BY Dorothy Douilas


Jane was poor as to purse; her
bounty lay in a richness OF spirit, an
all:abiding love for her fellow men.
When she drew near the tenement
that was her home her heart contract
ed painfully. A child, not more than
ten, was huddled against the chilling
pillar Of the doorway, seeking shelter
from the biting November wind. The
child had taken on her own rag Of q
coat and it lay cuddled over q still
smaller form in her arms.
The eyes Of hunted animal
cleaned forth from the small, pinched
face when Jane stopped in front OF
her.
What ia It. child? No, don't be
afraid"-for the child had made an
involuntary movement as II to fee
give me the baby and come with me;
you are cold through and through
II dasn't 60 home till get two
dollars" the child said mechanically
as she followed Jane into the tene-
ment building and up the stone stairs.
Through her apathy, brought on by
numbness and hunger, the child re-
sponded to James sympathy. I'D get

two dollars. and I amt got notbin' but
experimentation Of them"
Poor little dear" said Jane. and
pondered the situation while she put
the infant to sleep on her own couch.
She could not afford TO make up
the difference in money to the child,
as her own resources were limited,
yet the money must be found, and
that before disk set In.
She went about preparing food for
the children. Her knowledge az to
correct feeding Of an infant in arms
was more or less vague.
Children of the poor can eat any,
thing and thrive" thought Jane, aud
a grim little smile played about her
lips. The milk she warmed seemed
perfectly satisfactory. and when the
infant was again asleep Jane spoke
to the older child.
81 am going :out to find some more
pennies for you. You must stay here
until 1sreturn." James order was not

they so desire. You only stay With
the party when you desire it. All tho
places that you visit will be filled with
tourists, thousands Of them. 1t does
not matter whether they have crossed
on the steamer with you or not, they
arc there. When you want to visit
these places you will always have 70
visit them with thousands Of other
tourists. But when sightseeing time
is over, at your meals or in the time
that you devote to personal pleasure,
each one is just as much their own
master and just as free from social
obligations to fellow travellers as if

Her eyes cleaned at the soft lux:

Her eyes cleaned at the soft lux
ury Of Dana Villar's studio. She sank
down upon a wide couch.
VillaT stopped to admire the odd
color scheme she presented.
"You would make far more money
40 a mcclellan you do as a street
singer" he told her as he put a
rough sketch on his easel.
II am not street singer" Jane
remarked casually.
What are you-by professlon?'
Villar swung his models platform
into the fast fading light and placed
chair on 1t.
Jane smiled slowly. 'Im-iust a
vagabond," she said. and villar turned
in time to catch the unconscious pa
thos in James eyes.
He drew a quick breath; the girl
was beautiful.
"H you will come to the model
stand now, please" When he took
Jane by the hand to assist her 10 the
high stand a dull color swept the
girls face. While he draped soft
brown velvet over her shoulders An
undreame d-of sensation kept her eyes
from looking at him.
Villar's eyes never left the perfect
oval Of her face; It was framed in
rich masses Of red-gold hair and the
delicate flush strayed up until it met
the shadows beneath her soft gray
eyes.
You are far too beautiful 10 be
vagabond." Villar found it difficult
to use the word In connection with
his model.
James easy flow OF speech came
back to her when villar had returned
to his easel and she told him Of tho
little children and their urgent need
Of money.
The artists hand stopped often dur
ing her story and it seemed to him
that the entire warmth and glow Of
the setting sun had centered upon
Jane. The radiance Of a great soul
had entered his studio and Villar wei
coined its coming. He paused and
looked at the girl who had brought
these things into his life. His hand
was still 30 long that Jane wondered
at it.
Am I not holding the pose?" she
questioned
Villar did not starile her with the
knowledge that she was holding his
universe in her hands. Instead he
said:
You are holding it so well that /
am going to ask you to pose for me
again tomorrow
II don't bclieve-I want to be a
model" she said.
Villar looked at her moment, then
said grayely, Nor do want YOU TO
become q model" He smiled then
and came over and sank down in
whimsical abandonment beside her.
Let US be sensible, my lady Jane"
he said, using the name she had Civ
en- him. ~ know and | believe YOU
know that in time you-no. don't
leave me. Don't you know it? An.
swer me-"
James breath CAME quickly. "Yes,
yes-I do know-bur I seem to have
desire to escape-to--"
Villar took her hand firmly between
his own.
Never do that, Jane. The most
wonderful thing in the world has
come to US and the giving in TO it is
only a. matter OF time. You can fear
it--and fight it and cscape-for a
time. but in the end-n the end-oh.
Jane." he cried breathlessly.

FIGHT Commission
ADDS new RULES
No More Fake Bouts Likely
and Sudden Price Boosting
Guarded Against.

"HE boxing promoters of the State
to-day have two more rules to
learn. They were agreed upon at
the meeting OF the State Athletic Com
n are calculated to restrain
clubs from getting too much Of their
money. One OF the new regu-
lations follows out a suggestion by for
mer Boxing Commissioner James f.
sullivan. ana by II clubs are require
to hold receipts for forty-eight hours In
case a bout Ia stopped by the referee or
a Boxing Commissioner.
This would make u possible 20 com.
pei the club to refund the lone to the
patrons In case the commission decided
the exhibition had been a fake. The
adoption Of this rule Is the direct result
OF the recent Cross-Hogan 'lasco. The
other rule STIMULATES that the scale Of
prices be printed In large type over the
box ONCE window and not varied"
This rule Is expected to project the
public from sudden. mysterious boosts
In the price of tickets when the club
discovers the crowd Is coming in faster
than II had expected.
