said Tom.
Van put a slim hand on
his coat sleeve.
"You're a peach" she
murmured-and meant it.
But, after all, it was not
this offer that gave Van
her chance. Not that she
didn't want to go, and
mean to go, and not that
she didn't appreciate his
consideration altogether.
Perhaps Van herself will

IA teen, had always wanted to live
up to her name. Six days out of
u VI seven from s A. NJ to 5 p. NJ. in the
black dress and white collar that is the
disguise of service in the Sergeant Mead
ows Store, she sold modsh evening gowns,
and the people who knew her called her
"Miss Jones" or "Van.' But there was
nothing in the world she wanted so much
as to live up to the fluffy name her parents
had bestowed upon her at the baptsmal
font Van had the manner of violet
and the soul of a sunfower. She longed
to wear gowns, not to sell them. Then,
late one summer afternoon, her chance
came.
To begin with, Tom Cody, of the ship
ping department, earlier in the day had
come to Van with suggestion opening up
a vista of alluring possibility. Tom was
big and brawny He was very much in
earnest. He was eager about his job, as
many flights below Vans in the elevator
shaft as his ambitions were in the social
scale. And he was keen about Van-the
rightful owner of genuine sunshine hair
hazel eyes, sylphlike form, lips that smiled
with rosy ease to display pearly teeth
imitation silver mesh purse, white shoes
with high heels, a tendency to hum mu-
sical-comedy airs, and naive way of To-
eating back hair-pins while she talked to
you. These were eXteriors. Tom Cody
liked them; but Tom could see down in
Vans eyes something that pleased him
more.
"Ive got fine idea for tonight he
began without prelude
"What do you want to do?" she de-
manded languidly That was the violet
over the sunfower.
"Ive got couple of tickets for the
Battery z ball in the Venetian Room of
the Senate Hotel" he announced
His suggestion was like the sun. Van
Jones's ambitions stirred and turned
toward it,
@Will you go?" Tom asked eagerly.
"Will | go!" the girl repeated, with
equal zest. Then: "Isn't it sort of late to
be inviting lady to a swell party, Tom?"
she queried. "Who's died?"
Toms face flushed.
"See here" he exclaimed, "you know
nobody's died. Bill Boswell's been doing
the publicity for Battery u, and he sent
around couple of comps this morning.
They're worth five bucks apiece. Will
you go?"
3I'll go" Van decided. "And, she con-
tinued, her eyes Frightening, "I'll wear
my new silk gown. It's awfully classy,
Tom. Really it is picked it up yester-
day before the sale began. Only eleven
fifty-fve, Tom, and it's worth twenty-five

The sunfower within her fared large
as she pictured her pale green entranceinto
the social whirl as typified by the Venetian
Room and Battery 4.
Tom Cody showed his pride. He rose
to the occasion.

uieos slePpeu Oh 10 tne StatlOn plat
form at Brookedge. She was the last to
leave the train. She watched the impa-
tlent commuters troop north and south
toward lights blurring in the dusk She
looked at the red and green points reced-
ing down the track. She glanced nerv-
ously over her dress to the tips of her
small white shoes. Then she took a step
forward, and stared along the deserted
platform. She had expected to find the
familiar fashionable form of Berthel Carus
hurrying to meet her. Instead as she
looked, dark figure came up to her
Miss Jones?" he demanded.
"Yes," said Van.
"Ths way" the low, muffled voice di-
rccted; and he led the way.
Van followed. He took her to n small
closed cab the kind one finds only in the
suburbs, and held the door open for her.
"You're going to Mrs. Jerrlck's?" she
asked.
The man grunted af1irmatively; then
added, "Shes looking for you.
Van stepped inside, and the door shut
behind her. She sat erect, looking
straight before her A vague unease
possessed her Thoughts came into her
mind. They We're disturbing thoughts,
strangely mingled. First they were of
Berthel Carus, who had failed to meet her
Then her mind jumped to Tom Cody,
whom she had disappointed that she
might not disappoint Carus. Then she
found herself thinking of her home,
perched three flights up in a shabby fiat
building, and Of her mother and father and
little brother. She wondered what they
would think of her first message that she'd
not be home till late. She looked down
at her borrowed gown, and felt mean about
that. She looked out into the black
ness. If it weren't so hopeless, she
thought she might like to jump out But
her formless fear kept her where she was.
She wondered when the ride would come
to an end.
AT last the driver jerked his horse to a
stop. Van looked out to see the lights
of a large isolated house penciing the
darkness. The cab door opened. She got
out. The driver resumed his seat,
back into the night
Out of her prison, Van telt better She
laughed uncertainty at her recent misgiv-
ings. Something had detained Carus, of
course. She had been silly. She was not
afraid; she could finish what she had
started.
She walked boldly up on the veranda.
Almost instantly the door swung open.
A distinguished gentleman in full dress
confronted her. She knew him for but
ler She remembered reading somewhere
that buffers sometimes announced arriv-
ais. She tried to say easily, "Miss Jones'"
but the legend caught in her throat. She
went where he directed and let maid take
her hat and modest cloak. She surveyed
herself in the mirror of maple dressing
table. The view was reassuring. She
tried her smile again. 1t was still working.
She went down the broad stairs and into
a large room, wearing the smile.
There was no one in the room. The
cracking log fire was friendly, and she
was moving toward its companionable
glow when suddenly what appeared to be
solid white woodwork at one end of the
room slid open, and she heard gay voices

