CHAPTER CI. HEN you no longer love me, Cla- rice?” moaned Fitzgerald F biggins, our hero, as he cast a pleading glance toward the beauteous girl. « Listen, Fitzgerald of his affection, * You have no right to insinuate that I do not longer love you. Alas! it is I who must doubt you. Pray, who was that golden-haired female the newspapers describe you as pulling from the Thames yesterday ?” “Clarice,” answered Fitzgerald Fitz- biggins, “she wasa stranger to me. She fell off the bridge at four o'clock, but the bridge watchman heard her cries for aid, | and ran to her assistance. Luckily a passer-by who could swim had also heard her calls for help, and, tearing off his coat as he ran, with a bound he was over the railing of the bridge, and had leaped "—— “Spare yourself,” interrupted Clarice. | “ec hed the object “Lead that part of it in the papers this morning.

And worse even than the separations is the knowledge that you are constantly being seen with other women. Who was that handsome actress whose divorce trial you attended yester- day “If it comes to that,” he responded, re- ledsing her from his embrace and draw- ing up to his full height, “who was the wealthy American who called a hansom for you when you sprained your ankle last evening ?” “Ah!” she stammered. know.

CHAPTER XVMI. “There seems to be but little happen- ing to-lay,” quavered aged Ciarice Col umnwidth, as she rocked back and forth in her comfortable chair. Age had dealt kindly with her. True, she had grown stout, and her double chin could not be concealed even by the high ruffles of lace which formed a feature of all her attire ; but withal there lingered traces of the Pocket Maps Road Guide These maps are beautifully printed in colors and show on a large scale the streams, lakes, highways, trolley lines and railroads in New York, New beauty which had first attracted the eye! of Fitzgerald Fitzbiggins. Fitzgerald Fitzbiggins, our hero, white- haired and wrinkled, stood by the table, Dressed with scrupulous taste, he looked the part of the kindly old gentleman who played games and told stories for the chil- dren who took their airings in the parks, and who graced public meetings with his dignified presence. “Clarice,” he murmured, “don't you think that on a day like this, when there seems to be no news event of importance, we might get married ?" “Ah, Fit,” answered the old lady, peering at him roguishly through her spectacles, "I cannot tell you how many, many times I have hoped and prayed for a day when nothing would be going on.” “ Then come,” he said, assisting her to rise. “Let us go at once to a minister's and be "—— «Extra!

CHAPTER XXXxMv. “And here is the missing will!" shouted Fitzgerald Fitzbiggins, holding aloft the yellowed parchment. The finding of the last will and testament of Clarice Columnwidth, the aged spinster who died some years ago, makes it pos- sible to dispose of her estate, which has been in the control of the courts since her death, and has increased to great propor- tions, By its terms, which are curious, indeed, but in keeping with the character of the kindly old lady who was always an object of interest because of her many odd notions, the bulk of her estate is to go to the first young couple who promise never, under any circumstances, to subscribe for or accept as a gift, or read, any daily paper.
