her that very night at the dance to be
given under the auspices of st. Barna-

1t was a very grand affair for work

wanted to feel for once that she was
as well-dressed as any of these. And so
she had taken home the finished gown,

the shop on the morrow.
She noted with happiness low every

at the stylishly dressed girl in the yell
low satin and dainty dancing slippers.
The streets were dry, st. Barnabas'
rectory only a few steps from the car
line, and presently Lucy found herself
standing among a crowd of girls who
looked at her with envy.
But she had little thought of their
envy when she met Tom, respondent
in his white shirtfront and black eve
ming clothes. She saw Tom look at
her in amazement, and when he took
her by the hand and put down his
name for no fewer than six dances,
Lucy knew that her innocent scheme

1t was after the third dance that
Lucy became conscious of a pair OF
basilisk eyes transfixing her from
across the room, where, on a raised
dais, the lady p~atronesses of the st.
Barnabas' social were watching the
dancers with eomplacent interest.
Lucy raised her eyes to meet the
glare. She saw Mrs. Cramer staring
at her through her lorgnette.

Oatmeal used in this way makes

When it is necessary to iron a
rough-dry garment at once, try this
method. Damp it, roll tight, wrap in
a cloth and then in paper and put it
into the oven while the irons are heat

thoroughly dampened in a very few
minutes; but care must be taken that
the oven is not hot enough to scorcb
the things.

actual cost to the Holland Torpedo
Boat Company, exclusive Of over

to be upward of $2,366,000. This
