She stared silently for several mo-
ments at the face of her unknown step
son before replacing the silver frame
upon the crowded table behind her.
Ellen, whose sense of the romantic had
been touched by this situation, looked
at her with new interest. Mrs. JOS

with luxurious pleasure, apparently
dismissed the subject from her mind,
for when she spoke again, it was Of
Ellen.

cups for more tea. 1t was wonder
full hour.
She was able to see now how really
beautiful young Mrs. Josselyn was.
Her golden brown hair was wound
carelessly in glorious waves and coils
above her white forehead, and her
white hand, heavily ringed, lay against
the dark wood of the chair-arm with
all the pure beauty of alabaster. She
sometimes raised her glittering eye
lashes, brown eyelashes with hint of
gold in them, to smile lazily at her
husband, but for the most part she
was inert, making no effort to be more
than q lovely picture.
Mrs. Rose asked her about Paris,
and she answered casually. Ellen did
not know that she was trying to make
the older woman think that travel,
wealth and the free purchase of gowns
and jewels were but an ordinary part
of the days work to Lillian Keller.
Ellen was deeply interested and even
thrilled by their talk. Her loyalty
and affection were bound to Mrs. Rose !;
she decided that young Mrs. Josselyn
was not a gentlewoman. All those
blazing jewels at informal tea
A great-grandfather's clock in the
dimness of the room doomed half-past
FIVE And with a cold and joyous rush,
the youngsters came in for their tea.
That was Ellen Latimer's last happy
minute in the Rose house. The little
velvet dress did not fall from her as
the clock struck but she would have
been happier running away from them
all into the night, bare of feet and
hair, and in her shabbiest kitchen
dress, than she was to be here, in all
their luxury and warmth.
They were introduced, and they nod
ded, f1inging furs and wraps into the
arms of silent, patient, waiting maids.
Ellen marveled at their sports-clotbes,
the soft Swiss coats, the smart, shaggy
little caps, the velvet skirts with their
big buttons, the silk blouses so i'm
maculately white. Lucia was not
pretty, but how smart she was, and
how she chartered! Doris was pretty,
and everything else that Ellen would
have liked to be as well. The FIVE
boys were all quite young, fresh-faced,

well-groomed, specifically poised in
spite of their youthful clumsiness.
There were nine of them, altogether.
They talked only to each other, in
sort of running fire of growing and
tittering and laughing. 1t was impos-
sible for an outsider to follow their
conversation, and even when the older
people had drifted away, and Ellen
was left with them, they made no con-
cessions for her.
Oh, what fool she was to come
here at all, she thought, undressing
late that night. And how she hated
them all They felt her unwelcome,
and shabby. and different, and the Bit
ter thing was that Ellen knew that
they were right. She could not speak
/, their language, nor understand them
when they spoke; her little attempts
at merriment fell fiat. her best gown
was not as smart as their simplest
sporting outfit. She had gone down
stairs timidly, in the fussy little lace
dress, to have them presently follow in
their exquisite simpliclties of sheer
linen and lawn, with girlish touches of
pink baby roses or childish wide Ro-
man sashes, plain silk stockings, plain
ly dressed little satiny heads, with jew
eled pins tucked trinity against the
coils and plaits. How fresh, how vir-
ginal, they were; schoolgirls just on
the threshold of womanhood, seven
teen, eighteen. nineteen Ellen's TWEEN
ty-two years seemed suddenly grimy
and gray. A sense of injustice seized
her. She had never been as young and
sweet and confident as they were
They were all in love with life, and
with each other; 1t was a pity that
they could not spare little love for
Ellen, too. But Dorothy complimented
Lucia, and Lucia, Doris, and Doris in
turn told Mary that she looked ador-
able. No one of them gave to Ellen the
word for which she hungered, or, bet
