You can have a new frock if you like. That business of Rathbone's turned out much better than l expected
 "A new frock," For the moment Bid dy's eyes shone. She loved pretty clothes, and possessed a good many But no extrava gance could be laid to her charge, for her own clever fingers fashioned most of them, and her eye never made an error in form or color.
 "Td love a new frock, Tom. but ! mustn't have It.
 'fWhy. pray?"
 For the sake of all the women who want new frocls badly and cant have them, and for an example to those who want them and have them, no matter at what cost" said Biddy, delivering her self of this heroic sentiment triunl- phsntly-

 But shes clever and convincing. She says we spend too much money on ev- erything. and that all our ideals are crushed by sordid psndering to our in- ciinations."

 So the talk died out in happy laugh ter But the last had not yet been heard of the simpler life
 Carslake's ideas or the subject of hog pitaliiy were old-fashioned. He never took his wife to dine at restaurant, or asked his friends there Hitherto Biddy had not qJarreled with him on that score nor had there been the slightest friction on any of these points He supplied her with more than the needful mOley. and got the return he cared fora comfortable home, with ey- cry refinement clever wife could de- wise for, and i1 it.
 C5rslal-e dismissed the conversation regarding the simpler life from his mind, and as Biddy said no more about it he concluded she had got rid of the impression. too.

 She was not so eager on her experi- ment as She had been 10 hours ago. and a the last moment had been tempted to send round to the florists. But she had held on to her courage. only she did not like the disappointed look in her hus- bands eyes.

 The intervening half-hour swiftly passed. and the guests arrived, eight in number all persons of good position asked to meet a newly married couple for the first time The bride was coun- try girl whom Biddy had been asked to befriend and she had thought it her clear duty to show her an example of the sim pier life.
