turning soon, Ouida pirouetted before
the admiring designer.
She was more than beautiful. The
adventure lent an unusual glow to
cheek and lip; her black curling hair
was loosened up little. and tiny ring
let's framed he' face and fell on her
white neck.
superb A dreamw murmured the
enthralled Reggie, dropping on one
knee to fix place In the heln. There
was knock at the door and Miss
wainwright was called out.
"What a wonderful talent, Mr.. San
terre. It's an exquisite pleasure to be
your manikir am really crazy about
beautiful Clothes" said Ouida, as she
admired herself and the gown In the
mirror. "And doesn't 1t make the big
gest difference in one? Why, I'm al
most good looking!'' she observed in
nocently.
'"You are beautiful. Miss Laurent ;
and so appreciative."
"Oh, Bert Is appreciative."
"Oh. Bert is appreciative-indeed she
is. but she simply does not care for
clothes. Now, I've always liked to try
things on. 1 60 to the shops and try
on things just to enjoy being fused
over. 81 think, Miss Louise, you'll have
to keep this, and will design some
thing else for Miss Wainright-some-
thing with--pockets."
Bert pushed the door open, saying
rather coldly: They've called for me.
Will you folks mind II tear myself
away?" Then, her eyes falling on the
afrighted Louise: my, but you're q
beauty, Ouida. That ought to be yours.
Well, so long; sorry I'm so rushed"
And she hurried away, leaving the
man and the manikin to talk dry
goods to their hearts content.
Bert met an old-time friend and a
seasoned hiker, Mary Gregory, at the
end of the car line, and they trudged
on into the country.
That evening Bert wrote long.
frank, sisterly letter to Mr.. Santerre.
although she expected to see him at
least every day for few days, ex-
planning In the kindest manner possible
that they were unsuited to each other ;
that she could not think Of standing
In the way of his ambitions, and per-
suadIng him to seek larger field for
his unusual talents. She also told him
that she and Mary Gregory were going
to France to assist In the work that
Mr.. Henry Allen was trying to do for
the Kansas soldiers, winding up with :
"And I'll kiss you goodbye like a little
sister If you'll get the suit with the
pockets ready before I CO."
In the night she was awakened by
q little sob.
'Bertie, I feel meaner than dirt
Aren't you a little sorryT
"Sure thing, Ouida, old pard: but
it's only a wrench, and as time goes
by we'll all honor me because had
the nerve to do the thing that's going
to make us all rise up and call me
blessed. Mary and are going to look
for Dick Gregory over there. He likes
to hike, and he-likes corduroy. Now,
will you cut out the weepy stun and
go to sleep?"

elrde Get No Fra Out d SINGING.

"That the singing Of birds bears no
analogy to the singing of human be-
ings. and is neither to please them
selves nor to please others, Is obvious
from ut least two facts: One Is that
birds with defective or only half ar
tlculate voices viii sing just as Joy
ousIy and persistently ms do birds
whose instruments are perfect" John
Burroughs writes In Harper's. II have
witnessed this In the case Of the
hermit thrush, the bobolink and the
cockerel Of the barnyard. The birds
of the wood and of the meadow quite
ignored their split whistles, and the
cockcrel nrched his neck and inflated
his lungs and went through with the
motions of Growing Just as proudly
and repeatedly as did the cock he was
challenging"
