He bad poured forth his soul in pas

and trembling as he wailed for her re

Hndnes9 as she answered him. hut It
was Arm and there was no trace of
passion.
"No, Arthur," she Raid, "it is Impos
sible. 1 like you very much as a
friend and I respect you and admire
you, but I do not love you and 1 can
not marry you.1.
The color left his face and the lines
3rew tight about his mouth.
"You must, Nellie," he exclaimed
fiercely. "I love you so much you
were made for me 1 I cannot give
you tip."
"But I do not love you," she said
gently. "And you surely would not
want a wife whose heart you did not
have."
"Yes I would," he rejoined, "I want
you on any terms. 1 will make you
love me. I will And a way. Only
marry me. that's all."
"Now be reasonable, Arthur," she
urged. "You have so much sense gen
erally that it Is most distressing to
see you go on in Hiieh a ridiculous
manner. You will get over this no
tion of yours in a little while and will
find some other girl just suited for
you and I will be a good friend, a
Bister to you always."
"Oh, Lordy, not thnt," he broke In
making a comical grimace in spite of
his distress. "It's too horribly trite
and commonplace. lie a niece or an
aunt or a grandmother anything but
a sister. It makes me feel like the
hero of a short story. The girls to
whom they pronose always become
sisters to them."
She blushed a bit and then smiled.
"See," she said, "you are joking about
It already. You'll forget all about it
In a fortnight."
"No, not in a fortnight," he replied
gravely. "Nor in a lifetime."
"Yes. you will." she replied smiling.
"You are no Judge, yet. Men always
think their first love affair very trag
ic. This is your first uffair, is it not?
Yon you never were in love thnt is,
thought yourself in lovo with any
other girl, did you?"
He ehot a quick, sharp glance at
her and the sadness in his face was
replaced for an instant by an expres
lon of mixed shrewdness and deter
mination well known to his business
associates, lint this was only a (lash
and the sadness returned to his face.
"Yes, there was another," he re
plied softly, ga.ing reniinisceutly into
the fire.
She stnrted Imperceptibly and look
ed at him searclilngly. His eyes were
Still on the fire and she bit her lip In
vexation at the Involuntary feeling
she had displayed.
"Was was it long ago?" she asked
In a disinterested tone. "You never
spoke of her to me."
"Yes, it was some years ago be

spoke of it because It is a closed chap
ter a sacred chapter, and I never
cared to resurrect it."
His eyes were still soft and dreamy.
"Where was It." she asked as indif
ferently as possible after somo mo
ments of rather awkward silence.
"In Michigan," he replied. "Ut'ore
I came south."
Still the dreamy eyes fred pn tho
fire. The girl moved uncomfortably
in ber chair. She resolved lo end the
conversation, percelvliii her danger,
but curiosity or whatnot was too
strong.
"Was she tal or short?" she asked.

"Short," ho answered with some

The color faded from Nellie's face
She felt unreasonably hurt and angrv
at the man and the northern girl.
"Was she light or dark?" she nskei!
as though possessed to drink the vir.i

rose and her lips were like the rarest
coral." Nellie was dark with Hashing
black eyes and an olive skin.
"She she must have been very
iKinutiftil." whispered Nellie, her lips
quivering.
"She was," he answered, "and as
good and true and sweet as she was
beautiful."
"You must have loved her ve.y
much," faltered Nellie, fascinated by
the light, which shone in his eyes as
be contemplated the vision in the fire
place. "I did love her very, very tenderly,"
he replied.
"Did she love you?" asked Nellie
after a long pause.
"Most passionately," he replied,
"The parting nearly killed both of us."
"Why did you rart?" asked the girl,
leaning forward eagerly.
"Her father resolutely opposed the
union," he replied slowly. "Ho was
an invalid and she thought it her duty
to defer to his wishes and remain
with him and care for him. She
would not listen to any waiting or my
part, but renounced our happiness
once and for all."
Nellie had risen and now stood
close to Arthur with pale, face and
frightened eyes.
"Is her father still alive?" she ask
ed. "No." he replied, "I read of his
death only the other day."
"Why do you not go back to her?"
she faltered.
"You ought to know," he replied,
rising and looking down at her ten
derly. "The old love Is dead and a
new one lives In its plaee."
The color swept back to her face as
she asked hysterically: "Are you
sure you love me as much as you did
her?"
"More." he exclaimed passionately,
as he held out his arms appealingly.
She nestled herself within them and
sobbed, hysterically, as she flung her
arms about his neck: "I suppose a
woman has a right to change her
mind."
"Once, but no more," he answered.
And the girl did not dream that the
perfidious wretch was saying to him
self: "First prize to me as a scientist
romancer."
And she never knew that the plrl In
Michigan was a myth born of the ne
cessities of Arthur's courtship.

