After several terse periods of severe cogitation, he decided that Angela Havens would make Wood B. Wedd the finest sort of a wife. When he broke the news to Wood B., that gentleman was distinctly pleased, Angela suited his own ideas a great deal more than several of Darby's selections. With all the ardor of his romantic disposition, Wood B. courted her, and at last, she accepted him. But he reckoned without Araminta, a poor working girl. Once or twice Wood B. smiled at her and each time, Araminta's heart fluttered with delight. When Araminta learned that her heart's adored had fallen into the clutches of the designing Angelia, she immediately attempted suicide in eight different ways. Since none of them were particularly effectual, she cast about for some other means of giving expression to her true feelings. The means she finally chose was a sleeping mixture. On the morning of Wood B. Wedd's wedding day, Araminta put the aforesaid sleeping mixture into Wood B. Wedd's coffee. Shortly afterwards, Wood B. arrived at a sudden conviction that sleep was the most blessed of Nature's gifts. So he slept. The time for the ceremony drew near. Still he slept. Darby Jenks shook him by the shoulder, jumped on his stomach, and treated him generally without consideration, and still he slept. Finally, by means of alarm clocks, gongs, ice water, and severe physical chastisement. Wood B. was partly aroused. As soon as his friends ceased their ministrations. Wood B. returned to his slumbers. When they finally got him thoroughly aroused, it was the minute of twelve. The wedding was to take place at noon. It means little to say that Wood B. dressed hurriedly, and so rushed to the church. No mere words can express his flight through the obstacles in his path, and when he got there, it was too late, Angela had gone home. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
