Somewhat Embarrassing

An Atlanta man and a Macón ghi were going across on the Tarupa boat, says the Atlanta Constitntion. They had been engaged in a little winter flirtatíon during the two weeks' vacation oL the young man, and were sitting by themselves, engagei in taüung tipon the "blue, blue deep and the deep, deep blue," as Joaquín .Miller says. They noticed that the other passengers were regarding them with considerable Interest. The other people would gaze at the young couple and then make some remarks to each otber. Finally, a pretty little girl left the midst of the crowd and walked forward to the spot where the young couple were sitting and modestly handed them a magniñcent boquet of white flowers. "Here's some flowers they sent yon," she said demurely. The young couple were amazed, but accepted the flowers. They couldn't understand what the passengers meant by their attentions. While they were still wondering a kindly old lady with a grandmother face walked toward them with a bunch of lovely roses in her hand. "Here's a little boquet I brought you," she said, with a gracious smile. "It was the best I could do. and I wanted to give yon something. I know how it is with young couples who are just married. No, no, don't say a word, not a single word. I'm only too glad to give them to you." The young man came near tumbling overboard.
