“You‘re early, my boy,“ said the old
gentleman; and Ralph answered, plung-

“I came early, father, because I have
something to tell you." ,

“Well. no,” Ralph answered, raising
i his head, and looking his father full in

The fact is, father, I am married."
"Well. what of it?" was Mr. Yorke‘s
only comment. ‘
Ralph stared in utter amazement. His
father seemed perfectly unmoved. His
face betrayed no sign of anger, and he
was playing careless] with his watch
chain, as if Ralph ha been discussing
his last dinner party. Presently he con~
tinned:
“It is a folly that other men have
committed before ~you. There is not
much to be said on the question. “'1“

“I thought that was enough for one

splendor of the visitors.
