“Wljat’s in a $ame?” watched the little birds “Teeter” on the branches above them, and listened to the sweet music of the “Brooke” as it gurgled its way along to turn the wheels of the “.Mills” and to furnish bread and butter For the “Miller.” They sat entranced. Suddenly he spake in accents soft and low: “ “Darling.” will you be; mine?” In whispered as he “Drew” her soft hand into his. QKM hi arm they strolled through the “Bright’’ “Fairfield” and into the still silent forest where only tin “Russell of the leaves could In heard. Slowly they entered the quaint, “Brown” “Bauer” and “ “Bray” Sir, unhand me!” replied the haughty maid. With dejected countenance and downcast eyes our hero spake, as he looked into the still silent “Wells” of her eves: “My own light of my life: better than any electric bull's-eye, I have always been at your “Buck” and call and ever have 1 been as the most abject “Kerr.” groveling at your feet. My only “Ames” in life have been to win your love. Oh! sweet (Juinevcre let not your “Mart” be of stone! Do not go into a “Huff” and stamp your “Shapely” “Foote.” These cruel “Knox” sear and “Pierce” their fiery way into the innermost recesses of my sensitive spirit. It “Burns” far worse than a red-hot brand.” So pleaded the red-faced Rudolph with his lady-love. “Oh “Shaw!” Quit your kidding,” came in a voice as sweet as a “Carol” from the ruby lips of our heroine. “Look over the “Meadows!” ” she continued, “and see how tin “Cray” storm clouds are marshaling their thunderous forces. See how they “Chase” each other over the sky. We had better be making tracks for our paternal “Hall.” Thus warned the cruel Guinevere. Sadly. Rudolph ascended from his recumbent posture, and with bent head proceeded. In silence they passed the “Pond” where a lonely “Fisher” stood like a “Sargent” on guard. Now there came a thunderous “Echo” from the “West” ami now a blinding flash of lightning. “Oh dear! Rudolph, what shall we do,” came in an agonized wail from the now terrorized Guinevere. “If it “Rains” il will spoil my new hat!!!” “Alas gentle maiden,” spoke the brave Rudolph, “Hardy” as an oak tree, “I have not got a “Penney” to my name but let us hie us hither and seek shelter in yonder house.” Together they approached the huge doors of “Wood” which separated them from warmth and happiness. Shivoringly they punched the “Bell” and waited in damp agony. The door was opened by the “Cook,” the stern “Warden” of the pantry. In trembling accents they told their tale of woe. The girl ushered them into a cheery room, the “Parsons” study, she called it. And so it came to pass that the brave Knight and his gentle lady were joined that day in the metropolis of “Hopkins,” by the mighty bonds of matrimony. Moral: Variety is the “Salt ” of life.
