upon p~retense of consulting l.. about
fayors for the next cotillion. They
were hardly seated when some one
beckoned Bessie away and she left him
with voluble promises to return in a
moment.
Wingate leaned back against the
cushions and drew the heavy draperies
as a screen between himself and the
glittering kaleidoscope of the room.
Presently there was a rustic of skirts
and two ladies seated themselves on a
divan beyond the curtain. Wingate
had no desire to play eayesdropper, but
his position seemed too desirable to
cave. so with half-closed eyes he set
tied himself to await Bessie's return.
The first words of his unseen neigh
bors reused him to instant interest,
however, for it was Margaret Little
who spoke.
Nov Aunt Madge, what is it this
timer" she asked, with a defiant note
in hes voice.
"Oniy one question, Margaret" was
Miss Redmond's calm reply. why

"He doesn't seem to belong anywhere
in particular. New Years is such a
stupid day now that no one receives
and he has been very nice to me, you
know!"
HE has been more than nice" said
Miss Redmond gravely. He has
seemed thoroughly devoted for several
months. The New Years dinner has
been a family festival with us for
many years because it celebrates your
fathers birthday, as we'll as the general
holiday, and an invitation to that din

was t. increase his already large for.
tune, was to share the Little millions,
and "the boys" would no doubt laugh
behind his back because he, Ber.ram
Wingate, had angled for them In vain.
The whole shallow mockery, which
lay bare to others, for the first time
seemed thoroughly contemplate to
him. Angry tears smarted in his eyes
and his hands were clenched In his
pockets with a fierce determination to
win an enviable position without the
help Of society; to live a life too busy
for the tolerant patronage OF women
or the amused contempt Of men.
H. had walked for nearly an hour
before he became conscious that his
feet were numb with cold and his face
no longer felt the sting Of the sleet.
Pausing irresolutely to get his bearings
before seeking the nearest a line, he
stood for a moment in a shaft of light
from the window of a pretty cottage.
A young girl, turning briskly to
enter the house, exclaimed: 80 you
have really come to see us at last. This
is the place. Come right in. Your
mother said she would write and tell
you we were here, but we thought she
had forgotten. Mabel is teaching, I'm
going to the conservatory, Bob's in
business college and fathers got a
good job buying wheat for the Consol.
idated. Why haven't you been to see
us before?"
Wingate murmured something about
being very busy, as he meekly followed
the girl into the house.
Il suppose you're always busy" COM
mented the girl kindly. "Out this way
on some building l guess? I hope you
haven't been to dinner.
Mother, here's Bertram Wingate.
He was out this way and has looked us
up" she said, ushering Wingate into
the CHEEKY sitting room.
He was thankful for the easily as
sumed explanations and glad to follow
the girl into the cosy room. Mrs. Whit
comb greeted him heartily and the
whole family gathered about him,
pressing him to stay and asking news
of his people. There was an air OF
pleasant affection and a Difference for
his accomplishments which was sooth-
ing to his wounded vanity.
When he took his departure, Mrs.
Whitcomb said, kindly, Cant you
spend New Years with us, Bertrand"
"It would be real charity on your
part if I may" said Wingate, flushing
warmly at the thought of the other
charity dinner he had expected to eat.
cts nice of you to speak that way
Bertram," said Mrs. Whitcomb, strok-
ing his sleeve, but you know the pleas
ure will be OURS in having a friend
from the old Dakota home to share the
day with us"
The New Years dinner was by no
means the last which Bertram Win
gate ate in the little cottage.
In the spring Molly, the %irrepressi-
BILE, wrote to her Dakota confidante.
mabel and Bertram Wingate are
going together a good deal. He isn't a
bit stuck up as some of the Dakota
people used to say he was. Father says
he has drawn the plans for nearly all
the big buildings to be put up this
summer. If he's going to be my bro
t~her-in-law, I hope he'll plan a cute
little house for Mabel. 1 think mother
knows all about it, but she won't tell"

