Their Unexpected
Wedding Day
By JANE OSBORN

(#, mi. fcf MoCI«r» N*wtpap«r Bradlckt*.)
- “Have nothing to do with your
stenographer socially. Be courteous
and considerate to her but never
friendly.”
If Martin Jackson, at thirty, had
written down the rhles to which he
adhered in business the above lines
would have been included in tils code
of conduct. He went so far as to try
to avoid knowing the first name of the
young woman who worked in the same
office; he tried not to know what sec-
tion in town or what suburb was the
residence of bis personal stenographer.
This seemed especially Important now,
as the stenographer in question was
distinctly pretty. She possessed per
sonality, a voice you couldn’t forget,
eyes that were apt to smile at you if
you closed your own for a bit of a day
dream.
• But Martin was punctiliously consid
erate, and when Miss Gray asked
whether it would be possible for ber to
take her two weeks’ summer vacation
the second week in April—of course,
■he didn't esplaln why because she had
learned that Martin Jackson didn’t
care for such intrusions of personal
matters—Martin assured ber that he
would speak to the manager
about it. He was quite sure It could
be arranged. A substitute could be
provided for him during her abeeoce.
But ae daya passed It became ap
parent to Martin Jack eon that a# sub
stitute would he asreeeery. By a rare
oaiaetdenre ha found‘that he wee gw

Moving st five—not te return for

Martin took courage.
"1. hop^ you will enjoy your vaca
tion.** he said. “It’s barely possible
that I won’t go on mine, but don't let
that interfere with your plans. Good-
by, Miss Gray.” ew-
Miss Gray looked amazed and dis
appointed, but knew Martin Jackson’s
prejudice against personalities too
well to linger after ber brief “good-
by.” » *
The next morning when Martin
Jackson strolled leisurely into his of
fice at ten he found Miss Gray seated
at her accustomed place. His train
was not due to depart until two that
afternoon, and he had not done any
thing to cancel his reservations nor
had he unpacked, bis luxurious bag
gage. He hoped 7 in spite of himself
that another telegram would coma
from his friend telling him that yes
terday’s message was a mistake.
“How does it happen that you are
here?’’ he asked Miss Gray, glad to
think of some one eise’s affairs besides
his own, and as he looked st her he
realized that the young woman was
troubled. A tear lingered in the little
cup below one of her blue eyes.
“My plans have all been upset," sba
said. “There was a telegram waiting
for me when I got borne last night.
Oh. I’m so disappointed—I—but I

Tat Levy las IPSA
In designing four wheel
brakes upon its wonderful
new four cylinder models,
Buick provides a four cyl
inder motor car unequalled
for sturdiness, power,
beauty, comfort and safety.
The widespread demand
that met their introduc
tion evidences how fully
these models answer the
need for a small car of
proved dependability and
performance.
All Buick 1924 six cylin
der cars likewise have four
wheel brakes.

Marlin found hlmsrlf wnodorlng why
Mlm Gray had to g<> at this particular
time. Ho had hoard before now of
stenograph on and tholr Ilk going off
nnd getting married, and then coming
hick to their old Jobs to continue as
wage earners the same ns usual. It
might be that this was Miss Gray’s
plan. ,lt w*a Just the time for wed-
dlagi and certainly not a usual time
for summer vacations. It would have
been an enormous relief to have been
able to ask her point-blank how she
was going to spend her vacation.
The day before the planned trip West
Martin at least felt- the satisfaction of
having attended to all details. His
trunk was packed, tickets bought and
chair and sleeping section reserved.
Work at the office was pretty well
cleared up also. Everything was set—
and then came the thunderbolt. It was
a telegram handed to him by the faith
ful Miss Gray. - y/
Frederick tore it open. “Wedding
plans called off. Don’t come.. Both
discovered affections elsewhere. Will
write details.” He read it two, three,
four times and then sat staring at the
yellow sheet He was amazed at the
newa, and then, as he sat there mo
tionless, amazed at the feeling of dis
appointment and annoyance that waa

STYLE OF MOCCASIN VARIED
Kach Indian Tribs Had Its Own Pe
culiar Maks, and Wsre Therefore
Easy to Identify.
| Each tribe of prairie Indians had
a different method of making jnocca-
slns, so that anyone, acquainted with
1 the various fashions, was not at a losa
to know the nation to which any par-
I ticular one belonged whom he might
happen to meet. The Arapahoes and
Cheyennes used a “shoe” moccasin—
I that is, one which reached no higher
than the Instep, andjacke,d the upper
side-flaps which moccasins usually
had. The Chippewa moccasins dif
fered from those of the Prairie make,
by the seam being made up tho center
of the foot to the leg, and puckered
Into plaits. This was the true fash
ion of the “Forest Indian.”
Thin* kind of moccasin was worn
by a traveler from'England while tour
ing in the West at about the time of
the Mexican war. They attracted the
attention of some Arapahoe warriors.
One old chief explained to the mem
bers of his party that the people who
made those moccasins lived (hr, far
away frem the sun, where the anow
lay deep oa the ground, aad where the
night was IIlaminated by the ary*ary
ftre (ike aurora borsatlg). which he
had semi. ) earn ag». far to the north.
