I I made up my mind to do a really awful thing when I went to the Hay- The.-igors' ball. I am the only daugh ter of one of the richest commoners in England. I came out two years ago, and I had not been out very long before I began to have offers. I once read a book called "How Men Propose." Some day I shall, write a sequel to it. I am competent to do bo. What's more, I could add a chapter to say how women do it, too, when they are driven to desperation, though that part is a great secret. I am not exactly a beauty, but I do know how to dregs. A woman who has that knowledge and the means to use it needs no more. I think I can say without vanity that my eyes are good. They are gray and spark ling and long, with very curly lashes.. Yet there are plenty of jeal ous people who say that it is. only "les beaux : yeux de ma cassette" that make me popular. I do not care any more. I am idiotically hap by because I know perfectly well that in the eyes of one man I should be just as charming if the "Bellfield patent", had never "revolutionized the cycling world." I .quote an advertisement, but, though we advertise, we are not vulgar. Indesd, grandpa was a younger son, and did not work for his living, preferring to drag up his family on a small allowance. Papa's tastes were different-, luckily for me. He being. merely a' younger son's younger son, the family dignity had dwindled and hardly seemed worth .while supporting at such pains. \ So - Saranna " Bellfield is a catch and might have married a lord — two lords and a knight's . eldest son, though "that is beside the mark. My BdmireTfl said ' I was cynical, for sometimes I laughed at them. I couldn't help It. I decided at nine teen, that! had no heart, and that THK. SAINT PAUL DAILY GLOBE: SUNDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 17, 1895— TWENTY -FOUR I^AGE& would accept the first. really eligible, party that came along. It sounded j easy. It was easy, until I went into I the country to stay with a friend of mine, married to a clergyman who was an honorable — as well as mere jly revernd. I was sick of being j the Miss Bellfield. I persuaded my | friend to let me be a cousin of hers, , down at Cherrington-on-Tarn. She ;is a good, easy soul. His reverence i had gone away to a conference. I j overpersuaded her, and— well, I had a lovely time as Miss Kitty Bent. : > It was such an innocent sort of name. I took no maid, and dressed the part to perfection in pink ging | ham and muslins. Cherrington-on j Tarn is a very quiet spot; the season ! there consists of two school treats | and a flower show. At all three I melt the one man. ' .''■;* --| He was the doctor's son at home on a holiday, and he fell in love with jme directly, I thought. He is tre mendously clever; they think all the I world of him in his hospital. He is good-looking, I thank.;' He did not propose to me, though there were op- portunities. Jessie was absorbed with baby, and she had '•. no idea • how often Miss Kitty Bent met Hugh Maydwell. ' .'," yy '.yy* -' <iyy *' At first I did It for fun, but. When I got back to London and Maj. Peile- Farquharson began * to, be attentive, then I knew how much happier Kit- ty Bent was than Saranna Bellfield. I did not give way to my feelings. I rather hated to realize I had any. House surgeons of big hospitals !do not go into society I dare say they flirt with the nurses— things! — but 'that is all. Then Maj. Farquharson came on myl horizon, very young to be a ma- jor at all, and very handsome. His manner to me was perfect. 5 Luckily I found out how" utterly selfish he was; otherwise as Dr. Maydwell had apparently entirely forgotten Miss Bent. * * * Mamma is a dear, kind-hearted thing, and when I an- nounced that I intended to go to Mrs. Hay-Thesiger's with that hor ; rid little Mrs. Ewart Vane, she let me do it. I told Maj. Farquharson ! to be there; then I told mamma he * was going. It was naughty, but one ; day I got Mrs. Hay-Thesiger to give me a blank card for a friend of ours, ; and sent it to Dr. Maydwell. I ■want- I ed him to see 'me in my glory, and I \ wanted still more to see If I should , like him in a ball room as much as at Cherrington-on-Tarn. I went wear- I ily at work. I wrote a short note j with the