was flattered, naturally. To receive,
without seeking, what score OF other
girls sought vainly, had a distinct charm
OF its own, and Lord Gaiasford had the
advantage of being old enough 10 know
tie world and its ways. He was dis
t.nctly high bred. He was handsome in
his own way, and manly, as the best type
OF Englishman always is. Why sne

could not have told you. Indeed she
thought that very possibly she should be
later on.
One night they were sitting out a dance
which she had promised him. He had
persuaded her to go INTO the conservatory
instead of dancing, and she sat on low
seat over which some strange, foreign
plant leaned An odor that seemed like
incense burned at the shrine of some old
time god half intoxicated her And there
and then Lord Gainsfsrd told his love

seemed TO her as IL she heard voice from
far. oh, SO far, away-a voice that said:
'.waitr' And just then. before she had
spoken at all. her partner for the next
dance appeared and Lord Galnsiord said,
with that cool self-possession that be-
lopged to his axe and his rank: Il shah
sac you Tomorrow"
That night sleep did not come to Jasmyn-
She lay with wide-open eyes, vaguely
wondering. What should she say TO Lord
Gainsford? Could she love hinl-and why
not? Would she be happy as his wife?
How much there would be TO make her so!
Then suddenly il seemed 90 her as if the
room opened its windows to the stars and
the infinite night, and she looked lar, lar
off. as perhaps We all shall look when
death has iaEen us by the hand and led us
far away from what we now call life
She knew that her vision had gone be-
yond the sea and that IL was a room
in New York in which she saw young

And when she had read thus far il
seemed to her that suddenly the windows
that had opened to the vastness OF the
night were closed and she was alone.

she had heard in the conservatory, one
word" Wait!"
Yes, she would wait She would de

her side and drew a long, calm breath,
and then sleep, the delinquent, kissed
her parted lips and led her, at last, into
dreamland.

his own cause. but he pleaded in vain.

1t was raining heavily when two women
got on an uptown Broadway car at Four

Here said the younger woman, lets

hers into the opening between the base
of the window and the top of the seat.

''Oh, conductor, get it for me, please,
she pleaded.
I'D like to-" he exclaimed, "but I'm too
busy to fish for it. Ride up to the end of
the line and they will get it for you there
A well-dressed young fellow took the
other woman's umbrella, murmuring: per
NIT me, please" and tried with it to dig
up the other umbrella. He worked about
two minutes ard then lest his hold on the
umbrella he was using and it slipped down
to join its fellow Every one laughed
except the women. The young man jumped
off the car into the rain.
A minute later another man began poking
down the opening with hisumbrella. Some
thing caught the Silk as he was drawing it
out and tore a long slit. He looked at the
rent for a moment ,grittcdh dhiSteeth, and then
he, too, jumped off into the rain.

WALWORTH,

Major Moses P. Handy gets pretty en-
phatic about the new woman when he talks
about her. He says this new woman" talk
is all rot, and that womanhood is not a
matter of bonnets or bustles, bicycles or
bloomers, clubs or cocktails, night keys or
nightgowns, straddle or side saddle. The
new woman is a figment of the imagina-
ton, made up of fads, foibles, crochets, as
piratious and tendencies thrown together
in a Kaleidoscope, presenting a new COM
binatiOn of form of color at every turn of
