last Monday, disguised and discour-
aged with life as she found it from
behind the counters of the State st.
stores, she fought her great battle
with herself. The desire for the ne
cessities of life triumphed. She
turned her mothers picture to the
wal, daubed a little powder on her
already clear face and hurried into
the night to patrol the streets.
But Lillian's self-consciousness
proved her undoing. She made one
or two weak attempts at Irritation.
But when men came toward her she
faltered.
A plain-clothes man caught sight
of Lillian parading the streets. He
followed her, saw her-make curious,
awkward little bows to men on the
street and then arrested her.
Judge Heap heard her case yes
terday. And when the girl, be-
tween choked sobs, had gotten half
way in her arraignment of the mil

like sternness of the veteran jurist,
who has heard so many hardened
tales in the morals court, was re-
placed by look of sympathetic ten

The girl looked peculiarly out of
place standing before the bar of the
morals court. She was dressed sim
ply, like an old-fashioned high school
girl. He face was strangely soft and

That's the way o. Henry wound up
his Unfinished Story" the tale of
DuIcie, the $6-a-week department
store girl, who lived in a hall bed
room and who saved herself from
''the easiest way by the ideal of Lord
Kitchener.
Dulcie of the story paid 81 for
room. Her breakfasts and lunches
cost her altogether $1.2O for the
week and her dinners came to $1.05.
The rest Dulcie could spend on
clothes, if she found the right sort of
bargains.
But DuIcie with her Sc was a prin-
cess compared to Lillian H., who was

few years ago expecting to find the

What Lillian really found was
drudgery in the State st. department
stores for rotten wages, cheap hall
bedrooms, unfit food and an average
of two dresses a year.
Lillian has been working at
Woolworth's 5 and 10 cent store for
the past six months. Her wages have
been 81 a week. Department store
owners testifying before the O'Hara
vice commission said that they pay
living wages.
Possibly Lillian may not be quite
as economical as the department
store owners, but for some reason
she could not live on 81 a week.
