She often wished father would not snore so loudly. But that wasn't what had made her awake so suddenly. Romeo was waiting outside. In a few minutes she was ready. Romeo had climbed on the roof of the porch under her window, and when she came out, he took her suitcase. Are you all ready, Juliet? Are you sure you have everything ? in- quired Romeo. I think I have, she replied, but why are you looking so alarmed ? I thought I heard something then. You did, but that's only father's snoring. By this time they were on the ground. Oh! Romeo, she whispered, I forgot my powder puE. Let's get it some other time, said Romeo uneasily. We'd better leave in a hurry, or they might wake up before we start. They walked about a block to where his roadster was parked, and got into it hurriedly. After they had left Blackford a few miles behind them, Juliet started talking. I didn't hear you at first because I was still asleep. I didn't in- tend to sleep so long, but I was rather tired. I had to help entertain father's friend, Mr. J. S. Burns, who was visiting until last night. I don't know Where he lives. He marries a lot of people, and, in jest, he asked when I wanted him to marry me. Father said I wouldn't be old enough to get married for several years. I didn't say anything though, she added. It was such a lovely moonlight night that she looked at the fields they were passing for a while in silence. Then she thought of her powder puE. I'll get you a dozen after we're married, he said. After they had reached Higgsville that morning, about eight o'clock, rnd Romeo had their license, he asked where the justice of the peace was. When he had found out, they immediately went to his office. They were both rather excited as they went up the steps, but when they opened the door, she fainted. For there was J. S. Burns, himself. -Paul Geiger. AN EPITAPH Here lie the bones Of Bobby Jones, Who fell ill at the table, A pill he took But failed to look First at the bottle's label. -Wilbur Zbinden. 1926 IPAGE 501
