FIFTY CUBIT
Why Ruth Alden's Nickname Did Not
Stick to Her Long.

1t was luncheon hour at Hilton
Academy, and excitement was high
among the pretty girls who were
preparing for a presentation of the
Cantata of Esther.
who's that coming?" asked one
suddenly.
"Oh, that is the girl from Shelby"
THAT backwoods place! No won
der she looks as if she came out OF
the ark
The girl from Shelby was drawing
near timidly, and paused as she saw
the forbidding faces. Tall and stoop-
shouldered, with hands that told of
hard work, 1t was hard for Ruth AL
den when she wanted to be like other
girls; hard to wear that old dress with
outgrown sleeves and skirt eked out.
She wished she knew how those
girls did their Hair so prettily, but
there wouldn't be time, even IL she
knew She must use every minute be-
fore school, for her invalid mother
must be made comfortable. and dinner
left cooked for the children, and at
night there was even more to be done
She knew not what the girls were talk

back, perceiving herself unwelcome.

When Ruth began to understand,

All day long she lay on the couch,
with a song in her heart, until Angie
came from school, but not alone; there
was roomful of girls crowding
around her.

In a breath. do forgive us--we've
been so cold and hateful, but we've
planned out the incest times, and you
shall be queen OF us ALL"
Ruth looked from one to another of
the fearful, eagar faces and smiled:

~ just want to be one OF the girls"

round Of applause. AS she bowed, her
dress fluttered against fiaring can
dle-a scream and she ran.
Shut the door after mel" pleaded a
voice; and Fifty Cubit burst through
the dressing room, threw Angie to the
floor, and catching up the rug, rolled
her over and over. Another instant,
and Angles father dashed over the
footlights to his darling.
Angie was saved, but Ruths hands
and arms were badly burned. and only
her woollen dress saved her from a
worse fate.
"Oh Ruth What can we ever do
for your" faltered Angles mother.
That night Ruth slept in Angles
room, and next morning Mrs. Fenner
said, Ruth, dear. we have sent a good
woman to your mother, and you must
stay here and rest. Angie needs itIst