but he hurried on
"You think I'm kidding, don't you?
Well, I'll show you I'm not. I'm going
out in the world tonight. To be explicit,
I'm going into Brookedge society You

closed last week. Will you come along?'
Van caught her breath
al don't think you re very nice to make
fun of me, she said.
"lm not. That's the point, Miss Jones.
| have hunch you can play up to Mrs
Jerrck's style and come her one better.
And I'm asking you to go. There's six

five. I'll have the family hack there to

Van tried hard to look disnterested;
but it was difficult. Mrs. Gerald .Jer-
rick?" she couldn't help asking
Carus nodded "The same" said he.
But | haven't anything to wear
OF course that is not what she should
have said. But Van for the time had for
gotten some things, and she spoke the
thought uppermost in her simple mind
"Why, you look like a million dollars
right now, the man averred.
But it isn't mine"
"You got one like it, you said
"It's at home
"Well?"
"That's miles away, Mr. Carus |
couldn't possibly make it,
Carus pondered, then smiled.
"Any of the gowns in your department

"Sure," said Van.
"Ever suspect they'd been worn?7
The girl laughed.
"We know it, sometimes. But that's
by folks like-Mrs. Jerrick7
"l've said she hasn't got anything on
you!'
"What do you mean she hasn't
Van hesitated. His piratical idea had
reached her.
"Of course it'd be almost like wearing
my own,' she mused.
Exactly Carus put in quickly.

INJURED to her reflection, Mrs. Jerrick, it

dropped her pose. Her face had grown
piquant with remembrance. Back into
her consciousness had flashed Tom Cody.
She wondered what she could do. Carus
was out of reach. If she could have
reached him-but she couldn't Mean

was simple. She had been
waiting for a long while
for single gilded OPP
portunlty to seem what she'd like to
be. And, when Mr. Berthel Carus came
along with his astounding proposition,
Van remembered-an forgot. She re-
membered her longing, and forgot Tom
Cody.
Berthel always looked as if he had Just
stepped out of a barber shop. His collars
were of the proper height his cravats of
the correct width, his trousers the current
distance from the heel And, though
young Mr.. Carus was toiling in the bust
ness Office of the great store at something
like twelve dollars week, no one
doubted that he was merely seeking
what young man has to seek after the
academies are through with him: Berthel
was in search OF experience.
| II was later afternoon. Carus, hat in
hand, passing through Vans department
to pick up some detail of the closing days
work before he left for his suburban train
stopped short when he beheld the lovely
Miss Jones lingering before ii three-sided
mirror. radiant vision in pale green silk
She was doing strange thing. Uncon-
scious of an onlooker she was stepping
back to get full view, and she was nod
ding smilingly at her own reflection.
Then she cooked her shiny yellow head
and studied herself askance. Then she
nodded again. And Berthel Carus heard
her say, softly but distinctly "Thank
you very much; I've had lovely time.
Carus coughed. Van founced about
with soft silken crescendo; but she did
not lose her poise.
ooh, how do you do, MIR. Carus?' she
nodded
They laughed together.
Carus was inarticulate. He thought he
had never seen anything lovelier. He
said so.
eagerly. "You know, I've got one just
like it at home It's the first honest-to-
goodness nice dress I've ever had. But of
course you don't know" she went on
quickly, embarrassed.
She had known Carus year or more,
but she had never been so unreserved with
him before The peach-blow of her cheeks
deepened. Carus liked the effect.
"Say," he exclaimed, "your customers
haven't got anything on you, Miss Jones!7
Her eyes widened. Here was remark
she had longed to hear. But she tossed
her head and parried:
"You're just being nice"
"Not at all. think you know I'm not. "
"Well, the girl temporized, an admit
the thin lady I've been showing these
frOckS tn haSp'f Gu rpn.b
She laughed as she pointed to the rain
bow disarray on the tables and thought
of the angular woman
There was pause. Carus was think
ing. AT last he said:
"Miss Jones, really meant what said
I've known lot of girls, society girls and
all, and I'll wager none of 'em has a thing
on you in that green dress"