invitation; said I should j be there, signed it K. Bent, and ■ •wrote on plain paper with no ad- ■ dress! '. -- j" Very bold and unwomanly, but * I what was I to do? I knew he liked ! Kitty; if Kitty, why not Saranna i Catherine? It was his awful pride ; and independence I dreaded. He had j told me very meaningly that he j would never ask a woman to mar- ry ; him till he could give her a com- fortable home. He • never appar ently contemplated the possibility ■ that she might have means to sup- ply that. ''- . There was a lovely rose at Cher rington in the vicarage" garden, Reve dor. I used to wear the buds in my white gowns. I got a dress for the ball of their exact shade. I wore one in my hair, quite in the old heroine style that has come back again, and I had a very simple posy ; to match, instead of carrying Maj. ! Farquharson's big, rather vulgar erection of orchids. . y'y -"I; There were not five people who were in society at Mrs. Thesiger's. But the ball' was thoroughly well done, andy except Maj. Farquhar son, no one appeared to be at all sensible of the fact. There was a girl there who lived quite near his mother in the country; the two fam ilies were" intimate, I knew. The - girl was not very young any longer, though she was certainly pleasing. • She had few partners, and I noticed that when Victor Farquharson passed her with a smiling bow she I . looked disappointed. Years ago that girl had had what people call a dis ! appointment. She had loved some one who did not love her. Perhaps 'she was all the more pained by the ! marked neglect of an old friend. 1 ' saw a touch of sadness in her eyes, j and it made me realize sharply that j the attentive cavalier who was ask : ing so humbly what I would give him had no real good nature. --!'.- I I knew by signs that he meant to ! be even more empresse than usual. j He was so handsome that sometimes , my heart had beaten quite fast when he . had made love .. to me. He was I standing beside, me with that de , voted air he can put on so well, when I suddenly saw Dr. Maydwell. He : looked older and rather jaded; neat enough, but certainly not fashion- j able at all. He was very grave when i he saw me. I suppose the young per- ] son in radiant golden brocade was. riot quite the same as Kitty in her j Liberty; hat. He just glanced at' Maj. Farquharson, and was ob-' viously going- to pass on without* ! even asking me for a dance! Then' jt flashed across me that he had, found out, and that he was angry. He looked quite stern. I dismissed- Maj. I Farquharson • unmistakably: "Ten and eleven, if I am here." •" ' I did not care for his annoyance. He had made Ellic'e Wedderburn' unhappy, and he was showing Mrs. Thesiger how exclusive and superior,, . was, by being thoroughly use-, less. Just to make me a Peile-Far-; quharson by marriage would be a I supreme honor, he j evidently imag- Ii ined." ; My own opinion was rather different. I was not going to' pay orchis hunters and other amuse ments in exchange for that dubious privilege. y- - y yyy.y '**• ■-■- Then I held out my hand to Dr. Maydwell. "Have you forgotten _me altogether?" ; 'He did look stern; but it* rather became him. - ..-.,," j "I expected to meet a lady who is not , here, Miss' Bellfield," he began very coldly.; "This sort of thing Is not' much In •my way, and I think -I- had : better say good night. I could not re- , a chance of meeting Miss Kitty ' Bent again., but as. that is Impossible, the sooner I get back to work the bet ter. ./It; was absurd of me to come at all." "•"■■'■- "" '■'"" :-y ' ■ "■ • X They were just" beginning ' the Barn I dance, with that irritating, persistent . tune. I fixed my eyes on the swaying ! figures, some *of them bo awkward. j There was a lump in my throat, and I j really couldn't speak. The remem brance of the river at Cherrington, and j the sunshine on it, came across me. Ha had looked so brown and so cheer : ful in his canoe; he was so pale, and so evidently indignant now, that I could I hardly get the words out. I had never j been afraid of a man. before. I was I now. He evidently quite meant what j he said. -.Cv-yy..;. . .-. . . .... :. . , "If I ask you to stay and sit out the j Barn dance you will, surely. . I — l i want to tell you something."

