The sea of hard, strange faces an- nerved her. and she felt sick and nau- seated, but she quietly held out her arms for the poor child who lay groan ing in the chauffeur gentle grasp.
 A tall young mal stepped briskly through the crowd, and made his way to her side.
 "Oh, Doctor Grant-Tm so glad you're here!" exclaimed Paula i'm pulsively.
 More terrified than injured an nounced the doctor after a hurried ex- animation. Then turning to Paula, 'T saw it happen from 8 distance up the street and recognized your car.''
 Assisting Paula into the motor. he made the child comfortable on her lap and stepped in with her.
 'Tll report to you later. Peters," he called to the policeman, who immedi ately permitted them to drive away.
 In a few minutes they were at the stricken home. A tired, resigned wo. man opened the door, and after the doctors tactful explanation, she mute, " accepted this last blow which un kind fate had seen fit to administer.
 While Doctor Grant and the mother were working over the boy. Paula's quick eyes took in every detail of the bare home. ChristSlas for the many little Browns promised to be scanty. A kind neighbor had taken the other children to her home, so Paula's pres. ence was unnecessary. She slipped put of the house, gave the chauffeur q lew instructions and as he drove of rapidly, she sought nearby telephone booth and after ten very satisfactory minutes, was back at the house. Her | phone calls were to certain toy deal. FITS and caterers, and long before the doctor was ready to go, the chauffeur lad shyly dragged baskets and bun, lies of all sizes and shapes into the wee kitchen.

In week he will have forgotten what happened" As they turned into the brilliantly lighted ave nue, he happened to glance at her eve. ming cloak. "Oh, how stupid of mel to let you go so far out of your way when you are going to the Barhams.' ''No, I'm going home. I've had enough for one night" answered Paula with averted face.
 Now that she remembered her owu trouble, she felt a strange shyness with this man who was in the secret of their financial wreck. The silence became wkward-somehow there seemed nothing to say.
 Paula began the doctor abruptly I have heard of your misfortune. and now I feel free to ask you to be my wife. I realize-please don't interrupt until I have finished-I realize that you will take steps to support your. self at once, but I need you too much to allow that"
 Paula's heart leaped violently, but the elation was brief. The sweetness speedily turned to bitterest misery.
 ''Why does this occur tS you to. night of all nights? It would seem as If you were doing this out of char lty," commented Paula coldly.
 ''No, Paula, out of esteem. I am poor, but have enough for two. You certainly understand why I have not spoken before;-a Paula Mercer could hardly be expected to share a young physicians precarious income"
 He appropriated her reluctant hand
 And so you allowed your pride to come between us! No, I thank you for the honor, Dr. Grant, but I have some pride, too"
 Paula" pleaded the young man miserably, eff you only knew the bat ties there have been between my wretched pride and my love. I need you so much, Paula
 eff I were you I'd engage a compe tent housekeeper," Paula remarked sarcastically. But her heart ached as she said it.

 ''Why didn't you say that before Paula whispered unsteadily. "YoJ said esteem, and what girl in hel right senses desires esteem wheI she's yearning for love?"
 And I'm yearning for kiss; vel soon be at your home, but can't wal until then!" exclaimed the doctor hap ] oily.

 Mrs. Singleton was not dead, as l if the separation of which he told me was caused by fault of hers he did not so much as hint at it.
 MT. Singleton cabled at once to Paris. There would just be time. Christmas Eve came and still no word, and though MT. Singleton's face ] looked thin and strained, he started out with Dorothy at noon, telling her , they were going to have a grand and | glorious time that afternoon.
 I was left to attend to the last de tails of the tree that stood in glittering bravery in the center of the sitting room. There was a lot to do, and was bustling around when the door flew open and a radiant young wom an rushed in, calling:

 Stopping quickly, her look arrested by my uniform, she exclaimed: He she-oh, who is ill?' She faltered, go ing white.

 One day we had been out all of the afternoon. Dorothy had selected twenty dolls, and in retrospect 1 view. ed my own meager childhood and fancied what such a glorious after. noon would have meant to me, but the child appeared even more listless than usual Feeling rather anxious, took her temperature, gave her some stimulating nourishment and asked her to get into my lap while I read to her.
 Dorothy had the beautiful old-young manners in which the little children of the rich are drilled, and always treated me with careful consideration and politeness, regardless of her own wishes. Obediently she climbed into my lap, put her head against my shoulder, and I began to read aloud 2 wonderful Christmas tale. We are all of us children at Christmas and l found enjoyment in the story Dor othy was very quiet, and as turned a page I looked down to see if she had | fallen asleep.

THIRD PARTY HAD
TO come, He SAYS
DR.. Max Meyer Advocated
Movement Before 1t Was
Seriously Taken Up
HE WAS A DEMOCRAT
Success May Not Come This
Fall But Will Later,
Is His Belief

! THE progressive movement would
have been necessary sooner or later.
The movement had to start sometime
and now is as good a time to start
it as any,"
DR.. Max Meyer of the department
of psychology of the University, was
discussing the Progressive party to-
day. He has identified himself with
the Democratic party since he has
lived in Columbia and it is not on
account of dissatisfaction with either
OF the old parties that he has taken
up the cause of the progressives, he
says. The reason lies further back
than present day politics. To quote
him:
81 was an advocate of the move
ment long before it was ever talked
OF seriously by the general public.
My reason for advocating the new
movement is that my one desire is
to have socialistic ideas introduced
into our government. l am not in
the Socialist party because | don't
like their propaganda and extreme
ways. They wish to introduce re-
form too suddenly. The socialisttic
idea should be brought about more
slowly. I believe the third party
really socialistic in it's trend. 1t will
net suggest radical reform like the
Socialist party but will go slowly and
be reasonable in it's demands for re-
FORM"
The prediction is made by Doctor
Meyer that the party will be success
full at the polls sooner or later.
''It is very doubtful that it will
carry the present election but l do
not consider such an outcome impos-
sible"
