Revelation
it Came After a Very Un
pleasant Experience
By DONALD CHAMBERUN
I was brought up wltli Agnes Atber
tou us my girl churn, for I believe that
boys tuny luive girl chums aa -well as
boy chums. When we arrived at an
use at which the sexes mate there wag
no change between Agnes and me
from friendship to love.
This state of affairs continued be
tween ns until I became smitten with
Lillian (irny. and the Hrst person—the
• •nl.v person, in fact—to whom I con
tilled the matter was Agnes.
When I (old her of it I noticed a
slijilil contraction of the muscles of the
face.
"You don't approve?" I said.
' I neither approve nor disapprove."
she replied.
"Well?"
"A choice made by one In love Is a
lev. choice. not the result of Judgment.
Vim have. I dare say. chosen through
love, ami even if I knew Lillian Gray
I en to make a judgment choice
for you it would avail nothlug. for you
would nut think of abiding by It. In
I would not expect you to abide
by it."
"Nevertheless 1 perceive that you are
not ially pleased with the girl who
();!•■• charmed t:ie."
"Nor displeased with her. Vou have
nor :i-\<-«! me t<> ph'k out n wife for
you."
"If I had you would uot have picked
mil Lillian."
"There is itolhiug to her discredit in
Papoose I should fall in love with
a man. lln-n ask you to pick out a hus
band for me. Do you suppose you
selei t the man 1 had chosen?"
• No. I wouldn't," I snapi>ed.
1 could not deline even uow exactly
v. it w .s in her ipustion that caused
*i e -i! t'ieii. I supposed at the time 1
. iiii'leil i ecuuse Agnes did not show
any enthusiasm over my sweetheart.
My w.inis ended the discussion, nnd we
pro Tilled to other subjects.

J. y ■ v,u«lastlc. Indeed. I would have
liiv.-il Acnes to love her as well as I.
•V," , iti>i uncut conversation with Ag
,, -ub.iect after I had become
Lillian 1 told her this, and
. was that there was no more
r. '<nnv.)v ,he should love any partly
..ir; ^ause I loved her than that
I should love any particular roan be
cause she loved him.
••That's all bosh." I exclaimed. Men
don't love men."
This was the second time that I was
irritated at a remark of Agnes con
cerning my affair, and a second time It
or. Vd a discussion of the subject.
I A not her matter troubled me i™
„ot approved by Lillian's parents But
there was an especial reason for this.
V,..v wished their daughter to marry
n wealthy man. I was doing Pr*"y
well and had some prospects but that
did not satisfy Mr. and Mrs Gray.
,.ir :tiin for Lillian was an cstabllsh
,..,t she had an excellent position In
v. which they desired her to keep
after marriage, and they were we I
..wire that this would require a for
tune i••dependent of anything they
co'ild give her. ..
, did not blame Lillian for bcing dl^
ti-s-ed at their opposition. A very
vinmg love for me on her part was re
quired to induce her to give up a life
t<) which she had always been accus
tomed in opposition to her parents
wishes I saw plainly that a struggle
was coin* on within her. and after de
ui.,,. i offered to release her. She
be released. I told bet

le.w for no couple could be happy to
other when one was pining for the
unattainable. She replied that ehe
eonl.l not and would not give me up.
r.ui the matter dragged. Her par
would not give their consent to
our marriage, and since LlHian did not
UUo to marry me without It there
seemed to be no prospect of any out
come At last I told her that she must
fo one thing or the other, either marry
me or break with me. and after^much
deliberation, in which I detected «•
much unwillingness to give 0P jh
fashionable world as to act contra*
to the wishes of her parents, she de
cided to marry me. But she stlpolat
ed that our wedding must be without
t-.c knowledge of her parents. We
would ','o fo a clergyman be married,
she would return to her home confess
what she had done and secure forgive
ness. after which we would live to
gether as man and wire.
I did not like this plan at all. I
ur-'od Lillian to do nothing secretly
Site replied that she knew her
letter than I and could better Judge
what course was best to pursue with
them. 1 told her that anything clan
•Vtine was foreign to my nature and
friinklv confessed that 1 would prefer
to "ive her up than act underhanded^
she burst into tears. Every oae taows

