She found the other girls ON the
point Of departure. But Edna offered
to wait for her.
mo, you run along" Rose said. Tive
some errands, and don't feel like see
ing movie tonight, anyway"
Edna looked a little odd about It,
but hurried along after the others.
A saleswoman-the same one the
manager had assigned to Rose, under
| the misconception which that smart
French ulster Of hers had created
when she came into the store-now
came around behind the screen to
gather up the frocks the girls had shed.
"Win you please bring me-" said
Rose, "the Poiret model you showed
me before the others came inf I'll
try it on"
The saleswoman's manner was diff
ferent now, and she grumbled some
thing about its being closing time.
'Then, If you'll bring it at once :"
said Rose. And the saleswoman went
on the errand.
Five minutes later, Galbraith, from
staring gloomily at the mournful heap
Of trouble Mrs. Goldsmith had left on
his hands, looked up to confront q
vision that made him gasp.
II wanted you to see II You liked
this" said Rose.
III I like It'll" he echoed. "Look
herel II you knew enough to pick
out things like that, why did you let
that woman waste everybody's time
with junk like this? Why didn't you
help her out?"
II couldn't have done much" Rose
said, "even II my offering to do any.

think it would have. You see, she's
got lots Of taste, only it's bad. She
wasn't bewildered bit. She knew
just what she wanted, and she got it.
It's the badness of these things she
likes. And thought :" She
hesitated' little over this II
thought that it would be easier to
throw them all out and get q fresh
start"
He stared at her with a frown of
curiosity. That's good sense" he
said. "But why should you bother to
think of it?''
Her color came up perceptibly as she
answered. "Why-Iw want the piece to
succeed, Of course :" Rose turned
rather suddenly to the saleswoman. II
wish you'd get that little Empire frock
in maize and cornflower," she said.
I'D like Mr.. Galbraith to see that,
too" And the saleswoman, now pla.

"This thing that I've got on" said
Rose swiftly, "costs a hundred and

exactly, Of course, but I can come
near enough"
"Will you try this one on, missf''
asked the saleswoman, coming on the
scene again with the frock she had
been sent for.
"No," said Rose. "Just hold it up"
Galbraith admitted it was beautiful,
but wasn't overwhelmed at all as he
had been by the other.

ter-of-factness. II could design the
costumes and pick out the materials"
she said, ''but we'd have to get a good
sewing woman-perhaps more than
one-to get them DONE"
He wasn't greatly surprised. Per
haps the notion that she might suggest
something Of the sort was responsible
for the tentative. dubious way in which
he had said he supposed It couldn't
be done.

CHAPTER XVIII.
A Business Proposition.


Buzzing around In the back Of John
Galbraith's mind was an unworded
protest against the way Rose had Just
killed her own beauty, with q thick
white veil, 20 nearly opaque that all It
let him see Of her face was an inter
mittent gieam Of her eyes. The bust
ness between them was over, and
all she was waiting for was q word
Of dismissal, TO nod him Q fare

prise over his having made q request
instead Of giving an order.
'Do you think you'll be able to con-
vince Mrs. Goldsmith" she asked,
as they walked down the east side Of
the avenue together, 'that her gowns
don't look well on the stage7"
Probably not" he said. "No, she
won't be convinced, and II / know
Goldsmith, he'll say his wife's taste Is
good enough for him. SO II we want q
change, we've fight on our hands,"
The way he had unconsciously
phrased that sentence startled him q
little.
"The question is," he went on,
whether they're worth making a fight
about. Are they as bad as I think
they are7"
"Oh. yes" said Rose. They're dow
dy and fourth-class and ridiculous. OF
course don't know how many people
in the audience would know that"
"And I don't care" said John Gal
braith, with a flash OF intensity that
made her look around at him. 'That's
not consideration I'll give any weight
to. When put production under my
name, it's the best I can make with
what I've got When I have to take
cynical view and try to get by with
bad work because most Of the people
out In front won't know the difference,
I'll go out to my little farm on Long
Island and raise garden truck"
There was another momentary 81
lence, for the girl made no comment
at all on this statement Of his credo.
But he felt sure, somehow, that she
understood It, and presently he went
on speaking.
"Would it be possible, do you think,
to get better gowns that would also
be cheaper7 That argument would
bring Goldsmith around in a hurry. It's
ridiculous, Of course, but that's the
trouble with making a production for
amateurs. You spend more time fight
ing them than you do producing the
show"
II don't believe" said Rose, ''that
you could get better ready-made cos
tunes lot cheaper; the two or three
we might be able to find wouldn't help
| us much"
"And I suppose" he said dubiously,
"it's out of the question getting them
any other way than ready made; that
is, and cheaper, too"
The only sign Of excitement there
was in the girls voice when she an

in beauty. He says that In Brazil he
