then known as hacks and there were
private tandems which lent q dashing
effect. The happy day having ar
rived, what bliss there was in dis
cussing the beaux and bellies and the
tinsel "fixings"l The party dresses
of that day were Of Swiss muslin with
q double skirt, and also of material
called tarlatans, of varying degrees Of
quality. often displaying long trains
trimmed with satin ribbon and braids.
Whether the material was white or
some of the reds. pinks or blues, they
were lovely creations.
The men were busy making living
and the days pleasure often emptied
their pocketbooks, but it was consid-
cred we'll worth while. Now and then
a pair of shoulder straps doomed
among the callers and filled to the
climax a day long to be remembered.
These recurring gayeties naturally
gave the country village something
to talk about and there was demand
for better raiment for men and
women.
Information concerning it was well
met by Peterson's and Godey's maya

gestions, which had never before been

When he got to the last part of his
soliloquy he seemed more thoughtful.
A whole volume of things popped
into his mind.
There was LaLand, his bookkeeper,
whom he had criticized caustically the
morning he was late last week. La
Land had taken the censure without
a word, but Marsaye had learned later
that LaLand's wife had been ill and
1t had been necessary for him to be at
home for a while. But LaLand had
not been given chance to explain.
Ought to have done so, suppose.
Then there was Mrs. Melting, who
cleaned his office. He had bawled her
out for a seeming neglect. She had
meekly taken the abuse. Now Mar
save knew that she had had neuritis
in her arm and 1t had been painful
to her to do as well as she had. Fun
ny how things are sometimes, and
fellow not know anything about it!
The time Miss Haseltine. with tears
in her eyes, had asked to go home,
after he had upbraided her for mis-
takes necessitating the rewriting Of
several letters. he had thought
streak of carelessness which he could
not tolerate. He had not known then
that the girl had had a serious quar-
rel with her young man which affected
her almost to the point Of incompe-
tence. But he knew now.

side of the story, too. wonder what

wonder what Sally would think If

am the perfect gentleman, and know

A smile crept over his face and his
eyes sparkled.
In the telephone booth he called
Sally's number.
THAT you, Sally? I have
decided to turn over a new leaf.
l thought that new leaf stuff
was lot of blah, but have been sit
ting here at the club thinking it over.
Well, 1 have found myself
guilty Of impetuosity-of taking snap
judgment without knowing the facts
without enough consideration for 9th
ers. And I want to apologize
to you, Sally. I was wrong and am

Walking to the window, he looked

Seating himself, again he took up

paper lay across his knee as he sank
into thoughtful mood.

PRAYERS FOR THE
NEW YEAR

FOR NIGHT
GET my heart free from Bit
- terness, o God,
Now it is night
Free from those unlaid ghosts Of
hurt and pain
That haunt the light;
Forgive my faults and let me fall
asleep,
Now day is through,
And in unbroken peace abide
this night
Close unto You.
FOR MORNING
Let me not look behind nights
pause of peace,
Now it is day;
With courage and with joy let
me go forth
Anew, I pray;
Resolved that I will strive, as
my strength is,
To do my part,
Each hour with kindness, and
sincerity,
And a high hearth