him from the embarrassment of being
taken for a page on the floor of the
house. Mr.. Smiths brain is away out
of proportion to his diminutive body,
as he is one of the ablest men of the
very able delegation from the Wolver-
inc state. He is a lawyer Of high
standing in his district and in debates
on the floor of the house he has proven
himself capable and convincing.
Mr.. Smith has a rival for the distinc-
ton Of being the smallest man in the
house. Mr.. Frank S. Dickson of Illi-
nois is more youthful looking than the
Michigan member and is almost as
short Ill stature. Dickson has already
paid the penalty of his boyish appear
ance, as he has been summoned by old
er members more than once to run
errands for them on the suppOsition
that he is a page. The Illinois con-
gresham regards those mistakes as
sometimes for his own amusement and
that of his friends. He was chosen
one Of the tellers during the election of
the speaker when congress opened.
Mr.. Dickson was barely old enough
to get into the house. He was nomi-
mated and elected before he had
reached the constitutional age of 25;
but passed hat mark before he took
his seat in the house. He is slight in
form, not above five feet four in height
and his face is as innocent of whisker
as that of a lad of Ia. He dresses in
youthful clothes and would readily
pass for a boy of 16. He is n of the
accidents" that were carried into the
house on the Roosevelt wave of last
year. He made little or no effort to be
elected, but the big vote for Roosevelt
carried him along.

make you irritable; you can't sleep,
you are unable to quietly and calmly
perform your daily tasks or care fer
your children.
The relation of the nerves and gen.
erative organs in women is so close
that nine-tenths of the nervous pros
t~ration, nervous debility, the blues,
sleeplessness and nervous irritability
arise from some arrangement of the
organism which makes her a woman.
Fits of depression or restlessness and
irritability. Spirits easily affected, so
that one minute she laughs, the next
minute weeps. Pain in the ovaries and
between the shoulders. Loss of voice;
nervous dyspepsia. A tendency to cry
at the least p~rovocation. ALI this points
to nervous prostratlon.
Nothing will relieve this distressing
condition and prevent months of pros
tration and suffering SO surely as Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Mrs. M. E. Shotwell, of 1O3 Flatbush
Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y, writes:
~ cannot express the wonderful relief I
nave experienced by taking Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. l suffered for
a long time with nervous prostration, back
ache, headache, loss of appetite. L could
not sleep and would walk the floor almost
every night.
II had three doctors and got no better, and
life was a burden. l was advised to try
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
and it has worked wonders for me.
81 am a well woman, my nervousness Is all
gone and my friends say I look ten years
younger"
Will not the volumes of letters from
women made strong by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound convince
all women of its virtues? Surely you
cannot wish to remain sick and weak
and discouraged, exhausted each day.
when you can be as easily cured as
other women.

CLEVELAND PARK
An Ideal Location.

Study the direction of the move
ment of population in Washington.
Where the people go high prices
will go. The increase in popula-
ton and in high-class building have
been greatest in the northwest,
that part Of the northwest beyond
Florida avenue.
Cleveland Park is in the center of
the very heart of the outlying
northwest, In the path of the direct
line Of growth, bounded on the east
by Connecticut avenue and Rock
Creek Park and on the opposite
side by Massa chusetts avenue.
The Connecticut avenue bridge,
one of the handsomest ever built
for highway travel in the United
States, will be completed in less
than ninety days at a cost of close
to a million dollars. Its compile
ton will bring Cleveland Park more
than a hale mile nearer Dupont
Circle. This alone will mean in
creased values.
The man who buys house in
Cleveland Park now can make
money by SO dOing-he is buying an
investment as well as home.
Cleveland Park is already nearer
the Capitol than Dupont Circle was
few years ago. How will it be in
few more years?
Moreover. with ell these induce
ments, these guarantees for the fu-
ture; with all the natural scenic
beauty, handsome and costly homes,
improvements, wise restrictions and
safeguards of Cleveland Park,
Prices There Are No Higher Than
In Some of the Untried Boom AL
lotments Of Washington.
No unsightly or undesirable build
ings in or near the Park.
