In fact anything that can be written can be better written with a Waterman’s than in any other way. And there are reasons. Waterman’s fountain pen is the best foun- tain pen ever offered to a discerning public. The hard rubber holder is light, stainless and feels fine when you're writing. Every holder is scientifically balanced. This makes easy writing a joy. ‘Waterman’s holds a lot of ink and may be filled quickly. ‘Waterman’s No. 7 is the newest and most Ethel’s Poet. &« H, Ethel! You're not going fo wear that tonight!” i Irene stared at the home- = made blouse unbelievingly. | “I_certainly am,” stoutly defended Ethel, her blue eyes snapping at her friend. “Why—why—you've just no idea how hard I worked making this biouse!” | . The barest suspicion of tears stood in | | her eyes and she straightened up as | though to control herself. | ““But where did you ever find a pat- tern for a blouse like that?” Irene | asked. | “Oh, I didn't get a pattern,” Ethel answered carelessly. “I just cut it out by guess.” «By guess or by gosh!” joked Phil, 's brother, who worked in the same | “By guess or by gosh, | She cut the thing out. | They drowned her at dusk "Neath the water spout.” “Oh, scat along with you, Phil!” sald his sister. and upright in the correct posture sug- | gested by all of the efficiency experts as | the least tiring position for the stenog- rapher. Mechanically she read her notes and transcribed them. Was Phil only joking when he made up that silly little poem? Or was he by any chance serious? She would not have admitted to any one on earth just how much she |dld admire Phil. In the first place, he was no girl-chaser, as most of the men | in the office were. At least, in Ethel's experience, most jolly, fun-ioving men were. And Phil made on the average a joke a minute. When this office. party had been announced, for instance, she | wondered if perhaps he would ask her | to go with him. He hadn't. Now she sat there rigidly, wondering | if it were because her clothes looked so |funny. At 3 o'clock she left the office and went to the washroom, where she took a good look at herself. At first she looked grim and then a pretty amile | curved her lips. How could she—how could any one with good sense?—have cut nice material up into any such botch as that blouse was, now that she |saw it with disinterested eyes? It was| | funny to look at, with bulges where it should have been flat and flat where it might have billowed out a little. She tried to put it into shape, and as she turned to go out of the door glanced back with her usual caution to make sure she had dropped nothing. | "There on the floor lay her little snowy bag that she always kept pinned inside | her_blouse ‘with her savings. | Darting back, she snatched it up. Apparently in patting the shapeless blouse into a semblance of style she had loosened the pin. With an awful wrench, Ethel decided. The minute work was out she would race over to the avenue and buy a good blouse, and —she took a deep breath at her own daring—maybe some other little things she needed, too. Why, she might as well, she decided. She might very easily have lost all the money she had. ‘When she sat down to eat her dinner in the cafeteria where she and Irene always ate at noon she was surprised to find Phil taking the opposite place a moment later. He glanced instantly at her new blouse, and then at the smart little hat she had bought to go | partly to himself. But long after the others had settled | collar,” he grinned THE EVENING STORY dragged out by force, and so she started her dinner with a little smile instead. “Y'know,” he sal T thought maybe you were stingy, Ethel. I can say it now that you're all dolled up with your new doll rags. But, you know, if there’s anything I fear it's a stingy wife. A stingy wife won't give a man enough to eat, and he has to get extra meals downtown, worrying as to how he'll ac- count for the shortage in his money. And if he gets himself a decent suit, such as a fellow has to have if he's going to make money, a stingy wife'll fret and fume about that.” He was eating and seemingly talking He did not notice Ethel's color come and go. He appeared to have forgotten her completely. But through Ethel's head his words were running like s Spring brook over peb- bles. Why was he mentioning to her the subject of a wife? “Well, do_we powder our noses or something before we start for the party?” he asked when they had fin- ished dinner. “Oh, am I taking you?” asked Ethel sudacfously. “If you can find & nice-looking dog “I'm not a fancy | police’ dog or anything like that, Ethel, to work for the afternoon Ethel 8¢ 1) trot along neatly without pull- typing at her desk, sitting well forward | ing the leash.” And beneath the joke Ethel could hear a little note of serfousness in his tones. ‘THE END.
