N all her short life CaryI had
never been so chagrined and
4 wounded as she was by Harry
somerdyke's cavalier manner when
she met him with another girl. As
the Door little stenOgrapher walked
away from the great hotel, her heart
was hot within her. Her vanity was
cut to the quick She was not aceus-
toned to receiving attention from
men. and she had believed from Som
erdvl1e's manner that he found in her
the most attractive woman he had
ever met.
If not, why had he sought her Sc
ciety and paid her such marked atten-
ton? She had supposed that after
he knew her better he would ask her
t. be mis- wife She had made men
tai pictures of the home she would
sometime have, above all Of the beau
tiful gowns she would wear, gowns
as handsome as the one she nao seen
on the lay figure IN the COSTUME - -
hibit at the Waldorf Yet just now
when she saw the man Of her dreams
in the company OF q fashionable girl,
he had hardly recognized his cOmpan-
ion of the day before, and his bear
ing had been cold and naughty She
had suddenly felt that he was LOOKING
down upon her. and that in ms esi-
nation she was inferior to the pretty
creature by his side
Hour after hour, while she walked
the streets, then returned to her room
and tried to rest, the fire Of lndislla-
! ton burned. At five o'clock, as ar
ranged last night, she met her sister
at the entrance to Baird's s
well" said Julia, as the pair
started together toward Broadway
where shall we get something 20

'oh, I don't care" replied CaryI
ustlessly
My plan" remarked Julia. ignoring
the Indifferent manner, rs TO get an
early supper, go on the subway up
/ town, and from there take the trolley
s out into the country, or at least lhto
I the suburbs It ought 70 ne 1oEels
out there tonight, for there IS noi
cloud in the sky and there IS golns
/ to be a gorgeous moon
( "All right" assented .CaryL u nave
4 some things I want to talk 70 you
! about, and all that time together viii
( give me the chance
! rs anything wrong?" asked Julia
/ solicitiOusly.
f! 'Everything's WrOngH' exclaimed
] Caryl. But I don't want TO talk
about it now"
1 she had brooded so long upon her
] grievance that she felt she must
/ share il with her sister While mat
/ tiers went pleasantly, she did not need
/ Julia. but when they went aWry she
I turned to her instinctlVely How
J ever, she did not feel like talking Just
{ vet. She was faint. for she had eaten
/ no luncheon, as her temper had taken
/ awav her appetite. Her sister eyed
her anxiously when she learned Of her
sWhv. nv dear little girl" she de-
/ INJURED. you should not starve your
/ self like that"
II wasn't hungry salq cary; gu,
do let's get something decent to eat
now. I'm sick of cheap messes-
Julia hesitated. Then YOU would
: rather not to go to Wild's for supper
! perhaps?' she suggested
! turned CaryI. do let's go to some
restaurant that's not so common
Swell restaurants are entirelE Pc
yCnd my means" Julia reminded mel
timidly. Then she remembered Ina'
She had heard one of the floor walk
ers in Baird's talking to friend Of
I a certain Italian restaurant WneIs
one could "get a good dinner WIN
wine for IS cents" This did not
seem cheap to Julia, but It was mel
duty to make sacrifices for CaryL
Suppose we go to Banta' sns
