hood society pays a membership
of guinea in small instalments,
generally three pence week. He
gets 5 per cent on the investment.
He holds one share, which emit
ties him to all the advantages OF
the society. His share is not
transferable, and his money will
be returned to him on demand.
He may, if able, buy 20 shares,
but no more. The holder of 20
shares, however, has no more vot-
ing power than the holder of one.
Each has one vote. Universal suf-
frage is admitted as principle of
the movement. Women. as we'll
as men may buy shares vote and
hold office.
Quarterly the society's books
are balanced. After running ex-
penses are met and small sums set
aside for depreciation and so
forth, the profits (Which in the
case of an ordinary store would
be called dividends) are divided
up among the members thus:
First, each member receives the
rebate which represents the pro-
fits made on his own purchases;
second, the profits from lpur-
chases made by non-members are
divided equally among the mem
bers. In this way the member
gets:
The middleman's profit.
The retailers profit.
And, as a partner in the firm,
the profit on the non-member's
purchases.

Kendall held himself tense. From
somewhere in the great empty house
there had come the sound Of a foot
step. a.>t b. u.
His hand went out instinctively
toward the loaf of bread and the bit
of cheese which constituted his
breakfast. At all events he must
hide these.
Again there was silence, and with
a sigh of relief he returned to his
meal only to throw his head up again,
listening.
This time the sound was unmis.
taxable. There was some one In the
house.
Gathering up his provisions, he
stored them in the fireplace, crum.

She had a key in her hand, and even
from that distance he could see that
she was pale and careworn.

heard her say, suddenly and clearly,
to some one outside; you can leave

She opened a small pocketbook

hand reach out to grasp it; then the
door closed, and the girl sat down
on the little trunk and drew a long
breath Of relief.

He returned repeatedly to the TOP

the girl drag her trunk into what
had once been a parlor. He could
hear her light footsteps moving tc
and fro. Later in the day she went
out, and he descended the stairs

up her household goods in a corner
of the big room. She had put
bright cretonne cover on the old
couch and crimson cushion in a
broken-down easy chair. On a crack
ed handicapped table was her
housekeeping outft-a small brass
kettle, two blue cups and two blue
plates. 70
There were two solid-silver spoons,
also, and Kendall smiled ruefully as
he looked at them. ''If were bur.
glar, instead of a poverty-stricken
artist, she might have her troubles
about that silver" he said. '.@
He smelled the delicious fragrance
of coffee at noon, and sighed for a
taste of it as he finished the loaf
and the cheese and washed them
down with a drink Of water.
He made up his mind that he must
let the girl know that he was in the
house. She might hear him and be
frightened. The next time that she
went out, he waited for her on the

In that moment Kendall came into
his own. IF can't paint pictures,
can design costumes" he decided.
BY day he made drawings for the big
dressmakers, and at night he bent
over Grace's little table planning
with her the costumes which were to
make her famous, and which were to
bring automobiles and carriages to

away to Italy, where Kendall painted

where Grace wore some Of the gowns
which she and her lover had designed
for others. For the grandfather'f
estate was settled suddenly, and Ken
dal's share was big enough to make
marriage possible; and who else
should he marry but the little lady o
