Ernest's arrival caused quite a sensation among the marriageable girls because he was the pink of fashion. Also the arrival of Louise caused no less a sensation among the men. Judging from her haughty manners and aristocratic bearing it was fair to suppose that she likewise was one of the inordinately rich. Louise and Ernest paired off as a matter of course. She awed him with the few light remarks she let fall concerning her social position. But he, not to be outdone, had a telegram sent to himself supposed to come from an uncle, leaving him a million. But at the end of the week they part; Ernest to return his clothes back to the store where he rented them and Louise her silks and satins to the friend who owned them. Louise went back to her job of waitress and Ernest to his clerk's desk. And thus it might have ended had not Ernest dropped into a chop house for lunch. Louise faced him with a soup plate. They had deceived each other once, but they never could again, so they got married. Written by
