his enforced seclusion He had read
no papers.
However, his play was finished.
More than little dragged and tired
from strenuous tension of nerves and
energy, he made his way back to living
beings and the city of friends.
He had no premonition, no mint OF
the. tragedy that was awaiting him IN
town. Elise Watterson's father had
been found guilty of embezzlement,
had been sentenced, but escaped pun
ishment by a shot. Elise, feeling the
disgrace keenly, had disappeared from
the face of the earth. At least Eric
Leonard found his search for her in
vain.
Cursing himself for selfish brute
for not having left his address with
her, and feeling that she would have
communicated with him in her distress
he almost sank beneath the burden or
misery that had descended upon him.
His misery did not, however, prevent
managers from reading his play and
accepting it with fattering alacrity.
Being known as a newspaper man, ETC
had little difficulty in gaining a hear
ing and consequent success. His play
was strong and the public welcomed It
after many successive failures had
been withdrawn.
Eric seemed scarcely to realize that
he was now a man of fame and quickly
aurmenting financial power. All he
was really conscious of was the fact
that somewhere in the world Elise
Watterson wandered, perhaps home
s,1Ix cuff ori ~
! II was the sudden sight OF the new
dawn gown in a secondhand clothing
shop that finally gave Elise back to
him. He had seen it heaped in the win
dow with an odd assortment of bar
gains and Eric went into the shop like
man who has a glimpse of Paradise
shining before him.
Fortunately for Eric's purpose the
clothing man had bought much from
the wardrobe of Elise and knew her
address. Having obtained 1t and pur-
chased the frock Eric went his way.
He found his dawn girl bending over
the bit of fine embroidery by which
she was beginning her life as work
/ ing girl. She was dressed in simple
black and her hair shone like a sunrise
above the somber clouds. Her smile
when she looked up at her visitor and
realized all that his presence meant
was wonderful to behold. Eric drew a
quick breath then stepped forward and
crushed her in his arms. The proud
golden head dropped against his shout

he was trembling with the joy of know

points off his pen In an effort to make
himself worthy to win Elise Waiter
man for his own.
He went home that night with an in
spiration such as he had never known
before. He would write novel, play
something big that would hurl him
once and for all time into the world Of
success and financial strength. After
that he could tell Elise that he loved
her Eric heaved a sigh and hoped
fame would overtake him before many
new dawns. He rejoiced inwardly that
the early hours Of the day had always
been his best time for work Somehow
Elise and her dawn gown seemed al
ways present when the sun peered at
him over the house tops.
Fortunately he was a practical and
not fanciful writer What he wrote
he wrote because it was what the pub
lie wanted and not what he himself
considered good.
Before the idea for the great play
came to him, Eric saw as much as pos
sible of Elise. He tried, without put
ting 1t into words, to convey to her the
knowledge that she was the mistress of
his heart, and that one day he would
tell her SO. 1t seemed difficult and
yet Eric felt occasionally that Elise
was sending queer little telepathic mes
sages of rather delightful import into
his inner consciousness. The knowl-
his senses reeled in anticipation of the
day upon which his tongue could ex-
press the love he bore her.
When the great idea came to him
for the play that was to make him
famous Eric made the one false step
in his career He went off into the Sc
clusion of the country to concentrate
and left no address behind him.
Friends, even the best of them, were
bound to destroy his train Of thought.
Seclusion, absolute and perfect was
his only need, and Eric disappeared in
to that seclusion. Short notes. with
just word Of explanation, informed
his friends Of his departure and inten-
ded application to work.
When Elise, Waterman read the
brief noto of farewell feeling of de-
preston swept over her She felt sud
denly very lonely, and knew that she
would not be really happy until Eric
Leonard returned to her SIDE She
wished that he had at least trusted her
with his address,
But Eric had trusted no one with
knowledge of his whereabouts, Elise
least Of all, for even the sight of her
writing would drag his thoughts away
from plays and into day dreams of the
timo when she should be his

