castle remark to the daughter Of u
millionaire
The shopgirI felt indignant, but said
nothing. She. however. braced up and
continued displaying handkerchiefs
until her arms almost developed
cramps. The task was hopeless. Prac-
tically every design OF handkerchief i'm

the beautiful creature could not be
pleased.
Perhaps it isn't handkerchiefs 1

serted. show me something else.
Let's see your stock of gloves
The shopgtrl grew hot with the
flame OF anger. She almost lost cura-
troll Of her temper. but she remember
ed the promise made a few days be-

| forced a smile. Then she began on

/ Then she left. while the shopgirl
| turned up her nose in a fit Of anger
/ and intense hatred.
| a half hour later the woman in silk
| climbed a winding staircase of one OF
| the city's cheap roomiug houses. She
| opened the door Of her dingy one
room apartment and fell sobbing
| across the bed.
| Say. Lucy. what's the big idea9"

and sister in shopdom. why the
sobs? Cheer up, I got a. raise to.

Lucy Graham alias the woman in
