wv minutes %t 'S to devote as't to myself asE
l determined yesterday 10
spend this whole afternoon writing
, letters, SO I might as we'll get to work.
Now, | wonder what that is.
"Oh, Mary, can't you put 1T off until
tomorrow? I know 1t might rain,
but l can't be bothered. l don't like
to write letters at any desk but my
own, and I'm 50 comforta BILE up here"
Mary sighed. We'll, Miss Peggy,
of course l don't want to bother you,
but we do be having such queer
weather of late, and l did think I'd
have all my windows washed before
it rained again"
Well, now, to begin I'll count them
off my fingers, the men to-day and
the most important of the girls. That
ought to take up most Of the after
noon. I'd like to go skating and hour
before dinner. Jack said he might
run in for me. But now really
must begin. Let's see which is most
important? Well, in the first place,
I'll write a note to Dick and tell him
that | simply can't go to the Charity
Ball. To tell the truth I'm not going
to so out anywhere with Dick after
the way he behaved, even il ne did
bring me those adorable Italian COR
ais. I'm not going to make him think
care for him. Let's SIC.
Dear Dick:
Really, I'm awfully SORRY. but
Now, what reason am I going to
give for not going? Oh, I know, the
dancing class meets on that night.
Well, now that's settled. what's next ?
There the bell, who can 1t be?
Come in; oh, Is that you, Mary?"
"A man from the tailor. Miss Peggy.
He wants you to come right down TO
try on your new skirt"
"Oh, Mary, did he say right away"
yes, Miss Peggy. as soon as you
can get there"
Well, perhaps If I take e. car IN
still have time, l reflected, and I did
want that skirt so badly. But after
| had reached the tailor / found that
I simply had to stay.
"Oh, it's much too short" ! said
as the folds fell around me softly.
Longer, miss" said the little man
at my feet his mouth full of pins.
Eyes, and what's the matter with
the drapery or this side?"
THAT will be different as soon as 1t
Is stitched" he said patiently, deftly
pulling it into place.