Ieonard saw the gown for the first
time in the Van Tyle's drawing room.
His artistic senses were stimulated TO
a. degree quite foreign to them, for
Leonard was not of an artistic nature.
He was the more surprised, then, that
gown worn by perfectly strange
woman should so excite his admiration.
Usually, Eric Leonard found MS
senses stirred, if they were to be mov'
ed, by purely personal charm. He was
never in the least certain whether his
companion wore pink, yellow or green,
and whether her hair was coppery or
raven black.
Therefore in view Of the strange
emotion awakened within him, he went
Immediately to his hostess and craved
an introduction to the girl in the pink
dress. He indicated Elsie Waterman
with a nod of his head In the direction
of the tall girl who was laughing light

His hostess raised rebuking eye
brows at him.
Pink! My dear Eric, that is new
dawn, not pink She let fall the last
word as if it were word erased from
the latest dictionary for society.
Cali right, new dawn" laughed Eric,
rejoicing that he was a mere man and
not expected to know pink from any
other color. He followed his hostess
until she had piloted him and left him
at anchor beside Elise Waterman. who
had turned with a delighted smile at
his approach, and Eric knew the girl

NEDDIE's WOODEN SLIDE.

| NEDDIE'S WOODEN SLIDE.
!, In the warm winter cave Neddie
and Beckle Stubtail, the two little
bear cub children, were sleeping once
more. They were warm and cozy in
their bed of dried leaves, and the soft
cotton from the inside of the milk
weed plant, and they had nearly for
gotten about the time they went out,
were caught in the snow storm, and
crawled into the hollow log.
But, all of sudden. Neddie awak-
ened once more. This was several
days after the snow storm. 1t did not
take much to awaken that bear boy
Neddie. In fact he slept with one eye
open.
Hist! Beckie. Are you awaken"
asked Neddie in whisper.
! mo. I'm asleep" answered Beckie,
sort of laughing to herself at the little
trick she was playing on her brother.
Jaw, you are mott" whispered Ned
die. Il say come on Let's have some
fun!'' he exclaimed. I'm tired of
sleeping so much in this cave"
80 am T. spoke Beckie, crawling
softly away from the side of her
mother. But we mustn't go outside
the cave again We might get caught
in another snow storm"
| mo, Wen stay right in here said
Neddie. THE weather fooled me last
time. That was only January thaw
and I thought it was spring. Now,
Beckie, We'll have some real fun
| What are you going to do?" asked
the little bear girl. DO you want me
to get out my dolls? I'll let you play
with one"
"Oh, thank you very kindly said
| Neddie politely, but boy bears don't
play with dolls. How would you like
to go sliding down hill, Becker"
Il would like it above everything!'
exclaimed the little bear girl, but
we're not to go outside the cave, you
| know. We made enough trouble last
time for papa, going out and making
him pull us home in the hollow log"
I'm not going out said Nedd1e.
Then how are you going to slide
down hill?' his sister wanted to know.
"I'll show went on Neddie. I'm
going to make wooden slide
! "a wooden slide!" cried Beckie. 81
never heard of such thing
Help me get the long ironing board
said Neddie, speaking in a whisper, for
Mr.. and Mrs. Stubtail. the papa and
mamma bear were still fast asleep and
the little cubs did not want to awaken
them
How can you slide on the ironing
board?" asked Beckie. THAT isn't
slippery as snow and ice are"
I'll show you" spoke Neddie as he
and his sister carried the ironing board
from the kitchen and stood it up slant
ingly on a chair in the dining-room,
with one end Of the board on the floor.
Now, there's the wooden hill spoke
Neddie. "All we have to. do is to sit on
and slide to the bottom
1--WE can't. It's too splintery OBJ
jected Beckie "The boards wooden
splinters will stick in our fur"
"Tll fix that" said Neddie. "ill put
some melted candle grease on the
board. That will make it slippery and
shiny just as mamma makes the irons
smooth when she is ironing the
starched clothes
ooh. that's fun exclaimed Beckie.
Hush. Not so loud" said Nedd1e IN
a Whisper, holding his paw over
Beckie's lips.
Soon the ironing board was nicely
splashed with wax from the candle,
and it was as slippery as heart could
