CHAPTER XIII.

In the handsome drawing room of their
town residence in Berkeley Square sat
the dean Of Denham and Lady Grace
Baumgarten. 1t was a fine evening in
April; the dinner hour was approaching.
and they were awaiting a guest, an old
friend whom the dean had met In the
street Unexpectedly that day, and invit-
ed.
Years have elapsed, and the dean, ap-
preaching fifty now, Is more portly than
he was wont to be; but Lady Grace
carries her age well, and looks not day
older than the period a woman never con-
tesses to have ed-fve-and-thirty. But
In the deans face there Is a look of anx-
ious care.
Gifted with an aristocratic wife, and
she with aristOcratic tastes and habits,
the dean had fallen long and long ago into
more expensive rate of living than his
means permitted. Embarrassment follow.

But the plan does not answer it is some
thing like the nails in the horseshoe.
which doubled as they went on: and DIR.
Baumgarten had now attained to q height
OF perplexity in his pecuniary affairs not
frequently reached by a dignitary of the
church.
Half the labor of his later life had
been to hide it from Lady Grace. She
could not avoid knowing that they were
In debt but she had no conception to
what extent and debt is rather fash
lonable complaint. She also found that
the dean invariably ran short of ready
money; but that is not uncommon either.
In one sense Of the word, the debts which
had gathered about them might be put
down to the score of Lady Grace. At
the death of her mother, Lady Avon. she
had come into all the property that would
be hers-two thousand year With that
and the deans income they might have
lived sufficiently we'll. But Lady Grace
bad, little idea Of the value of money
Living in Berkeley Square was her do
Ing, and was quite wrong and ridiculous
with their narrowed means.
To years before the present cbapter
opens Lady Grace had come to London
on visit to her brother. Lord Avon
had never married, and spent much Of
his time abroad, keeping his house-a
small one-in Piccadilly done up in
brown holland and lavender. However.
he took possession of it for season.

the dean, if he could come. \ season
in town was perfectly delightful to Lady
Grace.

to be had cheaply, Henry. and take it,
"All right" said his lordship, who had
given in to Grace from the time she was
a baby.

At the best houses, napkins are still
laid at the left of the forks or upon the
service plate if preferred.
Sometimes they are half folded over
with small piece of bread or dinner
roll Enclosed, though ordinarily these
are now laid upon the bread and butter
plate.
The napkins is folded square, with
The initial or monogram of the hostess
on top.
Napkins folded in fancied shapes are
not tolerated outside of country hotels
and restaurants.
The luncheon napkin may be smaller

Napkins should he ironed while quite

Everything feminine wears beads,
and the shops are yet full of dangling
strings beseeching buyers. Lovely col
orings are shown this year-pale,
translucent rose, yellow amber, currant
red, mauve and lavender and the strik-
ingly chic green jade, as well as the eX-
qusite pinkish white coral.
OF the colors slated for popularity in
the new seasons costumes blue in its
many shades and tones is much in evil
dence. Its quite universal acceptance
may be due to the fact that it Is color
becoming to almost every woman, but
it's more likely that the real reason lies
behind the fact that Paris has gone
daft apparently over this color and Is
sending it to us in gowns, coats and
hats-together with accessories In every
conceivable shade. Browns are also to
be much worn, with beguiling shades
of green, apricot, mode and champagne
In cloths, silks and crepes but even
with this wide color selection blue loses
none of its favor.
A very dainty evening blouse In tur-
quoise blue messaline silk, intended for
wearing with a skirt in ninon de sole
of the same shade exactly. is made with
full handkerchief folds, gathered on
either shoulder, and then crossed In

tiny silk rosettes. each rOSette centered

Very charming bridesmaid dresses

Some children catch cold very easily
after having their hair washed. In
order to dry it quickly and prevent
this, use for the final rinsing quite hot
water in which a few drops Of alcohol
have been added. Then rub the hair
we'll with alcohol and wiring it out as
dry as possible.
Next take two or three towels, divide
the hair and wipe each strand separ
ately. says Home Chat. Let the child
sit In warm roOm or, If possible, In
the sun; fan the hair and wipe each
strand separately, and it will soon be
perfectly dry.

A WrunEfuI Grief.

There are tragedies, too, on the We
randa, some that a bit of exercise
might prevent or lessen.
| have one in mind now. All day
long Oh boarding house veranda not
many mites from this city sits a young
woman, large eyed, sad-eyed, never
smiling, seldom speaking, though at her
side is a maid companion hired for the
express purpose of cheering her up"
Every night the woman's husband
comes from town. smilingly greeting
her, and only a nod, never a smile in
return. They sit Mt a table in cor
ner with meals altOge her different
from those served at the long table In
the center. Great jugs of cream, lus-
cious berries. bread made to order, a
special brand of butter, artistic-loolling
salads, try to tempt the woman TO
heartness and cheer. A year ago she
must have been pretty. Now she is
plain, though her every feature is per-
feet. Her hair is glossy and would
wave except for her insistence upon the
application Of wet hairbrush by the
maid companion. She dresses once
day, always in plain black, with never
bewitching rutile nor coquettish end
Of lace. Every morning the husbands

has not smiled since,
Pinned to her plain black collar Is a

old when he died, aud after five months
the mother does not smile.
Somehow one wants to shake the wo-
man In black. pinch her. tell her that
her 1nirthless life Is a life of sin more
terrible than almost any other sin of
which one may conceive, For there Is
the dead child's father to think of and
the future children which she should
take to her heart and mother. One
would tear from her the hOrrid black
robe and robe her In the pink which
would brighten her skin and tighten her
eyes. One would unrol her hair and
scatter its tresses TO the sun till the
god Of light brought back the waves
and careless curls. One would make
her laugh till the yeranda rang with
echoes. One would take even the brooch
from her throat and place 1t teuderly,
lovingly away. And then one would
have her fall upon her knees confessing
her sin both to her husband and her
God.
For greater sin hath no woman than
this-the spelling of the life of the
man who loves her, the refusal to look
up and be glad and hide her heartache,

papa has been telling me that II was not
you who hit Charles and made his nose
bleed"
"Of course II was not meas II |

But why did you not tell me sol 1t
caused me to punish you, for l thought
you deserved 1t. / am sorry to have done
so, Cyras, but the fault was yours. You
should have told me the truth"
Sometimes when you are angry with
me, mamma, and | tell you the truth,
you don't believe me. You believe Jaquet
instead of me. l don't get fair play in
this house with anybody, except papa.
Jaquet hates me, mamma yoa know she
always did hate me-"
II hope not, Cyras. And do not think
she would dare to say to me what was
not true"
"Oh, wouldn't she !" cried the bold boy.
"She does it to get me into a row with
you and make you punish me. Didn't
she tell you it was me that made Char
ley's nose bleed just now, and didn't you
believe her and hit me for it? 1t wasn't
me, and nobody had told her it was me
but she took and said it."
To Jaquet's infinite establishment. she
had her warning the next day. After a
few moments given to getting over her
discontinue, she told her lady that at
the end of the month she had been in
tending to give warning on her own side,
for she was going to alter her condition.
Which meant that she was about to get
married. But when the name of the in
tended bridegroom was disclosed it pro-
voked some laughter from the deans
household, especially from his eldest son.
For the name was
