One wonderful day they had an ad-

he poured out some milk and broke up
some dry biscuits for him and then
played With him until Peg came home.
She liked the little dog at once, and
then and there O'Conllcll adopted him
and gave him to Peg. He said the
dogs face had Il look of Michael Quin-
Ian. the Icnian. SO Michael he was
named, and he took his place in the
little home. He became Pegs boon
companion. They romped together
like children, and they talked to each
other and understood each other.
The days flowed quietly on, O'Con-

But to Pegs sharp eye all was not

And Peg pretended to cheer up, and
they acted their parts right to the end
until the last line of land disappear

Then they separated and went to their
little cabins to think Of all that had
been. And every day they kept up the
little deception with each other until
they reached America.
They We're cheerless days at first for
O'Connell. Everything reminded him
Of his first landing twenty years be
fore with his young wife-both so full
of hope, with the future stretching out
like some wonderful panorama before
them. He returns twenty years older
to begin the fight a%gain-this time for
his daughter.
His wife was buried in a little Cath.
Ollie cemetery a few miles outside New
York city. There he took Peg one day,
and they put flowers on the little
mound of earth and hnelt awhile in
prayer. Beneath that earth lay not
only his wife's remains. but O'Con-
nell's early hopes and ambitions were
buried with her,
Neither spoke either going to or re-
turning from the cemetery. O'Con-
nelIs heart was too full. Peg knew
what was passing through his mind
and sat With her hands folded in her
lap-silent. But her little brain was
busy thinking back.
Peg had much to think of during the
early days following her arrival in
New York. At first the city awed her
with its huge buildings and ceaseless
whirl of activity and noise. She long
ed to be back in her little green,
beautiful country.
O'Connell was away during those
first days until lHtc at niG.ht.

Peg put up with that just as long as
she could. The,. n day she opened

all the years that followed.
"My-laSt-words, dear, the-last-

She slipped from his arms and lay,
lips parted, eyes open, body still.
The struggle was over. She had
gone where there are no petty treach-
cries, no mean brutalities-where all
stand alike before the throne to rem

PROLOGUE.

A ron1f2ing, madcop, bewitch-
ing Irish girl, as Irish as St. Pot
rick's day in the morning, is
turned OYER to the care of arts
tocrofic English relatives. Thew
are stiff and artificial, and she
rs as sweet and natural as q
healthy country girl IAN be.
They dislike her, but Peg holds
her own with jaunty pride and in
the end, by her generosity and
Dig heaTtedness, wins them over,
ana, whof is more, wins her for
tune, and, what is still more, wi1,s
a very gallant lover. This, in
brief is the story of a play
which BY its originality, sweet
ness and charm has been one of
the most phenomenal successes
New York has seen in a LONG
time. The author of the play
has turned it into a novel, so
sympatheticaHy, so brilliantly,
that Peg as a heroine of fiction
IS as lopabze as she was on the
stage.

'CONNELL had changed very
N much since the days Of st. ker-
q y nan's hill. AS was foreshad-
owed earlier, he no longer urged
violence. He had come under the in
huence of the more temperate men OF
the party and was content to win by
legislative means what Ireland had
failed to accomplish wholly by con-
f1ict, although no one recognized more
thoroughly than O'Connell what a
large part the determined attitude Of
the Irish party in resisting the Eng
lish laws, depriving them Of the right
Of free speech and OF meeting to
spread light among the ignorant, had
played in wringing some measure OF
recognition and of tolerance from the
English ministers.
What changed O'Connell more par
ticularly was the action of a band OF

and shooting at landlords and promi-

What would befall her if he were TAX

The continual thought that preyed
upon him was that he would have
nothing to leave her when his call
came. Do what he would. he could
make but little money, and when he
had Il small surplus he would spend 1t
on Peg-a shawl to keep her warm or

The underskirt is of pink satin and is outrageously short when one considers where it actually stops, the fiounce of cream lace below per- mitting very frank glimpses of pink silk hosiery.

