"A pickpocket has just come on

would see to it that she had a social
position which would be above cavil.
This much decided. there came the
to pass. The fire had burned low in
the crate before he had considered all
sides of the question. When he rose
from his chair and went to the tele-
phone he had determined upon the
only course which would have as its
result the launching Of Gloria as a

ONCE of the Belmont opera house

request for a box. He telephoned to
set 1t aside for him. that he did not
know whether or not he would use it.
but that he would send a check for
the amount in the morning. The
much flustered treasurer stammered
that he would be most happy to put
the box at Mr.. Kerr's disposal and
have him as guest OF the theater.
but Mr.. Kerr inquired the price Of

by repeating that he would send a
