kCJ llllO uiSCuSSiOuS Nllll OllC S Sclis And doing the sweet, old-fashioned gown up into a bundle, Peggy saun tered down to the village dressmaker and, after leaving there, decided shed just run in and see if Widow Fuckers boy was recovering from slow fever.
 It was poor little cottage into which Peggy wended her way, and the widow herself looked half.fed.
 "l don't believe you've had any din ner today" thought Peggy, "and as you're too proud to ask for it, I'll have to plan"
 "Why don't you take walk while sit by Jamie and tell him stories?" she said, aloud. And, by the way, il you're going by my house just stop in and get my cape and tell Hannah to give you your dinner, It will save you cooking here"
 The widow gladly went, and Peggy amused herself and Jamie inventing stories.
 While in the middle of one she glanced up and beheld Howarth Overalle stand. ing in the doorway with look of rapt admiration on his face.
 Do you come here often?" was his first remark.
 Never" she replied, while Jamie's eyes dilated to such an extent one would know she was not telling the truth.
 What are you here for?" he asked.
 "My laundry" was the brief reply.
 hn- har,,n 41,,.A,,.rh light, and Peggy after that took more interest than ever in her gown for the Third"
 The evening came and with it Jack Leslie for Peggy, and when he saw her he exclaimed:
 Why, Peggy Hildreth, you lovely little picture! I'm almost tempted to carry you off by main force, you look so beautiful"
 "Well, you needn't" serenely re- marked Peggy, as she gathered her opera cloak around her and let him put her into the carriage.
 Words of admiration could be heard from all sides as she entered the Ina l with her escort. And she did look AlN kOAutil CullS NtTt RdlhtItA on to the top of her head, and the beautiful brocade was moderni2ed. Slippers had been made to match the gown, and although Peggy took only three boot, she had squeezed her foot into two, the result being before the evening was half over in one giving way when she was dancing with Capt, Van Leaten.
 Now" said Peggy, philosophically, "l am finished for dancing. All ] can do is to tlirt."
 No such thing" said the captain 'T shall send for more slippers" and he was as good as his word.
 When they came Peggy was sur. rounded by admirers, and holding up the prctty.brolten slipper, she said:
 Now what do you bid for it?"
 "A box of gloves" said Jack Leslie.
 1.-Two boxes" said Capt. Van Leaten
 "l'll go you one better and offer three boxes and five.pound box of candy" exclaimed an ardent admirer.
 Peggy saw Mrs. Hildreth gazing at her in horror, and with her eyes dane. ing with mcrriment she said:
 Come quickly! Bid away! I'll marry the highest bidder!"
 "A diamond bracelet"
 ''DiamOnd pinr'
 1.-Two tickets for Pattip'
 And so the bids rattled on an pe9gy found herself the center of I.rge and admiring circle and she began to wish she was well out of it all.
 At that moment Mr. Overalle ap- peared, and stepping forward quickly, said:
 "I offer overall" And Peggy laugh ingly called: "Gonew and started waltzing with the highest bidder.
