A tear trickled through her lashes ‘| and splashed down onto the keys of her typewriter. Spasmodic breaths began to tear at the girl's slight frame, and her head went forward on her arms, and Prudence burst into an uncontrollable passion of weep- ing. Farewell to her hopes, farewell to the dear, delightful studio were embodied in her grief; and the horri- ble feeling of failure crowded it all. One by one her manuscripts had been returned to her. They were far “Your characters are ethereal, not Hill's business manager, and when 1 had read your play I found something worth while in it.” Prudence managed to smile through the excitement that was now flaming in her cheeks and sparkling in her mud—just sufiicient to make them earthly,” James Henry laughed, and Prudence joined him. “A mighty good one at that” laughed James Henry. “So don't faint—or anything—when I tell you that I have a sum that runs over the ten-thousand mark for you. 1 put your play on, and it has been run- ning to crowded houses through South Africa.

You will write & story then.” “But I do not see the mud,” Pru- dence had bemoaned within herself, “nor did my father write about mud spattered characters—yet he was suc- cessful,” she had argued in imagina- tion with that editor. “But your father was a man, and a man's life touches earth more fre- quently than does a woman's.

As it was, the soft pres- sure of her fingers was tingling up his arm. “We, of course, are collaborators?” Prudence stated, rather than ques- tlolned. ‘As a manager I can not have my name flaming on all the biltboards,” said James Henry. “But since a col- laborator is what you require—I want the other half.

Unquestion- ably, there is no better remecy for hair and scalp troubles, especially premature grayness, than Sage and Sulphur, if properly prepared.
