Learn dressmaking;

save money.
 Every woman who joins the Butterick School of Dressrnaking may have more dresses and spend less money.
 Tn the school, one is taught to cut and fit and finish dresses and suits and all other types of garments. One also learns the latest methods of decorat- ing and trimming: the little novel fea- lures which give a gown distinction.
 While these are being taught, stu dent does practical work on a dress for herself. While she learns, she practices and becomes expert.
 The fee for regular course is two dollars. What one learns is worth many times that. And there is actu- ally saved, at once, the cost of having dress made by dressmaker.

By h. l." Bacon

The day after the funeral Kenyon
walked into Bergcr's office at the
bank. In one luxurious year he had
become an old man, white-haircd.
emaciated, iuhrm, and the heavy,
deep-set eyes that regarded Berger
peered out from a face white and
drawn.
Mr. Berger, I've come to set my
self right here. | don't care whether
! have TO give up my place or not.
I've passed the point where anything
matters one way or the other But
I've been under suspicion here, and
Hs an honest man ] want to keep my
reputation clean.
You've been wondering where I
got the money to live as I've been
doing the last year I'm going to tell
you. A year ago ! had five thou
sand dollars, inherited from an un-
Gle. ! had three thousand dollars I
had saved-the savings Of thirty years
thirty, long, hard years Of grind.
There wasn't a year when ] didn't
save a little. even when ! was get
ting only twelve dollars week.
That made eight thousand dollars,
Mr.. Berger, and | raised a little more
on my life-insurance. / got few
hundreds more by selling some
jeWery my grandmother left, and a
little more by running into debt.
And besides that, | had my salary.
That gave me enough TO live as I've
beon doing. I'll show you my pr-
vate accounts If you're not satisfied
"You mean to say that was all you
hnd-aud that you spent IT," Berger
was gaping up at him In amazement
THAT was all I had" eaid Ken
yon, "and / spent it-spent every dol
lar Of it."
Butt don't understand why you
should have done that" stammeIed
Berger.
Perhaps you never will understand,
Mr.. Berger-unless you know what II
means to be told you've got to lose
the only person I'm the world you care
about A year ago the doctors found
that my daughter had an inCurabe
disease. II hadn't developed then
enough to affect her much, but they
knew nothing would loosen its grip
on her. They told me she might live
year at the very longest So |
made up my mind ia do all I could
My daughter had always had un-
bounded faith I'm my ability TO climb
TO the top. Shed always looked for
ward to time when / would be
rich and when we should have the
luxuries of life, without having TO
watch the pennies all the time.
You'll get there some time. father,
che would say, and l could see how
that ambition had got hold OF her
and worked itself into her life till

said to myself She'll have her am
bltion realized. anyway
ut wasn't so much the luIuries
she wanted after all. II was TO see
her faith In me justified. It was only
the other day that she said. Father
l don't care 80 much what happens
TO me Iow that you've got UP to the

That's how II was. Mr.. Berger
and II was worth It,"

Apparently she had never wondered
ror moment where the money had
come from. She had no head for
business matters. and had only a
vague idea OF what her fathers duties
were at the bank. Wealth had come
suddenly as the result Of long years
of hard work. that was all she knew
about Il. and she was not iuQulsitive
regarding the details OF the achieve
ment
But her lack Of curiosity ns 20 how
her father had accomplished 50 much
did not extend TO his fellow towns
men. For many a week Il was the
chief food for gossip among them.
People wondered why Kenyon stlll
stuck TO his twenty ve-huudrcd- dol
lar job in the bank since his rise IN
the world. They wondered, too, why
such 4 worried look had come into
HE face. There were still other
things that perplcNed them. one
was the very evident fact that not
only was Kenyon himself showing
signs OF being under a hard strain.
but his daughter, too, was beginning
20 look worn and troubled. In the
first flush OF prosperity she had not
shown Il. but now Il was rapidly
becoming more and more apparent
She went out lees among her
friends. and the entertaining that she
had begun IN her new home gradually
came 60 an end. Before long she was
very seldom seen outside Of he "Nn
door Her father. too. was becoming
silent and dismal. Even thc motor
car lay, day after day. In the gar

amounts to. 1t would take q for
tune OF something Ike two hundred
thousand dollars to bring him IN
enough Of an income for that, and It's
plain that nobodys been leaving him
uuy such sum. Now, where's all the
money coming from? lie must have
piles Of It, for he's not the man who
would spend all his income. All his
life he has lived well within his
means, putting aside q few dollars
every month for q rainy day. You
might say he's been speCulatins. but
] have good evidence that be didn't
have but few thousand dollars in
the world a few months ago, and it
would take a Napoleon OF finance to
make a big fortune I'm the stock mar
ket I'm that space OF time on such
small beginnings. What's more, he
can't be speCulatiug very heavily,
when he never goes anywhere but to
the bank. I've had him watched"
We'll" said Simpson, IT. your

Tn not saying anything against
his honesty" snapped Berger I'm
Just wondering; that's all. ] don't
believe he's been robbing the bank,
for we've been having the books gone
over, and they're straight He couldn't
fool the examiners. His accounts
aren't short a dollar"
"Tf were you I'd ask him" sug-
gested Simpson. That's the sim
plest way"
That's Just what I've done" said
Berger. And he told me It was his
own affair, and that as long as his
accounts at the bank were straight
ought to be satisfied. Said |
wouldn't believe him even II he did
tell me. Now, I've always liked Ken
yon. Hes good cashier and I'd
hate to lose him, but all this gos-
sip isn't good for the bank. What's
more, even II ] have faith In him my
self. some OF the stockholders are in
mighty suspicious frame Of mind
In spite OF what the books show"
Berger continued for weeks TO pry
into his cashiers private affairs, al
though he gained very little enlight-
enmeut from the effort. But one
thing his detectives found out was
that Kenyons daughter had become
slarmIngly Ill.
That didn't seem to have any bear
ing upon the mystery OF her fathers
opulence, but It might account, per-
haps for the rapid change that had
come over him-for his hsggard fea-
lures. his heavy eyes, and his con-
stant ex.S~ssion Of anxiety and
dread.
Her case is hopeless" he told some
inauiring friends The disease has
been developing steadily for a long
time. She may llnger on for weeks
perhaps months-but the specialists
tell me It's incurable."
Il was almost year from the time
that Kenyon had startled his neigh
bors by moving into his new home
that his daughter died. And 1t was
only a few hours before she passed
away that he received notice that the
bank would require his services no
longer. The protests OF the stock
holders had grown too strong for
Berger TO withstand.
