Saucepan Romance.
Fred Mattlll of New Brunswick, N. J.,
won his bride through the medium of a
saucepan. The bride waa Miss Clara Berg
and when they were married recently one
of the chief decorations of tha table at
which the brldo and her bridesmaids sat
was a big saucepan, wound around with
ribbons that formed the table decorations.
The saucepan brought out the story of
the(woolng and winning of Miss Berg by
Mr. Mattlll.
The saucepan romance began during last
August That day Miss Berg had gone for
a long walk Into the hills surrounding the
pretty New Jersey city and she waa wear
Ing her newest hut. a beautiful little toque
that she had bought because It matched
her new Alice blue wall.r.,g suit. She was
not wearing the walking suit because she
had planned n scramble u? the hills and
Into the woods above the Rarltan. But
she could not resist the temptation to wear
the new hat.
She had been sitting In the shade of a big
onk reading for perhaps an hour, looking
aown upon tne beautirul river, when a
sudden clap of thunder aroused her. Al
most before sho could scramble to her feet
n few drops of rain spattered down and
he started to run toward the road. There
was no shelter except the treea within a
mile and, although she didn't mind the
wetting, she began to mourn for fear her
new toque would be ruined.
It happened that Mattlll at that moment
waa hurrying up the hill to reach shelter
before the storm broke In full fury. He
was walking out from New Brunswick to
his farm and, as it happened, ha waa
carrying a huge saucepan which he had
promised to bring out to the wife of his
tenant. Miss Berg was crouching In the
shelter of a tree, planning to take off her
hat and tuck It under her skirt, when
Mattlll approached and ran for shelter un
der the same tree.
The rain was beginning to pour and both
were sure of a good wetting.
"Wa r going to get wet." said Mattlll.
"I wouldn't mind If It wasn't for my
hat," said Mlsa llerg.
"Give it to me. I can save that," said
Mattlll. and. taking the girl's hat. he
placed It lnalde the big saucepan, put the
lid on firmly, and they stood close together
until the ruin censed, and he produced the
hut undumpened.
