A ROMANCE OF THE HOUR.
How Gwendolyn Wagsmith Became a
Countess Without Any Expense.
COLONEL "WAGSMITH sat in hia
office, his face a picture of
gloom. Reputed captain of
finance. It had now become necessary
for him to confess to the failure of
his schemes. He bad just signed certain
final papers which cleared the
way for a receivership when the office
boy entered the room bearing a card.
The colonel read its superscription,
and his face cleared. It read a^ follows:
"The Countess Burgstaller."
"Show the lady right in, Henry,"
said the colonel. "Is any one with
her?"
"Yes, sir," said the boy. "A tall
feller with a red mustache. Looks
like he thought he was the yemperer
of Choymany, air."
"Good!" said the colonel. 'Til see
them right away." .
. The office boy disappeared, and the
| colonel threw his head back and ini
dulged in a silent guffaw.
'T thought It would work," he muttered
to himself.
The door opened, and the colonel's
daughter, followed by a tall military
looking individual, entered the room.
"Father!" she cried.
"What! You?my daughter?" returned
the colonel, the laughter fading
from his face. "Why., this card says
the Countess of Burgstaller."
"I am she," said Gwendolyn, a rosy
blush mantling her cheek. "Adolph
and I"?
"Ve haff elopit. Colonel Vagschmidt,"
put in the count, seeing that
the girl hesitated. "I lofe her so,
undt all de vortdt lofes a loafer. Ve
hope for your forgifness."
In an instant the count was upon
one knee, and the countess' arms were
intwined about her father's neck.
"Forgiveness:" roareu wa^smuu,
freeing himself gently from the embrace.
"Forgiveness! Why. my dear
count, what have I to forgive? I am
delighted?perfectly delighted."
The count rose quickly and eyed the
magnate with curious eyes.
"Teligbted, Colonel Vagschmidt?" he
inquired in a tone of deep perplexity.
"That's what 1 said, count," returned
the colonel. "Perfectly delighted."
"But" said the bewildered count, "I
do not undherstant. Ditt you not forbitt
me de house alretty?"
"Ha-hum!" ejaculated Wagsmith.
"Come to think of it, old man, I did.
I told you?let's see, just what did I
say?"
"You saidt dot iff I come to~~de
house vunce more again you vould haff
de putler take me to te door yet again
vunce more undt show it to me, mitt
der policeman on dher oudside."
"Hum!" said Wagsmith. "Yes, I believe
1 did say that, count?I did."
"So ven I come around diss mornink
ven you vass down to dher office undt
take Miss Gwendolyn to de Liddle
Church up by dher Corner," resumed
the count, "I haff done somedings dat
call for your forgiffness. vot?"
"Not at all?not at all, my dear fellow,"
said the colonel, rising and seizing
the count by both hands. "You did
' ? A.j ?. J? ??
exactly wnat 1 wameu juu w uv.
"Vot ? you ? Touted ? me? to?do?"
echoed the count, astounded.
"Certainly, my dear man," said the
colonel. "And you fell into my plans
perfectly. When 1 saw that Gwendolyn
had set her heart upon having you
I made up my mind that she should
have you if there was any way under
heaven to bring it about, and just now
that was the only way."
"Dher only vay?" repeated the count,
rubbing the top of his head as though
something had stunned him. "I guess
I haff lost my Engklish. I do not undherstant"
"I have never denied my daughter
anything?not even the things 1 could
not afford." said the colonel. "She
wanted you, and my plan was that she
should have you."
"Den vy you forbitt me dher house?"
protested the count.
"So that you would do just what you
have done?elope with her," said the
colonel.
"Ynn rished dher eloDement?" de
manded the count, more perplexed than
ever.
"Yes, my son," said Colonel Wagsmith.
"I did. So here is my bless- 1
ing"?
"But vy?" cried the count
"Well, if you must know, count," replied
the colonel. "I am going into the
hands of a receiver tomorrow morning,
and to tell you the honest truth I
couldn't afford the expenses of a swell (
wedding." \
"Donner undt blitzen!" murmured
the count as they laid him gently in
the ambulance. "Donner undt blitzen!"

And that is how Gwendolyn Wag- j
smith became the Countess Burgstaller
without its costing her father a cent? ,

IN MEMORIAM.
Arzie Clemis, the little daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. John Dooley, was born
July the 5th, 1911, and died July the
6th, 1911, making her stay on earth
only one day.
We know not what it is. dear,
This sleep so deep and still;
The lid that will not lift again,
Though we may call and call.
The strange, white solitude of peace,
now settles over all.
The golden gates were opened wide,
. A gentle voice said ccme:
And angels from the other side
Welcomed my loyed one home.
Ileaven now retains my treasure,
Earth the lonely casket keeps;
And the sunbeams loye to linger.
Where my dear baby sleeps.

"Song of The Camp."
"Give U9 a song," the soldier cried,
^The outer trenches guarding,
As the heated guns of the camp allied
nroxTT nroorv nf HnmhArrHntr.
"The Song of the Gamp" i9 by Bayard
Taylor. The other stanzas are as follows:
The dark Redan, in silent scoff,
Lay grim and threatening under;
And the tawny mound of the Malskoff
No longer belch'd its thunder.
There was a pause. A guardman said:
"We storm the forts tomorrow;
Sing wnile we may, another day
Will bring enough of sorrow."
They lay along the battery's side.
Below the smoking cannon;
Brave hearts from Severn and from
Clyde,
And from the banks of Shannon.
They sang of love, and not of fame;
Forgot was Britain's glory;
W T ' I
Each heart recall'd a different, name
But all sang 4'Annie Laurig."
Voice after voice caught up the song,
Until its tender passion
Rose like an anthem, rich and strong?
Their battle-eve confession.
Dear girl, her name he dared not
speak,
But a9 the song grew louder,
Something upon the soldier's cheek
Wash'd off the stains of powder.
Beyond the darkening ocean burn'd
The bloody sunset's embers,
While the Crimean valleys learn'd
How English love remembers.
And once again a fire ofpiell
Rain'd on the Russian quarters,
With scream of shot, and burst of shell,
And bellowing: of the mortars!
And Iiish^Nora's eye9 are dim
For a singer dnm b and gory;
And English Mary mourns for him
Who sang of "Annie Laurie."
Sleep, soldiers! still in honor'd rest
Your truth and valor wearing;
The bravest are^the tenderest?
The loving are daring.
?Bayard Taylor.
Depends on the Lap.
A young woman recently sent this
extraordinary request to the editor of
the Religious Jour.it 1 subscribed for
at her home:
"Do you think it right for a girl to
sit in a man's lap, eyen if she is engaged?"
The eaifcDr spent some time in prayer
and answered her as follows:
"Yes, if it were our girl and our lap.
Yes, again, if it were some other fellow's
girl and our lap. But if it were
our girl and our girl in some other fellow's
lap, emphatically no. We don't
approve of such frivolty."
A girl never has to Jcoax a young
man not to spend so much money on
tier after they are married.
There's a lot of gasolene wasted in
family arguments.
The more people can talk about the
weather, the less they can think of
iseful things.
A man who will describe others as
not knowing enough to come in out of
;be rata will mseii noc nave enoagn
lo quit speculating.
What you know about a woman is
poa never know what she is going to
lo; and what you don't like about a
man is sometimes what you do know.
