terests by the public. The young edi

| telmy might be said, since We art
dealing with judges family, to be IL
statu quo. She was still waiting fol
him ito become sane" as she had ex'
pressed herself to him. A girl Of lofty
principles and Of decided strength Of
character, she could not see his duty
from his viewpoint. Perhaps 1t wa:
all quite natural, quite womanly, quite
daughterly, that she should subscribe
absolutely to her fathers side in the
momentous case Of JUDGE BAR
, TELMY VERSUS THE PEOPLE
WHEELER BRAND AND THE AD-
VANCE"
She was loyal to her father, and she
was trying to be loyal to her lover, and
Brand waited, and each prayed that the
difficult. Yet she waited, and Wheeler
Brand waited and each prayed that the
other would end the ordeal and heal
two breaking hearts.
Today we find Wheeler Brand pro-
ceeding toward the luxurious Nolan
home on fashionable residential thor
oughfare to visit the proprietor Of the
paper to hand him a statement Of the
Advances progress. to discuss matters
of editorial policy and to confer re-
sarding a certain development con-
cerning Judge Bartelmy.
At the Nolan home a reception had
been announced, hundreds Of invita-
tions sent out, but the responses did
not encourage Mrs. Nolan in her So
cial aspirations. Society passed her by.
That was the whole story in brief. So
ciety, as usual, was ever so much
pleased with itself and was too busy to
include Mrs. Nolan, Phyllis and Syl-
vester in it's diversions. The husband
and father cared very little for society,
had no time for 1t, but he Ifondly loved
the courageous, warm hearted woman
who had uncomplainingly shared with
him the onerous hardships Of his ear
ly days, and 1t was his desire to crafty
her ambitions as well as those Of his
daughter. The fortune he had plucked
from Nevada's f1inty bosom enabled
him to be generous, and he smiled ap-
provingly on ever new extravaganza
of Mrs. Michael Nolan. Therefore, If
she was socially ambitious she must
have her way and be allowed to carry
on her campaign for recognition In
whatever fashion she chose. Certainly
the home he had established was fit
ting vantage ground from which to
wage a war Of dollars against the pre-
cipitous embellishments with which the
city's Four Hundred had encircled its
camp. Palatial in size, the Nolan res
idence was equally palatial in its fur
nishings, and only the magic word from
the magic lips Of single member OF
the magic realm Of 'the aristocracy'
was necessary to send monogrammed
coaches in long lines to the Nolan
doors, to fill the costly rooms with dis
tinguished faces, to fill to overfiowing
with happiness the yearning neart OF
Mrs. Michael Nolan.
But the word had not yet been spo-
ken.
It was now late in the afternoon at
the Nolan home. Phyllis walked across
the drawing room, irritation plainly
marking her pretty pink and white
face. The music Of string orchestra
stationed in the conservatory ceased.
She addressed servant who stood at
attention at a door at tine right which
led to- the dining room.
Pitcher" she said discouragedly, Il
don't think any one else will come, 80
tell the musicians they can go"
"Yes, Miss Phyllis"
At this point Mrs. Nolan came storm
ing in, carrying a huge bunch Of hot
house grapes in her hand.
Pitcher, 1 noticed those caterer men
are drinking all the champagne, and ]
want it stopped" she ordered loudly.
Pitcher bowed and went out.
IF our guests won't come here to
drink 1t, at least we will drink it our
selves" Mrs. Nolan announced to Phyl-
lis. "Well, we have done it-serit out
400 cards, and who's been here that
anybody wants to see? This is the
second time we've gone to all this trou-
BILE and expense for nothing and no
body, and if you'll take my advice 1t
will be the last"
Mamma, Pitcher will hear" the girl
protested.
The mother bit grape from the
bunch. She deposited the skin and
stones in a Sevres vase on the marble
mantel.
Phyllis, what did you have to pay
that musician?" she asked.
We'll, his price is thousand dol
lars"
Good gracious!"
But got him for $3.50. promised
the Advance would help him."
Seven fifty for playing twice. I'd
rather hear the band" Mrs. Nolan bit
off another grape.
You don't understand, mamma, Ev-
erybody's wild over that violinist."
1T seems there wasn't nobody wild
enough to come here"
There wasn't anybody" spoke
Phyllis, correcting her mother.
WELL was there?" retorted the
mother as she dropped the grape skin
in another vase.
"Oh, dear" Phyllis walled disconso-
lately as she seated herself before a
small stand, don't rub 1t In, mamma!
I can't help it."
Now, who's blaming you, child?'
consoled the mother. There, don't
cry. I'm not so disappointed about
myself but l can't bear to see you
snubbed right and left You are good
enough to go with any Of these people,
and you shall too. It's that newspaper
that's at the bottom Of 1t. People won't
have 1t, or us because of 1t, and mean
to tell your father so too. And that's
why these at homes is no good"
Are no good, mamma" tearfully.
well, are they? 1t would have been
better to put your $3.50 into suffra-
