Social Function
OF the Season
.:..s..s.s.
Brilliant Ball at Southern Pines
Hotel Tuesday Evening.
The most thoroughly en-
joyable social function of the
season was the ball given on
Tuesday evening, at the
Southern Pines Hotel, under
the auspices of Miss Prudence
Giles.
The spacious dining-room
was cleared and handsomely
decorated for the occasion.
Over $50 were present, from
adjacent points and the town,
and about 40couples were con
stantly on the floor from $50
to 11.3O 2. NJ, after which
all retired to their respective
homes with nothing but
words of praise for Mine
Host Giles and his most ex-
cellent wife and charming
daughter.
The music, which was of
the highest order, was rend-
cred by the Hotel Orchestra
under the able direction of
Prof. Giles.
Want of space precludes
the possibility of giving the
lanes of those who pa1'tivf.
pated, but all present we're
agreed on the verdict that
this was the most successful
dance in the history Of the
hotel.
Preparations are being
made for a. grand masque-
rade ball at the same place in
the near future, the date
probab bly, being fixed in time
for announcement in our
next issue. The following
named have been selected as
a committee of arrangements:
Mesdames H. O. Parker, G.. L.

taught how to nurse the sick by the good
sisters at the convent.
Her art in this matter was a revelation
to Dorrington.
1t seemed to him that the vitality OF the
girl was abnormally developed.
No matter how long she had been on her
feet during the day, no matter how much
sleep she had lost, a sign from Nan would
bring her to the chlds bedside in a flash,
and she was as prompt with poor Peter
Valicombe.
1t is unnecessary to 60 into all the de-
tails of the treatment which Zepherine's pa
tients received at her hands.
She insisted on having her own way, and
In almost every instance 1t turned out to be
the better way.
This was especially true of her treatment
n poor Peter Valicombe.
7 Doctor Dorrington had told her more than
lonce that it would be almost impossible for
Mr.. yalicombe TO recover.
Zepherine, however insisted that IL was
absolutely necessary that he should recover.
She clung to the idea and worked in the
light of il. and finally her faith was re-
warded.
Mr. Valicombe became convalescent, and
at the first fitting opportunity the doctor
had when Zepherine was out of hearing, he
told tbe patient that he owed his life to
Miss Johns.
"Ail right. all right" said Mr.. Naiicomoe'
"she will lose nothing by that
81 will make her very glad o. II"
Vixen the doctor resumed the regular

ders, as Frenchmen will. and told her that
New Orleans was a very large city.
Whereupon Zepherine shrugged her shoul-
ders. too. and the gesture was very cum
ming. saying that no matter how large the
town might be, the good God would enable
her to find her dear father.
But as the cooler weather drew on there
came a time when the visits of Mr.. Vail
combe ceased.
This was very pleasing to Nan Dorring-
ton, who was a little jealous of the French
man. Since her illness she was more de-
voted to Zepherine than ever.
And Nan was more beautiful than ever
There was not a mark on her face to
show that she had ever suffered from that
terrible disease, and it was all owing to
Zepherine
And yet between Mans father and Zeph-
crime a terrible state of affairs existed
This was owing in part to the jovial Mr.
Sanders and in part to the misunderstand-
ing that had arisen when Zepherine had
made her unexpected appearance as a vol
unteer nurse.
When Zepherine returned home Mr.. Sam
ders was the first to greet her, and his
greeting brought the blood to her face.
why, hello. honey!" he exclaimed. 'Tm