It .was he who be ' gan, after a.ll, to the inappropriate ac companiment of the barn. dance music. •^J,^p you were playing in a little com edy, down at Cherrington, and the Miss 'Bent I knew was a purely imaginary person?

"The one was a simple country girl, full of pure thoughts and high ideas. She was as poor as I am; we met on the same level.'

Quite suddenly I knew that I loved ! him; that nothing else in the world j mattered, because I knew he loved me. ' How did I know? Oh, I can't explain, but I did. I grew bolder.

Down at Cherrington"— '~-i ~ "Down at Cherrington the village gossips might have fancied that a pen j niless doctor . had .been. .Indiscreet enough to ask a' penniless girl to wait for him for an indefinite number of I 'years; they - were just' as far from I the truth,* probably much further.'.' I . ., All my . security vanished. I felt wretched— - wretched that my eyes were full of tears; one even fell on the . roses iri my hand. , He saw that tear, but he was just as obdurate, just as angry; apparently not even relieved to hear I was free, when I might have been Lady Sandeliion but for him. ' I- don't care what I did or what I thought. "She would have waited all her life." **'*" ryy:* y How I got out those seven words I •wander still. More tearts fell as I said, them, and there was an awful silence.

You force me to. tell you that I love you, not to. put the foolish question that has but one answer." > . ••_' . / - ' Then I : revolted once for all against the tradition of what is maidenly and right. "Hugh, -can't you Understand, must I tell, you that all my money is .nothing to me and that I only want you?" He told ' me later that It was too pathetic, that he had always dreaded to see a' woman cry. But he kissed me, and somehow it was all perfectly right -and natural. Half an hour later. Just as .we were so happy, that horrid Maj. Farquhar- son came for his two dances. "Take cafe of my roses till No. 12, Mayd well," I said, "and come here then to find me." .-, You see. I was reckless, and I wanted the major to see how* things wore. Hugh took the flowers obe diently and. went off. Positively they had, put in another barn dance. Maj.' Farquharson -wanted to sit it out, but I knew better. He must have been ob tuse not to have guessed. I felt so utterly content I thought everybody would notice my face. • We danced. There is something hopelessly unsenti mental, about a Barn dance. I was in mad spirits now. ; Mamma and papa are dears. arid. quite manageable; there would be scenes," but I should have my way. In the .end. Providentially the Mavdwells aire of very old family, and mamma, who. came of no family at all, so to speak, Is very particular on that point. "Hugh's mother had a ped igree that would bear the most search- * Ing . scrutiny. ' : 2°, face the Parents was a minor affair, indeed, after the awful ordeal I had come through. My partner was very gloomy. He did not respond to my liveliness, and was as stiff as a poker in the dance. He took me into the conservatory In the Interval, and I let him say his say. He said it most condescendingly. Lord Sandeliion had been careful to let me realize what an honor he was doing me, but even he was nothing to Maj. Farquharson. I listened with a sort of satisfaction, and then I refused him. point blank. . I had no want of fluency in this case. but I have never seen any created being look as amazed as he did. I am no scalp-hunter, yet I absolutely rev- eled In the prospect of telling Hugh of this occurrence. | I glanced up at him and added coolly: The fact is, I am engaged already." "That being the case, there is noth- ing more to.be said, except that you have behaved heartlessly to me." He tried to put on a disconsolate air, but it was a dead failure. I smiled: "You never cared for me, so I need not say I am sorry; you must have a wife who will admire you, and I never did." He was very angry, but far too dignified to show it. And I went back to Hugh. . We were married at the end of the season, and I am the happiest woman in England. 1 thought I would write this in case any other poor girl is bur- • dened with a fortune, as I was. I read a story once about proposals from ladies. One girl in it told her friend that "it simply wasn't done."
