I'm not jealous" returned Will.
But I believe that's only an excuse.
What would he want to buy your hair
for?"
Kitty laughed merrily. Don't you
know that a woman's browning beauty
Is her hair" she quoted. "He could
easily sell mine in his store. See,
don't you think it's lovely?"
She took off her hat as she spoke.
The mass of hair revealed by the &C.
ton was indeed beautiful, of light
chestnut in color and marvelously
thick and wavy..
"How vain you are" said her lover.
Don't you ever have serious thought
about anything but being pretty?"
Kitty flushed angrily. Cant you
let girl find what pleasure she can
In her own good looks?" she retorted.
Goodness knows there's little else
around here to enjoy. If you don't
like the way l act, let me alone. I'm
tired of your attempts to change me
into an old woman. I do wish you'd
let me alone!"
VERY we'll, will them" said the
man and left her at once. She flounced
on, telling herself she hoped indeed
that he would, serious old fogy, always
talking about improving himself, and

things.
When Kitty reached her home she
went at once to her little room, and,
standing before the glass, let down
all her beautiful hair and admired It
to her hearts content.
"Cut it of and sell IT," she said re.
membering the hairdresser's offer,
I'D sooner cut my head of. I'd
starve with it rather than live without
It," And she braided it into two long
plaits and went into the other room tn
get supper.
The next day she heard that Will
had gone away, and as the days
passed and no word came from him,
she reproached herself for her hasty
| speech. But she always rallied to her
own defense. He was too critical and
exacting, and why couldn't she think
her hair pretty without being vain ?

have delighted in it too. II he had
loved her he would not have STAYED

death was accidental or with suicidal

and the type of the revolver make the
accidental theory less proba Bile
Rawn's name was mentioned in the
