The Steel Engraving Lady sat by the
open easement, upon which rested one
slender arm. Her drapery sleeve fell
back, revealing the alabaster wilderness
of her hand and wrist. Her glossy.
abundant hair was smoothly drawn
over her ears, and one rose nestled in
the coil of her dark locks.
Suddenly a heavy step was heard
upon the stair. A slight blush mantIed
the Steel Engraving Lady's cheek. .
Can That be Reginald?" she said.
The door flew open and in the thresh-
old stood the Gibson Girl.
Excuse me for dropping in upon
you. she said with a silent nod, tossing
a golf club down upon the sofa near by.
You see I've been appointed to write
paper on Extinct Types and / am
anxious to scrape acquaintance with
you
The Steel Engraving Lady bowed a
trife stitfiy.

with dignity
The Gibson Girl dropped into low
chair and crossed one knee over the
other: then she proceeded to INSPECT tbe
room. whistling meanwhile a snatch
from the last comic opera. She wore n
short skirt and heavy. square-toed
shoes. mannish collar, cravat and
vest, and broad-brimmed felt hat tin
ped iauntly upon one side.
She stared quite fixedly at the fair
occupant of the apartment, who could
with difficulty conceal her evident an
noyance
Dear me, you're just as slender and
ethereal as any of your pictures" she
remarked speculatively. You need
fresh air and exercise: and see the col

The Steel Engraving Lady glanced
at her vis-a-yis and shrugged her shout

When the sun set the Steel Enrrov-
