AUi» CHAPTER XL. | Mrs. Glcason, the '.aivll-ady, fru- : quently came in to &it -with Mrs. Scanlan .in the afternoons. The fact that Mn. Scanlan's daujjhtcr had two Buit^rs h;'.(l not escaped her notice, and she v.-aa interested in getting such ir.formatiin s.a she could I'.n regard to their wocinir. | "Do you th'nk shsll ♦)€ Mrs. Pat-: rick Maguire?" I "Oh. n3. lie's just a friend of hers. There's noUiinR at all between tliam." "Now I'm sorry to 'hear thjjt. I w;'s h aping maybe he'd ask her. Why, ^e's jrot mi'.'.ionj, eo they say." | "I don't know aa that would make BJiy (VfTciencc to Nora." i "It would be a strarKO thinjf if it woii'.Jn't. There's mifihty fcv/ young pri^s tJiat it wou'. In't make a differ- ence to; rii'l a woman that's been throu;fh wh.it youT ('i.'Ufrhtor has â€" we''.!, it's A sure thinfr to me that if she uoC-'ii't marry him it's I)ecauj8 he never asked her." I "Vou can think about that as you ] Vke," returned Mrs. Scan'.an, with a' flpsh of her o'.J-time spirit. "I don't inqu'je into m.itters that don't con- cern me, and it'3 a good ru'.c for: every one." j Tiie door opened, and Nora entered, ; followed by Maguire; they looked i £mi'in? and haupy. , "Mother, I've some great news fori you," said Nora, ccmini? forw-ard and | fmtt'n;; her arm around Mr.». Sean- 1 an's •Kv.-^-t. "I'm going to marry Pat-j rick Maguire this very evening." j Mrs. Scan'.an wa.s speechless and unresponsive while her daughter kis-| se-.l her and Mag"aire smiled tind I bowed. Not EO Mrs. Gleasoii; her^ voice £oared triumi-'haiitly. | "There, no^v, I v/a^n't so far off. ' When I saw you two getting out of that avlcmobile, I says, 'I v/onJer if | it's an cleptmcnt; I wonder if there's' beer, a secret marji'agc,' I says?. Well, sufkk-n is next thing to secret, ar.<l taking your folk-s by surprise is next door to eloping, &o I don't see butj what I liit it pretty near right." 'Rut, Nora, I thoughtâ€"-" began Mrs. Scan'.an. Her daughter pi"ompt'y checked; h-er. I "'\'c«, mother, but it's al! settled now. Here, Patrick, yon arui mother i had better kis^ each oH\er." Maguire perfonned his pert of the ; ceremony with snrightnno.-vs and gal-j lantry, but Mrs. Scarian subm<itted as one fJ'azod and still unreconciled. "It ain't v.hat I expected; that's' nil I can say," she remarked mourn- 1 fully. I D.ive, who just then came in mani- feate.l ittrong disapproval; at first he wa.s flaLly incredulous, then he was hotly indignant. I "Uut no lonarer a.cro th'an yesterdiy you -were telling me that you and â- lerry v. ore soon to 1)0 married!" he cried. "Whnt'n got into you, Nora? You're throwing over a good man to t'e up to a rich one â€" that's what you're doing. You made one TO,'..i'.ako' throwir.g over .Terry Donohuo- mind thiit. If you do it again, you'll dc-; !wr.*e no better than what came to' you last time." I "Forgive me, Dave. Forgive me, and be nice to me â€" the niglit I'm to ba nvirri-'d." i 'Oh, I can forgive you. But hcwj abotit Jerry?" "I suppose he'll fiml it hard. But' I knov,' I'm not the kind of wife lie wan;<, arJ truly, Dave, ho's often R3 much as told me so. I think wo bol !i only loved each other some- ' fmc^.i." j "â- | wonder how long you've Ixen Iov,';.g Miguire all the time." N"i-i was silent. "You'd l;.;tter reconsider, Nora." Sha shook her head. "No, Dave Ycu can't underct."»n(l, but I'm ju.'-t as rv.fp as I can he, tluit whr.t I'v.x doing is right for all of us." j "TSo vou tliink it's riglit not even to let .lorry know'/" I "l think it's better." | "You'ri ji it going to let him find' It out for h'.mso'.tV f'-riic hcu'luU.-].

' Y...i.i i'utlcr r'nange your nviiid t?*(.:3 i'.'i too late." "Notliing could nuike me change now, Dave." He looked at her steadily for a moment, shock his head, and walked away. She heard him ascending tlie shair^ to his little room. There was a knock on the door and Mii:s Sms entered. .She at least showed happy e;<cit£ment. Mrs. Glcason had told her; sha felt sha must ju.=t run in and say hov/ won- derful iha thought it was. So much romance in it â€" getting married the same day you were engaged! It was beautiful. Nona kissed har; and tears of hap- pinDfs stood in Miss Sim'.s eyes. "Sis- ter," that kiss had seemed to say. Dave ap'pcared, and tlirn a few mo- ments later Mrs. Glea.5on, with her plump figure encased iin lavender i'oulard and with a lavender h.Tt mounted upon her auburn liair. Still in an exclamatory mood, she bestowed compliments and congratulations as liivkhly as if she had not alitady re- leased n shower of them. While sha was paying homage to Mr.?. Sc-anlan's dress, Mi'^s Sim.? v/as about to slip away, but Dave signaled to Nora with his eyos. So Ncra said, "Oh, Miiss Sims, don't go. Do stay and come â- with us to the wedding." "Oh, thank you, i\Irs. Corcoran. Oh, thank you, I should love to." The delicate tinge of {.'ink thiit cov- ered the gii'l's countcp.ance from the small chin to the high ehcck-bones and the wide forehead made her look almost pretty, onvpliaoi/ied the inno- cence and sensitiveness of her face. Norn noticed it and with a qwckened sympathy stepi)ed forward arjj kissed her. The young girl's eyes shone, and she glarct-d at Dave with a radi- ant Emile. Nora noticed tliat, too, and thou.fj'ht it fortunate that fate h:'.d throv.n Dave and thi.s good, sweet, little girl together. In tliis happy hour Nora wished to forecast and p.'-onioto the haijpiness of those about her. She sjv/ for Dave and his quiiet wife a psaceful, contented life and growing pro.-perity; Patrick Ma- guire would assist them to that. .She saw for her mother a serene old age, free frcm worries an! cares; Patrick Ma.guire would provide for that. She might even have concerned her.self for n fleeting moment with .Mr.-;. Gleason's future, but the sound of a motor ear stopping in front of the house made thoughts about the land- lady imj-.oj.-r'blc. Dave reached the v/indow and announced, "It's your man, Nora." Maguire came upstairs; he was stiil wearing his gray-green suit, but he had a white carnation in his but- tonhole and carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley, which he present- ed to Nora. Sha introduced hi'm to .Mi.-is Sims, with whom he shook hands cordially, saying, "Pleased to laiow j you, Mi.-(.? Sims. Pkas'cil to have you get into the ta.xi with U3 â€" lots of room for everybody." | "Oh, thank you ever so much." Surely no one could doubt, looking at her face, tliat this evening was full of iiappines.s for Miss Sima. Welcoming the v.-edJing party into his study, the priest was jovial and merry; he ci ngratulated Nora on having brok^Mi down the defenses of ,w v.ell e.dabll.ihed a bachelor as Pat- rick .Maguire. Tlie marriage ceremony was brief; after pronouncing the pjiir man and wife Fallur t'leary g.ivc a hand to the bride and then to tho bridegroom. Patrick k:8.se<l Nora and turned to face tho others.
