hadn't much hapes ef winning her.
He knew tbat( Bertha waa the Beat
popular girl on the South aids and
that aha had mare auitdrs than aba
knew what to do with, and also that
among her suitors were several who
were well eff and able to give her
much more than be could.
* But It waa like Owen to atake all
on a Uve-or-dle proposition, so he
swung Into line with the rest of the
gallants and did hla best to win Ber
tha’s flirpr, falling more deeply in
love with ber all tne time.
Of course Bertha was sweet to him
—she was sweet te all the boys—and
of course she went riding with him
occasionally In his rather undent road*
ster and accepted his flowers and
candy and laughed pleasantly but
without conviction when bo told her
that the sun rose and act In her eyes
and that without her Ufa far him
would be a dreary waste Indeed.
So Owen's hopes did not increaae
though be doggedly continued -hla
tolrtflhlp. He cobtda’t quit now while
there waa the slightest chance. He
waa too deeply In love. There wae
altogether too meyb truth la hla dec

waa nothing left far him la Ufa.

It was hard for Owen at first to
stay sway from Bertha. All the day
and night he found himself longing to
see her again. But he resolutely cut
hlnixelf off from all communication
with her. And he resolutely set him
self to the task of finding a nice sen
sible girl whom he could calmly court
and then marry. ' * *
He found a nice, pretty, sensible
girl at last. She was Laura Pohler, a
stenographer In the office where Owen
was employed. And slowly and care
fully he began to make friends with
her. .
Laura welcomed Owen’s advances
gratefully; she waa as bereft of suit
ors as Bertha was overburdened with
thedi. Together they went to the
“movies,” to dances and for rldeujn
Owen’s ancient roadster. ►
Always In hla Intercourse with
Laura, Owen waa practldli, calm—'
almost cool.
