J9 house took Dolly home in one
f5sSs of the drenched and bespat-
lS tered hacks. The Barclay
residence was one of the best made
and largest in town. 1t was an old
style southern frame house, painted
white, and had white columned veran-
das on two sides. 1t was in the edge
of the town and had an extensive lawn

Dolly's mother had never forgotten
that she was once girl herself, and
she took the most active interest in ev-
erything pertaining to Dolly's social
life. On occasions like the one just
described she found it impossible to
sleep till her daughter returned, and
then she slipped upstairs and made
the girl tell all about it while she was
disrobing. Tonight she was more alert
and wideawake than usual. She opened
the front door for Dolly and almost
stepped on the girls heels as she fol-
lowed her upstairs.
"Was it nice?" she asked.
"Yes; very" Dolly replied. Reach
ing her room, she turned up the low
burning lamp and, standing before a
mirror, began to take some flowers out
of her hair. Mrs. Barclay sat down on
the edge Of the high posted mahogany
bed and raised one of her bare feet
and held it in her hand. She was a
thin woman, with iron gray hair, and
about fifty years of age. She looked
as if she were cold, but for reasons of
her own she was not willing for Dolly
to remark it.
"Who was there?" she asked.
"Oh, everybody"

would stay away because 1t was a bad

AS a champion of the people he was

Mr.. Pulitzer lives much In Europe,
but has just finished in New York a.
