he never made good. Suppose she sat
in judgment on him lateri Suppose
she regretted the step she had taken:
But she was so sWeet-so sweet
and she loved him. He couldn't be-
lieve it, and because she was i'll, he
didn't want to try to show her what
it meant to him, but just the knowl
edge of it was more than he could
bear.
Then he felt her warm lips on his
hair, and she was lifting his head to
look into his eyes.
Her own We're smiling.

Tom"
Her slim hands cupped his face as
she leaned to kiss him. 1t was a
long kiss, but it was kiss of con-
secration rather than passion. Tom
thought of it later as something al
most holy And when he went back
to his shabby studio, he paced up and
down like a Gagged lion.
What ought he to do first? He
wanted action. He wanted imme-
date money. He had dreamed too
long, and this was the result. This
beautiful girl loved him, was willing
to marry him and he had nothing to
offer her.
Nan in her tiny Greenwich Village
apartment had sunk into a sweet

For a moment he was silent. Pride
rode its barrier of steel between them.
Neither spoke.
Then he went down on his knees
beside the bed.

Miserable as she was, Nan felt the
hot blood of youth rush through her
veins. 1t stirred her pulses, it made
her heart beat fast, it drummed at her
temples. Tom loved her.
She could hardly trust herself to
speak. After a moment she said very
shyly, "Well?"

Some Types.


It is a curious fact that toward mid
die age the people of any one part Of
the country grow to resemble each
other, so that a welltraveled and OBJ
servant man could tell easily from
which general district any new ac-
quaintance halls. The middle-aged
women of Philadelphia look very much
alike; that is, enough alike to fall into
one type which could be called Phil
1adelphia matron. "a very nice type
it is, too.) 1t is quite a different type
from that of the Middle West, from
that of the Far West, from that around
New Orleans, from that of New Eng
land, so that, if a woman from each
of these sections of the country were
together in a room, a complete stran-
ger, if he'd travelled, could tell where
each one came from.
The Philadelphia is more placid,
as a whole, than the others, the West
ern woman has a sturdiness about
her, the Southerner a restfulness and
poise, the Bostonian an animation
greater than the others. Yet, set
them all in Europe, and any European
would say at once, American" before
he'd heard their voices or their speech.
And no doubt. he'd think they all
looked enough alike to be sisters; in
fact, dozens of Europeans have said
that all American women resemble