d OnebSterVnoon I called with u.f car
on Lillian, ostensibly to ttfffe her for a
drive, really to go with her to a clergy
man and be married. Sbo hud collid
ed her intention to a bosom friend of
hers, a Bessie Angell, and desired that
she be present at the ceremony. She
claimed that there should be witnesses,
so I asked my friend Arnold Brown to
be of the party. These two were to
meet us at the parsonage.
Lillian was trembling when she en
tered the car. On the way she said
nothing to me, and when i spoke to
her she replied by monosyllables. 1
realized that she was not in a condi
tion of nullk'lent equanimity to take
the most importiint step In a woman's
life.
"There is yet time,'1 I said, "to re
treat from this step.'
"No," she replied faintly. "I am
going through with it."
I was half minded to stop the mat
ter wbero it was. but when we arc
half minded we are as liable to decide
wrong as right. I drove on to the par
sonage and pulled up before the door.
"Go In," she said, "and see If they
are all there; then come back for me."
"Hadn't you better go in with meV" I
asked.
"No; I won't be married without
Bess."
Always persuaded to what I did not
approve of, I went to the front door,
rang the bell and was admitted. I
found Arnold Brown waiting for me.
but no Bessie Angell. Stepping to the
telephone, 1 called up her home and
asked for her. She came to the tele
phone, and 1 asked her why she was
not at the parsonage. She replied that
she had not been certain from what
LUllac had said to her when they bad j
last met whether the wedding would
come off or uot. To this I expressed
surprise. After a dialogue, very unsat
lsfactory to me, it was agreed that she
should hold the wire while I went out
to Lillhm. and if I returned with :i re
quest from her friend to come to the
parsonage she would come at once.
Settlug down the receiver, 1 ran out to
the car.
It was where I bud left it, but no
Lillian.
My heart went down like lend. I
looked In every direction, though not
expecting to see her. Flight was a fit
ting climax to the vacillation she had
shown. 1 stood on the steps, wonder
ing what to do.
When we are in a hole we naturally
turn to something or some one to pull'
us out. I thought of Agnes Athcrton.
My own Judgment had been led so far
astray by Lillian that 1 could not at
once get it In working order. I didn't
know what to do about Arnold Brown.
I 6hrank from telling him I had been
left In the lurch by one I was about to
make my life partner. Returning toj
him, I said:
"Arnold, mere is a iiitcii; wait Here i
Oil I straighten It out."
He saw that I was flurried and told
uie to go slow; he would wait for me
there till the crark of doom. lliirryinii
out, I drove to Agnes' home, and fortu
nately I found her there.
I told her the whole story.
I had thrown myself on a sofa, and
she sat down beside mo, taking my
hand In hers soothingly.
"It seems to me," she said, "that
there la nothing for you to do but tell
the truth to your friend. Mr. Brown,
and that will end the matter."
"I dare say you're right, but I would
rather do a six mouths' term in state
prison than confess to him that I have
been such a fool"—
I stopped short, and for a few mo
ments there was silence between us, at
the end of which Agnes asked:
"Has Mr. Brown ever seen"—
"Lillian? No."
"I'll tell you what I'll do for you.
You seem all cut up, and I would like
to help you out My law of action is
the iutent I will go with you to the i
parsonage, marry you, and we will ,
have the marriage annulled at our
leisure."
Never in so short a space of tlmo
was n revelation made to any human
being. Here was a woman, worthy of
the devotion of the best man living,
whom I had turned down for the
weakest It all came upon me with
sledgehammer force. Clasping Agnes
In my arms, I said:
"It will never be annulled with my
consent"
Hastening to a phone, I called up the
parsonage, got Arnold and said:
"Tho tangle is unraveled. I and the
bride will be with you presently."
In less than half an hour Agnes and
I were In the parsonage. I introduced
her to Brown; then the clergyman was
called from his study and performed
the wedding ceremony, neither he nor
the single witness suspecting that in a
twinkling there had been a change in
the bride.
After the ceremony there were still
several hours before the end of the
day, and I drove my wife Into the
country. What passed between us
could not be condensed within a few
words. I would not care to give it if
it were possible. We settled our mu
tual affairs to the satisfaction of both,
Aimes confessing before our return
that when I told her of my engage
ment I gave her a shock since she had
always wished me for herself. And so
It turned out that Instead of getting a
girl who was not worthy of me I got
one of whom I was not worthy. We
arranged our affairs so that no one
would be shocked at the hastiness of
our marriage and lu due time appeared
before the world as man aud wife.
Lillian Gray Is married ,to a very
wealthy man. Whether or not she re
grets me I don't know, but I doubt if
she realized the weakness she display
ed In her relations with me. Agnes
says that Lillian is so wrapped up in
the world of fashion thiit she doubtless
looks upon her affair with me as a nar
row escape from a very foolish move, a
move that would have condemned her
to a humdrum life.
