THE CHARITY GIRL
By EFFIE A. ROWLANDS


Your dress looks 20 lovely. You
would make such an exquisite Black
Brunswicker, Jack"
WELL" laughed Jack, kissing her, at

least, If 1 cannot manage the Black
Brunswicker, will don my gray domino.
lou VIII be able to pick me out, won't
you, fairy, even though I am masked?"
And you me?" Audrey added. Don't
forget to look for the black and silver,
Jack"
Dinner was hurriedly eaten, and Jean
was much grieved for Audrey's sake that
Lord John could not accompany her.
After Jack had driven away, the two
girls mounted up to Audrey's pretty bed
room.
You must be my maid tonight, JEAN"
she said, as they sat before the fire for
a few moments.
why, where is Murray?"
On, she was very rude and was
obliged to send her away" Audrey an
swered, a shade falling on her face
There have been a great many COM
plants about her downstairs"
Il hope you told Lord John, Audrey"
she said. mo? My dearest, believe me,
you are wrong-this perpetual attacking
of you. Believe me, if it were once
known that your husband had put his
foot down, you would find Dinglewood
House would learn how to behave itself"
But, Jean, dear, what has Dingle-
wood House to do with Murray's inso-
lence?" Audrey asked, quietly.
More than you imagine, Audrey"
Audrey was silent for a moment.
JEAN she said, looking up with tears
in her eyes, why is it that they-they
are so cruel? What have l ever done to
Sheila Fraser or Lady Daleswater that
they should hate me so?''
You have offended Lady Daleswater
by your beauty and aristocratic bearing
you have made an enemy of Sheila Fraser
because you have robbed her of the man
she meant to marry"
Jean !" Audrey turned pale. "Is this
true?"
Ask any one about the place, and
you will find it is; but why should it dis
tress you? Remember the time it takes
to make your complexion and how will
your ladyship have your hair dressed to-
night 2"
Audrey smiled at jeans grave mimicry
of Murray's voice.
Now let us go down, the carriage Is
at the door, and Mr.. Fullerton will be
tired of waiting"
She followed the black and silver dom
inc down the stairs, and then gave a
great start as Willie sauntered out of the
smoking room in his ordinary evening
dress.
why are you so late? Have you been
sleeping?" Jean demanded severely.
Willie colored and stammered out an
excuse.
IF you will forgive me, have such
a headache, L"
> You want to stay at home? Certain
ly. Jean, look well after him. Good
night, darling goodnight, Mr.. Fullerton
you really do look alarmingly ILL.," and
so, laughing, Audrey drove away.
Jean stood gazing out after the car
riage.
Willie had never seen her look like that
before, and it puzzled him.
Il say, Miss Thwait, you are not
vexed l did not go, are you? II am
Jean turned to him hurriedly.
Not vexed, Mr.. Fullerton, but sorry
l should like you to have been with her
tonight. l hardly know why l say this,
but l have a presentiment that some
thing is going to happen, and that Au-
drey will find sorrow, not pleasure, at
Sheila Fraser's masked ball"

Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1907-02-26
bert j Beveridge United States Senator from Indiana

So we are face to face with this
grave situation: There is no posi-
bility for the strong young men, now
maturing among the masses Of the
American people, Of entering the SER
vice of the republic and remaining
there. If the present tendency goes
on it will not be a quarter Of a century
until this government Of, by, and for
the people will be. conducted exclusive.
Fly by enormously wealthy men.
1t will not do very much good to.
raise salaries of senators and con-
gressmen, even If that were possible
and i doubt its possibility. Such a bill
was offered a few years ago and
nearly every mill onaire voted against
it, Those men who voted for it were
fercely lamp oned. But even If that
bill had become a law, the increase in
salary would have been comparatively
trivia, and any increase which is at
TALL possible would accomplish very lit
tle.S Indeed it is doubtful whether it
would not be unwise to increase sal
aries to a point where the men whose.
only income is their salary could live
on equal terms with their more fortu-
nate colleagues. For no man ought to
come to either house or senate for
financial reward. The truth is that
our national affairs have become so
imp rtant. numerous and complex that
fthey can be properly handled only by
Imen having especial aptitude and
training for them. Such men ought to
| be carefully selected and then, when
tried, kept constantly in public life
until their age renders them unfit for
further public service.
Ii For public life has become a pro-
fession in the best sense. So far
reaching, profound and numerous are
4 the problems constantly arising that
/ the best thought and most careful and
continuous study by our statesmen are
lindispe to their solution. The
nations legislator can no longer at
tend to his own affairs during the. con-
Egressional vacation if he gives intelli-
