By JEAN DICKERSON, | window of the Woman's KExchange ' and regarded the display of toothsome , dainties with appreciative eyes, Ilaky pies, rich loaves of cake, pyramids of airy biscuits, fat loaves of breud and all the spare corners lcoking little cakes in endless variety. In the middle of the window was a long platter heaped with and white, “Just the thing for Priscilla’s birth- day party,” decided Priscilla’s broth- er and with the thought he stepped through the door and took his place among the customers lining the coun- ter. deftly upon the seekers after home- cooked viands, Neal found himself following every movement of the younger of the two girls. Kair and slender with flashing brown eyes demurely veiled by thick durk lashes she was an alluring sight. white dimpled chin and such delicate- ly curved pink lips curling upwards at the corners and of such fine, bronze gold hair tucked behind pink ears, Now the reality was before him. He ! determined that none other than this fair maiden should minister to his wants. But she was wuiting upon a man standing beside him, “"Oh—the sugar hearts?” asked the girl pleasantly, and she went to the window and before Neal's agonized glance she counted out four duzen of the heart-shaped cakes—until there was only one left on the plattesr! The man took the cracking paper bag of sugar hearts and paid for them and went his way. Neal was aware that the girl was speaking to him, “What will you have?’ she asked. “Sugar Hearts,' hoping that there the pink and white cakes. "1 am so sorry—the last have just been sold. “There's one left,” said Neal, rather stupidly. She was so wonderful he | could not let her go. The dimples came into play and the corners of her lips deepened. “You wouldn't want that—one?” “Yes, please,” said Neal dizzily. She brought him the sugar heart twisted in a tiny bag. “live ase,” she gaid dewmurely y her a five r bill €0 c¢h her while she rogis ount on the cas Ut him a hundiul of sil- | 5 1 could order come of hearts,” he ventured as he lun «d to go. ‘ rtainly you can” She breught l'mln a book and |(.N d a pencil over [it. “How man Yo ; “Five dozen.

Priscilla was small and dark and brill'antly lovely. “What are you carrying in that ab- surdly careful manner?” sghe asked mischievously. Before Neal covld protest she had captured the tiny bug trom his gloved fingers and was peering at the loncly sugar heart. “Well, \'t:nl \\uul on—of all the sentimental ¢ what—" Between exclumations Pri-cilla was exawining the pink frosted dainty, “It's a gample,” said Neal sheepish- ) b LA igar heurt. 1 saw | in the windo 1¢ lixchang | have ordercd five dozen tor your { tomorrow nigiit. 1 brou | for you to U (1] | home tomorre it “You ordcred Wcodson, ) hug yo *1 can =end said Priscilla ght this home bring them live dozen? » a dear! 1 must Mary down after them," when she had releascd up a protesting hand. “No BCT r—1 caid 1 would P m—I don't mind way home.” “Very well, ve—ry—well, goothed Priscilla with suddenly me eyes and she darted away into the | drawing-rcom and waltzed airily up to | the lonug mirror, “l wonder—I wonder- len wasnt there today?” at her charming reflcction The next day Neal closed his desk at the usual hour and went to the Wo- man's Exchange.

When he went downstairs the long rooms were full of laughter and merri- | ment for Prizcilla’s guests were choos- ing partner: 1eans o heart-shaped , cards that exactly matched. Neal noticed that each guest put his or her hand into a bowl and drew what- i ever luck came uppermost but before i he could reach the crowd around the men's bowl Priscilla thrust 1 pink paper heart in his hand and waved him away. | “Go find your partner, knave,” tarts. He! she i ordered and Neal groaned for he be- lieved that had been assigned to some | walltiower. He read the motto on his | eard: “Will you be my heart's de- | light?" That's mean of Priscilla— suppose it should chance to be that dark eyed, skinny Miss Wicks? So he emerged from the dancers iand found himself before an alcove given over to a shaded seat and a mass of greenery. Somctimes fate is kind to lovers; therefore, when Neal paused in the al- cove and stared incredulously in was because his beautiful girl was sitting there—a veritable Queen of ITearts in rosy pink and white and holding a pink card that matched his own. When she saw him she blushed. “Oh, it is too bad of Priscilla,” she protested as he held out his hand with , his token in its grasp. “She wouldn't let me draw a card.” “Too good, you mean,” he said warmly and sat down beside her. After awhile, when conversation lan- guished, Doris Allen asked demurely: “What ghall we talk about, ‘Cabbage and Kings?" Neal shook his head. “No, let us speak of the Queen of Hearts and how she came to be selling sugar hearts— and I'll tell you the rest some other time!” He whirled her away in an enchant- ing waliz and they quite forgot the tray of sugar hearts in the alcove, But the sugar hearts had served their humble purpose—that of making two people happy.
