Eloise was having thoughts. That
they were not pleasant thoughts was
proved by the hurry with which she
donned her tan ulster and close brown
walking hat and slipped out of the
house. She hurried down brilliantly
lighted Broadway, hoping that the new
experience of being alone, u%nchaperon~
ed, unprotected, amid the rush of life
on all sides, might divert her mind.
She was halted at last by a man with
a megaphone. lie was shouting: Cali
aboard for Chinatown! Right this
way. Tickets two dollars. All aboard
for Chinatown
She looked up at the huge, ugly "rub-
berneck wagon" now fairly transform
ed into a bower" of beauty of red, white
and blue electric lights and Chinese
lanterns bobbing in the chill breeze.
It seemed to offer surcease from the
insistent, uncomfortable thoughts at
the back of her brain. The old wagon
in its brave array held some Of the al
lurements of fairyland and its happy
responsibility, and on the spur of the
moment she whipped out her purse

scarcely a century older. Before that
people talked of a ball being "explod.

is literally to clap away and was a

Cupid and t[h@
Committee
By CARROLL GORDON.
Copyright, 1907. by P. G. Eastment.

"Do you draw up resolutions and
hings?" asked Kate Masters eagerly.
No." scorned Matte. "You send a
committee to the boss and tell him we
won't work any more"
I'D rather write," declared Grace
Kelso. I'D be scared to death to so
In there and talk to him."
Writing isn't half so good" declared
Matte. "You just tell him what the
matter is and that We'll go on strike if
Bromley isn't dismissed, and that's all
there is to it."
GAIL" repeated Kate. II should think
it would be enough. The idea of going
right in to MI. Temple and telling him
that we're not going to work any more
unless Bromley is sacked. I'd be so
scared I couldn't speak,"
I'm not afraid" said Matte dis
painfully.
II vote that we make Matte Lester a
committee all by herself" suggested
Grace, and the motion was unanimous
ly carried without the Formally Of q
seconding.
"No, you DON'T" cried Matte. "Ill do
the talking, but we want a lot Of girls
for the committee. 1t has a good eff
feet"
In the end a committee of five was
appointed, and it was agreed that the
noon hour the next day would be the
proper time for making the demand.
Matte lay awake half the night think
ing what she should say, and her argu-
pent was continued in her dreams.
The room was all excitement the next
morning, and as the noon hour ap-
preached the excitement grew more
intense. Every girl in the room left
her lunch untouched to accompany the
committee on its GRAND of protest and
left them only at the beginning of the
short hall at the end Of which was
Edward Temples Office.
The departure of the escort seemed
to have a bad effect on the others, for
as Matte raped OH the door and 4
deep voice responded, the other four
girls right about faced as by common
impulse and fed down the passage
way.
For a moment Matte watched them
dismayed. Then with a firm hand she
turned the knob and entered the room

expected to find the room was tenant

Her Glance Backward.

In a Broadway a long past mid
night a robust. motherly woman sat
with a well grown boy Of about fifteen
beside her. The boy had fallen asleep
and his head rested heavily against her

A thrill of anticipation ran through
her as the big, clumsy vehicle wheeled

but never seen-it went. When it halt

party, still determinedly eager to get
outside of herself. The conductor had
taken her under his wing. and she felt
very safe and sure.
They had climbed up and up and up
many winding, creaking, unsafe stairs
to the joss house, a heathenish, garish
place filed with a mixture Of rare
carvings. embroideries, worries and ap.

the hope that they will get the benefit
Of what I am about to tell you"
A little woman in a blue tailored suit
edged her way with asperity into the
