Commissioner Henry Wollman has

whom Rockefeller, Flagler, Rogers

where the family had gathered.
Miss Grant was pouring forth an
inexhaustible food of news, non
sense and clever criticism upon
what she had seen a2d heard since
her last visit, in which time she
had been abroad.
Steve could not account for the
unusual tremor which stole over
him as he found himself at his
friends threshold. He was always
difiident at first in the society OF
women. but this unusual stupidity
and self consciousness amounted to
decided embarrassment when he
was presented. He saw in the per
son of Lizzie Grant a slight, girlish
figure, with bright mischievOus
eyes and dark brown hair She was
charming and his first impression
was favorable to the scheme of his
hostess, had she but known it. The
young woman had partly guessed
whta was in Mrs. Cooper's mind for
the elder woman had often spoken
of her husbands Junior partner in
a way that left no room for doubt
as to what she would like to have
happen. For this very reason Liz
zie had been determined that she
should not fall victim to her
friends protege, but when she saw
him her resolution began to melt.
During the dinner Henderson
devoted himself most agreeably to
his fair neighbor and while the par.
ty was so small that general con.
versatiOn was to a great extent in
dulged in, he managed to monopol
iZe a good share of her attention
Before he left that evening he had
asked and received permission to
call at Miss Grants home. He con
tinued his attentions all through
the winter and early the following
spring Frances Cooper had the ex
IRENE satisfaction of hearing from
Lizzie's own lips of her engagement
to Stephen Henderson.

Stephen Henderson was quite "a
friend of the family" and especial
ly since his mother had been stay
ing with the Coopers was he con-
sidered as entirely one of them

that he should come out to dinner

On the evening that she had sent
the invitation to Stephen, Mrs.
Cooper told her husband of a little
plan that she had arranged for the
surprise of the young man. 1t was
that Lizzie Grant, a close friend Of
hers, should be at this same birth
day dinner so that Stephen might
meet her and, if possible, fall in
love.
Bert Cooper had smiled when he
heard of the plan and advised his
wife not to get into the business
of matchmaking. adding that he
feared the young folks were not
