The order will, it is believed will have a most wholesome effect in stopping much of the trouble.

the months before to make her fortune
by her poor little wits. Back home her
writing had brought her some money.
She had believed if she could get to
the city-to the very center of things
she could do better work But she
had failed steadily until she had come
to this. There was no help to be had
from home, for her grandmother had
written two days before for little
money with which to pay the taxes.
And Elsa had sent it, of course, trust
ing to this wonderful story of hers
which now lay in the envelope beside
her.
She reached down her hand for it
presently, but she brought up the
pamphlet instead-what she believed
was a pamphlet. Absently she tore away
the wrapper and saw the word 'Prospec-
tus." The Cosmopolite had sent her a
prospectus, After all her stories 1t had

derneath her name was a briefly ex-
planatory note-"AIiss Elsa May a
writer upon the editorial staff of Per-

She stared at the words and the color
rose in her face. How beautiful it
looked to her. And how beautiful it
would have been to her if only it had
been true!
But it was not true. That thought

made such mistake? Should she let it
go? Perhaps no one would learn the
difference and it might mean much to
her. And yet to let it go would not be
honest. Above all things Elsa was
honest. Back and forth few her rea-

She would let it go-it was not her
fault. But then it was not fair to let 1t
go: it was purely mistake and she

And the thing was done. Would the edi-
tor thank her for calling his attention
to his own mistake?
For an hour Elsa struggled. Then her
conscience prevailed. She arrived at a
decision She would go to the editor
and tell him of his mistake. And he
could take it as he would. She would
at least be square with her own soul
And then she would go to work again
Oh. God. grant that she sell something
before she got too hungry.

she thought Maybe he'll take it. He
won't pay much. but IL he pays any

shocking is SO lovely in itself that
everybody who can manage to buy a
shocked frock of blouse or to make
one should do so.
shocking, when 1t means rows and
rows of fine shirring as a preliminary
step, is perhaps difficult. But now the
pattern companies, always quick to
make capital of any fashion, have SIM
plified these preliminary steps. The ma
