kind of your ma to ask us here We
think everything of DR.. Lisle, you know;
there's just nobody like him. And to
think that poor Mr.. Smith might have
been cripple all his days through such
little thing as bit of grease dropped
on the stairs!"
Here Frances ventured to suggest that
the fracture might have been equally
well attended to by some other medical
mana remark Mrs. Smith negatived at
once, with very knowing shake Of the
head Then she resumed the converse
ton by reverting to the topic which was
never far from her thoughts.
at so happened that Johnny came
home today, him and his great friend,
Mr.. Josselyn. They've been travelling
together on the Continent ever since
they left college. We couldn't leave
them at home alone the very first even

them with u.s. Why here they are, /

Frances said Mrs. Lisle, II want to
introduce Mr. John Smith, Junior, to
you, and his friend. Mr.. Josselyn-my
eldest daughter, Miss Lisle."
Mrs. Lisle then sank into the chair by
Mrs. Smith which Frances vacated, and
left the girl face to face with two young
men. One tall, fair and distinguished
looking. the other short and dark, with
clean shaven. clever face, and wear
ing double eyeglasses. The latter began
the conversation, as his friend stood by,
twirling his long, fair mustache i'll some
slight embarrassment After exchang-
ing few commonplace, Frances seized
an opportunity to move ON and speak to
other visitors. AS soon as she was out
of hearing, the tall young man caught
his friend by the arm. by Jove, Jack,

face like that in all our travels. What

Later on, when DR.. Lisle had returned
from his round, dined and established
himself in an easy chair with his cigar,
he said to his wife, who sat by him:

Frances. She seems to me to have come

fellow. ! say, Milly, he called on me

The night of the party arrived. DIR.
Lisle's house was lit up from roof to
basement, carriages and cabs steadily
deposited their occupants at the door,
and the large double drawing rooms
were filling fast. Among the earliest
arrivals were Mr.. and Miss Fitzhardy.
Frances contrived to whisper to her dear
friend that they had been obliged to ask
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith. "of Smith and
Trewson, you know"
"Oh, dear. how amusing" said that
young lady; get all my frocks therel

that her august visitor took the matter
so affably.
"Do you know am quite curious to
see them, Frances" Miss Fitzhardy
went on, with little laugh. al don't
think | ever met people of that sort out
anywhere before" A remark which,
although uttered in the most innocent
manner, sent sudden food of crimson
over Frances fair face and neck, and
she was glad enough to turn to Mr..
Fitzhardy and hear what he had to say
about new collection OF pictures he
had been inspecting that afternoon.
Meanwhile the crowd grew thicker
and thicker and the hum of voices louder
and louder. Some one was play ing a
ford piece on the grand piano in the
larger room, but Frances, at the other
end Of the small drawing room. could
hear little of the performance above the
hubbub of conversation. Suddenly she
caught her mothers eye, evidently
searching for her. She made her way
TO her as quickly as she could.

Smith; remember she knows no one

A minute later the girl found herself
seated by stout elderly lady in a rich
velvet dress, adorned with lovely lace,
which was fastened at the throat by a
magnificent diamond ornament. Above
this elegant finery beamed a large,
round, rosy, good humored face.

my dear" she said. 1--WE heard about

Frances had no reply ready; none was
needed, for Mrs. Smith, feeling herself
upon an inexhaustible subject, continued
without pausing longer than to take
| breath.
II dare say you think it's funny for me
to call my son Johnny and he such a
fine grown up young fellow, aud taken
his degree and all that. but you see Mr..
Smith is John and Johnny he's John
