TEARFUL BRIDE WHO WAITED.
Tears streaming down the cheeks of a young woman gave a curtain-raiser to a little drama of London's crowded streets, featuring a tactful policeman and a disillusioned girl. The policeman saw the weeping girl in Parliament Street, Westminster, and asked if he could help her. She said she was French, and was on her way to Caxton Hall to be married. At Westminster her sweetheart left her, saying he would be away only a few minutes. An hour later he was still missing. Xhe policeman suggested that he might have missed her and gone on to Caxton Hall. She dried her tears, and, with renewed hope, found her way to the registry office. But to no avail. For there she discovered that they could not have been married anyway. Xo notice of marriage had been given. "Oh," she said, "but he told me we could just w'alk in at any time and get married." Tearful again, she was swallowed up in London's millions.