Three da. later he went to the

Lavender Ball.
Stalks nnd (lowers or the old time
weet herb, lavender, have been made
Into something very charming, by the
artistic woman of today. To do It,
she gathers the flowers on stalks
about ten Inches long, drying them
carefully. Then, tubing a hunch of
stalks an Inch In diameter and press
ing them closely together, she turns
the (lowers Inward at the top, forming
a ball and weaving narrow green sat
in ribbon in and out between the stem
lets, a dainty basketllke top is formed.
Tho ends of ribbon are then wound
closely at Intervals around the steins
until their ends are reached. A
length of ribbon ut this point and one
at the flower end is used to suspend
the "stick," and long loops of ribbon,
forming two tassels, are hung on these
suspending ribbons, still further beaut
ifying this fragrant lavender bull.
Pretty Cloth Waist.
Blouse of light weight cloth made
with groups of
plaits nnd trimmed
with narrow bands
and motifs of em
broidery. The but
tons are of the ma
terial and the
chemisette of lace,
the standing collur
finished with n
turnover of velvet,
of which the girdle
Is also made.
The full j-leeves
are finished with
cuffs of the mate-
bordered
wlth the trimming,
which flare over lace ruffles.
Velvet Suit Still a Favorite.
The velvet suit promises to he as
much a favorite this year as last and
lis new suppleness renders it extreme
ly desirable for autumn wear. A mod
el which Is suited to stout and thin
alike has a coat of slightly Mousing
bolero effect, entering a deep pointed
girdle of satin. At the center of the
back the seatn of tin bolero lengthen
over the girdle into a plaited pes'ilioii

skirt. light-colored broadcloth em
broidered in French knots and son

No Season at All.
This Is the time of year above all
others for weird clothes combinations.
The woman who owns a new fall suit
insists on wearing It even it the sun hi
hotter than midsummer, while she
who has not el arranged her fall out
fit clings to her white linen in spite
of the cool breezes that sweep the
town In the late afternoon. New fall
hats in the riotous wine reds, purples
and mulberry rhades are worn with
lawn frocks of lust .Inly, and while
canvas shoes peep out from a new
plaid wool skirt in a shamefaced man
ner. Somo women wear white linen
frocks under long ulsters of fall
weight and otheis sport their sum
mer coats of white duck or linen over
dark cloth skirts. Snrtorlnlly the sea
son Is betwixt hay and grass, ami the
American woman's reputation as the
best dressed in the world is having a
pretty close shave.
Color Schemes for Little Ones.
Judging from lute Parisian confec
tions for youngsters, the popular col
or schemes this full show lliut youth
ful mixtures of black ami while set off
by velvet collar and cuffs in bright
colors, and a peculiar shade of bluish
gray have taken precedence over the
many shades t;f brown worn last year.
Hark blue, always such a satisfactory
color, has a brilliant rattier than a
dead hue in this season's model coats.
Bright olive green is also u favorite,
particularly with collar and cuffs of
fur, and for the child who takes care
of her eloihes. there is no color better
milted to youth mid beauty than a
light shade of tan.
Pretty Hats For Children.
No mutter what its futo In the fash
ions of grown ups, the larpo hat will
always rimain the most artistic for
tho child's face. There Is no lovelier
simple hat than a large white felt with
huge Alsatian how of wide ribbon di
rectly across the front. One model
trimmed In tills manner has the how
held at the center by large braid rings,
and the hat Is shaded to the face by a
narrow facing of velvet underneath
the brim. Itlhlxin streamers both In
velvet and silk are also seen on these
large hats at the hack.

Hats to Be Smaller.
The coming hats are gradually grow
ing more and moro elaborate, and tho
quality of the material, whatever it
may lie, whether velvet or lace, is be
coming more and more important.
Tlilx year the hats are unusually hand
some, though they are not so extreme
as they were last year in some par
ticulars. The big bats are not so big.
at all events they are not so exaggerat
ed as they were. In fact, the small
hats are still popular, although mil
liners are rebelling against them and
binding them down with plumes and
trimming to give the effect of largo
bats.
Picture hats will no doubt continue
to he worn this year, though they are
certainly smaller than they have been.

Princesse Wedding Gowns.
The princesse gown Is always new
and nlwnvs a favorite model for a wed
ding gown, and this season In particu
lar, when It is modish to have the
front of the bodice dialled. It is far
more becoming than heretofore. No
trimming Is necessary on cither silk
or satin that Is, on the skirt, while a
lace yoke and dainty, cobwebby lace
rullles on the sleeves are all -sufficient.
If 11 more elaborate effect s dosiicd,
then an embroidered design is woiked
out in silk and seed pearls; but some
bow the plain, rather severe slvlo, that
relies only bpon the beauty of the ma

smarter and more effective.
