"Oh, place.cards! said the little
woman, her eyes Frightening She
caught at the word as though she had
described new star in the armament.
Il wish | could have them. They cost
SO much to buy. might have my

for Betty to leave this was the worst"
She had unconscioasly fallen into a
tone OF equality with the strange girl
Il should like to help you," said the
girl, but | must find somewhere to
stay before night. and If | find place
| must take it. | just came to the
city this morning, and have nowhere

The troubled look fitted across the
woman's face for moment, but her
desire got the better of her.
Il suppose my husband would think
| was crazy to do it." she said aloud,
but | just cant help trusting you.
Suppose you come and stay with me

out to cook; but if you get your board

And so they got into car and were
whirled away into pretty suburb.
The woman, whose name was Mrs.
Hart, lived in a common little house
filled with imitation oriental rugs and
cheap furniture.
The two went to work at once,
bringing order out of the confusion
that reigned in the tiny kitchen. In
the afternoon the would-be waitress
sat down with a box of water-colors
to paint dinner cards, and as her skill
full brush brought into being dainty
landscapes, lovely flowers, and little
brown birds. she pondered the strange
ness of her lot
The table the next night was laid
with exquisite care the scant supply
of flowers having been used to best
advantage, and everything showing
the touch of skilled hand. The long
hours that Mrs. Hart had spent puck
ering her brow over the household de-
partment of fashion magazines helped
her to recognize the fact that in her
new maid she had what she was pleas.

She sighed regretfully when the
guest of honor Mrs, Rhinehart, spoke
of the dizziness and pleasant appear

pride. 'she is treasure. | only wish
