All the evening Stella had looked
forward to the moment when she
might dance with Alfred. During the
programme Gideon had knocked at the
door of grandma Jams room, then the
green room," to ask for coming
waltzes, and had gone away scowling
at Stella's refusal.
Their brief players moment had
passed, when Alfred's eyes had burned
into hers, revealing his own heart In
Romeos words.
Yet, now that 1t was over, II seemed
a dream, and Stella began to doubt,
to fear. No formal words could more
fully disclose them, one to the other;
still an intangible veil had dropped
between them. Alfred was withheld
from her; or did he withhold himself?
No matter what 1t was, this hour she
would claim. One dance! Once to feel
his arms about her, to fancy him her
very own-she would dare fate for
this; would borrow from the future
this one little bit of time, nor care
what usury she must pay.
AS they neared Mr.. Crocker stand

onlookers halted them. Some one ad-
dressed Stella and she did not hear
Mr.. Crocker's low request for an i'm
mediate word with Alfred. He told
her of 1t as they walked slowly down
the room.
She saw an angry CLEAN in his eye,
saw his set. stern jaw; but he spoke
hardly word. Stella almost felt that
his anger was for her. In vain she looked
for some tender glance, some whisper
that would explain. She could not
know that Alfred was fighting one of
the few fierce battles of his life; that
he was almost ready to strike out
with his fist for possession of her, to
defy Mr.. Croker, business, all the
sane and safe and dutiful things OF
life. But the wild moment passed
and more than once on his way to the
door he looked back tender messages
to her.
The supper hour came; but she

her, would miss her. Neither would

ish gown of rough white linen, great
" resembling the rough-weave pongee.
The material was handsome and cut
in the latest jacket-suit style, with a
cutaway coat, long sleeves and a
miniature linen vest OF barred white
damask. The coat was trimmed with
large white buttons on the front and
the sleeves were trimmed with small
buttons in wide braid buttonholes
from the bottom of the cuffs to the ell
bows. A panel effect on the skirt was
trimmed down both sides with small
white buttons In braid buttonholes.

AN OUTDOOR CARD PARTY.
Enjoyable Entertainment Suitable for
Summer Months.

A simple but unique morning card
party may be given by the hostess
who has a lawn or large porch on
which to entertain her guests. Cover
the tables with green cheese cloth
in pretty shade. For tally cards use
leaves from the oak or maple tree, as
these are good shape and do not
wither easily. Gold paper stars or
circles are used to keep score, and
may be had at any stationer's. The
prizes may be a dainty white fan with
possibly a suggestion of green for
first prize, and a huge palm leaf with
a bow of green ribbon for the BOBBY.
The refreshments are sandwiches OF
lettuce, olives, nasturtium or any
other delicate green filling. and iced
tea served with lemon and long stalks
of mint. After this, ices with mint
cherries served in white paper cases,
with little wire handles wrapped In
green paper. On each handle fasten
a white butterfly cut from paper and
marked little with water color paint.
Plain white and green iced cakes may
be used, or a white cake with touch
of pistachio in the filling. Green and
white peppermints may be served dur
ing the game or after the ices.-Wom-
