 The saleswoman, who knew her business, shrugged her shoulders, with supreme indifference. "Try it on, If you like" she said, But you will not like it. Gray is not for colorless women.'
 May stiffened. She did not like to be called 'colorless," She thought of herself as being the tone of mother pearl.
 "Madame's lovely skin needs u background like this" the woman went on smoothly, and before May knew what she was doing, she had flung the mink coat around her
 Even the phlegmatic Carlotta gave went on smoothly, and before May nestled her chin into the soft fur. The collar rose flatteringly behind her dark hair.
 A line of Robert Browning's s flashed through her brain;

 Without single pang of regret. May peeled six of her remaining $500 bills from the roll in her bag, and handed them to the breathlesf salesWoman,

 You certainly ought to take great pleasure in it, for in all my life, Leslie l have never known a woman who has been so wonder- fully fattered before No wonder Melville Sartoris is irresistible, if he pays his devoirs 10 each woman vho strikes his fancy as he has done 10 you"
 What do you moan syd' have never heard you speak so causti- csllv,'
 T guess I'm jealous, that's all. Melville has done this thing so beautifully. h. has done something that, however much l should ever care for a woman, I should never be able 10 do, I would not know how. And you can say what you please, 2 woman likes 10 have money spent upon her if il IS done pith good tastc and imagination.

THE STORY so FAR

May Seymour, whose husband killed himself because of her love affair with Jim Carewe, returns home after a years absence. She disposes of her inherited property, and with $S,OoO in her handbag, sets out 10 find and marry a man with money.
 At Atlantic City she meets a di- vorcee, Carlotta Trolking, and her two friends, Herbert Waterbury and Dan Sprague. Waterbury and sprague both pay suit to May, to the distress of Carlotta, who has been in love with Dan for twelve years.
 He asks May to marry him, but May refuses, having made up her mind that Waterbury is the million aire husband she has set her heart upon,
 Waterbury, however, does not pro pose; and May has all but decided 10 go to Europe when Carlotta asks her to spend the winter with her in California
 About this time. Waterbury com plains of his annual attack of gout, and tells May he Is going to leave for the west soon So May accepts Carlotta's invitation.
 (NOW GO ON WIT 1.-THE STORY) May sat silent, watching the chambermaid pack away Carlotta's $ dresses in the huge wardrobe trunks that stood in the middle of the floor. The door of the clothes closet stood open; and within it were still more dresses-bright-hu things of silk and cobwebby lace. Carlotta s things were always the sort that 3 very young girl might wear to her | first party
 Below them on the floor, stood 3 neat row of slippers The dressing table was covered with boxes of powder, jars of rouge and bottles of perfume and toilet water. The sight of these things stirred | In May q wholly feminine longing for things like them-new clothes and new cosmetics to enhance her beauty in the somewhat bored eyes of Herbert Waterbury, | She looked down et her plain black dress and walking shoes with great dissa tisfaction.

 Park yourself behind me, satan" I said. "If I'm going 10 so 10 sleep, I'll take the hot milk"
 "I wish l had your will power" Lillian sighed. But then" brighten- ing, coffee puts me 10 sleep as well as he keeps me awake, so 1t doesn't matter when l drink it,"
 Isn't she the eighth wonder in the logic lne?' Katherine demand ed of me, "You mean" she turned 10 Lillian severely, that you're 30 saturated with coffee that 1t no longer has any effect upon you, either for sleeping or waking. l ought to get my walking papers as q nurse for bringing 1t to you, but you're a law 10 yourself, and l suppose you have 10 be humored, especially as 1t really doesn't appear to affect you.'
 The inhnitesimal portion l get from you wouldn't affect an in- somniac." Lillian grumbled, DO you know, Madge. she used to keep this to herself down in the kitchen, and bring me this other stuff" she waved her hand in an expression of infinite disgust toward the pitcher of steaming milk, until rebelled utterly. No coffee, no milkee,' l said to her Tn effect. and finally, see ing that I meant business she capitulated to certain extent. But the bargain she drives would make old shylock turn green with envy could he know about 1t. I get about a thlnbleful of coffee as a reward for downing about gallon of that baby food"
 Madge Tells Katherine
 She pointed to the milk pitcher again with such ferocity of contempt that Katherine and laughed. But the little nurse inexorably poured out a glass of the milk and held 1t out to her,
 "'Baby tood' Is right" she said. IA bigger baby than you are don't know. Turn on now, dink a nice milk, and Mamma Il div you nice toffee toff
 Her imitation of fond young mother coaxing baby was inimit- able. and Lillian grinned reluctantly.
 That's the way she gets even with me for all my crankiness, she said. Shades of Simon Legree."
 But she drank the milk obedient- lv, with an affectionate glance at Katherine, and revelled 90 frankly in her coffee. that the little nurse

The incest way 10 begln hOl weather dinner is with chilled course. This may be of fruit or chilled and iellied bouillon. A chilled fish cocktail may, of course, be used if preferred. but since fish is bit hearty" it may well be served later in the meal
 Any fruit cocktail must be thor oughly chilled and very cold when served. The fruit should be cut neatly and never be crushed CT broken. If juice is wanted it should be strained before adding to the cocktail. Never make cocktail too sweet the tartness of the fruit whets the appetite and too much sweet ness defeats the purpose of the con- coction,
 Cherry Cocktail
 Two cups sweet cherries, one-half cup orange juice, two tablespoons chopped and blanchod almonds, one tablespoon powdered sugar.
