one Of those clean. trim girls Won sec now

and to begin with, locked well-fed.
healthy and strong. She looked as
though she had good sensible mother
at home. Her face and neck and ears
and her hair were clcan-chsolaselv
clean. How seldom you see that. There
was no powder, no paint OF the smooth,
rounded cheek or firm. dinpled chm.
none on the moist red lips: none on the
shelI-tinted, but no. too small ears. none
on the handsomely set neck-rather
broad behind. perhaps, bnt running
mighty prettlly up into the tightly
corded hair. And the hair, 1t was Of
light chestnut brown and glistcned
with specks Of gold as the sun shonc on
1t, and there was not smear Of oil or
pomatum on it, and not a pin 10 be seen
in it.
AS the girl came in and took her seat
she cast an easy. uncmharrassc,l glance
around the car from well-oprned gray
eye, bright with the snimltable Hght of
"good condition, such as YOU sec in
some handsome younc athletes who are
in training" There were 10 tags AMI
ends, fringes, furbelows or fluttering
ribbons about her closely fitting but
easy suit of tweed, and, as shs drew off

which was solid hand, with plenty of
muscles between the tendons and with
strong but supple fingers. 1t would
