 s WHO WAS asCARED,
 They were clad In foolish. fiuffy lit- tie dressing gowns. their curly heads tied with foolish. fluffy big hair rib bon bows. and they were engaged in serious discuSsfon
 It was midnight. and they ought to have been in bed getting their beauty sleep. but they were not. for one curly head wasito bs Brought out" this win ter. and the other was at the beginning of that mature and sophisticated pc riod known as second season, and there was 60 much talk about.
 My dear.'' the Bud-to-be said ex- citediy. fIm simply petrided. Suppose everybody doesn't like me. and should be a-her eyes widened with fear and she whispered the terrible word--"a wail-fiower7''
 The elder curly-nead reached out . friendly little brown hand and patted the bundle of rufies on the couch De side her,
 Tt isn,t 60 bad. even at frst" she said reassurtngly. 1T
 'sBut you took the fence at the first tryoff." the Bud-to-be said. wistfuiiy She know more about horses than she did about 'old balls and dinners and things" and the fact did not cheer hei particularly.
 T never told anybody how scared I was said the elder curly-locks. Il was. midnight. as remarked before. the best time Tn tue whole day for remin' tscerfce, and she began to relate:
 f3yx.. t l at "A q school, and \ didn't know anybody al home very well. 2, Estiidn't even know the kfrls And boys of my own crowd as you do, and don't think knew but two older men to speak to. and they were friends of father. And to make things worse. I knew that mother had been looking forward to bringing me out. and 1t would break her heart if did. not make a success--rot just pass muster. but really, truly success.
 And the trouble. dearie. as you know just as we'll as do. Is that you stand or fall on the impression you make al first. a
 well for weeks before mothers re. eepfton--we were going to have din. her afterward, which was worse--- aidnE ygo. % xleepA at: nights for agel and sREes. swnffying ahont what va going to happen. I went out to little things. and they weren't bad, becaus' evsrybody was SO nice to me. But tn, nrst time mother came to discuss abou the dinner I hid in tae closet. jus couldn't bear to talk about 1t.
 .ssveii. it came after a bit. Every thing comes after a bit. I had q dream of . ,drees, and that cheefed me some and | @otseo excited about the ar rangements and the flowers T got ant everything that forgot to be scaret until the very last ,ss fA ;.sl <.
 .Theff e while before dinner start. cd to t1ink about MT: Wentworth. H, was to take me in. you Know. anS everybody knows what that means."
 The Hud-to- knew. evidently. Shs looked up at her friend with an ad miration bordering .op awe. Tne, say he admtres you.s' she said.
 The elder curly. locks chuckled a the memory
 ..IIe was introduced, and I said tt myself, 60 ahead. silly, now is you chanoe.' and then my tongue clove t the roof sof my mouth. and hadn' any fnofe Idea what to say than { pussy cat. When we got to the dining room things.x got worse instead of bet ter. He had conceived the diabolica idea of letting me alone. and seeing what II would do. Oh. I've paid min hack since, but, at the time 1t wal frixhIful. sat there in abject. misery 1t was worse than the dentist's; unti I hspp ened to think of Q show I'd seer the winter befofe4-'Lord Dundreary' yoh know--and the place where Dun dreary gets stranded with the girl ant when he's tried everything else he ask she if she .c-a-can waggle her Ter eaE; ..:.,.;.. ,n,nvs oop,an, be worse: so l just decided I'd have some fun out ;of 1t. and asked min
 you dian't,s the to-be looked at her in wfde!eyed 'astonishment. |.
 ,..At nrst he just looked bored ana uncomprehsnding. then his face light ed up and he laughed right out loud He had seen! Lord Dundreary' year. ago"
 The elder curiy-locks sank back or the couch. lost in thought, She va silent tong enough to have reviewed her .xraasle past season. and her rever. was plainly a pleasant one.
 s'Ypn diant tell me what happened them, prompted her friend.
 The debutante-who-w O. -was-scared sa up with. a delicious little yawn covered by tWo brown nandas
 "oh, thsn,r' she said, II lived hap piiy ever afterward. '-Exchange.
