Never mind, Mamie, dear, perhaps
something will turn up soon. 1 haven't

finished cheerily, though with half
smothered sob behind her optimistic
speech.

loving look upon her companion, ''al-

NEW m SPOONS,
Several Kinds for Special Purposes
Selling in tho Shops.

New York Sun: Despite the many
styles Of individual spoons now in use,
inventors are continually on the alert
to supply some particular need or con-
venience. A novel housewives assist
ant Is the measuring spoon, like the
ordinary teaspoon in size, but marked
in the bottom of the bowl with lines
and figures to guide her in proportion
Ing ingredients for cooking mixtures.
The warning labels, one-half one
quarter, one-eighth spoonful, are
ar11xed just as on a measuring glass.
The spoon Is of sterling use in the
making of gravies, of buildings, cakes,
salads or any dishes of nature re-
quiring exactness in the seasoning.
The measuring spoon is to be had
In grades to suit all purses. This Is
the case. too, with the newly devised
babys spoon. which is a very practical
improvement on the original. The bowl
Of the baby's spoon is shaped as usual,
but the handle Is curved backward and
welded to the end of the bowl, forming
a loop like the loop in the handle Of
a ring. The Topped handle is just big
enough for five small fingers to grasp,
and little fellow making first at
tempts to feed himself can get along
much better with a spoon of this sort
than one of ordinary pattern. Then
there Is a new model, mustache spoon,
special Ice cream spoon and an egg
spoon for lifting poached or fried eggs
from the dish. They fill a manifest
need, showing the possibilities for ad-
ditions to the spoon family, notwith-
standing the enormous variety OF styles
and shapes already in use.

Jove, it is cold, isn't it? I think Wen
have some more Goals on, eh?" he said,
as he heaped up the fireplace.
Yes, it Is cold," SAID Nora, becoming
acutely conscious that she had eaten
nothing since her early breakfast of tea
and bread and butter.
you look wretchedly cold, are you i'll,
Miss Nugent?" and, as Godfrey looked
at her he became conscious of a sudden
feeling Of interest in this typewriter girl,
whom he had hitherto looked upon as
only part of his machine.

Hard lines. isn't it?' said Godfrey,
'but say" he continued, looking at her
again, ARE you sure you take enough
care of yourself? Isn't this rather thin
for day like this. = he said gingerly
touching the well worn black cape which
was Nora's sole outer covering, land are

that sort of thing''-he said alphabetically,

"What is it? I think we are wasting
time, Mr.. Churnside, we had better get
to work." she answered.
Come down with me to the restaurant
around the corner, and have some lunch
to please me-now do?" he pleaded.
Poor Nora's eyes were swimming in
tears-half from hunger, half from graft
tude for the unaccoustomed care law
ished upon her
| During the intervals of devouring lunch
she told him some of her troubles, of
Mans weakness, her own inability to keep

She came back looking rather crestfall-
en- with the familiar long evelope in her
hand
MY story back from the Screecher,"
she said little bitterly. II suppose you
haven't even read it, for only sent it
yesterday. Well, better luck next time"
she said, trying to smile as she threw
the desptsed MS. on the desk.
ooh poor Moral" said Mamie, syrnpa-
.hetically.
Never mind, dear, lick must turn some
day, but it is hard lines to get my Grip
Il Iron" back, for I know it isn't half
bad. Never mind, Nankin Blue, must
be off, ta-ta!'' and with that she flew
down the long staircase.
Poor Nora" said Mamie Nugent,
brushing away a tear, with all her true
spirit, and her hope, what is to become of
US? What is to become of us?" and she
rocked herself to and fro.
The girls had tiny income from
small legacy left them by their grand
mother, and so far had managed to rub
along, their only outside means of SUD
sistence being miserable pittance Nora
earned by daily teaching. and what Nam
ME could make by her beautiful work.
Morals heart beat high as she ran up
the narrow, dirty staircase which she was
told led to the advertisement"
On the landing utside the door were
four or five persons of various ages, with
clothes In various stages of decomposi-
| ton.
One elderly woman, with struggling
gray hair, leaned YEARLY against the
stair-rails; another. even NOR. anxious

But" he continued mort kindly, you
haven't had much luck yet, perhaps?"
"None," she replied, with great en-
phasis and certain bitterness.
Dear, dear" he said, sympatheically,
"but luck will turn you know it does
for us all some day. Bring me some Of
your work tomorrow. I will have look
at it. Now we must go back to the
novel"
Nora built good many aerial castles
on the foundation Of the hope his words
had opened out to her, and it was no
small disappointment next day when he
seemed to have as utterly forgotten the
converse ton as If it had never been ut
tered.
She had brought the Grip Of Iron"
neatly tied up in a parcel in her muff, but
the whole conversation seemed to have
slipped from Mr.. Churnsides memory
and her typewriter had to fly more quick
ly than usual to complete the requisite
number of pages, as her employer was
obliged to go out early on account of an
appointment.
He was in such a hurry he hardly wait
ed to say goodby, and Nora felt curious
feeling of deSolaton, as she was left
alone with the neatly tied sheets before
her, instead of the exultation which would
have been hers a week ago, on knowing
that she was free to return to Mamie an
hour earlier than usual.
She had not hurried to put on her cloak,
and as she at last arose to do so, heard
step ascending the stairs
The poStman'S double knock meant a
parcel, and she FASTENED to bring it in.
{ The printed label on the packet showed
/ that was from the Rambler office.
They may want the rest of it typed
/ had better open it and see, L could do
She said aloud.
To her establishment instead of proof
1 sheets, an unused MS. was dfclosed as
I; she unfolded the paper. A note lay on
| the top, which read as follows:

Nora felt like a condemned criminal. as

In her muff, in which The Grip of Iron
