THE REPUBLIC: SUNDAY, JULY 26. 190b'.

" Did ycu know that a ee'taln young D;n-
edlck. who lately mid n rather "o'p
KiTi of marriage, who Is a very attraet've
man personallv. though l.a lias not what
might be te.rme.1 "staving qualities." once
paid numerous aril Iolr.lc0 attentions o a
jircttj Cnbanne girl., v.'ho has been In an
other city for the lat sis months She Is
plump as well n pretty s.nd has the finest
pair of houlder that an) body m'ght vvlsh
for en a summer's day.
The man used to t-ll her that she was a
perfect dream I think that was his word -In
a decollete sown, fo when he railed,
wnlch was about seven nights a week, n
Invariably put on a kov.ii that would d!
jilaj the pearly .shoulder-.
One night It wa" midwinter the girl's
parents decSSeJ that om- thins inu-l be
lone. The taarcd that the man would lure
their pretty daughtei o-u to Clnvton .T.3
inarrj htr offhand. In iev. of the man's
mbsetiunt hlstoij they tire Uite rignt
nut that 1 neither hero ior there. They
leeided. as 1 .iid, tliat s.rciiuous msa-iure
must be adopted.
The slrl'.s father Is the o'Jl of Sou'h'rn
jiolilcnes-. and he somehow did hate to as-t-!st
the chap out of doors with a forceful
paunt leather
Then he aIo hated to tell him even t.ic:
fullj that his calls were about -oven times
too numerous each wetk. lie and nn.nini
held a council of war and deelqej that tney
were up against it. a" Go rge Ade In-, s-aid
ulio other people. They linallv agr.jd en
strategy.
Mamma remembered her daughter's fond-r.e-s
for low-necKed govvi.s when the jojng
man was eapected So mamma suggested
that evening, as daughter a togplng up
In her bw-t. that -he wear a certain t.ii.i
black !aee dres that had no lining in the
waist, arid vvj" moreover. Cist low jdu it
the throat, with short sleeves that only
covered tlie upper p.iit of the arms, witn
lace full of big holes In the pattern. Daugh
ter fell right in with the idea.
Daughter unt downstairs that n'ght
looking s0 swett and dimply and Jt'n
gcther lovable that both mother's and fa
ther's heart sank wllh remorse as :h-y
(razed on her.
But they buoyed each other with the
thought that it was for her bet. and so
they smothered their feelings and rcsoli.u
to act What did they do?
Oh. just turned oft the heat In the fur
nace. Cards have reached this city announcing
the marriape of Mr. Ieon V Heuser to
Hiss Jfancy Maj Scott, at Farnissus. Pa.
Mr. Heuser has many friends in St Louis,
who will he gristed to learn that he v. Ill
In the future reside in Pennsvlvanij.
Soeietv Is indulging in considerable specu
lation concerning the matrimonial Intention-
wf a West Helle place girl who last spring
quietly told her Intimate friends that she
expected to marry a medical man ixom
Kari'ai CIt The engagement had no
Xormal announcement, I believe, though her
aunt did gi've a sweet-pea luncheon In her
honcr. B.'t the news had already been told
fcefore the function.
At all oei.ts this summer a certain good
looking juung banker has ben courting the
lady moi-t industriously, and the Kans.n
City doctor's chances are lessening day b
daj. Indeed. I louM if he has a show at
ah. for I pre the banker and the girl to
Kethr cver.vuhtie. and they wear an air of
unmistakable devotion that Is as far fnjn
anj thing platonlc as this tcrrestial sphere
Is from the Borelll comet.
I should net ha in the least surprised to
see some re-atly engraved wedding cards,
relative to this affair, by Sptemhr 21. The
Karsas City medical gentleman's name will
not be therein, of that jou may be sure.
While on this interesting topic o' cngnce
ments I am reminded of anothc- afialr
du coeur. which has not .-o far progressed
smoothly. That is the lady and gentleman
nre all right in their knowledge of and mu
tual trust In each uthci. but thcr." Ii tho
old. but ncverth.-less unpleasant, parental
objection. The girl Is a petite ind very
pretty South Side miss, thoush not Teutonic
.in her ancestry. Tho man also live? on the
South Side, and they have -o far ben
obliged lo conduct their courtship unur
very difficult circumstances tir papa and
mamma, the girl's parent, are. to be
sangy. "deid set agalnt" their daughter
marrying any rtil a wealthy m-n.
The man In question Is In modest, but by
no means Impoveilshed. circumstance-, and
will be able by fall to lit un .1 s.vali fiat
ery cozlly, and keep the refrigerator full,
besides.
I don't predict an elopement, for they nre
both far loo sensible for that. 1 rather
hink that papa and mamma will be won
over by October Let us hope so.
Miss Elizabeth Young's engagement was
rather a surprise to Si. Louis friends last
week and shared honors with that of Mr.
Houston T. Force and Ml-s TIchennr.
which was not. however, altogether unex
pected. Mls Young has not been here since her
sister. Mrs. Knight, ami brothcr-In-law.
Captain Knight, were at the barracks. Tiien
there were trolley parties galore and In
formal hop. I rememljer an especially jolly
one that Will J. Thornton gave one sum
mer evening, when the guests rode down
Jefferson Harracks way in a rtrlvatc car.
ate largely of all orts of dainties en route
and after reaching the barracks danced
merrily till almost sunup or wouldn't I
better say, reellle?
Elizabeth Young was then at Bishop
Itobeflson Hall and did not actively indulge
In these jollifications Her next older sis
ter. Marjory, who has since married a Phil
adelphia doctor, was the bairacks belle,
that year and plaxed hanc with the hearts
of a St. Iu1k newspaper mnn. a St. Louis
lawyer, a bachelor deioted to the Unhersily
Club, where he spends all of his time that
Is not ghen over to 'golf, and a cultured
German doctor not the one from Philadel
phia. Then she calmly gave lliem all the
mitten and went to New York to live a la
bachelor girl with three other "army girls,"
