So it seemed to him as simple as that! few personal mementos and take the first train Cora chewed her pen dolorously. Her leaden. Compared to her swift-moving I and commonplace. It seemed as if all her as counselor and helpmate, had somehow failed. It hurt her to the quick that he should even have mentioned her clothes, have bid her “smarten up” under Wanda Laurence's expert advice and shopping guidance. Wan- da seemed always being thrust upon her in some way. And the worst of it was that there was nothing unlikable about Wanda. She really wanted to be friendly and helpful. Cora felt irritated without knowing just why. Suddenly her body stiffened, her lips compressed themselves resolutely. She began writing as though aunimated by some inner force slow to arrive, but, once there, clear and compelling. She started a fresh letter, com- mencing this time “Dear David: The great and sweeping change you di- rect in your letter cannot be brought about. That is, not in a.flash, as a drop is lowered on a theater stage or a scene reset. “At the risk. of angering you, I must show you my side of all this. And I think my side has enough common Sense in it to make you pay it heed. “Bver since you jolned that expensive club I have felt uneasy about our finances, our future—and our habpiness, David. The men in that swift and fashionable set are earning twice our income. Their wives spend fortunes in gowns, jewels and amusements. Those men have been in business many years, whereas you are just beginning. “Don’t accuse me of being unambitious. You know soul for your growth and power and success. nor timid. But I have striven so hard to conserve things, Davy! A woman should do that. Women are the natural conservators. “I have kept expenses down so that you should have a substantial surplus when a good chance came. I have followed fashions sensibly rather than faddishly. I have furnished our home unpretentiously but appropri- ately and oh, so lovingly, David. BEvery rug, every chair and picture means something to us both. Every stick of furniture has been bought with a view to its quality and service for needs that should steadily but slowly grow. f“Don’t you see, dear, that the men in that crowd you are following, whose fortunes are solidly built, have become rich by normal degrees? That is what I am pleading for, Davy—normal progress. I fear this sud- den pulling up of stakes, this casting of our whole future on a single throw. Why not test omt your land development scheme first? Thén, if you are satisfled of its safety, we will take the upward steps. ““As for my grand new plumage (which Wanda will help me select, you .| thoughtfully add), it may seem glorious and dignified to a man to come crashing into a brand new residential suburb of a brand new boom town in a glaringly new outfit of clothes, manners, ambitions and ways of Hving. But to me it seems all wrong, unstable, insincere, unsafe and in pboor taste. I should not be myself, but some brand new person, unnatu- ral and ill at east. “I am not criticising yau, dear. Your ambition and enthusiasm are splendid! But have they not over-stimulated you a bit—made you a little blind to safety? Try out the plan, my dear, while I stay here in the home we have so carefully made and so lcvingly fitted to serve us in the long, but steady upward climb we had planned, and wait until things are test- ed.

I heard a wheezy chuckle the front of the stalled automobile in which I sat.

His | words seemed like insufferable fa- miliarity, but I realized that he meant no offense. I felt a foolish little relief, however, at hearing that the woman Dicky had embraced so rapturously ‘was in reall Mrs. Durkee, the mother of Alfred Durkee, of whom I had heard Dicky often speak. She loaked so like a girl that I had not realized at first who she was. As Dicky set her down he caught her arm and rushed her down the | path toward the gate. I saw that she. was older than she had looked at ! distance. The lines of maturity and experience were in her face, but it puzzled me had any woman possess- | ing a son as ald as Dicky could look | so girlish and youthful, “Tumble out, Madge,” Dicky said ! as he reached the car.

Then with a caress- ing note in his voice he turned to me. “When you know this little lady Letter, Madge, you'll find out that the words most frequently an her lips are: ‘Won’'t you come and eat with me? " He sang the words in clever parody, then went on more earnestly. “She is the most hospitable little soul in the country, wears herself out cooking for all the reprobates like me that Al knows and brings down to his home. »"And such eat Dicky heaved a sigh that came from his boots. “Nothing like ‘em in this warld.

And what do you suppose she was vain of? Not of her looks, her clothes, her handsome husband, her home, her children, her cooking, or any of these things that the average woman prides herself upon. No, this woman vain of her democracy. She said she was a the core, about her dislike her love of democracy. democracy she demonstrated in two ways—by being painstakingly rude to people whom she fancied thought themselves above her in the social scale, and by going sometimes to the moving picture show and to church with her maid. Strangely enough, her maids were not as devoted to her as one would expect. And Yet Her Maid Didn’t Love Her. Perhaps they were ungrateful, or perhaps—well, I'll let you judge from the following what the trouble was. A maid who had once lived with this woman came to live with a neigh- bor of mine. Her former employer’s name was mentioned one day by my neighbor who admires her and the ald did not seem enthusiastic. “Don’t you like her?” asked was) democrat to and she was always talking of snobbery, and And this my Imitation Democracy | her it was to go about with me. “It Doesn’t Pay to Be Nice to Them.” My neighbor was indignant. She thought the girl was ungrateful, and she said that it showed it didn’t pay to be nice to them. She told the inci- dent to me to substantiate the fac And I wasn't convinced. In fuct I felt a deep sympathy for the maid. | Would you care to go about with | ahyone who made you feel how kind and condescending they were to go with you? Is democracy gives people that The truth is that self-conscious | democracy is just as futile as any kind of self-conscious goodness, Any form of virtue for which you are inwardly patting yourself on the back is robbed of its chief value, True Democracy Does Not Condescend, True democracy comes from the heart. It does not manifest jtself in rudeness to social superiors nor in condescension to social inferiors It loves all human beings, it resents the cruel inequalities of lot, it longs to see equal opportunities, but it does not pretend that all men are equal in character, education and ability. It disregards false standards of money, ancestry and rank, and judges, if it judges at all, by standards of true worth and real breeding. I think snobbery is the democracy it feeling ? yhen hardest neighbor. The maid was non-committal. “She was always very nice to you, I thought,” sald my neighbor; “took you to moving pictures and things like that.” The maid reddened. “Yes,” she sald, “I suppose she was nice, and I know she thought so. She made me fault in the world to conquer. It seems to be almost an instinct. There are few of us who do not have our moments of snobbery, in thought, if not in deed.

I think the less you have | to do with your neighbors in a wii- lage like this the better you will get along with them.” She smiled so ingenuously as she uttered the little paradox that Dicky laughed aloud, and I could not help returning her smile, although I felt anything but mirthful. At every turn I seemed to meet some vague sugges- tion concerning Dicky and his beauti- ful model, Grace Draper. Even this cld friend of Dicky's, I was almost sure, knew something of Dicky’s studio which was shut out from me. “Youre a wise little geck.” Dicky patted her shoulder caressing- ly. T frowned invaluntarily at his slang, but Mrs. Durkee only laughed. “You haven't changed a bit, re you, Dicky bird,” she said in the in- dulgent tone one would use to a child. I had a swift illuminative flash of comprehension of Dicky's character. He was the eternal bay, this husband of mine. Lillian Underwood knew it. I recalled her words of warning con- cerning him as we exchanged confi- | dences by her library fire. And this other old friend of my husband's evi- dently recognized it. I had felt it before, but never so strongly as at this indulgent tone used toward my husband by a woman I had never seen before.
