chum was living life that was en-
tirely opposite in every respect.
With comparatively slight differ
ences of temperament the two girls
had grown up side by side, had shared
each others thoughts, experiences,
studios, impressions, and the daily
happenings. This was bound to make
them more or less alike. though Ruth

her bags together, as she had been
told. and followed porter up the

eyes were round as saucers as she
