of the world. A woman will treasure a note, a button, anything connected with somo scene or person near to lur heart. Finding Miss Brown compnnlonablo, It occurred to me thnt here might be a chanco for me to get away from my loucly bachelorhood, to exchange club llfo fb'r homo life, to Bottle myself for tho rest of my .days. Whether I could do so was very easy to discover. All that was needed was for mo to propose to Miss Brown. But hero wns a difficulty. When I was a young man 1 could make love for fun. as I regarded It, by tho hour, I knew a flirt by Instinct, or thought I did, and there woro no boundaries with such to my lovctnaklng. Hut now In ml ildlo. 1 1 go to do the mime thing, mid do It seriously, seemed Impossible. In vain I attempted to Hay noniethliiK "soft" to her. The words wouldn't coinu oilt. And how could I propose "In cold blood V" There must be some approach to n decluratlou of lore coupled with an Invitation to the vh uitin to be my wife. By dint perseverance I managed to bring forth several hints as to whnt was coining. Then, having prepared the lady, the next thing was to make the proposition. I took tier out for a long wnlk'ou the bench, hoping to gain Inspiration from what the waves were saying. The waves seemed to any. "You old buldhesuled coot, what sort of u fellow nro you to toll a middle aged woman you love hor?" I kept lior on her feet for two hours vainly trying, to screw up my courage to the required pohit. The worst of It was thnt I knew she wns nwiiro of what I was endeavoring to bring out and was getting tired of waiting for It not only tired mentally, but bodily, espocl ally in hor legs. But 1 couldn't do It 1 marched her back to the hotel. I mudo several more unsuccessful at tempts, but Dually while we wore sit Hug hi n comer of the plaz'u by our selves, with no one about. I made a final nttompt and won. Then I listen ed brentuICH for a reply. "You are not ns glib at this sort of thing." Bho said, "as you were four teen years ago." I started. "What do you mean," I naked. "Don't you remember sitting in the moonlight nt another hotel Just boforo returning to college for your Inst year tliero proposing to n girl?" "Whnt uiinip?" "Madge Brown." "The flirt of the Whito mountnlns, so called?" "Yes." Sho unclasped a looket she wore on her neck nnd showed me some plaited strand of hair. "Whoso ts It?" I uskod. "Yours." eBoipld State ' .. NORTH PAID UP A Modern Institution For tho treatment of medical and surgical cases. Open to th e medical profession, Special accomodations for confinement cases.