 Following the styles in hair dressing, however does not mean the tresses must be dragged this way and that, each new season, to express the ex- treme modes which come into favor. usually because some actress or other who has adopted a particular coiffure that suits her own individual type and the same has been copied by other women who dream that they may be equally fascinating-if they do their hair the same way. There are certain general lines that prevail in every mode of hair dressing, and 90 long as these are followed there Is no reason why one's individual. becoming mode should not be adhered to. For in- stance. just now. 1t is the fashion to show the contour of the head and no coiffure built out over transformation or ''rat'' can have correct lines.

 So long as prevailing lines are ad- hered to and the effect over forehead and ears is modish, a woman's back hair may be arranged as it pleases her and as best suits her individual style. She may wear Greek knot at the crown of her head; or a Madonna coil below the crown; or may pile her tresses high to make background for her face; but to be modish in gen. eral effect, she must show the contour of her head and she must draw the waves of hair well over forehead, temples and ears.

ernoon frock which claims black vel vet, black lace, black tulle and jet for its component parts. These airy black and white frocks are extremely fash ionable now and every well supplied wardrobe includes a costume of this sort. The model pictured. Jenny creation by the way, shows the longer skirt that Jenny is advocating, though to be sure the length is only suggested, a short underskirt of satin showing through tulle. This underskirt and the bodice part way up-are of white satin. the top of the bodice being of white net. Outer skirt and bodice are of black tulle, strips of black lace al ternating with a wide band of black velvet on the skirt. The panels Of black velvet cross this skirt trimming, but the panels are stitched down on the tulle, really forming part of the skirt itself There ape four of them, two in front and two at the back. The bodice has two trimming straps of vel vet supporting jet banding; and these strips pass over the shoulder from back to front of the jet girdle. The jet banding Is of black gauge embroid- cred with tiny beads and bit of 1t has been set in at the top of the skirt. over the gathered tulle to lengthen the waistline. Under the tulle bodice, above the jet girdle. is the one touch of color in the costume-a strip of wide ribbon in pastel Roman stripes, black-edged at the top. The tulle sleeves are given a pretty finish at the wrist by velvet cordings which curve upward around a slash. Part of the smartness of this costume Is due to the stunning black velvet hat topped with ostrich plumes and cross ostrich aigrette.
 The BustleN Grows More Obvious.
 Last spring one or two couturiers tried to launch the hustle and there are signs which point to its establish ment in favor for the winter season. One of these signs is the very authori- tative little tailleur of Arnold, pictured today. The coat of this costume Is quaintly reminiscent of the seventies, with it's curved back, fitted waistline and godet flare over the hips. The tailleur Is of faille silk in new marine blue shade. with black velvet buttons and collar of beaver fur. The bell sleeves. utton-trimmed, are char acteristic of the reincarnated style. and the tall-crowned hat carries out the idea, also.
 Much more conservative in style, yet also reminiscent of earlier times about the middle eighties-is tailleur of black velvet striped daintily in white.

 A moro extreme type of coiffure Is pictured in the banded style with coils over the ears. This hair dressing is very becoming to the woman with small features and mignonne face, but it Is essentially a coquettish coif- lure and will not become any but pretty wearer It is an ideal style. when the hair is beginning to turn gray, for the long bands of hair brought around from the back, where gray hairs make their appearance last, cover up the graying front locks. and only fluffy little curls show over fore- head and ears.
 But few women with gray hair care to cover 1t up now. The grayer the tresses are the more fashionable. and the number of youthful faces one sees. under cultures of gray or white hair. make one wonder if a good many women who used to patronize hair dyeing establishments have not given up the habit, since gray locks came Into fashion. But gray hair must be youthfully and fufflly arranged if 1t Is to accentuate its wearer's youth rather than to tell tales about her age; and it must be accompanied by the most charming hats and the most fetching frocks. An evening coiffure, arranged with almost white hair is pictured. Anything but old -ladyfied Is this charming coiffure, all afiuff with little curls shading eyes and covering ears; and made alluringly coquettish by a low-drawn bandeau of black tulle.

the wide, gathered skirt portion is net on with tiny cording at the natural waistline. There is much fullness at the back, hanging from the shoulder and the edge of the garment falls short of the skirt edge by several inches. These voluminoue. fur trimmed coats, short enough to show the feet. are coquettish and youthful and have a most dashing swing.
